It was midnight by the time I got back to Elena’s house because I had been drinking with Garde.
At this hour, she might have fallen asleep.
I thought so, but when I saw the house, the lights were on. Apparently, she was still awake.
Naturally, Termito’s steps quickened.
When the courtyard where he had first met Elena came into view, he saw a small back on the garden chair.
The small back swayed in the light of the lamp.
Elena turned around when she heard Termito’s footsteps.
“Hey, welcome back. You’re late, aren’t you?”
“I’m sorry.”
“But I’ll forgive you because you came back.”
Elena stared at me, somewhat relieved.
“That’s right, I bought you a souvenir.”
Termito pulled out a cross necklace from his bag, which he had purchased at a small shop, and showed it to her.
The cross shone dully in the orange light of the lamp.
Elena’s face tightened when she saw it.
“What’s wrong?”
“….No, it’s nothing.”
Elena receives the cross necklace from Termito.
“….Thank you. I’ll treasure it.”
She tried to put it around her own neck, but stopped for a moment.
“That’s right, Teru.”
Elena handed the cross necklace to Termito.
“Would you like to put it around my neck?”
“Eh?”
“I’m a bit of a klutz, you know. I can’t bear to let the gift fall to the ground. …Can you help me?”
“L, leave it to me!”
Thermito takes it with a nervous look. Elena gazed at him with satisfaction as she gathered her long hair with her hands and turned her back.
He looked at Elena’s back and was surprised.
The white nape of her neck peeking out from her silvery hair. Normally I would not have noticed it, but the bold, open back of her outfit revealed her white skin. The innocence and sexiness that I felt in the midst of the neatness of the outfit was very seductive.
I gulped down my saliva.
When I put my face close to hers, I was almost sucked into her snow-white skin.
“….Teru?”
Elena turns around with an uneasy look on her face.
“Wh, what is it!?”
His voice trailed off.
“No, it’s embarrassing to be stared at so closely….”
“Eh, ah, yes. That’s right!”
Suppressing the urge to touch Elena’s skin with all my might, I stepped forward to hang the necklace.
I put my arms around her in a hug from behind and bring her straight to my back.
He then tried to fit the clasp, but was distracted by Elena’s small but beautiful back. With the dark surroundings, it was difficult to get it right.
Elena’s eyes are also on her back, and she occasionally moves her body, which fascinates Termito even more.
“Hey, Teru.”
“What is it?”
“Are you that curious about my back?”
“Eh, ah….!”
Elena guessed his thoughts and he got so shook that he dropped the necklace.
“I, I’m sorry.”
I picked up the necklace, and wiped the dirt off with my hem.
When Termito was about to try again, Elena made a suggestion.
“….If you’re so worried about my back, why don’t you try doing it backwards?”
“Backwards?”
Elena urged me to change my posture.
“Th, this is a bit…”
Termito touches Elena’s body with only a slight movement.
Elena’s suggestion was to get Termito to do it in the form of a front hug, rather than a back hug.
This way, Elena’s back would be less of an issue than before. However, this was not because he could not see her back, but because he was in close contact with Elena and had no time to pay attention to her back.
Elena’s breath hit Termito’s chest. In fact, Elena’s face was brushing against Termito’’s chest.
“U, um. I’m sorry, I came back in a hurry, so I’m sweating quite a bit.”
“Oh, I see. No wonder, Teru’s scent is so strong.”
Elena pressed her nose against Termito’s chest.
“So you know, I’m sweaty and dirty!”
“Is that so? Teru came here in a hurry for me. You can’t be dirty.”
Despite Termito’s explanation, Elena would not let go of her face.
“And I like Teru’s smell a lot. It’s so comforting”
Her sweet words scorched my brain.
Calm down, calm down, me. That’s what I tell myself in my mind.
When I tried to put my arm around Elena’s neck and back to put on the necklace, her silver hair touched my hand.
“Haa!”
He lets out a strange sound.
“Teru?”
Elena looks worriedly at Termito.
“I, it’s okay, no problem.”
Elena’s hair touched my hand, and I couldn’t say that my voice sounded strange.
When I regained consciousness, I focused my nerves on my fingertips to put on the necklace.
However, the more I focused, the more I felt the texture of Elena’s hair. It was silky and shiny, and light as a feather. Or that it is dyed a fiery color by the light of a lamp. I can feel the magical scent that drives Termito crazy.
“Teru’s heart is beating well.”
Elena crawls her fingers over Termito’s chest, knowing or not about his thoughts.
“That’s because….I’m alive.”
“It’s beating strongly. …..Rather, it’s a little faster than before, isn’t it?”
Elena looked up at Termito with a grin and a sneer.
He felt like protesting that it was all Elena’s fault that his heart was beating so busily.
If he continued at this pace, he would be swallowed up by Elena’s pace. In order to divert the conversation, he decided to tell her what he had heard from the owner of the small shop today.
“I heard that there is a custom around here to give a cross to someone you care about.”
“Hee, that’s new to me.”
“Well, I heard that there were vampires around here a long time ago, so people give crosses to their loved ones as a sign of protection.”
Elena’s body seemed to harden.
“Elena-san?”
“…It’s nothing.”
Elena mutters in her usual way.
“….I’ll tell you, crosses don’t work on vampires.”
“Eh, is that so?”
“It’s a way for the church to increase its own authority and make money selling crosses.”
“That’s kind of scummy, isn’t it.”
“They’ve always been like that.”
When Elena spoke as if she had seen it all before, Termito felt a moment of discomfort, but then he felt a definite touch on his fingertips.
“Oh.”
The clasp is on. I underestimated it just because it was a necklace, but it was quite difficult to put on. It took me longer than I expected.
Termito was about to let go of his hand when he realized what was happening.
I noticed that Elena’s body was holding me tighter than before.
Probably because she was unconsciously trying to get into a comfortable position, she had gotten even closer.
Her white back peeked through the silvery head. A sweet scent wafting through the air.
I feel the urge to hug the girl in my arms as hard as I can.
Just a little. Just a little bit. I gave Elena the necklace and put it around her neck. It’s okay to be rewarded with something like this.
It was Elena’s fault for being so attractive in the first place. I’m a man myself, and if she shows me such a defenseless place, it’s like asking me to attack her. So it wouldn’t hurt to give her a little hug.
I muttered an excuse in my mind. I stopped moving and focused all my attention to feel everything about Elena.
“…..Still going to take a while?”
I was momentarily stunned by Elena’s urging.
“I, I’m sorry. Just a little longer.”
With a sense of guilt, I swallowed the words, “Please let me hug you just a little longer.”
Without questioning Termito’s words, Elena quietly wraps herself in Thermito’s arms.
Focusing on her whole body, he feels Elena’s body.
She is thin and soft. If I put too much pressure on it, it might break at any moment.
Such a glasswork-like girl is now resting her body against Termito, asserting her presence.
I inhaled Elena’s sweet scent into my chest. He struggles to stop himself from melting, and feels Elena’s presence all over his body.
If I could, I’d do this forever.
Still, at some point I would have to let go. As I tried to let go of her body with a sense of regret, my clothes were tugged at.
“Elena-san?”
“Can we stay like this for a little while longer?”
Surprised by the unexpected proposal, Termito accepted it. He hugged her tightly instead of replying.
I could feel my heart filling up. I can’t believe that I wasn’t the only one thinking about it, but Elena as well.
I’m so happy. Too happy.
I was so engrossed in the hug that before I knew it, the sky was starting to light up.
Elena came back to herself and let go of Termito.
“I’m sorry you had to go along with my selfishness. ….Let’s go back to the mansion.”
Elena’s back turned to Termito, and she looked somewhat forlorn.
I felt as if she would disappear if I left her alone.
I want to say something to her. I don’t want to leave Elena as she is now.
Termito summoned up all his courage and called out to Elena.
“Can I buy you another necklace?”
Elena turned around and answered with a big smile on her face.
“Of course!”
When Termito returned to the villa, he undressed in the changing room to take a bath.
I noticed that my clothes, which should have smelled like sweat, had some kind of sweet scent. This scent must have been left from when I hugged Elena earlier.
I’m a pervert. That’s what I thought, but there was no way to escape the temptation in front of me.
“Elena-san…”
I felt bad, but I hugged my clothes and I savored the aftermath.
It was midnight by the time I got back to Elena’s house because I had been drinking with Garde.
At this hour, she might have fallen asleep.
I thought so, but when I saw the house, the lights were on. Apparently, she was still awake.
