"Ah~"
"They're kissing, they're kissing!"
On the other side.
The three girls—Saki Yamashita, Shiho Manabe, and Rika Morofuji—were hiding behind a corner.
Their pretty faces were flushed.
They secretly watched the scene before them like curious little kids.
They were at that age when people got curious about romance.
Although they felt a little embarrassed.
None of them could bear to look away.
Especially Rika Morofuji.
Her eyes were full of shock and longing, yet there was also a trace of disdain in her heart.
They'd only just confessed their feelings, and they were already doing this. As expected, the two of them were shameless.
Rika Morofuji watched them with a sour expression.
Only after the two of them left.
Shiho Manabe secretly gave an OK sign to signal that it was time to retreat. Only then did the three of them disperse, still gossiping nonstop.
On the other side, at the dormitory.
Shiho Manabe's pretty face was flushed red.
Holding Prince Ganlongdao's hand, she was still savoring the lingering warmth from earlier.
Under Prince Ganlongdao's guidance.
She'd felt as though her mind had gone completely blank, as if she were enveloped in warm spring water, instinctively wanting to drift along with the current.
But now that she thought about it.
They'd only just confessed, and she'd already lost her first kiss.
Shiho Manabe also wondered if things had moved a little too fast.
But it had felt pretty good, too.
Prince Ganlongdao had perfectly fulfilled her fantasies about her first kiss.
Being forcefully pinned against the wall by a tall, handsome, rich guy like him, who domineeringly claimed her as his own, had perfectly fulfilled her fantasies about romance novels.
It was simply... amazing.
Shiho Manabe stole a glance at Prince Ganlongdao beside her, lightly biting her cherry-colored lip as she found herself reluctant to let go of the feeling from earlier.
The two of them arrived downstairs at the dormitory.
Prince Ganlongdao took her hand and asked softly:
"Want to come to my room?"
"Huh?"
Shiho Manabe froze for a moment, then hesitated.
Although she was curious about matters between men and women, she wasn't the sort of conservative woman who insisted on waiting until marriage.
But even a shameless woman like her.
Still had some modesty.
They'd only just confessed.
Not only had she given him her first kiss, but now she was going to his room.
That seemed a little inappropriate.
"Isn't that a bit much?"
Shiho Manabe hesitated as she explained, "I don't mean it like that. I just think it might be a little too soon."
"Oh?"
Prince Ganlongdao tapped the tip of her nose and grinned mischievously:
"What's too soon?"
"I mean..."
Shiho Manabe's pretty face turned bright red. She slapped him in annoyance. "Oh, you know what I mean! You're so bad."
And yet.
There was no sign of annoyance on her face at all.
In fact, the worse Prince Ganlongdao acted, the more she liked him. She loved that wicked feeling.
"All right. Actually, there's something I wanted to ask you."
Prince Ganlongdao shrugged. "Because of my family, I've never had to clean up after myself at home. My room's a bit messy now, so I wanted you to help me tidy it. If you don't want to, I'll ask someone from the university to come clean it."
"Oh, that's all? Don't worry, leave it to me."
Shiho Manabe patted her slightly rounded chest in assurance.
Cleaning her boyfriend's room.
Was something she was supposed to do anyway.
But when she heard it wasn't that kind of thing, she felt relieved—and yet, for some reason, a little disappointed.
All she could say was that Shiho Manabe was a shameless person.
She thought she was pretty clever, but she wasn't all that bright.
Basically.
She believed whatever Prince Ganlongdao told her.
She never even considered that someone might be taking advantage of her.
Room 602.
"Excuse me~"
Shiho Manabe stepped into the dorm room and looked around curiously.
"So this is a boys' dorm room. Why is it just like mine?"
"Other than the rooms on either side, the layout in the middle should be the same. Want something to drink? We've got cola and juice."
"No need, let me do it~ What would you like, Prince Brother?"
"Cola."
Shiho Manabe took it upon herself to handle everything.
Girls who grew up in Sakurajima.
Were generally taught from childhood to become good homemakers. They had home economics classes starting in elementary school, and some even dreamed of becoming housewives.
Even a girl like Shiho Manabe, who was a gyaru, had at least passed home economics.
She went into the kitchen.
Shiho Manabe opened the fridge and took out some juice.
Prince Ganlongdao's dorm room wasn't particularly dirty, but it wasn't exactly clean, either.
It was just an ordinary boys' dorm room.
There wasn't much stuff, either.
Apart from a yoga mat and some dumbbells, there was almost nothing else.
It seemed like it would be easy to clean.
Of course.
Shiho Manabe wasn't especially good at housework, either.
She put a lot of effort into tidying her boyfriend's room.
But.
All she really did was give it a quick sweep and mop, then call it a day...
She was shameless, not very capable, and not much of a student. She showed no talent for housework, either, and she especially loved showing off.
Her head was full of romance, and she dreamed of being a princess who found her Prince Charming.
In the eyes of others.
Aside from her looks and figure.
Shiho Manabe was probably good for nothing. She could even be so noisy that people found her annoying.
In less than ten minutes.
Shiho Manabe had finished cleaning.
That was probably because she'd made a special effort to show off.
"All done."
Shiho Manabe looked around, quite pleased with herself and seeming a little eager to show off.
"Is there anywhere else that needs cleaning?"
"..."
Prince Ganlongdao glanced around.
He truly felt that she was nowhere near as good as the servants at home. He'd have to find a woman better at housework to clean for him.
Shiho Manabe probably wouldn't mind if he taught her how to do housework now.
But he decided against it.
Making his woman do something she didn't like.
Apart from anything sexual, Prince Ganlongdao had no interest in that.
Come to think of it.
After finishing the cleaning, she'd asked him that question.
Clearly.
Deep down, Shiho Manabe had no intention of leaving.
Before entering the room, she'd been a little worried. But once she was inside, she'd become fascinated by the boys' dorm room.
She'd grown curious.
And even.
It was possible that, deep down, Shiho Manabe was looking forward to something.
She was both expectant and hesitant.
Most people were like that.
They couldn't fully understand what they really wanted.
Some people went their entire lives.
Without understanding what they truly wanted.
That was also why religions rose during times of war.
A lot of the time.
Things went much more smoothly if someone gave them a little push.
"No need."
Prince Ganlongdao walked up to Shiho Manabe.
With one hand, he pinned her against the wall, and with the other, he tilted up her smooth, delicate chin.
A wicked smile curved his lips.
"You cleaned my room so well. I should give you a little reward."
"A... re... ward..."
Shiho Manabe's heart pounded wildly.
She wanted to refuse.
They'd only just confessed, and they were already going all the way. Even Shiho Manabe thought it might be too soon.
But when she thought about how she'd already promised to be Prince Ganlongdao's woman for the rest of her life.
It didn't seem to matter whether things were fast or slow.
Only when Prince Ganlongdao reached toward the most precious part of her.
Shiho Manabe's body trembled. Her face flushed as she closed her eyes and gave herself completely to him.
