Ayanokouji pov
During the past few weeks since I came back in time, I was enjoying my second chance at going to high school. I haven't told my classmates yet though it was for good reason as desperation is a good teacher.
I was now just sitting on my bed thinking about tomorrow. Tomorrow is the swimming class I'm not sure if I should go all out or if I should just act normal.
Both have their own advantages as now it's my second time, I know I'm not going to get a regular high school life.
I'll just do good.
Tomorrow
When I was waiting in class.
"Good morning Yamauchi!"
"Good morning Ike!"
While arriving at school, Ike called out to Yamauchi with a smile on his face.
It's unusual for those two to get to school early. One week since the entrance ceremony. Ike and Yamauchi have always arrived at school right before the bell.
"Wow~ the lesson is so fun that I can't sleep~"
"Yup, this school's the best—swimming will start soon! I say swimming, but girls are the important part! And by girls, I mean their swimsuits!"
Oh boy.
The girls in the room backed away from Ike and Yamauchi's excitement.
Last time when I heard them I joined them to make friends but that most likely made the girls think of me as a pervert until the race.
"Oi, Doctor. Come over here."
"Fufu, did you call him?"
Sotomura I remember him, he was an otaku who was very good at typing.
"Doctor, can you record the girls wearing swimsuits?"
"Leave it to me. I'll pretend to be sick and skip class to observe them."
"Record? What are you planning to do?"
"Doctor's going to rank the sizes of the girl's boobs. If there's a chance, he'll try to take a picture."
"... Oi oi."
At least even in the first year, Sudou was still better than Ike and Yamauchi.
"Sad."
"...You were here too, Horikita?"
"A few minutes ago. I walked in while you were looking at those boys. You wouldn't be thinking of trying to be friends with them, would you?"
" No I'm going making sure they're not going to do something stupid "
" How do we know you're not going to join them "
" We don't "
she was so annoying at this time.
"Oi Ayanokouji."
Suddenly, Ike called out to me. When I looked up, I saw his smiling face beckoning me over.
"What, what is it."
I heard Horikita tch probably thinking of me also as a pervert
"To tell you the truth, we were going to bet on the the girl's chest sizes."
"We even have a table for the betting odds."
I remember this sheet must like my original timeline Haru-Hasebe is first.
"So, what are you going to do? It's 1,000 points to join."
I knew that half of the girls weren't going to join so I could actually gain a lot of private points betting on Kushida.
" Can I bet on Kushida "
" Of course glad to have you "
Ike smiled at me
"It's fine, we're only playing. There's a lot of people to pick from too."
"I'll do it!" "Me too me too!" "I've scouted boob sizes before too!"
"I'll join too. My bet's on Sakura."
Ahh Sakura, should I be sad hearing that name.
"I'm only saying this to you guys, but I actually confessed to Sakura."
"Ha!? What, really!?"
Ike was shocked he most likely wanted to get a girlfriend but at least he got one in the second year.
"Yea, yea. But this is only between us, ok? I thought she was really ordinary at first. And then I saw her clothes. Those things are huge."
"Stupid, you're asking her because she's big and not because she's cute?"
"I wouldn't date anyone unless they're at the same level as Kushida and Hasebe. I don't have any interest in ordinary girls."
He doesn't know about Sakura's hidden self yet
"Wow, it's the pool!"
After lunch ended, the long-awaited swimming class Ike and the others were waiting for finally came.
Without trying to hide his lust, Ike stood up in excitement. The group faced the indoor swimming pool I also followed stealthily from the back. Or so I thought.
"Let's go together, Ayanokouji."
" Sure "
I need to make distance between us, so I'm not considered a pervert.
The students wrapped themselves with bath towels, but Sudou stood there in only his underwear. In that semi-nude state, he took out his swimsuit from his bag.
He was fit but that was expected.
Sudou left the locker rooms. I also finished changing.
"This school's really the best! It's even better than a city pool!" shouted Ike
"Where are the girls? Are they not here yet?"
Ike looked for the girls, sniffing the air like a dog.
"They take a while to change after all."
"Hey, what would happen if I suddenly jumped into the girl's locker room?"
"They'd beat you up and file charges against you."
"... Don't ruin my fantasies with such a real answer."
He was shivering at that reply.
"If you stare at the girl's swimsuits too much, they'll probably hate you."
"Are there any boys that wouldn't stare!? ... What will I do if I get a boner..."
He wouldn't get a girlfriend in the second year.
"Wow~ This pool doesn't even compare to my middle school one~"
A few minutes after the boys finished changing, a girl's voice could be heard.
"Did, did they finally come!?"
Ike should calm down.
"Hasebe's not here! What, what is this!? Doctor!"
Doctor, who was flustered, looked all around from the observation deck on the second floor.
Ike and co. also looked around, expecting the girls to come out at any time.
I wasn't disappointed since I'd already saw her in a bikini on the cruise ship ( After second island exam )
"Doctor, b-behind you!"
"W-w-w-w-what!?"
Ike pointed his finger with a shout, clearly having noticed something. Hasebe was also on the observation deck next to Doctor.
One by one, all the girls appeared on the second floor. Sakura's also up there.
"What, what is this... What is this situation!?"
Ike buried his face in his hands and collapsed on the spot from the unbelievable turn of events.
I knew that Hasebe doesn't like perverts so it was expected.
"I thought I would get to see big breasts~!"
He's so shameless
"Ike, this isn't a time to be sad. There are a lot of other girls!"
"Y-yeah. Anyone's fine. This isn't a time to feel down!"
"Yeah!"
Yamauchi and Ike affirmed their friendship and clasped each other's hands.
"You two, what are you doing? Looks fun."
"Ku-ku-kushida-chan?"
Kushida interrupted the two boys.
Wearing the school swimsuit, Kushida's curvy body line was on display.
I looked away since I didn't want her attention at least not this early.
"Ayanokouji-kun, do you exercise?
" Sometimes "
" I wasn't expecting an actual answer "
" Huh then I guess you thought wrong "
" Tch '
She looked away probably mad at me.
"Horikita-san, are you good at swimming?"
Even though Horikita had a strange expression on her face, she quietly replied to Kushida.
"I'm not particularly good or bad."
"In middle school, I was really bad at swimming. I practiced really hard, and now I'm a lot better!"
"I see."
Horikita let out an uninterested reply and backed away from Kushida. She stopped the conversation from going any further.
"Alright, everyone gatherー"
"16 people, I see. I expected more people, but I guess it works."
There clearly were students skipping class, but he didn't seem to mind.
"It's a bit sudden, but I'll be examining your abilities after you're done warming up. You guys will be swimming."
"Um sensei, I can't swim though..."
A boy raised his hand apologetically and spoke up.
"As the teacher, I'll make sure that you learn how to swim by the summer. Don't worry."
"There's no need to learn how to swim... We can't go to the beach anyway."
"That's too bad. It doesn't matter if you're bad at swimming now, but I'll make sure everyone learns. Learning how to swim will definitely be useful. I guarantee it."
We would need it
Everyone started the warm-up exercises. Ike kept repeatedly glancing at the girls to take a peak. Afterwards, we were instructed to start the 50m swim. Students who didn't know how to swim were allowed to touch the bottom of the pool with their feet.
I swam about two months before during our second year when I went to a pool with Kei.
"Hehehe, a complete victory. Did you see? My super swimming!"
Swimming casually, Ike got out of the pool with a self-satisfied look.
"Anyway, it looks like mostly everyone can swim."
"Sorry, Sensei. Back in middle school I was called the Flying Fish after all."
"I see. Then you guys can immediately start competing against each other then. 50m freestyle, separate yourselves by gender."
"C-compete!? Are you serious?"
"I'll give the first place winner a bonus: 5,000 points. On the other hand, last place will get supplementary lessons so prepare yourselves."
"Because there aren't too many girls, I'll split you guys into two groups of 5 and give the fastest time the overall victory. For the boys, I'll take the top 5 times and then hold a final round."
I would let Koenji take it
"Kushida-chan Kushida-chan Kushida-chan Kushida-chan Kushida-chan. Hahahaha."
It seems like Kushida completely captured Ike's mind.
"You're scary, Ike—quiet down."
"B-but Kushida-chan is fucking cute. Her breasts are really big too."
That is true
"Everyone, make sure to remember this sight! Today's fap material has been secured!"
"Yea!"
The whistle blew, and the 5 girls jumped in. Horikita is in lane 2. Taking the lead in the beginning, she maintained her lead at a distance. She confidently came in first place.
"Oh! Horikita did it!"
Then came the second race. Kushida was in lane 4. The boys were waving and cheering with smiles on their faces.
"Woooooooo!"
They're some aggressive boys. Some of them even tried to look in between the girls' legs.
I didn't talk to Horikita and just waited
I was put in lane 2, while Sudou was in the first lane.
It would be easier to just lose as Sudou may get mad at me now.
I could still do better and get some respect for him.
When we dived into the pool I stayed near the back until I found where Sudou was then I went at a similar pace.
"Is that even possible, Sudou? You finished in 25 seconds."
I got 27 seconds but that wasn't important
" You did good ayanokouji "
" Thank Sudou "
" I didn't know you had it in you "
" Me too "
"Sudou, won't you join the swimming club? If you practiced, you'd compete pretty well."
"I plan on just playing basketball. Swimming's just for fun."
Not even breaking a sweat from that small amount of swimming, Sudou calmly got out of the pool.
"Ah, Sudou certainly has good reflexes."
Ike elbowed Sudou, feeling jealous.
"Kya—!"
I knew that Hirata would get a lot of fangirls
And none of them stands a chance
Hirata was on the start line.
While Sudou's body gathered the admiration of the boys, Hirata's body gathered the admiration of the girls. Hirata is slender but still well-built. You can call him a slender macho man. Hearing the cheering from the girls for Hirata, Ike made a spitting gesture. Sudou also made a displeased face and glared at Hirata.
"If you win, I'll make sure to destroy you. I'll show you my full power."
Sudou was jealous
When the teacher blew the whistle, Hirata jumped in with great form. As Hirata paddled his arms, the girls on the side were cheering him on. His swimming form looks uselessly cool.
"He's surprisingly fast."
Sudou calmly commented. Anyway, Hirata is a pretty fast swimmer. The other 4 boys were quite a distance from Hirata. His lead incited the girls to cheer him on even more.
I knew Hirata was fast so it didn't surprise me
"Sensei, what was the time?"
Ike impatiently asked.
"Hirata's time is... 26.13 seconds."
"Alright, let's go Sudou. If it's you, you can win! Bring down the hammer of justice!"
"Leave it to me. I'll beat him thoroughly then make his popularity drop to the ground..."
Sudou got fired up from Ike's words, but a loss from Hirata probably wouldn't cause his popularity to drop.
"Hirata-kun, you were really cool! You're not just good at soccer, but also good at swimming!"
"Is that so? Thanks."
"Hey, why are you looking at Hirata-kun with love in your eyes!"
"Ha? You're the one ogling him!?"
"Ki—!"
And so on. Hirata's popularity exceeded frustration and is a shocking thing to watch.
"Stop, you guys. Don't fight over me. I belong to everyone. I want to get along with everyone. Just because I'm good at swimming doesn't mean you should fight over me."
Koenji was still as narcissistic as my timeline so he thought the cheers was for him
Wearing speedos was allowed by the school, but no one else were wearing those. The girls looked away from Koenji's crotch area.
Not only his posture, but Koenji's figure is even better than Sudou's. The boys who were proud about their physicality, including Sudou, watched Koenji swim while gulping.
"I don't really care about winning or losing, but I don't like losing."
Sudou muttered to himself. At the sound of the whistle, Koenji jumped into the pool with great form.
"Wow!"
Sudou let out a surprised voice at Koenji's aggressive swimming. Hirata was also looking in amazement. His speed is really impressive. Of course, Sudou is also fast. Recording the time, the teacher looked at the stopwatch once again.
"Time is... 23.22 seconds."
"As usual, my abdominal, back, and psoas major muscle are in shape. Not bad."
After getting out of the pool, Koenji smiled and brushed his hair.
Still breathing evenly, it doesn't even look like he swam.
"I'm fired up...!"
I knew Koenji could defeat Sudou without much difficulty but he has the best shot except me
I saw Kushida walking us so I left.
" Sigh "
I actually wanted to win the swimming competition but since I was against Sudou I had to lose.
( If he went all out at the first race since Sudou didn't think kiyo was fast it would hurt his ego more than If kiyo already showed he was fast )
End
Too long to make a reaction btw ( I'm too lazy )
