Startled by her words, I turned on the hair dryer.
“If we sleep together… well, who knows what might happen?”
I gently stroked Toka’s hair as I dried it with the hair dryer. My voice was more hoarse than I had expected.
“What if I said it’s okay no matter what happens?”
The sound of the hair dryer should have been roaring in front of me, but Toka’s voice reached me clearly. My heart was pounding so loudly it was almost deafening.
“That’s cheating!”
I managed to laugh and placed the hair dryer on the desk. I didn’t want Toka to notice that my fingertips were trembling slightly from tension.
“Oh, I’ll dry your hair this time.”
“Uh, okay…”
I awkwardly replied and sat back down.
“Alright, here we go.”
The hairdryer switched on. The warm air hit the back of my head, spreading a ticklish yet pleasant sensation. Beyond the air, Toka’s soft fingertips gently touched my hair.
“Ryo-kun…”
Toka’s arm gently wrapped around my waist.
“Ryo-kun, you see…”
“Hot! If you’re going to hug me, at least turn off the hair dryer first!”
“Ah.”
My stomach was about to be burned by the hot air from the hair dryer!
◇
It’s 10 p.m.
I turn off the lights and lie down on the futon spread out on the floor. I’m tired today… I never thought that my surroundings would change so much in just one day.
“Ryo-kun, let’s talk~”
Meanwhile, Toka is still full of energy. She buries her face in the pillow and looks at me from the bed. That’s strange, her mental burden should be incomparable to mine.
“We’re already in bed, aren’t we?”
“But I can’t sleep. I can’t relax with Ryo-kun next to me.”
While saying that, Toka tugs at the edge of the futon.
“Come over here?”
“You said you can’t relax with me next to you!”
“There you go. You say one thing, then do another.”
“I’ll just say the same thing back to you!”
“Then I’ll go first.”
Toka slips out of bed and crawls into my futon.
“Is this okay?”
“To be honest, I thought you might do something like this…”
“Hehe, you knew?”
When I shrugged my shoulders, Toka leaned her face close to mine, as if to share the pillow. The scent of the same shampoo I use wafted from her hair, and even though I knew I shouldn’t, my heart was beating louder than before. Toka’s bare feet gently tapped my toes.
“Ryo-kun~”
“Let’s go to sleep now. We have to go to school tomorrow.”
“No way! I’m not sleeping! If I sleep, school will come!”
“You’re acting like a child.”
Laughing, I gently pushed back against Toka’s tapping feet. Then Toka counterattacked my feet again. After continuing this back-and-forth for a while, Toka suddenly clamped my feet between her thighs.
“That’s not fair!”
“Gotcha!”
I desperately tried to wriggle free, but Toka’s grip was gentle yet firm, and I couldn’t escape at all! In fact, moving made me feel the sensation of her thighs, which was pretty intense!
“What are we doing?”
“The scene of Ryo being parasitized by Toka.”
“It’s not that funny!”
We were moving around in the futon, so I started to sweat a little. We were so close that I felt like our skin was getting moist.
“My mom told me…”
“What?”
“Not to do anything weird to Toka. She said we’re taking care of an important child from the Asahina family.”
“But I said it’s okay?”
“Huh?”
Toka whispered those words. I felt like I should say something, but my mouth wouldn’t move properly. My heart was pounding so loudly I couldn’t control it.
“There are still lots of places on my body that Ryo kun hasn’t touched…”
“Eh—”
Toka said that, then slowly took my hand and guided it to her chest.
“Ryo-kun’s hands are so warm…”
The warmth that fit perfectly in my hand left me completely speechless. The sensation of Toka’s hand guiding mine was surprisingly soft and frighteningly hot. As I held my breath, I could almost feel Toka’s heartbeat through her skin.
I tried to pull my hand away, but Toka’s hand wrapped around it and wouldn’t let go. As my rationality was about to collapse, I noticed that Toka’s body was trembling slightly.
“Toka, are you nervous…?”
“Huh?”
“I’m sorry, I can’t explain it well, but that’s how I feel…”
Toka exhaled softly while still holding my hand.
“Why do you think that?”
“I don’t know, it’s just a feeling…”
“Am I that easy to read…”
With her eyes still burning with passion, Toka opened her mouth.
“Like I said this morning, if Ryo-kun abandons me, I won’t be able to live anymore…”
“You’re exaggerating.”
“I’m not exaggerating! I’m scared because I’ve fallen too deeply in love with Ryo-kun. Every day, every day, I fall more and more in love with him… So, Ryo-kun has to get more into me, or else I’ll be in trouble!”
“Get into you…”
Toka whispered that, then gently rested her forehead against my chest. Hearing Toka’s anxiety, a little bit of calm returned to me. I took the hand that was wrapped around Toka and brought it to her head, gently stroking her hair.
“…Toka, let’s take it slow and not rush things.”
“…”
“Ah, the love cultivation plan and the other cultivation plans too. Let’s take our time and do them at our own pace.”
“You won’t abandon me, will you?”
“Why are you so scared? Don’t you trust me that much?”
“I do, but I can’t help but think about the worst-case scenario…”
Having once lost everything, Toka now feared losing something more than anyone else. Since we started dating, her excessive physical affection was probably a manifestation of that fear. So she tried to bind me to her more deeply…
“I promise. We’ll always be together.”
At those words, I felt Toka’s slight trembling ease a little.
“Ryo-kun, I love you.”
I kept stroking her hair until her breathing became steady.
—Late at night. After Toka had fallen asleep, I went downstairs to the refrigerator.
“Pant… pant…”
I poured barley tea into a cup and drank it all in one go! I held on well! I did my best, me!
“This is too much for a healthy high school boy…”
Leaning against the kitchen wall, I muttered those words. If I act carelessly, Toka might lose her place to live. But Toka is steadily closing the distance between us as lovers. This cohabitation might be tougher than I thought…
In the end, I couldn’t sleep at all that night.
