Chapter 160: Catching up
(A/N I'm back... again!!!
I just want to tell you that
I'm never gonna give you up.
I'm never gonna let you down.
Never gonna run around and desert you.
...
I'm not sorry.)
(Ryoto's pov)
I caught up with Rio and Kaede after Karma and Nagisa went home. To be honest, I missed them, and I'm genuinely happy to have them here.
Rio: "So you will be our senpai now?"
Ryoto: "Pretty much."
Rio: "It will take some time to get used to it."
Ryoto: "Tell me about it. Just a year ago, or should I say two years ago, I was a normal guy, and now I'm successor to the galactic empire."
Lala: "I'm home!"
We heard Lala entering the home, and soon we all saw her walking into the living room. Lala, however, wasn't alone.
Seeing Rio and Kaede, Lala's smile bloomed more than usual.
Lala: "Rio! Kaede!"
She jumped at them and hugged them tightly.
At the same time, I was jumped on by someone else.
Alme: "Ryoto!"
Alme started snuggling with me.
Alme: "Why are we jumping on people?"
She titled her head, and I gave her a headpat without answering her question as I was focused on the happy reunion.
Rio: "Lala, I missed you too."
Kaede: "Did your boobs grow?"
They both returned the hug with a gentle smile, but Kaede was still unhappy, feeling that Lala's boobs had gotten bigger while hers didn't change even a little.
They stayed in the hug for a while, and Alme seeing the situation, didn't say anything. She could understand that the unknown girls were important to Lala. That or she was in bliss because of the headpats.
Knowing her, it could be either.
After Lala broke the hug, she started talking like crazy, trying to catch up with them.
Lala: "So much has happened since the last time we saw you. I need to tell you everything! I met new people and-"
Rio stopped Lala.
Rio: "OK, calm down, Lala. We aren't going anywhere. We are, after all, going to live here."
Lala: "You are?"
Rio: "Yes, and while we are on the topic..."
She turned to me, who still was pacifying Alme.
Rio: "...Do you want to introduce your friend to us, Ryoto?"
She was smiling. At least part of her found it amusing, but her eyes were telling me that one wrong word and I could say my balls goodbye, which is strange since we haven't even slept together.
The day that my fianc met my girlfriends came earlier than I thought, but I'm not afraid, so while still caressing Alme's head, I answered.
Ryoto: "Kaede, Rio, meet Alme. She is the sister of my friend, an alien, and also my fianc."
I took my hand back from Alme's, waking her up from the bliss, and she looked around to see what was happening.
Alme: "No headpats?"
She looked heartbroken by the absence of my hand, but I needed to be strong.
Ryoto: "Alme, I want you to meet someone."
I pointed toward the two girls.
Ryoto: "This is Rio and Kaede, my girlfriends."
No one said anything as Alme Kaede and Rio were observing each other. The tension was rising, and I noticed that Rio and Kaede were ready to grab something from their back pockets. Probably the knife that was made out of Koro-sensei material. Old habits die hard, after all.
On the other hand, Alme was relaxed, but I could notice that she was anticipating a fight, but she held back and gave an approving nod.
Alme: "Not bad. I'll teach you how to be a good girlfriend. First, you need a piece of toast..."
I started patting her again, and she stopped talking. It allowed me to explain the situation.
Ryoto: "Alme is still learning Earth culture and is a bit of a battle maniac. That is also the reason why we are engaged."
Rio: "You got yourself a new fianc in just two weeks?"
Ryoto: "It was six months after Lala and me."
Rio: "I would like to say that it makes more sense, but this whole situation is too weird for that. But I see that you tamed her with your hand."
She smiled mischievously.
Ryoto: "Yep, magic hands and all. Just ask Lala and Alme."
I smirked at her as well, and at the same time, Alme said something.
Alme: "Hehe~ Hands feel good."
Cute.
Rio: "*Sigh* I can't even be mad at you for that since different universes and all, and you couldn't contact us. Besides, Kaede and I are your first girlfriend..."
Ryoto: "Technically, you are. Lala started off as a fianc."
Lala: "That's true."
Lala agreed with what I said, recalling how we got engaged.
Lala: "Then both of you are Ryoto's first girlfriend!"
I don't think that it is how it works.
Lala: "Achoo!"
Suddenly, Lala sneezed and shot a laser out of her tail, destroying the wall. We really need to do something with that. It doesn't often happen as of late, but when it does, the destruction of property follows.
Thankfully Lala didn't hit anyone this time.
Mikan, who was in her room, was already accustomed to Lala's laser outbursts, just shouted.
Mikan: "Is everyone okay!!!?"
Ryoto: "Don't worry, everyone is unharmed!!!"
I answered, and receiving my answer was all she needed.
Rio: "...What was that?"
Kaede: "I think I'm seeing things."
Now that I think about it, they never saw Lala using her tail in that way.
Lala: "Sorry about that. This sometimes happens because of my pregnancy."
She laughed it off and scratched the back of her head, but the news was broken in such a casual way that it took a moment to register inside Rio's and Kaede's minds.
Rio: "I see, I see. It's because you're pregnant..."
She nodded her head a few times with her arms crossed until the message finally kicked in.
Rio: "WHAT!!!?"
She rushed up to me and grabbed me by the collar. Alme wasn't disturbed by this as she laid on my lap like a cat.
Rio: "I knew that you two were having sex but don't you know what contraception is!!!? Can't you use protection!!!? Both of you are only in high school!!!"
Kaede didn't say anything, but her cold eyes said enough for me to understand.
It looks like I have some explaining to do.
