My Japanese Childhood Friend Is Too Flirty

57. July, Just the Two of Us Childhood Friends at the Waterpark! (6)

“Sleep here? …Here?”

“Yep, I’m going to sleep here.”

*’Why sleep here when you have your own room…?*’ I probably wouldn’t get anywhere asking that.

The reason Aki wanted to sleep in my room, like she’d mentioned earlier in the day, was most likely to seduce me.

*’…Yeah, there’s no other reason for it.’*

I know I’m not stupid.

Yes.

I know.

But knowing why Aki wants to sleep in my room and actually sending her back are two separate things.

To be honest, I wanted to sleep in the same room as Aki too.

Even knowing that if we slept together like this, Aki would be trying to seduce me right up until I fell asleep, I just couldn’t bring myself to tell her to go back.

This is why instincts are scary…

“We’ll be in big trouble if we get caught by the staff…”

“Eung, you’re right. But unless we order room service, we won’t get caught, right…?”

She’s right.

Unless we call for staff first, there’s absolutely no way they’ll just unlock the door and walk in.

Like Aki said, if we’re just careful, there’s no way we’d get caught.

And that’s what makes this even more of a problem…

“So, it’s okay if I stay over, right?”

“……”

“……Hehe, got it.”

Silence is confirmation.

Aki, understanding perfectly, slowly began to move, stopping in front of the bathroom, turning slightly towards me.

“Uju~chan. Atashi’s gonna go shower…?”

“……Eung.”

Why would she tell *me* she’s going to shower?

Aki, saying it as if for my benefit, slipped into the bathroom, not even locking the door, and started rustling as she took off her clothes.

And how did I know she was taking off her clothes? Because the sounds were coming through to me, outside, so clearly.

“…Guess the soundproofing isn’t that great.”

I wonder if any loud noise in the room would be heard in the next room.

──Swooosh.

“……”

The sound of water means Aki must have started showering.

Standing here and listening is a little weird, so I casually moved over and sat on the edge of the bed.

And then, clasping my hands together, I tried my best not to have any bad thoughts as I waited patiently for Aki to come out.

‘But, doesn’t she not have any clothes to change into…?’

I saw her only bring a small cosmetic bag earlier, so what kind of clothes did she go inside to change into…?

──Stop.

The sound of water ceased at that thought. And then came the sound of someone changing, the sound of a door opening.

*Creak*-.

“……”

“……”

Aki emerged wearing a shower gown.

Judging by looks, it seemed to be the type that had a tie in the front, secured around the waist with a knot.

……That’s not important, so let’s move on for now.

Anyway, taken aback by Aki’s unexpected attire, I blankly stared at her, completely mesmerized.

In terms of exposure, it was much less than the swimsuit she wore earlier, but perhaps because her hair was slightly damp, she even seemed to exude a certain *s*xiness*.

“Why? Is it strange…?”

“Huh? No…. It’s pretty….”

“……*hee*-, really?”

Aki’s lips curved upward in a smile at my compliment.

Whether she liked my hastily constructed remark or not, Aki, displaying a smile even more enchanting than usual, began to gently dry her wet hair with the provided hair dryer.

“Mmm, *heehee*….”

“……”

It wasn’t the first time I’d seen Aki drying her hair.

But, could it be because of what she was wearing?

For some reason, the way her hair slightly fluttered seemed strangely *seductive*.

“Uju~ *chan*.”

“……Huh?”

“Did you put on lotion after showering?”

“Um…. No, I didn’t.”

“Ah, why didn’t you? I told you to always put it on, it’s bad for your skin!”

“Well…. I just didn’t feel like it.”

“Uh-uh, you can’t do that. You can’t not put it on just because you don’t feel like it!”

*Tsk tsk*.

Aki gestured to me, empty-handed. A silent invitation to come closer.

“Stand here a moment.”

“…Why?”

“Why else? To give you lotion. Now, bend your knees and present your face!”

“I’m hardly some puppy… …Mmph.”

“…Mm, all done.”

With practiced ease, Aki squeezed lotion onto her hand, then dotted it onto my face. She gave a pretty smile and gently stroked my cheek.

“There, how is it? Feeling better?”

“Can’t really tell…”

“Hmm, is that so? Perhaps it’s been a while since you washed up…?”

Aki looked at my face with great focus.

Her gaze combed over every inch, and then she frowned, as if noticing something amiss.

“Uju-chan, why are your lips so chapped?”

“Oh, I don’t know…”

“Ah, this won’t do…! Come over here for a moment.”

“What for?”

“I’m going to put lip balm on you. Now, say ‘oooh’!”

“……”

What is this, did she not come to seduce me, but to take care of me instead…?

“How about now, are they a bit more, shall we say, dewy?”

“Hmm, maybe…or maybe not.”

“Hng, is that so…?”

*Click.*

Aki put down the hair dryer.

Her hair was so long it was still slightly damp, and yet, it only seemed to add a subtle allure to her.

“Uju-chan.”

“Yeah.”

“Bend your knees just a little.”

“Like this…?”

“A little more, more, more…. …There, that’s good.”

As Aki had asked, I bent my knees further, until our eye levels were more or less aligned.

“…Mm.”

And then – a rush.

Aki wrapped her arms around my neck and k*ssed me.

If I were being honest, I had somewhat expected this.

But now that my imagination was reality, all I could do was focus on the soft sensation of our lips touching.

And so, to support Aki, who was clinging to me, I extended my arms and wrapped them around her waist.

With our bodies pressed firmly together, Aki became even more assertive, as if all inhibitions had vanished.

Pressing her lips against mine, she playfully nipped at my lips, licked them, even s*cked on them gently.

“…Mmm. …*Smooch*.”

“……”

“Haaah…. Mm, Ujuu-chan….”

“……Why?”

“Turn, light…off….”

“……”

*Thump-thump.*

My heart began to pound fiercely in my chest.

The request to turn off the light was nothing in itself.

But Aki’s voice, blurred with heat, and her bewitching gaze, made me harbor strange, suggestive expectations.

“Mmm, quickly….”

“…Alright.”

To turn off the light as requested, I gently released Aki.

But then – *thwack.*

Aki grabbed my collar and tugged it tightly.

“Where go…?”

“Huh? I’m going to turn off the light….”

“……*Tch*.”

Our lips met again.

Caught in an ambiguous posture – neither fully turned away nor facing her – I froze.

Aki, standing slightly on tiptoe, wrapped her arms tightly around my waist as if to say she had no intention of letting go, and spoke only with half-closed eyes.

“k*ss me… and turn off the light….”

“……”

k*ssing while turning off the light?

A rather difficult request.

But not entirely impossible, perhaps.

With one arm, I firmly wrapped around Aki’s waist, lifting her suddenly.

Naturally, Aki’s feet left the ground, leaving her no choice but to cling to me.

“Ah, unh…. *mwah*….”

Lips locked with Aki as she clung to me, I carefully shuffled my feet toward the lamp.

And, with my free hand, I pressed the button, plunging us into darkness.

“Heehee, you’re so strong….”

“Isn’t this what you wanted…?”

“Un, it was a little different. I thought Uchu~chan would give me a princess carry….”

“……I’ll do that next time.”

“Does that mean you’ll come to a hotel with me again…?”

“Well, if fate allows, perhaps….”

“Un, pervert…♡”

I only said I’d come to a hotel; I never said what I’d do, but a rather suggestive smile spread across Aki’s lips, hinting at the fantasies brewing within.

“……Carry me to the bed.”

Aki whispered into my ear.

Acknowledging her small, yet clear request, I nodded and, as she wished, scooped her up and gently laid her on the bed.

Even as she settled onto the mattress, Aki wrapped her arms around my neck, as if unwilling to let me out of her sight for even a moment, her gaze locked solely on me.

The emotion swirling within Aki’s slightly unfocused eyes, brimming with excitement…

I could understand it without a word being spoken.

Because I, too, desired something similar.

“……Heeh, you want to pounce on me?”

“……”

“Don’t you want to, like… do something naughty with me…?”

“……”

To say no would be a lie.

That’s a blatant lie, as well.

To be alone with a cute and pretty childhood friend in an unfamiliar place, lying on a bed, no less. It would be strange *not* to think those thoughts.

…But.

Deep down, a conviction was hammered into my very core: under no circumstance could I go all the way.

Because I was serious about a future with Aki.

I didn’t want to surrender to mere desire, a fleeting moment of pleasure.

I wanted, as some say, to receive everyone’s blessings… I had absolutely no desire to be pointed at in scorn.

“…Not yet.”

“Hng, even…like this?”

*Squish, squish*.

Aki pressed her chest against me with all her might.

Her soft br*easts, swathed in a shower gown, met my pectoral muscles without the slightest gap.

Already substantial, but seeming to grow larger recently, Aki’s br*easts gifted me with the utmost bliss.

Skin against skin, both Aki and I became naturally aroused, embracing each other fiercely, our lips meeting.

“Tch… Haa, even…like this?”

“……”

“Even like this…even like *this*…?”

Aki rubbed her chest against mine, a slow, smooth caress.

Having showered and not putting on anything underneath, the pressure felt more intense than usual, her br*easts visibly denting and distorting under the force.

“Ha, uuh…”

*Thud*.

Aki writhed, hugging me tightly.

And then, something I couldn’t bring myself to name met Aki’s lower abdomen flush.

“……”

“……”

Aki, surprised by something larger than she’d anticipated, gasped softly and glanced downwards.

“…Uh, it’s really…big, mmph.”

“…Stop, that’s enough.”

Just as words that shouldn’t come from a student’s lips were about to escape, I hastily clapped my hand over Aki’s mouth.

Aki, eyes strangely alight with excitement, looked up at me, then darted her gaze back down below, over and over.

After some time, only when I saw the excitement in Aki’s eyes had calmed a little, did I withdraw my hand.

“Woo-joo~chan.”

“Yeah.”

“……For someone who pretended to be nonchalant, you were actually pretty excited, huh?”

“……”

*Don’t say it.*

*In the end, she’s gone and said it…*

The words were true, so I had no response and slightly averted my gaze.

“Just, closing your eyes and saying it just once…. You could feel relieved….”

“…….”

*Don’t listen.*

This is Aki, the little devil, whispering to seduce me, a devil’s whisper.

“……I even wore really thin, racy underwear.”

A furtive glance.

It was only a fleeting moment, but Aki, quick to notice, chuckled softly and breathed into my ear.

“This is something only one person in the world, just Woo-joo~chan, can see, you know…?”

“…….”

“So, if you just say one word that you want to see it…. I’ll show you.”

“See…”

“Yeah, see…?”

“……”

*’I want to see it, I want to see it, I want to see it, I want to see it, I want to see it, I want to see it…!’*

I want to see what kind of underwear Aki wore for me.

I really, desperately, so so much want to see it that I feel like I’m going crazy.

But.

I know.

If I see the racy underwear that Aki is wearing in this state, there will be no turning back.

With a heart spitting blood, I clenched my teeth.

“Don’t show it, just wear it nicely. …I’ll see it later.”

“There is no later…?”

“…What?”

“This. If you don’t look at it now… I’ll just go home and throw it away, and never show it to you again. Forever.”

What was that.

She wouldn’t show it to me forever…?

For a fleeting moment, I wondered if she was saying that to threaten me.

But soon the thought flickered through my mind that Aki was the kind of girl who didn’t threaten, she actually *did* it.

Which meant, Aki was one hundred percent serious when she said, ‘If you don’t look now, I’m throwing it away’.

“You still won’t look…?”

“……”

“Really, really won’t look…? You won’t be able to see it again…?”

“……”

“……Hmph, fine.”

Aki chuckled softly.

Should I just say I’ll look now…?

But the moment had already passed.

Aki, glancing down at the inside of her bathrobe.

Deliberately pulled the fabric over her chest forward, as if to say, ‘look at me,’ slightly. Just slightly revealing the design of her underwear.

“You’ll never see this underwear again. …And it’s so s*xy and pretty.”

She declared coldly.

“……”

It was only a moment, but I saw it clearly.

Black lingerie.

What Aki was wearing under her bathrobe was a sheer piece of lingerie, riddled with tiny holes here and there…!

‘…Ah.’

I should have just looked.

I should have said I’d look…

“…Woo-joo-chan.”

“…Hm?”

“Remember this.”

“What…?”

“Today isn’t the end. …This is just the beginning.”

Aki extended her right hand, fingers splayed – index, middle, and ring finger erect, the others tucked away.

As if trying to depict the number three.

“Three months.”

“…Huh?”

“Within these next three months, I’ll let you ambush me first.”

“……”

Three months, eh.

Can I even endure that long…?

“…So,”

Aki’s gaze sweeps over my body.

“Keep caring for it, just like you are now. …It’s mine, after all.”

“……”

I don’t know what she means by ‘caring’ for it.

No, actually, I think I do.

Regardless, my heart thumps at those words.

“…Come here, Ujuu~chan.”

“Why…?”

“To mark my territory, one more time…”

“……”

I must really be a fool…
