Book Two [4] opens just prior to the second semester. Shima has bought a car and Hikaru and Shima go on a number of dates, including a trek to a mountain temple to make their New Year's prayers, where Hikaru fears it will be the last time he is able to be with Shima. Because he has to study for entrance exams, Shima refuses to see him for fear of disrupting his studying. Without ever going on another date with Shima, Hikaru graduates. The "play acting" quietly comes to an end. Hikaru asks Shima for his favorite watch as a graduation present, which Shima gives him, and after that they separate. Both become depressed. The four-book series follows the romantic entanglements between Shima, a male high school teacher, and a male student at his school, Hikaru Umino, as well as Shima's ex-lover, Amamiya, who also teaches at Shima and Hikaru's school. The first two books in the series detail Shima and Hikaru's relationship while Hikaru is still a high school student. In books three and four, Hikaru has graduated to university, and is struggling to juggle university, his part-time jobs, and his still-shaky relationship with Shima.
Shima admits that he loved Hikaru for a long time, so he manipulated him by teasing and flirting and encouraging him with physical actions until Hikaru became overwhelmed and "forced" himself on Shima. He tells Hikaru that it wasn't rape because it was what Shima wanted, and that his scratches came from Shima 'holding on', not fighting him. Shima also admits that he felt guilty, and as penance, severed their play-acting so that Hikaru could have a good love life in the future, without being burdened by a serious relationship. However, Shima's plan did not work, as Hikaru's love life is dysfunctional. Hikaru proposes that they act as pretend lovers until he graduates from university, with the agreement that if either one finds someone better, they can leave the relationship. Shima agrees, and the two lovers reunite. Amamiya announces himself completely over Shima, and begins an affair with the school nurse, Ms. Morikawa. Meanwhile, Shima continuously flirts with Hikaru, then, after finding him lurking around outside, invites him in and initiates sex with him, telling Hikaru that he can atone for the earlier rape by being pretend lovers until Hikaru graduates, but they can only play lovers if Hikaru's grades are good; therefore, Hikaru must earn good exam scores if he wants to go on dates with Shima.

It seemed like it had common sense and i really liked the MC. But the love interest is a crazy psycho and nothing justifies his behaviour and i just don't understand how can the MC forgive him. They don't really explain it either. If they would make this into a psychological story, and explored the MC and ML psyche more and made it clear that it is not normal to fall in love with someone who SA-d you, maybe i would keep reading. But they don't really care so i can't trust the author anymore. I read the spoilers about the rest of the story and i think i made the right decision.
