LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 24
It was the night Ryuichi came to Shizuna’s house after her date with him. After having dinner with Sakie, they went into her room and spent a time as sweet as honey together. Since this was her second time, her body was relaxed, and Ryuichi, now less reserved than their first time, ravished her body senseless.
“Just like I said last time, if you feel pain anywhere then tell me ASAP, okay?”
Although he was no longer reserved, Ryuichi’s concern for Shizuna still remained the same. Basking in that kindness of his, Shizuna took in all the love that was being given to her. It was truly a blissful time…so much so that she wished the moment could last forever.
“…Ryuichi-kun. ♪”
She was currently gazing at Ryuichi as he slept. They’d been sleeping together in her bed a while ago, but she abruptly awoke feeling thirsty. His face was still as stern as always, but he really looked cute when he slept like this, as befitted his age.
“This is pretty nice too. Making love with the person you love, sleeping on the same bed with them…and gazing at their sleeping face; they’re all so wonderful, I can’t find any other word to express it.”
She could never hope to have a better relationship with him than this, yet deep down, she would very much love to become Ryuichi’s one and only. Even if she couldn’t have that special relationship with him, she could no longer think of leaving his side. That was just how large a presence he’d become in her mind. It goes without saying that their relationship was still very much an impure one, though, so if she were to show past Shizuna the Shizuna of today, she would probably be surprised and even collapse in shock.
“Oh, right. Water.”
Remembering that she was thirsty, Shizuna left the room and headed for the living room. On her way there, she found that the door to Sakie’s room was slightly ajar and light was leaking out from the inside, so it seemed she was still basking in the afterglow of what had just happened.
“Fufu, as a daughter, I don’t have any complicated feelings, strangely enough. After all, seeing my mom make such a blissful expression makes me happy too, regardless of the method.”
Of course, it was easy to imagine what her words were referring to. Sakie had been informed that Ryuichi would be staying over from the very start, but it seemed her memories with Ryuichi were an unforgettable moment for her as well. Previously, she’d tried so hard to hold herself back, but this time Sakie was so conscious of Ryuichi that even Shizuna could see through her.
“If Shizuna’s fine with it, then sure, why not?”
“Yes, I don’t mind. Mom, isn’t it lonely just standing there? Why don’t you come in with us?”
Startled, Sakie made a loud crash noise outside the door. Although Shizuna felt bad for scaring her, she couldn’t help but laugh in amusement. Well, in any case, the two had already agreed on it beforehand, and all three of them were satisfied in the end, so that was all that mattered to Shizuna.
“…Haah, so refreshing. ♪”
The cold water passed down her throat and quenched her thirst. It then flowed through her esophagus to her stomach, taking with it the slight stickiness that was sticking to her throat. It saddened her a little, but more than that, she smiled in joy at the feeling of it going deeper into her body.
“…You’re so wonderful ♪. Ryuichi-kun…Ryuichi-kun… ♪”
As soon as her mind wandered slightly, she started muttering Ryuichi’s name. She loved the way he protected her with his big back; she loved the way he pushed her down on the bed with his big body; she loved him for his caring side; she loved him for his rough side; she loved every single part of him.
“I really am a masochist, aren’t I?”
Ryuichi had pointed this out to her, and she realized the same while they were making out. No matter how embarrassing it was, she felt like she was fine exposing that side of her to him. She absolutely didn’t want others finding out about it, but since Ryuichi was the one who brought it out of her, she was happy. Since it was Ryuichi who had awakened it, she could come to like that side of her, too, no matter how embarrassing it was.
“…But it was definitely embarrassing to be seen by Mom.”
Well, no helping that, I guess. Shizuna wryly chuckled to herself and returned to her room. When she slowly opened the door and went , she found Ryuichi still sound asleep. Ryuichi was known as a “bad boy” at school and had earned a reputation as a delinquent, yet here he was sleeping beautifully, very beautifully. He was quietly sleeping on his back without kicking off the blanket.
“I never would’ve thought spending the night sleeping with someone would make me this happy.”
Her pillow was being used by Ryuichi, but she, in turn, was using his thick arm as a pillow. With her head on his arm, she turned her body toward him and discovered the happiness of sleeping surrounded by his powerful body and masculine scent.
“…Haaah. ♪”
She let a sweet sigh spill out of her mouth, thinking that this moment was so fulfilling that she might get addicted to it. She was happy watching Ryuichi’s sleeping face, but she was also happy to be sleeping by his side. Just as she was about to lose herself in that warmth, she saw her phone flickering.
“What could it be?”
She picked up her phone and fiddled with it to find that she had gotten a message from Sohei. At that moment, she became understandably grumpy. As she recalled, she and Ryuichi had met him while they were out in town. Sohei hadn’t noticed her in disguise, and she could not forgive him for trying to lash out at Ryuichi even though she was right beside him.
“……”
When she looked at the message, she found that it was about Ryuichi. The message told her that he’d come out of a shady establishment even though he was still a student, that he’d been accompanied by a flamboyant, promiscuous-looking woman, and that Shizuna should also be careful because he said that he would be taking that girl to his bed.
“Fufu… Ahahaha.”
She couldn’t help but laugh. Sohei had probably meant his words out of concern for Shizuna, but nobody would ever want that, not to mention that she was the promiscuous-looking woman he was talking about in the first place. It was astounding how he was on such different wavelengths in their conversation, and although it didn’t feel pleasant, she still found it amusing.
“Well, I don’t really care anymore.”
Even she was surprised at how she no longer felt anything for him anymore. She hadn’t liked the way he’d spat words at Ryuichi when they’d met on the street. She’d even gotten slightly angry at him…but the moment Ryuichi’s arms wrapped around her body and rubbed her breasts, all Shizuna could think about was Ryuichi. Her anger and even embarrassment were washed away and all she could see was him.
“How much do I love Ryuichi-kun? Say, Shizuna, how much do you love him?”
Shizuna asked herself once again. Not only her feelings, but even her body was enthralled by him. But this love hadn’t blinded her; Shizuna’s will was properly shining through. She felt wonderful to be filled with so much love for Ryuichi, but the words he’d said to her were still and would forever be etched into her mind.
“To get close to Ryuichi-kun in a color unique only to me…huh.”
To be by Ryuichi’s side with her own untainted color and radiance. This was Shizuna’s desire—her absolute wish that no one could intervene with from the outside.
“What’s the matter?”
“Wha?!”
Shizuna was thinking about various things with her phone in hand, but a voice she hadn’t expected to hear made her shoulders jump in shock. Ryuichi, who should have been asleep, had woken up and was staring at her.
“Sorry, did I wake you?”
“I felt cold without the warmth that was supposed to be right next to me… Just kidding.”
“Geez, you could’ve just said you missed me.”
“My bad, my bad.” Ryuichi laughed. At that moment, she came to realize something else: Ryuichi smiled more the few moments before he went to sleep and after he woke up. His smile that exuded ferocity was Shizuna’s favorite, but she also liked the way he smiled widely with his teeth showing like this…or rather, she’d come to like it.
“C’mere. My arm’s feelin’ lonely.”
“Yes. ♪”
There was no way Shizuna could resist when he said it like that; she immediately went up to the bed, wanting to be in his arms as soon as possible. She put her phone on the desk and made her way to Ryuichi, completely forgetting that she had seen Sohei’s message.
“I can’t get enough of this; it feels so good.”
“Heh, you’re so cute, Shizuna.”
“Urk… Of course. That’s because I’m being loved by you, Ryuichi-kun. ♪”
That was the least she could do to resist the embarrassment she felt. Ryuichi’s eyes widened for an instant, but he immediately grinned and hugged Shizuna even tighter. Her leaning on his body was part of it, but the two uppermost buttons of her pajamas were undone, revealing her ample bosom. Combined, they made her body look very indecent and sexy, but it seemed even Ryuichi wasn’t going to touch her there now.
“You looked like you were doing something with your phone in your hand. Did something come up?”
“Huh? …Oh, it’s nothing important. Nothing to worry about at all.”
“I see. Aight, then I’ll be enjoying your body till we fall asleep, yeah?”
“Oh my, by all means, go ahead.”
Shizuna was willing to do as much as he wanted of her. He buried his face in her neck and sniffed as if he was smelling her scent. Her voice leaked out at the ticklish sensation, and she squirmed and wriggled, but she continued to let him do as he pleased.
“Hey, Ryuichi?”
“Yeah?”
“You know, I truly feel happy right now. Thank you, Ryuichi-kun, for making love to me.”
“…Didn’t think you’d say something like that.”
When she saw Ryuichi’s face stunned in amazement, she giggled happily.
