*BOOM*

*KRAAKKK*

*PHEW* *PHEW* *PHEW*

(Y/n): "ROOM CLEAR!"

Ken: "Moving!"

(Y/n) and Ken exited the room that they were just breaching in and formed up with the rest.

They then proceed cautiously to the last room. Tomioka then prepared his Door banger and with all his might, he slammed the door hard, splitting it into half. As Ken stormed into the room, a loud bang suddenly heard and smoke began to cover them.

(Y/n): "F***!"

Ken: "ACCKK! I'M HIT!"

Principal: "STOP THE SIMULATION! REGROUP AT THE START POINT!"

The principal shouted from above.

The team grunted and walked to the starting point.

Ryōichi: "You good, Ken?"

Ken: "Yeah. I'm good. That bang is f***ing loud."

Tomioka: "Sorry. I should've checked it first..."

(Y/n): "It's okay dude. We made mistakes and we learned from them. Lets get going with the simulation again."

-----------------

After finishing 4 simulations, the team then went to the armory, where they will be introduced to a brand new weapons. As they entered the armory, they were greeted with a man who supervised the room. He goes by the name...

(Y/n): "Satoru?"

Satoru: "Ahh, Mr. (Y/n). It's been a long time!" He greeted

(Y/n): "It is. Since when you were sent here?"

Satoru: "Just a few weeks ago. So, I take that you wanna see the new weapon?"

(Y/n): "Of course."

Satoru then took a rifle case underneath the counter desk and put it on the desk. He thej opened the case and revealed the content inside.

Satoru: "Your past fondness for the German varietals, but I can wholeheartedly endorse the new breed from Sig Sauer. The Sig MCX and MPX."

(Y/n) took a moment to admire the new rifle that was introduced by the US.

(Y/n): *whistle* "A good looking gun. But how was the performance?"

Satoru: "Currently being used by the Dutch DSI. And they said that the performance is quite decent. MCX provides wide varieties of customization. The same goes to the MPX. You can choose if you want to build Carbine, DMR, or LVAW."

(Y/n): "Ammunition?"

Satoru: "5.56 Nato or .300 Blackout for the MCX, and 9mm for the MPX."

(Y/n): ".300 Blackout? Sweet mother! I'll definitely hit the range with these guns later."

Satoru: "Of course, Mr. (Y/n). The guns are yours."

(Y/n): "By the way, do we get the rubber bullets version?"

Satoru: "Of course. It comes with two version."

(Y/n): "Good. I don't want to kill the students with real bullets if anything goes wrong."

Satoru: "We don't want that either..."

---------------------------------

(Y/n) was seen in school, walking in the school hallway with a hint of tiredness on his face. He and his team had spent 4 hours in the simulation trainings before.

(Y/n): *F***ing tired.... I had to start the project today...*

???: "Hey, look! Its Kitagawa-san!"

(Y/n): "Hm?"

Girl 1: "Marin-chan's such a cutie~"

Girl 2: "Her legs are so thin!"

Boy 1: "Yo, Kitagawa."

Marin: "Morning!"

Girl 1: "Is she a model or something?"

Girl 2: "Yeah, I think so. She's totally on another level, down to the bone."

Girl 1: "She's probably pretty popular, huh?"

Girl 2: "Of course, she is!"

(Y/n): *Man.... She's the center of attention eh... It's hard to believe that she was at my house just this weekend."

Marin: "Ah, (Y/n)-kun! Morning!" She shouted through the crowds. (Y/n) saw her and smiled.

(Y/n): "Good morning." Marin then walked to him in joyful.

Marin: "Thanks for your help on Saturday! I'm one step closer to Shizuku-tan, so you totes made my day!"

(Y/n): "Its fine.. Just doing my best in helping you."

Marin: "Hey, what so you think? I decided to curl my hair today." She asked as she played with her hair.

(Y/n): "Hm? Oh, I can see that. It looks good."

Marin: "I know right?!"

???: "Watcha talkin' about?" Their talks were interrupted by a friend of Marin. A girl with black hair and red stripes tied in pigtail appeared. "Let me join in!" She said while eating her lolipop.

(Y/n): *So... This is her friend..*

Nowa: "Yo! I'm Nowa!" She finally introduced herself.

(Y/n): "Pleasure to meet you. I'm (Y/n) (L/n)."

Then, another two of her friends joined in.

???: "G'morn."

???: "Mornin!"

(Y/n): "Morning to you too as well."

???: "Guess we haven't talked before. Nice to meet ya. I'm Akari."

(A/n: Since I haven't found the names of the rest of Marin's friend, I'm just gonna put a random name.)

(Y/n): "Pleasure to meet you as well. I'm (Y/n).

Nowa: "Want a sucker?" She offered a lolipop, which (Y/n) took it.

(Y/n): "Thanks."

Akari: "No, really. What's going on?" She asked Marin. "He's obviously super bothered. I feel bad for him."

(Y/n): *What? Me? Super bothered?*

Marin then looked at him before went to his side and put a hand on his shoulder.

Marin: "He's not bothered at all!" She then leaned against his side, pressing her assets at his shoulder.

(Y/n) suddenly felt a jolt, making his brain temporarily shut down.

(Y/n): "Y-Y-Y-Yeah, right!"

Nowa: "Hey, Marin. We need to get to the vending machine. First period's about to start."

Marin: "Crap! You're right!"

They then walked away from (Y/n), but not before Marin bids her farewell.

Marin: "See you later, (Y/n)-kun!" She said and waved before following the rest of her friends.

(Y/n): "S-Sure... See you later too."

He stared at her while she was walking away with her friends.

(Y/n): *She still treats me the same way, even when at school...*

Girl 1: "Wait, is she going out with that guy?"

Girl 2: "What? No way! Can you even imagine?"

Girl 1: "I know right?! He's a new guy here and they act like they've known for a quite time."

(Y/n): *........Of course... It attracts unwanted attention.*

-------------------------

As (Y/n) was packing his stuffs into his bag, Marin then slided in.

Marin: "(Y/n)-kun! Hey, hey, listen! After school today--"

(Y/n): "Sorry, Marin. I've got something to attend to. Maybe next time." He said in serious tone as he stood up from his seat and walked away without looking back.

Marin was confused with his sudden act.

----------------------

(Y/n) was seen with arranging his book before puting it back into his bag before Marin suddeny called him.

Marin: "(Y/n)-kun~"

(Y/n) suddenly jolted.

Marin: "So today--" before she finished her words, (Y/n) fastly slides out from the classroom. "Huh?"

Nowa: "Maybe he had to pee."

------------------------

Marin: "(Y/n)-kun?" She shouted his name as she was looking from him at the outside.

(Y/n) was hiding himself next to the vending machine.

Marin: "(Y/n)-kun?"

(Y/n) was hiding on the stairs as she walked around.

Marin then opened the door of the sewing room, thinking that he might be there.

Marin: "(Y/n)-kun?" But he was not there.

Marin: "(Y/n)-kun?!" She was at the school hallway, looking confused.

Marin: "(Y/N)-KUNNNNNN!" She yelled in the gym

She was back at the classroom, looking at the empty seat. She got one more idea popped in her head.

Marin: *He's still in school... And there's one more place that I could find him.*

Then, the bell rang.

--------------------

(Y/n) was seen walking out of the locker room with tired look.

(Y/n): "Man.... I'm very exhausted... Being a team leader really wore me out..."

???: "What team leader?"

(Y/n): "WARRGHH!" He was spooked by the voice and when he turned around, "Marin?! Don't spook me like that!"

Marin: "AHAHAHAH! You should see your reaction!" She said.

(Y/n): "Geez... What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be going home now?"

Marin: "I'm trying to find you everywhere! You're acting weird and keep avoiding me, (Y/n)-kun!"

(Y/n): "Sorry. Got some stuffs to do..."

Marin: "Are you okay? You look very tired, (Y/n)-kun...." She asked in slightly worried.

(Y/n): "I'm okay. Still can stand still...."

Marin: "Okay... I wanna ask if you want to come shopping with me, like, right now?"

(Y/n): "Shopping?"

Marin: "Yeap. I wanted to check out the stuff we'll meed for the outfit."

(Y/n) suddenly glanced over two students on his left. He saw them staring at him.

(Y/n): *........I hate when they stared at me like that.*

Marin: "So, whaddya say?"

(Y/n): "Lets walk away now." He said in low voice and walked out from the locker room fast.

Marin: "Huh? W-Wait! Hello?!" She then ran trying to catch up with him.

As they walked out from the gate, Marin managed to catch up with him and walked by his side.

Marin: "What's wrong, (Y/n)-kun? You looked very tense just now..."

(Y/n): "I'm sorry, Marin..."

Marin: "If you're just gonna apologize, dont avoid and face me!" She slightly shouted.

(Y/n) then stopped on his track.

Marin: "You've been avoiding me today, haven't you?"

(Y/n): "Not true at all... I got some other stuff to do too."

Marin: "Look, if you have problems with me, just let it out."

(Y/n) was silent for a while. His face showed a bit regret of avoiding her at that time just because of what other people said about them.

Marin: "(Y/n)-kun? Are you okay?" She asked worriedly. (Y/n) then turned around to face her.

(Y/n): "Marin... People are going to think that we know each other. Plua, I heard rumors that they think we go out together... And I'm kinda dont like the unnecessary attention... So... Its probably best if you're not with me when other people are around..."

Marin: "Huh? What do you mean?" She asked in confused. (Y/n) tilted his head. "We're already friends!"

(Y/n): "But still... People speculating that we might be going out.."

Marin: "Seriously? Huh...." She then suddenly leaned forward closed to his face. "Then, why don't we?" She asked and smirked.

(Y/n), flustered when she leaned to close to him took a step back.

(Y/n): "Wha-What?!"

Marin: "Ahahahhahaha! Just joking! Come on!" She then grabbed his hand and began to run with him.

(Y/n): "H-Hold up! Where are we going?!"

Marin: "I told you already! Shopping!"

(Y/n): "Seriously?! Like right now?!"

Marin: "Yes! Right now! I can't wait to become Shizuku-tan!"

(Y/n) slowly gained his smiled, amazed by her enthusiasm.

(Y/n): *This girl is something else....*

--------------------

(Y/n): "I have no idea that a shop like this exist..."

Marin: "Eh? How come? This shop is kinda popular tho."

(Y/n): "I only made costumes with Eva foams. So I only went to a shop that sell that kind materials."

Marin: "Right! I forgot about this. Gomen~"

Both of them arrived at a shop called Yuzawaya, where it offered everything that were related to cosplay. (Y/n) was shocked with huge variety of materials that the shop offered.

(Y/n): "Man.... This whole section is only for cosplay stuffs.."

Marin: "I know right? This is a heaven for any cosplayers that wanted to get their stuffs."

(Y/n): "Oh, talking about that," (Y/n) then took out his sketch book from his bag and opened it. "Could you take a look at this? I've prepared the blueprints for your outfit."

Marin then looked at his sketch. Her eyes widen.

Marin: "Holy shit!"

(Y/n): "I made a multi-view design of Shizuku-tan. From head to toe. We need quite few things to make it happen. Fabrics, lace, ribbons, artificial roses, shoes, a wig, fasteners, color contacts, garters, stockings, and then-"

Marin: "W-Wait! Hold up! Holy crap! Did you draw all of this, (Y/n)-kun?!"

(Y/n): "Mhmm. You can see my autograph at the bottom left side of the paper."

Marin then look at it and saw his autograph.

Marin: "This is insane!" She said as she continued to look through his sketch. "The details of every parts are totally insane!"

(Y/n): "Yes. I drawed every important details, even the tiniest details when making a costumes. My aim is to make almost 100% accurate as in the anime, games or any movies."

Marin: "So that's how you made your costumes very accurately?"

(Y/n): "Yeap. Now, for the first step, lets look for a suitsble fabrics."

Marin: "Lets goo!"

Both of thek began to search for a suitable fabrics for her costumes. They reached on a section where it displayed a huge variety of fabrics. As Marin looked through one by one, she spotted a particular fabrics.

Marin: "Hey! I think this one will work"

(Y/n) then began to inspect the fabric.

Marin: "What do you think?"

(Y/n): "No... The colour is not the same as her outfit..." His eyes then landed on another fabrics. "I think this one suits better."

Marin: "Huh? Why? Is there actually a difference?"

(Y/n): "Slippery Girls Academy is an academy for upper-class girl. A prestige academy. So, that would mean Shizuku-tan's uniform reflect that. I figured we should go with fabric that's a bit thicker and heavier, rather than glossy."

Marin: "Oh, I see!" She then went to look the price tag. "Oh.... But it's literally double the price of the other material..."

(Y/n): "Price is not the problem. I got some-"

Marin: "Upupup! Don't use your money, okay?"

(Y/n): "But, do you have any money with you?"

Marin: "Ah, don't you worry about that." She then took out a small envelope from her bag. "Mama went to the bank." She said proudly. "Use as much as you like!"

(Y/n): "Nah. We don't have to use a lot actually. The crucial parts for the costumes is the fabrics. The other thing we can use a little amount since I've seen a lot of items nowadays are cheap but high quality if you know how to find it."

Marin: "It's fine! Just use it, okay? I saved all this for my cosplay by working, anyway. So, dont worry about it, okay?" She insisted.

(Y/n): "Alright. If you insist."

Marin: "Alright! Let's keep the ball rolling!"

(Y/n): "Let's go!"

Both of them continued to look for the items that will be used in making Shizuku-tan's costumes. After they done getting the items at Yuzawaya, they went to the Swallowtail shop to get the wigs.

And once again, (Y/n) was amazed by the huge variety of wigs available in that shop.

(Y/n): "Holy shit! There's alot of wig styles here!"

Marin: "I know, right? It gets you hyped up, doesn't it? I love browsing here~"

(Y/n): "I can see why."

As (Y/n) was looking for the right wigs for Shizuku-tan, Marim called his name.

Marin: "Hey, (Y/n)-kun! I think i found one. Medium black."

(Y/n): "Hm? Medium black?"

Marin: "Yeah. Shizuku-tan has black hair, so lets but this one!" She said confidently. (Y/n) shook his head and playfully flicked her forehead, making her flinch.

Marin: "Ack! W-What was that for?!"

(Y/n): "You didn't fully pay attention to the details. Her character colour is purple, right? Her hair might seem black, but i think if she had a purple tint, it'd see more like her. So lets but the purple wig." He explained as he pointed to the purple wig.

Marin: ".........O-Oh.. R-Right."

(Y/n): ".......So you didn't pay attention to the details..."

---------------

After they bought the right wig for the character, Marim then told to (Y/n) that there was one place left to go before they called it a day. But that one particular place that made (Y/n) felt....

(Y/n): "........ Uncomfortable." He was seen in the lingerie store. Marin told him that this was the last place. He was standing in front of the changing room, with his back facing the room. "Marin, how much longer you'll need?"

Marin: "Hm? Not much longer."

(Y/n): "H-Hurry up... I felt something unbearable..."

Suddenly, Marin peeked her head out from the curtain.

Marin: "Holy shit, (Y/n)-kun!"

(Y/n): "For f*** sakes! Dont scared me like that!"

Marin: "Look! It looks good, right?" She asked as she slightly showed her leg and thigh. He could swear that something was building up inside him. He then quickly closed the curtain, covering her leg.

(Y/n): "You don't know the consequences, aren't you?" He asked emotionless.

Marin: "Huh?"

------------------------

Marin: "That was good!"

(Y/n): "Yeah. The ramen is very good. But you don't have to pay for my meal tho..."

Marin: "Eh? Come on! I really wanted to treat you since you already help me a lot! So don't worry about it, okay?"

(Y/n): "Okay then. Thanks a lot." He said as he looked at the bags filled with materials that he was carrying. "We can begin the project as soon as possible."

Marin: "Are you okay with carrying that?"

(Y/n): "Eh its fine! Its not too heavy, but still manageable."

Marin: "Okay. Thank you, (Y/n)-kun. You're really a big help!"

A random person who was standing in a line, waiting for her turn to enter a restaurant looked at them.

Woman: *A high school couple, eh? Must be nice... Ah... To be young...* She then sighed *Meanwhile, I'm still stuck working...*

Marin: "Oh. by the way, (Y/n)-kun. You've finished all the 'Slippery Girls' game, right?"

(Y/n): "Yeah. I've finished it all."

Marin: "Remember the morning assembly part?"

(Y/n): "Hm? You mean the part where he's up in front of the whole school at the morning assembly amd couldn't stop ejaculating?"

For those bystanders who heard their conversation, they were shocked.

Woman: *What the actual hell?!* She thought as she looked at them. *Why the hell are you talking about that here?!*

Marin and (Y/n) kept talking about that game, without realizing their talk could be heard by several people.

Woman: *F***.... High schoolers these days are terrifying...*

-----------------

(Y/n): "So, I'll take this things back to my place so I can get it draft and begin the procees."

Marin: "Thanks, (Y/n)! I can't wait to wear it! I wonder where I should wear the costume once its done.."

(Y/n): "ACG event can be held at open area or indoor area. Or both. But usually its a big event."

Marin: "Yeap! There's also cosplayers who did some photoshoot outside the event area!"

(Y/n): "Yeah. I've seen several did the photoshoot at the themepark, swimming pool, and sometimes at an abandon places."

Marin: "I know right?! And when they uploaded in the social media, I couldn't help but admire how beautiful the photo are!"

(Y/n): "Yeah. Its nice."

Marin: "Hehhh? Nice? Its not just nice! Its really beautiful! Don't you think what I'm saying is right?"

(Y/n): "Well... The word beautiful is kinda sacred to me. If I feel it to my heart, then i will say its beautiful. If not, I just go with its nice or its cool or whatever the same word. So, I just can't say pretty or beautiful unless I absolutely feel it from the heart."

Marin: "Ahhhhh I see. If that's what you decide, I think that's totally fine! I also have things that I'm picky about, too."

(Y/n): "What? Like boob bags?"

Marin: "Yeap!"

Then, they stumbled upon a food truck that sells meat wrapped rice balls. Marin's eyes instantly lit up.

Marin: "HOLD UP! HOW COULD I PASS THOSE UP?!"

(Y/n): *......She just ate like, 2 bowls of ramen before.. Now, she wants to get a riceball?*

Marin: "It looks so good~ Are you sure you didn't want one, (Y/n)-kun? I would've totally treated you again."

(Y/n): "Nahh I'm fine. Thank you for offering."

Marin: "Well, I'm digging in then." She then took a bit. "Mmmmmhhh sho good~"

(Y/n): *How come she still has room in her stomach after we just had ramen?*

Marin: "Dang... I did spend a lot of money today. Guess I'll just have to work more."

(Y/n): "I told you not to treat me the meal. I'll pay you back."

Marin: "What? I told you that was on me! I basically dragged you around all day."

(Y/n): "But still, you need to save the money."

Marin then stopped walking. (Y/n) was a bit confused with her sudden behavior.

(Y/n): "Marin?"

Marin: "Seriously... Its totally fine." She then let out a smile. "I was just...  Really happy. Its not often that someone actually plays a game that I recommend. Most people would just end the convo with, 'Yeah. Seems fun.' or whatever it is..." She then paused a bit before continue. "To be honest, i didn't think you'd actually play Slippery Girl. Not to mention, you drew her outfit down to the very last detail.. You're way more better than me, you know?" She then looked at him, with a gentle smile. "I just wanted to thank you."

There's a warmth that (Y/n) felt in his heart everytimr when people said their gratitude for the help. But it was a bit different. Her word made him speechless.

Marin: "Not to mention, the only way I can really help is to provide financial supports!" She said and giggled a bit.

(Y/n): "A friend of mine once said..." He said, catching her attention. "A help can come in different ways. Either money, supplies, emotional support and just sitting there listening to his or her story. Even if you just give to someone a small amount of money, it can be a huge help for that person. So don't think that you're not helpful, Marin. Everyone has their own roles." He said and smiled.

Hearing his word, Marin was a bit taken by it. She thought that he would think that she not helping. Her heart skipped a beat.

Marin: "B-But seriously, this meat roll is super tasty. Here, have a bit, (Y/n)-kun!" She offered as she held the meat roll in front of his face.

(Y/n): "If you insist..." He then took a bite. It was really delicious. "Dang, its really delicious."

Marin: "I know right?!" Marin then took another bite. (Y/n) stared at her and smiled.

(Y/n): *She's still slender even though she eats a lot...*

Marin then looked at him and suddenly her expression changed.

Marin: "Did you just think, 'Man, she totally pigs out?' ".

(Y/n): *.........F*** me.*

Sweat began to pour dowm on his forehead as Marin stared at him.

(Y/n): "N-No. I d-didn't..."

Marin: "Your face! YOU TOTALLY DID! I'M NOT GONNA GET FAT FROM JUST THIS! MY SIZE WON'T CHANGE, SO ITS FINE! TOTALLY FINE!"

(Y/N): "You got that wrong! I didn't think about that!"

Marin: "ALSO, I CAN'T GET FULL UNLESS I EAT RICE! GOT IT?!"

(Y/n): "LOUD AND CLEAR, MA'AM!"

Marin: "Urghh... Whatever. I'm going to be careful untol the event..."

(Y/n): *Man.... She shouted just like the SSO instructor....* Then, suddenly (Y/n) remembered something. "Oh, right. When is this event?"

Marin: "Hm? Well, lets see..." She then took out her phone and began to scroll. "Oh! Found it. There's one in exactly two weeks.

(Y/n): "Oh! That's great! Its just- WAIT WHAT?! IT'S IN TWO-"

Marin: "Oh, crap! Sorry! I'm gonna miss my trsin, so I have to go!" She then made a quick ran to the train station. "Thanks for everything today, (Y/n)-kun! See you later!" Marin shouted as she left (Y/n) alone, in freezing state.

(Y/n): "........I am really fucked up if its really in two weeks...."
