Life
Lux’s Side
“How is it, Lux? Does this feel good?”
“Y-Yes!”
As Elina-san washed my back with her hands, she asked me that, and I answered nervously.
…Elina-san’s hands are soft and supple, and each slender finger touches my back.
How should I put it… it feels a little seductive.
After washing my back for a while, Elina-san then began washing my arm.
“Wow, Lux’s arms don’t look that thick, but when I touch them, I can feel the muscle. Amazing!”
“I-I mentioned it during the swordsmanship tournament too, but there are plenty of people more trained than me…”
“I said it during the swordsmanship tournament too, but I like your arms because they’re yours, Lux, not anyone else’s! Ahh, you really worked hard all this time, didn’t you…”
Saying that, Elina-san stroked my upper arm.
…She’s a woman, and on top of that, Elina-san has such a well-proportioned, slender figure, so I can understand why she’d be moved by something she’s not used to seeing… but even so, it’s so embarrassing…!
After seeming satisfied, Elina-san then went back to washing my left arm.
From my upper arm down to my forearm, and then… as her hand touched the back of mine, she entwined her fingers with mine.
“E-Elina-san!?”
“Lux’s hands are bigger than mine… I like your hands, Lux, but do you like mine?”
“Eh!? Elina-san’s hands, you mean?”
“Yes.”
Even now, with our hands joined, the warmth of her hand directly conveys her kindness to me.
“…I think… Elina-san’s hands are nice too.”
Although I answered like that, Elina-san moved the fingers intertwined with mine as she spoke.
“Ehh? I asked if you liked them or not, so I want you to answer like I did when I said I liked your hands, either like or dislike.”
“S-Sorry! Umm… Elina-san’s hands… I-I like them…”
“Ah…!”
Elina-san let out a small, high-pitched voice.
…But my own feelings after answering that were completely overwhelmed by embarrassment, and as my face grew hot, Elina-san, who was behind me, patted my head.
“Sorry for teasing you. But hearing you say you like my hands made me really happy.”
“I-I’m glad if you’re happy, Elina-san…!”
Even though I was embarrassed, since Elina-san was happy, that was enough for me. Once my embarrassment settled down a little, she began gently and carefully washing my right arm in the same way.
“Okay, that should do it… Next, I’ll wash the front for you!”
“Eh!? T-The front!? I can do that myself…”
Just as I was about to say that, Elina-san hugged me from behind and touched my torso.
The fact that she was touching my torso and hugging me from behind was already shocking enough, but more than that… her body, especially her very large chest, was pressed tightly against my back, which was incredibly stimulating for me.
“E-Elina-san… um, that…”
“Your torso is amazing too, Lux… I could tell even through your clothes, but actually touching you like this shows even more how hard you’ve been working…”
Saying that, she tightened her embrace even more.
As a result, her chest pressed against me even more firmly.
N-No, this is bad. I need her to move away right now, but the sensation of her chest against my back, the softness and elasticity, is so overwhelming that I don’t know what I should say…!
For now, I tried to shift my attention away from that sensation as much as possible.
Elizalina’s Side
As she embraced Lux, Elizalina thought to herself.
Just touching Lux’s torso makes me so happy… Wait, is Lux blushing all over his face and ears because he’s aware of my chest? Eh, so cute…! Usually he seems uninterested in that sort of thing, but when it’s this direct, he really reacts…!
Elizalina felt joy and delight in being noticed as a woman by Lux, and in being able to touch his masculine body.
More. I want to see more of everything about Lux.
Lux’s body, Lux’s expressions, Lux’s reactions… just thinking about the sides of him she hasn’t seen yet makes her want to see them all.
“…”
To be honest, with Elizalina’s conversational skills, Lux’s personality, and the atmosphere and situation, she could make him take off the towel around his waist and go further.
But no, I just can’t do that to Lux. Until now I never felt guilty about anything, I lied and acted if it was for the sake of diplomacy, but with Lux, I just can’t.
Besides, the fact that Lux is so embarrassed that his face and ears turn red and he freezes up just from Elizalina pressing her chest against him means that he’s still not used to things like this, and that he hasn’t even gone that far with Felisiana yet.
Yeah, I’ve basically achieved what I wanted today, and if I trouble Lux any more it wouldn’t be good, so from here on I’ll just enjoy taking a bath with him without thinking too hard.
With that in mind, Elizalina washed Lux’s torso and abdomen, and then the two of them washed the rest of their bodies separately before soaking in the bath together.
By then, Elizalina had created a relaxed atmosphere so Lux no longer had to feel nervous, and the two of them were able to enjoy their time as usual.
“Shall we get out soon? Lux, do you want to go first?”
“No, it’s fine if you go first, Elina-san! …I did get nervous here and there, but it was a really fun time!”
“Ahh! Me too, Lux!”
Really… truly, every moment with Lux is happiness, and today I got to support his hard work, I got to touch him… thanks to Lux, I finally feel like life is fun.
Up until she met Lux, Elizalina’s life had gone exactly as she wished thanks to her brilliant mind and perfect looks. But with Lux, an unpredictable existence, came the new feeling of love. And because of that, her life had become more enjoyable than ever before.
“Then I’ll go out first, Lux!”
“Okay!”
Smiling as she said that, Elizalina picked up her towel and walked toward the bathroom door.
What should I do with Lux from here on… Oh, right, I found a restaurant with a beautiful night view the other day, maybe I’ll take him there. Or if not that, maybe we can go together to a famous place in another country, or stay at a lovely inn, and if the mood feels right then…
Her fantasies about Lux didn’t stop, and as she opened the bathroom door and closed it firmly behind her… immediately after that.
A sword touched against Elizalina’s neck, and with empty eyes and a mechanical voice, Felisiana spoke to her.
“…If you honestly tell me what you did to Lux-kun in this bathroom, I’ll make your death painless.”
