17. Its Not What It Looks Like.

"That?! Well you see.. she came in the room lastnight and she just attacked me. I tried pushing her off but I couldn't ."

Half lie... half truth...

"How could I have forgotten about that incident this morning?" She asks herself.

"I'm really sorry. Could we just forget about that?"

"No... we can't. Why should I even trust you that she attacked you? Do you really think that highly of yourself? That women would just sleep with you?"

"I can explain... we can go and ask her."

"Okay... I'll give you a chance. If she tells me that its not what I think it was and you were forced. I might think about forgiving you."

"Sure!... eh? I think she's right there..."

I look behind Clementine and indeed Keesha was walking towards us.

"There you can go ask her now."

(Friday, Tell Keesha what she need to say.)

|Aknowledged.|

I wave towards Keesha and she looks at us with a poker face. She arrived in front of us then stopped briefly before turning towards us. She crosses her arms then ask us.

"What is it?"

She also forgot about the incident this morning and acts very serious around Clementine.

"Good afternoon.. She would like to ask a question. About the incident this morning."

She suddenly turns around then covers her mouth with her hands. We heard a small gasp.

Then she turns again this time she has a smile on her face.

"Oh yes that? I won't make excuses.. I was in heat lastnight and I had my eyes on him. So I attacked him. I ask you to forget about that."

"If I don't? what would you do?"

The atmosphere is getting intense. Keesha just keeps quiet.

"Well Franz and I had a deal so I'll overlook it just this once. Get caught again and you will lose your job."

"I thank you for your kind consideration. If that is all, I have a business to attend to so if you would excuse me?"

"Okay, thanks for your time."

Keesha who knows she's in the wrong keeps a humble attitude. She then bows elegantly and leaves.

Meanwhile... I sit there quietly and think about how she accepted that quite easily.

"I guess you win?"

"Yeah I guess so... but seriously? just like that? She is a teacher, you know?"

"What? do you want me to make it a big deal? I don't really care. I'm just pissed off that you did it on my bed. Its not like she's hurting anyone by doing that. You enjoyed it anyway. If you didn't youre gay for sure. I won't benefit reporting her and her having sex doesn't concern me at all."

"Okay I'm sorry again. We cleaned your room by the way. We removed every trace of us being there."

"Okay... lets put that behind us now."

I look at her attraction gauge and its still on 15%. I activate "Grasp desire" and the gauge starts rising very slowly.

Looking at Clementine she doesn't look any different. She only has a faint red tint on her cheeks.

"Can I ask you a question?"

"Sure go ahead."

"If youre a Queen what are you doing here? This place is for teaching and training soldiers."

"I decided to go here because I wanted too. Its so uptight back at home. I just sit behind a desk doing paper work or sit on the throne from time to time. I wanted to escape from that."

"If your here.. then who's doing your work back at your home?"

"I left my most trusted subordinates to do it."

"Why did they allow you to go though? I'm Sure a lot opposed to it."

"Yes a lot did. They allowed me only if Alita was with me. Father was the one who said that seeing I would go regardless. I'm still young. I want to experience the world. Father steped down the throne immidiately and crowned me Queen after mother died."

"Oh I'm sorry."

"Don't worry about that. She was sick and couldn't recover. She always told me she doesn't have regrets thats why its alright. She also always told me to not think about her so much when she was dying and focus on my own happiness and the kingdoms."

"I'm sure you'll make your mother proud one day."

"Thank you." She thanks me and we face towards the hill.

We just sat there silently admiring the flowers. after about an hour her gauge reached 35% her face is getting redder and she's more relaxed. Her arousal becomes stronger as the guage goes higher because of "Grasp desire".

I nonchalantly placed my hands on her shoulders to activate "Flare touch". She was shocked to my sudden gesture but still kept composed.

"Lets go back to the dorms?"

I ask her.

"Okay sure. I was waiting for you to ask me."

We walk back towards our dorms. Just like lastnight she goes to my room and I go to hers.

"I hope you learned your lesson already."

She warns me before entering the room. I go in immidiately after she closed the door.

I walk towards her bed and lied down looking at the ceiling. The sun was beginning to set. The room gradually becomes darker. I close my eyes and fell asleep.

>Next day

As usual I wake up to Fridays alarm.

Clementine and Valerie enters in the room waiting for me to get ready for class.

After class we head towards the cafeteria to eat. I didn't eat yesterday so I asked Valerie to accompany me. Clementine follows us though.

After buying my meal Valerie and I sat down and Clementine joins us nonchalantly. We just let her do as she pleased.

While I was eating Ryan approached us.

"May I?" He asks if he can join our table.

"Aren't you with Miyuki? He hates Franz right?"

Clementine asks Ryan.

"Yeah I am and I know. I just have something to talk to him about."

"You don't have to sit down. Come with me I have to buy a drink." I say.

I stood up and Ryan follows me. Valerie and Clementine doesn't mind and continous talking to each other.

Ryan followed me and I could already guess what he wanted to talk about.
