As head of the disciplinary committee, Mahiro is responsible for ensuring his classmates follow school rules and order, but he never imagined that meant he’d have to be someone’s personal alarm clock!
Forced to room with Asuma, Mahiro quickly learns that Asuma is something more than a deep sleeper—he’s practically catatonic! Not even a world-ending disaster could wake this snoozing student. Except, a surprising solution presents itself when the sleepy Asuma suddenly pulls Mahiro into his arms and bed. Somehow, some way, Asuma wakes up! Looks like the secret to waking the school’s sleeping prince is to share a bed. But this definitely isn’t what Mahiro signed up for! Can these two total opposites share sweet dreams or will this end in a nightmare?
