"Uncharted Territory"
Part 126
As Kirishima's words of reassurance still lingered in the air, Sera's eyes sparkled with excitement. "I think it's time we took things to the next level," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. Before anyone could react, she pulled out her phone and sent a group message. The response was almost immediate, and within seconds, the door to the room burst open once again. This time, it was Ojiro who walked in, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. He scanned the room, his eyes locking onto Kirishima and me, and then finally, his gaze landed on Sera. "What's all the commotion about?" he asked, his voice laced with amusement. Sera simply shrugged, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "We're just getting started," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. Ojiro's eyes lit up with understanding, and he walked over to us, his eyes locked onto... or rather, in the direction of, Hagakure. Hagakure, who had been quietly observing the scene unfold, seemed to sense Ojiro's gaze. Her face grew hot, and she looked away, trying to play it cool. But it was too late. Ojiro had already spotted her, and with a mischievous glint in his eye, he leaned in and pressed his lips against where he thought Hagakure's lips would be. The room fell silent as we watched Ojiro kiss thin air, but Hagakure's reaction was immediate. Her face grew even hotter, and she stumbled backward, trying to get away from Ojiro's wandering lips. "O-Ojiro, stop it!" she stuttered, her voice barely above a whisper. Ojiro chuckled, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "I knew you'd get flustered," he said, his voice teasing. Hagakure's eyes narrowed, and she stomped her foot, trying to play it cool. But it was clear that she was more than just a little flustered. Kirishima and I exchanged a glance, both of us trying not to laugh at the absurdity of the situation. Sera, however, seemed to be enjoying the show, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "I think it's time we got the rest of the gang involved," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. As she spoke, the door to the room burst open once again, and the rest of our friends walked in, their faces filled with curiosity and anticipation. It was clear that things were about to get a lot more complicated, and I couldn't help but wonder what the future held for all of us.
