Third POV
[It's the next day. It's the final day of camp. We spent the first day stuck in the storm, Then we spent the second day prepare for today and I got sick. This is the last day. It's time to make the most of it. I get out of bed and head over to the ski slope. I'm not really a skier. I'm a snowboarder. I'm really good it. I've played plenty of video games. So I get dressed and head over to the slope. I walk over the slope when Yotsuba appears]
Yotsuba: Hey, Third! How's it going? You feeling better?
Third: Yeah. By the way, you can't leave a lock a room without checking first.
Yotsuba: That's something random to say. Anyway, want to have a race?
Third: I don't know.
Yotsuba: Come on! We used to race all the time! No matter what it was!
Third: Really?
Yotsuba: We'd race from eating to doing homework. I always won!
Third: You should take more time on your homework.
Yotsuba: That's probably true. Anyway, let's have a race!
Third: I don't know.
Yotsuba: Please?
[Yotsuba then gave me the puppiest of puppy dog eyes. Seriously, God would have caved in. I couldn't say no to that face]
Third: Fine.
Yotsuba: Yay! I'm excited!
Third: I'm probably going to just lose again.
[Yotsuba looked at me with a smile on her face]
Yotsuba: I know you got game! I want your very best!
[As if on cue, I had a flashback to a time when that girl was going to race me with bikes]
[Flashback]
Third: I'll beat you this time.
Girl: Whatever. I know you got game! I want your very best!
[End of flashback]
[I just smile. She's that girl alright]
Yotsuba: Want to make a bet?
Third: Go ahead. I'm listening.
Yotsuba: The winner makes the loser do one request.
Third: I feel like I've been in this situation before.
Yotsuba: You have. You lost last time and you will this time.
Third: Keep dreaming. I've gotten better.
[We got into our positions]
Yotsuba: The first one to the bottom. Okay?
Third: You're on. On three...What?
[I'm about to count when I see Yotsuba already head down hill]
Third: Hey!
Yotsuba: All is fair in love and war!
[I knew that I had already lost. She really wanted to win and I already know what she wanted me to do. I was going to give it my best effort though. I raced down the hill. I was doing very well. I dodged a bunch of people along the way. I even saw Futaro trying to ski down]
Third: Hey. Having fun?
Futaro: How do you stop?
Third: Didn't read it in a book?
[I sped away]
Futaro: Curse you, Third!
[I just laugh as I head to the bottom. I made it and just like I suspected, Yotsuba was already at the bottom]
Yotsuba: What took you so long?
Third: You cheated.
Yotsuba: You should've seen that coming. I did that all the time. It's how I won.
Third: Did you just admit to cheating?
Yotsuba: It isn't cheating when you haven't established the rules! I started before you could!
[My jaw drops. I walk over and place my hand on Yotsuba's head]
Yotsuba: What's wrong?
Third: Are you okay? You just said something smart!
Yotsuba: I did? Huh? Cool!
[I then sighed. That moment didn't last long]
Yotsuba: Now for my prize.
[I already knew where this was going]
Yotsuba: I want you to dance with me at the campfire!
[! Sighed]
Yotsuba: Then I want you to marry me like you promised!
Third: I made a bet like that years ago? I was so naïve.
Yotsuba: No takebacks!
[Yotsuba started to walk away]
Yotsuba: You made a promise and you don't break promises.
Third: You're right.
[Yotsuba walks away. I sigh. What am I going to do? Each quint asked me to the dance but I can only dance with one. Who do I choose? Futaro walks next to me]
Futaro: She asked you didn't she?
Third: Yeah. All five have.
Futaro: You're in a pickle.
Third: I am. What do I do?
[Futaro hands me a note]
Futaro: Raiha wanted me to give this to you if you were to ever get into this situation.
Third: She saw that far ahead?
Futaro: She did. You've taken my little sister from me.
Third: I didn't mean to.
[I read]
Third: "Take a walk. Clears the head." But my head won't tell me what to do!
Futaro: Flip it over.
[The flip the note over]
Third: "Your heart will tell you where to go." Wow. She's good.
Futaro: A little too good.
Third: I guess I'm going for a walk.
[I head on a walk. I walk into the main area of camp. I look around. There I see each Nakano sister doing their own thing. Miku is listening to music on a bench. Nino is talking with some friends. Yotsuba is running around. Ichika is making smores. Itsuki is handing out supplies to make smores. I had to ask one of them. The dance was tonight. In fact, less than 12 hours. I had to ask someone. Each girl looked at me and smiled and waved. This was going to be so hard]
3rd Person POV
[Third approaches the girl that he chose]
Third: May we talk in private?
???: Sure.
[Third and the girl walk behind one of the cabins]
???: You okay? You seem nervous.
Third: I am.
[Silence]
Third: There is something that I want to ask you. I made you a promise years ago and I will keep it. Here it goes. (Deep breath) Will you go to the dance with me? Afterwards, get married?
[The girl starts to cry tears of joy and plants a kiss on Third's lips]
???: Yes.
I put out a pole and asked what I should do from here. People said that they wanted a story after the camping trip. I'm working on that. People also said that I should write an ending for each girl including a harem ending. I'm working on that too.
Are you getting choices during this part of the story? We'll see!
