People are catching on that this is a direct reference to arguably one of the most popular erotic manhwas out there, "Secret Class". The art is amazing but the plot is garbage so I just thought I could do better. Another story that I will be releasing takes serious inspiration from some of Manabe Jouji's work (Ring x Mama and Makunouchi Deluxe) so I'd suggest checking those out.
________________________
I survived class and proceeded to wander around campus until Meg picked me up. She informed me that the date would be tonight which only racketed up my anxiety and Meg had to spend a good portion of the trip home talking me down from the ledge. She assured me that Kristy was well aware of my unique situation and understood this to be a sort of 'therapeutic training'. I wasn't sure if I was okay with someone outside of the family knowing *anything* about my past but I couldn't take back what she said so I kept my mouth shut.
When we had arrived at home, Aunt Kendra and Meg immediately set to work on me, making me change into more presentable clothes. It turned into a fashion show where they would lay out new outfits, have me take them to my room to try them on and then showcase them.
As Val was exiting her room to go to the gym, she saw the commotion and stopped to aid Aunt Kendra and Meg in determining the proper attire for the night.
"I liked the black jeans and navy blue blazer the most," she said, standing in the hallway with arms folded across her sports bra.
"Yea, I think that one looks the most comfortable while also being stylish," Meg commented. She stood close by her mother, looking at me with a careful eye, weighing the different outfits in her mind. I was fidgeting over by the door wearing a very tight green turtleneck and feeling very stiff.
Aunt Kendra moved over toward me and started to smooth my over to the side of my hair. "Well, then it seems like it's a settled matter." Her large breasts bounced with a healthy enthusiasm as she continued to play with my hair. It was quite the sight and I did my best to avoid looking.
I did happen to catch Meg smirking but I ignored it.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Meg was the first to react
"It's Kristy! I'll get it!" She raced down the stairs, heavy footfalls sounding through the house.
Panic settled over me like a tidal wave. Could I really go on a date with a girl? I hadn't ever even gone on a single one before. How was I supposed to do this?
Apparently I didn't have much to worry about. Aunt Kendra made me go finish changing and then brought me downstairs to introduce me. Kristy honestly looked quite a bit like Bella Poarch (I was quickly becoming acclimated to the outside social media world thanks to Meg and Val). She was wearing a gray low cut sweatery top and great sweatpants that looked more presentable than normal sweatpants. Of course, she wasn't as stacked as anyone else in the house but she sure was damn cute.
Everyone essentially dispersed after that. Val snuck away to the gym after introducing herself, Meg went out with friends, Aunt Kendra stayed in the kitchen making us snacks, and I wasn't even sure Amy was home.
Kristy turned out to be really nice, doing most of the heavy lifting in the conversation. It was a relief since I didn't really have to offer anything interesting on my own, just ask questions. We settled on the couch and just talked. She told me about her classes at Meg's university, told me about some of the clubs she was involved in, and even told me about her social media presence, which was apparently something she was attempting to grow.
She had asked me a few questions but I think my short answers indicated that I wasn't really ready to talk about myself and she took it in stride. At some point, Aunt Kendra had delivered us some cheese and crackers, which we both helped ourselves to. After a while, our conversation slowly died down and I flipped on the TV. It took us a minute to decide on a movie but eventually a romcom was selected. It had Andy Samberg and J.K. Simmons in it and apparently Kristy also liked those actors.
We were probably halfway into the movie when Kristy snuggled into me. I had been sitting stock still, straight as an arrow for pretty much the entirety of the date so far. She scooted over and leaned her head on my chest, one hand slipping around my lower waist.
My mouth became dry as a desert and my chest started thump rapidly at her being so close. She must have heard it because then she asked, "You don't mind if I stay here like this, do you?"
"Oh, uh, n-no, it's fine." My stutter had returned, something that came about sporadically and in the worst possible times, like right now. She seemed to take my okay at face value and turned back to watch the movie. I wasn't able to do the same. Instead, everything about her caught my attention and ratcheted up my anxiety another notch. That lavender-scented perfume of hers, the way her hair fell onto my chest, the rising and falling of her own, the slight movements she would make as she watched.
Hell, I couldn't even keep track of the TV. I was doing everything I could to not start hyperventilating. I had never been in a situation like this before and my mind kept flashing back to memories of my uncle's house, dark memories, things he had said to me in the dead of night from his chair in the living room, things that floated behind me like neon signs. I couldn't do this. I had to tell her to get off me.
Just before I could, Aunt Kendra called my name. "Kam, honey, can you help me with something quickly?" Her voice came from the laundry room on the first floor. Immediately, Kristy moved off me.
"Want me to pause the movie?"
"N-no," I said as I rose to my feet. "You can keep w-watching. I'll catch up." And then, like a boy who was about to be scolded by his mother in front of a very cute girl, I trudged over to her.
I saw Aunt Kendra folding some clothes and as soon as she saw me, she walked over to the door and closed it behind me.
"How are you doing, Kam? You seem stressed." She grabbed my shoulders and looked into my eyes, searching for an answer. I turned away from her gaze.
I wrung my hands rather intensely. "I don't know. I'm pretty scared."
"Do you want to continue? Do you feel like you want her to leave?" Her tone was so gentle, so caring that it actually served to soften some of the more debilitating spikes of anxiety although it absolutely did not remove it.
"I-I don't know. I don't know what to do. It's going too fast."
"Ok, don't worry, sweetie. Don't worry." She pulled me into a hug and I couldn't help but notice the way her fleshy breasts felt against my chest. She rubbed the back of my head in a way that actually felt really nice. "Don't worry, don't worry," she whispered into my ear.
She held me like that for a minute and I was filled with the scents of roses and daisies.
She then let me go but placed her hands back on my shoulders and kept me in place. "Now, what does 'too fast' mean?"
I chewed on my lip for a bit before responding. "I don't know. I guess it just means that I don't know what to do or how to interact."
"Ok, got it. Would me telling you what to do help you?"
