I am that male friend in the harem story

While Ishigami knew that Chika planned to do something naughty with him as they were together, alone, it was fine, he thought, since he really didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble. 

The peace that he had sought after had come after his long struggle, so was he going to face another storm? 

As a man, he didn't fear this storm and would face it fearlessly, if possible, but he wanted a moment of peace after what had happened to him after his migration. 

'Now that you mention it, have I ever rested?' 

In the beginning, Ishigami was very busy, facing many things, whether it was to clear up his stigma or complete his mission. By then, everything was in chaos, but fortunately, he was okay. 

Yet, he knew that as long as he let his guard down, then everything would be over, especially when no one knew what a woman would do, especially when they were creatures that moved based on their emotions. 

'But...' 

Ishigami had a certain thought within his mind when he observed the microexpressions of both Shirogane and Kaguya, yet it was quite hard for him to learn anything, especially when Kaguya's eyes had been locked at him as if trying to seal all of his intentions, so he wouldn't be able to learn anything. 

'Let's give up.' 

Curiosity kills the cat. 

Ishigami knew well that this sentence wasn't just for fun or a cool phrase for a novel or other works; instead, it told someone that knowing something they shouldn't get would lead them into trouble rather than a good ending. 

Ignorance is bliss, he thought. 

Without knowing anything and remaining oblivious of everything, how wonderful it was. 

Yet, Ishigami had his doubts and needed to understand everything since he wished that he wouldn't change the original plot and the romance between Shirogane and Kaguya. 

Regardless of what Ishigami thought, Shirogane felt that Chika's idea wasn't bad at all. 

Kaguya also didn't think anything was wrong with Chika's words, especially when she had seen and heard the performance between Chika and Ishigami in the music room. 

Still, when Shirogane made up his mind, Kaguya said, "Kaichou, let Fujiwara-san and Ishigami stay together to prepare for the performance. We will be the ones who go out and manage the rest." 

"...okay." 

Kaguya nodded when she heard Shirogane's answer, then looked at Chika and said, "Fujiwara-san, I hope that you don't disappoint us with your performance." 

"Of course~!" Chika's smile bloomed as bright as the sunshine when she got Kaguya's assist. Hugging Ishigami subconsciously, she looked at the two and said, "We will make the best performance!" 

"....." Ishigami. 

"Right, Yuu?" 

Watching Chika's silly smile, Ishigami was a bit helpless, but he nodded. "Okay." 

"...don't be too crazy, okay?" Kaguya somehow felt worried about leaving the two after she made her decision. 

"It will be fine! We will be focusing on learning music! Also, is it okay to add an anime song?" 

"...just think of what is suitable for the occasion, okay? Why do you want me to sing an anime song?" 

"It's because it will be fun! We are going to meet our sister school, so we have to go all out!" 

"But that doesn't mean that we can sing anything!" 

"Yuu, have confidence! Your voice and skill are great!" 

"....." 

Why did Ishigami feel that Chika talked about something else when she said that sentence? 

"We have to show them our wonderful culture!" 

"...then, you want me to sing a strange song?" 

"Why not?" 

Cough! Cough! 

Shirogane coughed, trying to stop their argument, and said, "I will leave the performance to the two of you. How about we list everything so we can start the preparation right away?" 

"Okay." 2x

While Ishigami and Kaguya readily agreed, Ishigami could still feel Chika, who hadn't given up, wishing him to sing a strange song of her choice. 

Only, Shirogane stared at the two with doubt, feeling strange by how close they were, but—

"By the way, is it only me, or have you two become so close, Kaguya-san, Kaichou?" 

Chika narrowed her eyes as she unexpectedly asked such a question. 

"..." Shirogane, Kaguya, and Ishigami. 

While this is what Ishigami wished for, he felt strange for Chika to suddenly ask such a question, but he also felt that the two were close, and if they were really dating, it was all good, right? 

Shirogane and Kaguya had gone out together three times, and it wasn't weird for the two to be together. 

This is what Ishigami wished for, though, but the truth is he wasn't sure at all. 

However, Chika thought differently since she didn't want Kaguya to be stolen by Shirogane! 

"No, you two can't become closer! Kaguya-san is mine!" 

Chika stood up abruptly and hugged Kaguya tightly, pressing Kaguya's small head on her huge chest. 

"....." 

Ishigami wondered whether he should say something about this situation, but his focus was on Shirogane instead, wondering what Shirogane would say. 

"Stop saying something stupid. You need to prepare for the performance, right? Hurry up and go to the music room to make up a plan for what kind of song you will play."

Chika's eyes quickly shone brightly when she heard Shirogane's words and let off Kaguya, who almost lost her breath due to the two immense pressures. 

However, she didn't let go of this chance and came to Ishigami's side hurriedly. "Let's discuss the music, Yuu!" 

"Okay, okay. You don't have to pull me." 

As the two left, Shirogane and Kaguya were all alone together, staring at each other with slightly awkward expressions. 

"...let's prepare everything together, Kaichou." 

"Yes, Shinomiya." 

Yet, Kaguya was sure that Chika must be doing something stupid, but she didn't want them to be hurt, so she thought to contact Hayasaka to protect them so nothing would happen. 

Still, Hayasaka, who received Kaguya's instruction, was helpless, but she didn't reject it and just stood next to the door of the music room, squeezing her legs tightly, hearing the sweet and spoiled moan of Chika's. 

Chika no longer felt the pain of losing her first time; instead, all she felt was happiness and the joy that came from their exchange. Ishigami was rough, yet even so, she loved it and wished to be with him more before she rested by leaning on his chest with a gaze full of affection toward him. 

"It's hot here." 

Kissing her soft hair, Ishigami couldn't help but complain about the place that Chika had chosen. 

"...then, do you want to go to my house later?" 

"Your house?" Ishigami was stunned, but Chika's expression was calm and even slightly lustful, "We can talk, discuss, and practice there since my house has a studio." 

"...." 

"...is that okay? Is your parents okay with me being there?" 

Ishigami didn't reject her proposal, but he had to say that this girl was so bold. 

It was said that those who were proper were mostly a pervert as they often suppressed their desires, so while clinging to him like a baby, Chika whispered, "Um~! On that day, my parents and sisters will be out, so we can have a proper practice there~!" 

"Okay!" 

Ishigami was a decisive man, and he would be lying if he wasn't excited to visit Chika's house. Still, before that, let's stay together for a little longer. 

Kissing each other's lips, they couldn't let go of each other until Ishigami was about to leave when he was pulled by someone. 

"Go with me after this." 

Hayasaka felt her body scorching after she heard Chika's sweet cry, so she wanted to do the same. 

While Ishigami was surprised, he readily agreed since this was his duty, but then, when they were about to leave, someone unexpectedly called him out. 

"Ishigami!" 

"Kaichou?" 

Ishigami was startled, but Hayasaka's expression was slightly unnatural. 

Probably because Shirogane's eyes were just Ishigami, so he didn't notice Hayasaka and only looked at Ishigami. 

"Can you go out with me?" 

"Hmm?"
