Chapter 47 – Excuse

n…, my head, hurts…

I think it’s, morning.

I think that, because I can feel the light though my eyes even though it’s closed.

Although it’s morning, I don’t feel that usual refreshing feeling through my head.

I feel my body is sluggish as well.

I don’t want to get up yet…

The reason why I think that, could it be because of the warmth within my arms?

The warmth, is trying to escape from within my arms.

「Noo, you mustn’t…」

My voice unconsciously leaked out as I clung onto the warmth.

Was it because my feelings of not wanting to let go was conveyed? The warmth stopped any further movements.

Being satisfied, I once again part with my consciousness.

gacha

「Good morning, Sakura-sama. It’s, morning…?」

The moment I was about to let go of my consciousness, I heard a woman’s voice.

「Ara ara ara? Well well well!」

Sleepy…

「No, this is! It’s not what you think!」

Next was a male’s voice.

Again, the warmth between my arms tried to escape.

「Ah, nooo…」

When I tightly clung onto it so it wouldn’t escape, its movements stopped once again.

「Ara ara, oh Sakura-sama. So cute being half asleep. It must also be difficult for Your Highness wa ne.」

「If you think that, then please do something…」

nu… it’s, noisy…

「ufufu, it wouldn’t be good if I don’t inform the Queen and Her Highness the Princess about this wa.」

「W-Wait! Don’t make this any more complicated!」

What…? So noisy in the morning…

「n…, fwuaa~…」

I stretched my body as I restlessly got up while rubbing my eyes.

「That’s no good, Sakura-sama!」

Something coiled around my body.

「mmm…..goodー, moorning.」

My eyes are still bleary.

「Well, Sakura-sama? I will be changing your clothes ne~. Ah, Your Highness, please leave ne.」

Who…? Highness…?

As soon as I heard that voice, my body was shifted around.

Soon after I relaxed my mind, I seemed to have fallen asleep.

When I finally woke up, it was when my face was being washed as I let out my voice.1

「hya, cold.」

What? What is it now?

When I looked around restlessly from being surprised, I saw Chiffon-san giggling and smiling.

What happened just now??

Chiffon-san holds out a towel towards me, who couldn’t grasp the situation.

For the time being, I wiped my face with the towel that was handed over.

「A half asleep Sakura-sama, was also very cute you know. I was able to see a valuable thing.」

When refreshed myself by drinking some water, my head was finally cleared.

The light headache I was feeling had also settled before I realized.

When I looked at Chiffon-san while floating a ? mark above my head, the door was opened and the Prince entered.

「Oh? Prince, good morning. Why is your appearance like that?」

The Prince’s appearance, in underclothes shall I say? He’s wearing something like a T-shirt, it’s in a terribly rough shape. Because his pants are neatly worn on, I have all the more feeling of something being wrong.

「Even though you were the one who stripped me. Don’t you remember?」

I did? When? What does he mean by ‘don’t remember’?

「Sakura, yesterday, you collapsed after drinking alcohol at the ball.」

Yesterday…… ball…… alcohol…?

Ah…

「That’s right! Prince, do you have an explanation? Such as the matter of Princess Aria!」

I intended to hear about Princess Aria’s matter yesterday, so… So…?

「First of all, put on some clothes.」

The Prince gave me the coat that was on a chair, I then wore it.

 

 

「So? Don’t you have various things you want to tell me?」

The Prince and I were sat on either side of the table.

Chiffon-san was standing beside the table while smiling.

「Firstly, why did Princess Aria turn up yesterday at the ball, please explain.」

The Prince took a large breath, with an expression of a prisoner before their death sentence, he began talking.

「……I’m sorry. That was, an order from my mother and Aria you see…」

Ha? Why would the Queen and Princess Aria do such a thing…?

「Recently, I’ve always gone to Sakura’s place right? When my mother and the others knew about it, they started saying they wanted to meet Sakura. I refused every time but… With the matter of me not having a fiancée, I was told to bring you along to yesterday’s ball as my partner. Of course, I declined it but… For some reason my father was also interested, I was eventually told to choose either selecting a fiancée, or bringing Sakura along… The reason for requesting Sakura was also thought up by my mother.」

By meeting me, what did they intend to do?

No, leaving that aside.

To begin with, should the Prince not have come over every day for a meal?

If that didn’t happen, the Queen and the others shouldn’t have thought up something like this.

「I understand the reason. However, in the first place, if the Prince didn’t come over to have a meal every day, this wouldn’t have happened right? Could you stop from now on?」

Being dragged into such a troublesome matter, please let this be the last time.

「Eh? No, I would be a problem! Then my reason for meeting Sakura will…」

「Ha? What would be a problem? Please say it again since I couldn’t hear it well.」

The Prince starts talking in a fluster with his face turned red.

「No, therefore, you see. That…, Sakura’s dishes are, you see, I thought, I’d be lonely if I couldn’t eat it anymore. Since Sakura’s dishes are delicious you see, un.」

It doesn’t feel bad being praised but…

Though I have a feeling Chiffon-san softly muttered「hetare…」, I’m sure it’s my imagination.

「Even so, I’ll be bothered by incidents like this time’s.」

I’d like to be pardoned from being dragged into troublesome matters.

「No, I’ll be careful so incidents like this time won’t occur. Aー, my mother and Aria… if you meet them once in a while, they won’t behave recklessly, I think…」

The Prince unconfidently explains.

「Haa~. I understand, it’s fine already. About the Queen and Princess Aria, I’m sure they can’t be stopped even if the Prince talks to them…」

Giving up here, as expected, I’m too soft after all.

Well, I do think it’s a fact that the Queen and Princess Aria can’t be stopped by the Prince.

The head of this royal family, is probably the Queen. And the King is the runner up, then Princess Aria and Prince Edwill by a small margin. Prince Sedrim appears to be the lower strata2.

「And so, what happened with me yesterday? After the time of me asking the Prince for this story just now, I have no memory so.」

「That’s…, because Sakura mistook alcohol for juice and drank it. It was also quite a strong one too na. You immediately collapsed after that, and I carried you to this room. As usual, I was dragged onto the bed and clung onto by Sakura, but for some reason you immediately stripped off my clothes. It was just as usual after that.」

Umm…, I certainly remember taking a glass from a nearby waiter…

Oh, so that was alcohol…

Because of that, the Prince carried me? To this room…?

「ufufufu, His Highness carried Sakura-sama in his arms you know? From the hall to this room.」

UWAAAAAAAA! I shouldn’t have asked!

Isn’t there quite a distanced from the hall to this room!

Furthermore, the very day of the ball, from the venue…!

What a shame play!!

Moreover, stripping the Prince… what was I doing, me!

Furthermore, ‘just as usual after that’ means… you mean I clung onto him naked!?

I shouldn’t have found out!!!

「Sakura-sama clinging onto His Highness while half asleep, it was cute wa~. Even when His Highness tried to move his hand, you clung on tighter… Aah, I wanted to show the Queen and the others…」

As I was blushing in agony, Chiffon-san further dropped a powerful bomb on me.

「Cling…」

I shouldn’t have asked! I shouldn’t have known!

「Uh, I’ve troubled you…」

I somehow squeeze out some words of apology.

「Well…… it’s, fine.」

The Prince looks away with a flushed face as well.

Chiffon-san is…… she also has a flushed face but…… she’s wriggling around in anguish.3

I’ll pretend I didn’t see that…

The delicate atmosphere continued on until we were called for breakfast…
