I Reincarnated as the Villain in a Rom-Com but I’m Enjoying Youth with My Favorite Heroine - I Reincarnated as the Villain in a Rom-Com but I’m Enjoying Youth with My Favorite Heroine chapter 46

46. Camping in the Room③

While drinking coffee and chatting about trivial things, Mashiro and I were enjoying a calm and quiet space, snuggled together, spending a leisurely time with each other.

Inside the tent, Mashiro rested her head on my shoulder, and I gently stroked her hair. I touched her silky black hair slowly and carefully, as if combing it with my fingers.

Mashiro liked being petted like this.

Even now, she squinted her eyes happily and snuggled closer to me, as if to say she wanted more.

Seeing Mashiro like that was adorable, and a little bit of mischief sparked within me.

When I brushed my fingertips against her soft, white cheeks, Mashiro squirmed as if it tickled.

She gazed at me with dreamy eyes, letting out sweet breaths.

Her face, faintly illuminated by the lantern light, looked strangely alluring, causing my heart to flutter.

And unable to suppress the mischievous urge that continued to rise within me, I slid my hand from her cheek and tickled under her chin.

Then, Mashiro purred contentedly like a cat, seemingly pleased.

Defenseless and cute, Mashiro entrusted her body to me, allowing me to do as I pleased. It felt as if I could touch anywhere and be forgiven, and I reached out for her slightly flushed little ears.

When I lightly pinched her earlobe, Mashiro twitched slightly. Finding her reaction amusing, I repeated it several times, and she looked up at me with a frustrated expression.

“Today, Ryusuke, you’re being kind of unfair…”

“What do you mean?”

“Well, it’s rare for you to let me be so clingy like this… and you’re being kinder than usual, so it’s making my heart race.”

“You’re being more of a spoiled brat than usual too, Mashiro. You’re sticking to me more than normal.”

“…Today is special. It can’t be helped.”

“That’s true. So, shall we continue this special day for a little longer?”

Mashiro shyly fidgeted and nodded her head slightly.

I wanted to make today a special day, to create many happy summer memories.

It was probably because Mashiro felt the same way that she was being much more affectionate than usual.

The more I thought about cherishing this time, the stronger our feelings for each other grew.

Even the villain wants to enjoy youth.

That was the wish I had for this summer vacation.

Thanks to Mashiro, the first day had turned into a day wrapped in happiness.

Mashiro looked at me with her glistening eyes. Her blue eyes were moist and so beautiful that I felt like I could get lost in them.

“Hey, Ryusuke. Next, let’s go to the sea. I want to go to the summer festival and the fireworks display too.”

“Yeah. Summer has just begun, so let’s keep doing fun things from now on.”

“Uh-huh. I’m really looking forward to it.”

“Yeah, me too.”

Mashiro’s soft, gentle smile looked truly happy, and just watching her made me feel happy too.

I wanted to pamper the adorable Mashiro even more, so I gently embraced her body. Mashiro, wanting to be even more spoiled, clung tightly and curled up in my chest.

Her small body fit perfectly in my arms, and holding her like this made me realize just how tiny she really was.

Delicate and fragile, as if she might break, yet soft. As I softly stroked Mashiro, who was letting out sweet, heated breaths, I quietly closed my eyes.

(How calming…)

As I whispered this in my heart, I gradually began to feel sleepy.

Wrapped in Mashiro’s sweet scent, the gentle warmth and softness were so comforting that my consciousness felt like it might float away.

Noticing my state, I heard Mashiro’s small laughter, and it felt as if she was patting my back like a child being soothed.

“Ryusuke, are you sleepy?”

“Yeah, just a little.”

“It’s okay, you can sleep. I’ll put you to bed.”

“That sounds nice. But if we keep this up, it’ll be like I’m using Mashiro as a body pillow.”

“Use me as your body pillow. Actually, I want you to hold me even tighter.”

As Mashiro said such things while soothing me, a warmth spread deep in my chest.

And just as she suggested, I held her a little tighter in my arms.

Then, I slowly leaned back, lying down in the tent with Mashiro.

The sounds of the rain and wind that had been echoing around us finally began to settle, and only the gentle patter of raindrops against the window could be heard.

When I opened my heavy eyelids, I saw Mashiro’s happy expression right in front of me. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, her soft, moist lips formed a gentle curve, and her long eyelashes framed blue eyes that reflected only me.

Mashiro closed her eyes with a dreamy smile.

“Good night, Ryusuke.”

“Good night, Mashiro.”

We exchanged words as if whispering to each other.

Mashiro’s gentle breathing and the calm sound of the rain lured me into the world of dreams.

After hugging Mashiro tightly one last time, I slowly closed my eyelids.

It seemed like I would have a wonderful dream tonight.
