The whole class smelled of sweat because of the guys who played soccer.

The teachers hated it, too.

I told them to turn off the air conditioner and open the window, but they ignored me. “It’s hot,” “I have to study.”

There were many reasons, too.

Eventually, I blocked my nose and solved the questions.

I slightly shifted my gaze to the side, but Alan have yet ti return.

Creeaak-

Regardless of my worries, Alan entered the classroom calmly soon after.

I could barely keep the word from slipping out.

I focused on the problem as if nothing had happened.

No. Nothing happened.

Really.

It’s not because I didn’t kiss him.

Nothing happened.

“Oh, I really don’t have any clothes to change into…”

I heard a grumbling sound from behind. Kenta was almost completely naked.

He was merely dressed in shorts.

It was because Alan poured water on him at the drinking fountain.

His wet clothes were being dried on the locker in the back.

The constantly muttering mouth became even busier.

He murmured to Alan who returned to his seat as though he expected him to pay attention.

The atmosphere was awkward.

Returning to his seat, Alan took out the chair.

I thought he would talk to me, but he leaned back in his chair and turned his head back.

“Kenta.”

Kenta, who was grumbling, replied sternly.

“What.”

I also slightly raised my upper body and turned my head.

Well Alan didn’t even turn his head.

One arm rested on the chair’s backrest, while the other rested on my desk, directly facing Kenta.

I kept looking at Alan, but he only spoke to Kenta and avoided making eye contact with me.

Maybe it’s because I didn’t kiss him?

So, did Alan switch his focus from me to Kenta?

Is it because Kenta looks so sexy when he’s hot and sweaty?

I kept returning my gaze to the two of them.

Without realizing it, the corners of my lips drooped.

Alan tilted his head with an expression that was not different from usual.

“Let’s talk later.”

“Huh?”

Kenta’s complexion did not improve.

I got worse.

I somehow glanced at  Alan to make eye contact with him, but he never looked at me.

Alan lowered his voice once more as if affirming.

“Let’s talk during dinner time. Got it?”

“…”

Kenta then shut his mouth.
