Baka To Science Chapter 15

Chapter 15 Love Results

Akira looked at the paper in front of her, “I don’t believe it.” She was currently sitting at the table looking at Akihisa’s test results, surrounded by Akihisa, his friend group and three teachers from his school.

“Well sis, I hate to break it to ya, but it’s one hundred percent fact,” said Akihisa smugly. “Ain't that right, Ms.Takahashi.”

Youko adjusted her glasses, “Indeed that is correct. I double checked every paper, each and every single student in Class F passed the exam. Some of them even aced the exam, including the remedial student, Akihisa Yoshii.”

“How?” asked Akira, “My brother is an idiot, a lovable dumb idiot. Who loves video games and food.”

“HEY!” yelled Akihisa, “There’s more to me than just video games and food.”

“I haven’t found your porn collection just yet Aki.” 

“I don’t have a porn collection.” Replied Akihisa, ‘I have no need for one.’

“I’ll find your incest porn eventually.”

“For the last time I don’t have any porn!”

“It’s like she wants there to be incest porn.” Whispered Yui.

“Yeah no kidding.” Whispered back Mia. “Anyway this should without a doubt prove my teaching methods work.”

“No.” shot back Akira quickly.

“No?” Mia said, shocked.

This even confused Akihisa’s friends. “Dude, how can she say no?” asked Kouta.

“Yeah, all of us passed,” said Hideyoshi, “Without a doubt Ms. Shiono’s lessons worked.”

“NO!?” Repeated Akira while looking away from the group.

“What is she five?” asked Yuuji.

“Even my little sister acts more mature than this.” stated Minami.

“Sis, why are you saying no?” Asked Akihisa.

She turned to him with tears rolling down her face, “Because I’m not ready to let you go.” As then gave him a massive hug so tight everyone could hear his ribs breaking and his spine cracking. “You’re the little brother, you should still be relying on me, you shouldn’t be making your own money yet or finding other girls, you should be asking me for help or trying to peek at me while I’m in the shower.”

“Okay, that last part was a bit odd.” stated Mia earning nods from around the room.

“I don’t want to let you go.” said Akira through eyes full of tears that began to soak into Akihisa’s shirt.

Akihisa looked down at his big sister who was now a crying mess, “Sis, I’m not moving or anything. I’m still going to be right here.” Akira looked up at her brother, her eyes already puffy with tears, “And I still need my big sister, if you think I’m old enough to do everything on my own then you're crazy, I don’t even know how taxes work yet, and I would love it if my sister could show me how to do that.”

Akira then quickly un hugged and re-hugged her brother by his head, pressing his face into her breasts. “Oh Aki, you're the best little brother ever.”

The scene was sweet for a moment, but just a moment, as it dragged on everyone became worried about Akihisa, “Uh, hey can you stop crying for a moment.” asked Mia.

“And release your brother before he dies.” Yelled Yuuko.

Akira stopped crying and looked at the other before realizing her brother had stopped moving. “Oh Aki are you okay?” she asked as she released him.

For a moment Akihisa was still until he gasped for air, “I’M ALIVE!” yelled Akihisa as he began to take in massive amounts of air. “I thought I was done for.”

“You would have gone out the best way possible.” stated Kouta.

Hideyoshi gave him a questioning look. “Seriously?” 

“That or your head getting crushed together by thicc thighs.”

“Moving on,” said Mia as she grabbed Akihisa and handed him over to Himeji and Minami, “We need to discuss our little deal we had.”

“Deal?” repeated Akira before remembering their first time meeting, “Oh right, you won, Akihisa aced his test but we never went over what you got after you won.”

“Deal?” asked Youko.

Yui smiled and then explained, “When we first met, Akira made a deal with us that if Akihisa failed to ace his test he was forced to stop his hobbies but she is right I don’t remember what would happen if Akihisa did ace his test.”

Mia thought for a moment, “Let’s see here.”

“I see,” said Youko as she grabbed her bag, “Well everything from here doesn’t involve me so I’ll be taking my-”

“I got it,” said Mia as she turned to her fellow teachers, “Drinks and food are all on Akira tonight.”

“Huh? A girl’s night?” asked Akira for clarification.

“Yeah, sounds like fun right.” said Mia with an excited smile, “I’m new to this whole teaching job and I can safely say, I’m exhausted and want to go get drinks, and nothing is more better when the bill is on someone else.”

“That’s true,” said Yui with a smile.

Youko thought about it for a moment, “Well if that’s the case then if you have room, I wouldn’t mind joining.”

“Hey, what about us?” asked Kouta, reminding the women that the students were there. “Don’t we get something out of this?”

“Can any of you drink?” asked Akira and none of the students could say anything but Akihisa raised his hand, “Alcohol.” Akihisa slowly lowered his hand as he remembered he was still a minor, “Nice try, Aki.”

“Dude, how far did you think that was going to go?” asked Yuuji.

“Oh shut up.” counted Akihisa with a slight blush.

“Good to know that just because he aced a test doesn’t mean he’s any less Akihisa.” said Hideyoshi.

“In any case Aki, I’ll bring you home some dessert later, when I get home.” said Akira.

“So we’re heading out tonight?” asked Yui.

“I don’t see why not,” said Mia with a big smile, “Let’s go!”

Soon all four women left the apartment and were off to the bars, “Unbelievable.” said Kouta, “They get to go out and party while we’re stuck here.”

“I wouldn’t really call it a party.” said Yuuko, “I mean I can’t imagine our teachers partying.” 

“Well everyone needs to unwind ever now and then.” stated Yuuji.

“How about we hangout here?” offered Akihisa, “I could whip up some food for us.”

“Can’t,” said Shouko, “Me and Yuuji are having dinner with his mom.”

“We are?” asked Yuuji, confused, “Wait, when did you get my moms number?”

“Years ago.” answered Shouko plainly, “She wants to celebrate you getting third place.”

“I see, well I guess we shouldn’t keep her waiting.” said Yuuji as he mentally prepared himself for his mother. “Sorry guys, it looks like you’ll have to celebrate without us.”

“Wait,” said Akihisa, “Before you go, what are your thoughts on moving classes?”

“Huh?”

“Oh you mean changing classes with the promotion test,” said Hideyoshi, “Well, Ms. Shiono did say that the most we could move to would be class C and that we could work up to A.”

“Yeah but who knows if we would all be in the same class,” said Kouta.

“That’s right, we all might get put into different classes,” said Minami.

“Does that matter?” asked Yuuko, “We’re already not in the same class right now and we’re still friends.”

The group was silent for a moment, “I suppose.” said Himeji weakly, ‘But still…’

“In any case we don’t need to worry about that now,” said Yuuji, “We can worry about that back at school. For now let’s just be thankful that the test is finally over.”

“Agreed.” stated Akihisa as a mountain of stress left his body.

“Anyway I’ll catch you guys later.” said Yuuji as he and Shouko left.

Suddenly Kouta got a phone call, “Aiko!” Kouta quickly answered the phone, “You owe me a photo….what……come and take it myself……you just sent me your address….” Kouta checked his phone and saw a text with an address, “I’ll be right over.” He then turned to the group. “Excuse me, I need to go.” Then suddenly he vanished.

“Whoa he’s quick.” said Yuuko as she saw his full speed.

“He can move quickly when he wants to.” stated Akihisa. “So you guys up for a snack.” Suddenly Minami put a hand on his arm. “Minami?”

“How about a rain check, for now,” said Minami.

“Huh?” Akihisa looked confused.

“Me and Minami have some stuff to do,” said Himeji, slightly nervous. “Yuuko, would you like to tag along?”

Yuuko looked shocked for a moment before narrowing her eyes, “I see, sure I don’t mind. Hideyoshi, would you mind telling the parents I’m heading out for some girl time.”

“Sure, I think mom would like it knowing that you’re taking some time to relax,” said Hideyoshi.

“I’m not relaxing,” said Yuuko bluntly.

“I know.” said Hideyoshi as he knew his sister was going to war. “Good luck.”

“What’s going on?” asked Akihisa confused, “I’m confused, but before you go Yuuko-”

Yuuko raised her hand, “Don’t worry, we’ll talk later.” Yuuko gave Akihisa a smile before turning to Minami and Himeji, ‘Don’t worry, I understand my feelings now, I’ll be these two and become Akihisa’s girlfriend.’ She declared in her head.

“Okay, well have fun, I guess.” said Akihisa as the three girls left leaving just him and Hideyoshi, “Is it just me or was that a little weird?”

Hideyoshi gave a look of disbelief. “Akihisa…” Hideyoshi then just sighed, “You know, don't worry about it. Just stay in tonight and we’ll all celebrate later, okay.”

“Okay.” said Akihisa with a smile, “I guess I can test a few breakfast dishes in the morning for my sister to try and help her with the hangover she has in the morning.”

“Yeah don’t forget to rub it in her face in the morning.” said Hideyoshi, “I’m going to head home.”

“Okay, you have a good one, man. Take care.”

“You too.” said Hideyoshi as he left the apartment, “Now where did my sister go.”

~o~

Yuuko took a sip of her tea, “That’s some good tea.” She then placed the cup down, “So what did the two of you want to talk about?” Sitting across from her was Minami and Himeji.

Unbeknownst to the three, Hideyoshi was sitting across the tea shop watching them in secret, using a handy disguise from the drama club. ‘Wow, sis knows how to own the room, barely said anything and it appears she already has control over the room. I know I shouldn’t worry too much about my sister, she can handle Minami and Himeji, but my gut is telling me to keep an eye on things here.’

Minami took a deep breath, “Okay let’s stop beating around the bush here, what do you think about Akihisa?”

Yuuko thought for a moment, “I like him.” She said matter of factly. “I will admit the first time I saw him I thought he was a goofy idiot with no future whatsoever.”

“What changed?” asked Himeji.

“We had a heart to heart,” said Yuuko with a slight blush at the memory, “He tried to cheer me up when I was having doubts about myself and he made me realize that I was more than just test scores. I realized that he was still a goofy idiot, but he had a good heart and he showed me I could be something more to myself. After that I started to notice him and after seeing how determined he was for his dream, I realized I had developed feelings for him.”

“I see.” said Himeji with a smile, “He is a lovable idiot.”

“What do you mean you could be something more to yourself?” asked Minami, curious.

Yuuko was slightly surprised by the question, “Well, he convinced me to discover my own dream and work on it.” She then took out her phone, “I’ll show you but only if you promise not to tell anyone and afterwards I can ask you two questions.”

Both girls nodded and Yuuko showed them her phone of a website, “A website?” asked Minami, confused for a moment before she started looking at it closer, “Wait, this is about romance books!”

“Yes, something like that.” said Yuuko, not wanting to push it.

“Oh my gosh, you’re Lady Doki Doki.” said Himeji with stars in her eyes, “I love your website, I get all of my books suggestions from there.”

Hideyoshi had to bite his tongue and spit into a napkin to remain silent, ‘Himeji reads my sister's smut suggestions!’

Minami's eyes popped a little, “Wait you mean those books you showed me…came from Yuuko.”

Yuuko was now sweating at their reactions, “Umm what kind of member are you?” she asked nervously.

“A dark member.” said Himeji with a smile.

‘THAT’S THE ADULT SUPER HONRY SECTION!’ screamed Yuuko in her head she began to freak out, “oh Uh i uh O only added that one for some extra money I uh uh didn’t think anyone from school was a dark member.” As Yuuko attempted to take a sip of her tea while her hands were shaking frantically.

Hideyoshi couldn’t help but stare at Himeji, ‘I don’t think I can ever look at Himeji the same way again.’

‘She’s almost as horny as Himeji,’ Thought Minami before smiling slightly, ‘We can make this work.’ Minami cleared her throat, “Any way you had questions for us.”

“YES!” said Yuuko, quickly wanting to change subjects. She quickly collected herself, “What made you two fall for Akihisa?”

Both girls immediately blushed at the question, “Uh well you see….”Himeji didn’t know where to start.

“He was an idiot,” said Minami as a smile appeared across her face, “When I first moved here from Germany I was at a loss, I could barely speak the language and I had no idea what I was doing at all, when suddenly this boy appears and says something I just didn’t understand at all. It wasn’t German or Japanese. The closest translation I could get was nonsense until I realized he was trying to speak to me in French.”

“What?”

“Akihisa knows French?” asked Yuuko in disbelief.

Minami laughed, “Not in the slightest. Minami, my name. He thought it was Mon Ami, French for my friend. He had learned a few phrases in French because he thought I was french. That idiot tried so hard to be my friend and to welcome me to Japan, he didn’t even realize I was German not French. He tried and tried and I kept getting angry at him the entire time because I had zero idea of what he was saying, even the Japanese parts. I didn’t have a good grasp on the language when I first arrived so everything he was saying was practically gibberish and I thought he was trying to say something insulting to me. It frustrated me endlessly, I had to go to the library and find an English to French dictionary and then translate it from English to German, only to find out that the entire time he was talking to me he was asking if he wanted to be my friend. That idiot mixed up French and German languages in an attempt to ask me to be his friend. He went through the trouble of learning a bit of French just to try and communicate with me, he didn’t even work that hard in his own classes but he worked that hard for me, a complete stranger, a foreigner in a new country. He is an idiot, but he’s a kind idiot.”

‘That’s what he was saying!’ thought Hideyoshi as he remembered that. ‘Akihisa learned all that for someone who at the time was a complete stranger. I never knew that.’ Hideyoshi couldn’t deny his respect for Akihisa grew even more.

“I never knew that.” said Himeji in awe, ‘Oh wow our boyfriend is so amazing.’

“Akihisa really did that,” said Yuuko with a blush on her face, “I knew that idiot would go far if given the motivation, the midterm is an excellent example of that, but that far for a stranger.” Yuuko couldn’t help but feel her heart flutter slightly, “That idiot is really a great guy.”

“Yes he is,” said Minami, “You wouldn’t know it at first but the more you hang around him the more you see how great he is and the more a girl can fall for him.”

Yuuko couldn’t deny that, “That’s true, so Himeji, what about you?”

Himeji thought about it for a moment, “Well my story isn’t all that great but I’ve known Akihisa for a while but I never really knew how I felt until the end of last year, during the finals. I spent so long studying for that test that I ignored my health. When the test finally started I felt dizzy and couldn’t see straight at all, the next thing I knew I was falling but I never hit the ground. Akihisa caught me before I got hurt, he then started yelling at the teacher that I was sick and needed help, but the teacher just said that if either of us left we would fail the test. Akihisa didn’t hesitate, the reason we got the two lowest scores in our grades was because he took me to the nurses office and then stayed until I got better, not just to make sure I was okay but to apologize for missing the test. He didn’t care at all about his test score at all, he just cared about if I was okay or not.”

“Yeah, that sounds like Akihisa,” said Minami with a smile. “Always putting others first.”

Hideyoshi took a sip of his tea, ‘I always knew Akihisa could be selfless but I had no idea that’s why he failed, I always assumed he just flunked the test like I did and just didn’t care about the test scores like me, but I was already doing well in the drama club. Test scores aren’t that important to me, but Akihisa failed because he helped Himeji. Should he even be the worst student? Should it be me?’ Hideyoshi now wondered if Akihisa didn’t do what he did, would he be the one that the teachers used his avatar for help all the time.

“Wait, Akihisa did that for you.” Asked Yuuko as Himeji nodded her head. She was also having the same thoughts as her brother, thought slightly differently, ‘Would I have also abandoned a big test to help someone out?’ She wondered, “Akihisa is a hidden gem.”

“He is.” said Himeji. “That’s why we all like him, he cares deeply about everyone and when push comes to shove he always steps up to the challenge.”

“Especially if he’s properly motivated,” said Minami before getting a worried look, “That might also be why he’s gotten so much attention online, maybe other girls have figured that out by watching his streams.”

Himeji then got a look of horror on her face as she imagined Akihisa having a huge harem. “Too many girls.”

“I also came to that conclusion as well,” said Yuuko as she once again had a serious look in her eyes, “I propose a form of truce between us, so we don’t fight like crazy for Akihisa.”

Minami raised an eyebrow, “Go on?”

Yuuko then began a compelling argument on keeping things civil between the three of them and that she wanted to avoid fighting. Hideyoshi smiled as he looked over and saw that both Himeji and Minami looked like they were accepting the arrangement, ‘Looks like my sister doesn’t need me after all.’ He thought to himself as he got up and exited the teahouse. ‘My sister has this handled and I’m sure she’ll win, I wouldn’t mind if Akihisa became my brother-in-law.’ As Hideyoshi began walking away from the shop he wondered something, ‘Akihisa has changed quite a bit this year, I wonder if it’s time for a change myself.’ Hideyoshi smiled, “Yeah it’s time I make a change.”

Back at the tea shop Yuuko finished her explanation. “So do you girls have any objections?”

Minami shook her head, “Not really, that is a good idea…but….” Minami closed her eyes and thought for a moment, ‘This isn’t good, we wanted her to join us, how is this going to work.’

“I have a better suggestion,” said Himeji as she took out her phone, “Do you remember this one.”

Yuuko looked at the phone and her eyes nearly popped out of her skull as her face turned bright red, “Uhhhh that one, what about that one?”

“Want to try it?” asked Himeji with a smile on her face.

“HUH?” steam was now coming out of Yuuko’s face. “You can’t be serious.”

“I am.” said Himeji without dropping her smile.

Minami looked between the two with a confused look. “Okay, what are you two talking about?” 

Himeji then showed Minami her phone, “This fun little book from Yuuko’s website, from the membership only part of it.”

Minami then began to skim the short book, as she read she felt her face heating up. “Oh uh wow, this is something. I mean we would need to ask Akihisa.”

“YOU SERIOUS?” said Yuuko, nearly shouting, breaking her composure. “I mean, you aren’t actually agreeing to this idea, are you?”

“Well I mean…I’m not flat anymore and neither are you, yours look slightly smaller than mine.”

Yuuko covered her breasts, “I admit I have been taking the breast growing tea and now several of my garments don’t fit much anymore but this is a huge leap.”

“Is it,” asked Himeji, “I could see Shouko doing something like this.”

“Shouko is way different.” said Yuuko but she then remembered it took something drastic to get her man, “And I might be competing against other girls in the future.” Yuuko thought about it for a moment, “Okay, fine, I’m in but you guys are going to be the ones to ask him and to pay for it.” At the end of it Yuuko’s face was beat red and slightly hoping they would say no.

“Okay.” said Himeji with hearts in her eyes.

Minami then took out her phone, “I guess I’ll call Akihisa.”

“Now!” said Yuuko in surprise, “We need to prep beforehand.”

“Oh there he is.” said Himeji as she pointed out of the window.

All of them looked outside to see Akihisa walking down the street holding a few grocery bags and with a smile on his face. “Oh man, I'm so happy I remembered about that sale today. I should have enough chicken for next week.”

“Akihisa!” 

Akihisa turned and saw Himeji with Minami and Yuuko running after her, “Oh hey, what are you guys doing here?”

“Oh just having some girl time over tea,” said Himeji with a smile. “How about you, what are you doing?”

“Oh just doing some grocery shopping and meal prepping for the next week.”

“So you’re not doing anything for the rest of the day, no streaming or anything like that?”

“Nope, in fact since my sister is now staying with me I need to talk to her about times I can do that stuff without bothering her, our apartment isn’t exactly big.”

“She won’t be back anytime soon right?”

“Nah, whenever she goes drinking, she doesn't come back until late in the night.”

“Wait hold it, hold it.” said Yuuko as this was moving way too fast.

“Huh, hold what?” asked Akihisa, confused.

Minami cleared her throat, “Akihisa, I know this is going to sound strange but would you be opposed to us coming by later.”

“No not all, I love hanging out with you girls.” said Akihisa, “I can have some taste testers for desserts.”

“Oh that sounds lovely,” said Himeji with a smile.

“Then would you mind lending us some money,” said Minami trying to hide a blush. “We want to get a congratulation present for you.”

“That makes no sense.” said Yuuko.

“No problem,” said Akihisa as he put down the bags and grabbed his wallet. “How much do ya need?”

“What seriously!?” said Yuuko in a bit of shock.

“Well yeah, you three helped me a bunch when it came to studying even when you didn’t really have a leg in the race but you all still helped me out, which I am grateful for and above all else I trust all of you.” said Akihisa as he handed the money over to Yuuko who was still shocked.

Yuuko’s face began to turn red and her heart began to pound rapidly, ‘This is too sudden and too fast. Wait a minute,’ Yuuko looked at Himeji who was smiling and Minami who was also blushing slightly but having a solid look. ‘Himeji is planning for us to back down and not go through with this but Minami has already had her mind set. The first person wins.’ Yuuko took a deep breath, “Okay, but I want to go first.”

Himeji and Minami looked surprised, while Akihisa just smiled, “Sure, but I’ll make sure to have enough to go around.” Akihisa then picked up his bags, “Well I’ll head back and prep and I’ll see you guys later.”

“Bye,” Said Himeji as she waved goodbye before turning back to Yuuko who was glaring at her. “Yuuko?”

“I know what you’re trying to do, I’ll play your game and I’ll win.” said Yuuko with her voice filled with conviction. “Come on, let’s get the shopping done.”

The two then watched as Yuuko began walking, “Game? What is she talking about?” asked Minami

Himeji shrugged her shoulders, “I don’t know exactly but play along, I think it will play in our favor.”

Minami raised an eyebrow but sighed, “Okay, sure, but tonight is going to be crazy.”

A/N: Okay I wasn't expecting for this to be my next upload but I already had a good idea so I wrote it but I then realized that the chapter was going to be extra long and take more time, so I decided to cut it in half so you might see another chapter from this fic sooner rather than later. We'll see.
