"Too bad he has a girlfriend." Misaki was full of regret. She wasn't the type to steal someone else's boyfriend... If only he were her boyfriend, he might be willing to participate in some very stimulating plays with her.
For instance, going out at night only wearing a trench coat and various toys. Thinking about it while reading doujinshi was exciting, but... aside from those who treat women like toys—or "public use private vehicles" (an in-universe slang for being passed around)—Misaki didn't want to be truly treated like a urinal. A normal man who cherished his girlfriend would definitely be scared off and wouldn't understand this kind of play, perhaps even seeing her as a very promiscuous woman.
It would be different with someone like Rin-sensei! He would definitely ensure both safety and the fulfillment of her fetish!
Eiri pursed her lips, looking at the regretful Misaki. Regretful? He's hosting parties with his girlfriend's younger sister at home; what is there to regret!
I don't know what's gotten into Kaede, tolerating such a thing... Isn't that too much, even for research?
But... if I introduce her to Kaede, maybe I can see a real-life version of my manga!? The thought made Eiri's heart race, and she looked conflicted. But he was Kaede's boyfriend, and Kaede was her good friend... Is it really okay for me to do this? Both were her friends. The only thing Eiri was relieved about was that Kaede didn't seem to care about these things. If Kaede agrees...
Eiri quietly pulled out her phone and opened her chat with Kaede.
Eiri: [Someone's got her eyes on your boyfriend!]
On the other end of the phone, a scantily clad Kaede and a similarly dressed Suzu were sitting together on the living room sofa, playing on their phones and eating ice pops while the TV played in the background.
Kaede raised an eyebrow after seeing the message from Eiri... He just took the virginity of four girls yesterday, even immediately occupying the 'baby's room' during their first time and making them pull ahegao faces. Then he made them swallow the vitamin tablets without water, forcing them to press out the imported cream to use as liquid... And he's already hooking up with someone else today?
I did tell him I had a cuckold fetish, but is he really being this efficient!?
Kaede: [Who?]
Eiri: [Misaki, do you know her? The one who was his signboard girl at the last convention.]
Kaede: [I know her, met her once. What did she do?]
Eiri: [She said he's her ideal type and wishes he didn't have a girlfriend.]
Hearing that, Kaede breathed a sigh of relief... She thought they had already started something. So, she was just interested. Although she had only met her once, that girl named Misaki did have a great figure, like a dairy cow!
But wait... Eiri wasn't at the convention last time. How did they meet?
Kaede: [Are you together now? How did you meet?]
Eiri: [We're at a Karaoke spot now. She's actually my fan, but I haven't told her I'm Kashiwagi Eri.]
Kaede: [Send me the location. I'm coming over now.]
Eiri: [Huh?]
Hiss... Eiri took a sharp breath. Am I about to cause a love triangle drama? But Kaede doesn't seem like the type to care about this.
Kaede: [Hurry and send it!]
"Um..." Eiri carefully looked at Misaki and Marin, who were enthusiastically discussing their fetishes. "Kaede said she wants to come hang out with me..."
"Eh?" Misaki was startled. I just said I wish he didn't have a girlfriend, and now she's coming? Also...
Marin asked curiously, "Eiri, do you know Kaede?"
Eiri gave an awkward laugh. "Yes... We're from the same school and are very good friends."
"Sure, let Kaede come play too."
"Mhm, then... then let her come." Seeing Marin agree, the slightly guilty Misaki had no choice but to agree... If she refused, wouldn't that just show she was feeling guilty?
Seeing them both agree, Eiri sent the location to Kaede.
A moment later, a knock was heard, and the door to the private room opened. Two virtually identical twin-like girls walked in, with only a slight difference in chest size. Both were dressed the same, wearing shorts and simple short-sleeved shirts. They were tall, and their fair, porcelain-like legs were smooth and delicate, with ten small, rounded toes.
Kaede and Suzu raised their hands to greet the three, then sat down on the sofa. The slightly guilty Misaki dared not make eye contact with Kaede.
"You're not singing? What are you talking about?"
"We're talking about doujinshi," Marin said with a cheerful smile. "Kaede, you must have read a lot, too, right? Have you ever played a GALGAME?"
"GALGAME? I haven't played those." As Kaede spoke, she looked at Misaki with a half-smile. "I hear Misaki has her eye on him?"
Kaede's words immediately froze Misaki's expression. Cold sweat instantly drenched her back.
"Y-Y-Y-You have to let me explain!!!!" Misaki swallowed several times. "I... I just said Rin-sensei is my ideal type!!! I'm not interested in Rin-sensei romantically!!!! I just want to find a doujinshi artist like Rin-sensei to be my boyfriend! That way, I can experience the feeling of being degraded like a doujinshi heroine!!!"
In her panic, Misaki immediately exposed herself, then looked at Eiri with tearful eyes... Eiri must have told her!!!!
Marin didn't dare to speak, but Eiri was trying hard to hold back her laughter.
"Mhm, mhm, mhm." Eiri nodded repeatedly, stifling her laughter. "She just wants to experience the kinds of play in doujinshi, but she can't find anyone who understands her fetish."
"Oh, so that's it..." Seeing Misaki's panic, a smile curved on Kaede's lips... That's right! I'm his girlfriend! The official girlfriend must maintain her dignity! And I'm full of dignity right now!
I can allow it, but they can't take him away!
"Alright."
"Eh?" Misaki was stunned. Kaede glanced at Suzu, who immediately understood.
"Kaede means that if you want him to help you experience what it's like to be a doujinshi heroine... it's fine."
"Huh? You... aren't you his girlfriend? Why would you..." Misaki stared blankly at Kaede. She suspected she was dreaming... Kaede, as his girlfriend, would actually allow her to do doujinshi-style things with him?
Kaede leaned back on the sofa and shrugged nonchalantly. "What's the big deal? The more practice he gets, the better it is for me later."
"I-Is that so..." Misaki almost doubted her ears, or if the Kaede in front of her was possessed by an alien.
"If you're too shy to ask, I can talk to him for you." Kaede looked completely indifferent. After subtly glancing at Misaki, Kaede turned her attention to Eiri, her smile broadening. "The doujinshi artist you like is named Kashiwagi Eri, right? Eiri is a fan of hers, too. Eiri wants to experience it too, right? Why don't you two come together?"
Eiri froze... Oh no, is she targeting me?
