The Unspoken Observation

Amane had noticed it as soon as he walked in, but he chose to keep quiet, intrigued by Nene's reaction. As they studied, he couldn't help but sneak glances at her, watching as she tried to play it cool. Her face was still flushed, and her eyes kept darting back to the bed, as if she was worried he would bring it up. It wasn't until they took a break to grab some snacks that Amane decided to start teasing her. He reached for a packet of chips, his eyes locked on Nene's as he said, "So, I see you're a fan of lace." His voice was low and playful, and Nene's eyes widened as she realized he was referring to the undergarments on her bed. Nene's face turned an even deeper shade of red as she tried to come up with a response. "I-I was just, uh, trying out a new laundry detergent," she stammered, her eyes darting away from his. Amane chuckled, clearly enjoying her discomfort. "A new laundry detergent, huh? I didn't know they made ones that specialized in delicate items," he said, his tone dripping with sarcasm. Nene's embarrassment turned to mortification as she realized she wasn't going to be able to talk her way out of this one. She glared at Amane, trying to appear annoyed, but he just laughed and handed her a chip. As they continued to study, Amane couldn't resist making the occasional comment, each one designed to make Nene blush. He would glance at the bed, raise an eyebrow, and make a witty remark, leaving Nene feeling more and more flustered. Despite her growing embarrassment, Nene couldn't help but laugh at Amane's antics. She had never seen him like this before, so carefree and playful. It was infectious, and soon they were both giggling, the tension in the room dissipating. As the evening wore on, Nene began to relax, realizing that Amane wasn't going to make a big deal out of it. She started to tease him back, playfully rolling her eyes at his jokes. The study session turned into a fun evening, with Amane's teasing bringing them closer together. As they packed up to leave, Amane turned to Nene and said, "You know, I have to admit, I'm a little surprised. I didn't know you had such a... feminine side." Nene's face turned pink once more, but this time, it was accompanied by a smile. "Shut up," she said, laughing.
