Probably wasn't expecting this one too, huh? Eh, some of you probably were. Anyway, here's S2's OVA!

Enjoy!

---

When a Chiba resident says they're going to the Chiba Station, you'd unmistakably assume they'd go to the station's east entrance.

But, this might be difficult to know for people who are from other prefectures.

Currently, Y/N L/N was waiting outside Chiba Station, a bored look on his face. It seemed he was waiting for someone. He sighed in annoyance, taking out his phone as he checked the time.

10:05 AM.

He heard the running footsteps of someone hurrying over to him, his eyes now panning over to them. Her familiar blonde, orange short hair swaying as she ran, her golden yellow eyes casted on him. A chilling breath left her mouth due to the cold, winter chill. After all, it is the winter season in Japan at the moment.

Iroha: Sorry!

Iroha Isshiki, a first-year student at Sobu High School and the current student council president of said school. She was dressed in a beige colored winter coat, a reddish-pink satchel slung over her shoulder, and pink gloves on. She then stopped in front of the L/N boy.

Iroha: Hope you didn't wait, it took some to get ready.

Y/N: (sigh) Do you know how long I've been sitting here in the damn freezing cold? Not even my winter jacket was cutting it.

Iroha: (pouts) Didn't I tell you to reply with, "Not at all, I just got here myself"? We're about to go on a date after all.

Y/N: (thoughts) Why did I agree to do this in the first place? This feels wrong for some reason. (normal) Whatever. Where do you want to go? And for the record, this isn't a date.

Before, After school, Outside Service Club Room

The Service Club had just finished for the day, all four members exiting the classroom they used as their clubroom. Yukino locks the clubroom with her keys, since she is the club president.

As they waited on her, Yui turned her head to the left, her face brightening up as they see their student council president running up to them.

Yui: Oh, it's Iroha-chan! (waves) Yahello!

Iroha: Good afternoon! I'm glad you're still here.

Yukino: We were about to go home... Did you have some business with us?

Iroha: (nods) Yes! That's right! (looks to Hachiman) Senpai, do you have a moment?

Hachiman: No, but L/N's available.

Y/N: (gives Hachiman an annoyed stare) Oi...

Iroha: (looks to Y/N) Then, senpai! Do you have a moment?

Y/N: (sigh) Fine. What do you want? (looks to the rest) I'll see you guys later, then.

Yui and Hachiman nodded. Although hesitant, Yukino nodded as well, the three of them going down in the opposite direction of Y/N and Iroha.

As they were out from sight, Iroha began speaking in a hushed voice.

Iroha: Um, about the work I requested before...

Y/N: Hmm? Uh, I guess I can do something about it.

Iroha: I see. Then is tomorrow at ten in front of Chiba Station alright?

Y/N: Eh? Tomorrow?

Iroha only gave her signature cheeky, foxy smile that she was known for. Y/N looked away and rubbed the back of his head. If he told his sister's of his plans tomorrow, not only would she be teasing him about a date, she'd also get mad at him that it's not Yukino he's always going with.

That type of nagging from her was always annoying to him, and it's really hard to ignore Setsuna whenever he did that. Y/N tried to think of some way he could escape this.

Y/N: Isn't tomorrow a bit--

Iroha: But, there's free time tomorrow!

Y/N: (deadpan) Even if you said you didn't have free time, I wouldn't know.

Iroha: (pouts) I'm talking about you, Senpai.

Y/N: Huh? Me? Isn't it weird that you're talking about me--

Iroha: Then, I'll be counting on you tomorrow too! I'll be looking forward to Senpai's plan in action!

Present Day

Y/N: And why is this a date?

Iroha: Yes! Isn't Hayama-senpai about to become really busy with things?

Y/N: How should I know? I barely talk to him anymore.

Iroha: I thought casually introducing him to some light fun would be good.

Y/N: I guess that's fine.

Iroha: Isn't that why senpai said he'd think of a date course?

Y/N: (flicks Iroha's forehead) I never said that, idiot. It was probably Hikigaya.

Despite having her forehead flicked, she titled her head and kept a smile. But it was fake, Y/N knowing her real intentions. It was one of her "scary smiles," so to speak. Y/N turned the other way and gritted his teeth with a scowl, trying to mask it with a grin.

Y/N: (thoughts) Hikigaya, you damn bastard. (normal) So? Where do you want to go?

Iroha: (unimpressed) You're leaving it to the girl all of a sudden?

Y/N: (shrug) Hey, I've never been on a date. And making intricate plans can be boring sometimes.

Iroha: (sigh) Geez, it's fine. Let's think about it while walking around. It's cold here too.

Y/N: (deadpan) And who made me wait in the cold for at least fifteen minutes?

Taking off from the Chiba Station, the two began to walk around. Iroha linked her arm with Y/N's, since she proclaimed it's a date. Iroha had leaned forward a bit, looking up at Y/N with her signature smirk.

Iroha: Senpai, what kind of place do you normally go to?

Y/N: My home.

Iroha: (deadpan) Try again.

Y/N: Then, how about movies? We can kill at least two hours for now.

Iroha: When was it decided we're killing time? Well, I guess I'll leave it up to you...

Y/N: Then, the movies it is.

Walking for a bit longer, the two arrive at the movies. Posted outside on it's doors were a list of the current screenings and the times they were being aired.

Overall, Y/N didn't really care what he was going to watch. It was just as he suggested, killing time. While he kept his bored face, Iroha excitedly pointed to one of the screenings that was listed on the sheet of paper.

Iroha: I want to watch this!

Y/N: ...That one? Then I'll watch this one.

Iroha: ...

Y/N: ...What?

Iroha: I see. Since you act like that, it ends up that way...

Y/N: Huh? What the hell are you talking about?

Short Timeskip

Y/N: So, no movies, then? Bowling, billards, and ping-pong instead, huh?

Iroha: This doesn't really matter, senpai, but billards doesn't exactly suit you.

Y/N: (shrugs) Well, I never really cared enough to actually play the game. Not that I enjoy it, anyway.

Iroha: Ah, but if it's ping-pong, you fit in!

Y/N: (deadpan) You didn't need to follow it up with that...

Iroha: Let's play ping-pong instead of watching a movie!

Y/N: (sigh) I guess. But won't it be hard to play with those kinds of shoes on?

The underclassmen looked down, Y/N gesturing to her shoes. Y/N then looks at her annoyed, Iroha just standing there as she just stared at him.

Y/N: What's that look for?

Iroha: No, I just thought you're surprisingly observant.

Y/N: (deadpan) I can tell that much because your height is different than it usually is, shorty.

But she didn't pay any attention to mind of what Y/N called her, stepping forward a bit. This caused Y/N to be taken aback slightly, him stepping back a bit as he flicked her forehead, causing Iroha to pout and look at him annoyed.

She then took another step closer. Her annoyed face then went to surprise.

Iroha: Oh, it's true. You're closer than you are normally.

Y/N: Oi... You're too close, step back a bit. (sigh) In any case, you can just borrow shoes.

Iroha: Hai!

Y/N: (thoughts) Tsk. Seriously, how sly is this damn kouhai?

The two then began to head towards the ping-pong building, Y/N hands in his pockets as he casually walks down the street with Iroha following behind. Entering inside, Y/N payed for their session and the two arrive at a table. Iroha sat down at the nearby chairs, changing her shoes.

Iroha: (excited gasp) I haven't played ping-pong since classes in middle school!

Y/N: I'm pretty sure it's an option to choose in PE when you're a second-year.

After finishing changing into the required shoes instead of her boots, the two got to their places on the opposite ends of the table. Iroha stood proudly, the girl having the ping-pong ball as she was going to serve first.

Iroha: Then...! It's settled that you'll treat me to lunch if I win?

Y/N: Sure. That's if you can even win against me.

The girl then serves, hitting the ball across the table. The two would begin to pass it back and forth to each other, although Y/N was doing it very lazily. Iroha wasn't putting too much strength into her strikes, but she was still making an effort. Y/N on the other hand wasn't, him just hitting the ball gently as it would head back to Iroha at a constant speed.

Iroha then grinned, showing a bit of her tongue, closing one eye as if she was winking, as when the ball came back to her, she put a bit more strength into her strike, yelling out "die" in the process. She expected to be victorious, but the ping-pong ball then came back, whizzing past her as she let out a sharp gasp. On Y/N's face was an annoyed glare.

Y/N: What the hell was that for? You could've hit me, dumbass.

Iroha: Wh-Wha-What the heck was that!?

Y/N: Hmm? What was what?

Iroha: Tch. It's my serve, anyway. (begins to act innocent) Oh! Senpai, please wait a moment! It's bad! It's ba-- Furyah!

She thought she caught Y/N off guard, smacking the ball with her pallet as it was rocketed forward. Like before, she thought she was victorious, a grin plastered on her face. But of course, Y/N was very good at anything sports related. So as soon as the ball came into range of his arm, he hits it back, swiftly going past Iroha's head once more.

Iroha's grin was still on her face, still processing what had happened as she was in complete utter disbelief. Y/N sighed as he rested a hand on his hip.

Y/N: That was very naive, you know.

Iroha then cutely pouts, but the face she was giving wasn't super effective. As in, it wasn't affecting Y/N at all as he kept his bored look. And so for hours, Iroha would keep hitting the ball with such force while making excessive noises, trying to get a point in. But every time, Y/N would win. And by now, it was just getting boring for the L/N boy, who kept yawning in between hits of the ping-pong ball.

Not even certain attempts in trying to distract him in order to sway his attention to something else would stop him. Iroha had tried many things, some were to even lift up her skirt a little bit. But even that didn't stop Y/N from focusing on their little game. A few more minutes later, Iroha could be seen panting in frustration, Y/N twirling the ping-pong pallet's end of the handle on his index finger.

Y/N: So let's see... I'm at...how many is that? Oh, right. Thirty points and with you being zero. And it's about eleven right now, so it is about lunch time. Damn, you are really bad at this.

Iroha: It's not fair! You're cheating!

Y/N: (raised eyebrows) Me? Cheating? That's quite a bold claim, Isshiki. It's not my fault you're this bad. Just get good. Well, in any case, it's my win.

Iroha: (sigh) It can't be helped. I lost this time.

Y/N: (sigh) ...Let's go for lunch then. I'll pay.

Iroha: ...Eh?

Y/N: I have too much money piling up that I haven't really spent it on a lot of things aside from this earlier. Let's go. Besides, I wasn't thinking I'd make you treat me if I won in the first place. Also, aren't you a bit cunning? I saw what you've been trying to do through the past matches.

Iroha: (grin) Isn't it like a girl to be a bit cunning?

Y/N: Well, it doesn't concern me, but that logic isn't going to pass by every guy.

Iroha: No, no, no. Of course there's no way I would do that around Hayama-senpai! What would I do if he started to hate me?

Y/N: Well, I've known the guy for a long time. Since childhood, actually. I'm pretty sure he'd be happier if he saw that side of you.

Iroha: Is that for real!? Where is that information from?

Y/N: I grew up with him because our family is close, but... I don't think there's a particular source.

Iroha: (pouts) It's not credible if there's no source. It doesn't seem that I can act that way yet.

Y/N: I don't think there's a need to sweat over it. For the time being, he's...

He soon cut himself off when he heard Iroha shift over, the sly kouhai having moving her chair closer to his.

Iroha: That's why...for now...

Y/N: Hmm?

She turned to look at him, her usual sly grin on her face. She then leaned forward slightly and closed her eyes, Y/N being confused as to what she was doing. Iroha got close to his ear, Iroha's soft but slow breathing could be felt, making his cheeks warm up slightly with a red hue.

Iroha: (whisper) I'll act this way only to you, senpai.

Y/N: ...Eh?

Y/N backed up slightly and looked at her bewildered. Iroha only gave a cute smile as she giggled, seeing Y/N's slight red blush on his face. Y/N got up with an annoyed grunt and went outside, Iroha quickly changing back into her other shoes and exiting the store as well.

The two began to travel down the street once more, looking for something to do. However, Iroha had piped up an idea.

Iroha: Aren't you a bit hungry?

Y/N: I guess.

Iroha: It scores high points if you're well-informed about delicious food!

The foxy student council president had her arm wrapped around his, Y/N annoyed at the contact. His eyes pan upwards to look at sign, Iroha's gaze following suit.

Initially, her gaze had lit up, thinking that the food Y/N was suggesting will be delicious. However, her lit up gaze then began to die down, her face dropping to a groan as she sees the sign.

Iroha: Ha... It's ramen?

Y/N: No, it's because it's something I always eat.

Iroha: (slight deadpan expression) I wasn't expecting this from you, senpai. I thought you'd be more high class than this.

Y/N: (visible tick mark) Oi...

Iroha: (sigh) Well, it was me that said I'd leave it to you, so I guess it's fine...

Small Timeskip

Having ordered their food inside, Iroha stared down at her bowl. For the ramen dish she was given, it wasn't something she was expecting. In fact, she wasn't even sure if she should eat it or not, despite it being served to her.

Iroha: (mutters quietly) What is this? Is that oil? Maybe wax?

Y/N: Itadakimasu.

The sly kouhai looks towards the L/N teen, who began to blow on his noodles before he used his chopsticks to lift them up towards his mouth. Slurping the noodles in to his mouth, she could see a satisfied look in Y/N's eyes as he ate his noodles, clearly enjoying them. He then took his spoon and began to sip up some of the broth.

Seeing as Y/N was eating it, Iroha took her chopsticks and began moving them towards her noodles. However, she was a bit nervous, just inching her wooden utensils closer towards the dish. She picked up a single strand and stared at it for a bit before she put it in her mouth, slurping up the noodle to get it's taste. Once Iroha finished chewing her first noodle and swallowed, her eyes lit up in amazement.

It was good. Delicious, even. It made her go for more.

And so, Iroha began to eat her noodles alongside Y/N, the two enjoying the flavors the ramen had to offer. After finishing, Iroha had her hands in her lap as she looked off to the side slightly.

Iroha: This is frustrating... But it tasted good.

Y/N: (small grin) Is that so?

Iroha: (shyly) Well... I guess taking a girl into a shop that's hard to go alone to scores some high points.

Timeskip

Now out of the ramen shop, Iroha and Y/N began to wander the city of Chiba some more. In a park-like area, Iroha quickly walks up next to him and looks up at the L/N teen.

Iroha: Don't you want to eat something sweet now?

Y/N: Sure, I guess. Not that I'd deny some. Question is, where do you want to get some?

The girl mischievously giggled as she linked her arms with Y/N's once more, much to his annoyance. Later, the two arrived at a cafe named "Lix's Cafe."

Iroha: Then, let's go--Bad...!

Iroha cut herself off and quickly hid behind Y/N. He looked at her annoyed, along with a questioning look.

Y/N: What are you doing?

Iroha: Look over there!

Y/N: Hmm?

His green eyes then cast back over to the entrance of Lix's Cafe. Exiting out of it was two familiar people.

Iroha: It's the vice president and secretary-chan.

Y/N: What? Are those two going out or something?

Iroha: Who knows? I doubt it. Besides, it's a bit simplistic to say things like they're dating from just hanging out--...What was that, were you just hitting on me just now? There's a limit to shamelessness, already acting like my boyfriend from just hanging out one time! (shakes head) I'm sorry, but you can only do that after hanging out some more times! (bows while also out of breath)

Y/N: Hai, hai, hai, whatever. Let's go. It's fucking cold out here, so let's head inside already.

Iroha: A-Ah! P-Please wait for me!

Heading inside the cafe and sitting at a nearby table, the two grab a menu and began to browse it, shortly ordering after. Iroha was sitting across the L/N boy.

Iroha: Well, that near-miss was honestly unexpected... (whisper) Next time, let's go someplace where there's less people we know!

Y/N: Huh? There's a next time?

Iroha: (pouts) Why do you seem a bit unpleasant about that?

Waiter: Thank you for waiting!

Iroha quickly lit up in delight, forgetting her previous attitude as the waiter was walking towards them with a tray. The waiter had brought along some sweets and other dessert items for the two, mostly Iroha.

Waiter: Is this everything you ordered?

Iroha: Ah, excuse me! Can you please take a picture?

Waiter: Sure, I don't mind!

Y/N rolls his eyes as he grabs a spoon and began to dig in. He was stopped when Iroha tapped the top of his hand, making Y/N look at the sly girl with an annoyed look. A spark had lit in her mind. An idea of sorts.

Y/N then sees his student council president with her hand up to her face, the two fingers like a piece sign over her right eye. Her head was faced towards the camera, a grin on her face.

Iroha: Okay, senpai! Make a peace! Peace!

Y/N: Why? It's not like I have to be in the photo, anyway. Besides, the ice cream will melt.

Iroha: It won't melt that fast! It's fine so hurry up!

Seeing as there wasn't option to disagree with her or deny the request, he ultimately sighed and stood up. Y/N then does the same action as her, albeit a bit embarrassed to do so.

Waiter: It'd be better to get a bit closer.

Y/N clicked his tongue slightly as he did what the waiter beckoned, drawing a bit closer towards the girl. However, he didn't realize how close he was getting towards her, making him blush a bit. He was not in love with the girl (we all know who he will get to), but his heart beat began to increase just a bit. He wasn't used to getting this close in contact with a girl, with the exception of his mother and sister.

Waiter: Okay, here we go.

The camera shutter clicked, the waiter nodding in satisfaction about the photo. Handing the phone back to Iroha, he begins walking away.

Iroha: Thank you very much!

Y/N: (thoughts) ...That was so embarrassing...I want to die.

Sitting back down, Y/N grabs his spoon and began to ready himself to eat his ice cream. But it was only now he noticed, his vanilla ice cream was beginning to melt.

Y/N: (thoughts) ...It did melt a bit, you damn sly girl. This is such a drag...

Timeskip-Dusk

Iroha: Well, I guess you scored ten points for today.

Y/N: Why ten? Out of what exactly.

Iroha: Out of a hundred, of course!

Y/N: (deadpan) Why that low?

The two had exited Lix's Cafe and were now walking down the streets of Chiba once again. The day was almost over, so they were just walking to pass the time while also talking between each other.

Iroha: Firstly, minus ten points because you weren't Hayama-senpai.

Y/N: I consider that a good thing. I don't want popularity in the first place. You get way too much attention.

Iroha: Then, minus forty points if we include your conduct.

Y/N: Sure, if you want to include that. But I act however I want, so deal with it.

Iroha: (irritated sigh) You were fully aware of it...

Y/N: Obviously.

Iroha: It's minus fifty points for the part where you easily accepted a girl's invitation.

Y/N: Mm-hm, whatever.

Unsatisfied with the response, Iroha punches Y/N in his side. Although it was weak, so it didn't much. It only resulted with Iroha getting one of Y/N's annoyed glares.

Y/N: That wasn't necessary, asshole. And besides, you were the one that called me. And your result should've been zero, not ten.

Iroha: (cheeky grin) But, I'll give you a bonus ten points because it was fun! Maybe another ten because you're not Hikigaya-senpai!

Y/N: (small grin) ...Sure, I'll take that. If it means being better than that dead-eyed fish idiot. (returns to normal expression) Thanks for that, I guess.

Iroha: ...How was it for you, senpai...?

Y/N: Well...I suppose that... You can say it was along those lines, too. It was a bit tiring though.

Iroha: "Bit tiring"? Aren't you being a bit too frank? (sighs and smiles) That's fine though. It just means you were putting in that much effort as my partner!

Y/N: Hmm.

Iroha: (pouts) What's with that super bored and annoyed expression!? There isn't a girl that isn't annoying.

Y/N: Hmph. (small grin, walks a bit faster) Sure, sure. I suppose there aren't any people who aren't annoying in the first place.

Iroha: Uwah, senpai, you're annoying!

Y/N: (thoughts) This girl sure can be cruel sometimes.

Iroha: Today was a good enough reference, for now! (bows slightly) Thank you.

Y/N: Mm-hmm, sure.

Iroha: (cheeky and sly grin) Senpai, make sure you properly reference from this as well!

Y/N: Ah...what? ...Well, thanks for today.

Iroha: (nods) Then, I'll see you again at school.

Y/N: (monotone) Be careful on your way back.

Iroha: (slight deadpan) You can at least put some more feeling into it.

Iroha Isshiki begins heading in another direction while Y/N watched from afar. Looking back at today, he could tell it felt like a date. Just thinking about it, another girl popped in his mind.

He shook his head while he grunted. Why was it her he thought about? He thought he buried those feelings a long time ago. In the end, Y/N went home for the day.

Next Day, Sobu High School, Service Club Room

Iroha: Good work, everyone!

Yui: Oh, Iroha-chan! Yahello!

The foxy student council president had journeyed over to the Service Club's room at the end of the school day. Walking into the classroom, she plopped herself into a seat in front of Yukino and Yui. At both of the ends, Y/N and Hachiman were sitting there, the L/N boy on Yukino's side.

Iroha then looks to Y/N, putting on her usual smiling face.

Iroha: Ah! Senpai, thank you for your time the other day!

Y/N: H-Huh? A-Ah... Yeah...sure...

The green-eyed teen made an awkward glance to the others. On the Yukinoshita girl's face was an unamused look. However, looking into her bright blue eyes, there seemed to be a fury welling up in them. In fact, Y/N could even hear her click her tongue in annoyance, Yukino tapping her foot repeatedly, although it was gently.

Simple answer. She seemed pissed... For some odd reason. (Yeah, we all know why.)

With Yui and Hachiman, they were curious. Although, Hachiman had an idea of what occurred, moving his book up to cover his mouth so he could cover his shit-eating grin. Yui kept looking between Iroha and Y/N, trying to make sense of what was being talked about.

Trying to take away the heat from him, Y/N awkwardly cleared his throat and went back to his phone, reading a book online. It was the romance title under the author of Utako Kasumi.

Iroha: So, I was thinking... How about making a free newspaper by the student council!

The room fell silent.

Yukino: ...Hai?

Small Timeskip

Yui: (making rectangle with fingers) Free newspaper is like, that, right?

Iroha: Yes! It's exactly that!

Hachiman: That's fine, right? Though I don't know what you're going to make it about.

Y/N: I suppose she could make it about what's currently happening in Chiba, or what's going on currently in the school. Finally get rid of the announcement bulletin board at the front office and have the newspapers stationed at the ends of hallways or something.

Iroha: I've sort of already decided on that. Things like places to hang out, restaurants with good food, and cute cafes.

Yui: Ehhh... I want to see that!

Yukino: (sigh) I don't really have any interests, so I don't have to see--

Iroha had already dug into her pocket and fished out her phone. Already on a picture, which was a picture of the front of Lix's Cafe, Yukino immediately paused. She began to have a few ideas springing up in her head. Such as... Asking the L/N boy out on a date, that's if she could work up the courage to do so.

However, Iroha scrolled on over to the next picture. On it were three cats, which instantly caught Yukino's attention.

Yui: Ah! How cute!

Iroha: It's great, isn't it?

Yukino: Can you show me that photo just now again?

Iroha: Yes, of course!

Yukino: Th-Those cat sundries...

Yui: (squeals in happiness) This is great, too!

Iroha: This is super cute also!

Yukino: Can you print this out in the reference room afterwards?

As the girls continued to gush over the cat pictures, Y/N paid little attention to them, continuing to read his digital book. But it soon got quiet.

Which was odd.

Looking up, he could see that Hachiman was staring at him, his shit-eating grin still hidden behind his book. He then noticed the three girls, particularly Iroha and Yui. They were making awkward glances at him.

Y/N: Huh? What?

Yui: Ah... Yeah... No, I kinda... I-I just thought I'd like to try going there too...

Yukino: (irritated smile) It seems like a very fun photo, yes?

Grabbing Iroha's phone, Yukino faced it towards him. Y/N squinted his eyes slightly before he choked on his spit, jumping slightly.

It was the same photo Iroha had the waiter take of them two doing the peace sign pose. Iroha's face was happy, as usual. Y/N was making an awkward side glance in the photo, a red hue on his face as he embarrassingly did the peace sign pose. It was this moment, Y/N felt like he really wanted to die.

Yukino: Y/N.~ Would you like to explain what you were doing with Isshiki-san the other day?~

Y/N: (thoughts) Eh? Eh??? Why am I suddenly locked in my seat? I can't move? And when did she get so scary???

Iroha: (nervously shuffles in seat) U-Um...I had senpai cooperate with me for the coverage... Ah, that's right! Actually, all the pages haven't been filled yet, so I was having trouble! So...

Yui: (looks to Y/N) Um... Then--

Iroha: You'll do the coverage? That's a life saver! (digs into pocket) Ah, this is the student council's property, so feel free to use it!

Taking out a camera from her pocket, she quickly hands it to Yui, who hesitantly took it. Y/N refused to make contact with Yukino, who was giving him an icy cold glare. It was terrifying to him, to say the least.

Yui: Yukinon...

Yukino: (long sigh) ...If it's on the weekend, I'm free.

Hachiman: I got it...

As Y/N continued to look down, he grunted in slight pain, looking to the black-haired girl. She had an irritated look, the Yukinoshita girl stomping and grinding on Y/N's foot.

Y/N: ...Sure, I'll help out.

---

It was the next weekend and Y/N was once again out and about, heading to Chiba Station to meet up with Yui, Yukino, and Hachiman. He was already annoyed that he had to go out, but because of Yukino's terrifying glare, and the constant nagging of his sister, Y/N reluctantly got out.

As he walked to Chiba Station, he looked ahead, seeing Yukino was already there. She was dressed in a white winter jacket, black leggings, grey boots, and a brownish-black shoulder bag. She seemed to be eagerly looking around, looking for someone.

Y/N: You're early.

Yukino: H-Hmm? A-Ah! I-It's normal conduct in society to arrive five minutes early.

Y/N: Is that so? Anyway... You, um...

Yukino: Wh-What?

Y/N: (scratching cheek awkwardly) You look... You look nice, is all. That's all I wanted to say.

Yukino: (light blush) Thanks...you look... You look nice as well.

Yui: L/N-san! Yukinon! Yahello!

The two look over to the orange-haired girl's voice. Yui was dressed in a red winter jacket herself, with a brown shoulder bag. Coming alongside her was Hachiman, who wore his own winter jacket that consisted of a blue-green and black, with khakis pants.

Hachiman: So, where are we going?

First order of business, they decided to head to the mall, specifically the shop called "Solo." Yui and Yukino were in front of a mirror, Yui having presented Yukino with some dark blue dress.

Yui: Yukinon, cute clothes like this definitely suit you!

Yukino: D-Do they?

Yui: And, things like this too!

She then present a pink dress alongside her as well, Yukino looking a bit bashful as she looked at the orange-haired girl with a shy smile.

Yukino: That's definitely a bit...

Yui: Ehh? It's fine, isn't it? It is! It really is! Just try it on once!

Yukino: Ah... Ah, no...

Y/N sighed slightly as he and Hikigaya were waiting outside. He then turned his head to the store behind him, where he blushed a bit. It was a woman's store, but they were displaying underwear. He quickly looks back to the shop the girl's were in, then messing with his jacket's collar.

Hachiman had turned his head to see what he was looking at before he too blushed as well and looked back to where the girls were. You see, once see shops like that, you end up getting interested. While Y/N was doing well to conceal such activity, it couldn't be hidden from Yukino. She quickly appeared in front of the L/N boy with a unimpressed look.

Yukino: You'll get reported if you conduct such suspicious activity.

Y/N: (jumps back in surprise) H-Hey, don't do that! (clears throat) I won't get reported from this level. ...I don't think.

Hachiman: At most, this is the level the shop assistant comes close and says something to us.

Yukino: (sigh) That's already something you should try to avoid.

Y/N: Besides, your eyes are the ones that look more like a creep, Hikigaya.

Hachiman: (annoyed) Oi.

Yukino: I wish you two wouldn't behave too embarrassingly since you're with us.

Y/N: Yeah, yeah. We'll be careful.

Y/N walks away just a bit, but notices that Yukino was following behind, seemingly keeping watch of him. He sighed once again as he turned the other way to look at another store's window. Yukino once again caught up with him.

Y/N: ...Where's Yuigahama?

Yukino: A-Ah, she's checking if we can publish the store for the free newspaper. I believe Hikigaya-kun went with her.

Y/N: I see.

The two had briefly turned around to see Hachiman and Yui negotiating and talking with the store clerk. When Y/N returned his gaze to Yukino, he sees her eyeing something, his gaze following hers.

She seemed to be looking at the store he was once looking at, but she was eyeing a particular item. It was a bra, the tag on display. It read, "Volume UP Bra. 'Just by sleeping while wearing this, you'll go 2 CUP UP!'"

Yukino then realizes that Y/N was looking at the item as well, making her gasp as she was beginning to feel insecure about her chest size. She then awkwardly makes her way to the store the other two were in.

Yukino: I wonder if Yuigahama-san's negotiations have gone well...

As she walked back, she once again turned her head around to look at the item. She then looked at her chest, placing her hand on it as she let out a small sigh of sadness. Y/N scratched his cheek as he followed behind. He didn't really care about those sizes, but he wouldn't tell her that. He'd probably get slapped in the face...probably.

A kitten could be seen meowing behind a glass container. The four of them then went to a pet store, Yukino having her hands pressed against the glass.

Yukino: Nyaaa.~ Nyaaa.~

As she kept meowing, the cat did so as well. The two began to have a back and forth repeated exchange of letting out meows. Y/N found this scene oddly cute... And wholesome. He then stepped closer to her.

Y/N: (thoughts) She sure loves cats... Like cats love Friskies, but she should pay attention to her surroundings some more.

And so, throughout the day, they went to various options for the topic of their newspaper. First was a movie, which Yui was crying happily at, Yukino was studiously studying, and the two boys were quite bored watching i. The next thing they did was ping-pong, the two girls going against each other.

Needless to say, it was quite obvious as to who won. After all, she hates losing.

And to finish it off for the day, they went to eat a restaurant, where they laughed and chat as they ate.

Next Day, Service Club Room

Iroha: All of them are okay!

Yui: Really? That's a reflief!

Iroha: Yeah!

It was the end of the next school day and Iroha was reviewing the photos they took for the newspapers. All in all, she was satisfied with the results. However, she came across one picture.

It was nearly an exact copy of what she and Y/N did at Lix's Cafe. Both boys were at the two ends, awkwardly doing the peace sign poses. The girls were doing it as well, Yui being the only one who was enthusiastic about it as she did it with both her hands.

Iroha: (smiles softly) I'm glad it seems to have become a proper reference.

The four let out a collective surprised sound.

Iroha: Ah, that's right! It's a bit off to say, "while we're at it," but how about one photo of everyone in the Service Club?

Yui: Ah, that's a good idea! Let's take one together too, Iroha-chan!

Iroha: Yes! Let's afterwards! So, let's first take a photo of the Service Club!

Small Timeskip

Iroha: Yes, yes! That looks good!

Hachiman: Hey.

Y/N: Isn't this kind of arrangement weird?

Their arrangement was this. Yui was on the left, then Hachiman and Y/N, the two of them in chairs, with Yukino standing next to Y/N.

Hachiman: It looks like Shichi-Go-San.

Yukino: You two are being stubborn.

Yui: Iroha-chan, it's all good!

Iroha: Then I'm going to take it. Okay, cheese!

She then took it. After, she reviewed it before walking up to the two.

Iroha: Here, senpais. It's a good photo.

Y/N grabbed the camera as the other three leaned in to look at it. Y/N let out a soft smile.

Indeed. It was a good a photo. While it wouldn't describe their club, it was a photo that would last forever in their memories. Something they'd look back to smile fondly on.

Their feelings were put into this photo. So that's why... It's a good photo.

(A/N): Just imagine how it was described from what I said earlier.
