October 1st, 2033Since that day, Sophia hasn"t said a word about it, and a month has pa.s.sed. But Haruka is uneasy. It felt like she was planning something. Haruka shook his head; not even Sophia would be so cunning, right? She has her own problems. His gaze fell on his girlfriend.
"Why are we sharing a parfait?"
Lila blinked with her innocent eyes, "Isn"t this something couples do?"
"Is that so?"
He wouldn"t know how couples acted like since he"s never been in a relations.h.i.+p before. "I can think of better things."
Lila rolled her eyes, "I already know your idea of a date, and you"ve got it wrong!"
Does he?
"I thought you liked kissing."
"I do," Lila nodded, "It"s very comfortable. But I get too embarra.s.sed."
"You do get pretty red."
"Quiet bully."
She"s puffing her cheeks again; she looks adorable when she is like that. Yet, even now, there is this elegant aura surrounding her. Haruka leaned over and brushed his fingers across the girl"s cheeks, "Cream."
"Thank you!"
It still felt strange to him, being with Lila like this. However, he was getting used to it.
"Ah, you know your friend?"
"Friend?"
"The Lady you live with," Lila nodded, "I saw her with the rumored King of Entertainment.."
"Rumored King?"
"Yeah, he doesn"t have an official t.i.tle yet. But people see him as the King."
"I see," so that"s why Sophia has stayed putt lately. She already has a new man. Well, he supposes that as a relief to him. Haruka grabbed hold of Lila"s hand, "I was worried for her for a while. But if she"s okay now, I can focus on you."
Haruka only told Lila bits and pieces of his and Sophia"s relations.h.i.+p. Instead of scorning him, she listened. Currently, his girlfriend wore a checkered maroon and black skirt, with a white off-shoulder top. A beige jacket rested on the chair.
"That person scares me."
"Sophia?"
"Yes," Lila trailed off and sighed, "Maybe I"m just overthinking things. Kiryu and senpai always tell me that I tend to misunderstand situations.."
"Did she do anything?"
"Well, I ran into her at KY studios the other day, and she told me, "You haven"t won yet.""
It was only four words, but Haruka could picture Sophia saying it. "What is she planning?" Haruka thought. She even teamed up with a rumored entertainment King. Perhaps he is just overthinking things. However, he really does get a bad feeling about this.
….
"It"s getting colder, stop wearing skirts."
"I thought you liked this?"
He did, Haruka liked it a lot. But between his fetishes and her health. The latter was more important.
"I like it, but you"ll get sick."
"Ah-huh, I get it," Lila grabbed hold of his hands, "Harukkun, you spend a lot of time with me. But don"t you have to work?"
"It"s fine."
Because it really was. Haruka thought Zane would get angry at him for neglecting his job. But the other day on the phone Zane didn"t send anything, he just said to make sure the bills are paid. It surprised Haruka when he saw the numbers on his account. It seemed impossible for him to have so much money still. Indeed when he saw the transactions, Haruka noticed that Zane was still sending him money. How come?
He supposes it was fine for now. But, relying on Zane so much is not such a good idea. He"s already built up a stable connection in the entertainment industry anyway. He just hasn"t told Zane or even Sophia yet.
"Haruka, what kind of work do you do?"
"What do you think?"
"Something to do with the entertainment industry right? Otherwise how come you got me a spot at the festival so easily."
Even without him, she would have gotten that spot.
"Mmm, right."
Lila"s eyes brightened, "I"m glad we"re working on the same field."
She is, huh?
"What do you want to do today? You have the rest of the day off."
"What do you do on your days of Haruka?"

"Nothing important," he mumbled.
"Then, let"s go to my place and hang out?"
.....
- Teras.h.i.+ma Household -
Haruka liked Lila"s idea, of course. Even though by hanging out, Lila meant playing games and watching movies. But obviously under such circ.u.mstances, if the two of them were to get close to each other. n.o.body would be able to complain, like the current situation with him hugging her body. She feels so nice.
"Harukkun, let me go for a second. I need to get changed."
"Keep this on; you look pretty."
"Okay," Lila nodded and relaxed in his arms, "You know, it"s getting hard for me to hide. I"m in a relations.h.i.+p."
"The media?"
"Yes, they are very sharp about these things. Haruka, I know you said to keep it a secret before, but can"t we make it public?"
"Won"t it harm your career?"
"It won"t, will it um affect your work?"
It might do, him getting involved with a big name like Lila. Others will think he isn"t serious; they would think he is only after money. Lila must have understood and nodded, "Okay, I get it."
Does it upset her that much?
"Lila, you"re so pretty," Haruka murmured against her ear. His hands ran through her legs, and he immediately noticed her reaction.
"You don"t want to?" Haruka asked again.
"That"s not it, um," Lila shyly played with her hair, "This kind of thing, I don"t know much about and Haruka you have experience in it right? I don"t want to let you down."
So that"s the problem? Haruka carefully brushed his fingers across her cheeks. "Let me show you shhh. It will be okay."
"Okay, I trust you."
Those words were painful for him to hear. But Haruka brushed of the uncomfortable feeling.
...
A heavily tattooed body on top of a softer one, hard muscles against smooth curves and warm. Haruka only intended to kiss her a bit and show her. He didn"t intend to do anything else, why would he? She"s underage; he isn"t a beast. But before he knew it, his hands were touching places where it shouldn"t.
"I...uhh...Harukkun."
"d.a.m.n, don"t call him now," Haruka thought. The girl calling his name did something to him, as
...
Inside the living room, he and Lila sat on the sofa opposite a man with black hair. Crud, he didn"t think her father would come home so suddenly. What an awkward situation to be in.
"Lila."
"Uh hmmm umm…"
The older man sighed, "Listen, I know I"m probably not the best person to lecture you on this. But you"re still young, you have to think carefully about your future," the man"s gaze flickered to him, "And you, you"re older than my daughter. You should be more sensible."
Coming from the man who is known for all the affairs he had back in the day? Then again, times have changed. Haruka knew how much this man loved his wife even though his wife isn"t around here anymore.
"If I think about it, will it be okay?" Lila asked.
Haruka"s eyes widened when he heard those words. Wait; what? Could it be that she is seriously thinking of...
"As your father, I"m very conflicted about this. But if you"ve thought it through, then go ahead."
"Go ahead," what sort of irresponsible father says things like that. Then again, this is the same irresponsible man who has done a great job at neglecting his daughter. For a person to go crazy just because their wife left, must mean they were really in love with each other. Though such things are foreign to him, to other people...
After a few more words, Lila"s father left them and the moment he did. Lila rested her head on his shoulders.
"Sorry, I got you in trouble."
"No, it"s okay," Lila trailed off, "Are you mad? You looked like you wanted to do it."
d.a.m.n, she saw right through him. "Sorry, I know you"re not used to it. But I..want to touch you."
Lila"s cheeks reddened. "Oh, uhh, right…"
Why does she seem so surprised?
"I thought you were going to tell me that since we"re kids, we ought to have restraint and all. But I guess not."
"I"m no saint," Haruka admitted. If he were an average person, then perhaps yes he could have done exactly that. But he isn"t, "I want to touch you all the time."
At that comment, Lila"s already red face seemed to explode. How cute, well he supposes this was normal for her. But even so, he likes seeing her like this.
"Ah-huh, um, let"s go back upstairs. I want to continue…"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes…"
..
"Lila, I"ll stop now."
"I"m so sorry…." Lila mumbled. The girls head was resting against his shoulder. Sweat covered his torso, and the girl"s clothes stuck to her body. "I...am really wanted to continue. But I don"t think I have the stamina."
"Yeah, that completely slipped his mind." Haruka almost forgets what kind of lifestyle Lila has lived this entire time.
"It"s fine."
"Is it really?" Lila trailed off, "Um, I mean your…"
"Ignore it."
"Why?"
"Don"t you need um help? I...um maybe.."
Haruka shook his head, "If you tried now, you"d explode." The fact that he even managed to get this far was already amazing enough.
"Che, it sounds like your bullying me."
"You"d be an easy target for bullying."
"Harukkun, I ...um…"
"Don"t worry about this," Haruka a.s.sured her. Sure he was disappointed that they stopped. But… they got this far. "Did you like it?"
Lila turned red, "Well um, it was very different."
Haruka chuckled. "Different?"
"I um, don"t know about this stuff Harukkun. But don"t couples do it all the time?"
"That"s right," he trailed off when he saw how sweaty she was. "You should probably take a bath."
"The water, it"s already warm…"
"Right," Haruka thought. She must have done so earlier. Haruka nodded and made sure she was carefully in his arms. Haruka carried her off to the bathroom. He placed her down on the tub and walked out.
After a few minutes though, Haruka returned. Lila was in the midst of her bath and seemed to be in a daze.
"H--Harukkun, um why are you coming inside?" Lila seemed fl.u.s.tered when she noticed his presence.
"I"ll take one too."
Lila grabbed hold of the towel and wrapped it around her body, "O--Okay then."
Che, did she really have to do that? Well, whatever. Haruka quickly discarded his clothing and entered the bathtub. It was relatively small for his liking, or maybe he was too large.
"Harukkun, this feels weird."
"Don"t worry about it. Are you okay? You"re still red."
"I"m okay, say I just thought of this. But how long will you be here for?"
"Hm?"
"Didn"t you come to this town for business? I was wondering when you were returning."
Oh, so she"s worried about that, he nuzzled his face against her cheeks. "Don"t worry; I"ll try to convince them for me to transfer here."
Lila"s eyes brightened at his words, "Then um, we can be together? We don"t have to do those long distant relations.h.i.+p things?"
