I Became a Gallery Manager in Another World

Chapter 66: The Blonde Childhood Friend Is Too Pretty (3)

Ding-!

As the magical elevator arrived, Ian spoke with a soft smile,

Lets get on, Evelyn.

Okay.

His face and voice were still the same as during their date, but I could tell.

From the moment they entered the Cream Pie Inn, Ian had changed.

Just like when I had knocked on Ians door a while ago, not as a childhood friend but as a woman.

Now, Ian had also changed from a childhood friend to something else.

Whirr

[3rd Floor] >> [4th Floor] >> [5th Floor]

.

.

We watched the numbers climb in silence as the magical elevator moved.

It wasnt that we had nothing to say.

We were just focusing on feeling each others affection, alternately squeezing and loosening our intertwined hands.

Ding-

Shortly after, the door of the magical elevator opened on the 7th floor.

[Room 703]

Whether it was coincidence or intentional

The room Ian had reserved was the second room we had been in together.

After you, lady.

Ian said playfully, bowing at the door of room 703.

Ha What are you saying, really

Click-

As I chuckled at Ians ridiculous behavior and opened the door

Thump-!

Uh!Wait..!..Ian!GaspUh!!

Ian pushed me against the wall, biting my neck.

Ha..Ah..!..Nothe door..isnt closed yetStop!.Uh!Just a moment!..Wait..!

I had mentioned Ian probably wouldnt have time to eat

But I hadnt expected him to start so suddenly.

Cant wait.

OhOh no..!Uh!..Justclose the door!Then..!Uh!..Hey..!Ah!Listen to me, will you?!Ah-!.Uh?!

Swoosh-

As Ians leg slid between mine, making our bodies press closer, a moan that sounded like a cat in heat escaped my lips, and I bit my lip hard.

Its all because Evelyn is so cute and pretty.

HaUh..!Really!OkayI got it!I wasbadsoUh!!..Justclose the door!Ahuh!Ian!Gasp..!!StoporUh..!!IllreallygetmadAhuh!!

I should close the door.

Smooch- Smack-

Uhuh!..!..Uh!Ah!Ah!UhuhAh!Gasp!

Though I knew it in my head, every time Ians lips touched my skin, that part felt like an erogenous zone, making it impossible to gather strength in my body.

HaAh!Just a moment..Ah.Uh!!Justa second..UhUh!.Ian!

Youre beautiful, Evelyn. Really beautiful.

Ian whispering that I was pretty in that state filled my head with happiness, making it impossible to resist.

No

To be honest, I didnt want to resist.

Ah!Ah!.AhUh!AhUhuh!AhAh!..I dont knowanymoredo as you wish!

Eventually, I gave up on closing the door, hugging Ian tightly and rubbing against him as much as I had been holding back.

Our Evelyn is so well-behaved. You should stay quiet like that, right?

Ah..!..Uh!Stoptreating melike a childUh?!!

Only then did Ian seem satisfied, lightly licking my neck.

Lick- Smooch- Smooch- Suck!

AhUhUh..Stop licking!Im sweaty!..Eek!No!! That placenot there! Its dirty!..UhUh?!Dont smell it!!

As Ians lips moved lower from my neck, I used all my remaining strength to push him away from my torso.

Anywhere but the armpits was off limits!!!

Though I had showered and changed clothes at the mansion

I was sure I had sweated a lot during our date from the excitement!

Dont worry. Its not dirty at all, and it smells sweet.

AhAhWhat are you saying!You pervert!..No matter what you saythere, that place!Youre not licking it!..Hmph!

Swoosh-

As I turned my head away, Ian brushed my fallen hair behind my ear and said,

I like you, Evelyn.

.

Really

This guy, Ian

-Thump!

.I like you tooIan.

Unable to look him in the eyes, I pressed my forehead against Ians chest and answered.

Evelyn.

Ah!Uh!Uh!Ian..!..Ah-!

Swoosh-

Ians fingers traced my collarbone, and once again, a cat-like moan escaped, but this time I didnt hold back the moans.

Ah..!..AhUh!AhUh!..Ian!!.Ian!!.Uh!Ian!!

Instead, calling Ians name repeatedly, I wanted to remember everything about this moment.

The pounding heartbeat.

The passionate breath.

The salty taste of fingers.

The heated body temperature.

Ians black eyes.

My suggestive face reflected in those black eyes.

The sweat seeping out.

The disheveled clothes.

The ears flushed bright red.

Thus, I engraved every detail of this moment on my body, so I could never forget.

.

.

After a while, with a little distance between us, we silently looked at each others lips.

Thump-! Thump-! Thump-! Thump-!

Without having to say anything, it was clear.

We were about to kiss.

-7cm.

The distance between our lips was getting closer, and my hand clutching Ians collar trembled.

-5cm.

My heart swelled so much that tears seemed to flow on their own.

-3cm.

I slowly closed my eyes and lifted my chin.

-I swear on the 15 years Ive spent with you.

I love you more than anyone else in this world-

-1cm.

Just as Ians and my lips were about to touch

Bang!!!!!

.

.

The door we left open slammed shut with an undeniable loud noise.

That was close!!

Had the door not closed just in time, we almost went straight to 1. The Evelyn Pure Love Ending - (Cons: The world ends).

I had drawn a line as friends with benefits in case something like this happened, but

The problem was that Evelyn was too pretty today.

The end of the world, future life plans, there were surely many important things, but Evelyn was so pretty that I couldnt think of anything else.

Evel

.

Squeeze-

As I tried to call out her name, Evelyn pulled at my collar as if to stop me from speaking.

.

Then, Evelyn slightly lifted her chin and heels, closing her eyes again.

It meant not to break the mood and to continue quickly.

.

But once rationality returned to me, I couldnt bring myself to kiss her, nor could I push away Evelyns hand.

Peck-

So, I kissed the cheek that was infinitely close to Evelyns lips.

Whatwhat is this?

What we were about to do just now?

.

.

.

.

Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!

Evelyns body trembled violently just like before upon hearing my answer.

However, there was one difference: the cause of the trembling had changed from happiness to anger.

Ian!!Youbastard!!!

.

I had no words to reply.

Honestly, at this moment, I was definitely a bastard in anyones eyes.

Evelyn must have felt it too.

If the door had closed just a little later, our relationship could have completely changed.

Youbastard!!Reallya bastard!!..I saidwe should close thedoor anddo it!!

Evelyn?

What!!! Why are you calling me!!! No!! Just dont speak!! Aaaah!! Just get out of the way!! I need to shower!!

Okay.

Ugh!!! Coward! Idiot! Impotent bastard! I really hate you!!!..Aaah!!

.

Bang-!!!

Evelyn stormed into the bathroom and slammed the door shut.

Haah

I couldnt help but let out a sigh.

Bastard, idiot, coward.

Except for impotent, all the words were accurate.

But if we kissed, not betraying Evelyn would mean the end of the world, so I had no choice.

You might think I already betrayed Evelyn because I had sex plenty of times with Yuris or Laplace

But being Evelyns friends with benefits and being her lover were entirely different stories.

Swoosh- Drip- Click-!

Ha! Im so annoyed looking at your face, go take a shower.

Okay.

After the shower, wrapped in a bath towel, Evelyn spoke to me in a cold voice.

Swoosh

Normally, a shower should have improved my gloomy mood, but it did nothing for me this time.

Drip-

In the end, I showered hastily and left the shower room.

Huh?

After finishing my shower, I noticed Evelyn was not in the room.

Not just Evelyn, but her luggage and shoes were also gone, indicating she had left.

.

Considering the hurt I caused Evelyn today, it was a natural outcome.

It was expected, yet

I couldnt help feeling depressed.

Thud-

Haah.

I lay on the bed without getting dressed and covered my face with my hands.

Normally, it would be time to check the gallery for sense posts and block the flow, but I didnt want to do anything, gallery or otherwise.

HeeHeehee! Right~? Pretty~? Ian must be so happyto have a childhood friend as pretty as me?

I just desperately wanted to see Evelyn.

Swoosh- Swoosh-

Evelyn

As I browsed through the photos of Evelyn taken today, her name unconsciously slipped out of my mouth.

.

But, of course, the lack of response only made me feel worse.

Should I go back?

I had spent all my remaining allowance on accommodation for todays date, but

Staying here alone without Evelyn would only deepen my depression.

Thud-!!!

Just as I got up from the bed, suddenly the wardrobe shook violently and made a loud noise.

Evelyn?

Could she be hiding inside the wardrobe?

With a mix of hope and anxiety, I called out to Evelyn again.

Thud-!! Thud-!! Thud-!!

Instead of a reply, the wardrobe shook crazily again

Creak-! Boing! Boing!

Pong!

.?

E,EvelynIm a bunnyPong! Pong!

Evelyn, her face flushed red, dressed in a bunny girl outfit, popped out of the wardrobe.
