The Most Beautiful Girl Wants To Tease

Although it was on a whim, Saito and I decided to go do Hatsumode.

She seemed to be looking forward to it quite a bit, and although she was reading, she seemed somewhat restless and fidgety.　

I couldn’t help but smile at the sight of her. When she noticed me smiling, her cheeks slightly blushed as she glared at me as if to say, [What is it?].  This repeated several times.

[I’ll go get changed]

It was late in the evening, after 10 pm, when she closed her book with a slam and stood up.

[Eh? Isn’t it fine to go just like that?]

I thought she was going to wear her current outfit, so I retorted.

Was there a need to change clothes?　

I was originally dressed with the intent to go out, so I didn’t have any problems, but if she went out as she is, it might be a little rough, but not completely unnatural.　

Skinny black pants and a white hoodie might be too simple, but I don’t think it’s enough to worry about.

[I can’t let people see me dressed in my loungewear]

She let out a sigh and gave me a dumbfounded look.

It was certainly not an appropriate outfit for a girl to wear outside, and she was probably concerned about that.　

I felt as if her eyes were telling me to be considerate to a girl.

[You don’t care if I see it?]

[You’re different… I know you’re not the kind of person who would change your attitude just because I’m dressed like this]

[Thanks for that]

If she cared about her appearance, she would dress up properly in front of me as well, but it seems like I had been excluded.　

I let out a wry smile at the thought that I was trusted in a strange way again.

[I’ll go change in the bathroom]

[Okay]

After saying that, she walked towards the room exit.　

I thought she was going to leave, but when she put her hand on the doorknob, she turned to me.

[Right, no peeking, okay?]

[I won’t peek…]

[I know. Just kidding]

I stared at her, wondering what she was talking about, and she laughed teasingly.　

Her eyes narrowed mischievously and she giggled, which was more s*xy than her usual innocence, and for a moment I forgot to breathe.　

It was a sweet, yet slightly arousing smile that I’d never seen before. It was a devilish smile with a hint of maturity, and it was enough to make my heart race.　

I felt my cheeks heat up, but I managed to get words out.

[…Go quickly]

[Yes, I’ll go change]

She left the room, her mouth was loose like a child successfully pulling a prank.

I felt like I was being used, and I wasn’t sure how I should feel　

I wish she would stop this kind of teasing, as it was bad for my heart in a lot of ways.　

I let out a small sigh as she disappeared behind the door.
