It had been a few weeks into the school year at Mokichi's new school he was getting along well with each of the four Nakashima sisters he spent time with Koharu when they had club at first Mokichi wasn't much of a reader but since being in Koharu's club he started to have an intrest in it he mets Euiko every now and then in the halls and he always gets stopped by her and is forced to have a conversation with her and be stuck in the hall for hours as for Saeko he's had his share of deliverying things to the student council room when he goes Saeko makes him stay a while and they chat through these chats Mokichi found that Saeko is hard for people to study she's told Mokichi multiple times to study hard so he does well not to incure her supposed wrath he decided to take her advice and his grades have never been better.

The one he spends the most time with is Reiko as she and him have the same class together and recently the teacher moved the students around and now Mokichi and Reiko sit side by side they've gotten so friendly with each other that they catch themselves talking to each other while class is going on which gets them in trouble with the teacher but the big part of the whole thing is that each and every lunch period he's always joined by all four of the sisters they eat and talk with each other and when lunch is over they go their seperate ways it was only the week after the second week of the start of the new term that the four sisters asked him if he wanted to walk home together to say the least having four cute girls that were sisters around you the whole time made him the envy of all the other male studnets he'd get dirty glances every now and then but he decided to ingnore it he and the Nakashima sisters were friends and thats what he wanted to keep it as.

It was early in the morning and the start of another day of school Mokichi was walking on his lonesome down the road to the school he let out a sigh "What did I do to Ruri that's making her avoid me so much lately?" Mokichi asked himself earlier before he left the house his sister went ahead without him when he tried to rush and catch up with her Ruri blew up on him she said she didn't want to be seen walking to school with her older brother and she rushed off "That kinda hurt a little bit" Mokichi sighed whaterver he did to Ruri it must have been something really bad Mokichi sighed a second time and continued on his way he saw the fork in the road that lead to both the middleschool and the Highschool he started up the path to his school while casually looking over at the path to the middleschool he gave a sad looking smirk and looked away when he was about half way from his starting point when he saw four figures standing together a bit further in front of him "Who could they be?" he asked himelf not recognizing the four people standing in the middle of the path from where he was.

When he got a little closer the unknow figure turned into famillar ones "It can't be.." Mokichi said a bit unsure of what he was actually seeing which was all four of the Nakashima sisters standing togther looking like they were waiting for someone "Who are they waiting for?" Mokichi wondered his own question was answered when he saw Euiko look his way and smile "Ah! Moki-kun sighted!" she announced the three other sisters looked and smiled when they saw Mokichi coming their way the four of them then rushed over to him Mokichi stopped in his tracks "Morning girls" Mokichi said with a smile "Come on can't you give a better greeting then that?" Euiko said with a chuckle.

 Mokichi sighed "Good morning Koharu, Euiko, Saeko,Reiko" Mokichi said looking at each of them when he said their names "Morning Momo" Koharu greeted back "Mornin' Moki-kun" Euiko said with a grin and a wave "Good Morning to you Mochin" Saeko said giving a graceful bow "Morning Mo-kun" Reiko said with a light smile "What are you four doing waitng here?" Mokichi asked "Oh, well we all decided to wait for you Mochin" Saeko said "Wait for me? Why?" Mokichi asked confused "Well, Koharu here noticed that you come to school by yourself" Euiko said pointing over at Koharu "Don't get the wrong idea I wasn't watching you or anything" Koharu said a bit flustered Saeko chuckled "Anyway, after hearing what Koharu told us we all decided to wait for you to get here every morning and walk to school together" Saeko said with a smile "Oh, you don't have to do that and be late because of me" Mokichi said with a aprecative smile "I usually walk to school with my sister anyway" Mokichi said "Oh yeah, you said that you had a little sister" Reiko said since she was the one out of the four Nakashima sisters that Mokichi spent the most time talking to "What was her name again?" Reiko asked scratching her head.

"Ruri, my little sisters name is Ruri" Mokichi said "Yeah, that's right Ruri, you told me all about how she use to be really attached to you when she was younger" Reiko said hearing her say that made Mokichi remeber what happened at home and he sulked "Hey whats the matter with you all of a sudden?" Reiko asked "Hearing you say that about Ruri made me remember what happened earlier at home" Mokichi said "What happened?" Reiko asked Mokichi sighed "Well,Ruri tried to leave earlier then usual and I tired to rush so I could catch up tp her" Mokichi explained Reiko nodded "So, what happened that's got you so down?" Reiko asked "Ruri blew up on me when I tried to catch up to her" Mokichi said "She said that she didn't want to be caught walking to school with her idiotic brother" Mokichi said paraphrasing what Ruri had actually said and he sulked even more "I don't get it Ruri use to be so attached to me and now all of a sudden she hates my guts" Mokichi said with a sigh.

Reiko giggled "Come on don't be so blue that's just her getting older" Reiko said "She wants to be seen as a girl coming of age not a little girl that's still crazy for her older brother" Reiko said Mokichi sighed "Your right,but I'm just not getting use to it" he said "Come on cheer up I'm sure Ruri still loves you even if she doesn't show it" Reiko said Mokichi smiled "Thanks" he said Reiko turned her face "Your Welcome" Reiko said "Reiko? Something wrong?" Mokichi asked Reiko jolted and turned her face forward "No! Nothing's wrong!" Reiko said laughing nervously Mokichi nodded Euiko coughed to get everyones attention "So, Moki-kun" Euiko said "What?" he said arching an eyebrow "What do you think about having four cute sisters waiting on you each and every morning?" Euiko said giving a flirtasious wink "Uhm, I think I could get use to it" Mokichi said "Good then look forward to meeting us every morning" Euiko smiled Mokichi nodded "Well then, now that that's all setteled should we head to the school?" Saeko said "Sure" Mokichi said the four sisters smiled as Mokichi joined them and they walked to the school building when they walked in all eyes were on them Mokichi felt a bit disturbed by having so many peering eyes on him "This feals like when I was back at Kurogage with-" Mokichi stopped himself before he even finished his thought "No there's no way this is like that" Mokich told himself he wasn't in a harem he was just friends with the four Nakashima sisters and nothing else after making their way to the middle of the hallway from the enterance they gave each other a till later wave and went their seperate ways.

 Saeko had to go directly to the student council office every morning Euiko and Koharu's classes were in the same area of the school so they walked off to class together and since Mokichi and Reiko were in the same class they walked down the hallway to their classroom "So, your really taking this whole Ruri getting older thing pretty hard aren't you?" Reiko said "Yeah, but I guess I'll just get acustomed to it eventually" Mokichi said "That's the spirit!" Reiko said "It's just I don't know if it's something I did that made her start to hate me" Mokichi said with a sigh "Come on Mo-kun do you really believe your sister hates you?" Reiko asked "Maybe a little" Mokichi said "You sound like a father whose daugther just said he was no longer cool to her" Reiko said "Is that what I look like?" Mokichi asked giving a light chuckle "Yeah,you reak of it!" Reiko laughed Mokichi couldn't help but laugh as well it was good to talk with Reiko it made him feal like he could be like he was before he had come to Kuzuryu after what happened at Kurogage Mokichi and Reiko kept talking even after they got into the classroom and sat down at their desks they stayed facing one another and kept on talking and laughing but when the teacher walked in Reiko looked up "Well, guess our conversation will have to wait until lunchtime" Reiko said "Looks like it" Mokichi said giving a grin and the two of them finally looked away from each other and turned and faced forward and as the teacher started class in the middle of class Mokichi couldn't belive how much time had passed since the first day of school when he met all four Nakashima sisters and now the five of them were great friends with each other and Mokichi couldn't be happier there was no way he'd hurt another girl with the way he had things "This is a good thing" Mokichi said as he focused back on the lesson at hand.

Later at lunchtime he and Reiko left the classroom and made their way to the cafetiria and sat down at their designated table and waited until the other three sisters showed up Euiko showed up frist fallowed by Saeko with Koharu the five then did as the always did and talked and joked with each other "My, my, it seems your sister was quite attached to you when she was little Mochin" Saeko said "Yeah, tell me about it" Mokichi said "Now, it's like I don't even know who she is anymore" he added "I know what you mean" Saeko said with a understanding smile "I went through that three times with them" Saeko said referring to her three younger sisters "Really?" Mokichi said "Oh yes, Euiko was the first she unglued herself from me at first I thought I did something wrong" Saeko said "But, then I realized that Euiko was just growing up" Saeko said "Then it was Reiko's turn" Saeko said looking at Reiko "I used to bring her to school every morning with Koharu then when she turned ten she up and told me that she could go on her own" Saeko said "Man, that must have been something having two of your younger sister saying they no longer want to be seen with you" Mokichi sighed since he was now in the same situation "Hey! It's not like I was embarassed to have Nee-san take me to school" Reiko argued "I just didn't wanted to show her I was old enough to get to school on my own" Reiko said blushing in embarassment "Yes, yes I know Reiko, you always were a kind girl thinking of others before yourself" Saeko said in praise.

Reiko blushed harder "Nee-san" she said with a happy smile "So, had Koharu gone through that faze yet?" Mokichi asked "Nope, Koharu-chan's never left my side" Saeko said as she petted Koharu's head which made he smile and giggle happily "I wish Ruri were like Koharu-chan" Mokichi said "Koharu-chan please swap places with Ruri!" Mokichi said saying it as a joke but for some reason Koharu to it literally "Momo.." she said her face red "If you want me to, I'd be glad to swap places and be your sister" Koharu said with a shy smile on her face as she fidgeted her fingers "Uhm, Koharu I didn't mean that literally" Mokichi said Koharu's face went bright red in embarassment "Re...Really?!" she gasped flustered Mokichi nodded Kohaur laughed nervously "Of course you were I knew that I was just playing along with your joke" Koharu said laughing nervously again "Really? You had me going there for a second Koharu-chan" Mokichi said "I did, did I?" Koharu said with a smile but after that exchange Koharu avoided eye contact with Mokichi "Well, all joking aside" Saeko said with a light laugh "I'm pretty sure you sisters just getting to old to be hanging around her brother" Saeko said "She wants to make freinds he own age" Saeko said "Maybe even fall in love" Euiko chimed in "No way" Mokichi said "What?" Euiko said "There is no way I'd let my sister go out with a boy while she's so young" Mokichi said crossing his arms "Geez, what are you?" Some loli-con father?" Euiko said "No, I just don't think Ruri is old enough yet for a relationship" Mokichi said defending himself "Yep, definatley a loli-con father" Euiko chuckled "Fine, I'm just worried that she gets her heart broken" Mokichi said.

 "Ruri is my sister I wouldn't like it if some boy decided to break her heart" Mokichi said "Does that sound better?" he said looking at Euiko who was dead silent and her face was flushed red "Ye..Yeah" Euiko said "My, my, You really do care for your sister don't you?" Saeko said "Yeah, my father wasn't there for us so I had to step in and take his place" Mokichi said "And I don't know what I'd do if Ruri got hurt" Mokichi said "Oh my, your a really dedicated brother aren't you" Saeko said blushing a bit "Well I did take care of her when Mom couldn't" Mokichi said Saeko smiled "So, maybe that's why" Mokichi said with a smile "Uhm, Mochin" Saeko said "Yeah, what is it? Mokichi asked "If you don't mind there's something I'd like to talk about with my sisters" Saeko said "Oh, go ahead" Mokichi said Saeko smiled "No, no, it's something just between us" Saeko said "Oh, okay then" Mokichi said understanding what Saeko was asking for he got up and left the table "Take your time" he said before he vanished out of sight "Thanks don't go to far we'll call you when you can come back" Saeko said Mokichi nodded and left the cafeteria.

Saeko sighed as blush spread across her face she looked at her three sisters and they all had red on their faces "Okay, I'm just going to come out and say it" Saeko started "I think I might be falling for Mochin" Saeko said she looked at her three sisters and they didn't seemed all that surprised at their eldest sisters words "Uhm..I..I think I have feelings for Momo" Koharu said blushing in embarassment "Well, if were all coming clean then" Euiko said "Then me as well" she said her cheeks red "I see, and you Reiko?" Saeko said looking at Reiko both Koharu and Euiko looked at Reiko whose face was afalmed with red she didn't need to say anythng her sisters knew well that she had feelings for Mokichi as well Saeko sighed "Well, this is a big problem isn't it?" Saeko said the three other sisters nodded "To think we'd all fall in love with the same guy" Euiko said "Well, he does fit each of our ideal type of guy" Reiko said breaking her silence Saeko nodded as did Koharu and Euiko "What the heck do we do Nee-san?" Euiko said looking at Saeko as did Koharu and Reiko.

Saeko thought for a bit "I guess there's only one thing to do" she said "And that would be exactly?" Euiko asked "We might have to start trying to get Mokichi intreasted in one of us" Saeko said "You want us to fight over Mo-kun?!" Reiko gasped the people in the lunch room looked over Reiko gave an apologetic smile and lowered her voice "Nee-san what are you thinking we shouldn't do that!" Reiko said "No, we're not going to fight for him!" Saeko said "We...aren't?" Reiko said confused "We'll have every available chance to charm him" Saeko said "And then at the end of the year he'll choose one of us" she said "I see, so just the normal way we've done things till now but, more serious" Euiko said Saeko nodded.

"Okay I think that's good and all but what about Moki-kun?" Euiko said "Your right" Reiko said Saeko bit her finger "We're going to have to let Mochin know our feelings" Saeko said and she blushed hard after her own words as did her sisters "And then we'll tell him our plan"Saeko said "You think Mo-kun will go along with this nee-chan?" Reiko asked. Saeko sighed "I hope he does, if not we might ruin our friendship with him" Saeko said and a bleak look crossed the other sisters faces and they looked at each other and they nodded "Okay, one more thing before we call Mochin back" Saeko said "What is that nee-chan?" the other three sisters asked "If Mochin goes along with this, I want us to make a promise" Saeko said and her three sisters looked at her "Let us promise that no matter who Mochin chooses we won't have any hard feelings towards each other" Saeko said the three sisters looked at each other and nodded to each other and faced Saeko and nodded together.

 "We promise nee-san" they said "Good, now, let's call Mochin back shall we" Saeko said the three sisters nodded in agreement "Mochin, you can come back now!" Saeko called and Mokichi walked back into the lunchroom and sat back down in his spot at the table "All done talking?" Mokichi asked with a smile "Yes, we sure are" Saeko said "Say Mochin" she said "What you need me to step out again?" Mokichi asked "Oh no, it's just I wanted to know if you wouldn't mind meeting us in Koharu's clubroom after school ends" Saeko said "Sure, I don't mind I just have to let my mom know I'll be a bit late getting back home today" Mokichi said "Oh, good" Saeko said before Mokichi could ask any questions as to why he was to meet all four sisters after school the lunchbell rang ending the lunch period "Ah! The bell we should all head back to class!" Saeko said "Right girls" she said looking at her sisters "Yes nee-san!" they said Euiko and Koharu rushed off quicker then usual "You two should get to class as well" Saeko said looking at Reiko and Mokichi "Right! Come on Mo-kun! Seeya nee-san!" Reiko said as she grabbed Mokichi and pulled him from the table "Well okay, seeya this afternoon Saeko" Mokichi said "Of course" Saeko said as she waved and watched the two of them vanish out of sight and then she made he way out to in the hallway Reiko was pulling Mokichi through the hallway back to class "Woah! Reiko slow we'll make it back on time!" Mokichi said.

Reiko stopped "Ah yeah, your right" Reiko chuckled as she let go of Mokichi "Anyway, I never got to ask why do you guys want to see me after school today?" Mokichi asked "Uhm..uh.." Reiko stuttered "Well, we want to talk to you about something" Reiko said "Oh, what about?" Mokichi asked Reiko was caught between a rock and a hard place "Just something important" Reiko said trying to be as vauge as she could be "And that would be?" Mokichi said wanting her to elaborate Reiko thought of someting on the spot "It's a secret until you meet us this afternoon" Reiko said "Okay, then" Mokichi said Reiko faced away from Mokichi and sighed somehow she had gotten out of her tight situation she then quickly looked back at him "Let's get back to class shall we?" Reiko said Mokichi nodded and they continued their way back to class. [Ch.3 Part 1 END]
