Sakurajima Mai had never imagined it.
She ended up agreeing to such an excessive request.
Even.
Just like some TV dramas she had watched before.
There wasn't another place to rest in her apartment.
It seemed like everything happened naturally.
Was it yesterday, the moment sunlight appeared in the darkness? Was it the strong and reliable figure on the train yesterday?
Or was it the delicious food? Or the quick arrival after just one phone call today? Or the decision to open an agency to protect her?
She was already a high school senior.
A child star since debut.
She could say she understood the ups and downs of life better than most people.
And yet, it was her.
Who easily accepted the words "Can we rest together?"
Sakurajima Mai understood.
She was attracted to everything about Natsuhiko, like a moth drawn to a flame.
Natsuhiko felt happiness came a bit too suddenly.
He tentatively made an almost unreasonable request, and the result was that they were now sharing a pillow.
The scent of shampoo mixed with an unknown fragrance wafted into his nose.
Sweet, ticklish, and very pleasant!
The room's lighting had been adjusted to a very atmospheric brightness, and the place where they were lying wasn't crowded at all, it felt totally OK even with two people.
And the distance between them was enough to put a quilt.
Natsuhiko felt a little restless, this wasn't like him at all!
"How about this, Mai-senpai? Why don't you talk about your acting career? To be honest, I don't have a direct understanding of an actor's life."
So that the demon inside him wouldn't fly out.
He proactively changed the subject.
Mai-senpai seemed to sense Natsuhiko's nervousness at that moment.
She didn't dare to move an inch.
Only her ethereal voice echoed in the air.
"I debuted in the entertainment industry when I was six years old, and I became the center of attention as soon as I debuted."
"My first movie... my first radio drama... my first advertisement... when I was fourteen, my popularity reached its peak again..."
"My mother founded an entertainment agency..."
Under Sakurajima Mai's narration.
Natsuhiko slowly understood things about actors, about her, about her mother, and about the conflicts.
Mai-senpai seemed to have been holding back for a long time, and she told her story.
During this time.
Natsuhiko only acted as a listener.
Without expressing any opinions.
Just listening.
...
Two hours later.
The two got out of bed and took out two glasses of cold white wine from the refrigerator.
And raised their glasses in a toasting motion.
Not bad.
Drinking in the middle of the night felt pretty good.
Natsuhiko considered going to his own store to get some wine to store back.
The fruity aroma was also fascinating.
Natsuhiko finished the wine in his glass in one gulp, then put it back on the table.
Then he went back to bed.
...
They looked at each other in silence.
Half an hour later.
"Mai-senpai, are you asleep?"
Natsuhiko asked with a serious expression.
To be honest, he wasn't sleepy at all, he was really full of energy now, always switching back and forth between two states: being like an animal and not being an animal.
Sakurajima Mai turned her head over, her eyes blinked, her eyelashes were long and very beautiful.
Natsuhiko pursed his lips, the wine he had just swallowed couldn't relieve his current fiery feeling at all.
"Hey, from now on, I'll call you Mai, and you can call me Hiko!"
He looked directly into her kind eyes and smiled slightly.
"Hey, Mai!"
Even though Sakurajima Mai hadn't agreed yet, Natsuhiko opened his mouth forcefully.
"Hiko?"
As if overwhelmed by the aura that Natsuhiko suddenly burst out, Mai became a little cautious.
The man and woman called out each other's names, face to face, in extremely close proximity where they could feel each other's breathing.
"I'm a normal man, and men all have sins, and I am even more sinful."
Natsuhiko placed his chin on Mai's shoulder.
"Next, I'm going to count my sins."
"Huh? Ah..."
Mai felt her heart pounding like a clock striking rapidly, and the muscles all over her body, from head to toe, were as hot as if she had a fever.
After a two-hour conversation.
She originally thought that what she had expected today wouldn't happen.
But this feeling?
Full of anticipation, her heart was beating fast, and her whole body was hot.
Her mind seemed to be blank.
Fortunately, his body has always been this good.
When his body recovered to a fighting state, he couldn't wait for a second round. For Natsuhiko, this was such a sweet experience.
As for Mai, she didn't even have the energy to turn her gaze to her side.
Usually, this kind of behavior consumes more energy for boys than girls, but the initial nervousness doesn't fully apply to this theory.
And so it continued.
"Mai..."
"Hiko!"
"I will be good to you."
"Mm!"
Naturally searching for the other's hand, and holding it together.
Incredibly.
The other's body temperature felt even more comfortable and reassuring at this moment.
The night before dawn faintly started to brighten.
The two finally began to calm down, naturally snuggling together and quietly falling asleep.
...
When Natsuhiko woke up again.
The time was already pointing to 6 in the morning.
No choice.
His body and mind were just that great.
He put his phone back in place, continued to lie in bed and turned to the left, and before him was her defenseless sleeping face, like a sleeping rabbit.
Maintaining a lying position, Natsuhiko put his right hand around Mai's back, as if to hug her, and then gently patted her back with his palm, as if coaxing a child to sleep.
Mai's breathing against his chest, and the feeling he felt in the palm of his hand, all verified that he had indeed had closer and more direct contact with this woman.
[First experience together, gained +400 youth points]
Although he thought that developing to this point would gain a large number of youth points.
But this number still startled him.
From then on.
Another person who truly formed a bond with him!
For Mai, this flash of lightning development was like a dream.
For Natsuhiko, it was the same.
At this moment, he deeply felt that his connection with this world had deepened.
And his responsibilities had also increased.
