Volume 3 Chapter 6 Promise
Standing at the edge of the changing room, I realized that there was no one around, and Ice had already moved to the bath.
"...Alright, I'm going into the changing room."
"Y-yes..."
A nervous voice responded. Even though I knew there was no one else around, I took a deep breath and entered the changing room.
As I entered the changing room, as expected, there was no one there. It was such a normal thing, but I felt a slight sense of relief. What am I doing? I'm totally exposing my virginity, how uncool.
"..."
But in reality, because I was a virgin, it was indeed uncool. Damn it. I want to do things confidently if I can. ...But that's impossible!
I sighed and started taking off my clothes. It wasn't something I hesitated about since I did it every day. Well, I shouldn't hesitate, but...
"Ah..."
In the corner of my vision, I saw Ice's clothes neatly placed in a basket. My nervousness skyrocketed.
"..."
I felt like running away. But I didn't want to be ashamed of myself, so I undressed completely.
Anyway, I open the door to the large bathhouse.
"Ah...!"
In the hot water, Ice was holding a giant dragon egg. Her shoulders bouncing, but she doesn't look at me.
"..."
I silently moved to the edge of the bathhouse and started washing my body with soap.
Silence. The bathhouse was filled with only the faint sound of the water moving and the sound of me scrubbing my body.
I diligently washed my whole body, every nook and cranny.
Then, I rinsed off the foam with a bucket and headed back to the bathhouse.
"..."
Tying up her pure white hair, exposing her pure white shoulders from the water, Ice was warming the egg. I cleared my throat at the ripples spreading around Ice and gently dipped my foot into the water.
The water trembled. I submerged my body in the water. Looking at Ice, I confirmed once again that her face was turning bright red.
"Um, we're warming the egg together, right?"
"..."
Nodding silently, Ice agreed. Even Ice, who was usually so brave, seemed to be speechless in this situation.
I gathered my courage and slowly approached Ice. Then, I embraced the egg in front of her.
Naturally, my hand touched Ice's skin, her pure white and soft skin.
"Ah..."
"Sorry..."
"N-no... It's okay... To warm the egg, we need to be close..."
Ice also reached out to me and gently embraced me. The distance between us shortened. Our knees touched, fitting together. Just like when we warmed up outside the bath, Ice's face was very close.
"..."
We were both too embarrassed and nervous to say anything.
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but admire Sandra's boldness from last time when she forcefully brought the girls in. Sandra, you're amazing. What's going on in your head?
"Hey, Wade-kun."
As I was thinking that, Ice called out to me and said,
"For now... just for now, don't think about anyone else."
"Got it."
In front of us, we gaze at each other. Holding onto the egg, using it as both an excuse and a barrier.
"...I-I'm getting embarrassed after all."
"Yeah, same here. ...I'm way more nervous than before."
"..."
"..."
At a distance where even our breathing can be heard directly, Ice remains in her natural state. Just that fact alone made my head feel like it was boiling.
Pure white, cute, and actually quite curvy. Ice is in a situation where if I reach out my hand, I could touch everything.
I want to touch her.
Inside me, desires are rising fervently. My breath is heavy. I can feel the blood, heated from my heart, rushing down to my lower abdomen.
Ice seems to be in the same state. Her face flushed, breathing heavily, and staring intently at me.
"...Ice."
"Wade, kun..."
In a casual manner, we leaned in closer, our faces almost touching, and our lips brushed against each other. Gently but firmly, we drew closer, exchanging a kiss.
"Wade, more... please..."
Our lips met. As we repeated the motion, Ice's tongue slipped between my lips.
It was a bright red tongue, like an apple, like blood, like a devil, exploring my mouth greedily.
I considered giving in to desire. Touching that soft skin, playing with that voluptuous body, and succumbing to lust.
But in the end, my rationality prevailed.
"...Wade, kun?"
I gently pushed Ice's shoulder back, and Ice looked at me with a puzzled expression.
I confessed,
"I like you, Ice."
"------"
At those words, Ice seemed on the verge of tears. Her eyes glistened, and she tightly pressed her lips together.
Nevertheless, I continued.
"So, I don't want to do anything rash here. No need for excuses like egg. ...I must respond to your feelings. So, let's stop this here."
"...Wade-kun..."
Ice called me with a lonely look, then smiled slyly.
"It can't be helped, huh... But, it's so like you, Wade-kun, lovely. ...Here, the egg."
I was handed an egg. I nodded and accepted it.
Then I stood up.
And then, Ice said,
"Huh... B-big..."
"..."
I should've just used the egg to cover up down there. Seriously.
After getting out of the bath and holding the egg in the living room, Ice came out a little later.
"...The bath was nice, right, Wade-kun?"
"Yeah, it was a good bath."
Surprisingly, we smoothly exchanged words. The tension and confusion from earlier seemed like a lie, back to normal.
"...Hey, Wade-kun. Can we sleep together tonight...?"
Look at this reality, it's not like the usual, you bastard.
"...Ice, do you remember what we talked about earlier?"
When I asked with a troubled expression, Ice waved her hands in a flustered manner.
"Uh, well, um... not that, but it would be nice if we could warm the eggs together at night, you know? So, um, this time, really, just that, nothing more..."
"I see..."
Well, we've already seen each other n*ked once. It's not like sleeping together in pajamas now would make much of a difference.
"That's fine. So, shall we sleep together?"
"Yes, sure! Hehehe..."
Unable to contain her joy, Ice smiles and clings to my back.
"What's wrong, Ice?"
"...I've always wanted to do this. But I couldn't until now."
Hugging me tightly, Ice closes her eyes quietly. She seems to be savoring the happiness. Feeling the warmth, I can't help but smile with joy.
I stand up and take Ice's hand.
"Playing around is fun, but I'm tired, let's go to sleep."
"Okay..."
With a slight blush on my cheeks, I smile at Ice and head towards my room. The candle that lights up on its own when I open the door is a sign of the house's will.
I offer thanks to the house, place the egg on the bed, and lie down.
"Hey, Ice, come over here."
"Y-yes... Excuse me for intruding."
Ice awkwardly climbs into the bed and lies down beside me.
We make eye contact over the egg. But unlike the steamy feeling in a bath, it's not overwhelming. It's warmer, with a comforting drowsiness.
I hold the egg close. Ice also snuggles up to the egg.
"Goodnight, Ice."
"Yes, goodnight, Wade-kun..."
I quietly close my eyes. The candle goes out on its own. Normally, sharing a bed with a girl would make me too nervous to sleep. But tonight is different.
We were just about to do it, confess our feelings, and truly connect. Now, there's no more nervousness.
I placed my hand on top of Ice's hand holding the egg.
"Mm... hehe..."
Ice laughed happily. As I heard that, I drifted off into a warm sleep.
When I woke up, instead of the egg, there was a small girl curled up between Ice and me, about the size of an elementary school student.
