91 – Heat

After the game, I went straight back to the club room. There were so many people, it seemed difficult to find members from the stands and go back together.

After the duel, the evening at the academy was full of festivities. A banquet commemorating the duel was being held in the cafeteria, and countless people were looking around the academy on campus, each holding a piece of food in their hand and laughing.

Aria, who learned that lobster was on the special menu for dinner, decided to have dinner at the banquet hall after much thought.

We all arrived at the banquet hall and ate to our heart’s content. Dinner was very friendly and full of laughter.

Leave Aria holding a lobster in her mouth and holding a lobster in both hands, as if that wasn’t enough, and Kane, who pretended to be a stranger and averted her gaze, ashamed of her appearance. We decided to enjoy the rest of the evening.

La Card also seemed to want to spend time separately from her fiancé, so they split up in the middle.

I must have eaten too. Thinking of going for a walk at night, I went out with Luna. Every street was packed with people, wondering where so many gathered.

After buying a cheese churros from a tent set up along the side of the road that smells delicious. I walked to the empty lot at the back of the combat unit dormitory, which was rarely visited, and took a seat on a bench.

I smiled at Luna thinking that she was like a hamster at the cute appearance of Luna, who was eating churros with her cheeks tucked in her stomach, saying that dessert was different, and I opened my mouth at a sudden thought.

“Luna, I want to ask you something.”

“Yes. What?”

I carefully opened my mouth while wiping Luna’s hand covered in powdered sugar.

“That we are dating. Do you want to keep it a secret?”

At my question, Luna looked at me with her eyes wide open. It must have been a completely unexpected question. Come to think of it, it was a bit of a question without context.

But I wanted to have a serious conversation with Luna about this from before. Even if it’s an academy with no status, it doesn’t change the fact that I’m a commoner after all.

Unlike me, Luna is the only daughter of a count. The mere fact that she is in a relationship with a commoner may become a major stumbling block when entering the social world later.

At my question, Luna hung her head and said nothing.

Maybe he’s worried about a sudden question. When you are thinking that you should give yourself time to think without rushing.

Luna jerked her head up and looked at me with her beautiful blue eyes. It was a very pretty eye.

“What about Ross?”

“Huh?”

“My, I’m your girlfriend… Do you want to brag?”

She pursed her lips with a look of anticipation, and the corner of her mouth went up involuntarily as she saw her blushing face. Suddenly, I thought that the word lovable fits very well.

“Of course not. You are such a lovely girlfriend. But, I don’t want to harm you for nothing.”

“… Damage?”

Seeing Luna tilting her head with an incomprehensible expression, I organized the thoughts in her head and said.

“It’s me, because I’m a commoner. Although he was proud of dating a nobleman, a famous third-generation nobleman in the east, and a count’s daughter. From your point of view, it would be a big loss if you disclosed that you were dating a commoner. If possible, to the good of each other-“

Before I could finish my words, Luna’s lips blocked me. The soft touch of her lips made the words disappear from her mouth.

Taken aback by the sudden kiss, I reflexively pulled her body back. Luna, who held onto my sleeve to keep her from escaping, silently closed her eyes and continued to kiss her lips.

I naturally closed my eyes as I felt Luna’s breath on her upper lip and the soft and warm feeling on her lips.

A long time later. As our lips parted, Luna held me tight and puffed out her cheeks.

“Don’t say that. Don’t even think about it…. I’ve never thought of it that way. I’m so happy that Ross is my boyfriend… Glad. I still don’t know what to do.”

I couldn’t help but burst into laughter at the sight of Luna telling her true feelings while enduring embarrassment with her red-hot face.

“Really?”

At my mischievous question, Luna lifted her sleeve, which she silently held on to, and took my hand in hers, and then she suddenly brought my hand to her chest.

When I stood still with a dumbfounded expression on Luna’s behavior, Luna whispered.

“Can you feel it? It’s always like this with Ross.”

At Luna’s words, I could feel the rapid beating of her heart in her hands. More than any words, it was an action that allowed me to realize Luna’s sincerity towards me.

Perhaps belatedly realizing her actions, Luna looked down at her, so without saying a word, I grabbed Luna’s hand and put it on my chest.

“I heard that if you love you, you resemble each other. Is this also similar?”

Luna looked at me blankly at her words, felt my heart beat fast with her fingertips, and suddenly tears began to well up in her eyes.

I was taken aback by the sight of a single tear falling down my new cheek in an instant, and I immediately pulled Luna into her arms.

“Why? Why are you crying?”

In lieu of answering my question, Luna, who dug deeper into my arms, said after a while as if muttering.

“Too… I like it.”

My heart tickled at Luna’s teary voice. Because of that, I tried to shake off my embarrassment, and my nasty mischief reared its head.

“Are you in love with me?”

Luna, noticing my playful voice, responded by gently pinching her side so as not to hurt.

As I stroked Luna’s concave back hair, I whispered as if I was making a promise.

“I will become a person who is not ashamed of you. To the extent that I can proudly boast to others that I am a boyfriend. I will become a great person.”

Luna, who was burying her face in her arms, lifted her head at my words and looked at me with her pretty watery blue eyes.

“No, no, that’s okay.”

“Huh?

When I asked with a dumbfounded look at her reaction that was different from what I expected, Luna slightly stuck out her lips and put her hands together in front of her chest and said with all her heart.

“Even if everyone points fingers and curses at me, I don’t care. Even if I’m not proud of Ross, I won’t change my mind.”

I felt a strange feeling spread from her heart to the whole body as she looked up at me from her arms and looked at her with her lips pursed as if she was determined to do so.

I feel like I have goosebumps on my arms for some reason. The tips of his toes twitched by themselves, and his heart beat faster than before.

Could you give this strange feeling a name?

A variety of addictive emotions such as excitement, love, and satisfaction shook my head.

When I was fidgeting in my arms and giving strength to Luna’s actions as she touched my stomach.

Luna looked at me with watery eyes, as if she had suddenly thought of something.

With her blue eyes trembling slightly as if she were anxious, Luna, who was fingering my belly with her fingers, spoke in her small voice.

“If your parents oppose your marriage… You have to run away with me. Understand?”

“… What?”

She burst into laughter at Luna’s unexpected words, dumbfounded. How far has she suddenly gone? Today, she was very curious about Luna’s mind.

“Dae, answer me! You’re running away from love with me… !”

Looking at her with a smile on her face, Luna held her body even tighter as if she was uneasy, and continued her words.

“It’s like, you live in a mountain where no one looks for you. I build a house, and I bake delicious pies every day….”

I hugged Luna, who was stammering and gibberish, and I gently stroked her hair along with her sigh of satisfaction.

“Haa, what should I really do with you?”

Because of this madly lovely lover, the corner of his mouth kept going up, and now his cheekbones were hurting.

The love in her heart knows no bounds and soars madly, and her mind is full of her greed that she does not want to let Luna out of her arms.

It’s against the rules to be this cute and lovable. I felt that no matter what request Luna made of me, she wouldn’t be able to refuse.

Luna’s lovely request was a stronger constraint than Gias.

I am for Luna. She realized once again that she could do anything.

“Don’t just laugh… ! Medicine, promise me.”

It was very lovely to see Luna holding out her little finger and whining like her child.

“Even if the whole world opposes it, I will do anything as long as I like you. It’s okay to turn the whole world into an enemy.”

Let’s put the pinky finger, and even her thumb. Perhaps she was happy to receive my confirmation, but because of Luna who held her body closer to me, the scent rushed to the tip of her nose.

Playfully sticking her nose in the crown of her head and sniffing her, Luna jumped up in amazement and raised her hand to cover the top of her head. Her appearance was so cute that I burst into a light smile without even realizing it.

“What, what are you doing!”

Contrary to her grunting voice, I replied with a smirk to Luna who was leaning on me.

“Why~ I smell good here too?”

Rubbing her nose in Luna’s hand, I let her breathe in through her nose deliberately. Luna held my nose.

“Ha, don’t! I’m embarrassed….”

“Arather….”

When I finally answered with the sound of her nose, Luna, who let go of her nose, looked around her and suddenly climbed onto my thigh.

I unknowingly swallowed her saliva at the scent of her Luna and the soft skin felt under her clothes.

“I told her members that we were dating…. Can I tell you?”

“Huh? Do you want to do that?”

When asked, puzzled by her Luna’s words, she pursed her lips in embarrassment and finally whispered in a small voice.

“Now I want to talk to the members….”

Looking at Luna, I understood a little bit of the emotions Roel was showing me.

Luna’s behavior of overcoming her timid personality and approaching her first was truly admirable. Satisfaction, fulfillment. Similar feelings began to well up in her mind.

“Oops, our Luna is already grown up.”

Speaking playfully, clutching her soft cheeks, Luna pursed her lips and rolled her eyes as if she had suddenly remembered something of hers.

“… Loss.”

“Is there anything else you want to say? Let it out to your heart’s content I’ll listen to you.”

What else would you say to embarrass me? It was about to be expected now. When I looked at Luna with her curious eyes, Luna’s blue eyes trembled. Soon, her trembling stopped, and she looked straight at me with determined eyes as if she had made up her mind.

“I want to receive the compensation I mentioned earlier… ?”

I couldn’t help but look at Luna, who was staring at me with her ears red, with her stupid expression. She really couldn’t predict Luna.

My heart started beating wildly, as if someone had kicked me in the chest. My mind went white and I didn’t know what to answer. In the end, I had no choice but to ask in a stupid voice.

“What… ?”

I was taken aback by Luna, leaning her upper body slightly and holding her body close to her, stuttering with her eyes full of heat that she had never seen before, she said.

“I’m Jun, I’m ready….”

While saying that, Luna’s hand, which held my hand, felt very hot.
