The Issue With Her Arrow Pointing at Me Being Way Too Big
“Good evening.”
“Good evening, Amato kun… What’s up? You’re being so polite.”
“I’m always polite… It’s about tomorrow. Could you wait near my place?”
“Huh? Isn’t meeting in town fine?”
“No, I’ll come pick you up. I don’t want anything to happen.”
“I’m flattered… but aren’t you worrying too much?”
“Worrying too much can’t hurt, right? It’s our first time going out together, and I’m feeling my way around too… Plus, Ayaka seems like the type to get tangled up in trouble.”
“What do you mean!?”
“Anyway, I’m worried. Let me come pick you up so I can feel better.”
“…Yeah, okay.”

Last night, I felt a little guilty about being a bit pushy.
I had planned to discuss the meeting spot at night, but I’d originally intended to pick Ayaka up at her place.
If it weren’t for the situation with Nakazato, we probably would’ve just met up in town like normal. But I couldn’t be sure the hate directed at me wouldn’t turn towards Ayaka… Still, this is all just me wanting to feel secure.
“Yeah, it’s just me wanting to feel secure.”
“O-okay, I get it! Ah~ uu… I’m happy, but it’s kind of embarrassing…”
Ayaka, walking beside me, flushed and looked down.
I’d worried about running into Tokui or Nakazato, but we managed to meet up smoothly.
This was our first time meeting up on a holiday, and I thought I’d be nervous, but surprisingly, I wasn’t. I was actually surprised by that myself.
(…Seriously, this is way too sexy.)
Honestly, I’d underestimated Ayaka.
While she usually blends in completely in her uniform, this outfit felt worlds apart from her everyday self.
A tight white shirt that couldn’t hide her curves.
Hot pants that practically screamed “look at my plump thighs”… I was a bit surprised Ayaka would wear something like this.
“Doesn’t suit me… maybe?”
“Huh?”
“It’s getting a bit hot… but that’s not all. I thought this might be okay standing next to flashy Amato-kun.”
“…So that’s what you were thinking.”
It was clearly a literary girl fashion that looked like it would get cuckolded in a doujinshi, but she chose this outfit because I was here… I see.
“Well, whatever… It’s not like it doesn’t suit you. It’s just… not what I’d expect from your usual uniform look… Um, I think it looks really good.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.”
I couldn’t exactly call it sexy, but this was fine in its own way.
Though I’m not exactly dressed flashily myself… I mean, just a plain shirt and shorts, right? Not a shred of style, but my big frame and flashy hair make me look like a delinquent.
“Then… I’m glad… hehe.”
“Why are you laughing?”
“Ahaha, sorry. It’s just funny hearing words like that come from someone who looks like you, Amato-kun, and seeing your concerned gaze.”
“What do you mean ‘funny’?”
“I mean I feel this huge gap. Like your comebacks, and just now when you asked why I was laughing.”
“…Oh, right.”
“Ah, that too, I guess.”
Everything about me is a gap, damn it.
But thanks to this exchange, the tension in her shoulders seemed to melt away. After we met up, the nervousness she’d been showing completely faded.
“…Well, I guess that’s fine.”
“What is?”
“Nothing. Alright then, let’s go~”
And so, I headed to my regular gym with Ayaka in tow.
As expected, Ayaka’s figure… especially her massive breasts swaying with every step drew a lot of stares. That’s just how big her chest is.
“…”
“Hey, it’s fine if you stay by my side.”
“Ah… okay.”
Sasuke had taken me to meet all sorts of people over the years.
Whether that sharpened my observational skills or not, I used my body to block the stares directed at Ayaka, or even from a distance, I’d lock eyes with someone and intimidate them if I thought they were trouble.
Incidentally, Ayaka seemed to notice what I was doing, because she’d been holding my hand the whole time, never letting go for a moment.
“This is the gym I go to.”
“…This is it.”
It’s a fairly new gym, opened about three years ago, so the building is quite clean.
Takamiya Fitness Club—I forget if it’s part of the Takamiya Group or something, but it’s run by a fairly large group and apparently makes a lot of money.
“Let’s head straight to the front desk.”
“Uh, okay!”
She seemed nervous, but there was nothing to worry about.
I’d been here many times before, so I knew the receptionist and was also acquainted with the instructors.
“Welcome~! Oh, isn’t this Kannagi-kun!”
“Hey, good morning. I’m here to use the gym again today. Could you handle this girl’s membership card and everything else for me?”
“Oh, what a cute girl… Could she be your girlfriend?”
“Th-that…!”
Girlfriend… Setting aside the pointless thought that just because she’s a female friend doesn’t mean she’s my girlfriend, Ayaka was completely flustered.
The receptionist seemed to feel so guilty about it that she immediately apologized and processed her paperwork.
“I’m so sorry… I’m just weak when it comes to young people like this!”
“You get like that when you get older—”
“Did you say something?”
“Nope, didn’t say a thing! Alright, go change and meet up with me, Ayaka.”
“Ah, yeah! Um, thank you so much!”
Talking about age with women is a no-go… gotta be careful.
After that, we each changed into workout clothes in the locker rooms and met up… but even the workout clothes were tight and incredibly sexy.
Well, mine’s tight too… This tank top’s gotten small lately. Guess I should buy a new one soon.
“Wow… Incredible muscles.”
“Wanna touch them?”
“Huh? Really…!?”
“Sure. Let me show you proof of my growth.”
Ayaka immediately started patting and touching my body.
…I did think her touch felt a bit suggestive, but since it was Ayaka, I decided not to mind.
When we arrived at the training room, there were quite a few people using it.
Naturally, eyes of varying degrees were drawn to Ayaka, but once again, I became a wall to protect her.
“…In a way, maybe it would’ve been better if you hadn’t come.”
“No way! I’m nervous… a little scared, but since you’re here, Amato-kun, I’m totally fine!”
“…Well, that’s good then.”
Well, whatever happens, I’ll just have to put my body on the line.
Alright then… Ah, there she is.
Spotting my target, I raised my hand. She noticed me too and quickly approached.
“Hey there, Amato!”
“Hey, Asakura-san.”
It was Asakura-san, a slender woman with long hair tied in a ponytail.
She’s someone I’ve known since I started coming here, and she’s always looked out for me.
“Asakura-san, looking busy today?”
“Not particularly. Wait, who’s that girl!?”
“…Come on, that reaction is a bit much.”
“Ahaha, sorry, sorry.”
I sighed at Asakura-san, who stuck out her tongue, and placed a hand on Ayaka’s shoulder as she cowered behind me.
“Ayaka, this is Asakura-san. She’s been looking out for me since I started coming here.”
“Nice to meet you. I’m Asakura Sayo. Pleased to meet you?”
“Ah, yes…! I’m Otonashi Ayaka… Nice to meet you!”
Wow… she’s super nervous.
But Asakura-san is a really kind person, so Ayaka will warm up to her soon enough.
“Could you show Ayaka around? She’s probably used to it since this is her second time, but there are rules and such.”
“Understood. Don’t worry, Ayaka-chan, I’ll show you everything gently.”
“…Please…!”
“…This girl is seriously adorable!”
See? I knew Asakura-san would like her.
Still, since it was Ayaka’s first time, Asakura-san seemed to take that into consideration. She stayed right beside me the whole time, explaining the facility to Ayaka.
Ayaka probably felt reassured having me nearby, but she quickly opened up to Asakura-san and started smiling.
“So, how’s it going?”
“U-uh… yeah… I can still… keep going!”
And now, Ayaka and I were side by side on the treadmills.
Even light weight training had Ayaka exhausted, but just running like this, she’d lasted quite a while… though she looked pretty worn out now.
“Wh-why… do you still… seem so… fine?”
“I’m used to it by now… Seriously, you can take a break if you want?”
“Just a little more… I’ll push through a little more…!”
Both Ayaka and I were drenched in sweat.
Given this kind of facility, Asakura-san had been watching Ayaka’s first-time experience intently the whole time, and I was paying attention too… but it was about time.
“Alright, let’s take a break, Ayaka.”
“Huh?”
We stopped the machine and paused, but Ayaka’s legs buckled.
Of course, I caught her before she fell… but ending up pressed against each other, both drenched in sweat, created an indescribable situation.
“Haa… haa… Amato-kun?”
“Yeah… Sorry, Ayaka, holding you like this all sweaty.”
“…No, it’s okay… Actually… Ehehe♡”
Ayaka lifted her face, looking delighted.
Her hair was plastered to her skin with sweat, and she looked a bit teary-eyed from exhaustion… but the smile on her face radiated an incredible sensuality.
This… If she were alone like this, someone would definitely approach her.
Plus, her usual quietness was completely gone now, and Ayaka’s feminine charm was fully on display… Nakazato had said something like that too, but maybe he just found Ayaka attractive and approached her?
“Good job, you two. Are you okay, Ayaka-chan?”
“Y-yes… I’m fine.”
Thanks to Asakura-san sticking with us afterward, Ayaka seemed to have a fun experience at the gym for her first time.
After spending time at the gym, we were walking outside.
“…Ah.”
Walking straight toward us were Tokui and his friend.
Ayaka and I were holding hands, just like when we headed to the gym.
