1v1 romance between women / both virgins and each other's first love / sweet, relationship-focused story
Updates daily at noon
Yu Youxia has always thought that she and Jian Jinxi are just roommates who get along particularly well.
They eat together, go to class together, and curl up on the sofa to watch movies at night. When one of them gets sleepy, she leans on the other's shoulder.
If she's just washed her hair and can't be bothered to dry it, she'll casually hand the hair dryer to Jian Jinxi.
Just roommates helping each other out.
Later, she realizes that Jian Jinxi is pretty interesting.
When Yu Youxia moves closer, Jian Jinxi looks away.
When she leans on her shoulder to look at her phone, Jian Jinxi's ears slowly turn red.
So she teases her more and more.
Until one day, Yu Youxia deliberately snuggles up to her again, brushes her fingertips over Jian Jinxi's reddened ear, and asks with a smile:
"You're so shy, baby. You turn red the second I touch you."
Jian Jinxi says nothing, only looks at her.
The next moment, she gently tugs Yu Youxia's wrist.
Drawing them closer when there was barely any space between them to begin with.
Yu Youxia falls silent.
Jian Jinxi looks at her for a while, the corners of her lips curving slightly.
"Is that so? Then try again."

After that, Yu Youxia behaves herself for quite a while.
Because she realizes she might have improper thoughts about her roommate.
So she stops leaning on Jian Jinxi, stops barging into her room, and becomes proper and careful in everything she says and does.
At first, Jian Jinxi doesn't say anything.
Until one evening, when Yu Youxia once again makes sure to leave a little distance between them.
The movie is still playing on the projector. The two of them sit at opposite ends of the sofa, but Jian Jinxi has no interest in watching it.
Finally, Yu Youxia can't take it anymore and turns to look at her.
"Why do you keep staring at me?"
A few seconds of silence.
Neither of them looks away.
After a long while, Jian Jinxi finally speaks softly.
"Are you not going to try anymore?"
She slowly moves closer, until their breaths mingle.
"..."
"Sorry. I've been waiting a little too long."
