Ch. 160 I’ll Try To Kiss Somewhere New Every Day (2)

Louise walked out of her Advanced Math class. Advanced Math was another unpopular subject that could barely muster the minimum number of students each year, and the reason was simple: That was because the subject was called Advanced Math. Any student who heard such a name would run the other direction, but Louise had a different idea.

She applied for the class with the shining spirit of her ancestors behind her, but it turned out it was a very stupid thing to do.

The only other students who applied for the class were those who were predispositioned to admire the name “Advanced Math.” They sought to catalog nature and were explorers of truth. Their eyes even glistened in happiness at the word “truth.” Only problem was, Louise became depressed because she couldn’t understand their world.

Louise recently recalled Dean cutting the vertices of a triangle with scissors to prove that the sum of the angles was 180 degrees. She should have taken that class! Not the class that finds the smallest sum of the distances from three vertices inside a triangle!

Louise escaped from the sea of facts and proofs and went into the student council room, but there was only a single bag and coat inside. Everyone else seemed to have gone out.

At the student council—no, in the whole Academy—there was only one person who wore that kind of coat on a cold day.

Should she prove it? Louise went back to the door and looked out the hallway for a moment. There was no one there. She closed the door, then carefully picked up the coat on Ian’s chair.

Obviously tall people had long coats.

Louise, who was definitely not a pervert, buried her nose into the material. She inhaled deeply. Was it cologne? If it wasn’t…

Louise was not a pervert, but she imagined where the smell came from.

She quickly put her hand into the coat. It was warm, but no warmer than any other winter coat.

Louise felt the need to try on Ian’s clothes, although she was not a pervert. She pushed her arms into the sleeves. It was baggy on her, and her hands didn’t even reach the cuffs.

Louise suddenly froze. She turned her stiff neck, and saw Ian leaning against the open door of the storage room.

Louise let go of his coat off in a panic. The coat was not magical. All that was proven was Louise’s perverted taste.

Louise quickly diverted the topic, and fortunately he went along.

Oh, so that’s why he removed his coat. There was a lot of dust in the corner of the warehouse.

Louise followed Ian and pulled off her coat as well. As she entered the storage room, she saw that several boxes were already piled near the entrance.

Louis carefully picked up a box of ink bottles, and the glass clattered inside.

Louise didn’t really care about the exams themselves. She realized how quickly time passed from the exams to the results. Maybe that’s how it would go this time as well, and when she woke up, it would all be over. And after that…

Why was he asking her that all of a sudden?

A smile came over Louise’s face, and Ian patted her pale cheek.

He probably meant the time until graduation. Louise’s brow furrowed.

Ian tugged Louise close to him, strong enough to make her breath catch.

The one-year period that hadn’t started still seemed so far.

She gave a little consolation within the embrace of his arms.

That was what Louise had once said a long time ago. She found it amusing he remembered, and she gave a chuckle.

His hands drifted upwards from her waist before resting on her upper back. When Louis looked up, his lips brushed her cheek. His hot breath tickled her ears, and she gripped him with trembling hands. He bent his head a little deeper, and his hot mouth touched her neckline.

She tried to be casual, but he turned his head straight and grinned.

He looked at her expectantly.

He asked back with an innocent smile.
