Chapter 598 How is it possible?
The following morning, Sumire found herself in a strange situation. It's so strange, waking up beside him like this. 'I still can't get used to it.'
Moreover, "Ahem, how long have you been staring at me?"
"Forever." Yuhi leaned over and kissed her forehead. "Good morning."
"G--good morning."
"You're still acting nervous. Just relax."
How can she possibly relax when they are like this? Still, she does feel a bit tired/exhausted. Maybe she can close her eyes for a few minutes longer?
"If you don't wake up soon, I'll probably just eat you."
Yuhi slowly started to lick, suck and bite her neck, causing her to laugh.
Sumire laughed softly. "Stop it; Im ticklish."
"Are you? I guess I can find out."
Oh this dummy. "We have to go to school."
"Don't be so formal after you brought me here."
'I guess he isn't going to talk anymore. But that is fine too.'
After kissing her in several places, he drew back slowly, to her surprise.
"Are you in a better mood now?"
"I think so."
Yuhi looked at her, concerned. "Are you sure?"
'I like how he isn't asking me exactly what's wrong. He is being so thoughtful.'
Sumire extended her hands out and caressed his hair. "I'm sure, but my body hurts."
Yuhi laughed. "Well, there's nothing we can do about that. Maybe I should give you a massage?"
'Why does he sound so seductive just saying the word massage? Or maybe it's me misinterpreting everything he says.'
….
Sumire immediately regretted it when she realized how late they were for school. How can they be late on the second day back?
"B--because of you were late for school."
"You sure about that? Isn't it because you picked a hotel so far away-"
'I still can't believe I brought him to a hotel. I can't do those things anymore, no matter how emotional I am. Toh was such a bad influence on me!'
Yuhi wrapped his arms around her waist. "So hey, I don't dislike doing that with you."
Thump-thump. She hears the sound of her heartbeat increasing per minute. What is he doing to her? Ah, she feels like she is going insane when she is around him recently.
"But if we make it a habit, Hino will kill us." Yuhi held up her phone and his.
Her sweat fell.
Uh, they probably got caught by some reporters, and Hino had to clean up their mess. All the media outlets in town have the dignity not to publish photos without sending them to the artist's company. On the other hand, the reporters would not be so considerate if this was star town.
Then again, she probably shouldn't compare a small town like star town to Tokyo. It is normal for people living in a small town to be so desperate/starved for information.
Her thoughts broke off when she felt Yuhi grab hold of her hand. He placed his hat on top of her head. "The streets shouldn't be this crowded, but just in case."
"Right."
Somehow it is weird, even though this is not the first time they held hands or done something intimate. She felt very strange.
I wonder if there is something wrong with my heart.
Ever since Christmas, she has felt a bit weird towards him. Is it because they spent all that time together, just the two with no interruptions? But it is not like that was the first time.
Whenever they went on long missions together in the past, they would spend time together like that for much longer. Maybe she is the odd one.
She can think of something, but how could it be possible for her to love him even more than she already did?
The more she thought about it, the more her head hurt. Even though she knows it is not possible, it's the only conclusion that she can come up with right now. To think her already deep feelings for Terashima Yuhi would grow even more.
Sumire peeked over at him. Yuhi was talking about getting groceries after school and fetching Huan so she could spend more time with him before she became busy. But she was only half-listening and focused on staring at his face. Is it because he is handsome?
But, if she thought about all her male friends back in her hometown, it's not like she was new to handsome faces. Actually, at this point, she ought to be sick of seeing handsome faces. It cant be about his looks.
Then his personality? Yuhi is very good to her, but wasn't Sano before he went weird, Toh, Ren, and Ru the same?
Romance is truly complicated. Despite this being her fifth relationship already, she still does not know the first thing about romance.
It did not take long before she saw the familiar school gates as they walked up the hill. The hotel was a lot closer than she thought, or maybe they just walked too quickly?
"This is a rare sight, the lovey-dovey couple actually walking to school."
"Jun-kun."
"I can't help it; my bike brown down, so I sent it for repairs, and my car is too flashy. Public transport isn't the best either."
So that's the reason they walked? She thought it was simply because he had left his bike further away from the hotel.
"I also heard what happened. Naraski-san was making a huge fuss."
Sumire felt her cheeks color. So- if Jun-kun heard, then there is no doubt that the others know too? This is embarrassing! No matter how calm she normally is about their relationship, the fact that everybody knows that she and Yuhi went to a hotel is way too much!
"He shouldn't be. Nagawa has practically bribed off all the reporters; even if they try something, he will get the news first." Yuhi stated calmly.
Huh? San bribed the reporter- her thoughts broke off when Yuhi let go of her hand and pinched her cheeks. "Oi, don't look so love-struck."
"I-Im not! Im just surprised."
Sano is really going all out. It seems like he is serious about perusing her. However, she has more important matters to deal with now.
I ought to stop by the physics prep room and see if Shin has any new information regarding the enemy movements. Or she could call up and ask Sano. But the latter is more troublesome. It would be better to limit how much she met with him just for a while longer. Keep him at arm's length but do not get too close.
Sumire exhaled deeply at the thought. She truly is a terrible person.
"Really? Don't fall for him just because he is working hard for you. Damn, even though I always slave away for you, I guess you haven't noticed."
Uh, Sumire stared at him, speechless. Why is he getting all competitive over this? Yuhi-san can be so weird sometimes.
"Then should I tell her for you?" Jun suddenly took out his laptop. "I have all the data."
"Oi, don't show her anything!"
Sumire laughed. He is so silly. She already knows, even if he doesn't say anything. She knew how hard he worked for her. This morning, she recalled his tired expression and leaned forward to lightly kiss his lips.
"You-"
"Let's head to class quickly."
Yuhi tugged on her hand. "Are you really leaving me hanging like that? You can be very cruel."
Sumire rolled her eyes. "You haven't had enough yet?"
