Amy, caught off guard, looked at Souta with a mix of guilt and concern. Steff, standing firm, met Souta's gaze, a silent promise of support and understanding.
In that moment, the threads of their relationships hung delicately in the balance, waiting to be rewoven in the face of an uncertain future.
"What are you two doing in front of my room in the middle of the night?" I've become so sensitive to sounds ever since the apocalypse started, that's why I noticed their presence.
Souta's voice cut through the tension, drawing Amy and Steff's attention. Amy stammered, trying to find the right words, "We... um, we were just talking, Souta. About everything that happened."
Steff chimed in, her tone steady, "We were concerned about you, and we thought talking might help."
Souta's weary eyes shifted between the two of them, sensing the underlying currents of emotion. "In front of my room, though?" he questioned, a hint of amusement playing on his lips.
Amy, feeling a bit flustered, explained, "We didn't mean to eavesdrop or anything. We just ended up here."
Souta's expression softened, understanding the genuine concern in their eyes. "Thanks for caring. It's been a rough night."
Steff nodded, offering a reassuring smile. "We're here for you, Souta. No matter what."
As they stood in the moonlit hallway, the bond between the three friends felt both fragile and resilient, tested by the challenges of an unpredictable world. The echoes of their conversation lingered.
Souta, taking a deep breath, appreciated the honesty that hung in the air. The vulnerability of the moment was palpable, a stark contrast to the harsh realities outside.
"I never expected things to unfold like this," Souta admitted, his voice carrying the weight of introspection. "But honesty is what we need in times like these. Thank you both for being candid-" before I could finish my sentence, Amy kissed me!
Amy, searching for words, finally spoke, "Souta, I... I love you. I've loved you for a long time, and I didn't want to complicate things, especially with everything going on." She said embarrassed for whay she did.
Steff, standing by Amy's side, take the chance and also kissed me! And she added, " I love you too, Souta. I know it's unexpected, and I don't want to jeopardize our friendship, but in this chaos, I also want to be there for you in a way that goes beyond friendship."
"Wha- what are you two doing!? Kissing me like it was nothing!" That was my first kiss! Thou I know them for long but those are still my first kiss, my heart is pumping non stop, I can only look at those two romantically now! I'm even hard! Goddammit at time like this.
Caught off guard by the unexpected kisses, I stumbled over my words, my face turning shades of red that mirrored the tumult within me.
"What are you two doing!? Kissing me like it was nothing!" I exclaimed, My heart racing at a pace that matched the chaos of the world outside. "That was my first kiss! Though I know you both for a long time, those are still my first kisses. I can only look at you two romantically now!"
Amy and Steff exchanged glances, a mixture of surprise and sheepishness crossing their faces. Amy, still recovering from her bold move, stammered, "I... I didn't mean to. It just felt like the right moment, and I got carried away."
Steff, with a playful smirk, added, "Well, I couldn't let Amy have all the fun, could I? And besides, you need all the comfort you can get."
I torn between confusion and flustered amusement, found myself in a surreal moment where the lines between friendship and something more became blurred. The moonlight cast a gentle glow on the us, creating an atmosphere that seemed to amplify the complexities of their newfound connections.
Then; Steff proposed a solution. "Then let's both become Souta's girlfriends."
Amy hesitated, concerned about the legality of their actions. "But isn't that illegal?"
Steff countered, "But the world is already on the brink of destruction. Why should we adhere to rules? We've already resorted to stealing"

Though Amy felt a moral conflict, she ultimately made up her mind. "Alright! I'll also become Souta's girlfriend."
"Caught in the whirlwind of their impromptu decisions, I couldn't shake the feeling of being a mere spectator in my own life. "Hey, stop talking like I'm not here. You two decided on your own again without my consent..." I tried to inject reason into the surreal situation.
Steff, with a teasing smile and a firm grip on my arm, countered playfully, "Souta. Why hesitate? Two girls want to be yours."
Amy, seemingly more emboldened after her earlier confession, chimed in, "Don't you have a man's pride? Embrace it!"
With a mix of confusion and amusement, I found myself being led into a room by Steff while Amy locked the door. "Come, hurry," Steff giggled, an excitement in her eyes that was both infectious and perplexing. As we entered the room, the atmosphere became charged with an unpredictable energy.
As the two of them, clad only in underwear, made their way towards the bed, the room became a canvas for the unexpected. The air thickened with a mix of anticipation, confusion, and the undeniable allure of the unknown. In this unpredictable world, where survival was paramount, the lines between friendship, romance, and the complexities of human connection blurred in ways I hadn't imagined.
The room pulsed with an unspoken tension as Amy and Steff approached, their gazes filled with a mix of determination and desire. Struggling to find my footing in this unexpected scenario, I couldn't help but feel a cocktail of emotions – curiosity, uncertainty, and a hint of excitement.
Steff, still wearing that mischievous smile, touch me gently. "Come on, Souta, why resist when the world around us is falling apart? Let's find comfort in each other."
Amy, with a touch of shyness, joined Steff at the edge of the bed. "We care about you, Souta. In this chaos, maybe we can create something beautiful for ourselves."
As the moonlight streamed through the window, casting a soft glow on the scene, I found myself torn between the norms of the past and the unpredictable present. The room became a sanctuary of conflicting emotions, where the boundaries of friendship and something more blurred like shadows in the dimly lit corners.
Caught in the undertow of their bold decisions, I took a deep breath, grappling with the realization that survival in this new world extended beyond just physical needs. As Amy and Steff drew closer, the choices we made in this moment seemed to echo in the silence, shaping the contours of a connection that defied the crumbling reality outside.
We spent the night intimately connecting, alleviating our shared frustrations and seeking solace in each other's company. Laughter and pleasure filled the air, and the echoes of our shared desires resonated throughout the room. In the embrace of passion, Amy and Steff clung to me, their desires unrestrained and their yearnings met with an equal fervor.
As the night unfolded, the boundaries between lust, love, and friendship intertwined, creating a tapestry of shared experiences. The moonlight, a silent witness to our newfound connection, painted a delicate picture of vulnerability and trust in the dimly lit room.
In this moment of shared intimacy, the complex dance of emotions unraveled further, revealing layers of connection that extended beyond the confines of the world outside. As we navigated this uncharted territory, the night became a testament to the resilience of human bonds in the face of an uncertain reality.
The following morning, I awoke, my hands feeling an unexpected weight. Confused, I glanced down to find Steff and Amy, both naked, their heads resting on my hands.
Carefully extricating their heads from my grasp, I realized, to my surprise, that I, too, was unclothed.
As the memories of the previous night slowly flooded back, I couldn't help but let out a sigh. "So, I did it, huh?"
Getting out of bed, I dressed myself and headed to the kitchen, my mind filled with a whirlwind of thoughts. Unaware of the passing time, Steff and Amy, now dressed, joined me.
The atmosphere carried a mix of post-intimacy awkwardness and unspoken understanding. Breakfast was a quiet affair, punctuated only by the clinking of utensils against plates. The weight of the morning-after lingered in the air, and as we navigated the shared space, it became clear that the dynamics of our relationship had evolved into uncharted territory.
Lost in contemplation, I found solace in the steaming cup of coffee before me. The morning sun spilled through the kitchen window, casting a warm glow on the complexities that now shaped our connection. In the silence that followed, I wondered how this shared experience would resonate in the days to come, as we faced the uncertainties of a world transformed by both external chaos and intimate revelations.
As Amy and Steff approached, I could sense the weight of the previous night lingering between us. Amy began tentatively, "Hey..."
I immediately stood up, ready to apologize. Bowing my head, I uttered, "I'm sorry! I let my anger and frustration affect both of you."
The two of them exchanged glances and giggled. "Don't worry about it. We had time to think it through," Amy reassured me.
Steff, with a determined expression, declared, "She's right. Souta, we were serious when we said we want to be your girlfriends."
Shock and surprise painted my face as I regarded them seriously. "What? But... I'm confused. What do you mean by that?"
Steff, with a hint of mischief, exclaimed in a loud voice, "After doing something to us like this, you aren't going to marry us!?"
"But..."
"I'm just kidding. Of course, you can decline if you wanted to," Steff said with a playful grin.
"But, Steff..." Amy looked at Steff with a worried expression.
Steff reassured her, "It's fine. It was my decision that you have also gotten part of this crazy thing."
Feeling a mix of confusion and gratitude, I confessed, "This feels wrong in any way, but I have no right to say that after what is happening to the world and what I have already done. I'm sorry that you two have to experience this, but to my reply, yes, I too love the two of you. But are you sure about this? Loving the same man, sharing with me?"
Excitement radiated from both of them as they replied in unison, "Yes!"
"Souta has been my childhood crush ever since the day we met. Day after day, my feelings only got stronger. I love you, from the bottom of my heart!" Amy said, her eyes filled with happiness.
"I too, I admire you for who you are, for how brave and amazing you are. You may say that you are like the other boys we can see around, but you're wrong! A normal high-school boy can't immediately make a decision in that very moment, scared and unsure, yet you keep deciding like it's nothing. I also love you, Souta. Please treat us equally with your love," Steff expressed her thoughts.
I smiled, genuinely touched. "I'm happy that both of you have chosen me. I love you both, equally, I promise that I will do my best to treat you two right" We then shared a heartfelt hug, embracing the complexities of our evolving connection in this unpredictable world.
After our heartfelt conversation, we sat down for breakfast, the atmosphere carrying a blend of intimacy and the weight of the world outside.
"What should we do now? We've acquired a stronghold for us to stay, but that itself is not enough," Steff pondered while eating.
"Eh? Why? Can't we just plant some vegetables and live here by ourselves?" Amy asked between bites.
"True, we can be self-sufficient with the water well and the generators, but that alone isn't enough. It takes time for the vegetables to grow, and by that time, we might have already succumbed to starvation. Our first move is more likely to search this mansion for any useful items. After that, we'll plan our next move."
As we discussed the practicalities of survival, I couldn't help but marvel at the pragmatic approach Steff took. It was a stark reminder that even in the midst of newfound connections and unconventional relationships, the harsh reality of survival in this apocalyptic world demanded careful consideration and strategic planning.
