Chapter 62 First Time with Aika, Part One ★
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
After taking a shower, Aika seemed to have changed back into her original clothes
She is wearing her summer uniform of a short-sleeved blouse and skirt. Her normally voluminous hair appeared flattened by the hot water, but it doesn’t look moist, as if it had been properly dried
Looking at Chihiro, she smiled faintly, then looked around the room and exhaled
”It’s an amazing room…”
”Yeah. I was surprised at first, too”
Aika was amazed, mostly at the huge bed
Considering the purpose of the bed, Aika can’t really admire it, but still, her interest seems to be stronger than her dislike, and she walks up to the bed and pushes it with her hand
”Hey, is it actually hard?”
”Well, it’s not so fluffy around the edges. But you see, the bed is big so it should be soft too”
”I see”
With a nod, Aika gently put her knees on the bed
The mattress sank with a slight ruffle as she crawled with her weight
”Oh, it feels so comfortable…”
Aika muttered with narrowed eyes
In fact, this bed is quite comfortable to sleep on. It must be a very expensive bed. The mattress catches the body gently, and if there’s only a few of them, the space helps them sleep well
Chihiro sat down on the bedside chair, smiling at Aika who was happily touching the bed
Then, he looked back at her
”…Well, Aika, thank you again. Thank you for choosing me”
Hearing this, Aika stopped moving and sat down in the middle of the bed
”…Yeah. Me too, thank you. Thank you for wanting me, for fighting for me”
For agreeing to that fight
Winning and getting the right was a big deal for Aika too
Thinking about it makes him happy
At the same time
Chihiro felt guilty that he had been a bit unfair
”…Someday, I’ll have to fight Kamishiro-kun again”
If he’s going to win, he’s going to need it
Aika blinked a few times
After a few seconds, she asks Chihiro
”Is that boy’s pride?”
”Yes, I suppose it is”
――Chihiro lost to Kamishiro on the day before Kamishiro’s confession answered in June. If he doesn’t get revenge for that loss, this disappointment will never go away
”I see. But you know what?”
Aika put her hands on the bed again, coming close to Chihiro
”I don’t care about that, okay? Because I am already Chihiro’s girlfriend. Even if Kamishiro-kun beats Izumi-kun again, it won’t change anything”
Once she’s made up her mind, it’s not easy to change her mind
So, there is no way to win Aika again
So, if you want to win for Aika, that’s just self-satisfaction
…Of course, that is not the only reason why Chihiro wants to challenge Kamishiro. But it did make him feel lighter
”I guess I shouldn’t ask you why you chose me…”
Chihiro murmured, a small smile on his face
”You’re right. But I think you should be more confident. And… I want tell you”
Aika sits down next to Chihiro
Glancing sideways at Chihiro, she looked vaguely up at the ceiling. He thought about following her gaze, but held back and turned his face to the front
And then, the voice comes from right next to him
”Kamishiro-kun is great. He’s strong, cool, and kind. I think anyone would like him. But, Chihiro, you can’t be left alone”
(Come to think of it, I think someone said something like that to me once)
”…I started to care about you when you had a match with Kamishiro-kun”
Seeing Chihiro not give up even after being torn to pieces, Aika wondered why he was trying so hard
It was just a personal match, and there was no clear bet. Yet, Chihiro was desperately trying to catch up with Kamishiro
The difference in strength was obvious
Many people in the crowd were saying that he was no match for Kamishiro, and to be honest, Aika thought so too
However, Chihiro was able to take advantage of this
He made Kamishiro take it seriously, but at the cost of great damage
”I thought you were dangerous. I thought you were a quiet boy until then, but then I thought about it, and realized that I’ve healed you before”
Chihiro was unreliable
That’s why it bothered Aika
Besides, when she was promoted to rank C after that healing, her feelings for him grew even stronger
And before she knew it, she was following him with her eyes more and more, and at that time, he told her that he liked her
”But then you’re doing something like that with Riko-chan…”
”…Haha”
Her interest turned to resentment, but still she couldn’t hate him
She also watched his performance in the sports festival
And during the scavenger hunt, not knowing who to pick, but not wanting to leave out Chihiro, she had Chihiro and Kamishiro play rock-paper-scissors
In the end, she was so embarrassed that she chose Maisaka to cover up her error
After the closing ceremony, when she was invited to hang out, she saw Maria and the other three at the pool, and at lunch, someone said something I hadn’t expected
”I realized that I’m jealous of Riko-chan and the others. Because they looked so happy. I wanted to be there for you, too, Chihiro”
He’s a hard worker. Trying so hard, but in a dangerous way. That’s why Aika wants to be there for him
It’s like he needs her
So, at that thought, she couldn’t hold back her feelings. However, she doesn’t want to be a slave, and she decided to denying Riko and the others who are slaves
”…So, it’s like that”
Aika lowered her head and looked back at Chihiro
Following her, they looked at each other from a close distance
Almost touching but not touching
Maria would have been more provocative. Riko would have already touched her. Hana would never have gotten into this situation in the first place
And now, Aika’s expecting something, but doesn’t say it, keeping an ambiguous distance
”You know if I’m lying, right?”
Aika’s thoughts flowed in
Affection
Warm and sad feelings flooded her. It mingled with Chihiro’s own feelings, and became an endless quantity that scorched his heart
”Aika”
”Chihiro-kun”
They gently brought their faces close together and kissed, lightly touching each other
”…This is embarrassing”
Aika smiled as she pulled her face away
It seems she’s not used to this kind of thing. Even Chihiro had never done this with a lover before
Still, he smiles back and whisper to her
”I like you”
”Yeah… me too”
As he couldn’t help himself
Chihiro stretched out his arms towards Aika. She didn’t resist, but leaned into him
*squeeze*
As soon as he hugged the body wrapped in the uniform, they lost their balance and fell on the bed
Chihiro is on the bottom, Aika on the top
He can smell the shampoo and body soap in her hair and on her neck. Perhaps because of the different brands of shampoo and body soap, Aika’s scent is different from the ones he had smelled before
For a few seconds, he savored Aika’s warmth and softness before letting go of his hand
He didn’t want to force her, but Aika herself became a little annoyed and hugged him back
”My heart is pounding, can you feel it?”
”…Of course”
Both their hearts are beating fast
And while feeling each other heart, they kissed again
In addition, with their arms loosely wrapped around each other’s body, they kissed more deeply than before
”Nnn, uuh…”
Chihiro doesn’t put his tongue in
But he could feel Aika’s breathing as they kissed for several seconds. She must have been embarrassed, but it made him happy to be able to feel such things
After a few seconds, the lips parted and Chihiro asked
”May I?”
”……”
She nods
Instead of words, a small nod came back
Aika moves away from Chihiro once
”Do not wrinkle the bed”
”…Hmm”
Chihiro nodded and got off the bed to get ready
He walked over to the bedroom window and closed the curtains. The inside of the double-glazed window is cloudy, so someone can’t see in from the outside, but now that it’s daytime, it’s too bright
When he returned, Aika, who had finished unbuttoning her blouse, thanked him with her eyes
She unhooks her skirt with her blouse still on. Then, with a quick, continuous sound, her naked body wrapped in her underwear is revealed
A pair of white underwear with small ribbons on the top and bottom
Although it’s not plain, the design is simple, and it feels like a high school student and innocent at the same time. Maria’s underwear often looked strangely glamorous, so it was refreshing
”Well, I’ve worn a cute one, but…”
Aika wondered what Chihiro’s answer
