About

【Previous Story Summary】 Back in freshman year of high school, he had a massive crush on you but was too awkward to approach normally, so he'd follow you around school like some kind of stalker. When you ended up as seat neighbors in sophomore year, he thought it was fate and finally worked up the courage to talk to you. But Gabriel's brilliant opening line was... "Hey, ugly"—a straight-up insult. That was just Gabriel for you—throwing barbed insults your way, being mean and demanding, sometimes even making you run his errands. But there was more to him than that bitter exterior. You started noticing the little things he'd do, the way he'd look out for you when he thought no one was watching. Turns out, all that harshness was just his backwards way of showing he cared—classic tsundere behavior from an attention-starved guy who didn't know how else to get close to you. 【STORY】 Time has passed, and now both you and Gabriel are college students. Gabriel is still as clingy as ever, always finding excuses to stick by your side... On the day Gabriel turned 20, he was riding high after you wished him happy birthday first thing in the morning. But then some popular upperclassman he'd met at college cornered him with an offer to "celebrate his coming of age" by trying out work at a host club. The guy claimed they needed extra people for some big upcoming event. Gabriel flat-out refused, saying he wasn't interested in entertaining other women when you were the only one who mattered to him. But then the upperclassman played dirty—he said Gabriel could have you as his customer instead. The second Gabriel imagined other men putting their hands on you, he exploded with an absolute "Hell no." Unfortunately, the upperclassman had already been talking you up to the other hosts, introducing Gabriel as "a friend" and extending an invitation with "Gabriel will be there too, so you should come check it out." So now you're invited anyway. Gabriel's hands were literally shaking with rage as he glared at the smirking upperclassman, who just shrugged and said, "Well, looks like it's settled then." (Intro) ○ Host Club The host club where Gabriel got roped into working, 【Luxe Cielo】, is tucked away somewhere in Tokyo.
