Kagaya wound up spending the night at my place as she coded her cheats for me. Our strategy meeting didnât wrap up until one thirty in the morning, so she didnât want to bother traveling back home. By her own admission, she had all the equipment she needed here. Apparently, this was a more convenient workplace for her. I offered my help, but she shooed me away, warning that staying up too late would affect my behavior at school, to say nothing of my performance in the Trial. She was totally right, and although I hated to leave her alone, I went ahead with my evening routine, showering and preparing for bed.
Everything went fine until there was a soft knock on the door.
âI-Iâm all set, Shinohara.â
ââ¦â
An embarrassed voice announced Saionjiâs arrival, and the door opened to reveal her fresh from a bath. She wasnât going around in a bath towel, of course, but her identity-concealing hoodie was gone. Sheâd changed into some light pajamas pulled from the guest closet. She must have taken pains to dry that long hair of hers, because it didnât look wet at all. Still, one look at the light steam rising from her, and it was clear she had only just gotten out of the bath. It was accompanied by a powerful, mind-bending aroma from either the shampoo or the body soap.
âY-you donât have to stare at me like thatâ¦idiot.â
Time had all but stopped for me from the moment Saionji entered my room. She didnât take it well. Embarrassed, she turned her back to me. Then, kneeling in a very ladylike fashion, she climbed into the futon Iâd laid for her on the floor.
Thatâs right.
Why was Saionji inviting herself into my bedroom in her pajamas? Well, because she apparently wanted to sleep in this room. She reasoned it would allow her to come to Kagayaâs aid should the need arise, but other concerns were also involved.
Hereâs what sheâd had to say about it half an hour before.
âHey, thereâs a curfew at the Saionji house. Itâs actually eight in the evening. Usually, I stick to it to retain my prim rich-girl image, butâ¦you called me out here late at night. I had to sneak past my maid to get out of the place. I left a note, so I donât think itâll become a huge problem, but if I go home now, Iâm gonna get yelled at a whole lot. At worst, they might start monitoring my activities. What will I do if that keeps me from helping you in the future? I canât take that risk until weâve got Yuki back.
âSo if itâs all right with you, Iâd like to stay here toniâWha?!
â?!?!?! â¦â¦â¦?!!
âMe? Stay here?! In your room?! You and me, in the same bed, your head resting on my arm?! B-b-but we havenât even known each other for a month! We havenât sent our papers over to city hall yet! You havenât even met my parentsâ¦
âA-and yeah, we did hold hands a little, butâ¦ohhh.
