Chapter 74: Calm Before the Stor—Contract Discussion

"Yeah, yeah." I lifted my head back up and nodded. "Please stay with me as much as you can." I asked as I looked up at Akira.

Akira eyes widened a bit, and his cheeks turned slightly pink. A smirk unconsciously formed on my lips.

"Because of Yuu?" I reminded him and chuckled while shaking my head as we moved forward. "I need at least one person around me at all times. I won't force you to stay with me when I'm with Tatsuya or Ryuu. I know how hard it can be to stay around those two." I glanced back at him.

"R-Right. Yeah." Akira's blush worsened from what I assumed to be embarrassment. I laughed. "W-What!?"

"My, my, I think this is the first time I've seen a flustered Akira." I prodded, relishing in being the teaser for once. "Just what were you thinking?"

"Shut up." Akira grinned to hide his embarrassment as he brought my head down and messed my hair up.

"Hey! Stop it!" I laughed.
