Late-night Call

Two hours later, Hitomi also fell asleep. She tried to get up and return to her place but I stopped her, telling her it was already late so she should just stay the night.

After a lot of convincing that included more kisses, she eventually gave in and snuggled into my arms, her breathing evening out as she succumbed to sleep.

I also ought to rest but I reached out for my phone. There's no way I would forget to send goodnight messages to my girls.

However, just before I turned it off, someone replied to me.

I looked at the time and it was already close to one in the morning. Someone was pulling an all-nighter again, and who else was it other than the usual suspect?

Mizuki.

Her message reads; "Ruki, are you sleeping over there?"

Although one of my eyes was already closed, I quickly typed in my reply to not let the girl wait another second, "Yes. What about you? Why are you up this late again? Are you waiting for me to scold you again?"
