Chapter 21 – I love it.
The first time with Aoi-san ended without any issues, and I felt relieved.
If someone were to ask if it was truly without issues, that wouldn’t be the case.
I couldn’t move at all the next day.
Aoi-san kept smiling happily the whole time, and even though I wanted to complain, I couldn’t.
From breakfast to dinner, Aoi-san took care of everything diligently, and on the way back, Aoi-san even gave me a ride in a luxury car.
I didn’t even know he had a car like that.
“I’m sorry for pushing you too hard. I’ll try to take it easy next time.”
“…Really?”
My voice hardly came out. The slight hoarseness was also all Aoi-san’s fault.
“Oh, it’s true.”
“I can’t trust you, though.”
“Why not?”
“I told you many times to stop, but you didn’t listen.”
“…I’m sorry.”
Aoi-san looked pouty, and I couldn’t help but smile.
“I believe you, so next time, go easy on me, okay?”
“!!… I love you, Iwabuchi!”
Aoi-san happily smiled and kissed me. His kisses seemed never-ending, and I felt my strength leave me.
“Can I take you home?”
“No! I have to work tomorrow, so it’s not possible. Drive safely.”
“…I understand. Goodbye.”
I felt lonely as I watched Aoi-san get into her car.
If it were my previous partners, I probably would have already started walking towards the elevator by now.
“Well… how about next weekend? I’m available anytime.”
“Next weekend is good. I want to spend time together without any worries.”
“Let’s do that!”
It seems like I said something unnecessary.
“Alright, next weekend it is. I’ll message you… or is calling okay? Well, I’ll get in touch.”
“Yeah, sounds good! See you.”
After that, I waved goodbye until Aoi-san’s car was no longer visible.
“…Yeah, it was that amazing.”
During lunch break at work, I talked to Misato about the weekend.
That was her reaction.
I nodded slowly.
“I wonder if I should buy sexy lingerie too…”
“W-Wait, Misato, didn’t you say you have sexy lingerie?”
“I don’t have any! Well, I guess you need a good figure like you to wear them, right?”
I was deceived.
I trusted Misato and bought and wore it.
Even though my body still ached.
Suddenly, I remembered the sexy Aoi-san and blushed.
“Remembering and blushing, how naughty.”
“I’m going to kill you, Misato.”
“I’m sorry.”
At that moment, Daiki and Hayama sat down in the seats in front of us.
“What’s wrong, Senpai Iwabuchi? Your face is all red.”
“I was just remembering some lovey-dovey moments with my boyfriend and got embarrassed, that’s all, Hayama-kun.”
When Hayama went silent, Daiki said with a smirk, “Did you show him your sexy lingerie?”
“Daiki-kun, I can understand what you want to say. But it looks like our shy Iwabuchi here made an effort to tempt him in this relationship.”
“…I showed him,” I said defiantly. “T-That’s right! I wore it. I, I didn’t expect it to be like that… Uuuuu~ Misato ~ It was so embarrassing.”
“Oh, there there, good job, Wild-san. He turned you into a sexy lady.”
“…Uuuuu~ I keep remembering it~”
My face kept getting hotter.
Misato smiled contentedly and said, “You’re adorable.”
“Uuuuu~” I buried my head in my hands.
“If you keep dwelling on it like that, it’ll be tough, you know? How about getting another round today?”
“No way!”
“Was he bad at it?”
“No, he was amazing! That’s why, um, it’s not just a one-time thing… I mean, I couldn’t move the next day…”
Jitsumi had a sly grin on her face.
“Iwabuchi, maybe it would be better to talk about this when we’re not around?” Daiki suggested, and when I glanced at the two of them, for some reason, Hayama’s eyes were watery.
What? This is getting scary.
“I-I’m sorry, Hayama. Um, if you’re not comfortable with such a vulgar conversation, go sit somewhere else! What I want to talk to Jitsumi about is quite explicit, so you might hear it by accident.”
“N-No, it’s okay. Please continue.”
He doesn’t look okay at all.
“They say you were amazing, but how long were you with your previous boyfriend?”
Misato gave Daiki a sly smile.
Was she trying to distance Daiki from this seat?
“About five people, I think.”
“How many of them did you sleep with?”
“…Two.”
“What? You’ve can only compare with two of them?”
“Well, I don’t really compare. I don’t remember much.”
“When was the last time you had sex?”
“The day before yesterday”
“I meant before you started dating Wild-san.”
“…About three and a half years ago?”
For some reason, Daiki looked at me with a surprised expression.
“Wait, you haven’t dated anyone since you broke up with me?”
“I was just busy with work.”
“I see.”
I mean, there was only that guy who kept telling me to cook.
I shoved a piece of fried chicken from the chicken cutlet set into my mouth.
“Hey, is it true that the hymen goes back if you don’t have sex for three years?”
I froze and then spoke after finishing the fried chicken in my mouth.
“I-I don’t know!”
“It’s about yourself, isn’t it?”
“I-I don’t know…”
“So, you’re saying that it all got taken care of while you were unconscious.”
“How do you even know that?”
I buried my head in my hands again.
“My darling at home does it too! He even carries me like a princess to the bathroom.”
“Is he really that strong with that cute face?”
“Are you saying I’m chubby?”
“No, not at all! …Men are surprisingly strong, you know.”
“…He carried you like a princess?”
“Clairvoyance.”
“You always dreamed of being carried like a princess, didn’t you? He is really hitting your moe points.”
“…That’s right, what should I do? It’s making me feel like a high school girl with a crush.”
“Is it your first love?”
“N-No, it’s not!”
“You seem suspicious.”
I’ve already had my first love.
After all, I’ve dated five people!
…But feeling this fluttery, it’s different from my first love.
“Iwabuchi.”
“Yes?”
“You’re going to marry Wild-san, right?”
“Huh?”
I could feel my face getting hot again.
“Um… yeah. I mean, if Aoi-san wants to, of course.”
I immediately regretted what I said.
Misato had the biggest grin on her face.
“Uuuuu~ I hate Misato ~”
“What about Wild-san?”
“Well… I, um, like him…”
I can’t take it anymore; it’s too embarrassing!
I don’t even feel like eating anymore.
That day, I left food on my plate for the first time.
