Eventful Night (10)
I can't go back to the dormitory.
I can't sleep tonight.
Theo wasn't the kind of guy who wouldn't understand what that meant.
In fact, he had already been thinking it would happen in the near future.
Even though hypnosis had been involved, they had already seen each other naked multiple times in the bathhouse. And lately Faye had been openly showing just how much she liked him.
As a healthy adult male, it was only natural to assume their bodies would eventually intertwine.
But... he hadn't expected her to be this aggressive about it.
When a cute puppy is wagging its tail in front of you, you approach to pet it—only for the puppy to suddenly leap up and start petting you with its front paws. Of course you'd be startled.
But once the initial shock passed, you'd pull the puppy into your arms and pet it right back.
That's exactly how Theo felt.
When Faye suddenly declared they were going to burn the night away, he had flinched. But soon his heart was pounding with anticipation.
It felt like it was beating even harder than the first time they'd had sex.
The first time had felt more like being swept up in the situation, after all.
It had been less about fluttering emotions and more about a dense, sticky physical connection.
It wasn't the kind of moment where you enjoyed a romantic dinner in an atmospheric restaurant with your lover and looked forward to what came next.
That was why this moment hit him so much harder.
Theo's eating pace quickened slightly.
So did Faye's.
......
But the long-awaited time they had both been anticipating didn't come easily.
- Knock knock.
"Your ordered dishes have arrived."
"What? Again?"
"There are still three plates left. The food's already being prepared, so you can't cancel the order now even if you wanted to."
"No, that's not what I... Yes. Thank you."
Theo accepted the newly delivered dishes with a dazed expression.
This was already the third set he'd received like this. The number of dishes he'd already eaten was nothing small either.
And with three more plates still coming, that meant a total of six bowls.
Theo neatly took the dishes from the server and set them on the table. He'd thought it was quite a large table, but there was already no space left. He had to push the empty plates aside.
"Faye. Why did you order so much? There's no way we can eat all this."
Faye did eat more than the average woman. It wasn't once or twice that he'd wondered where all that food went in such a small body.
But this was still way too much.
"I'll eat it all. Just not right now."
Faye pulled a magic tool from her bag and covered the freshly served dishes.
It was a tool that preserved both temperature and freshness. Nobles often used it when meals tended to drag on for long periods.
"What? Are you taking it to go?"
"No! Hehe. You'll find out soon enough."
After preserving the food with the magic tool, Faye stood up from her seat.
Then she grabbed the hem of her dress...
In one smooth motion, she pulled it off.
It must have been designed to be easy to remove. Faye's outfit slipped right off the moment she lifted the hem.
In an instant, she was standing there in nothing but her underwear.
"Uh."
Theo let out a dumb sound. For a moment, he was completely captivated by Faye.
He'd already seen her naked several times, so getting flustered over underwear seemed ridiculous. But the way Faye adorned her body with those small scraps of fabric gave her a completely different charm than when she was fully bare.
It was the difference between blatant arousal and subtle sexiness.
The next moment, he realized this wasn't the time to just stare blankly and hurriedly began stripping off his own clothes.
Now in their underwear, Theo and Faye faced each other.
Theo hesitated, unsure what to say.
Faye wasn't hesitating at all. Today's Faye was like a runaway carriage with no driver and no brakes—smashing through everything in her path.
"Theo!"
Faye pounced on him. She put her full weight behind it and simply slammed into him.
They tumbled onto the bed in a tangled heap. Fortunately the bed held strong and didn't break.
Faye climbed on top of Theo and looked down at him.
Her eyes, staring intently from so close, were filled with both lust and affection. It was proof that Faye's love wasn't one-sided.
Inside Faye, countless emotions bubbled up like boiling foam.
Someone might have been able to name each of those feelings one by one. Someone else might have turned them into a beautiful literary masterpiece.
But in the end, one truth ran through all of them.
Faye spoke that truth with complete honesty.
"I like you."
It was pure heart, without any additions or conditions.

"Let's have sex!"
...It might have been even more touching if she hadn't added anything at all.
Still, the ridiculous line helped break the tension. Theo, who had been slightly overwhelmed by her straightforward feelings, managed to regain his usual composure.
He smiled gently and accepted Faye's confession.
"Yeah. I like you too."
"Yahoo!"
Faye expressed her overflowing heart through action.
She lowered her face and pressed her lips to his.
Isn't the guy usually supposed to take the lead in this kind of thing?
The thought flashed through Theo's mind for a split second... but he quickly decided it didn't matter.
What other people did was meaningless.
Right now, it was just Theo and Faye.
Their kiss went on for a long time.
The strength gradually left Faye's arms as she leaned down to kiss him.
As her body descended, her chest, stomach, and legs slowly pressed against him.
Their tongues tangled together. The wet, sticky sound of mixing saliva filled their heads.
With their chests pressed so tightly together, the beating of their hearts felt especially loud. Even though Faye was acting boldly, he could feel how nervous she actually was.
Their tongues, entwined like thick slugs mating, finally parted.
Faye looked incredibly reluctant to stop, but she didn't kiss him again.
The hard presence she'd been feeling against her stomach for a while now was strongly demanding they move on to the next stage.
Theo reached out and began removing Faye's underwear.
Because their bodies were pressed so closely together, even the simple act of taking off underwear wasn't easy.
But that was fine.
Even if he fumbled while removing it, even if he touched the wrong spot, every single touch felt like happiness.
While Theo struggled in an awkward position to remove her bra, Faye had already pulled down his underwear and was gently stroking his cock.
It was the same cock she'd touched many times in the bathhouse and even made cum.
Yet today it felt even more lovable than before.
Maybe it was because they were lovers now, unlike the time they'd simply ended up bathing together after renting the bath. He didn't know the exact reason, but it felt good, and that was enough.
Faye's fingers, still slightly awkward in their movements, stroked along Theo's cock.
Her small, slender fingers felt cool.
This wasn't the curious fiddling from the bathhouse, when she'd treated it like an interesting toy. These movements were meant to please him, now that she properly recognized it as a man's erogenous zone.
Theo enjoyed the pleasant sensations coming from his lower body. After slowly working his hands, he finally succeeded in fully undressing Faye.
Faye gently lifted her body.
As their closely pressed bodies separated, things that had been too close to see before finally came into view.
Theo's eyes traced over Faye's naked form.
Her modest breasts that looked slightly more voluminous thanks to gravity. Her nicely toned abs. The Y-zone created by her groin and thighs.
Faye could feel Theo's gaze on her most private parts. She was showing him on purpose.
It felt different from the casual nudity of their mixed bathing. Bathing with clothes on would be strange, so being naked was natural. And because it was natural, it hadn't sparked any special feelings. (Though Luna's impressions under the same hypnosis had been slightly different.)
In other words, this was Faye's first time deliberately showing her body to create a lewd atmosphere.
For Theo, on the other hand, Faye's naked body was more familiar. Of course, that was when comparing nudity to underwear. The most familiar sight was naturally when she was fully clothed.
Theo, who had been tense in this brand-new situation of "sex with a lover"—something he couldn't have imagined even half a year ago—felt his nerves ease at the sight of the familiar female body before him.
The body was honest. The little Theo down below perfectly reflected his main body's mental state.
"Whoa! It's gotten even bigger!"
Faye, who gripped and swung hard, thick objects every day—in other words, sword handles—couldn't possibly miss the change happening in her hand.
To think he was getting excited just from looking at her body. Faye beamed with joy.
In return, she stroked his cock with more strength.
With more distance between their bodies, the position became much more comfortable. Faye served her lover without any hesitation.
While looking directly into Theo's eyes.
"Um. Faye?"
"What? Oh. Did it hurt? Should I be gentler?"
"No, it's just... it's a little overwhelming when you stare like that."
Faye kept smiling brightly as she made eye contact with Theo, her hand working diligently to stroke him off.
Whenever his expression reacted even slightly, she took it as a sign that spot felt good and adjusted her movements accordingly.
For Theo, it was a strangely subtle feeling.
It felt good that she was serving him with such sincerity, and his body felt incredibly good too.
But it was also embarrassing.
"Ehhh. Is that so?"
Faye found it hard to understand Theo.
Her mindset was simple: If it feels good, then it's good. Isn't sex supposed to feel good?
Still, if Theo felt uncomfortable, she wasn't going to force it.
She obediently moved downward...
And took Theo's cock into her mouth.
