Chapter 34: Exception

(3rd pov)

Everyone was surprised by Rito's statement.

Lala: "Brown?"

Rito: "Yeah. They're dark brown, to be exact."

Lala: "It's strange. Every time I look at his eyes, they're blue."

Lala put a hand on her chin and started thinking.

Risa: "Maybe we should ask Ryoto about it. I mean, he should know the most about it, but..."

They all looked at Ryoto, who avoided Haruna's like fire. He was still sticking to the ceiling, and Akiho was still trying to get him down.

Akiho: "Stop running away!"

Ryoto: "Stop trying to hug me!"

Akiho: "Never!"

Ryoto: "You last time you were near me, I got trauma!"

Akiho: "But you were so cute back then!"

It went like that for ten minutes.

Mio: "Should we help him?"

Risa: "What?"

Risa was already sitting down and watching the ongoing show while eating snacks. She was also recording the whole event with her phone.

Risa: "Mikan's going to love it."

Rito: "Maybe we really should help Nii-san. I've never seen him panic like that."

Rito worried about his older brother. Ryoto, while he was distancing himself from the family, still acted like a dependable brother.

Lala: "Oh, I know how to help!"

Lala took out her dial-kun. It looked like the standard phone, and it worked like one, but unlike the traditional phone, it uses dimension technology that contains her inventions which she uses to 'call' upon them.

This time she took out a bazooka-like weapon. It was Sticky-Gooey Launcher-kun, a huge cannon-like gun that shoots a really sticky goo substance.

Lala took aim and shot two times. Once at Ahiko and the other time at Ryoto. Akiho was glued to the wall while Ryoto dodged effortlessly. After landing on the floor, he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Akiho: "Ryo-chan, if you wanted that kind of play, you just needed to say~."

Ryoto: "To this day, I don't know you're not on FBI's watchlist."

He then turned towards the group.

Ryoto: "Thanks Lala, but why did you also shoot at me?"

Lala: "I thought that if you would get a chance to talk with her, then you would get along with her."

Cute, but not possible.

Ryoto: "You spend too much time with Private, but now that it's over, we should get going, like right now. Sorry for the trouble Haruna-San."

Risa: "Wait for a second. How about you explain this whole situation to us."

Ryoto: "As much as I would love to do just that, I must, unfortunately

refuse it.

Risa: "Maybe 'this' will change your mind."

Risa showed her phone. It wasn't open or anything, but Ryoto instantly understood what she implied. He even almost opened his eyes.

Ryoto: "No..."

Risa: "Yes."

Karen: "You must admit she played you like a damn fiddle. I'm impressed. I should step up my game, so I won't be outmatched ."

'Please don't...'

Ryoto: "*Sigh* Fine..."

Ryoto clearly didn't want to talk about what happened in the past, but he still obliged (was blackmailed into doing what she wanted).

Ryoto: "During my middle school, I had a difficult time with a lot of things, so I decided to start confessing to girls to release my stress."

Risa: "Stop right there. Why did you decide on that? Many more methods don't require doing something so embarrassing."

Haruna raised her hand shyly.

Haruna: "I would also like to know."

Ryoto: "Don't question a young Ryoto. He wasn't the sharpest tool on the shed. Now back to the story. I was confessing to many girls, but I was choosing only the ones I was sure would reject me. After all, I wasn't looking for a girlfriend, so my targets were girls with boyfriends, crushes, or the ones not looking for a boyfriend. My last confession was to the present here, Akiho."

Akiho: "That's me!"

'*Sigh*'

Karen: "Remember Ryoto, imagine how you'll break everyone's bones. It'll calm you."

'It only works for you.'

Ryoto: "To my surprise, she accepted my confession, and even when I told her that's a misunderstanding, she wouldn't let me go. I thought that would get bored with me soon enough, so I played along for a while, and to my second surprise, we acted like an average couple.

At first, everything was alright. Going on dates, being intimate with each other. Now that I think about it, we speedrun this relationship. We were already kissing after just four days, and Akiho wanted to be even more intimate. She started teaching me some things. We didn't do anything too intimate, but she was pushing it. She crossed the line when she surprised me with something."

Ryoto shuddered, remembering the event.

Risa: "What was the thing that crossed the line! You can't leave us on the cliffhanger like that!"

Ryoto: "Sorry, but I'm really not planning on sharing this, even if you try to blackmail-

Risa: "Ask."

Ryoto rolled his eyes.

Ryoto: "Right, ask me again."

Risa turned to still glued Akiho.

Risa: "Anything to add to his statement?"

Akiho: "Nothing~"

Risa: "Then we can move to the next topic. What's up with your eyes?"

Ryoto: "My eyes, they're as ordinary as they can be."

Ryoto lied as naturally as he breathed.

Risa: "What I meant us Lala claims that your eyes are blue while Rito that they're brown. So which is it?"

Ryoto: "Blue."

Risa: "Prove it."

Ryoto: "Ask Mikan or Mikado-sensei."

Risa: "Open them."

Ryoto: "Only my family and doctor can see my eyes."

Risa and everyone else was confused at what Ryoto said.

Risa: "Why?"

Ryoto: "What you want to see my eyes without being even my girlfriend, you pervert."

Ryoto acted very embarrassedly through the whole sentence.

Lala: "Does it mean I'm like family?"

Ryoto: "Always has been."

Ryoto then hugged Lala, and she returned it.

Akiho: "Awww, how sweet. Now give me a hug too!"

Ryoto: "Did you need to ruin the moment?"

Akiho: "If you hug me, the moment will be enchanted."

Everyone looked at her in disbelief. Even her little sister.

Haruna: "Onee-chan..."

Ryoto: "Well, it's enough of recalling the past for a day."

The group left Haruna's home, but Ryoto, Rito, and Lala were forced to return shortly after because they forgot to unstuck Akiho.
