A Thorny Rose (The X-Family + Ban)

The rose, you know, is such a beautiful flower.

But...

It usually comes with sharp thorns.

Roses have thorns

because they need to hide their fragile, tender hearts,

so others can't hurt them so easily.

Two roses bloom in different places, living by the same means of survival.

Hey, what am I supposed to do?

It seems like all my thorns disappear when I'm in front of you.

How am I supposed to protect myself like this?

You don't need to put so much effort into protecting yourself,

because

I can protect you.

I seriously feel like I should just die because I've started another story. Why don't I just go die already, you idiot? (bangs head against the wall)

Anyway, it's just something I'm writing for fun when I have nothing to do (isn't that what I always do?!). If you like it, leave a comment, otherwise I'm not updating anymore! (← That's an outright threat, isn't it?)

I plan to alternate chapters between The X-Family and KO One, like a sandwich.

The two heroines are strong-willed and love to fight. If that's not your thing, feel free to click the X in the upper-right corner. Thanks for your cooperation.

The story is a bit messy, so please forgive me. I'm no good at mathematical logic, OTZ.
