"How does it taste?"
"It's delicious! How did you make these?"
"Hehe, I thought since the ho economics classroom has cookie molds, they should work for chocolate too. So I bought lots of chocolate to experint with, and eventually succeeded!"
"I want to eat more."
Chocolate is different from cookies—it lts easily and is harder to shape.
Tachibana Akane had clearly put in considerable effort.
However, it seed she had sacrificed flavor.
After eating several pieces, Kaoru realized they were all pure chocolate with very high cocoa concentration.
Seeing how happy Tachibana Akane looked, and being the only one tasting these chocolates, Kaoru had no choice but to keep munching on them.
The two squatted on the floor, leaning against the wall.
Seeing him enjoy the chocolates so much, Tachibana Akane started craving so herself and couldn't resist trying one.
"Uwah, this is way too bitter!"
Her face contorted, and without a second thought, she shoved the half-eaten chocolate into Kaoru's mouth.
"Didn't you make these yourself?"
Kaoru was utterly confused. How could the maker not know how they tasted?
"I, I forgot to try them!"
Tachibana Akane's cheeks flushed slightly. "At first I bought many different flavors of chocolate, but when I mixed them all together, the taste beca really strange. So I just bought dark chocolate instead."
"You didn't taste test them at all?"
Kaoru already understood what had happened.
Of course dark chocolate would be more bitter than most other chocolates.
Tachibana Akane felt embarrassed.
Counting on her fingers, she whispered, "I want to eat it with you."
'Oh no, the senpai has fallen in love!'
"Let's not eat these. I'm keeping them as souvenirs."
Kaoru carefully sealed her chocolates and tucked them into his backpack.
Then he pulled out the chocolates he'd bought today. "We'll eat these instead."
But when he opened the box, only three pieces remained.
"I'll have two, you have one - since you've already eaten plenty of chocolates today."
Tachibana stated her plan matter-of-factly, though not rely to get an extra piece.
"That doesn't work for . I have a better way for us to share equally."
Kaoru rejected her suggestion. "Most people don't know there's another way to eat chocolate. The conditions are quite particular, so I've never tried it before."
His words piqued Tachibana's curiosity. What other way could there be to eat chocolate?
She watched as Kaoru unwrapped one chocolate and placed it in his mouth.
Tachibana stared blankly, then grew anxious, thinking he was tricking her to eat it himself.
Just as she was about to get angry, he suddenly turned and kissed her.
Her lips trembled slightly, glistening with moisture.
Her previously pressed lips parted unexpectedly under his masculine presence. Tachibana's eyes widened as she felt sothing bittersweet with milky sweetness flow into her mouth.
Along with the sticky sensation, she instinctively swallowed.
Like a baby bird being fed, the girl's throat moved, and a bit dripped from the corner of her mouth.
Her hands unconsciously rose to clutch Kaoru's sleeves as she leaned sideways.
Kaoru wrapped an arm around her waist to prevent her from falling over while more of the sticky substance disappeared in their mouths, gradually leaving her lips.
When their lips parted, Tachibana seed dazed, staring blankly at Kaoru before uttering a confused.
"Huh?"
"This is the other way to eat chocolate. What do you think?"
Kaoru whispered, amusent dancing in his eyes. "We shared the sa piece together."
Tachibana suddenly flushed crimson, finally understanding what had happened. She began pounding Kaoru's chest.
"You idiot! Who eats chocolate like that? That's disgusting!"
Just thinking about the chocolate lting in his mouth and hers simultaneously, mixing with both their saliva, made Tachibana feel utterly revolted.
"Drop dead! A thousand tis over!"
Kaoru caught her flailing hands and kissed her again.
At first, Tachibana resisted, trying to push him away, but gradually stopped struggling. She closed her eyes and began enjoying the kiss.
After a while, Tachibana blushed and whispered, "You can't bully ... Using your tongue is cheating. I don't know how to do that."
"This is the most proper way to kiss. I'll teach you more about kissing later, senior."
Kaoru said with complete seriousness.
Tachibana pouted. "Teach nothing! I don't want to learn such vulgar things. Go practice with Ichinose and the others!"
Kaoru chuckled dryly and picked up another chocolate.
But before he could speak, Tachibana imdiately snatched it away, eyeing him warily.
"Not going to eat it?"Kaoru asked shalessly.
"One for , one for you - that should be fine."
Tachibana Akane glared at him. "If you dare try anything funny again, I'll bite you to death!"
Though it was disgusting, it was rely unpleasant at worst.
But to suddenly kiss her without reason, and in that manner - Tachibana Akane felt she was being quite generous by not getting angry with him.
Kaoru behaved himself, silently eating the chocolate.
Tachibana Akane secretly glanced at him, feeling sowhat reluctant in her heart, so she kissed his cheek.
"I'm not actually angry!"
The girl pouted. "If you want to kiss , at least tell first. I'm not your girlfriend - you need my consent to kiss ."
Kaoru was taken aback for a mont, then smiled. "When you kissed just now, you didn't seek my consent either."
"That's different. I usually kiss small cats and dogs too," Tachibana Akane had flexible standards.
"In my eyes, you're just a silly bad dog. Only I can kiss you - if you kiss , it's harassnt!"
Taking advantage of her finishing speaking, Kaoru kissed her, looking at her with a half-smile.
"Even if I harass you, what can you do about it, senpai?"
Tachibana Akane's face flushed red, trembling with anger as she said stiffly, "I'm ignoring you!"
With these words, she distanced herself from Kaoru, completely unwilling to be near such an ill-mannered scumbag.
Kaoru suppressed his laughter. To be honest, teasing this senpai and Kamuro was indeed more fun.
"Senpai, I was wrong."
"Hmph."
"Because you're too cute, I couldn't help myself earlier."
"You're clearly bullying !"
"I like you, senpai."
"Wh-what, what nonsense are you spouting again!"
"I..."
As Kaoru slowly approached Tachibana Akane, the latter looked extrely nervous. However, neither of them expected that the next mont, the office door would open.
Sensing the gaze, Kaoru looked up to see Horikita Suzune and Horikita Manabu standing before them, with Horikita Manabu particularly adjusting his glasses.
"Are we interrupting you?"
Tachibana Akane covered her bright red face with her hands, but Kaoru didn't feel embarrassed at all, standing up without changing expression.
"I have sothing to discuss with you, Mitoma-kun."
Horikita Manabu turned around and returned to the office.
Kaoru realized sothing and looked at Horikita Suzune.
She was holding a book in her arms, its title and cover unclear, but the corners of her eyes were slightly red, as if she had been crying.
"Suzune..."
"We'll talk later," Horikita Suzune interrupted him calmly. "My brother isn't in a good mood right now. I suggest you go in quickly."
Could it be that he found out about his relationship with Horikita Suzune?
Even if Horikita Manabu didn't know, seeing the subtle atmosphere between him and Tachibana Akane would probably put him in a bad mood.
This was a necessary trial for a Harem Overlord.
With the look of soone ready to face death, Kaoru bravely entered the office alone.
