Cote : I Just Want to Grant Your Wish!

The next morning, a phone ringing woke Kaoru Mitoma.

"I need to pee, Master."

On the other end of the line, Kushida Kikyo voice was devoid of any shame, as if she were simply making a routine report.

Kaoru Mitoma glanced at the time, it was exactly seven in the morning. The girl had evidently become his alarm clock.

During the previous deserted island exam, not hearing Kushida report felt somewhat weird.

Though he didn't know if she felt the same way, Kaoru Mitoma granted her request.

Soon after, he heard the faint sound of water and then quietly sat up in bed.

This cruise ship had nine floors, divided into five above ground and four below.

The first floor was for banquets, with a lounge and the rooftop had a pool, cafe and other facilities.

The third to fifth floors were the guest room areas.

Among them, the third floor was for boys and the fourth floor was for girls.

According to the school's arrangement, four students would share a room.

Thus, aside from Kaoru Mitoma himself, the room also housed three students from Class A: Machida Koji and Totsuka Yahiko, along with Hashimoto Masayoshi.

After Kaoru Mitoma got up, he noticed someone was already awake before him, Hashimoto Masayoshi was putting on his shoes, preparing to go out.

"Good morning, Mitoma."

Hashimoto Masayoshi greeted him casually "Want to go have breakfast together?"

Kaoru Mitoma could hear the slightly hurried breathing on the phone and couldn't help but smile.

"You go ahead; I need a little more time."

"Hahaha, seems like someone booked you faster than I did." Hashimoto Masayoshi had certainly noticed his phone call and was a bit curious about who had called him.

"The exam is over, we can enjoy this luxurious cruise trip now." Kaoru Mitoma listened to the intermittent sound of water on the other end, feeling a sense of silence.

"You're right, when I got up, Machida was already gone. He probably went out to enjoy the sunrise over the sea." Hashimoto Masayoshi made a knowing expression.

"You can see the sun rising from the horizon on the rooftop, I heard there's also an observation deck."

Kaoru Mitoma watched Hashimoto Masayoshi leave, then got out of bed to prepare for washing up.

"Can you just end the call?" Kushida sounded a bit annoyed.

Although she knew she couldn't be seen by anyone else, hearing that there were others present aside from Kaoru Mitoma made her feel like she was really peeing in public.

The shame she had finally managed to suppress surged back into her heart, making her blush as she hid in the bathroom.

"Sure, next time just send a video." Kaoru Mitoma said understandingly "I wouldn't mind seeing Kushida-san peeing..."

"Don't say that word! Or else, I'll kill you!" Kushida interrupted him angrily.

Beep—

Kaoru Mitoma blinked, surprised that the girl would hang up so suddenly.

Sometimes he really couldn't understand where their sense of shame lay.

Then, he washed up and prepared to put on his shoes.

"hehehe, hehehe..." Totsuka Yahiko was still lying on his bed, mumbling in his sleep.

This scene reminded Kaoru Mitoma of his college life and also brought to mind the dormitories of idols.

At that moment, his phone vibrated again.

'Mitoma-kun, want to have a meal together?'

Ichinose Honami sent a brief message without context, then seemed to feel it was inappropriate and added 'This is a request from your girlfriend' thing.

Whether it was Sakanagi Arisu or Ichinose Honami, they both got into character quite quickly when it came to role-playing.

'Wait for me.'

'Okay! I'll send you the location☆?(o*?ω?)'

The school's customized phone came with a gps feature, as long as they were friends, they could see each other's current locations.

This was the first time Kaoru Mitoma saw this feature and almost tossed his phone away.

However, since everyone was currently on the cruise ship, the gps feature was basically useless and they could only explain through text.

***

Before long, when he arrived at the dining hall, he could see groups of students discussing yesterday's deserted island exam while also worrying whether they would have another exam.

After all, according to the school's announcement, they would have to live on the cruise ship for a week before returning to ANHS.

It couldn't be possible that they would really enjoy a whole week of joyful times, right?

Kaoru Mitoma walked through the corridor and soon spotted Ichinose Honami sitting in a secluded spot, clearly for a private date as no one else was around.

"Good morning, Mitoma-kun." Ichinose Honami flashed a sweet smile, like a girl who had just fallen in love.

"Ichinose, you look quite cute today."

Kaoru Mitoma noticed her change; although she was still wearing her school uniform, her hair was meticulously styled and she seemed to have put on light makeup, making her appear even more pure and adorable.

Ichinose Honami lips curled up slightly, a bit shy as she said.

"Ehehe, Mitoma-kun, your observation skills are really great!"

However, when she saw Kaoru Mitoma sitting across from her, her smile unintentionally froze.

"Actually, you don't need to be so nice, I'm not some great demon lord." Kaoru Mitoma picked up the menu.

"What do you want to eat?"

Ichinose Honami was silent for a moment. "I've never been in a relationship before, isn't that how it is in dramas?"

"Dramas are dramas; reality is reality. Don't you think it's disgusting to smile at someone who poses a threat to you?"

"It is a bit disgusting."

"So don't be so reserved; you're my girlfriend now, just be yourself."

Ichinose Honami nodded, somewhat confused, and then heard him ask.

"Can we eat something light?"

"Anything is fine, it's not my period right now."

Kaoru Mitoma silently looked at her; she was also slow to realize, awkwardly lowering her head, pretending to study the water cup beside her.

After ordering breakfast, the atmosphere between the two fell into a silent.

Ichinose Honami would glance at him, then at her fingers, feeling anxious and hesitant, unsure how to interact with him.

"You called me..."

"Do you want to go get your nails done together?"

They both spoke almost simultaneously, but Kaoru Mitoma quickly shut his mouth.

"I heard there's nail service here, Yuki-chan and the others said the service is amazing, and the results look great." Ichinose Honami lowered her voice, blushing, "I think there's also a spa, why don't we try it out?"

Normally, this would be a typical request from a girlfriend, but coming from her, Kaoru Mitoma found it strange.

Because a spa requires undressing.
