Episode 22 – Bathing with FiancĂ©e [First Time]
Arisa was wearing a white bikini.
It had a simple design with no particular decoration.
It was a variation of the black bikini she had worn at the pool before.
The design was slightly different, but the level of exposure was not that different.
“
.Um, Yuzuru-san?”
“A-ah
 I’m sorry.”
Yuzuru came to his senses when she called out to him as she looked away in embarrassment.
Then, scratching his cheek, he said as if to make an excuse.
“I thought you’d be wearing a swimming suit.”
It was a little surprising that she had brought a bikini.
As Yuzuru is a little surprised, Arisa said with a bashful smile.
“I figured I can’t wash properly in a swimming suit
 and it would not be hygienic to take a bath in a swimsuit you used in the pool.”
“That’s
 well, I see.”
But that’s no reason to have brought a white bikini.

However, Yuzuru decided to accept that being prepared is the key to being well.
“Then, I’m going in first.”
“Yes.”
For the time being, Yuzuru decided to take a dip in the hot tub first.
She washed her body quickly.
But if she took too much time, Yuzuru would get tired first.
Considering the fact that she would have to wash again later, she just needed to be clean enough not to contaminate the bathtub.
After cleaning off the dirt with a light wash of water, Arisa stood up with a determined look on her face.
“Then
if you’ll excuse me.”
After saying that, she lifted her legs and put her feet in the tub.
Then she soaked herself in the tub, facing Yuzuru.
“
”
“
”
Silence prevailed in the room.
The two of them turned their heads and tried not to look at the other’s face.
(
This is bad, This is really bad.)
At the pool, although he had felt embarrassed, it was never so much that he couldn’t look directly at the other person.
But now, Yuzuru just couldn’t look at Arisa.
That’s partly because Arisa is wearing a white bikini, which has more exposure than a swimming suit

(Two people by themselves in a closed room is not a good idea
)
Having only two people, Yuzuru and Arisa, in a small space was not a good idea.
Plus, they were within touching distance of each other if they reached out.
“U-um, Yuzuru-san.”
It was Arisa who called out to him first.
Yuzuru raised his head in a snap.
Arisa said to Yuzuru, her skin flushing bright red.
“Um
 How’s this swimsuit?”
“U, uh
”
Upon hearing this, Yuzuru turned his gaze to Arisa’s body.
Her pure white skin was visible in the clear water.
Her limbs are stretchy and undulating.
The only thing hiding her large breasts and lower abdomen was a white piece of cloth.
The white cloth has absorbed the water and is tightly attached to Arisa’s skin
 allowing the healthy skin with good blood circulation to show through slightly.
It was not like she chose white with any particular objective.
“I-it looks good on you
 I think. It looks cute and neat.”
“I see. I’m glad to hear that.”
Arisa smiled a little shyly, but happily, at Yuzuru’s words.
Apparently, she hadn’t noticed that her body was a little bit see-through.
It seemed that she didn’t choose white specifically for this purpose.
Fortunately, the parts that should never be visible were not exposed.
It is natural because it was a proper swimsuit and not a joke item.
Perhaps if one wears undershorts or something similar, preventing transparency will not be a problem.

.Although it seemed that she didn’t wear them this time.
“Which one do you like better, Yuzuru-san?”
“
Which one?”
“You know
. compared to the one I wore to the pool during summer vacation.”
In other words, black bikini or white bikini.
The question was, which would he prefer?
“Well
 Let’s see
.”
Black bikinis are sexy and mature, while white bikinis are innocent and cute.
Both of them were hard to dismiss, but the one that looks best on Arisa was

“Black, maybe?”
“He~h
 Why?”
“Because you’re fair-skinned and beautiful, so I think black would be more appealing.”
Arisa’s skin and flaxen hair stood out.
“I see
 So, the next time we go out to play in the pool, should I wear black?”
“No
 You don’t have to match my taste. Well, I want to see your all kinds of styles.”
Arisa lowered her eyes in embarrassment at Yuzuru’s words.
“I-I see
”
Then Arisa leaned forward slightly.
Their skin touched slightly and Yuzuru’s heart started to pound.
“You were complimenting 
my skin before. Do you like my skin.?”
Arisa asked, her eyes moist and looking up.
There seemed to be a heat in her expression that was not caused by embarrassment or a rise in body temperature.
“Of course
 I love everything about you.”
“Everything
”
Yuzuru’s words made Arisa’s face even redder.
Then, like making a supplication, she asked Yuzuru.
“
Do you want to touch me?”
“Is that okay?”
At Arisa’s unexpected suggestion, Yuzuru couldn’t help but exclaim out loud.
In response to his question, Arisa nodded her head.
“Well
 um, not any weird places though. If it’s just shoulders
 It’s fine.”
After being told that, Yuzuru turned his gaze to Arisa’s shoulder.
It was a slender girl’s shoulder, white as white porcelain, smooth and beautifully curved.
The only thing that hid it slightly was the bikini straps that hung over her shoulders.
Yuzuru reached out and touched her shoulder.
Arisa immediately shrunk back and looked at Yuzuru.
“Um, how is it?”
“
smooth.”
Whether it was because of the hot water or sweat, the wet shoulder was smooth and very comfortable to touch.
Yuzuru touched it a little, then pulled his hands away, raising them.
“
are you done with it already?”
“No, well
”
Of course, he wanted to keep touching it

“Well, I don’t think I can hold my reason for long.”
Yuzuru said in a mumble.
Arisa gave a small laugh, perhaps thinking he was joking.
“Geez, can’t be helped huh
”
Absent-mindedly, Arisa’s gaze lowered.
“Kyaahh!”
She screamed and covered her face with her hands.
“W-what are you thinking about?”
“What, you ask
 about you, I guess?”
“Please don’t turn it on me like that!!”
Arisa exclaimed, her eyes peeking out from between her fingers.
TN: Well
 it’s a natural reaction which he anticipated before
