December 25th, at midnight sharp.
At that time, which is marketed by countless businesses as a "holy day for lovers", most couples are still planning a carefully planned date after the morning sun shines.
However, in this room belonging to Kazehara Tetsu, the script did not unfold according to the conventional routine full of pink bubbles.
In the bathroom, water vapor filled the air into a vast white patch.
Shower Head The hot water spurted out and hit the tiles, making a gurgling sound, covering up most of the sounds from the outside world.
At this time, Kazehara Tetsu is standing under the water flow.
In this unprepared state, human instinctive alertness is usually reduced to a minimum.
But just then.
"Click."
That was the sound of the Entrance Hall door being opened.
Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of footsteps that were not too heavy.
At this point in time, the Dormitory door can be opened so grandly without any reservation.
You don't have to think twice to know who it is.
In this huge Campus, there is only Kamuro Masumi in his room Spare Key.
According to the general development of ethics dramas, perhaps some embarrassing "Bathroom Raid" incident should happen at this time.
For example, a boy who is taking a shower is caught by a girl, or a girl takes the opportunity to break into the bathroom and stage a seduction.
However, the behavior of the man outside was surprisingly... "gentleman".
The footsteps paused for half a second outside the bathroom door, as if to confirm the situation inside.
"Hello."
Through that door, Kamuro Masumi's iconic cold voice came in.
"It's not dead yet? If it's not dead yet, wash it quickly and don't waste water."
There was no intention of pushing the door open, nor was there any shy scream.
After she confirmed that Kazehara Tetsu was indeed taking a shower, the footsteps sounded again and she walked straight into the room.
She sat on the bed that belonged to Kazehara Tetsu.
"Huh..."
Five minutes later, as the faucet was tightened, the sounds in the bathroom suddenly stopped.
Kazehara Tetsu casually grabbed a bath towel, wiped his hair and body briefly, and then wrapped it around his waist.
Opening the door, there was only one bedside lamp turned on in the room.
Kamuro Masumi is sitting cross-legged on the edge of the bed.
Her long purple hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and she was playing with her mobile phone boredly.
When he saw Kazehara Tetsu walking out with his upper body naked and only a bath towel around his waist, Kamuro Masumi did not scream or cover his face like an ordinary innocent girl.
"Finished washing?"
She threw the phone back on the table, her tone as calm as asking "Have you eaten?"
"I said, Kamuro."
Kazehara Tetsu took out clean clothes from the closet and put them on in no hurry.
"Although you have the key, I also Tacit Approval you occasionally treat this place as your own home. But..."
He glanced at the electronic clock on the wall.
00:05.
"Why are you here so late? If I remember correctly, tonight's Christmas Eve activities should have ended, right? It's time to go to bed now."
Kazehara Tetsu walked to the bed and looked down at the uninvited guest who had occupied his bed.
"Or do you want to attack at night? Although I don't mind, but you are not the straight-shooting type, right?"
"It's a beautiful thought."
Kamuro Masumi rolled his eyes at him, his disgusted expression extremely vivid.
"Who would attack a playboy like you at night?"
Although her mouth was so venomous, her body did not move at all.
She raised her head and looked directly into Kazehara Tetsu's eyes.
Under the dim light, her cheeks seemed to be slightly red. She didn't know whether it was because the heating in the room was too high or because of some other reason.
"I just..."
Kamuro Masumi paused, seeming to be organizing his words, and looking for a reasonable excuse for his seemingly unreasonable behavior.
"Be the first."
These four words are a bit abrupt.
"First? What's first?"
Kazehara Tetsu was stunned for a moment, then put on a black T-shirt and asked casually.
"Christmas's first."
Kamuro Masumi took a deep breath, as if he had left some sense of shame behind, and his tone became stronger.
"I know what kind of bad person you are... Your Christmas must have been fully booked for a long time, right?"
She knows very well the virtues of Kazehara Tetsu.
This man is greedy and insatiable.
Tomorrow, that is, during the day, there will definitely be various reservations.
"I don't want to worry about how you allocate your time, and I don't want to compete with those women for the right to date during the day. That kind of thing is too much trouble."
Kamuro Masumi propped his hands back on the bed and leaned back slightly.
"But."
"Now that the day has begun."
"Since the current minute of 00:00 is the first second of 'today'."
"So..."
"At this point in time, in your room, by your side... it has to be me."
"Even if it's just this boring time period, even if I just sit here for a while... I still want to occupy this 'number one' title."
"I'm too lazy to care too much about your carefree private life, but at least now, I've won this 'number one' date."
This speech simply interprets the words "Tsundere" and "exclusive desire" to the extreme.
"..."
Kazehara Tetsu stopped dressing and looked at her funny.
"Ha..."
In the end, he couldn't hold back his laughter.
"I'm talking about you... why do you have to fight about this?"
He sat down on the empty seat next to Kamuro Masumi, and the mattress collapsed slightly due to the weight of the two of them.
"The so-called 'first' is just a concept of time."
"Moreover, for this false reputation, he came here in the middle of the night, and even did not hesitate to sneak into Boys' Dormitory like a pervert on such a cold day..."
"Aren't these things done by idiot couples who have no actual relationship, or who have just started falling in love and want to prove something through this sense of ritual?"
"Masumi, when did you become so... girlish?"
"Shut up."
Kamuro Masumi, whose thoughts were exposed, slapped his hand away in anger.
"Stop talking to me about those nonsense."
She turned her head and stopped looking at Kazehara Tetsu, leaving him with only a slightly red ear.
"Anyway..."
Her voice lowered, but still had that unyielding energy.
"As long as I understand."
"This is a battle of victory and defeat. And at this moment, here and now... I am the winner."
"Yes yes yes."
He sighed helplessly, fell back, and lay directly on the bed, with his hands behind his head.
"You win, Kamuro."
"This Christmas's first gift... that is, myself, now belongs to you."
"That's pretty much it."
Hearing this sentence, although Kamuro Masumi tried hard to lower the corners of his mouth, he could not help but raise an extremely small arc upwards.
She turned around and looked at Kazehara Tetsu lying next to her.
That's a very amazing feeling.
"Hello."
Kamuro Masumi stretched out his foot and lightly kicked Kazehara Tetsu's calf.
"What for?"
Kazehara Tetsu closed his eyes, enjoying this rare tranquility.
"Since I am number one..."
Kamuro Masumi hesitated for a moment, and then seemed to make a decision.
"Then don't sleep."
she said.
"At this point in time, since it's a 'date', even if you're in a daze in the room... you have to stay with me."
"If you dare to fall asleep... I will draw your face like a pig's head and send it to Campus Forum."
"How domineering..."
Kazehara Tetsu muttered, but did not refute, let alone drive her away.
He just stretched out a hand, waved it in mid-air, then landed on the back of Kamuro Masumi's hand, and held it gently.
"Got it."
"Since I have been 'kidnapped' by the number one, as a prisoner I... will risk my life to accompany the gentleman tonight."
Kamuro Masumi looked at the hands of the two people overlapping each other.
Her fingers moved slightly, but in the end she did not break free, but instead clasped Kazehara Tetsu's fingers with her backhand.
In this late night that only Feng Xue knows.
At the beginning of this Christmas that belongs to them.
