Yuzu awoke to the smell of burning through the house, the sharp smell hitting her senses and dragging her from her slumber faster than a bolt of lighting. Her body snapping up as her eyes flew open. "MEI?!" Eyes scanning the sheets draped over her body, Yuzu was stunned to not only find herself alone on the couch, but the clatter of a pan and squeal that came from the kitchen.
Her eyes adjusting to the light and squinting to the room beside her, Yuzu watched as the pan hit the floor.
"Mei?" Now fully awake, Yuzu rose to her knees on the sofa to see a frying pan along with a white mix smeared across the kitchen floor. Mei had jumped back and let out a small squeal when her name was shouted, leaving her cheeks painted red and her eyes wide at the mess she had made.
Now knowing the house wasn't burning down, Yuzu took a better look at the pan on the floor: The base of the pan being covered in the mix that was now spilt over the floor... only it was crisp black.
Quickly scouting her clothes from the night before, Yuzu stumbled off the couch and over to her lover who was now in the process of trying to clean her mess up.
"Mei, are you trying to cook me breakfast?" Yuzu asked with a grin as she wrapped an arm around the slim waist before her. Given the mess that was on the floor, perhaps the big grin Yuzu wore wasn't quite appropriate, but she couldn't help it; Mei was trying to cook her breakfast. Even if it did look like it had been prepared by a child, Yuzu would happily eat it.
Her ears burning with embarrassment, Mei gave a short nod before breaking free of her girlfriend's grasp, not feeling like she deserved the embrace. "I believe 'trying' would be putting it nicely," Mei said, her bitter response earning her a chuckle from her girlfriend.
"Hey, it's the thought that counts, why don't we make something together?" Yuzu suggested as she reached for the kitchen role to assist in cleaning up the mess.
"I appreciate the offer, but I don't really feel like cooking anymore, the moment has passed. If you want breakfast you'll just have to have toast or something, I'll clean up this mess." Frowning to herself, Mei shuffled once again out of the hands that tried to snake around her waist. But again the small warm hands founds themselves wrapped around her sides. Insistent on trying to comfort her.
"Yuzu will you stop it?! I'm trying to clean this up." Her voice raising didn't stop the hands closing around her waist and lips connecting on the back of her bare neck.
"Mei you only burnt the pan, it's nothing to worry about. We can just clean the pan and redo them." Yuzu smiled as she felt the body in her arms relax at her words.
"You shouldn't have to. You always make me breakfast, I should at least be able to cook you something simple like this without you having to help. It isn't exactly breakfast in bed if you have to help cook, is it?" Mei mumbled, her voice absent of its normal authoritative tone in the open kitchen.
"No, but... I love cooking with you so this is just as good as breakfast in bed. Now, will you let me help you with that so we can start cooking our breakfast?" Yuzu said softly, her hands having moved from her girlfriend's waist to her shoulders, giving them soft rubs as she spoke.
"You know it really is sweet that you tried to make me breakfast, this is why I love you so much. You act so cold to everyone but you really are a sweetheart!" Yuzu giggled through a smile as she drew them both to a standing position, her hands coming to rest on either side of the younger's face.
The next few seconds were spent looking in tot eh others eyes. Mei found adoration and happiness in the shimmering green gems. Not a sign of discontent within them. The smile that rested upon her girlfriend's lips was warm and genuine, it was moments like this that made Mei realise how much she loved the blonde.
As quickly as Mei had changed her mood about preparing her beloved some pancakes, her eyes now held a sheen of lust in them. Dodging the lips that where coming daringly close to her own, her head dipped down taking the slightly salty skin between her lips, her tongue making quick work of the pulsing flesh.
Yuzu was too good for her.
"M-Mei, I thought you wanted breakfast?" Fingers running through her hair, Yuzu managed a wavering gasp when the lips didn't stop. God damn, why did her neck have to be so sensitive?
Mei's head lifted, her lips finally crashing against her girlfriend's despite their harsh breathing. "I do, the only thing changing is my meal." Without a moment's more warning, Yuzu found the shorts she had only just managed to put on, back at her ankles.
After a trail of kisses was made down her chest, Yuzu's breathing watch beyond rapid. This new Mei willing to have sex in the front rooms was something Yuzu couldn't help but get off on. Before Yuzu had time the wrap her head around the fact of how quickly the morning had escalated, she felt Mei's hot mouth hovering over lips.
Mei gave a few short nips to her girlfriend's thighs with her teeth
Yuzu now having one hand gripping ferociously at the countertop and the other scrunching black locks as Mei's hot tongue worked her already slick lower lips.
"Urghhh Mei, that's it! Keep, keep doing that!" Her voice growing in volume, Yuzu couldn't help the hot n heavy moans that left her mouth when Mei moved to her clit.
It was early, the blonde had only just woken up, she wasn't mentally prepared for oral. That's what Yuzu kept telling herself when three minutes in, her thighs where clamping Mei's face into her crotch as her body shook with pleasure.
Mei took no notice, almost as if she had expected the short show. Instead, she ran her tongue up the inside of the blonde's twitching thighs catching the juices she had let escape.
"Mei, I-I didn't mean to come tha-" Through her panting and pink cheeks, Yuzu was struggling to hold eye contact with her girlfriend. Sure it didn't sound that bad, but compared to ten hours ago, Yuzu had really underperformed. Or at least that's what was running through the blonde's mind as she tried to bring Mei to her feet without actually looking at her.
"You didn't mean to what? Cum all over my lips in a matter of minutes?" Doing as the blonde silently asked, Mei came to a standing position and purred into the red hot ear of her girlfriend. Hands still tracing the hot clammy skin of her lover.
She heard Yuzu pout and cheeks puff up, clearly trying to come up with an excuse.
"It must mean you were really enjoying yourself, and that... my dear Yuzu, is nothing to be embarrassed about." Mei's words were spoken so sweetly they sounded venomous; seeping into the blonde's bloodstream like oxygen. The only thing Yuzu could focus on was the teeth grazing her throat and the heavy breath that coated her skin.
Oh shit, Mei's never called me that before. Fuck she's so hot when she talks like this!
"O-okay!" Nodding her head so fast blonde stands fell to the sides of her face, Yuzu could feel the heat in her cheeks refusing to die down.
Fingers traced across her jaw before her head was gently tugged down to look at her girlfriend. "Now that I've had my appetizer, why don't we make some food and we can continue this tonight?" Words, again spoken so sweetly nobody would have believed they left an Aihara's mouth. Mei ever so slowly bent down to the floor before gently dragging up the blonde's shorts.
"Absolutely!" Yuzu said, with almost too much excitement in her voice at the proposal.
And just like that, Mei gave a final kiss to the blonde's neck as if to satisfy her until later, before turning back to the mess that still stuck to the floor behind her.
Yuzu, after taking a moment to collect herself and stop the quaking in her knees dropped down to help her lover in cleaning the mess. Planting a big kiss to the ravens cheek, "I love you Mei," these simple words causing speckles of rose across the younger's cheeks.
And just like that, the day was off to a better start than Yuzu could have hoped for. Maybe with all this extra attention Mei was seeking and showing her, tonight wouldn't be too bad after all.
The afternoon passed quickly with Yuzu having planned a date for the two after breakfast. They had started with a quiet walk in the autumn air, the perfect opportunity to hold hands due to the cold breeze, gone for a late lunch before Yuzu had forced herself to go to a museum.
Today was about spending time with Mei, and instead of dragging her around the mall as she usually did, knowing it wasn't exactly what the younger would class as 'fun', Yuzu booked them two tickets for one of the most boring places in town: The history museum. But Mei seemed to be enjoying herself, taking a genuine interest in the displays. It wasn't the perfect date for the blonde, but it was definitely one worth having because Mei was enjoying herself.
Soon it was getting dangerously close to the time they needed to be at Matsuri's. And so, with a quick pit stop to buy a small bear keyring for Mei, the two headed home to get ready.
Tonight was a couple's games night, planned completely by Matsuri, not even Harumi had been given secret info on what the night would entail. It appeared the young girl had taken this quite seriously as just after Yuzu had agreed to the night, both her and Mei had received an email of invitation.
Dear Yuzu/Mei, glad to see you could both make it on Saturday, this is a formal confirmation of what I expect from both.
It's a small group of people: Me and my babe, Yuzu and Mei, Jasmin and Nate and lastly Willow and Ashton. All couples are expected to bring their A-game and come dressed to impress, anything that doesn't meet my expectations won't make it through the front door. Mei this applies to you too.
The night will be full of drinking, competitions, tests of trusts and questions of truths. Anyone unwilling to participate in any game will be asked to leave, no matter the activity. No exceptions!
Be here around seven, last couple to arrive gets a special treat, so let's not be late. Any questions probably won't be answered so don't ask, see all you hot bitches then! Matsuri, XX
"Her email was rather vulgar and did not follow the correct structure, I'm starting to wonder how she was the top of her class in the academy..." Mei said as she read through the email again. When she and Willow had asked for it to be held at the pink-haired girl's house they didn't expect to receive anything like this.
"Yeah I know, but she's a smart kid you know?! Anyway Mei... What are you going to be wearing, remember we're dressing to win here?" A large grin over her lips, Yuzu brushed through Mei's clothes looking for an outfit that would do more than compliment her curves.
"You seem to be enjoying this Yuzu," Mei replied as she put her phone down, eyebrow-raising at the blonde.
"Hey, I just think it's funny and ironic how she purposely called you out in the email for dress code. We've got to make you look smoking hot, I mean not that you're not already really hot, no not hot- pretty, what-what I mean is that, we both need to dress up!" Feeling as though she was digging herself a hole, Yuzu brought her ramblings to an end and turned back towards the closet. She would find her outfit first.
Yuzu was well aware of why this whole party was arranged in the first place, wearing something too revealing didn't quite seem like a smart idea. That would probably be something she would get in trouble for later, and she was expecting some special treatment tonight, not something she wanted to put in jeopardy.
"What do you think of this? I've only worn it a couple of times so I think it should be okay?" Holding a pair of skinny ripped jeans and a sheer mesh long sleeve top that tied with a ribbon at the back of the neck. It was revealing, to say the least, but this counted as being fully covered right? She had to at least be hot enough to get in the door.
Yuzu watched as Mei studied the set of clothes presented before her. Eyebrows knitting together as her nose scrunched up in dissatisfaction.
"Wear what you want," was all Mei said before getting off the bed. "But if that's the most respectable thing you could muster, we need to go through your clothes and buy you some new ones." Moving over to pick herself an outfit, Mei didn't say anything more on the girl's wardrobe options, even when Yuzu let a shriek of shock out at the statement.
"What?!... You know Mei, I think you would look really good in this?" It was more of a question than a statement, it being said as the blonde held the top up to the younger's chest and studied it.
"I think it would look reeeally good on you." Pushing the top into Mei's hands, Yuzu scanned the younger's wardrobe for a similar pair of jeans and handed them to her as well.
"This will definitely get you through the door!... And it means I can wear something else." Yuzu said the last part when she noticed Mei was about to say no. Funny enough, her thinking worked and Mei took the clothes with acceptance.
"This means I... can look at your sexy body all night," Yuzu smirked as her feet pulled her towards her girlfriend, fingers slipping under the baggy shirt to grab hold of the skin beneath. Her eyes flicking up and down the younger's body as her words hit the air.
"Better mine than anyone else's," The words were quick off Mei's tongue, the remark turning the hot air between the two bitter and tense. As fast as the air had turned sharp, Yuzu removed her hands and with a click of her tongue was running them through her hair as she turned away.
"Really, Mei I thought you said you were passed this?" It was more of a grunt than anything else, obvious annoyance shown by the way Yuzu was now rummaging through her clothes to find something suitable.
"Honestly I can't do anything right! I so much as glance at someone and you get mad, and when I try to compliment you, you just imply that I'm not being sincere and would rather be with someone else! I just don't get it, I can't win." Frustration taking over as the unfortunate shirt that was in the blonde's grasp got thrown into the wardrobe. The soft fabric leaving a dull thud sound in the room as it smacked against the wood.
Silence took over the room. Leaning against the wardrobe doors, Yuzu took a moment to collect herself before sighing.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to say that or raise my voice, it's just... hard. I don't know what to say when you come out with things like that... I thought you said you trusted me?" Turning back to Mei, Yuzu waited for her response; Surely Mei had an explanation for her comment? Had the blonde said or done something which implied she would want to look elsewhere? But Mei couldn't make eye contact with her girlfriend, no matter how much Mei wanted to she could bring herself to look up from the shirt that was now grasped tightly in her hands.
Not even Mei knew why she had said that, it was a silly and insensitive thing to say. All Yuzu had done since finding out about Mei's... thoughts, was try and prove her otherwise. She had given no indication that she truly wished to be with anyone else. This was Jasmin getting inside her head, that was the only logical conclusion Mei could come to as to why she still felt like Yuzu wasn't fully hers yet. As if there was a lingering possibility that she would leave if the offer was tempting enough.
Stop being stupid, Yuzu wouldn't do that, this is just me doubting her. I do trust you.
"You apologise too much, I shouldn't have said that, you are not in the wrong. I do trust you, I don't know why I said it. Please, forget I said anything." The words were rather quiet, but sincere all the same.
"Are you sure you want to go Mei? We don't have to, I know and you know that nothing would ever come of me and Jasmin, I wouldn't let it. What are you trying to prove by making us go to this?" Yuzu asked, her voice both concerned and curious about what this evening would actually achieve apart form some bonding time with their friends.
"It was Willow who wanted to arrange this not me, maybe I pushed for it because I need some sort of confirmation? I don't know, I don't want to talk about it." Mei's answer sounded more confused than the blonde's question, the uncertainty in her voice made it all the more difficult for Yuzu to understand.
"Fine if that's what you want... I didn't mean to spoil the mood or anything, we've had such a nice day, how about we just forget it?" Yuzu asked after a few moments of awkward silence. Tonight would be awkward enough without adding extra tension to the equation. Plus after such a good date the blonde didn't really want to argue about something like this; This had already been argued previously and it didn't get them anywhere.
"You can wear whatever you want, you'll look great," Mei said as she offered a small smile. The statement acting as a peace offering for the two.
"Thanks," Yuzu smiled as she accepted the apology. Reaching for the clothes in the younger's hands, Yuzu gave a gentle tug.
"You don't have to wear that shirt Mei, you look good in anything and no matter what I'll make sure Matsuri lets you in." Though even at her words, the shirt wouldn't budge.
"No I'll wear it, Matsuri said to dress appropriately and I will. You said yourself I would look good in this." Mei said as she looked at the shirt in her hands.
Yuzu could only smile at her girlfriend's attempts to cheer her up. Closing the space that had grown between them, Yuzu cupped the younger's face and gave a brief kiss to her cheek.
"I know you will," Taking a step back towards her wardrobe Yuzu browsed her options for a moment longer. After a time that Mei would describe as 'Too long', Yuzu emerged from the bedroom wearing a simple but flattering black dress.
Mei was the first to speak as she stood up straight to greet the blonde. "You look nice," It was a welcomed gesture from the younger girl, Yuzu however was slightly stuck on taking in her girlfriend who had taken the liberty of changing in the bathroom.
There was one set of lingerie that drove Yuzu crazy; Black lace that showed enough cleavage to draw eyes but didn't show anything below board. But Mei solemnly wore this due to the fact that it seemed a bit much for everyday use. Well to be fair she solemnly wore any lingerie, she felt embarrassed but powerful at the same time. It was a feeling she had endured with the blonde so few times she could chop off some of her fingers and still count the number of occasions on one hand. But she knew the impact it had on her blonde beloved. And she was dressing to impress.
Her cheeks scarlet, Yuzu muttered a small thanks as she took in the sight of her girlfriend. Her denim jacket looked better than she could have hoped on Mei.
A visible gulp of saliva could be seen as the blonde swallowed down her excitement towards the woman before her. Was now later enough to continue where they left things this morning?
Apology accepted Yuzu thought as she burned the image into her memory banks.
"And you look... amazing," It was husky, pure desire and infatuation masking her words. Mei as if on queue, nodded as her own cheeks lit up.
Well, at least she likes it.
Mei thought as she gave one last look to her dress choice. She wouldn't have been seen dead in something like this two years ago, but she was confident in her body and this was for Yuzu. She was sure she would do anything for the blonde, wearing something like this was a simple task Mei was more than willing to partake in. Not to say she wasn't slightly anxious about everyone else there being able to take the sight in.
The disagreement now in the back of the blonde's mind, Yuzu grabbed her purse and made her way to the door; Holding it open for her girlfriend as she followed suit.
"Are we driving or walking?" Yuzu asked as she glanced at her second love. Without meaning to, Yuzu had a spring of hopefulness to her question. It was known that Yuzu was attracted to the car when they had first seen it, but Mei had said on several occasions she felt the blonde's love for the car rivalled her love for her.
It was an obsession the younger didn't quite understand. All the eyes following the car on the road or the prying eyes when they got out, wasn't something Mei particularly liked, but that didn't mean it wasn't worth it for the smile it put on the blonde's face.
"We can drive and we will just have to get a taxi home," Mei said, truthfully feeling grateful they would be taking the car. She was willing to wear this for the blonde, but having the entire neighbourhood looking at her chest was not something she wanted to experience.
Saying this as she made her way over to the passenger side, Mei smiled at the giggle of excitement she got from her girlfriend. God how she loved that laugh and how such little things could bring it out.
"Thanks, Mei!" Yuzu expressed again as she jumped into her favourite seat, and with another glance to her girlfriend, Yuzu started up the car and pulled out.
It was difficult for Mei to watch her lover's distress and impatience during the drive to their friends house. Her thighs constantly rubbing together, fingers gripping and releasing the wheel as if to release some tension, her eyes constantly flicking to the woman beside her. Mei was very much aware of these signs, Yuzu had a bad case of horniness that needed attending to, Mei could only assume it was due to her attire.
Soon Matsuri's house was coming into view, but instead of driving up to the house, Yuzu drove straight to the road end.
"Yuzu what are you...doing?" Mei started out confused, but when she saw the blonde unbuckle her belt and carefully climb on top on her, it became pretty clear where her girlfriend wanted to take this.
There was a moment of silence between the two before Yuzu couldn't help it any longer, the gravitational pull of their lips was impossible to hold off. Her lips pushed down onto her girlfriend's, her ever so soft lips felt like heaven to the riled up blonde. God how she wanted Mei's fingers inside her right now.
Mei was now aware of why Yuzu had parked facing the hedge; The windows where tinted... no one would be able to see them... There really was no logical explanation for her to say no.
"You look so hot Mei, can't help it" Breath already heavy, Yuzu leaned over her girlfriend. There was a moment where their breaths mixed together in the quiet of the car, right before reflexes and want took over.
Without another thought to the situation, Mei basked in the feeling of her lover's lips a moment longer before pulling the skin-tight black dress up to the girl's hips.
It took but a few rubs for Mei to feel the battle of desire Yuzu had been keeping at bay on the ride over here.
Yuzu was struggling to believe Mei was even going along with this never mind how quickly her fingers had dipped inside her. Now the car was many things, but it wasn't completely soundproof.
Hips rocking back and forth to the rhythm of Mei's thrusts, Yuzu found herself gripping to the collar of the denim jacket just to keep herself upright.
I'm having sex in a car... Holy shit that feels good... Mhhng...Mei's fucking me in our car!
Coming to this realisation, something in the blonde seemed to snap. Perhaps it was just the way Mei had curled her fingers at that point, or maybe it was that the person Yuzu craved the most in the world was fucking her in her second most loved possession, but a deep moan was pried from her throat as her hips sped up.
"Fuck Mei don't stop! Faster, ughhh that's it!" Words spilt from the blonde's mouth, Mei feeling inclined to cooperate and did as she was told.
Though all the words Yuzu moaned during sex were like love to Mei's ears, the sentence that had just left the blonde's mouth was one she always craved; 'Mei! I'm, I'm gonna cum!' One of the best sights Mei had ever seen followed those words, and this only made Mei work harder for it.
Fingers increasing with intensity, Mei used her other hand to grab at the round ass to try and steady the blonde slightly. They were tight on space, but that didn't seem to stop the blonde in moving her hips as if they were at home.
And just like that, Mei watched in glory as a final moan was released from the blonde's parted lips. Cheeks a warm pink and eyes screwed tightly shut, Yuzu's head threw back and body spasmed as the orgasm passed through her; This was the sight Mei has been craving.
Mei gave a few more soft thrusts to bring her girlfriend down before removing her fingers. Knowing there was nowhere to wipe them or clean them, Mei's initial thought, though she didn't like to believe that she desired such things, was to clean them herself. That was her initial thought, her so one thought seemed much better. She looked from her slick fingers to the panting blonde on top of her and something clicked. Just the thought sent shivers down her spine.
Just barely coming down from her high, Yuzu watched as Mei ran just the tips of her fingers over her bottom lip. Her cheeks turned pinker at the thought of what Mei was going to say.
"Suck them clean," It came out low and sexy, something Yuzu couldn't disobey, not even if she wanted to. And so, without hesitation, Yuzu took the two fingers in her mouth, her tongue wrapping and swirling around the two digits.
Yuzu had occasionally tasted herself kissing Mei after their activities, but had never thought much of it at the time. Now licking her own juices from Mei's slender fingers, Yuzu couldn't help the fluttering it gave her.
Now cleaned, Yuzu released the fingers being sure not to leave any of her saliva behind.
"Good girl," Mei said, a hint of a moan slipping past her lips at the sensation. Fingers now clean, Mei reached for the back of the blonde's neck to bring her down for a kiss. As she hoped, she could still taste the bittersweetness on the girl's lips.
"We are going to be late if we stay here any longer and I don't want to be the last arrive," Mei said as she ran her hands up the blonde's naked legs. They would be late and Mei did not want to see what the young pinkette had in mind for the last couple to arrive.
Yuzu nodded quickly, now not captivated in their steamy session, it became clear how awkward it was going to be for the blonde to get out. After a few minutes to shuffling and giggles, Yuzu managed to hop out the passenger side and straighten out her dress that had ridden up to her hips again.
It wasn't long before her girlfriend followed, the two grabbing their purses and making their way towards the teens flat.
Just before Mei knocked, Yuzu planted a soft but firm kiss to the girl's cheek. "Remember, I love you," Yuzu smiled as she reassured her girlfriend a final time. Getting a confident nod, Yuzu saw nothing but concrete trust in her girlfriend's amethyst eyes. Yuzu stood at her girlfriend's side, believing tonight could maybe just be a fun get together.
"And looks who's late, get a little busy in the car did we?" Matsuri's smug expression greeted the pair at the door. As Matsuri anticipated, the blonde's cheeks blew up in a pink fluster, Mei, however much she tried to keep her cool, could feel her ears burning under her hair. They did have tinted windows, didn't they?
A small nod of approval at the girl's attire and Matsuri walked back into the flat, leaving the two standing at the door for a moment before they were greeted by a much happier Harumi.
"Hey don't pay attention to her, she's been keeping an eye on when everyone gets here and made up something about you guys getting out the same side? Silly I know... Are you sure you brought the Prez with you Yuzucchie?" Harumi grinned as she looked at the once ruthless and ever obeying student council president. Though she couldn't deny, the lace did look good on the girl.
"Yup! And believe it or not, Mei picked it out!" Yuzu said almost proudly as she briefly squeezed her girlfriend's arm. Trying to hide the subtle shock, Harumi gave a last glance at the silent woman before gesturing into the house.
"Well, you look super cute Yuzucchie, come on in. Luckily you're not the last couple here, Jasmin and Nate seem to be running behind. I have no idea what that little menace has planned so I'm giving you a full warning." An unsure smile on her face as she greeted the two in, much like her girlfriend should have done several minutes ago, Harumi brought the two into the main room
Mei was the first to talk as she took in the room around her, "I see you learnt how to clean up after yourself?" It was rather condescending and directed at the young girl who was currently lounged over a cuddle seat in the corner of the large flat.
Matsuri had rather wealthy parents, and although she didn't associate with them very often they where more than happy to provide her accommodation. So the flat was spacious, and the furniture on the expensive side. That glam, however, was usually subdued in the mess of living that was produced from the girl, today, however, it was damn near spotless. Obviously Mei could see room for improvement, but she was surprised more than anything.
Mei's congratulations were silenced by a laugh of hysterics in the corner and a snort from beside her.
"As if, I arrived here this morning and had to blitz the place, she didn't do anything," Harumi grunted as she went to sit next to her girlfriend on the large seat.
Greeting the couple sitting on the couch, Yuzu smiled brightly as she partook in meaningless conversation with the pair.
Willow excused herself for a moment, leaving Yuzu preoccupied with trying to tech Ashton the correct pronunciation, coming to sit next to her cousin with a bright smile.
"You don't look the slightest bit worried," Sitting too close for Mei to call comfortable, Willow nodded over to the blonde who looked as though she was on the edge of her seat as the young man attempted the sentence she had.
"Also, since when did you dress like this? I mean you could definitely turn heads with this outfit," Willow nodded as she looked at the younger girl's outfit, Mei had always dressed rather mundanely, always seeking to be part of the background. It was a rather nice surprise for the blonde to see her stiff cousin had let loose a little. From the small hand gesture, Mei made towards her cheerful girlfriend, as no words were needed as an explanation, Willow couldn't help but laugh.
"You must really be hooked on her," Lowering her voice just slightly, the Scot said in a slightly smug tone.
"If by hooked you mean I love her, then you'd be correct. No desperate, horrid person if going to come between that." Mei's statement was a slight shock to the older girl, but the confidence and sureness in the deep violets had Willow nodding in agreement.
"Well, that's what tonight's all about. I mean all we can hope it's that she actually tries something so that Yuzu can shut her down!" Whispering with enthusiasm, Willow was sure that tonight would only strengthen her cousin's relationship. Mei was no liar, that was something Willow had learnt young, she had no doubt that what Mei said about this girl was true, now all they had to do was prove it to Yuzu.
"Alright everyone, stop ignoring the host! Drinks are all in the kitchen, I hope you all have a high tolerance for alcohol cuz I've got quite a few drinking games planned. As we are still a couple down, we can all get a drink to start the night off with." Matsuri announced loudly as she started playing music from the speakers that surrounded the room.
"And yes, before you ask Mei, you have to drink." The youngest girl said as she planted a chilled beer into the back haired girl's hand.
"Mei doesn't drink that beer," Turning back to her girlfriend, Yuzu spoke up as she pointed to the beer bottle in Mei's hand.
"Well, it's this or she can start hitting the hard stuff?" Matsuri commented as she handed each occupant a bottle of their own.
"This will be fine Yuzu," Mei said, opening the bottle with what looked like acceptance. Yuzu, however, stood to take the bottle from her partner's hand and placed it on the table.
"Mei you hate that beer, we're gonna be here all night, you at least have to have something you like. I'll quickly run to the store and get you something." Yuzu smiled as she offered, and placed a chaste kiss to her girlfriend's cheek before she turned around to address the other couples.
"I'll be ten minutes, I'll just go to the convenience store around the corner, that okay?" Though it was stated like a question, the blonde already had her jacket on and was preparing to leave.
"Hey I'll come with you, it's not safe walking about alone," Harumi said casually as she peeled herself from the cushions of the sofa.
And just like that, the duo left the building in happy chatter leaving the room in silence.
"Really Mei, why do you have to be so picky? Beer is beer!" The young girl said with an exaggerated sigh, flopping back onto the couch.
"Hey, Mei said she would drink it, it was Yuzu who wanted to get her something else. If anything it's sweet." Willow defend, what was wrong with wanting your partner to be happy?
"Anyway, what is all going on tonight?" Ashton, who had been mostly quiet until now, asked as he took a long swig of his beer. It was no surprise, Matsuri had done get research on drinking in Scotland, she had come to the conclusion that both Willow and Ashton would be strong drinkers being from Scotland. That and she had witnessed it when they had all got together the first few times.
The young man didn't seem entirely uncomfortable in the room, he was initially shy and slightly withdrawn but over the few weeks of being forced into getting to know Mei's friends, he was more and more comfortable around the group. He has stuck to the brief, coming in slacks and a white shirt, slightly unbuttoned at the top. Now dressed slightly more to her tastes, Mei couldn't deny he was a handsome guy.
"I've planned the night out with a series of games and couples tests that mostly revolve around drinking and secrets. Lots of then are inappropriate, so I hope you don't mind the chance of kissing one of the other girls here." Matsuri's wicked grin not only made Mei cringe at the thought of having to kiss someone else but the possibility that Yuzu would have to kiss Jasmin. Obviously Matsuri wasn't made aware of why Jasmin had been invited nor did she question it. Yuzu had been friends with her for quite some time, there was no reason for suspicion. Hence the girl's obliviousness to Mei's dissatisfaction.
"I'm not too bothered," With a quirky smirk to his girlfriend, Ashton stated as he glanced over at Mei then back to his girlfriend to see if he had gotten the reaction he was fishing for.
A small clap indicated the back of the young man's head being smacked, puffed up cheeks on the offended Scott.
"You won't lay a hand on her," Willow defended as she placed her hand on Mei's shoulder, the comment coming off more as though she cared about it being Mei than anything else.
This sent the couple into a small squabble, Willow clearly winning as Ashton sunk into the sofa and tried to reassure that he was only kidding. Mei, however, couldn't help the side of her lips turning into a smile when his hand was swatted away from her cousin's waist.
"I hope not everything will involve physical contact, I mean we are all here as couples, it doesn't seem quite fair for that does it?" Narrowing her eyes at the younger girl, Mei hoped she looked as intimidating as she sounded. She didn't want anyone touching her girlfriend, and she certainly didn't was to be kissing anyone other than her either.
"Hey you read the email, you can leave if you want," Matsuri said as she drew herself from her seat.
"Besides, it's not like we're gonna start with that, gotta ease into that. I planned to start with back to back, but people have yet to arrive." There was obvious annoyance in the girl's voice, it's was almost half seven.
"That's expensive?" Harumi queried as she eyed the pack of alcohol the blonde picked up.
"Yeah I know," Yuzu laughed before placing it on the counter. "But Mei doesn't like normal beer, 'Bubbly piss water' where her exact words when she had it. So I don't mind buying her this, at least she actually likes it." Giving her signature big grin to her friend Yuzu laughed putting the bottles into her bag and motioned for the pair to leave.
"Anyway, what happened with Matsuri, she seemed happy?" Yuzu asked, it had been the entire night and Harumi had yet to message to say how things had gone with her girlfriend.
"Well I don't what you said, told her how I felt about it, and that it wasn't something I was ready for. Turns out she knew I was gonna say no, she just wanted me to talk about my feelings." Harumi said, slight annoyance in her voice at her girlfriend's plans.
"Well maybe you should try being more open with her, I mean she is your girlfriend?" Harumi had always been a reserved person, kept out of other people's business and kept her life private. At least, some of that had to be exempted for Matsuri. Right?
"Hey let's not judge my relationship when Mei just about dumped you for having a sex dream, at least me and Matsuri are open about that!" Grinning, Harumi couldn't hold back her laughter as she elbowed her friend in the side, spinning the conversation away from her.
Yuzu was sure Harumi had laughed for several minutes straight when she had told her what happened, she was looking for advice to spice things up and got mockery in return.
Cheeks brighter than a flamingo, the blonde couldn't help scanning the area to see if anyone else had heard the statement. "Hey! Keep your voice down, I told you that in confidence! Besides she didn't say 'no'!" Trying to keep her voice a hushed whisper but keep the force behind it, Yuzu tried to defend her pride. Though nothing had progressed any further in that department yet, the constant reminder of her embarrassment being brought up constantly didn't stop the heat in her cheeks.
"Oh really? Didn't know the super strict student council president would be into that kind of thing? But then again she did like a little..." Wiggling her finger to the blonde to imitate the action. Harumi bust into a fit of giggles when Yuzu tried to throw a hand over her mouth.
"Hey, if you don't want me to bring these things up then don't tell me about them." Laughing as she staggered back into line with the blonde, Harumi gave a small apology before continuing on.
"Okay okay, sorry. I know you like to gossip... what do you think Mei would say if she knew I knew?" Pursing her lips as her finger came to her chin, Harumi let a small hum out as if she was considering letting the young Aihara know of their gossiping.
Glancing at her friends reaction, Harumi almost chocked on her own laughter at the sheer white colour the blonde had turned. Surely the Yuzu knew she valued her life more than this? Harumi was one hundred percent sure if Mei found out half the information she knew, she would lose her life.
"I'm kidding Yuzucchie, Mei would kill me if I told her, that, or, you'd never get some ever again." Joking, Harumi was relieved to see the colour coming back into the blonde's cheeks.
"Geez don't play with me like that, I'm pretty sure my heart stopped!" Yuzu slouched as she dragged her feet to catch up with her friend.
"Besides, it's not just me who wants 'some', Mei can be pretty needy like that too. There's no way she would say 'never' again, It'd probably be like a two-week thing." Nodding her head assured of her observation, Yuzu smiled and didn't miss a stride. Mei found her irresistible, there was no way she wouldn't totally miss me!
"Oh yeah that sounds like Mei." Agreeing sarcastically, the two girls continued the back of forth bickering as they made their way back to house.
Entering the house, both Harumi and Yuzu were surprised to see the last couple having arrived, all eyes turning to them as they entered the warm room.
And scene.
