Stealing Heroine: Honestly, I never thought this far [Smut Warning!]

Ch 17 – 29 April, The End of Agreement 01

Kouta opened his eyes, and he was still in Eriri's embrace. It looked like, Kouta was the first one to wake up. Her innocent face took his breath away. It was really different from the last face she had before sleeping. He started to move his face forward without even realizing it. Before he kissed her forehead, surprisingly, Eriri was smiling warmly.

When Eriri opened her eyes and saw Kouta staring at her, she immediately realized what was happening. She pulled her body away from Kouta while pulling the blanket with her, trying her best to cover her body.

"You liar!" Eriri screamed while half-crying.

"Well, I'm sorry for kissing you without your permission." Kouta apologized lightly to Eriri. Then again, he doesn't seem to feel guilty at all, and it kind of made Eriri a bit mad.

"Just it—" Eriri retorted with angry shivers.

"Well, I do it, since you agree to it." Kouta replied with a chuckle.

Eriri with her face turning red burned a shy scarlet replied, "Na—that's—"

"Oh, well—But, that's true, I broke our agreement, so you leave today—but, at the very least, eat breakfast and take a bath before you leave."

"Ah, yeah. I will do that." Eriri, who didn't expect that Kouta would obediently let her go since he usually told her back, agreed to his word with a sigh of relief. Since Kouta told her that she would sleep over— Eriri had already prepared her clothes to change.

So when Eriri took a bath, Kouta prepared breakfast. Well, he thought to make something extravagant, but he didn't know what she actually liked, so in the end, he just made a simple Japanese breakfast. He quickly prepared a rice bowl, miso soup, some vegetables, and, of course, fish.

Kouta felt like his skills improved after he completed those activities and gained a better understanding of them. Just like cooking, he felt like his cutting became faster and tidier—different from the last time he cooked, this time it felt like he cut the vegetables and tofu more evenly than before. He could even slice those vegetables and tofu as thin as paper.

No wonder, that every time Kouta played with Eriri's body, he felt like he could understand it. After many times, lick and playing her body—Kouta already know her erogenous place—her weak point and of course her reaction before she will be cumming.

Kouta knows so much about her that he could play her like it was yesterday.

"Ah, it's delicious!" Eriri couldn't help but compliment Kouta's cooking, and she was surprised at how quickly he improved his cooking in such a short period of time. As a typical-rich girl in the manga, Eriri couldn't cook, but at the same time, her mouth palette was quite rich. That's why she could easily see how Kouta's food tasted better each day.

"Ah, thanks—maybe you want to learn it from me?" Kouta honestly said that to Eriri, who looked at him with an irritated look as she felt he rubbed her pride.

"Huh—no, thanks—I'm betting if you don't have anything in the bottom, you might be popular in a boy's eye," Eriri replied, trying to rub Kouta's as well.

"Well, I don't think there is any good thing if my thing is gone—you will miss it after all."

"What—there's no way—I miss such a gross thing!"

"Really—I wonder."

"It's not like we will do such a thing again."

"Hm—Yeah. It's really too bad."

Eriri found how docile Kouta was this morning quite disturbing. Usually, he always finds some way to make the situation to his advantage, but this morning he didn't actually do that and just accepted that he had broken the agreement. Maybe there was a reason for it.

"Oh, well—Your parents will be back from vacation soon, right? So I don't think you'll have such free time to do that—" Eriri said, thinking of one of the reasons Kouta might have let her go so easily.

"Hm—Are you perhaps didn't know?"

"What!?"

"I live alone."

"Eh—really?"

"Yeah, my family got into an accident two years ago, and only I survived, because at that time, I didn't go with them." Kouta told Eriri, that he lived alone—at that time, his father got a job as a photographer in wild, live Africa. It was something that his father loved—how beautiful nature was and stuff like that. And his mother loved his father because of those elements. A one-month trip to Africa, on the other hand, became a permanent farewell.

It was so unreal that Kouta couldn't believe it for months—he actually still sometimes waits for them to come and tell him they're just joking—until he finally accepted they're gone forever.

"Ah—Sorry—that I said something inappropriate," Eriri responded while looking down, as she felt guilty.

"You don't have to—They went two years ago, and I'm already let them go." Ryo said his thoughts honestly, and that was something difficult for Eriri to hear, as Kouta could see her emotion. She seemed saddened after learning of Kouta's sad circumstances.

Seeing Eriri's raw emotion—tickled Kouta's emotions. He reflexively reached for her head and patted it gently. "Really—why the sad face? Ain't that ruining your good looks."

Even though, Kouta did something really bad to her to make her think that she felt sorry for him, Kouta knew that Eriri was actually a very kind and loving girl. as expected coming from a person bearing the title of heroine. It makes Kouta wonder if all the heroine in this world are this kind and lovable.

Sometimes in those memories, there was many protagonist and heroine that kind, and in much shōnen they didn't kill their enemies with the power to talk no jutsu.

Which Kouta thought he could take advantage of those kindnesses?

"Hah—Who—who is sad—" Eriri replied a bit too late.

"That's why I know I already broke our agreement, but can I ask something for the last time?" Kouta asked Eriri directly while staring at her with such a serious face.

"Eh—what!"

"How about we go on a date together, since this may be my last chance to get a date with you?"

When she heard that, Eriri thought to reject it, but at the same time, she found Kouta a bit scary, and if she rejected him—she didn't know what he was going to do. Even though he always kept his promises, she was aware that he could also break them.

"Fine—but this is the last time. After this—We're just coworkers in the manga and dating sims project." Eriri answered back after she thought about it for a long time.

"Really—thanks."

Eriri perspective

"Huh—why am I wearing something like this?" Eriri sighed deeply. She followed what Kouta asked her to do as he gave him a white dress piece and a well-cared-for straw hat.

"It's just a disguise. You don't want people to find out we're going together, right?"

"Well—that's true."

Not only did Eriri look different in a white dress and straw hat, but she also let her hair down instead of wearing it in the usual twin tails, giving her a different vibe than usual.

"Okay, so where are we going?"

"Well, how about the bookstore?"

"Huh–Bookstore?"

"Yeah, I want to buy some manga that you recommended—since it may be a good reference for me to write other chapters." Kouta replied quite quickly.

Well, he was the one who wanted to date, so she didn't have to worry about it and could simply follow his lead and whatever his date plan was.

As soon as they arrived at the bookstore, Eriri recommended manga and novels she liked—and just like the last time they were here. Eriri had quite a good time—she didn't have many friends to talk about this kind of stuff, and different from before, Kouta had some knowledge in this industry.

That's why they had a better conversation this time than the last. Eriri didn't know why he chose a bookstore, maybe he knew that she liked this kind of place. Well, at least she had a good time.

After that, Kouta brought her to the park nearby. It was a park that looked pretty quiet, but Eriri could see some families and children playing in the field.

"Why—you brought me here?"

"Ah—this park actually has a good crêpes store. I want you to try it."

"Eh, is that so?"

Just like Kouta said, they arrived at the crêpes store. There were many options, but Eriri went with her personal favorite: Creamy Strawberry Crêpes. At that time, Eriri found how complicated Kouta's face was—She didn't know what he was thinking, but she knew that there was a profound sadness in his eyes.

They were eating those crêpes on a bench shaded by a tree. Kouta didn't talk much, like in the bookstore; he just silently watched those families who playing in the field and ate those crêpes slowly.

Before it came out of nowhere, Kouta weakly thanked her.

Eriri didn't know actually what happened—but when she heard what he told her when they have breakfast. She took notice, that maybe this park related to his family. She was a bit lost, but for the first time, she wanted to know what he was thinking.

"Are you fine?" Eriri asked.

"Hm—Me? Ah—Thanks to you. I don't think I will come to this place without you." Kouta asked shortly. "Oh–well, how about we finish this date by going to the Aquarium." Kouta added.

"Eh, aquarium? Well, it's okay."

"Good—Follow me, okay."

Kouta grabbed Eriri's hand. Till now, Kouta has never tried to touch her, but after they went to those parks, he held her hand and didn't let her go. Eriri found this embarrassing, but well—it may be the last time, so she let him do that, and it had been a long time since she went to the aquarium, so it may be she just needs to enjoy herself.

While she was enjoying her favorite attraction, the beluga whales. The underwater glass tunnel with the dolphin was an enjoyable experience. Eriri spent a while just watching the dolphins from there. The scenery made her forget about everything and enjoy every bit of the aquarium.

Kouta on the other hand, was surprisingly quiet the whole time—he actually let her do what she wanted to do without any complaint.

Well, Eriri didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't look like he wanted to say anything. As she looked, many fish were swimming around the beluga whale—Eriri couldn't help but think how beautiful the nature was.

And her hand grabbed tightly to the point Eriri felt hurt a bit.

"What–are you—" Eriri said it as she froze when she saw something unexpected. Stand there was Kouta without saying anything, and he just stood there—saw the fish while dropping his tears.

"Kouta–are you crying?" Eriri asked in a low voice, unsure what to say. She never saw Kouta in such a vulnerable state since he was always confident, cocky, and cunning. She never expected to see him like this.

"Hm—Me—crying?" Kouta replied with a question in his face. "Ah—" He added when he realized his tears.

"Is that so—finally—I think I can move on properly," Kouta said something Eriri wouldn't understand—but he might realize something about what he was crying for—and he smiled at her.

"Thanks—this is all thank to you." He continued.

Of course, Eriri didn't know why he thanked her, but that's not a problem for her. Because it was the first time since they spent time together for a week. Eriri noticed Kouta's genuine smile—an innocent smile unlike the one he used when they talked for a week.

And he did with his cute face, but Eriri knows how unique his manly attributes are.

Eriri couldn't help but be captivated by those smiles. She knew Kouta had already done terrible things to her, but she remembered how much he wanted her, and how he told her how he knew her feelings for her childhood friend, but he still wanted her.

It was wrong—

But, Eriri can't help herself.

At that moment, Eriri could feel her face becoming hot—and maybe reddening—and her heart starting to throb. She couldn't look away from Kouta.

They were holding each other's hands and staring at each other.

Kouta slowly moved his face closer—Eriri knew what he would do, but rather than move away, she actually expected it. When he came close, Eriri closed her eyes, waiting for the kisses to come.

And when it came, Eriri felt how surprisingly different it was from the kiss they were doing last night. It was just a simple kiss—lips and lips meeting—that gave her an unexpected warm feeling and sweetness.

The kiss in the aquarium with blueish light around her—with fish and nature. Their hands holding each other—It was such a romantic kiss that always stayed in Eriri's mind.

"Eri became my woman—" Once again, Kouta said those words.

She was perplexed for a moment, as if she didn't know how to answer. It was such a wrong word to say at this moment. But for those two, they were already accustomed, as Kouta already said to her several times.

But for a moment, she actually had some consideration, before she answered; it could already be the answer that he expected to come.

"I can't—I can't—I like Tomoya—" And for the first time, Eriri answered Kouta truly. Her honest feeling
