Eternal Melody

Chapter 592 Speechless

Three days later January 5th, 2015, Iroroad High school.

He is adjusting now, performing in a group again. Moreover, Kou, Jun, Ran, and Tetsuo are highly skilled. It makes it easier for him when his team members are on the same level as him. However, 'I didn't see Sumire in the crowd.' Did she not come to school yet?

It also helps that the other guys can handle the crowd well. Yuhi managed to slip away and gradually strolled into the school building. Maybe she is watching it from another place? Although she is getting better at being around other people now. He knew that she was still bad with crowds; she unconsciously avoided them whenever she could.

'I messaged her the other day, and she replied, so I don't think anything went wrong. But three days have passed since she initially said she would stay for one day with Nagawa.' Yuhi exhaled deeply. Maybe he shouldn't have let her go. But if he didn't, then Nagawa would- his thoughts broke off when he spotted Shin leaving the infirmary room.

Yuhi blinked. Perhaps- "Shin?"

"Yuhi. Did you just finish the concert?"

"Yeah." His gaze darted towards Shin and then the door to the infirmary. Shin does not look sick. So then perhaps-

Shin followed his gaze and nodded. "Perfect timing. I found Sumire collapsed on the bridge earlier. She was probably watching from up there."

Did she collapse? Perhaps she caught Nagawas fever?

"The teacher isn't in yet, so you'll have to stay with her. I have a meeting."

"Yeah." Yuhi hurried inside the room and saw Sumire sitting up in a daze. Even from where he stood, he could see her flushed face.

This silly girl, she must have let her guard down again. There is only one way for one person to pass their fever onto the other person. Yuhi walked over, and she looked up with a tender gaze on her face.

"My dear."

"Sleep."

"But you haven't kissed me yet." Sumire pouted.

This girl, what is she thinking when she is sick? Yuhi planned to lecture her when he felt a pair of soft petal-like lips on his.

"Okay, goodnight."

This cheeky little devil- Yuhi sighed, hearing her giggle as she hid under the blanket.

"You know, you missed our surprise live."

"I listened from here! I really wanted to go. But Aika-chan was being strict!" Sumire pouted like she received some injustice.

So Aika must have been with her before.

His lips curve to a smile. "I can sing for you anytime."

"Terashima Yuhi's private concert. I wonder what I did to deserve such a privilege in this life?"

"You seduced me."

Sumire hid under the covers again at those words, and he laughed.

"But you didn't have to come into school today if you're not well."

"Ahem, I only came to flirt with you on the first day back. Otherwise, if I don't show how affectionate we are, those juniors will pester you again."

Yuhi laughed again. She truly is cute when she is jealous. He placed his hand on her forehead.

"How did you get a fever?" It was a stupid question; he already knew how.

"Um." Sumire trailed off awkwardly. "San was sick."

Yuhi immediately understood, and he frowned. Even though he predicted this outcome, this is still troublesome. He flicked her forehead lightly.

"If you don't protect your lips, I have a way of making sure nobody else can get to them."

"Hey! I tried to protest this time. But who knew he would suddenly gain super inhumane strength because he was sick? It caught me off guard!'

'That sounds weird.' He did her some reports in the underworld society recently.

That man is conducting. 'human experiments.' Could it be even Nagawa?

His thoughts broke off when he saw the girl peeking at him.

"What?"

She didn't say anything but extended her hands out.

Yuhi nodded, knowing what she wanted. The moment he accepted her hand, she pushed him down onto the bed. Whenever he looks away for a moment, this girl continues to get prettier. Only a few days have passed since they last saw each other, but she is different than before.

He felt a sharp pain in his neck. She is getting better at biting him, too. Yuhi gently caressed her back. She must be thirsty; he knew Sumire still felt a bit reserved when it came to drinking his blood. She is not used to it yet, but he likes how she is more open about it.

After a few minutes, she drew back.

"Are you done?"

Sumire nodded and sighed. "If only I could attack you all day."

She really does have some crazy thoughts. Then again, he recalled the contents of the diary he had read before. 'I already knew she had some desires towards me.'

"But you'll have to make do with this, for now, Yuhi."

'She leaves me speechless these days.'

Yuhi caressed her hair. "Go back to sleep."

"You sure, Yuhi-san? This is the perfect chance to fool around. The nurse said nobody will come this time."

"Are you having fun? How was staying over at Nagawa's?"

"It was a bother! He was sick. I couldn't go anywhere."

She really--

"Well, it's better than you wandering around with him and having a date outside."

"So you don't mind that we had a date inside?"

"You brat."

Sumire laughed. "I'm joking." She extended her hand out and caressed his cheek. "You seem tired."

"That's my line."

"Taking care of San was exhausting. But the real exhaustion is to come soon. Hino is a demon! I saw his revised changes of my schedule."

Yuhi isn't surprised. Or rather, he saw Hino agonizing over what type of jobs to give Sumire. He even called him over and asked him for advice.

'I've never managed a female artist before. I don't know whether these jobs are suitable.'

Right, some jobs separate gender. But even jobs meant for males, he knew Sumire would do well.

"I looked it over with him," Yuhi admitted.

"My dear, do you suddenly hate me?"

"Why?"

Sumire took out her phone and tossed it towards him. Yuhi looked at the screen, and his sweat fell.

"I only helped him with a few. The rest he came up with on his own."

When he saw how miserable she looked, he kissed her lips softly. "I'll get on these programs too."

"Really?"

"Mmm."

Even if he did not consider some of the jobs suitable for his status, he still received invites for them. Normally he would not consider these jobs, but this would be a good job opportunity to spend more time with her.

Huh, now that he thought about it, he can have dates with her at work. It is good having the same profession after all.
