𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟓𝟎: 𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐝
Night fell, and I headed to Cid’s room with a tea set. Well, it’s not really heading anywhere since his room is right next to mine.
– Knock, knock.
“. . .”
– Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock.
“. . .”
He must be engrossed in his grimoire.
Making that judgment, I opened the door without permission and entered his room.
As expected, he didn’t notice me entering and was sitting at his desk with his back turned towards me.
He couldn’t be more defenseless.
I placed the tea set on the table and stealthily approached him from behind.
“Who’s there?”
“Huh?!”
I pressed hard on the pressure point on the back of his neck which causes intense pain. It’s Onii-sama’s secret technique, a one-hit kill move.
Reacting to the pressure point, Cid stood up reflexively and casted a healing spell on the back of his neck. It must have been quite painful.
“That’s terrible! You’re just reading books without noticing me! I’m hurt!”
Seeing me pretending to cry, Cid half-smiled.
“But I’m the one who got hurt!? Ethan-sama really taught you this dangerous technique.”
“Correct. Now, let’s have some tea. If you keep reading books all the time, your body will get messed up.”
Standing in front of the tea set, I removed the cloth cover that was keeping the pot warm, and a sweet aroma gently wafted up. Today, I brewed apple tea.
Since it was supervised by the maid, I can trust the taste. As I was about to pour it into a cup, Cid silently stood up and silently embraced me from behind.
“Hey. . .?! It’s spilling!”
“Don’t worry~ Vi-sama, you can handle it.”
He chuckled and kissed my nape on purpose to unsettle me.
Then he buried his face in my hair and took a deep breath while rubbing his cheek against it.
“Ah~ I’m healed by Vi-sama’s scent.”
That’s quite a sexual harassment remark.
I remained frozen, holding the pot in my right hand, unable to move a muscle.
“No, let go.”
“No, I don’t feel the need to.”
“I’m making tea?! There’s nothing but necessity!!”
“Really?”
His wrapped arm tightened even more.
He doesn’t seem to have any intention of letting go.
My heart was pounding, and Cid must definitely feel it too.
The hand holding the pot started trembling uncontrollably.
The room fell silent.
I felt his warmth and weight.
His breath against my ear was so soothing and regular――
Huh?
“. . .Cid?”
No response.
I thought so, but when I cautiously turn my face to the side, his eyelids were completely closed.
He’s sleeping.
He was sleeping while standing!
“Hey!”
I quickly put the pot back on the table.
Infusing my arm with magic, I peel him off and this time he just went limp and leaned his entire body onto me.
“Ughhh!!”
I carried him on my back and dragged him to the bedroom.
I thought about giving him a princess carry, but our height difference doesn’t allow for it.
I threw him onto the bed, and it was clear that he was fast asleep lying on his back.
He must have been reading his grimoire until he got so sleepy.
I couldn’t even say anything out of exasperation.
“What’s going on, really.”
As I looked at his peacefully sleeping face, I couldn’t help but find myself thinking he’s a little cute, which disgusted me.
Even when I poked his cheek with my finger, he didn’t wake up. He’s too cute. . .!
His mouth was slightly open.
“Cid~?”
I tried lifting his bangs, stroking his cheek, tracing his eyebrows with my finger. I could play with him endlessly!
He rolled onto his back and scratched his stomach with his left hand, even that gesture was cute in an old man-like way. I thought it was quite poisonous to find this appearance cute.
And his abs were visible through the gap in his flipped-up shirt.
Horseback riding really works the abs, huh?
Even though I was just sitting sideways, my stomach had become quite toned since leaving Roselia.
When I poked Cid’s stomach with my index finger, I was surprised by how hard it was.
“Mmm.”
Cid scratched his stomach again, and then rolled over and lied face down.
“Sigh. . .”
I could watch him for hours. He’s so cute.
I lied down on the bed as well and enjoyed watching Cid.
I gently held his limp hand and snuggled up to him, savoring the happiness.
It made me incredibly happy when he unconsciously squeezed my hand back.
“I came here to talk, whether we’re going to Nice or staying here.”
I guess I can talk to him about it tomorrow.
I covered Cid and myself with a blanket and dimed the lamp to the lowest setting, then fell asleep just like that.
