平野と鍵浦 [Hirano to Kagiura] Series by Shou Harusono, Winster

Basketball players. Bad boys who aren’t really bad boys. Roommates. Senpai-kouhai BL romance. It all started when Kagiura moved into the school dorms with what seemed to be a bad-boy upperclassman. But after he’s left in the tender care of his mother hen of a roommate, Hirano, it’s too much to ask for Kagiura not to fall in love…right?!

Okay, so his first attempt didn’t work. Hirano somehow managed to turn Kagi’s attempt at a confession into nothing. If it was intentional, then does that mean he...doesn’t like Kagi back? Indulging him at every turn, treating him differently than anyone else—it’s not possible that Hirano sees him as just a friend. Is it?

It just might work out if I try hard enough...At least, that’s what Kagiura keeps telling himself as he works himself to the bone studying for his final exams. After all, that’s the only way to protect his dorm life with his dear upperclassman. But although Hirano agreed to another year of their roomshare, does he really understand what it means to live with the person who’s crushing on him...?

Ten seconds a day. That’s how long Hirano agreed to let Kagiura do the touchy-feely thing he insisted on. Hirano’s not sure it’s really doing anything, but whatever floats his boat, right? In any case, between all of Kagiura’s grumbling and Hirano’s friends’ reactions, Hirano is left pondering―what exactly counts as doting on his roommate...?
