Chapter 42 – Lili fell in love with me.
Chapter 42 – Lili fell in love with me.
We went to my room, and I grabbed a second blank notebook to write the second volume. I need to get more paper if I want to continue writing, and my pen won't last forever, either.
I need writing materials. If I ask that old lady for help, I can get them. I'll go there next week to check how sales are going and talk to her about it.
"Are you going to start writing already?"
I was sitting on the bed, leaning against the headboard. Lili was sitting on the chair.
"I'll start the second book," I replied. But then I remembered Lili hadn't finished reading the first volume. "Oh, right. You didn't finish reading the first volume. You fell asleep," I laughed.
Lili's face turned red as she remembered the night we spent together.
"You don't need to worry. You can keep writing."
"Tell me where you stopped reading, and I'll tell the rest. The whole story is in my head. Telling it to you will be easy!"
"Alright..."
Lili told me where she had stopped, and I described in detail the entire ending of the first volume of Re: Zero. When I finished, Lili couldn't help but get excited about the second volume.
She sat beside me, and I started writing. As I wrote, she got more and more excited and engrossed in the story. She also began to get closer and closer to me.
Before she even realized it, Lili leaned against me, our shoulders touching. After, she rested her head on my shoulder.
I kept writing while she kept reading. I made no mistakes, so I didn't have to tear out any pages. I wrote five pages in total. I wrote it faster than before.
It was like I had gained a writing skill, and it was leveling up. I'm getting better at this.
"Are you done already? I was enjoying this~~," Lili said. Then, she finally noticed we were sitting on the bed like a couple. "Ah, I'm sorry!" Lili jumped off the bed, but I grabbed her hand.
"Don't worry, let's stay like this a little longer."
"Are you going to keep writing?" she asked, embarrassed.
"How long have we been like this?" I didn't know how much time had passed, but it wasn't night yet. Maybe only an hour had passed.
"I don't know either... but what do you mean by that?" Lili asked.
Hm? Is she referring to what I said before?
"It's just that I like being like this with you. Your ears are fluffy, and I feel very comfortable."
"Idiot, don't say things like that!"
"I'm telling the truth~~ Come on, sit here. I'll keep writing." I pulled Lili onto the bed, and she sat beside me. Contrary to what I expected, Lili sat very close.
She rests her head on my shoulder again. Her ears are twitching. She's pretty nervous.
"Are you nervous?"
"A little... I've never been this close to a man before. It's my first time."
"It's not bad, right? It's also the first time I'm this close to a girl like you."
"What do you mean, a girl like me?"
"A girl as cute as you," I smiled at Lili.
"..."
She stayed silent and didn't say anything.
Then, a system notification arrived.
[Lili is in the process of falling in love with you!]
Will the system even notify me about this? That's great.
So, I should keep complimenting her and maintaining physical contact.
And that's what I did.
Hours passed, I wrote many pages of my story, and night was approaching. I only paused my writing to get food for Lili and me.
We talked a lot and had fun.
It is incredibly comforting to be with Lili like this. It had been a long time since I felt so happy.
Not even when I slept with Aisha or all those other women.
Then, I looked at Lili. We were still sitting on the bed, with Lili by my side and her head on my shoulder...
I finally said:
"Lili, I've started to like you a lot."
That was enough to make Lili's heart race.
"Eh?" She removed her head from my shoulder and looked into my eyes. I couldn't say anything else, waiting for her to say something. However, Lili remained silent. She was so shocked that her face didn't even turn red.
Are her feelings a mess right now?
I admit I'm a bit embarrassed. It's the first time I've told someone this so directly.
I'm not in love with Lili, but it's a fact that it's nice to talk to her and be with her. I'll probably start falling for her the more we interact, but I don't want to think about that now.
I want to complete the mission.
And finally, the long-awaited system message appeared.
[Lili is in love with you!]
[You completed the daily mission!]
[You received 10 points!]
'10 points, this will be very helpful. Now I have 34 points to distribute.'
"What are you saying? Don't say things like that! I should go home now. Thank you for letting me stay here for so long. It was fun."
Lili jumped off the bed to leave, but I grabbed her hand.
"I'm serious. You can come back here whenever you want. I'll welcome you whenever you want. I love to hear your opinion on what I'm writing."
"..." Lili avoided my gaze, embarrassed. But she answered me. "Okay, I'll come back. But don't say weird things."
After that, I walked Lili out, and we said goodbye.
'Will she come back tomorrow? I want to take the opportunity to try adding her to my harem.
