Body Language
Routine is like rust.
The girls sat in silence on their usual seats, staring through their windows at how the sun fell on the same old buildings.
A certain turtle's lashes were becoming heavier after all those hours of traveling, while another only hoped to reach faster at her destination and start attacking on the fridge.
Gakisan, the only one on earth at that moment, found vaguely surprising the fact that the private van made a sudden turn to the left, right after the phone of the driver flipped shut. There was no traffic in the front either, so she decided to ask away what was concerning her.
"Yoshida-san, I believe this isn't the way to our homes."
The middle aged man looked at the sub leader through the mirror "I'm sorry Niigaki-san, your choreographer just called. I was ordered to bring you to the rehearsal room."
Eri shot up from her doze, rubbing her eyes "She did what?!"
"But we're just coming back from the bus tour!" The driver was feeling guilty seeing LinLin's eyes reflect with sadness, but he shook his shoulders because there was nothing he could do. "Can't we skip this? I'm very tired..."
"I'm afraid not, Lin-san."
She sighed heavily and threw herself back on the chair, while Eri stretched and yawned loudly.
"Fine." Gaki rummaged through her purse for the wallet "Let's grab some coffee, and then we can go. Why don't we make her wait a bit?"
They were more than an hour late, but they knew for sure no one would blame them. Before opening the door, Gaki feared of interrupting an intense dance rehearsal, but she was greatly relieved to see that the 5 Morning Musumes were having a break.
Kamei immediately found her way to the couch where JunJun and Reina were chatting, and LinLin ran straight to her leader that was reading something in a corner. Alone in front of the door, Gaki dropped her bag and proceeded to take off her sweatshirt, remembering how much she had missed Ai in the meantime.
When she turned to look at her once more, she saw how LinLin was lured away by the tinfoil sound of candies given by Eri to Sayu and Aika. She took full advantage of this opportunity and stepped closer, greeting her cutely. Ai wasn't fully facing her though, but she still replied, a noticeable monotony in her voice.
"How was your trip?"
No one was close enough to hear what they were talking, so Gaki felt free in saying what was really on her mind. "Three words : tiring and boring."
"How come?" Ai still didn't look up from the Seishun Collection song sheets.
"I was caught up with loads of events that I can't even count on my fingers. Then, at nights, I was alone without someone to talk to, because Kame and LinLin were already asleep at 10 pm"
"I see. But you surely had pleasant memories of it too, right?"
"Yeah, ... I suppose. Anyway, how was it to be 4 days apart from me?"
She scooted closer to her leader so that their legs were touching.
"Was singing Melodies with Eri one of those memorable experiences too?"
"Huh?" Gaki's eyes shot wide open at the sudden change of topic.
Her dark glare was still directed downwards "Whose idea was it?"
"Uhm... I'm pretty sure it was hers but-"
"Oh. I bet you enjoyed touching those thighs and that ass and the rest of the assets, because you're naughty like that."
"What? What's with all these questions Aichan...?" The leader stared absently at the pile of paper in front of her, her brows furrowed in anger. "Could it be that you are... jealous?"
Ai sighed helplessly, then turned to the side to face Risa for the first time in 4 days "Jealous of who?"
"I don't know... Eri maybe?"
The leader started to chuckle sarcastically, in a rather exaggerate manner, unaware that she was scaring Risa in her attempt to cover up the obvious. She got up quickly and walked away without looking back, stopping only when she was at LinLin's side. Risa exhaled, turning a longing glance back up at the ceiling to stop herself from crying.
Around 10 minutes later, with everyone changed in their newest single outfits, the harsh rehearsals started. Oddly enough, the sub leader was too occupied with her own thoughts to even look tired the least. All her muscles ached and a yawn threatened to come out, but she didn't let it show.
After being called in the meeting room to debate various things with her manager, Gakisan walked down the hallway towards the dressing rooms area. Little did she know that behind her curtain was a very special someone, growing more impatient by the second.
Pulling the thick material away, a pair of hands linking around her neck gave her the fright of her life. She had no time to gasp or to react, since she was pulled inside quickly with a familiar mouth crushing against her own, making her heart leap of joy inside her chest.
The older one's lips moved softly and slowly, but with a devilish passion that heated generously her lover's whole being. Snaking her arms along Ai's hips, Risa's fingers played with the hem of her pants, until she finally pushed them down. She gasped quietly at the feeling of Gaki's palms moving slowly on her butt, their tongues mimicking what the skilled hands were doing down below. Feeling her leader's legs slightly parting, the younger squeezed the firm back generously.
Oh how long she had missed this. 4 days, was it...?
Ai brought her hands downwards to place them above her lover's, their fingers intertwining desperately as she pushed her chest more into Risa.
A smirk creased the corner of her bruised mouth as Ai backed away panting. She wasn't expecting her to be this bold with the tired muscles and everything.
"What were you saying? ... That I'm the naughty one?" Gaki whispered, on the verge of laughing. Ai only shoved her into the wall angrily "Shut up."
The sub leader, still giggling, made a mouth-zip sign. When she noticed Ai was staring intensely at her chest, she took off her shirt immediately and glanced over at the approaching leader.
"Ooh what are you gonna do to me Aichan~?"
She smiled charmingly "You'll see."
It was hard for her to step closer with the pants down at her ankles, which amused Gaki even more. Her smile wiped off though when Ai pulled her by the hair towards her face to kiss her again. Gaki complained with a soft groan but everything was only enticing her unbearably, to the point that she felt herself getting moister.
With the other hand, Ai unhook the bra and snatched it away, moving her mouth on the slope of her breast. A single moan rippled through her at the sensation, her hands smacking the wall for support.
Leader loved how quickly Gaki's defensive weapons had weakened "Could Kamei ever make you feel like this?"
She repeated the action with the other side of the chest, feeling how she was getting tingly herself "Say it."
Her fingers glided downwards in a circling motion, up until they reached their goal.
"A-Aichan... "
She twitched nervously several times under her girlfriend but delayed her answer on purpose.
"You're not in the mood to make jokes anymore, are you, Gakisan? C'mon say it."
"No, she.. she can't." Ai smirked playfully and kissed her shoulder. "...Are you h-happy now?"
Of course she was happy. This is what it was all about: Ai's big fat ego had her property back, no more jealousy, no more doubt and no other hands on her lover. Other than hers that is.
It doesn't happen too often when the dressing room is completely empty for them to have a little fun, and Ai might as well help her sub leader get rip of all that tiredness.
