After we graduated, we can’t see each other daily like in the past.
Since Lian hired me, we get to work together on Saturdays, Sundays, and other days that are convenient. I’m also worried about Marie and the kids, so I plan on stopping by once or twice a week. If the timing is good, Lian and I can see each other there.
But like I mentioned before, we won’t be able to meet every day anymore.
Still, it doesn’t mean that we won’t meet.
So I suggest a countermeasure. “You know, if you want to visit, you can just come. I won’t mind if it’s you. Also, there’s a lot of vacant rooms at Cheddar-san’s place. If you want to borrow a room, they’d probably let you stay in one if you ask.”
“Eh? Really?”
We’re talking about the Cheddars after all. I’m sure they will gladly lend a room to Lian. Cheddar’s wife also said that she hates having empty rooms.
“Yeah. I can go and see you whenever I want to meet you as well. Since you hired me, that wouldn’t be strange, right?”
Lian widens his eyes as if he just realized it, and finally breaks into a slight smile.
“You’re right…”
“Yes. Also, I will be delivering milk from Cheddar’s Ranch to your mansion’s kitchen every morning.”
“S-seriously?”
“Yeah. You didn’t know? I’m going to help Cheddar-san with deliveries from now on. If you get up early, we will also be able to meet then.”
“I-I see… So you will come every morning to the mansion…”
Lian’s was originally pale in anxiousness, but now gradually reddens.
What a relief.
He finally managed to compose himself a bit.
He doesn’t resist as I loosely pull at his wrist, allowing me to bring him into my arms.
If I hug him tight, he’ll most likely pull away. So I gently place my hands on his lower back
“If they can’t lend you a room… You can use my room as you like, just like in the church. “You can just stay there if you want to.”
Lian flushes red as a tomato.
“N-no way.”
“Why?”
“Because you’ll do something… weird.”
“Something weird?”
Lian sulks. The redness of his face doesn’t fade, and he averts his eyes without answering my question.
His nape that is tinged red is a lovely sight. So much so that I have the urge to bite it.
I usually can’t control my desires. I know that. But I can only keep enduring. Thankfully, I’ve been too busy before to entertain such thoughts.
…Would Lian let me touch him even just a little?
The moment I bring my face closer to his neck, his body jolts.
There’s a light fragrance emanating from Lian’s skin.
Unable to endure anymore, I nip his neck lightly with my lips. Lian trembles, but doesn’t immediately try to jump back and escape, as is often the case.
He obediently stays in my embrace.
I take his action to mean that I can touch him a little more, so I press a kiss on his cheek.
