A Yandere As A Girlfriend, But That Doesn’t Matter Because When You Tell Her How Much You Love Her,

—It was morning.

As soon as my consciousness was awakened by the light coming through the curtains, I felt my body was heavy.

I went to bed pretty early last night and slept for seven hours, so I didn’t think I was still tired.

So, as usual—

“Heh heh…! The smell of Yuu-kun’s room, the smell of his bedding…! Oh, his sleeping face is so cute too! I want to eat him…! Can I eat him? Is it okay? I’m your girlfriend, right? It’s perfectly fine to eat him, in fact, it should be encouraged…!”

Yeah, I knew it was just Reina on top of me sleeping.

Probably because she wanted to see me, she came to my house so early in the morning.

“Good morning, Reina.”

“Huh!?”

As soon as I called out to her, I pulled Reina’s hand and laid her down beside me.

I laid her down right next to me so I could see her pretty face clearly.

Her eyes were wide open, as if she was surprised by my tug.

Her eyelashes were long, her skin was clear and beautiful, and I was surprised that she hardly wore any makeup.

“Oh, uh…!”

Her pink lips quivered and such a voice leaked out.

Reina’s long, black hair had fallen a little over her face, so she brushed it away with her hand.

Her hair was very shiny and pleasant to the touch, and I wanted to pet her, or rather, stroke her, every day.

“What time did you wake up today, Reina? It’s always nice to see you, but are you okay?”

“It’s okay, it’s just before six o’clock…! Yuu-kun, hey, you’re close…!”

Her face was all red and cute.

She said she was going to eat me, but I wonder if she’s okay with this?

I wish I could have some sometime.

“Shall we sleep together like this?”

“What? That’s so tempting, but my heart can’t take it…!”

“Good luck.”

“Uh, yeah, I’ll do my best…!”

Okay, I was still sleepy, and I’m going to take Reina as my pillow and have another na—

“Stupid brother! Breakfast is already ready, get up!”

Akane opened the door of the room with a loud bang and walked in.

“…You’ve been here again, Reina? I think you’re trespassing.”

Akane looked at me and Reina, and said so with a sigh.

I had no choice but to get up and get out of bed.

“Don’t worry, I gave her permission.”

“No, I’m living with you, so she needs my permission.”

“…That’s for sure. Akane, please forgive me, exempt me by the cuteness of Reina.”

“…I guess this should be considered normal now.”

“Oh, good morning, Akane.”

“Good morning. Would you like to have breakfast with me, Reina?”

“Yes, thank you.”

“Yeah, yeah, I’m glad my sister gets along so well with my future wife.”

“Future wife…!”

“Yes, yes, I’ll get you your dinner!”

Reina froze again, her face reddening, but Akane ignored her, as she was used to, and left the room, heading for the living room.

I took Reina with me to the living room, and the three of us ate breakfast together.

My parents weren’t home, my father had gone on a business trip overseas last year and my mother had followed him.

My dad was a disaster at housework, so my mom had to keep up with him.

It looked like he wouldn’t be back for a few more years, but since both Reina and I were already in high school, we would be fine.

“Did you make this, Akane?”

“Yes, I did.”

“Did you put in the hair I sent you before?”

“I threw that thing away. It’s disgusting.”

“Why? I want Yuu-kun to put my hair in everything he eats…!”

“If you ate hair, you’d have a stomach ache, and you can’t do it physiologically.”

“I’m fine. I can eat Reina’s hair.”

“Shut up, you stupid brother.”

It’s funny, I was just talking about my food.

Anyway, let’s shut up and eat the food that Akane made for us. Yes, it was delicious.

“See, Yuu-kun says it’s okay.”

“Please don’t involve me in your special games. I mean, don’t eat hair, it’s disgusting.”

“Oh, Akane, I’ve always thought you had a surprisingly sharp tongue.”

“Please tell me you’re honest.”

“That’s similar to Yuu-kun. He says everything that comes to his mind.”

“I don’t say things without thinking as much as you do.”

Yeah, it was still nice to see my future wife and sister getting along so well.

So we ate breakfast together and headed off to school.

Reina and I were in the second year of high school and were in the same class.

We were seated next to each other, at the back of the class by the window. I was sitting by the window, and Reina’s seat was next to me.

I had the surname Mikyo, and Reina was Yasukuni, so our attendance numbers were not particularly close.

That’s what my classmates who knew about our relationship between me and Reina did for me.

“I’m afraid if I let Yuu-kun and Yasukuni-san go.”

“Yeah, go with Reina-chan. When you talk to other girls, Reina-chan seems to curse you.”

“We have to make sure that no one but Reina can sit around Mikyo-kun.”

That’s what I mean.

I’m glad that all my classmates were so kind.

It was lunchtime, and Reina and I were seated together, eating our lunches together.

“I made lunch for you, Yuu-kun. If it were up to me, I’d make you breakfast, lunch and dinner. Bodies are made up of food, so the thought of my cooking shaping you makes me so excited that I can’t sleep at night.”

“Thank you, Reina. Someday, when we get married, I think you should cook all my breakfast, lunch, and dinner and build me up.”

“Oh…!”

“Also, you have to sleep well at night, otherwise you’ll get sick.”

“Well, yes, but I can’t sleep at all when I fantasize about you. I can’t sleep at all when I think about what you’re doing right now, or if you’ve taken a bath…”

“Well, maybe if we sleep together you’ll sleep better since you won’t have to think about what I’m doing. Do you want to sleep with me today?”

“What? I’m going to die if I have to sleep with you…!”

Her expression changed so much, from her pupils being fully dilated and giving off a dark aura, to her face turning red and embarrassed, but she was still very cute.

After that, I ate Reina’s lunch and spent a leisurely lunch break.

 

School had ended.

As usual, I went home with Reina, but since she was on duty, she had to go to the staff room, so I waited for her in the classroom.

“Yuu-kun, you’re not going home?”

“Hmm? Yeah, I’m waiting for you.”

As I waited for Reina, fiddling with my phone, two guys from my classmates came over to talk to me.

“Oh, I see. Yasukuni-san was on the day shift, right?”

“…Hey, how long have you been going out with Yasukuni-san?”

“Since eighth grade.”

“Since before high school. I didn’t know that.”

This guy and I had been in the same class since our sophomore year of high school, so he wouldn’t know.

“To be honest, Yasukuni-san is really heavy, isn’t she?”

“Heavy? She’s pretty light. When I woke up this morning, she was on top of me, but she was very light.”

“No, that’s not what I meant. I’m really curious about your situation.”

“It’s like she’s always coming into my house and watching me sleep.”

“Wow, that’s kind of scary, isn’t it?”

“Really?”

I didn’t know about myself, but was it scary to a stranger?

Sure, I’d be scared if I woke up in the morning and a stranger was on top of me, but it was Reina.

“Just looking at you guys at school, I can tell she’s really obsessive.”

“Hey, don’t say that.”

The other friend said so, but he continued with a half smile,

“No, no. Soji would agree, right? Just because Yuu-kun is talking to another girl, she stares at her as if she’s going to curse her. Obsessive is not enough, is it?”

“………”

“Yuu-kun is smart and cool, so I think he’d be pretty popular. It’s like Yasukuni-san is standing in the way of that.”

He smiled and tried to continue,

“I don’t know what Yasukuni-san is thinking. If you’re Yuu-kun, you should be with a better girl.”

“Hey.”

“Hm?”

I grabbed him by the shoulders and interrupted him.

“What? I mean, why are you grabbing my shoulder?”

“Is that all you’re trying to say?”

“Yeah, well… but my shoulder hurts…!”

“I’m asking you if that’s all you want to say.”

“Yes…”

I asked him a simple question, and for some reason he became respectful, but I didn’t really care.

“I’ll answer it then. I’ll tell you what, Reina is not obsessive in that sense, and even if she is obsessive in your eyes, it doesn’t matter. You’re not her boyfriend, and she’s my girlfriend.”

“Uh…”

“And there is no better girl in the world than Reina for me. It’s our children that Reina gives birth to that could be equal to Reina. I and Reina’s child, I’m sure they will be cute. Because it’s that insanely cute Reina’s child.

You don’t know? Reina always cares about sweating when holding hands and casually wipes her palm with her skirt. Her face gets red a lot. That’s cute and I hold hands before Reina wipes her palm every time.”

Why was this guy’s face so pale when I was explaining it to him so carefully?

“Is there anything else you want to ask me? Anything you want to say?”

“No, I don’t… I’m sorry…”

“Okay. I’m glad you understand.”

I took my hand off his shoulder, maybe I gripped it a little too tightly, but that was okay.

“Yuu-kun!”

“Oh, Reina.”

Just as I finished talking to him, Reina came back.

“I’m sorry to keep you waiting.”

“Oh, it’s okay. I’m going home then. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

“Oh, yeah, see you tomorrow…”

“See you later.”

I said goodbye to my two classmates and Reina and I left the classroom.

“What were you talking about?

“I was emphasizing how good you are to me.”

“Huh? Oh, no, Yuu-kun, that’s embarrassing…!”

Reina, blushing and fidgeting, was cute.

 

“Oh my God, I was really scared… I thought I’d die…! He didn’t break my shoulder, did he?”

“I know because I’m in the same class as Yuu-kun and Yasukuni-san, but those two are the ones who can’t hold up without each other.”

“Oh, I thought Yasukuni-san was a obsessive person, but I guess Yuu-kun was a obsessive person too…”

“Do you really think it’s normal for Yuu-kun to be dating Yasukuni-san for four years?”

“Yeah, I know…”

“First of all, it was rude to talk badly about someone’s girlfriend.”

“No, no, I was just doing it for his own good…”

“It’s called minding your own business, you know.”

 

Me and Reina left the school and were walking home hand in hand.

When we held hands, Reina tried to wipe her hands on her skirt as usual, but before she could do that, I took her hand and she blushed in embarrassment, how cute.

“How was your lunch today? Was it good?”

“Of course it was good. It had all my favourite food.”

“Hehe, I’m glad. You said you liked hamburger steaks before, and I saw that you always ate omelette rolls deliciously with breakfast, so I made fried chicken for the first time, but Yuu-kun was meat-based.

But I liked you for that too. I wanted to add tomatoes in a colourful way, but I knew that I wasn’t good at tomatoes.

I wanted to add fish next time, but salmon was the safest. It was eaten by Yuu-kun and became your blood and flesh. I also want to be eaten by Yuu-kun and become his blood and flesh—”

“It’s amazing to think that when I marry my Reina I’ll be able to eat such delicious food every day.”

“Huh?! It’s too early to get married, Yuu-kun…!”

“Really? We’re seventeen this year, and I’ll be old enough to get married next year, so it won’t be long now, will it?”

“Oh, uh, you’re going to marry me as soon as I’m old enough?”

“Yes, of course. But I’m a bit sorry, I was born early, so I have a late birthday.”

I was really very sorry about that.

It would not be right after my senior year of high school, but it would be near my graduation ceremony when I would be registered.

But because I was born early, I was able to meet Reina in the same grade as her.

If I had been born a few months later, I might never have met her, so I was glad I was born early.

“Well, then, let’s go… on Yuu-kun’s birthday next year!”

“Yeah, it’ll be two years later to be exact, but we’ll get married.”

“Yes…!”

Reina gave me the cutest, happiest smile of the day and nodded.

We went to junior high school together, so our homes are surprisingly close, although it was a twenty minute walk.

That’s why on my way home from school, I always stopped by Reina’s house first and left her there to go home.

Today, when I arrived in front of Reina’s house, I found her sister there.

“Oh, sis.”

“Hm? Oh, Rei-chan, welcome back. And you too, Yuu-chan.”

Reina’s older sister, Kamina Yasukuni, smiled at us.

She was two years older than me and Reina, and was in her first year of college.

“Hello, sister-in-law.”

“Well, hello. I’ve gotten used to you calling me that.”

I had already been to Reina’s house many times, so I had met her family.

Kamina had black hair like Reina’s, but it was wavy and a little peculiar.

The fluffiness of her hair seemed to be similar to Kamina’s personality.

“You’ve grown up, Yuu-chan.”

“I’m already a sophomore in high school.”

“You were smaller than me when I first met you, and now I have to look up to you.”

Now I was a head taller than her.

“I used to be able to pet Yuu-chan’s head like this—”

Kamina-san stood in front of me, looking up at me but reaching for my head—and Reina grabbed her arm with force.

“Sis…? What are you trying to do?”

“I was trying to pet him, but you always stopped me like this.”

“Does sister want to steal Yuu-kun from me? If so, I will never forgive you. I won’t give him to you even if it kills me. He is mine and I am his. If you still try to take him, then I can’t help it. I will take care of sister by my own hands—”

“Reina, let’s hug goodbye. Here, give me a hug.”

“Oh…! Uh, yeah, hug…!”

When I hugged Reina from the front, she hugged me back, her face turning red.

Haha, cute, small and cuddly. I couldn’t wait to sleep with her as a pillow.

“Mmmm, you’re warm.”

“…Yuu-kun, please don’t tease Rei-chan too much.”

“Yes, my future husband is mad at me…”

I really couldn’t tell what she was thinking.

Then I said goodbye to Reina and her sister, and I went home.

When I returned, Akane was already home from school.

“Welcome home.”

“I’m home.”

“Clean the bathroom.”

“Okay.”

We talked as we walked through the living room, and I went to my room.

I cleaned the bathroom as I was told and spent some time in my room.

While I was in my room, I received a few messages from Reina. She was really cute.

In the time before dinner, I did some work that I could do at home.

I needed to earn enough money to live with Reina in the future.

What I was doing now was, roughly speaking, programming work.

I only worked after school and before dinner, but I was already earning enough money to be able to support my parents.

We hardly spent any money, so we had probably saved up enough to have a grand wedding.

After finishing my work for the day, I ate dinner with Akane. Akane’s cooking was also very delicious.

I relaxed in the living room for a while, watching TV with Akane, and also talked to Reina through the messaging app.

It was a happy time.

Then, after doing some light exercises, and I took a bath.

As usual, I took a relaxing soak for about thirty minutes.

As I got out of the bathtub and dried myself off, my phone beeped.

Looking at the screen, I couldn’t help but laugh.

“Did she get it over a hundred today?”

Muttering this, I prepared to answer the phone the next time it rang.

My girlfriend had always been adorable.

The End.

I’ll probably do a similar short story next time too. There might be errors since it was so long. Thank you for reading!
