Interest Meter

Displays a person's current level of interest in the host. Mike silently dismissed the notification and continued walking beside Mia.

An Interest Meter... He couldn't help but glance sideways at her.

[Mia]

Interest: 43%

Mike raised an eyebrow.

Higher than I expected.

Mia broke the silence first. "...Thanks."

Mike looked at her. "For what?"

"For stepping in." She forced a small smile. "Those guys had been following me for a while. I thought they'd leave if I ignored them."

"You should've called someone."

"I know."

She looked down at the ground for a moment before letting out a sigh. "I just didn't think they'd try anything in broad daylight."

Mike nodded. "Did they take anything?"

She shook her head. "No. You got there before they could."

Another notification flickered for a brief second.

[Interest: 43% to 46%] It changes in real time...

Mike pretended not to notice. "You should report them," he said.

"I will."

After a few seconds of silence, Mia glanced at him. "I owe you one."

"You don't."

"I do."

Mike chuckled. "Then buy me a bottle of water someday."

Mia blinked before laughing softly.

"That's a pretty cheap price for saving someone."

"I'm a reasonable guy."

She smiled, the tension finally leaving her face. "I'll remember that."

The two continued walking through the park in comfortable silence.

A few moments later, Mia looked at him again.

"So... were you training here?"

"Yeah."

"The punches I saw..." She hesitated. "They were different from the ones at the gym."

Mike smiled faintly. "I've been training every day."

"It shows."

Another notification appeared in the corner of his vision.

[Interest: 46% to 48%]

Mike finally understood how the skill worked.

It wasn't reading minds. It simply measured how every conversation, every action, and every impression changed a person's feelings toward him.

Mike glanced at her again from the corner of his eye.

48%.

Not bad.

He kept his tone casual. "You always train this late?"

Mia shook her head. "Only when I can't sleep. My coach wants me to rest more, but…" She shrugged. "I get restless."

"Same," Mike said. "Resting too long makes me feel like I'm falling behind."

Mia nodded slowly. "I get it. That's probably why you're improving so fast."

"Most people here aren't serious."

[Interest: 48% to 51%]

Mike noticed the jump and decided to push a little further.

"You're not exactly what I expected either," he said.

Mia raised an eyebrow. "What's that supposed to mean?"

"I thought Olympic-level athletes only knew how to glare and throw punches." He glanced at her. "Turns out you can smile too."

Mia clicked her tongue, but there was no real irritation in it. "You're strangely good at talking."

Mike smirked. "Yeah. I guess I've got Silver Tongue now."

She frowned. "Silver... what?"

He blinked.

"...Nothing."

Mia narrowed her eyes.

"You're weird."

Mike only shrugged.

She let out a short laugh under her breath. After a few more steps, she slowed down and stopped near a vending machine.

"Give me your number," she said suddenly.

Mike looked at her.

Mia met his eyes without looking away. "You said I owe you a bottle of water. I don't like leaving debts unpaid."

He took out his phone and handed it over. Mia typed quickly, saved her contact, and returned it.

"Don't call me for useless things," she added.

Mike smiled. "I'll try."

[Interest: 51% to 54%]

By the time Mike returned to the dorm building, the last traces of sunlight had disappeared beyond the horizon. He climbed the stairs in a good mood, still thinking about Mia, but as he turned the corner onto his floor, his steps slowed.

Eve was standing outside his room with her arms crossed. She leaned against the wall, her expression unreadable, looking as though she'd been waiting for quite some time.

Mike stared at her, unable to hide his surprise.

"…Why is there a girl in the boys' hostel?" Eve's expression immediately twisted into pure disbelief.

"Are you kidding me?" she said flatly. "This is a mixed dorm."

Mike blinked. "What?"

"Mixed. Dorm." She pointed down the hallway. "My room is two doors after yours. How did you not know that?"

He opened his mouth, then closed it again. "…I just moved in."

Eve sighed and rubbed her forehead. "Unbelievable."

Mike unlocked the door and stepped aside. "Come in for a second."

She walked past him without hesitation. Once inside, Mike closed the door and turned to her.

"So?" he asked. "What happened?"

"The thing is… well…" Eve hesitated, her voice trailing off.

Her thighs were pressed tightly together. Her hands rested under her breasts, unconsciously lifting them slightly as she struggled to find the right words. She looked restless, shifting her weight from one foot to the other while avoiding his eyes.

Mike watched her for a moment, then stepped closer. He reached out, gripped her waist firmly, and pulled her against him.

"You're really naughty," he muttered.

Before she could react, he closed the distance and kissed her.

Eve stiffened in surprise. Her hands pressed lightly against his chest as she leaned back, breaking the kiss.

"N-No, I came here for—"

She didn't get to finish.

Mike's hand had already slid down between her legs, rubbing her through the soft fabric of her clothes. Eve's breath hitched, and a small moan slipped out.

"Aah…"

He didn't stop. In the next moment, he pulled her top up and off, freeing her heavy breasts. They sat full and soft in front of him. Mike's hands sank into them immediately, kneading the warm flesh as he pushed her back onto the bed.

Author: Bra?????

He freed his cock from his pants. It was already hard and aching from the sudden contact. Climbing over her, he pressed the thick shaft between her breasts and pushed them together around it, creating a tight, soft tunnel. Then he began moving, sliding his cock back and forth between them.

Eve's face turned a deep red. Her eyes stayed locked on the sight of his cock thrusting between her tits. After a moment, she parted her lips and let her tongue out. Every time Mike pushed forward, the head of his cock brushed against her tongue, leaving it wetter with each stroke.

He went further. Pulling back slightly, he shifted higher and settled his balls against her mouth. Eve hesitated only a second before taking them between her lips, sucking softly while he stroked his cock above her face.

The sensation pushed him close to the edge. Mike moved again, guiding his cock past her lips and into her mouth. Eve's head bobbed as she took him in. After only a few thrusts, his control broke.

He groaned and pushed deeper, releasing thick ropes of cum straight into her mouth.

"Ohhh… fuck… take it all," he muttered, holding himself there as he finished.

Eve's eyes widened.
