That afternoon.
「…Hmm?」
I had been to the staff room to hand over today’s journal to our homeroom teacher since I was on duty.
And as I returned to the classroom… I found a male friend of mine grinning while intently staring out the window. By the way, the school grounds are visible from the window.
(What is he doing?)
Curious about my friend who was grinning, I secretly peeked out the window from behind without being noticed. Then…
『Fight, oh! Fight, oh!』
Outside on the grounds, female students in gym clothes were running while chanting. It seemed to be the girls from some sports club.
(Ahh, I see… just peeping, huh…)
I thought he was staring at the grounds intently for some reason… but it seems he was just peeking at the girls running.
「You’ll be disliked by the girls if you keep staring like that, you know?」
「Ehehe… wait, eh!?」
So I tried saying that to my friend from behind. He immediately turned around with a very surprised voice.
「Ah, ahh… it’s just you, Kazuki. Don’t scare me like that.」
「Fuun? Perhaps you were doing something shameful that would surprise you?」
「Ba!? N-No way!」
When I asked that, my friend in front of me made such a defense with a rather flustered expression.
So, this guy’s name is Natsue Yuusuke. He’s a male student in the same class as me and has been a very close friend since our first year.
He’s about 175 cm tall, with a fairly good build, and is quite handsome, which makes me envious.
「Eh, it’s not? But no matter how I look at it, it seemed like Natsue was peeping at the girls running on the grounds, though??」
「I-It’s not like that! S-Stop making me sound like some kind of pervert! I was just, um… e-err, just… purely cheering on the students working hard in their club activities!」
「Fuun? …Ahh, I see. That’s what it is.」
Natsue, while looking flustered, suddenly pointed at the leading group of girls running on the grounds.
So when I looked in the direction Natsue was pointing, I saw Sakurai-san running there.

「Haha, I see. Natsue was just cheering for Sakurai-san.」
「Ahh, yeah, yeah… wait, eh!? S-Sakurai-san’s cheering? W-What are you talking about…?」
「Eh, isn’t that it? Natsue is dating Sakurai-san, right?」
「Eh… Ehhhh!? H-How does Kazuki know!? We only started dating a few days ago!?」
Natsue said so with a red face, so I continued the conversation with a grin.
「Ahaha, well, it doesn’t matter that I know about you two, right?」
「Eh? N-No, I’m really curious about how Kazuki knows about that…」
「Well, well, don’t worry about it too much. So? Since Sakurai-san is running, does that mean it’s the girls’ basketball club running on the grounds now?」
I asked Natsue with a smile still on my face. If I remember correctly, Sakurai-san is in the girls’ basketball club.
I vaguely remember seeing Sakurai-san in a basketball uniform during the club relay at the sports festival a few months ago.
「Ah, ahh, yeah. But it’s not just the girls’ basketball club running on the grounds now, the girls’ volleyball club is with them too.」
「Eh? The volleyball club is running too?」
I thought it was just the girls’ basketball club running on the grounds, but it seems the girls’ volleyball club is also running together with them.
「Yeah, that seems to be. The girls’ volleyball club and the girls’ basketball club usually use the gym, but they can’t use it today because it’s under construction.」
「Ahh, I see. Now that you mention it, I thought it was a bit noisy when I went to the staff room, that was the sound of the gym construction.」
「Yeah, yeah. So today, the girls’ volleyball club and the girls’ basketball club are having a joint running practice outside, that’s what Sakurai-san said.」
「Hee, I see. Ah…」
As I listened to Natsue’s story and looked at the girls running on the grounds… I suddenly spotted Sasaki-san running hard with her ponytail swaying.
(I see, now that I think about it, Sasaki-san is in the girls’ volleyball club.)
So, while standing next to Natsue who was cheering for Sakurai-san, I decided to cheer for Sasaki-san in my heart.
Still, Sasaki-san’s appearance while running hard in club activities looks somehow really cool, different from her usual cute look. Also…
(…Yeah, Sasaki-san really has a great figure.)
Also, I can’t help but let my gaze wander to Sasaki-san’s body… but it can’t be helped.
Because unlike her usual uniform, the gym clothes make her body lines much more noticeable. So her voluptuous brea… I mean, glamorous figure is clearly visible, making it a feast for the eyes.
