Pre Midterm Shenanigans

*Kachak!*

Fuutarou chuckled to himself as he took a picture of the Nakano sisters gathering around the coffee table in he living room and sleeping around it.

They all had their own blankets covering them, courtesy of Fuutarou going to each of their bedrooms to get them and covering them with it before he went to sleep himself.

Fuutarou stared at each of the girls' sleeping faces. They looked so peaceful and he couldn't help but blush at the sight of it.

"What are you doing?" Fuutarou looked at the yawning Itsuki who just woke up. Fuutarou shrugged.

"Nothing much, just in disbelief at how beautiful the five of you are." Fuutarou replied casually before pointing at the clock on the wall.

"Better start waking your sisters up Itsuki, school starts at 8:30 and the exams begin 15 minutes later." Fuutarou advised her. Itsuki nodded before yawning loudly again.

Fuutarou chuckled before he got started at tidying up the coffee table which was filled with the Quints' respective pencil boxes, textbooks, calculators and more.

"So sleepy aren't we?" Fuutarou smiled at the waking Miku who yawned in response. He patted her head gently, making her blush at the affection she was receiving.

"Good morning!! Uesugi-san!!" Yotsuba greeted energetically. Fuutarou grinned at her.

"Morning Yotsuba! Better get changed quickly. I'll get started on breakfast soon, after I wake this little sleeping beauty up." Fuutarou chuckled at Nino who had a line of drool flowing down her mouth as she slept on the sofa comfortably.

"Oh princess~ Princess~ Time to wake up~" Fuutarou called Nino with a soft voice while he shook her gently. Nino groaned as her eyes fluttered.

"Five more minutessss Itsukiii...." Nino slurred as she tried to go back to sleep. Fuutarou chuckled and shook his head.

"Oh no, I'm not Itsuki. Since when does Itsuki have blonde hair?" Fuutarou asked as Nino's eyes immediately widened as she focused on what's in front of her.

She blushed vividly as she stared at Fuutarou's handsome face. Fuutarou grinned at her.

"Morning~"

"Kyaa!!!"

"Woah!" Fuutarou yelled as he dodged multiple kicks from Nino. He pushed them away gently as a flustered Nino started backing up while sending kicks at him.

Itsuki, Miku and Yotsuba who were watching this scene laughed at the funny scene.

"Were you going to kiss me?!" Nino shouted as she threw a pillow at Fuutarou who leaned his head out of the way and grabbed it before it could fly away from him.

"Although I would love to, this isn't the perfect time for such actions!" Fuutarou shouted back, enjoying the banter with the social butterfly.

"What's all this noise?" Ichika yawned as she slowly got up. She looked at Fuutarou who was happily arguing with a flustered Nino.

Ichika smiled and got up before she walked towards Fuutarou who dodged and grabbed a couple more pillows thrown at him by Nino.

"Good morning darling~" Ichika greeted Fuutarou and hugged him lovingly. Her sisters froze in shock at Ichika's actions. Fuutarou sighed and smiled down at the girl.

"Good morning Ichika. Go take a shower and get ready." Fuutarou requested. Ichika pouted and looked up at him.

"Aww~ Straight to business already? Where's my good morning kiss?" Ichika asked before she closed her eyes puckered up her lips. Fuutarou blushed at her cuteness.

"There will be no kissing, Ichika!!!" An extremely flustered Itsuki shrieked at her, making Ichika pout at Itsuki. She started pulling Ichika away while looking apologetically at Fuutarou.

"Sorry Uesugi-kun, Ichika sometimes acts a little ditzy when she gets up." Itsuki apologized while grinning nervously at her. Fuutarou sighed and waved nonchalantly.

"Let her be, it makes waking up a thousand times more likeable."

"Ufufufu~ I'm glad Fuutarou-kun likes it~"

"Don't you girls usually go to school with that limousine of yours? " Fuutarou asked the five sisters while they were walking towards the high school together.

"It's because Ebata-san is Papa's secretary. Him being iur driver is like a part-time thing." Nino explicit before stopping. She took out her phone and opened the camera app before putting it on selfie mode, showing her face.

"I haven't even put on makeup yet, I can't show my face like this!" Nino whispered, secretly blaming Fuutarou for rushing them.

"Trust me when I say this Nino...." Fuutarou muttered, making the social butterfly look at him.

Fuutarou smiled at her. "You don't need makeup. You're stunning with or without it." He complimented her, making Nino blush vividly and look away from him.

Fuutarou laughed as he started walking away from Nino with her foir sisters pouting in jealousy, especially Miku who wished she was in Nino's position.

"Oh! Let me help you with that." Fuutarou stopped walking and went to help an old lady carry her things to a shop.

"Oh, you're so kind sonny. Thank you." The grandma thanked him with a warm smile gracing her lips. Fuutarou smiled and nodded.

"You're welcome, granny. Is this your place?" Fuutarou asked while pointing at a store which was an antique shop.

"Yes." The grandma nodded as Fuutarou put down the bag of stuff at the entrance of the shop. She thanked Fuutarou once again who waved at her and arrived back where the Quints were.

"Wow...." Yotsuba whispered, amazed at Fuutarou's kindness. Nino crossed her arms.

"Aren't we in a rush, Uesugi?" Nino asked him. Fuutarou chuckled sheepishly and rubbed the back of his head.

"We have like 45 minutes until class starts, a little detour couldn't hurt." Fuutarou replied, making Nino sigh.

*GRR!!!!*

Itsuki blushed in embarrassment as she clutched her stomach. "No... I'm at my limit.... I'm so hungry.... " Itsuki mumbled. Miku raised an eyebrow at her.

"Didn't you eat like 5 sandwiches for breakfast before we left?" Nino asked bluntly.

"Uh.... Where did Fuutarou-kun go?" Ichika asked, feeling confused as she pointed where Fuutarou was previously at. Everyone looked to see that he was gone.

" Here, Itsuki. Three onigiri from Family Mart—"

" KYA!!" Itsuki shrieked loudly and jumped away from Fuutarou who literally appeared beside her from thin air.

"Woah! Uesugi-san just appeared out of nowhere!" Yotsuba shouted, amazed at Fuutarou's strange feat while the others were shocked at the display.

"How'd you do that?!" Yotsuba asked him. Fuutarou smiled at her.

"I'm just very fast." He replied, making Yotsuba pout as she thought he was going to say something like he has teleportation powers.

"Th-thank you..." Itsuki whispered, happy at Fuutarou's thoughtful actions. She grabbed the onigiri and started eating one of them with Fuutarou holding the others while he watched her eat.

"What are they up to?" Nino wondered as she looked at Ichika and Miku who were crouching in front of a crying child.

She can't help being agitated, they were on a time limit after all. She'll do everything she can do show Maruo, her father her true potential.

"Mommy...." The boy sobbed out. Fuutarou raised an eyebrow as he heard the boy say it in English, not Japanese.

"Looks like he's lost." Miku stated the obvious, not knowing what to do in these situations. Ichika smiled as she took out a tissue to wipe the tears on the boy's face.

She smiled warmly at him.

"Now now, can you tell me what you're mommy looks like?" She asked him. The child looked at her.

"I wanna meet my mommy...." The child said in English, making Ichika and Miku blink.

"Eh? " They both made the same sound. Ichika cleared her throat awkwardly before composing herself.

"Hello." Miku greeted the child in English, trying her best not to make a mistake since she never actually spoke the language with another person before, only read it and written it.

"Where is....your mother....right now?" Miku asked, talking slowly in English. The child shook his head before he suddenly brightened up.

"Where is the hospital?" He asked, Ichika and Miku looked at each other.

"Hospital huh....The nearest hospital is Chuo Hospital...." Ichika commented before she looked back at him.

"Um.... Did you... Go to the... hospital with your mother?"

" Yes." The child replied to Ichika's question. Ichika silently cheered at the child understanding her.

" Do you... Know the name...of the hospital?" Miku asked another question. The child nodded.

"Ch-chuo Hospital." The child replied to them.

" Chuo Hospital's like a kilometer away from our position. I'll take him there." Fuutarou offered ad he knelt down in front of the child.

"Hey." Fuutarou greeted in English with a grin on his face. The child hid behind Ichika, scared of Fuutarou's expression.

"I'll take you to the hospital. Don't worry, I'm super fast. You'll be there in the blink of an eye." Fuutarou explained to the child while talking in English skillfully, something which surprised the quintuplets.

"Do you trust me?" Fuutarou asked while holding out his hand. The child hesitated for a moment. Ichika smiled at the child.

"Don't worry.... He's our friend.... He's very kind..." Ichika assured the boy. The boy looked back at Fuutarou before holding his hand.

Fuutarou smiled and picked the boy up. He looked at him. "Close your eyes and don't open them until I tell you to. We'll be in front of the hospital in a second." Fuutarou requested. The boy followed his instructions.

Fuutarou walked into an alleyway, confusing the girls who immediately started following him.

"Where'd he go?!" Nino whispered in shock and a little bit scared.

"I'm back." Fuutarou sighed in relief as he stood beside Nino.

"KYAA!!!!" The quintuplets squealed loudly and jumped away from him. Fuutarou grinned at them.

"I told you I was fast. C'mon, let's go already. We're so close now. "

" You have so much to explain.... but you probably won't do it even if we beg you....." Nino grumbled, trying her best to process what happened. Fuutarou chuckled.

"You're right Nino! You'll just have to get used to it then."

"Tch."
