Going to School with Gwen

It wasn't until George left that Kino opened his eyes and looked at Gwen leaning on his shoulder.

I didn't sleep all night.

Sure enough, I can't fall asleep without holding something in my hand.

"Gwen, wake up."

Kino gently patted Gwen.

"Hmm, Mom, let me sleep a little longer."

Gwen whimpered sleepily, her eyes still closed, completely immersed in a sweet dream.

She hugged Kino's arm tightly, as if she were hugging a beloved doll, and gently rubbed her forehead against Kino's face.

Then she buried herself even deeper into Kino's neck, muttering, "Such a fragrant baby, and so warm..."

Etc!

Gwen's muddled mind instantly cleared, and she suddenly realized something was wrong—where did such a large doll come from in her room?

She opened her eyes in alarm, only to be met with a pair of eyes full of smiles.

Good morning, little piggy.

"Wow!"

Gwen screamed and sprang up like a spring, leaping directly to the ceiling.

Everything that happened last night flooded her mind as clearly as a tidal wave.

"Hurry up and get down, you'll be late for class."

Kino remained calm and began changing his clothes right in front of Gwen.

"Huh? Oh."

Gwen then came to her senses and, compared to Kino's composure, realized that her behavior just now had been far too exaggerated.

I jumped down and walked past Kino from behind, stealing a glance at his strong back, the smooth inverted triangle shape—such a great physique.

I couldn't help but touch it with my finger, but the firm muscles felt like a hot iron, and I quickly withdrew my finger.

"What's wrong? Is there something behind me?"

Kino feigned confusion.

"Yes, there's a thread. I'll remove it for you. Hurry up, we're going to be late."

Gwen quickly patted her flushed cheeks and hurried out the door.

Kino watched her flustered appearance and a smile crept onto his lips. The naive Gwen was truly amusing.

Gwen found the key, opened her room, and hurriedly put on her school uniform.

When Gwen finally got dressed and went outside, she saw Kino leaning against the railing.

The boy was tall and straight, and even in a simple white T-shirt and jeans, he exuded a certain air of nobility.

"What are you looking at?"

Kino noticed her gaze and raised an eyebrow, asking a question.

"N-nothing!"

Gwen turned her face away and strode towards the door. "Hurry up, we're really going to be late if we dawdle any longer!"

The two hurried downstairs, Madam Mary had already prepared breakfast. Seeing her daughter's disheveled hair and Kino's calm demeanor, she smiled knowingly.

Eat slowly and be careful on the road.

Gwen sensed something strange in her mother's eyes, but didn't have time to think about it. She grabbed a few slices of bread and dragged Kino out the door.

"Mom, we're leaving."

On the subway, Gwen was still a little uncomfortable and deliberately kept her distance from Kino.

Kino, seemingly oblivious, pulled out her phone and started searching for something.

"Gwen, are there any tech stores near your school? I'd like to buy some parts."

"Parts? What are you going to do with them?"

Gwen leaned closer curiously, her hair brushing against Kino's arm, causing a slight tickle.

"I have a surprise for you."

Kino winked mysteriously.

"After all, you're going to show me around the school, so I have to give you something in return."

"Pshaw, the school labs have all that stuff; I can apply to use it for free."

Gwen pursed her lips, but a strange sense of anticipation welled up inside her.

The subway arrived at the station, and the two followed the flow of people out of the station. Gwen once again grabbed Kino's hand and ran towards the school.

As soon as I reached the school gate, several of Gwen's classmates surrounded me.

"Gwen, who is this?"

A female classmate looked Kino up and down with a smile in her eyes, her gaze full of curiosity.

"This is Kino, my family's... new friend." Gwen introduced him somewhat awkwardly, her cheeks slightly flushed.

"Wow, he's so handsome! Gwen, when did you meet such a handsome friend? Why didn't you tell us sooner?"

"Hey handsome, wanna go on a date tonight? The three of us can go together."

"Gwen, do you want to come along?"

As she listened to the girls' invitations to Kino, Gwen suddenly felt a little annoyed for some reason, and she cleared her throat.

"Alright, alright, let's go in quickly, the first class is about to start."

Upon entering the classroom, Gwen seated Kino in the empty seat next to her.

When the female teacher entered the classroom, she was taken aback when she saw Kino. Gwen quickly explained that she was there to visit. Although the teacher was a little puzzled, she nodded and began the lesson.

However, the students were not focused on their studies; their eyes kept glancing at the new classmate, and they were whispering among themselves.

"They're foreigners! They look like they're from the East."

"Have you noticed that he's not wearing makeup? You can't even see his pores."

"Was that Gwen's boyfriend?"

Kino didn't care; it was nothing to him.

Gwen's cheeks flushed from the whispers of her classmates. She stole a glance at Kino, who seemed completely unfazed. She nudged Kino with her elbow and whispered:

"Can't you be a little more discreet?"

Kino tilted his head slightly, leaning close to her ear, his warm breath brushing against Gwen's neck, causing her to tremble slightly.

"Am I not good enough? I've only said one word to you now."

Gwen bit her lower lip, about to say something more.

The teacher handed out the test papers, and even placed one in front of Kino. At the very top of the paper was a phone number.

Kino can only express this.

Foreigners are the ones who do it better.

Gwen saw it too, and her lips twitched. Was this guy a humanoid Succubus? How come every woman liked him?

Kino casually wrote "NO" on it. Although the other person was indeed good-looking, his taste and appetite had long since become picky.

Gwen watched Kino's actions and felt a strange sense of satisfaction, yet she also felt that her emotions were somewhat inexplicable.

She tried to bring her attention back to the exam paper, but her thoughts kept drifting to Kino.

When get out of class ended, the students around him immediately surrounded him.

"Kino, what do you usually like to do?"

Do you have a favorite celebrity?

"Want to go play basketball together?"

Even Gwen was squeezed out.

"Excuse me, please move aside. I have an appointment with Gwen that I need to attend to."

Kino wore a polite smile.

But his classmates still wouldn't give up, even though this handsome young man rarely spoke.

Kino can only repeat it once.

I said, move aside.

This time, his voice was calm and no different from before, but those around him inexplicably felt an invisible pressure, as if an irresistible force was driving them.

The students unconsciously made way for them, watching helplessly as the two left.

"Just now, I felt like I was facing my dad."

"I'm Mom."
