"Wait! Forget that. I misspoke. I meant devoted to Ryouko, not me!"
Just when I thought she was not going to realize it, Orimura-sensei suddenly jumped up in panic as she desperately corrected herself.
Maybe if she was a little closer to me, she would've grabbed my collar and shook me like crazy.
Nonetheless, I had this gut feeling that it was more of a slip of the tongue rather than a misspoken word. It could be her real thoughts leaking out unintentionally in the heat of the moment.
In response to her, I put on a teasing smile which immediately triggered her.
"What are you smiling at, you brat?!"
"Nothing, sensei. I just thought it might be more interesting to be courted by you."
While I didn't really mind if she started helping me to get more alone time with Ryouko-san, that's not really going to change anything. This request might as well not exist since I'm already devoted to her.
