"﻿This is the last straw!" "you worthless bastard!" "﻿I can't believe you wrote another of these stupid books!" "﻿When the hell did I ever say anything like" "﻿Sto-Stop... feels like it-s melting.." "make me wet and dirty all over..." ?" "!" "you little...?" "!" "psyche!" "I forgot he's always in the worst mood when he gets up!" "﻿Excuse-me for interrupting your slumber... ﻿I'm sorry!" "I'm so sorry!" "﻿Why do you hate it so much when I write about you?" "﻿Are you an idiot?" "!" "It's obvious!" "﻿You not only use me as a character without permission ﻿you have me doing all these weird things... where are you putting your hands?" "!" "Stop!" "see?" "There's someone at the door!" "﻿Leave 'em there." "﻿Bu-But... ﻿Good morning!" "I'm Aikawa from Marukawa Publishing!" "I trust you have the manuscript ready for me?" "﻿I've got-ajittle something for you;'Misaki:kun." "﻿It's that Kuma cream puff that's been so popular recently." "﻿Wow!" "Thanfoyou so much!" "too!" "﻿Really?" "I'm so glad you liked them!" "why did you come here?" "I wouldn't have to come here!" "since I got to meet Misaki-kun." "﻿I've talked to you so many times on the phone^it ﻿doesn't feel like we're meeting for the first time." "﻿Why the hell wereyou talking to Misaki?" "and even dares to pretend he's not at home!" "just about ready." "Aikawa-san..." "I'll take a look." "﻿She's much prettier than'l had imagined." "﻿Great}'I'll take a look." "﻿She's much prettier than I had imagined." "I'd guess." "﻿ihe fact that she can talk to him like that is pretty amazing." "there aren't many people ﻿that he's open and comfortable with." "﻿It's kind of... surprising." "I can'obelieve that ﻿was the first thing she saw of me... ﻿Misaki." "﻿The water's boiling." "﻿Uh-oh!" "okay?" "﻿I'm going to be late for class!" "see you!" "﻿Be careful." "﻿Be back later." "﻿Weird!" "I've been feeling totally weirdilately!" "﻿One touch from Usagi-san and my heart starts pounding!" "?" "an idiot?" "Why should being touched by a guy make me." "﻿Is it." "﻿because I had sex with him?" "I didn't have any control over it!" "there's no way!" "﻿A femaleieditor?" "﻿Yeah" "﻿Does she always come by?" "﻿Probably." "﻿She tends to drop by when I'm not ﻿around to pick up his manuscripts." "too." "what?" "She just lets herself in to the house?" "seems like he's given-her a key." "﻿Huh?" "Is that normal?" "too?" "﻿I'm not sure" "I see." "﻿Usami-san's going out with that woman." "﻿What?" "!" "No way!" "﻿Isn't that the logical conclusion?" "﻿He wouldn't give a key to just any woman." "that's impossible!" "﻿How do you know?" "﻿Because... ﻿Because?" "﻿Your ramen's getting soggy." "﻿There's just no way." "lives in ﻿a ridiculously huge house and has a decent-looking face." "﻿iHe's probably popular with the ladies?" "but... ﻿But he said all that weird crap about being in love with me." "﻿Just because he gave her a key doesn't mean ﻿you should assume the simplest explanation." "﻿Why am I getting so worked up about this?" "wait up!" "﻿One last fish cake." "too." "just come over to my place." "so we'll have to sleep together." "﻿Senpai!" "﻿I'm definitely weird." "﻿Being touched by Senpai doesn't make me feel anything at all... ﻿Why is it only Usagi-san...?" "welcome back!" "﻿Did your meeting take this whole time?" "too." "﻿That must have been tough!" "﻿You don't know what I had to go through ﻿to get him to agree to the next job!" "you know?" "all you've ﻿got to worry about is him breaking the deadline!" "﻿It looks like you're still having fun." "you could say that" "﻿I'll do whatever it takes to get him to do a good job for us." "before I'm his editor." "I'm simply one of his fans!" "understands Usagi-san." "﻿She trusts him." "﻿Then what about Usagi-san...?" "﻿I'm back!" "what's all this?" "What's going on?" "﻿Welcome back." "and I ended up with all this!" "﻿I see." "﻿'When the Donut Hole Is Filled." "﻿what kind of job are we talking about here?" "﻿Misaki." "there we go." "﻿I ran into Aikawa-san downstairs just now." "really." "isn't she." "﻿Is she?" "﻿H-Have you two known each other long?" "You seem really close." "﻿Not really." "so do you always give your editors a house key?" "﻿Of course not Aikawa's the only one." "﻿O-Oh?" "Why?" "﻿Why is Aikawa the only one?" "﻿What?" "!" "﻿You can't!" "﻿Forget about her!" "﻿She's a demon with a woman's face!" "and she'll devour you intone fell swoop!" "﻿Wha-WKat the hell?" "﻿She's a nice person!" "and she always brings tasty treats with her." "﻿Just give up on her." "It can only go4badly." "﻿Why are you saying that?" "Why are you being so insistent?" "﻿Is he actually in love with her...?" "﻿Misaki." "Usagi-san!" "You're hurting me!" "﻿You've been avoiding me recently." "﻿You're just imagining things!" "﻿Usagi-san!" "stop touching me!" "﻿Please!" "﻿How do you actually feel about me?" "﻿Why are you asking all of a sudden...?" "﻿I never quite got around to asking you that night" "﻿It's about time I get an answer." "how wouldtl... ﻿I-l don't know" "﻿Sorry." "﻿I got ahead of myself." "﻿I honestly thought my heart was going to break in two" "﻿This is... really serious." "﻿I'm back!" "﻿Welcome home." "Misaki-kun." "﻿Hope you don't mind my dropping by." "not at all." "Usagi-san?" "﻿Work." "﻿I have an interview with a certain big-shot author at the Hilton." "﻿Where's that?" "you should come next time." "right!" "I have a present for you!" "﻿Today is Belgian chocolates." "I hope you like them!" "﻿Thank you..." "I think I'll be eating out tonight." "Can you eat dinner alone?" "sure." "the taxi's here!" "﻿Coming." "then." "﻿Take care." "Sensei!" "Your tie's crooked." "﻿Stop that!" "You can't!" "﻿Get your hands off him!" "﻿Don't let her touch you!" "﻿The only one who can touch you is." "﻿Misaki?" "What-s wrong?" "﻿Nothing." "﻿Touch me" "﻿Like you always do" "﻿hurry!" "﻿Sensei!" "We have to go!" "﻿He's very particular about people being on time." "﻿I'll see you later." "﻿Take care... jit's raining!" "﻿The reason my heart's pounding and my stomach's ﻿churning and I feel so irritated is because..." "I thought ﻿they looked really good together." "I really am in love with Usagi-san...?" "that was so lame!" "﻿I was totally a lovestruck-maiden just now!" "That's so freaky!" "﻿Shit!" "Why the hell should I have to kill ﻿myself over every little thing he does?" "!" "﻿Time to eat off this stress!" "off... these had liquor in them." "﻿A shirt?" "﻿It smells like Usagi-san..." "﻿Misaki?" "﻿Misaki!" "﻿Usagi-san's voice...?" "you're going to catch a cold." "﻿Oh!" "Welcome back!" "I've still got homework to do." "﻿What?" "wait!" "This doesn't mean anything!" "and I got drunk off those chocolates so... let go of me!" "﻿I said let go!" "Usagi-san!" "wait a... ﻿Time's up." "﻿What?" "!" "but this is it you've ﻿got to be doing it on purpose." "I was just.." "﻿Stop!" "Don't touch me!" "﻿What the hell are you doing?" "!" "You already have Aikawa-san!" "quit messing with me!" "I don't get it anymore!" "I feel weird every time you touch me!" "she's such a nice person ﻿but it just pisses me off whenever she's around you!" "﻿I can't deal with this!" "you bastard!" "﻿It's because you're in love with me." "﻿excuse me?" "﻿You start thinking the stupidest things when I leave you alone." "﻿What the hell made you think something ﻿was going on between me and her?" "I mean... ﻿Damn it I get so irritated around you." "I lose my control." "and it pisses me off!" "﻿I love you." "﻿Just give up." "﻿I told you... ﻿your time's up." "﻿How many times does this guy plan to stop my heart?" "﻿What's wrong?" "﻿Younhands are cold... ﻿Then melt them with your heat" "﻿Usagi-san... ﻿Yes?" "﻿I love you... maybe." "definitely." "﻿I can't stand it" "﻿So'here's the'story behihd*whyJlrgave)hena;key." "﻿and Aikawa was my first editor." "﻿I was working on a job for a serial magazine ﻿and I completely missed the deadline. they finally lost all contact with me." "﻿Aikawa and the editor-in-chief panicked and" "﻿Usami-sensei isn't picking up the phone!" "﻿It can't be...!" "﻿they got the manager to open the door and barged:inside." "﻿Usami-sensei!" "hang in there!" "call an ambulance!" "where's the next installment?" "I ﻿need the next installment of the story!" "you piece of shit!" "﻿Aikawa-kun...!" "and my instincts told ﻿me I was in mortal danger of being murdered by her" "﻿so I decided to just give her a key." "﻿Meet your flicking' deadlines!" "﻿I'll tell you one more thing." "All those kinky plays ﻿that "Akihiko" does to "Misaki" in the novel" "﻿they're Aikawa's personal requests." "﻿Are you serious?" "!" "﻿■hat's why I told you to forget about her!" "﻿Hey... you want me to get the key back from her?" "﻿No." "I don't want to do anything to intrude in your work." "﻿I still feel awkward about having sex with him the low voice he whispers in... ﻿I think the truth is probably that I'm madly in... ﻿Tell me." "﻿Tell you what?" "﻿The words you told-me at the end last night." "I can't quite seem to remember." "﻿What?" "﻿Tell me and I'll keep going." "﻿What?" "!" "you idiot!" "﻿Just because I did you a favor and didn't fight back... let go of me!" "﻿You stupid little—hey!" "yeah." "﻿There's no way I could just say "I love you" that easily." "﻿Not since I learned that those three little words ﻿are so full of these precious feelings... right Aikawa-san?" "﻿That's right." "﻿Then why.." "﻿Why boys'love?" "Because I like it!" "﻿I'm doing this as a hobby as well as for a profit" "﻿Hobby"...?"
