The Passive Income System

It took us some time, but by the time we got back to my apartment, it was 1 a.m. However, we were both still filled with energy. Now, we were sitting on my couch, wondering what to do next.

"Before anything, I need to bathe!" she declared, her voice firm but tinged with embarrassment.

"Okay, but you might have to use my towel. I don't have any spares, unfortunately."

"What were you planning to do with Itsuki?!"

"Have him air dry, of course!" I placed my hand over my chest and smugly confirmed.

"You really are brutal."

"Nope! Refuse to believe you! Do you want me to run your water? Oh, I do have spare clothes I can let you borrow, so don't worry about that at least."

She fidgeted with her hair and hid her face between her knees. I could barely make out what she said. "O-O-Oh my… mom psushsphs?!"

"What was that?"

"Nothing! I'll run the water and y-y-you go get the clothes!"

Da da da~

Bang~

Well, at least she didn't slam the door. I'll go get those clothes now. As much as I'd love to have a walk-in scene, I don't want her running away and being nervous the whole night. Not to mention, she does have to sleep here.

I went to my room, grabbed some summer P.E. clothes, and headed toward the bathroom.

Knock~ Knock~

"Sawako, I've got the clothes."

"T-That was fast!"

"I already knew what would work best. Common sense, really!"

Click~

She opened the door just enough to reach out her arm. Her pure, unblemished skin was visible, and I couldn't help but notice how smooth it looked. Just from her arm alone, I could tell how well she took care of herself—if her face wasn't proof enough.

"T-thank you."

I couldn't blame her for being shy. She was already a naturally shy person, and in a situation like this, it wasn't surprising she felt nervous.

I smiled gently and left. I needed to mentally prepare myself as well. I wasn't planning on doing anything, but the night was still young, so who knows?

{Sawako's POV}

GOD! That smile is so—gosh dang sexy! AH!!! Mom, why did you have to put these lewd thoughts in my head?!

I continued getting undressed while my brain spun in complete disarray. My mom couldn't have just let me be! I unhooked my bra and left it hanging where towels usually go. Since he didn't have a spare towel, I figured it'd be fine.

Splish splish splish~

The sound of running water helped calm my nerves. While it ran, I caught sight of myself in the mirror.

My jet-black hair and eyes didn't scare him, and he even treats me so gently—minus pinching my arm. I have to get him back for that! My breasts aren't that big, but not small either, so I hope he doesn't min—?! UGH! Who says we'll even get that far anyway?!

Eh? Did my butt get bigger?

Tap tap~

I jumped up and down, watching my reflection. It really did! I wonder if he's a butt guy or a thigh guy? Mom said he's probably a leg guy more than anything, but how could she even tell? I mean, he seemed to really enjoy my lap pillow, and I've felt his gaze linger on my butt for a second before. He's both a man and a gentleman; it must be tough for him.

Oops, the water!

I rushed to the nozzle and stopped the water before it could overflow. There was a side panel with a bunch of options, but I wasn't familiar with it, so I didn't dare mess with it. I might break something…

Splash~

"Haaaa~ This feels so nice!"

As the warmth of the water enveloped me, I tried to push my worries aside. Yet, I couldn't help but think about him. I wonder what he's doing right now. Knowing him, he's probably calm as can be, I thought with a small smile. The idea brought me a sense of comfort, even as my heart raced at the thought of spending the night at his place.

{Amane's POV}

Oh my god! I can't calm down! These damn hormones. In my last life, I had way better control over them, but not with this body! My lower half—or better known as "little brother"—is raging to get some action. It didn't help at all that the mere thought of her taking a bath—meaning she was completely naked—made it roar even harder!

"Quit sin, quit greed, quit lust, quit pride, quit gluttony. Quit sin, quit greed, quit lust..." I chanted a mantra in an attempt to calm myself down, and it worked... for a few minutes.

Should I take care of it quickly? No, no, that would be weird! Absolutely not! I'll try watching something instead...

I grabbed the remote for the TV and turned it on. The first channel to greet me...

"If you can eat all of these hot dogs, then you'll win a brand-new car!"

"Woowww~ I love hot dogs, so it shou—Beep?!"

I shut it off immediately. Why is there a damn near-naked woman talking about devouring hot dogs?! What kind of coincidence is this? Actually, what kind of game show even is that?!

"Hah~ Hah~" Deep breaths, Amane, deep breaths.

Finally managing to find some semblance of calm, I couldn't help but start thinking about this whole situation.

Why do I even think we'll get that far? It's foolish and completely immature, but I can't deny that the night really is still young. And with us both being... us... gosh.

I'm so sorry, neighbors. If she acts like I think she will, I'm not holding back! I'll try my best, though. How about that? Yeah, just let things flow naturally, Amane!

Half an hour passed, and my thoughts didn't stop once. She's simply too beautiful, and I enjoy spending time with her. If things really do turn out that way, then I really couldn't be bothered to stop. I'd gladly give her my first!

"A-Amane."

"AH!"

"E-Eh?"

"I'm sorry, I w-was too lost in my head."

"I'm sorry for scaring you," she said, bowing lightly. Wearing my clothes-a baggy white T-shirt and gym shorts-she was absolutely destructive to my remaining sanity! I could even catch a peek at her breasts.

My eyes were drawn naturally, but I corrected myself just as quickly. Meeting her gaze, I saw her face was filled with embarrassment, and her hands were fidgeting nervously with the shirt.

"I-I don't mind, you know! If you want, you can look!" She closed her eyes, her bold words contrasting with her shy demeanor.

My brain practically short-circuited. I blinked once, then twice, as her words settled in. "R-Re-I-Um!" Stuttering came naturally, this was my first time in such a situation in both lives!

She slowly opened her eyes, her gaze meeting mine this time. Her hands gripped the white shirt tightly. "Okay," she whispered, but I heard her loud and clear.

O-Okay to what?! Seriously?!

I didn't even have to ask before she answered for me.

Her voice was soft but steady, her usual nervousness momentarily replaced by quiet determination. "I-I-If it's you, I don't mind…"

God, gods, Buddha, goddesses, creators, destroyers! I thank all of you for this opportunity!

AN: I thought it weird if I suddenly jumped to a r-18 chapter so I added this. Hopefully you all don't mind it. 

AN 2: I'll be going ahead and implementing some changes. 

- Internal thoughts will be in italics (I know finally and yes, I'll go throughout the previous chapters and correct it) 

- If you haven't notice the system or any screen text (i.e phones) is in bold text but SFX and POV's will be in this category as well as italicized

- There is an Auxiliary chapter filled with character and this will be updated every ten chapters starting from chapter 20.

- I'm making a Auxiliary chapter filled with system items, statuses, etc. This will be updated every ten chapters as well.

AN 3: IF YOU DON'T LIKE R-18 CHAPTERS THEN PLEASE DON'T READ! YOU DON'T HAVE TO! THE ONLY THING THEY BRING IS SHOWING THE CHARACTER'S STRONGER CONNECTIONS AND SERVE NO ACTUAL PLOT-CHANGING INFORMATION!

AN 4: No chapter for January 3rd, I'm going to take this day to fix mistakes but if I get done before work then after I'll get y'all the chapter!
