With that, the two walked slowly towards the East Campus where Amelia resided. At first Ken felt a little awkward, but after chatting for a while it wasn't as bad as he thought.

"I heard you're from Japan?"

Ken nodded, "I was brought up about an hour from Tokyo and came here almost 2 years ago now."

"Wow, your English is amazing. Did you learn over there?" She asked with intrigue.

Ken let out a chuckle. "My dad was born in America, so we always spoke English and Japanese at home."

"Ohh, I see. I'll be going to Tokyo for the Olympics later this year, do you have any recommendations?"

Ken was slightly taken aback. He had forgotten that the Olympics were hosted in Tokyo this year, not that he actually followed them at all.

Like that, the two chatted back and forth and before Ken knew it, he had actually let his guard down. At some point, he was actually beginning to enjoy the conversation.

Not only was Amelia smart, she also had a cute laugh. She would lean into him when laughing, or just touch his arm every now and then when talking.

Since the East Campus was only 1/5th of a mile away, they had arrived in less than 10 minutes, even with their slow walking speed. Ken stopped in place and was about to say his goodbyes, but Amelia's hand brushed down his arm and grabbed his hand.

"Why don't you come up and I'll make us some tea." She suggested, batting her eyelids softly.

Instantly, Ken felt a sense of danger. The woman in front of him was gorgeous, that was no lie. But in addition to that, she'd lulled him into a false sense of security, easily leading him astray.

Ken shook his head, using his discipline forged by many years of hard work and effort to resist her charms. "I'm sorry, I have a fiance." He said, letting her hand go.

Amelia's face stiffened briefly before her carefree smile returned, "I see. I'm sorry for being so forward, I don't usually get along this well with someone."

Ken smiled, "It was nice talking to you, I'm sure we can be friends."

However, Amelia shook her head. "Let us remain as acquaintances. That way I won't have to put my already stretched restraint to the test. A girl can only resist for so long."

Before Ken could answer, Amelia placed her hand on Ken's firm chest and ran it down his abs, letting out a quiet sigh. "It was nice meeting you Ken." She said, turning around and mumbling something to herself.

"Such a pity…"

Ken was dumbfounded, even more so because her touch left him with a tingling sensation. His gaze lingered on Amelia's back for a few moments before he turned around and made his way back to his own dorm.

He fished his phone out of his pocket and dialed a number.

"Hey… I miss you."

Ken quickly went over what had happened during the night, not sparing any detail. Ai was already aware of the frat party, but she grew silent when hearing about Ken walking Amelia home.

"Thank you for telling me. Just for that, I won't get mad." She replied, making Ken laugh a little in response.

"I trust you Ken, but you need to look out for these kinds of people. I've heard that college in America is filled with people having… You know what."

Ken nodded. He had heard similar things as well, even experienced it 2nd hand when walking the halls at night. The sound of two people rutting, with no concern for those around them.

The two talked for a while before Ken arrived at the dorms. He ended the call with Ai and disrobed before jumping into bed, staring at the ceiling like he usually did.

He was feeling a little restless and didn't want to sleep for some reason. So after only 5 minutes, he put on his workout gear and left the dorm once more, heading for the gym.

'I'll work up a sweat, that should sort me out.'

Ken ended up going through his full weight routine for the next 90 minutes before finishing off on the treadmill. By the time he was done, his muscles were screaming at him for rest, leaving him with a satisfied expression.

Thankfully no one was present in the gym which was rare. But when he went to leave, he saw a figure staring at him from the hallway, causing him to almost jump in fright.

"Coach? Is that you?"

Sure enough, it was Coach Brown. "Putting in some extra work before the season starts?" He said, wearing a satisfied smile.

"Y—Yeah, just feeling a little restless." Ken admitted, wiping away some sweat from his face.

"Mmm, your work ethic is definitely the best on the team, I'll give you that." The coach praised him. "Just try not to overwork yourself okay? We'll need you in top form."

"Don't worry coach, I know my body the best." He retorted with confidence.

"Very good. We've got 3 games back to back against Stetson University in Florida at the end of the week. Are you ready?"

Ken nodded, "I'm ready to do whatever you need me to do coach."

"I'm sure you are young man." Coach Brown said with a smile. "Now go get some rest, we've got a long season ahead."

"Yes sir."

Ken was feeling rather motivated after talking to the coach, remembering that the start of his college baseball season was getting much closer. He took a shower and used Mika's sleep protocol to get some much needed sleep.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

When he woke up at 5 in the morning the next day, he noticed that Steve was not in his bed, causing him to frown.

"He's not going to skip out on our morning training is he?" Ken muttered, clearly dissatisfied.

He quickly got changed and opened the bathroom door in order to splash some cold water on his face. However, the moment he opened the door, he saw Steve's naked figure entering the bathroom from Tara's dorm room.

Steve's eyes locked onto Ken's, his face going through a myriad of emotions.

"Don't tell me…" Ken muttered in shock.
