"I just wanted to make Mother Fujiwara feel even better."
"I didn't feel better at all! I only felt awful!" Secretary Chika covered her cheeks with her hands, refusing to admit it. "Also, I told you not to call me that!"
"Sure, sure."
"N-no kissing my neck... It tickles..."
"Then where should I kiss you?"
"Just... not my neck."
"Got it."
"..."
The ticklish sensation on her neck vanished, and Fujiwara Chika couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief. She had just started to relax when, the next second, she suddenly widened her beautiful eyes in disbelief and arched her neck involuntarily. A trembling, suppressed moan escaped her lips, and the air seemed to turn pink.
"Mmm... Ah—!!!"
Fortunately, the rocky shore was deserted, so there was no need to worry about anyone hearing them. Otherwise, she would definitely have suffered a Social Death.
"W-wait, wait, wait..." Secretary Chika's voice trembled. "President, don't..."
Amamiya Natsuki mumbled,
"You said I couldn't kiss your neck. That means everywhere else is fair game."
"President, don't be so mean!!!"
"..."
A short while later.
Secretary Chika finally reached her limit and pushed Amamiya Natsuki away, then swam to the opposite shore in a huff.
Amamiya Natsuki followed behind her. "I won our race just now, so please don't forget our bet, Chika-sama."
"There was no bet!" Secretary Chika puffed out her rosy cheeks, her neck and the tips of her ears all dyed crimson. "Don't even think about that kind of thing!"
"..."
The two swam back to shore. Fujiwara Chika finally calmed down, then darted over to Kaguya's side and stayed there, refusing to be alone with Amamiya Natsuki again in case he teased her.
Amamiya Natsuki behaved himself and continued swimming alone.
"Splash."
Water sprayed into the air.
