"Make sure you go to school, okay?"

"I know, I know,"

"And make sure you go to club practice or Rin is going to get mad,"

"Oh my god, Makoto. I know already, just go to class," Sousuke said, sighing with annoyance.

"Alright," The guy who Sousuke calls Makoto said with a gentle smile on his face, satisfied with Sousuke's obedience. "And you there, I forgot to ask but what's your name?" he asked, as he glanced from Sousuke's shoulders with ease as his height was almost the same as his.

"Ah, it's Aikawa. Aikawa Yoriko," I replied politely.

"Have you-" Sousuke stepped in before Makoto could finish his sentence.

"Makoto," He started. "I'm sure the teacher is waiting for you,"

Makoto tilted his head the side, cocking a brow at him as if he was questioning him of his actions. "Sousuke-kun?" Makoto said but his next sentence showed that he gave up on what he was about to say and said, "Yeah, I'll be going then. Remember to go to school,"

"I know, how many times do you need me to confirm this with you?" he sighed again. Makoto only gave him an apologetic smile, bid goodbye and was ready to turn away but was stopped by Sousuke. "Oh, and you know, don't talk about any of this to Rin,"

"Yeah, don't worry. I won't," and patted him gently on his shoulder then he stepped out of the door and closed it back.

Still seated on the bed, I squirmed a little in my seat. That, just now, was a waste. Wait, no, I should not have thought about continuing what we were doing before Makoto came in. Like, come on me, we just met. It was wrong to begin with. Doing things like making out with a stranger on the first day in my new school, way to go, me.

As I reflected about it in my mind, I could not help but imagine what it would be like if we continued. I then regretted it, deeply.

"Aikawa,"

"H-huh?! Ah, Yamazaki-kun,"

"What's wrong? Your face is redder than before, I noticed that just now and thought it was normal after we-" he broke off from there and cleared his throat. "Are you actually having a fever?" he asked as he shortened the distance between us and placed the back of his hand on my forehead.

I only knew at that time that a human heart could actually beat that fast. It felt like it could explode at any moment. I felt the blood in my body rush to my face. Aware of how hard I was blushing then, I lowered my head immediately. I thought if I did not look at him, it would be much better.

However, I was naïve.

"Is it that bad?" he asked again, his body was inching closer to mine again as he tried to take a good look at me. He sounded worried. I was really happy that he was worried about me, and especially happy that the space between us was finally not there but this was too much for me to handle.

"Ya-Yamazaki-kun," I tried my hardest to say his name and it ended up as a whisper. I guess that was the best I could do in that situation.

"Hmm?" he made a sound with his lips in the same volume as I. His hand slid down from my forehead to slowly caress my cheek with his fingers. It somehow felt like he did it unconsciously. I did not hate or dislike it, of course. In fact, I liked how he was touching me? I slapped myself hard in my mind, reminding myself to not get ahead of myself.

"I'm fine," I finally managed to say. "I was just imagining what would happen if we continued-"

Realising what I was about to say, I slapped both hands onto my mouth to stop myself from continuing my sentence. Why am I always embarrassing myself? I thought to myself as I cried internally in embarrassment. "I'm sorry, please forget what I said," I quickly apologised. Now he would be totally weirded out. I covered my face with my hands, not wanting to see his disgusted face towards me. "I'm so sorry!"

There was only silence after what I said. This was making me nervous, nerve wrecked. I brought up my courage to move my hand to the side to see what happened and I got to see him just in time as he moved closer. He placed his hands on the bed, each on one of my sides where I was seated.

"I would like to know, too," he said, looking me into the eye again, capturing me, like I was some sort of prey, his prey. "What did you think we would have done?"

I let out the breath that I was holding in all this while. "That you would touch me?"

"Where?"

I paused for a while, startled by the sudden question that I was not prepared for. "My cheeks, maybe?"

He let out a chuckle. How was this even possible? To have such a charming man exist on Earth, this was clearly illegal.

"Like this?" he said as he cupped my right cheek, stroking it with his thumb.

I could only nod.

"Then? What did I do next?" he whispered. This naughty living being.

I swallowed the lump in my throat. "You slowly moved further down,"

He hummed. "Down?" Moving his hand down to my throat, he poked at the hickey he left on me just now.

"Further. Down," I gulped. Since when had I been this brave? I had no idea. I did not even know who I was anymore.

"Here?" he asked as he reached my waist. I shook my head, mouthing a "down" to him.

He obeyed and moved his hand slowly down to my thigh, massaging it as he did. "You're naughtier than I thought you were, Aikawa,"

"I don't really want to hear that from you right now," I replied, trying to supress a moan from escaping my mouth.

People were passing by the infirmary room now and anyone could come in at any minute, especially if there were 'weird' sounds heard from outside the room. Sousuke did not seem like he would stop at all and I did not think I could hold my moans in anymore.

I thought of clasping my mouth with my hands but they would not work under my instructions, it was like they were not mine in the first place as they grasped onto Sousuke's shirt.

"I don't think I can-" I started and he shut me up with his lips.
