Chapter 167 - Crazy Ideas?
To his surprise, he suddenly found himself on the ground. Sumire hovered over him. "Tell me, Yuhi, did you know how much I liked you?"
Yuhi looked away when she said that. How could he possibly know? He suspected that she had a crush on him but nothing to this scale.
"I liked you for so long, I wanted to be with you, and I even had all sorts of crazy ideas regarding you."
Crazy ideas?
Her cheeks colored slightly, and he felt his heart skip a beat. Ba-thump, ba-thump. What on earth is this situation? What is she trying to pull saying this stuff now?
"What sort of ideas?"
"Desires."
He could no longer take it at that comment, and soon he was on top of her again. He clasped her hands behind her, and a dangerous look flashed in his eyes. "I told you repeatedly not to mess with me before. But it seems you do not learn your lesson."
"Did it ever occur to you that I don't dislike it when you mess with me?"
What a woman, she wants to continue courting death.
But that is fine with him, she can continue behaving this way, and he can have his way with her. Yuhi lowered his face and kissed her again. This time around, he did not wait for confirmation and opened her mouth. Whenever he kissed her like this, she tasted like strawberries or some kind of fruit. So sweet... he usually disliked sweet things, but there is something different with Sumire. He does not understand exactly what is different, but he does know that he likes this.
He likes touching her; he likes spending time with her. Yuhi cupped her breasts with his hands and rubbed them slightly. Sumire kept calling him a fool against their lips - before he could do anything else, the doors opened.
It was Shin. He calmly walked over and placed something on top of the piano. "If you two want to do that stuff, just go home."
Sumire laughed softly. "Uh, I think we are finished." She quickly stood up and picked up the documents. "Is this new information?"
"Yes, it just came in. I haven't looked at it either."
Yuhi clicked his tongue irritated. He grabbed hold of her hand and pulled her back into his arms. "Did I tell you we were stopping?"
Sumire rolled her eyes. "Well, I don't mind. But do you want an audience?"
Audience but only Shin-- Yuhi looked over at the door and saw numerous freshmen peeking through the door. Right, Sumire played the piano. This room isn't soundproof either; it is normal for people to come running. But that does not make this okay.
Yuhi thought for a moment before he kissed her lips. "I don't mind."
At that comment, he felt a jab in his stomach and knew he overstepped his boundaries. Sumire pulled away and picked up the sheets. "Nakara-sensei, could you tell those people to leave? I want to focus."
Shin nodded and walked over to the door. It did not take long before all the kids scurried away.
He glanced over at Sumire, who now wore a concentrated look on her face and sighed. So much for having his way with her. He already had his fun earlier, so he should be content, but he wants more when it comes to her. What sort of feeling is this?
He dove for his pocket for his cigarettes but realized they were missing. Yuhi walked over to the girl and hugged her from the back. He continued to assault her neck with kisses. It did not take long before she pulled something out of her bag.
His lips curved to a smile when it landed in his hand. "You shouldn't have hidden it."
She puffed her cheeks into a pout. "I was only concerned. You smoke too much."
"We had this conversation before." He lit the cigarette with his lighter and took a few puffs. "I need to smoke."
Sumire suddenly took the cigarette from his lips. "If I kissed you as a substitute like before, would you stop?"
Ah, that's right; they spoke about this before. Yuhi wrapped his arms around her waist. "Should we try?" He nuzzled his forehead against hers. "It does seem like a great idea."
Sumire laughed softly. "Yuhi-san, you intend to flirt with me today, right?"
"Mm, correct."
Shin coughed, but Sumire pressed a gentle kiss on his lips. "Be good; we have work to do."
It feels like she is stringing him along, but did he not realize that from the very beginning? Yuhi nodded and turned to the documents. He picked one of them and scanned it briefly. The name of the organization made him frown.
Is it a coincidence?
Black Alice?
Shin spoke up. "We got numerous complaints that this organization is targeting people with unusual abilities. However, the problem is, we believe the organization is affiliated with major influential figures. Because of this, we cannot take drastic actions."
Sumire sighed. "In other words, the SF isn't special either. They have no choice but to obey orders from above and end up silenced."
"Sumire that—"
"Arent I, right?"
Shin slowly nodded. "Only for now. The leader of the group tends to do things a bit differently than most." He trailed off. "If you want more answers, then it is better to visit in person."
Yuhi noticed Shin's gaze on him, and he sighed. "I can't come with you, though."
The barrier around that place and the security always reject him.
"The SF headquarters?"
"Go with Shin after school."
"But you—"
"Unfortunately, I have a lot of work to do. My concert is soon, remember?"
Sumire slowly nodded. "I guess I could go. But Yuhi-san, you have to remember to answer my calls."
He chuckled when he heard that. It seems like she is adjusting and playing the girlfriend role well. Still, he could not shake off the bad feeling. The Sf isn't a dangerous place, but they interrogate many dangerous ability users there. What if something happened? Should he go with her even if it meant having to wait outside?
Sumire picked up the piece of paper again and pointed to a person photograph. "This person is a member of Black Alice?"
"Yes."
"I think I know where you can find them."
Yuhi looked at the photograph, and his eyes widened. Huh? This is— how could he not recognize her? The woman in the photograph looked slightly different, but he could still recognize her. This person is the one who was his girlfriend in name until recently.
