The scorching heat was nothing like her own body temperature—it felt like it could ignite her entirely, setting her heart pounding wildly.
Amid the slightly naive, bewildered sensation, she intensely felt his breath, movements, heartbeat, and the sticky, intimate contact.
Her mind went blank.
Under the room's soft light, the girl's hair cascaded over her shoulders, a single strand resting on her slightly rising chest.
She tilted her neck slightly, matching the man's gentle lift of her chin, her eyes glazed with a watery haze.
Her long lashes trembled faintly, just like her body—so weak and pliant it seemed she might melt into his embrace at any moment.
Damp, soft, and tingling—this felt more like a proper kiss compared to the earlier light peck.
She closed her eyes, her fingers unconsciously loosening from their clenched fists, her stiff legs gradually relaxing.
The friction of lips, the slick and tender touch, the sweet and enticing scent of the girl, punctuated by occasional soft gasps escaping her lips.
Kaoru wrapped his arms around her waist, feeling the girl in his embrace melt like syrup.
He had only intended to tease her a little, never expecting her to be so responsive.
"Mmm… ah…"
Just as Karuizawa Kei was about to run out of breath, Kaoru pulled back.
Her ears were completely flushed, and a faint pink hue spread across her porcelain-like skin.
"I'm very satisfied with the reward Kei gave me," Kaoru chuckled lightly.
"And as a reward for Kei's hard work in class, this is my gift to you."
"Y-you're so shameless… suddenly using your tongue… pervert…"
Delayed embarrassment made Karuizawa Kei's face burn as she weakly pounded his shoulders.
"My legs feel so weak… I can barely stand…"
In many manga scenes, Karuizawa Kei had often seen heroines being kissed until their legs gave out.
Back then, she thought it looked amusing—but now that it was happening to her, all she felt was an indescribable shyness.
Being kissed until her legs went weak wasn't because Karuizawa Kei lacked stamina, but because the stimulation was overwhelming her sensitive body.
In other words, it felt too good.
Karuizawa Kei had imagined what her first love might be like.
After all, every girl dreamed of romance—a romantic atmosphere, two people gazing into each other's eyes, hearts fluttering with nervous courage as they slowly leaned in for a tender kiss…
She had succeeded, even if the pace felt a little fast.
But this feeling… wasn't unpleasant at all.
Since she didn't dislike it, it was only natural to enjoy it wholeheartedly.
A smile tugged at Karuizawa Kei's lips—no, she had already known she wouldn't hate kissing this guy.
Just as Kaoru was about to let her go, she suddenly leaned in closer, her eyes glimmering, her damp lips slightly parted.
"Hey… one more time?"
That tone, that expression—even a blind man could tell what Karuizawa Kei was asking for.
Kaoru paused, then smirked.
"If we do it again, I won't be so gentle."
"Were you gentle with her?"
The words slipped out before Karuizawa Kei could stop them, and she immediately felt a pang of panic.
She hadn't meant to say something like that.
Kaoru didn't answer.
Instead, he tilted her chin up and began his second conquest of the girl.
Though they had already kissed once, the difference in intensity and sensation was worlds apart.
It was as if he wanted to leave his mark on her—to make her acutely aware of what was happening, to ensure she knew there was no escape, that she could only surrender to the man before her.
In an instant, Karuizawa Kei was panting heavily, unable to suppress soft whimpers as the rough treatment flushed her face crimson.
Yet, she didn't pull away.
Kaoru could feel her clumsily responding to him.
As time passed, she seemed to grow more immersed, mimicking his movements, even attempting to push back against him.
Not sure if he should praise her learning ability, Kaoru had this fleeting thought before softly whispering during a pause in their breaths.
"Kei, though it might sound ridiculous, my feelings for you are the same as those for Honami. A girlfriend is a girlfriend, and love is love—there's no distinction between the main and the spare."
Karuizawa Kei's mind was still lingering on the kiss from earlier, a bit muddled, and she didn't immediately react to his words, instinctively licking her lips.
The next moment, Kaoru kissed her again, further dulling her thoughts.
"Mmm... ah..." Karuizawa Kei's waist twitched slightly as she could feel Kaoru doing something even more mischievous.
Though embarrassed, Karuizawa Kei didn't resist his actions.
Instead, her mind began to wander, flashing through various scenarios—so this is what guys really do at times like this?
Ugh, he was even worse before...
Soon, Kaoru released the flushed Karuizawa Kei, whose clothes were now slightly disheveled.
Her fair, delicate skin bore a faint blush, and without any deliberate movement, she naturally exuded an alluring charm—this must be what they call being in the throes of passion.
"Alright, the reward is over," Kaoru took a deep breath. If they continued, he might not be able to hold back tonight.
"It's too late now, you..."
Before he could finish, Karuizawa Kei, her face burning red, nudged him lightly.
"That... this thing was pressing against me the whole time just now."
Gritting his teeth, Kaoru retorted irritably, "With you like this tonight, do you think I'm a eunuch?!"
"I didn't expect it to turn out like this either. I thought I'd tease you a little, steal a kiss, and then run back right away," Karuizawa Kei covered her pretty face.
"But... but kissing you feels weird. My legs are so weak, I can't get up."
Kaoru wrapped an arm around her slender waist and fell silent for a moment.
"Kei, have you thought about the consequences?"
Thinking he meant a certain kind of consequence, Karuizawa Kei whispered.
"I saw... the school convenience store sells those things. Seems like even students can buy them."
Kaoru found it somewhat amusing.
"What I meant was, you should know I have Honami and the others around me. I can't give you a normal relationship."
Now it was Karuizawa Kei's turn to fall silent.
She lifted her face and stared straight at him.
"Kaoru, do you think someone like me could ever have a normal relationship?"
Kaoru froze for a moment before she continued, "I know exactly what you're talking about. But after everything you've done to me, do you think I could still have a normal relationship?"
"Impossible, right?" Karuizawa Kei reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Besides, you don't plan on letting me go anyway, so why should I overthink it? You promised to take responsibility for me for life, didn't you?"
Kaoru had underestimated the girl's resolve.
She might be even more intense than Ichinose Honami or Kushida Kikyo.
"This... can I touch it?"
Hmm, Karuizawa was already curiously reaching out.... to his pp.
