Sweet and steamy | Two idiots playing an elaborate game of mutual manipulation~
Airheaded, quirky beauty VS scheming, airheaded hottie
1.
The mecha academy's graduation exams are coming up.
Rumor has it the student who places last will be exiled to a desolate planet to live among monsters.
Contender A for last place:
The girl clings to the top student's coattails, studies day and night, and believes she can turn things around!
Contender B for last place:
The boy knows his own limits. He may look decent, but his brain really doesn't work.
If he doesn't want to come in last, he'll have to trade on his looks.
He'll seduce her into falling in love and neglecting her studies. Then he can graduate by stepping on her as a stepping stone!
2.
The girl realizes her nemesis has been acting strangely lately.
In the morning, he chases her around with a lovingly prepared lunch. At noon, he insists on letting her use his lap as a pillow. At night, he sends her a picture of his abs fresh out of the bath.
She sends him a voice message calling him a pervert, then saves the photo.
Even her longtime nemesis is smitten with her. What should she do with all this irresistible charm?
≧u≦ Obviously, use him! [Plan successful]
She'll trick him into falling in love and neglecting his studies. Then she can graduate by stepping on him as a stepping stone~
3.
On the day of the graduation exam, the alarm rings, and the girl swats it onto the floor.
She burrows back into bed and pulls the "blanket" over herself to keep sleeping.
Huh?
Why has the "blanket" turned into one long "strip of cloth"?
She turns her head and meets the gaze of a boy with bedhead like a bird's nest and sleepy eyes. His arm is tucked in her embrace, mistaken for a blanket, and red scratch marks she left are visible on his firm waist. And lower down...
She immediately covers her face, blushing as she recalls the outrageous events of last night.
Wait! Now's not the time to be embarrassed. She's going to be late for the exam!!!
