Valkyrie Smash-Chapter 73 Agreement.

"You want to… share?"

Alice looked as confused by Shizuru's suggestion as Sam was. The two looked at her with a raised eyebrow, however the Asian girl tuned to her cheating boyfriend with half lis eyes.

"Or could it be that the whole point of you bringing me here is to dump me in front of her?"

"N-no! Of course not!" Sam said, laughing nervously.

"No, that's most likely what you had in mind." Shizuru said with a shrug. "You probably thought the option that would cause the least amount of problems would be to end our relationship since we are still at the early stages."

"Eh? Um… uh…"

Sam was left speechless.

"That said, us breaking up ourlt of nowhere would cause more problem than you think. People will ask questions, you know." She added.

"Yeah, I already thought of that." Sam said, his head cast down.

"Anyways, it's not like you want to end our relationship because you no longer feel anything toward me. If we both agree to a share you then there is no problem."

"Um, Ms. Kurokami… are you sure about this?" Alice asked, slowly raising her hand.

"What? You think I will just let you have him?" Shizuru shot back.

"N-no! In fact your suggestion works for me just fine, but… would you be okay with it?"

Staring at the white haired beauty for a while, Shizuru then smiled.

"I don't think it matters."

"What?"

"I mean, it will definitely hurt to let my man be with another woman, however it's much better than having to give up on him and start from scratch."

"I… see…"

"Besides, I think it'll benefit all of us." Shizuru said. "You two can't be open about your relationship since everyone would assume that Sam only got to where he is now with your help. And the commander dating one of her subordinates doesn't sound too good."

"You… do have a point." Alice nodded. "But I don't see how that would benefit you, Ms. Kurokami."

"Oh, isn't it clear? My future would be secured." Shizuru said. "Sam is the whole package. He's handsome, smart and hard working. He has a respectable career and a bright future ahead of him and…"

As she spoke Shizuru noticed that Sam was slightly blushing which made her feel a little embarrassed herself.

"Anyways! What I wanted to say is that I can be with the man I want so I don't care what he does when we aren't together. As long as he doesn't neglect me, of course."

"Um, am I not allowed to have an opinion?" Sam asked, smiling awkwardly.

"What is it, Sam? Don't tell me you have a problem with being with two women at the same time. Or could it be that you were lying when you said you have feelings for me?"

"Well…"

For some reason Sam felt that he had dragged himself into a much more troublesome situation than he would've liked.

"I also thought that it would be for the best if Sam and I kept our relationship a secret." Said Alice. "I never considered him as a potential partner for a long time so I don't think I have the right to keep him for myself."

"Alright then! Since everyone agrees to it from today onwards the three of us are in a polygamous relationship!" Shizuru declared with a clap of her hands, however a moment later she turned to Sam with a smile, one that looked like her usual but at the same time didn't. "Just so we are clear, this is the only exception I'm will be making. "

"I'm actually surprised you're willing to put up with this." Sam said, feeling a chill running down his spine.

"I'm amazed, Ms. Kurokami." Alice spoke. "I had prepared myself for a… different kind of reaction. I never expected you to be so open minded and accepting…"

"Please call me Shizuru. We will be in a relationship with the same man so we should try to get along."

"I see. In that case, I will be in your care from now on, Shizuru." Alice said. Though she tried her best to smile she still couldn't hide how conflicted she felt about the matter.

"Same here." Shizuru said, bowing her head a little. "I will be in your care."

Watching the scene Sam was still unable to believe what's happening. Two women just agreed to be with him at the same time, something he had never thought was possible. He never knew Shizuru held him in such high regard, at least not to the point that she would be willing to share him with another woman. That only made him feel worse about cheating on her.

"Even though you worked it out, I somehow still feel like I did something horrible." Sam said.

"Well, that's because you did." Shizuru said with a giggle.

"Indeed." Alice said, suppressing her laugh. "Sam can be so cruel sometimes. But you could say that balances things, since he's way too kind most of the time."

"Right? You've probably heard of it but he once invited Zero Three for breakfast because she was feeling down."

"Yes. It's one of the reasons I chose him to be the Valkyries' physician." Alice said. "I knew he would take especially good care of them even if others think of them as nothing but weapons of war."

"That's news to me." Sam said. "Wasn't I just the convenient choice since you knew I wouldn't refuse?"

"That's a part of it as well." Alice replied.

"You two have been together for a long time, right?" Shizuru asked, her eyes on Alice. "What took you so long? I mean, why did you wait until now to confess to him?"

"Well, for a long time I only saw him as a cute little brother." Alice replied

"I see." Shizuru nodded. "So? What made you change your mind?"

Hearing that question, Sam and Alice suddenly turned to stone. They both remembered the time he kissed her while she pretended to be asleep, and knowing how it would sound they both silently agreed to tell a different story.

"Well, a while ago I was suffering from a heartbreak and called him to comfort me." Alice spoke, her mind working out a story that was as close to the truth as possible without having to tell the real events. "While I was crying in his arms I… I began to realize how much he had grown and… how handsome he actually is…"

"Hmm… I see…"

Looking beside her, Shizuru noticed that Sam was blushing again.

"What about you, Sam? If you liked her for so long why didn't you say anything before?"

"... same reason I didn't say anything to you." After considering it for a while, Sam told them his answer. "I… well, screw it. I'm a coward, alright? I was too scared of ruining our relationship that I couldn't do it."

"That's understandable." Shizuru said. "Though I expected you to have more confidence in yourself."

"Yeah." Alice nodded in agreement. "I expected a lot more from someone who seduced three women at the same time." ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂

"Who what!?" Shizuru turned to her with wide eyes.

"And I'm pretty sure he had other girlfriends before." Alice added. "One of them even works for my father nowadays."

"So shyness isn't the problem." Shizuru said.

"Well, that just shows how much I cared about you two."

Without meaning to Sam madd the two women blush with that one sentence.

"Sometimes he's a smooth talker as well." Shizuru said.

"Yeah…" Alice nodded.

The conversation went on for a while with the two girls doing most of the talking. Sam waited for the dream to end but as the clock continued to tick he was forced to admit that it's reality. It seems that his luck has yet to run out, however as things continue to go his way he couldn't help but feel that the blowback will be much worse.
