When I brought my childhood friend back home after a long time, she suddenly started undressing and said, "I want you to hold me..." - Chapter 15
“… Hey, hurry up!”
“Okay.”
Aoi was sitting alone at the footbath while I was using the restroom at the convenience store. When I came out while wiping my hands, she noticed me and tapped on the seat beside her, asking me to sit next to her.
“… It’s surprisingly big.”
“What do you mean by it?”
“There’s no deeper meaning to it, don’t worry.”
“I see.”
Keeping the silly conversation aside I pulled my trousers and dipped my feet in the footbath, while doing so I noticed that the ongoing season was neither cold nor hot, but it was definitely not good to be barefoot normally outside.
“Phew…..”
After soaking my feet in the water, I sat down beside Aoi. The hot weather gradually enveloped both feet. The stimulation gradually turned into a pleasant one, and I couldn’t help but let out an involuntary exhale.
I felt the fatigue was flowing out from my legs as if the air was escaping from the tip of my foot.
Since I entered the university I have not been particularly physically active, but it seems that the fatigue has been accumulating.
“How does that feel?”
“Oh… It surely feels good.”
“And the view from here is also pleasant.”
“Yeah, The bathtubs at home are different and the footbath’s are too comfortable… and even Aoi also has a light expression on her face.
“I wonder~”
Forgetting all of our worries we soaked our legs in the footbath and relaxingly enjoyed the amiable surroundings with the sound of birds chirping which was soothing to our ears our mind felt at peace.
“Phew~~”
Aoi crossed her legs as she exhaled while getting more comfortable.
I caught a glimpse of her white milky thighs from my eyes through her skirt, which I haven’t seen much of. I couldn’t help but take in the full alluring view. The footbath had indeed made my head a little flustered, but I knew it was a bad idea to stare too much, so I turned my gaze away with the little reason I had left.
‘… It’s too erotic, even though I remember all of it clearly, it’s still embarrassing.’
“What’s wrong?”
“–No, it’s nothing.”
“If that’s the case, then it’s fine…”
I feel sorry for my childhood friend who had a questioning look on her face, but forgive me this time. I am still fighting hard, and I haven’t gotten past the battle. I want you to praise me later for that.
Anyway, I don’t want to think about such sinister things right now. Let’s enjoy the footbath without thinking about anything else.
_____________________________________
We enjoyed our peaceful time without conversing between us. I felt like these types of breaks sometimes were necessary to release the physical and mental fatigue we accumulate from our everyday lives and enjoy the delightful natural environment.
After a few minutes of silence, Aoi suddenly asked me,
“I wonder if this place has any effects or benefits?”
“Efficacy huh… Yeah, there are some benefits written on a sign board behind us.”
When I told her, Aoi stood up and moved to the opposite side where the signboard was located.
“Let’s see…”
After sometime watching she couldn’t understand the contents and asked,
“How do we read it?”
After saying that she slumped down to her knees on the spot and her skirt rose because of the air beneath. She glared at the sign and muttered some of the words out aloud, and I who saw that scene awkwardly averted my gaze from her.
The reason is that I caught a faint glimpse of Aoi’s underpants.
Aoi Takanashi, a childhood friend of mine, is somehow defenseless in front of me, and she doesn’t think much about it anyway.
Looking back to where she was, I noticed that half of her bare back was in sight while some part of her skirt was also visible clearly. Looking around I saw if someone else might not be looking at her, and I was relieved after finding out that there was no one else like that.
Moreover the color…
‘Pink laced underwear with flowery patterns… Is she planning to test my sanity? Or is she inviting me to ravage her?!’
It was to that extent where I inadvertently made certain assumptions. I don’t even know what to say. It’s a hot spring hotel with mixed bathing, and I can even see her pants in the footbath… Moreover, we’re in the same room.
… Maybe that’s what she wants.
I involuntarily thought of a certain thing, but… I shook my head to get them out of my mind.
‘It’s not good to think about it too much. We are not dating and are not in that type of relationship either. But if either one of us confesses, we might take that step as well this time properly… but let’s calm down for now.’
Organize and rethink.
I’ve decided that I will never do something like that again, so I should set my sights firmly on the higher ground.
“–Hmm, what’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing, you don’t have to worry about me.”
Aoi was also staring at me curiously it looked like she had finished reading all of the contents from the sign board.
“So, what did you think? What does it look like? Any benefits or effects?”
“Yeah, it does look good and it’s stated that it is also good for the skin.”
“That looks rather normal.”
“It’s just a footbath after all.”
“I see.”
‘Phew… it would be risky if I was found out staring at her.’
“Oh, but there’s another thing as well.”
“More? What is it?”
I tilted my head as curiosity was coursing through my mind, I waited for the answer but seeing my intent gaze she blushed profusely.
“…I-If we enter as a man and a woman, there are high chances that we might date each other.”
“I’m not sure if that’s true…”
“… Haha, yeah it does look like that.”
She said embarrassedly while scratching her cheeks.
Thinking about it apparently, Aoi is going to bring it to the finish on this trip.
