Gensokyo, I am a slime, everyone loves me

"A-San~"

"A-San~"

"A-San~"

"..."

"A-San, I like you, the kind of liking between lovers, the kind where I want to kiss and hug you."

"So, please be my girlfriend."

Memories grew like wild grass, hazy memories began to focus, eventually converging into scene after scene.

Promises echoed in her ears, the young boy calling her name repeatedly.

Finally, the scene froze—

That young figure stood at the entrance of the Sunflower Field, turning his head to look at her, his small face beaming with a smile.

"A-San, let's go see the snow together!"

Kazami Yuuka opened her eyes, her cold face already covered in tears, which slid down her perfect contours.

"Drip..."

His forehead felt wet, Bai Luo reached out and touched it, it was cold.

He looked up and saw Kazami Yuuka looking like a pear blossom in the rain, her eyes red and swollen, her nostrils slightly trembling, and her lips also trembling a little from emotion.

Utterly dishevelled.

She didn't look like the Flower Tyrant at all, didn't look like Kazami Yuuka at all, didn't look like A-San at all.

Bai Luo reached out, wanting to wipe away the tear stains on her cheeks, but couldn't wipe them clean.

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Kazami Yuuka hugged him tightly, afraid that if she let go, he would quietly leave, just like the cherry blossoms that drifted down that day.

"I just, I just needed a little time, I thought you still had time, I thought you could wait for me, I regret it, I love you, I love you very, very much..."

Her tone was choked, her voice trembling, her whole body uncontrollably shaking slightly.

She had never regretted anything as much as she did that day.

Why did she hesitate?

Why didn't she realize her feelings sooner?

Why was she so slow?

Clearly, clearly, if it had just been a little earlier, the Little One wouldn't have had to leave with regret and sadness.

She could have given him more time...

Regret and sadness surged like a tide, wave after wave.

Tears kept falling, Kazami Yuuka gritted her teeth, but still couldn't control herself.

Suddenly, her lips touched something warm and soft, carrying a hint of sweet fragrance.

Kazami Yuuka froze all over, slowly opened her eyes, her vision blurred.

In the haze, Bai Luo was kissing her.

She could hear her own rapid heartbeat, and his, beating against her heart one by one, awakening her soul.

The kiss lasted for a very, very long time, so long that the stars in the sky slipped away, the snow quietly stopped, and the wind gradually died down, until it completely ceased.

"A-San~"

Bai Luo called softly, and his figure was reflected in Kazami Yuuka's ruby-like eyes, everything seeming dreamlike and illusory.

"A-San, I like you, the kind of liking where I want to kiss and hug you, will you be my girlfriend?"

"I will."

Her voice trembled, but it was unusually firm.

...

Hakurei Shrine.

Reimu sat on the sloped steps, snowflakes gently falling on her head, her shoulders, and also falling into her already cold heart.

A box of flower cakes was placed between her knees, she picked up a piece and put it in her mouth, it was sweet and soft.

Piece after piece, the sweetness surged onto her tongue, finally gathering in her eyes, she closed her eyes, and tears quietly rolled down.

"Liar, just like Zi Ma, both are liars."

Reimu gritted her teeth and cursed in a low voice.

At this moment, her mood was extremely complex.

On one hand, anger surged from being deceived again.

On the other hand, she couldn't wait to find Bai Luo, see him, and cry to him about her pain.

He clearly said he wouldn't leave, clearly said she could treat him as family, clearly said he would always accompany her.

How could he...

How could he lie!

The flower cakes were eaten one after another, and when the last one was eaten, Reimu's tears had stopped.

She took a deep breath and returned to the Hakurei Shrine.

"Let's go see the Happy Hut tomorrow."

The sky quietly cleared.

A ray of sunlight slipped through a gap in the clouds, sprinkling onto the earth, passing through the window lattice, and enveloping the sea-blue bed.

Bai Luo turned over, feeling the sunlight on his cheek, he reached out to shield his eyes, muttering:

"Great Sage, hurry up and close the window, close the window!"

He grumbled until the dazzling sunlight disappeared, then turned over again and fell back asleep.

This movement woke up the sleeping Kazami Yuuka, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, her gaze wandered blankly around, her thoughts in chaos.

Suddenly, Kazami Yuuka woke up sharply, memories surging into her mind.

She looked around and saw Bai Luo lying on his side next to her, then she relaxed, her nervous mood gradually calming down.

"Bai Luo~"

She called softly.

Bai Luo didn't respond, just hugged the Slime tightly, sleeping soundly.

Kazami Yuuka hugged him from behind, her slender fingers gently stroking his forehead.

Bai Luo grumbled a few words unhappily, then curled himself into a ball.

All of this was too unreal.

Kazami Yuuka only felt like she was dreaming.

She was afraid, afraid that when she woke up, there would be nothing left, nothing would remain.

She squeezed Bai Luo's face hard, it was soft and very real.

After confirming it wasn't a dream, she finally felt at ease.

Kazami Yuuka tightened her embrace, snuggled her whole body against him, closed her eyes, greedily absorbing the body heat coming from him, breathing in his scent.

She loved Bai Luo, loved this Little One, it started a long time ago, from the first time she saw him, from the time he smiled brightly at her...

The morning sun shone on the earth, warm sunlight filled Fantasy Land.

It was noon.

From the moment the first ray of sunlight fell, Kazami Yuuka had been awake, watching the still sleeping Bai Luo, her heart filled with happiness and satisfaction.

She hoped this tranquility would last forever.

However, soon, Kazami Yuuka seemed to sense something, her gaze turned towards the direction of the Hakurei Shrine, and a strange light flashed in her eyes.

She gently leaned down, placed a light kiss on Bai Luo's forehead, then quietly left and returned to the Sunflower Field.

Chapter 32 Marisa: You're a good person! A great person!

Slept until naturally awake.

Bai Luo sat up, stretched refreshedly, and just as he was about to get up, he found someone lying next to him, it was Marisa.

He blinked his eyes, not understanding why.

Suddenly, a soft thud came from the left.

Bai Luo turned his head and saw that there was even a Reimu lying on the left.

He looked bewildered, supporting his confused head, and began to recall what happened last night.

Yesterday.

He drank the memory potion, but found it had no effect, everyone still didn't remember him.

At night, he sat alone by the window watching the snow, and A-San ran back at some point, saying she was worried about him.

Then...

Bai Luo rubbed his head, trying hard to remember, as if recalling something, the corners of his lips lifted.

Then he asked A-San again at that time, whether she liked him or not.

She liked him.

She gave a positive answer this time.

A-San recovered her memory and cried just like the simple Zi Ma, looking utterly dishevelled.

As if remembering something, Bai Luo's young face suddenly turned red, he touched his lips, feeling a bit dazed.

Soft and warm, still with a nectar scent.

Wait!

Bai Luo realized something, looked left and right, looking at their sleeping faces, and couldn't help but complain.

If it was really like the memory, shouldn't A-San be by the bed?

Where is A-San then?

It's one thing for A-San not to be by the bed, but how did she get replaced by a Shrine Maiden plus a black and white mouse?

"Mmm... Hmmph..."

Marisa groggily opened her eyes, instinctively hugged Bai Luo next to her, and closed her eyes heavily again, but soon felt something was wrong and suddenly opened her eyes again.

Their eyes met.

Their gazes intersected, and the air seemed to freeze.

Bai Luo was just about to speak, but Marisa beat him to it: "Why are you here?"

It was as if veins were faintly bulging on Bai Luo's forehead, and a faint 'well' character seemed to appear in the air.

He gritted his teeth and pointed around: "How dare you ask that question."

Marisa was initially confused, but after looking around, she seemed to remember something, and her fair face instantly turned red.

Bai Luo sighed and asked: "Why are you guys here? Where is A-San?"

"I, I only came this morning, I just saw you were sleeping, so I didn't wake you up, when I came, I only saw you alone."

Marisa buried her face very low.

Hearing this, Bai Luo was speechless, he glanced at Reimu who was still sleeping soundly on his left, it was obvious that this guy was here for the same reason.

He said speechlessly: "If I was still sleeping, you could have gone to soak in a hot spring, or just wander around, or at the very least, you could have gone to sleep in your own rooms."
