Virtual Alpha and I - Chapter 41-2
Extra Chapter – Drunken Doggy (first part)
—As I thought, he’s still… somewhat different than usual.
Once we arrived in the living room I was released from his arms, but Yuugo wouldn’t leave my side.
Even though we were inside the house, one of his hands kept holding mine and he stared at my face silently.
It was better than having my presence ignored like earlier, but because he remained as expressionless as ever, it made me not sure how to react.
—What should I do now?
I felt like averting my gaze from him would make him grumpy, so I tried looking back at his face as well.
I had gotten used to his handsome face better than before… I think.
Though, his sudden smile was still too dazzling for me to look at directly.
“Sou.”
“Hm? What’s wrong?”
He suddenly called my name.
I think this was the first time he called my name since he got home.
Even though it was just a trivial thing like that, it made me so happy that I squeezed Yuugo’s hand that was holding mine. When I couldn’t hold back and broke into a smile, Yuugo’s lips brushed my cheek.
He kissed me again and again as if he was being playful with me.
“…Hey, Sou. Take off my clothes.”
—Hmm?
For a moment, I didn’t understand what he was saying.
When I stared back at him with a puzzled face, he brought his face closer and whispered “take off my clothes” again. He also dropped a kiss on the tip of my nose.
Finally realizing what he meant, I hurriedly shook my head to the side.
Looking at my reaction, Yuugo pouted his lips in frustration.
“You won’t?”
“I mean, just what are you talking about?”
“…Then, take off the necktie at least.”
I think he could understand what I said— but, he still felt somewhat different than the usual Yuugo.
He spoke more slowly than usual, and above all, the things that he said were even more incomprehensible than usual.
This exactly felt like a drunk person.
“That’s no good too?”
“Alright… just the necktie, okay?”
It was meaningless to face a drunk person seriously— The one who told me that was my mom, who always had to deal with my drunk father.
My father was also quite the interactive drunk.
Usually, he wasn’t the type to start a conversation, but when he was drunk he instantly started to talk with the people around him.
That’s right, it was just like Yuugo now.
—No, I guess it’s a bit different for Yuugo.
He didn’t really talk much with Yanagi, I wonder if he became like this only with me.
Well, if that was the case, then I guess it was pretty cute just like a clingy dog…?
I untied our linked hands and brought my fingertips up to Yuugo’s neck. It was my first time taking off someone else’s necktie like this, it somewhat made me unnecessarily nervous.
I put my hand to the knot while trying not to look at Yuugo’s face which had grown closer.
I pulled out one side of the tie through the knot and the knot naturally unraveled.
—Ah, Yuugo’s scent.
The scent of pheromone wafted from the necktie that was taken off.
The scent wasn’t that strong, but my instinct reacted strongly to the scent of my pair that I hadn’t smelled for a week. While desperately holding back the urge to sniff it close to my nose, I hung the necktie on the back of a nearby chair.
“…There, this is enough, right?”
“Yeah.”
I thought he would ask me to do more troublesome things, but he was surprisingly obedient.
As promised, he started to take off the rest of his clothes by himself.
I felt somewhat uncomfortable staring at him, so I sat down on my usual seat on the living room sofa to forcefully distract my attention from Yuugo.
When I was playing with my phone, not really doing anything in particular, Yuugo, who had finished taking off his suit jacket came in front of me while loosening his shirt collar.
“Why are you moving away from me?”
“Not really, it’s just there’s no need to watch you so closely.”
“You need to. I’m lonely.”
This time, he became even clingier to me.
He sat next to me and pressed his body against mine while sniffing the scent of my head.
“Wait, stop it.”
“No. I want to sniff your scent.”
I had taken a shower earlier, so I shouldn’t smell bad.
I was feeling extremely embarrassed, but if I resist him any further I felt like it would be troublesome. I decided to just accept Yuugo’s drunken behavior.
—He’s really like a doggy.
If I thought of it as dealing with a large dog, I think I could do it.
While I was secretly enjoying the faint Yuugo’s scent that drifted, after a while, Yuugo slowly pulled his body away from me, as if he was finally satisfied.
“Sou, I’m thirsty.”
“If you’re okay with the one I drank, there’s a water bottle over there—”
“Give it to me.”
—Hey!!
This drunk might be more annoying than I imagined— I mean, he just did whatever he wanted.
But it was unusual to see him being like this… When I thought about it that way. I felt like I could accompany him for a little while.
I grabbed the water bottle that I had drunk from on top of the table.
I opened the lid and tried to bring it to Yuugo’s mouth, but before it could reach his lips, he suddenly evaded it.
“Wai-, it’ll spill if you move.”
“No.”
“…What? What do you mean no?”
“This.”
Yuugo’s fingertips touched my lips limply.
“—make me drink it from your mouth.”
