When I Saved a Girl Who Was About to Be Kidnapped and It Turned Out to Be a Princess Who Had Come to Visit in Secret
“–hmmm. ……”
It was the time of day when the morning sun was rising and sunlight was coming into the room through the gaps in the curtains.
Luna slowly opened her eyes.
“………….”
She must have been sleepy.
She blinks slowly with sleepy eyes.
The expression on her face was like that of a young child, and it made me feel happy in the morning.
I’m not going to do anything to wake her up, but I’m going to wait for her to become more conscious.
“Hmmm……..”
As I was doing so, Luna, who was still sleepy, came up to me and snuggled up to my chest.
Then, she rubs her face against my chest as if she is trying to pamper herself.
I wondered if she was actually awake, even though she looked like she was asleep.
I looked at her, but her eyes were closed again, and her mood did not seem to indicate that she was conscious.
Perhaps, she is just being sweet to me in her sleep.
It is questionable whether she recognizes me, but since she is so cute, I give her a big hug and pat her head gently.
“Hehehe ……”
Luna, who likes to be petted, puts her arms around me with a cute smile on her face.
She gently exerts herself and hugs me back the same way I hug her.
The face that had been rubbing against mine was now pressed against my chest.
I wondered if she was awake after all.
“…………”
As I was distracted by the pampered Luna, I suddenly felt her gaze on me.
When I looked in the direction where I felt the gaze, I saw Ayla-chan looking down at me and Luna with interest.
No, judging from her gaze, she seems to be looking at Luna who is spoiled.
“Good morning, Ayla chan. Did you sleep well?”
Our eyes met, so I greeted her.
Ayla chan tilted her head.
“I got all the sleep I needed, but it seems Seito-sama couldn’t sleep, huh?”
While answering my question in a deceptive manner, Ayla-chan could tell that I was sleep deprived.
“I slept all right.”
“I at least know that’s a lie.”
I answered her so as not to worry her, but I guess she still saw through me easily.
Ayla chan was right, after I talked with Ayla chan on the balcony, I got into the same bed with Luna, but her cute and agitated appearance stimulated me so much that I could not sleep.
I’ve slept with Luna in my shirt more than once or twice, but now that it’s clear that she likes me, I’m more aware of her than ever.
Even when we originally started sleeping together it was hard for me to fall asleep, and if it got worse, there was no way I could fall asleep.
“There is still time to get up, and I will wake you up so you don’t have to worry about oversleeping. Why don’t you take a nap?”
Perhaps concerned about my physical condition, Ayla chan suggested that I take a nap.
I glance at Luna.
Luna in my arms had stopped moving, and I could hear her breathing again.
She must have been satisfied with the light pampering and started sleeping again.
Even when we first started sleeping together, Luna was not the type to get up easily, so she seems to be weak in the morning.
Since she was starting to sleep again, I thought it would be a good idea if I went back to sleep too, but to be honest, I didn’t feel like I could sleep.
“It seems like it would be harder for me to get to sleep halfway through the day, so I’ll pass.”
“Do you ever sleep during class?”
“Well, that’s …… probably, because even if I take a nap now, the result will be the same.”
I can’t say I won’t sleep.
Of course, I will do my best to stay awake, but even so, classes are a battle against sleepiness for students.
I couldn’t make it clear that I wouldn’t sleep in this sleep-deprived state.
“I hope you understand that if you fail to exercise self-control or appear sloppy, your reputation with the royal family will suffer.”
Ayla-chan warns me in a roundabout way that your attitude toward life is being watched.
Since Luna is in the classroom, the guards are probably watching from afar.
I’m in the same class, so I was also being watched, and it looks like this will be reported to the royal family.
“If I don’t give them enough credit, does that mean they’ll break off the engagement? ……”
“No, that’s not true. I’m sure Luna-sama won’t allow it.”
When I muttered what I was thinking, Ayla-chan immediately denied it.
“Then, what will happen……?”
I was afraid to ask because I had a bad feeling about it, but I was also afraid not to ask, so I asked with a sense of trepidation.
“Of course, we’re going to knock that gut back in. Forcefully.”
In response to my question, Ayla chan smiled at me in a very cute way.
Yes, she is an S girl after all.
“I’m sure that role will be taken by Ayla-chan. ……”
“I appreciate your quick understanding. I also don’t want to be harsh on someone whom Luna-sama considers important, so I have advised you in advance to prevent something like that from happening.”
Is this true ……?
It doesn’t sound like you think that, though…….
Rather, you seem to want to do it with pleasure.
I’m definitely not going to sleep during class. ……
“—And well, let’s leave the seriousness aside.”
“No, I think that’s the part where you say you’re joking.”
“No, it’s not a joke, because if it happens, we’ll actually do it.”
The flow of the conversation was strange, so I tried to make a comment, but she replied with a straight face.
It’s strange, even though Ayla-chan was the first to blurt out.
“Among the herbs I brought from Arcadia, there is one that is good for lack of sleep and fatigue, so I will make you some tea right away.”
Ayla-chan says this and heads toward the kitchen.
It looks like she’s going to make a pot of herbal tea for me.
I don’t know whether she’s being …… mean or kind.
Well, she’s probably a kind girl at heart.
While thanking Ayla-chan in my heart, I turned my gaze to Luna, who had begun to sleep next to me.
The reason why Ayla chan was looking at Luna was probably because she wanted to see her sleepy face
I know how she feels because it is soothing to see such a cute sleeping face.
“Luna is so lucky to have such a cute and kind servant.”
I gently caressed Luna’s cheek as she slept defenselessly like a child, thinking of Ayla chan, who was devoted to her.
