The Case of Me, a Guy With Zero Dating Experience, Getting Mistaken for a Stalker by the Angel I Fell for at First Sight, Only to End Up Living Together With Her in a Harem Share House With a 1:9 Gender Ratio - Chapter 43: Reason vs. Instinct

Chapter 43: Reason vs. Instinct

In the bathroom of the love hotel, Yuuki and Miku were bathing together.

Miku sat facing away, leaning against Yuuki, their expressions hidden from each other.

Having confessed her love to Yuuki, Miku was so nervous her heart felt like it might burst.

(I said it, I finally said it. What will Yuuki-san say…?)

Yuuki, confessed to by Miku, was unsure how to respond.

(What do I do? Miku said she likes me. I kinda thought she might…

But how do I answer? I can’t answer right now…)

Too aware of each other, their conversation stalled, and an awkward silence fell.

Unable to bear it, Yuuki hurriedly changed the topic.

“W-Well, I never thought I’d reunite with you at the share house…”

“Y-Yeah…

When it happened, I thought it was totally fate.

Reuniting at a share house is a miracle.”

“That’s why you picked that movie, right…?”

“Yup, you got it, Yuuki-san.

Even back then, I was giving off ‘I love you’ vibes, but…”

“I definitely noticed that.”

“You’re kinda oblivious, so I thought you might not.”

“Huh, am I that oblivious?”

Miku felt something odd near her hips and realized it was Yuuki’s arousal.

“Um… something’s been poking my butt for a while…”

“…T-That’s… a physiological reaction, can’t help it!”

Miku found Yuuki’s panic amusing, easing her tension.

“Haha… a physiological reaction.

If it’s okay with me, I can help calm it down.”

“N-No, that’s definitely a bad idea.”

“I think I’ll get out now.”

Miku grabbed the tub’s edge, stood, and stepped out.

“I-I’ll get out too.”

Yuuki, covering himself, hurriedly left the tub.

“Yuuki-san, I’ll wash your body.”

“N-No, I can wash myself.”

“No way… Sit there…”

Urged by Miku, Yuuki reluctantly sat on the bath stool.

“I’ll start with your back.”

Miku lathered a towel with body soap and began scrubbing Yuuki’s body with a goshigoshi sound.

“When you carried me, I thought… your back’s so broad…

And you’re surprisingly muscular and strong…”

“Really? You didn’t know…

I did karate for six years starting in middle school.

I’m a black belt, you know…”

“Huh, you did karate?

No wonder you can be a bodyguard…”

At that moment, the bath towel around Miku slipped off.

“Oh, my towel fell.

It’s in the way, don’t need it.”

Hearing this, Yuuki tensed.

(Yuuki, turn around, you can see Miku’s naked body!)

(No, you absolutely can’t look. Miku’s a precious childhood friend!)

Unaware of the battle between reason and instinct in Yuuki’s mind, Miku continued.

Miku carefully washed Yuuki’s body.

Was it his imagination, or did something soft occasionally brush his back?

“So? My breasts are soft, right?”

“M-Miku, stop teasing.”

“I’m not teasing. I’m serious today…”

Miku pressed her body closer to Yuuki’s back.

“…I’ll wash your front too.”

Reaching around, Miku gently washed his neck, chest, and stomach.

Her large breasts pressed against his back.

“Tch, I’ll wash below there myself.”

Yuuki’s lower body was so tense it couldn’t handle more stimulation.

“You don’t have to be shy…”

Miku tried to wash lower, but Yuuki snatched the towel and washed himself.

“Ugh, I said I’d wash it…”

Yuuki quickly washed, rinsed with the shower, and dried off.

“I-I’m getting out first.”

As Yuuki stood to leave, Miku blocked his path.

“Wait, is my body that unattractive…?

Look closely…”

Seeing Miku’s body directly for the first time, Yuuki swallowed hard at its beauty.

Her idol-like face, glossy hair twirled into a bun, slender nape, delicate shoulders.

Firm E-cup breasts, a cinched waist, beautiful hips.

A faint patch at her center, long slender legs, and taut, healthy skin.

Slim yet curvy where it mattered, perfectly balanced.

“Miku, y-you’re really beautiful…”

Miku’s youthful, fresh body exuded a charm distinct from Asuna’s.

“I love you, Yuuki-san…

I love you so much I can’t sleep at night…

I’ll give you my first time…

So… make me your girlfriend…”

Faced with Miku’s direct confession, Yuuki resolved to share his honest feelings.

“Thank you for saying you love me, Miku… I’m really happy…

But I still don’t fully understand my feelings…

So, sorry… I can’t date you.

I’m sorry for such a vague answer…”

“Why… Why not?

Because you like Sakura-chan…?”

“…I definitely have feelings for her…

But I also definitely have feelings for you, Miku…

So I can’t decide yet…”

“If you make me your girlfriend, you can do whatever you want with this body…

Don’t you want to be with me?”

“I do, of course I do.

Any guy would want to be with a girl as attractive as you…”

“Then just do it…

Look, this part’s being honest…”

Miku pointed to Yuuki’s visibly aroused lower body.

Facing the alluring, naked Miku, Yuuki summoned all his reason to restrain himself.

“You’re right…

Your body’s so attractive, it’s making mine react…

I know you’re serious…

But if I let myself go with these feelings, it might ruin our relationship so far…

And I’d regret that…

So my heart won’t change. Really, I’m sorry…”
