"Hmm..."

Why did I even invite Chiyu down to my tiny ass apartment..?! Regardless, I'm just letting her explore my small crib, with her seemingly inspecting every nook and cranny.

"Well, no signs of you being an assassin, that's good!"

"Why should that matter, the police won't be after me either way."

I just let out a sigh before heading towards my room to play games.

"Oh, going to jerk off?"

"What the- No! The nut is for Touko once I get laid with her, I ain't wasting it!"

"Whatever you say, pervert." Chiyu replies as she heads to the kitchen.

"Don't even think about looking through my fridge for food!" I yell out as she disappears into the kitchen. Chiyu is clearly going to go for something, even if she has that expensive ass penthouse.

Sitting down, I decide to continue on NFO, logging in and beginning as usual with the daily grind. Out of the corner of my eye, I see that Chiyu comes in... having taken a drinking yogurt from the fridge.

"Didn't I tell you to not take anything from my fridge?!"

"Why would you have Danonino yogurts then, aren't those for kids?" Chiyu replies as she continues drinking of the small yogurt container.

"What, the strawberry ones tastes great! Besides, it's only lucky these somehow were in Japan as well."

"Nevertheless, I wouldn't expect you to be such a nerd. Like, games, anime DVDs, posters and figurines everywhere! Not to mention that you are desperately thirsty-"

"Well, sorry for being loyal with my hot girlfriend, I guess."

What's the problem?! These are the times in our life where some of us can be the most horny fucks. Hell, if every guy and chick just easily accepted their horny side and not being afraid to show it like animals, school hallways would be filled with loud moaning and janitors would have to take some extra time to clean the white mess.

After some hours of playing and occasionally chatting with Chiyu, I felt content for the day as I get up from the chair and go out into the living room to turn on the TV.

"Nothing else for the day?"

"If you want to jerk me off, be my guest. I'm just going to watch some news."

Chiyu just shakes her head as she takes out her phone and walks away. I soon turn on the TV, a small sliver of me hoping to see something about the assassination on Death Metal having taken place, but nothing.

Absolutely no news about it whatsoever, which heavily surprised me considering how frequently the news anchors loves any new stories going around Japan, but not this time.

Guess they don't care about assassins of other nationalites travelling all the way here just to wait for any lower ranked to fight them.

As I turn off the TV again, I stand up before checking where Chiyu went. Don't want her to start snooping around even more, she has already done that enough.

She will definitely be surprised over that I don't have any sort of gravure magazines laying around, because admittedly, I have never been that horny to actually keep those kinda magazines around.

Heck, even if I do see gravure magazines of Japanese women clogging the shelves at the local 7-11, I just am not interested in such stuff.

I do still like girls and women though, they are always the best, compared to how we boys and men tend to be like. Sure, I might swing both ways, but you'll have to bet very little money on me actually hooking up with a guy.

So I'm glad I met Touko and the rest of the band girls through starting working part time at CiRCLE, even though that part time job is somewhat useless now in terms of gaining money, as the UAA offers me a shit ton of money, enough for my bills, food and any other entertainment.

But I ain't going to ditch my friends just because I have a better paid job now, besides, CiRCLE actually is a legal job compared to the moonlighting that are the assassinations I do.

The assassinations aren't even meant to be a job for me, it's the only way for me to save my parents, but I have a long road to go, so might as well... enjoy this for the time being, aiming to become the top, number one, nummer ett!

Oops, I slipped into some of my Swedish there... Regardless, I should take in this time, it's insanity to have a high schooler otaku just being an assassin when everyone I will clash with are clearly older than me.

I have heard rumors though that some assassins are actually also going to school like me, though only one actually being a high schooler, the rest would appear to be university students.

Can already imagine how much the university freaks will talk down on me once I meet them, but the high schooler will probably also talk smack, they will be an assassin after all, and for us assassins it's kill or be killed.

"Right, looking for Chiyu it was..." I say to myself as I look around, before I suddenly hear my door being unlocked, soon hearing some familiar voices.

"Chu², is... Stephan really okay with you just inviting us here?"

"No I'm not!" I say as Rokka flinches and the others in Raise A Suilen looks at me as I approach them. "The hell Chiyu, I told you that you got to come down here for a little while, not invite your band mates!"

"Well too bad! We will spend the rest of the evening with- H-hey wait!"

I were fed up with Chiyu's bullshit, so I carry her from under her arms and put her down outside my apartment, before I slam the door shut and lock it.

"Hey, what the hell! Let me in, LET ME IN!" Chiyu yells out as I ignore it and sit down on the couch again.

"Anyways, what did Chiyu tell you guys that made you all come here?"

"Hmm, well... She did tell us you wanted to company, but that definitely doesn't seem true." Rei says as she smiles apologetically at me.

"Oh no, it's fine, you guys were still kind off you. Besides, I don't often invite Touko here, both because we don't find the time all the time, and also because most often we, uh, almost do... lewd stuff together."

Yeah, while I love having Touko over, our urges soon takes over and we have to stop ourselves. Not that we don't want to do it, but it will feel more special once we have been together more and longer... though I still hump her, which we both are more than satisfied with for now.

"You two are awfully attached." Masuki says to me as she is drinking on a Pepsi- Wait!

"Hey, I did not allow you guys either to look through my fridge!"

The next day, I make my way to school as usual, saying my hello to all my classmates. But during lunch, a very unlikely person comes up to me.

"H-hey... I've wanted to speak with you for sometime!"

It's the shyest guy in our class, he tends to be just as quiet as me, albeit I can talk for hours if I'm spoken to, though having been for some time with the band girls has definitely made me ease up, especially Touko, with her overall bright persona, wonderful encouragement and massages, and occasionally showing me some of her-

"Stephan, are you... okay?"

Ah shit, I forgot about the shy guy! No, not the Super Mario enemy, the green haired guy in front of me!

"Yeah, I'm okay, don't worry." I tell him as he brings out his phone.

"Have you seen... Pastel Palettes..? I... might've overheard you actually starting to work at CiRCLE, so I wonder if you possibly know about the band."

Ah crap, that band, huh? They stalked me last time, and I'm pretty sure they still do.

"Yeah, I know about them."

"C-can you help introducing me to them..?"

"Wha, me? Tough luck but, uh, they hate me!"

"Wait, hate you? Hate... you?"

Suddenly he seemed to get furious, before grabbing me by my collar. Seems like someone is protective of their pastel idols...

"What. The. FUCK did you do to them to make them hate you?!"

"Alright, geez! Let go of me, I lied!"

Fucking fanboy psycho, always so protective of girls that just see them as strangers.

"O-oh... But why lie, I thought you had hurt them!"

"They hurt me more than I ever could do to them."

"...What..?"

"Okay, listen here! I will introduce you to them, deal?!"

Look, I love talking to people, but this guy clearly ain't well in his mind for obsessing so much over some singing idol girls!

"Yes, I'm going to meet Aya Maruyama!"

"What's your name by the way, green hair?"

"Naozumi Fuji, Pastel Palettes' future husband!"

The fuck is wrong with this guy..?! He hasn't even met the idol band's respective families, and now he claims he is going to be the husband of them. Just what the hell did my dumbass sign up to right now...

As school ends, I begin walking with him to the talent agency, but I ain't going to let this Naozumi creep think he can straight up harass the members of Pastel Palettes.

Man, I'm sure the son of a bitch has the same fantasies as me times ten, because he clearly has a hard ass erection right now while keeping on muttering about the names of the idols in Pastel Palettes.

Not even I get that horny, even though I do admit I get lost in my fantasies about Touko at times.

As we reach the talent agency, I look up on the tall building, before I almost flinch from what I suddenly see.

By one of the bigger glass windows, I can clearly see Aya, Chisato, Hina, Eve and Maya all looking out the window right at me, their expressions varying greatly between each member.

Man, I shouldn't have added them on Snapchat as well, they are clearly using that map thing in the app to trace and track me down and observe what I do during the day. I better get them unfriended as soon as possible, and as harsh as that is, I do not have the time to have love ill girls following me in secret when I literally already have a girlfriend!

"Here it is..!" Naozumi says as he is almost drooling at this point. Jesus christ dude, really taking being thirsty as fuck to a whole new level, huh?

Me and Naozumi soon enter the talent agency, with the receptionist, Ririka, giving a smile to me as she recognizes as being that guy Pastel Palettes trusts a lot, before looking with a neutral look at Naozumi.

"Hey Ririka, I hope I'm not interrupting anything!" I greet Ririka as she just giggles and shakes her head.

"Oh no, don't worry! In fact, Pastel Palettes actually wanted to call you in here because they really want to meet you and speak to you, you see!"

Meet and speak with me, my ass, they will just try toying with me just because they have such a high status as an idol band. Once again, I don't have anything against idols, but those are clearly more looked upon than god damn assassins.

"Oh, by the way, can I bring my friend here with me?" I ask Ririka as I show her Naozumi, with her almost getting uncomfortable.

Yeah, no surprise she can easily read Naozumi's intentions as well, but she soon reluctantly nods, before Nagisa almost rushes towards the elevator.

"Don't worry Ririka, I will make sure he doesn't do anything with the girls."

I soon head and enter the elevator alongside Naozumi, as we press the button for the main floor, where Pastel Palettes should be at.

"Really just taking advantage of me to meet your favorite band in person, huh?"

"N-no, I actually have been interested in making friends with you like everyone else in our class, I just never saw any chance until now to do so!"

Ho boy, wonder how true that'll be once we meet up with the girls. Either way, I can't let him begin harassing Pastel Palettes and think he can claim them like they are mere trophies or something, that's too fucked up.

If he tries anything on the girls, I will for sure give him a huge slap on the face, perhaps a fist in the face could work as well.

"Right, here it is." I say as we look to the door with the sentence "Pastel Palettes practice room" and a do not disturb sign hanged up, and an additional text on it saying that only approved visitors are welcomed in.

Technically, Naozumi did come along with me inside so Ririka could register him as well as a fellow visitor, but I still don't think the girls will like having him around so much, even worse so if he actually goes for doing the shit I think he will be doing.

I take and knock the signal Chisato learnt me the other day, apparently so it would be easy for them to know when it's me that have arrived. A good idea, but it has creepy intentions behind it.

Soon enough, Aya opens, jumping out of happiness and almost going for a hug, but I stop her by planting my hand to her face, albeit not too hard. I don't want to hurt them after all, they haven't done anything to me yet, and hopefully never.

"Oh, who's this?" Hina asks as she arrives as well by the door while looking at Naozumi.

"A friend of mine, Naozumi Fuji. He wanted to see you guys." I tell the idols as they one by one arrive by the door opening.

"Well, let him enter as well then." Chisato says, slightly distraught while looking to Naozumi. Guess she also can see the absolute thirst Naozumi is showing.

"Oh man, Pastel Palettes..! My goddesses!"

"Get it together." I hiss at Naozumi, not wanting him to scare the girls.

"A-ah no, it's fine! A lot of fans calls us 'goddesses' after all, hehe~" Aya reassures, but she clearly were uncomfortable with Naozumi already.

But man, couldn't Naozumibhave looked more like eye candy and be better in personality of him so Pastel Palettes could've gotten their interest in him instead?

Heck, I wouldn't stop him from getting the attention of the other band girls except my girlfriend Touko and maybe Morfonica for that matter. I'm not a freak that for some reason loves and gets hard over NTR, that shit should be abolished from anything ever!

"I hope we did not interrupt anything." I say to Pastel Palettes, hoping that we did not come to a wrong point in time, they seemed to be practicing considering that they had a bit sweat still running down here and there, but they all were shaking their heads, indicating that we can enter no problem.

Naozumi seemed to be enjoying seeing idol sweat though. Ugh, not even I tend to be so filthy of me.

Once again, I can certainly not deny that I can myself be a pervert at times, Chiyu is not wrong. But I don't act like a creep with everyone, or just claim I am the husband of an all-girl band, like what Naozumi is doing. Marrying Touko one day would be lovely though...

"Stephan, why do you get so lost the whole time?! Can't you see that Pastel Palettes is in front of us?!" Naozumi suddenly berates me, making me snap out of my thoughts again. Like, come on man, can't I get some peace thinking about something else?!

I decide to not respond to him as we close the door behind us and walk inside the practice room, with it having a big mirror, which Naozumi decide to muscle pose in front. Tch, as if he even has anything going on with his muscles.

"It's so fun seeing you around at the agency, we have so much to talk about after all!" Aya says excitedly before looking to Naozumi and then back at me. "When did you two become friends?"

"Uh... quite recently, really." I tell Aya, not wanting to give away that Naozumi isn't actually a friend of mine, he just happen to be a horndog taking advantage of me.

Just wait until it all backfires at him, he will be a sorry loser afterwards.

"So, uh... how are things between you and Touko?" Aya soon asks me, making me surprised. Because I certainly didn't expect her to be curious about my relationships.

"As amazing as ever, she is a real national treasure after all, love everything about her~" I reply, just letting all my thoughts about Touko sink in again. "Dunno what I would do or be without her honestly."

"I see, as close to her as ever, haha..!" Aya says, trying her best to hide away her clear disappointment.

Geez girl, just find someone else, I'm not interested in you, end of story.

"Hey, hey, want some cookies, Stephan?" Hina suddenly asks me as she walks up to me with a box with some cookies in it. "They are leftover ones from Sayo who got them from her band mate Lisa! Careful now, I might've splashed love potion over it~"

"That's actually fucking childish, knock it off." I sharply tell Hina as sweatdrops appear on her forehead.

"Vulgar as usual, hehe..." she replies before cheering up again. "Anyways, please do take the whole box, we have already eaten enough!"

"Are there chocolate on them?" I ask her, making Hina look at me in confusion.

"Eh? Oh, no chocolate, how so?"

"Then I don't wanna-"

I suddenly feel someone smacking me on my head, and out of impulse I take and grab the one who smacked me and do a pro wrestling move on them from what I learned after watching some online videos on how to fight better.

"Bada BING!" I yell out as I smash the person into the floor over my head before I get up myself. "No one, and I mean no one takes and hit me in the fucking head!"

"Ow, ow..."

Turns out it was Naozumi that smacked me, probably because I declined Hina's offer to have a box of cookies.

I look to the girls in Pastel Palettes and see them look in shock at how I suddenly reacted towards Naozumi's slap on my head.

"You didn't see anything." I tell them as I help Naozumi up again. "Hmm... Well, how about you take and fess up why you wanted to come here, eh?"

"Huh, what do you mean? That I wanted to come here and propose to Pastel Palettes and feel up them all over- Oh no wait!"

Thought so. After I had slammed him so hard against the floor, he for sure would get a little dizzy, and look at him now, accidentally confessing his true intentions to the idol girls he so admires.

"B-bastard, you used my possible brain damage I have now from your dumb ass to make me say what I came here to do! I wanted to wait!"

"Propose to and sexually harass us, huh?" Chisato says as she looks at Naozumi with one heck of a deadly stare.

She soon looks with a normal expression at me and smiling, before nodding.

"You can go home if you want to Stephan, it was a pleasure having you around here! As for Naozumi... let him stay."

"Sure thing Chisato. Well girls, this is my farewell and he's all yours to lecture!" I say as I push Naozumi a little forward before Eve and Maya takes a hard grip on him.

I soon make my way to the door and exit, before I hear Eve talk on the other side.

"We don't use violence here, it's no good! But in the name of Bushido, you, Naozumi Fuji, deserve extreme punishment!"

"S-Stephan, hold on- W-wait, what are you doing with that wooden sword- OW MY HEAD!"

After that, I soon hear him being hit several times and yelling out in pain as he is clearly being obliterated by Pastel Palettes. Well, he got his wish with being close with his idols, did just not go his ideal way though.

I suddenly hear my phone having gotten a new message, and as I look, it's from Touko:

Touko: Heeey sweetie~! Want to come home to me later and watch a movie?

This does put a smile on my face whenever I see Touko send me a message.

Me: You got it ;) I will arrive ASAP

Touko: Great~! We can make some popcorn and then make out under a blanket during the boring parts lol

Me: I wouldn't have wanted anything bigger or grander as long as it's with you, any date with you is amazing because you are amazing

Touko: That's it, I'm going to absolutely smother you with kisses yet again as you come here! Pleeeasey please come soon, I miss you <3

My body is more than ready to come home to you, Touko Kirigaya my beloved!

2 hours later...

"Mmmmhh~!"

Touko nor me couldn't do much other sounds or talk as we were too busy making out. Man, her lips always feel so soft and is just the best to feel it all over my face as well at times~

Soon after we sat up again on the couch and with the movie having ended long ago, Touko were napping by resting her head on my shoulder and embracing me as I looked at the internet on various things, before I got a message from none other than the UAA:

"Your next target is Dr. Peace. You will find him at the nearby stadium when the times comes, we wish you luck."

Crap, time for another assassination- huh, another message from them?

"Don't forget that this time, you have to pay an entry fee in order to fight your next target. The invoice is ¥150,000, please pay as soon as possible. Have a good day."

E-entry fee..? On how much..?

"150,000 yen?! What the fuck?!"

Touko wakes up from my sudden outburst before looking at me.

"W-what's wrong Stephan? Something happened?!"

"Touko... The money I get from part timing at CiRCLE and assassinations won't be enough for this..."

Filling her up on the details, she becomes just as shocked, but regardless understands why I need to do this.

"Well, I could ask my parents about giving you some money, they are quite fond of you after all-"

"No babe, please do not involve your parents in my assassination business!" I tell Touko, as I do not want her or her family to come to harm in anyway or form. "Anyways, there is probably something I can do, I'm sure of it. Anyhow, let's search up on this bastard named Dr. Peace."

I look up once again via the UAA's website, and yet again find the one I am looking for: Dr. Peace.

Aw crap, another guy with guns? Well, I kinda know how to deal with this kinda situation from when fighting Helter-Skelter, but you never know what tricks these assassins has up their sleeves.

"I just... hope you will make it back this time as well..." Touko suddenly says to me, having a distraught expression. "I don't want to lose you, never ever!"

I look at Touko for a moment before embracing her tightly.

"And I never want to lose you either. Hence why I am doing my very best at this."

Touko suddenly pulls me onto the couch, before she gets on top of me and begins kissing me all over. Hell, I'm sure that at this point we will do it soon enough, but...

I also hope I will be able to spend the rest of my life together with Touko, she is the best thing to have ever happened to me after all. And if what happened to Kokoro's family is anything to go by, I will have to protect not just Touko, but the other band girls and anyone else I come close to.

All this crap just because I need to save my parents, but I can't just disregard them either. I do hope I can just go back to a normal life and spend way more time with Touko and my friends after all this bullshit is finally over.

To be continued :P
