And off we go!
Story XIII: I Dare You Final Part (MaYuki)9 days, 4 hours, 3 minutes and 26 seconds. That was what it had taken for Mayuyu to give up trying to talk to Yukirin regarding that little incident between them. Knowing that the captain was avoiding her on purpose saddened her. Every time Mayuyu opened her mouth to speak about non-work related matters, there would always be an excuse for the captain to be somewhere else. Even small talks on topics such as the weather, fashion or food were made impossible as well. There were times that Mayuyu had considered the option of cornering Yukirin just to get Yukirin to talk but she knew the older girl well enough to know that using force would only drive Yukirin further away from her.
Mayuyu hated the distance.
She hated more the fact that she could not do anything about it. Yukirin being all distant was killing her mood more and more as days go by. Not even her favourite anime could lift her spirit up…. Well, unless Akiyama Mio somehow had miraculously came out from the TV screen. But there was totally impossible, of course. Mayuyu felt like she was undergoing symptoms of withdrawal, and Yukirin was the drug. She had grown far too attached to the older girl and she blamed Yukirin for that. Yukirin had always did treated her differently compared to the rest of Team B - Ask anyone within the group and they would agree that the captain spoiled her too much. How can you not like someone who made you feel like you were special? Besides, there was that unexplainable attraction too. That strange fixation that the younger girl had on the captain was what had always kept Mayuyu’s eyes being magnetically pulled towards the older girl’s direction.
To say that Mayuyu regretted what had took place that day, she was not. The petite girl had no regret whatsoever over that. If anything, she was more disappointed with the way Yukirin was acting. Perhaps it was a miscalculation on her part for thinking that Yukirin would have wanted the same thing as she did. Even if that was not the case, Mayuyu thought that Yukirin would not shut her off, not like this, at least. Yukirin didn’t even gave her a chance - didn’t even gave THEM a chance. Mayuyu could tell that she held a place in the captain’s heart, but like the nature of their current relationship, the knowledge was unclear. That day in the dressing room, Mayuyu was pretty confident that they would be able to put a full stop to their ambiguity and define themselves as real lovers.
It was ironic, really. That one time Mayuyu decided to be an optimist, it backfired on her.
------------- •ᴥ• -------------- •ᴥ• ------------------ •ᴥ• --------------
After 15 days, 7 hours, 9 minutes and 1 second of awkwardness and heavy tension, something surprising happened.
The captain of team B had willingly chose to stand next to the one that she had been carefully avoided for the past two weeks during a group briefing that afternoon. What was even more surprising was the fact that Yukirin had sneakily slid her hand down Mayuyu’s arm and linked their hands together, an action that the captain always did before the whole you-know-what occured. None of the briefing details were registered on the cyborg idol’s brain as her sole attention was focused on the older girl and the warmth she felt on her right hand. Takamina’s voice became nothing more than a background noise as Mayuyu casted a glance at the taller girl every now and then in her attempt to solve the mystery called Kashiwagi Yuki. However, the captain natural expression remained unchanged throughout the briefing. The way Yukirin was acting, it was as though as what had took place between them for the past fifteen days never happened at all. Besides the strange way the captain was acting, there was also something different about the taller girl but Mayuyu could not place her finger on it.
Once they were dismissed and everyone started leaving, a tug on her hand caused Mayuyu to bring her steps nearer toward the captain. Mayuyu looked up and reflecting back at her were the eyes that could forever held Mayuyu captive. The intensity in those brown orbs made her throat felt dry. The captain looked like she was about to say something when they were interrupted.
“Mayuyu! What are you doing? Let’s go!”
Hirajima Natsumi, the leader of the sub-unit Mayuyu was in was shouting from across the room, looking rather impatient. Come to think of it, Watarirouka Hashiritai did have a photoshoot scheduled on that day.
The look on Yukirin’s face showed that the captain was not too happy with Nacchan’s existence at that moment. A defeated sigh came out of her mouth as she loosened her hold on younger girl’s hand. Eyes darting back and forth between the two leaders, a reluctant Mayuyu finally released Yukirin’s hand after a few seconds of hesitation. No matter how badly she wanted to stay, work had to come first. Just as Mayuyu was about to leave, Yukirin’s hand caught her wrist.
“I’ll talk to you later.” The captain promised with a smile.
Mayuyu smiled back and held onto those words.
------------- •ᴥ• -------------- •ᴥ• ------------------ •ᴥ• --------------
Yukirin’s later never came.
A frustrated Mayuyu threw her phone on the bed when she saw that there was no notification telling her that Yukirin had left her any call or emails. The device bounced off the mattress and fell onto the floor. Panicked that she might have accidentally broken her phone, Mayuyu rushed over to pick it up and breathed in relief when she saw that it was unharmed. After placing her phone carefully on the bedside, Mayuyu flopped down on her bed and covered her face with her pillow before screaming her heart out. Although the act did nothing to help with her situation, she did felt much better afterward. The anime lover hugged the pillow tightly and let out a loud sigh.
Why must Yukirin taunt her this way?
The older girl had gotten Mayuyu hopes up earlier that afternoon and then cruelly left Mayuyu hanging with no form of contacts or whatsoever for the rest of the day.
Mayuyu held up the pillow that she was hugging and begun to shake it violently, as if the pillow was the girl by the name Kashiwagi Yuki.
“Yukirin no baka. Baka! Baka! Baka!”
The childish action stopped when Mayuyu heard her mother called out her name, asking her to come down. The irritated girl growled. She didn’t want to be bothered so she planned to pretend not hearing anything. The plan was canceled when she heard her mom called out her name again, loudly this time. Grumpily, Mayuyu made her way out of her room and down the stairs. Her eyes widened as she saw what, or rather who, was waiting for her in the living room.
Talking to her parent was none other than the person who had left her feelings in disarray.
Instead of feeling happy to see the girl that she had been waiting to hear from, Mayuyu’s insides began to boil with anger. How dare the captain showed up at her place after leaving her feeling on edge for the entire day. Yukirin could have at least sent her an email, for God’s sake!
“Mayu-chan, why didn’t you tell us that Yuki-chan was coming?”
“It’s not Mayu’s fault, it’s mine. I came without telling her. I’m sorry for intruding at such hour, Watanabe-san.” Yukirin politely answered in Mayuyu’s place, bowing her head slightly.
“No, no, no, it’s alright Yuki-chan. You’re always welcomed here.” Hearing that, the idol flashed her camera smile at Mayuyu’s mother. Mayuyu wanted to cringe at the sight.
“Mayu-chan, why don’t you bring Yuki-chan to your room? And Yuki-chan, if you want to sleep over tonight, feel free do so.” Mayuyu’s mother then bid goodnights to the two girls and retreated to the master bedroom.
Still furious, Mayuyu climbed the stairs to her room without saying a word. Once the door was completely shut, in all too fast motion, Mayuyu found her back pressed against the cold hard wood and her lips covered with a pair of warm ones. Just like that, everything was forgotten. The anger, anxiety, confusion, sadness and whatever mix of emotion that Mayuyu felt earlier was casted aside. Though it seemed unfair to Mayuyu that Yukirin got away with her actions with just a kiss but at the sensation of Yukirin’s lips moving against her own, all of those things didn’t seem to matter anymore.
How can this 3-D person affect her so much?
Mayuyu melted. The amount of raw passion that was included into the kiss was enough to turn her legs into jelly. If it weren’t for the fact that Yukirin was holding her by her waist, Mayuyu would have been on the floor as their kiss progressively became deeper and deeper. The two girls only broke the kiss due to the lack of oxygen. Faces flushed, chests heaving up and down, eyes dark with desires; there was no denying that both were mutually attracted to each other.
“Was that your idea of talking?”
Mayuyu asked in a teasing manner once she had steadied her heartbeat. Yukirin smiled guiltily. Clearly what had taken place a few minutes ago was not in the captain’s original plan.
“Gomen. I guess I just had to do that first.”
The younger girl laughed softly at the answer. Yukirin pulled the smaller girl closer and Mayuyu was drowned in the taller girl’s scent. It was somewhat a mixture of vanilla and lavender. Very tantalizing.
“I missed you so much….” Yukirin breathed out. The sincerity and the longing in Yukirin’s voice made Mayuyu’s hands that were gripping on the captain’s shirt pulled on harder. The younger girl replied back by saying that she missed the older girl too. Yukirin lifted Mayuyu’s chin up with one hand and gave Mayuyu a soft peck on the lips.
“Sorry for being such a jerk the past few days.” The captain apologized.
The hand that was on the younger girl’s chin reached for the dangling, messy raven tresses and tucked them safely away behind the girl’s ear. Mayuyu, who felt her cheeks were getting warmer at the affectionate action, buried her face in Yukirin’s neck in her attempt to hide her blush.
“You always have been a jerk… A jerk who doesn’t reply to my emails.” Mayuyu murmured. The words were scolding but the tone was a playful one. It resulted in a giggle and an apologetic smile from Yukirin.
“You’re still angry about that?”
Mayuyu did not reply straight away but shifted slightly in Yukirin’s embrace so that she was now leaning on the taller girl’s shoulder. The older girl watched in fascination as Mayuyu took one of her hand with her own and started playing with it absentmindedly, caressing the slender fingers with her thumb.
She intertwined their fingers briefly, let go and laced them together again.
“Maa… A little bit?”
Yukirin gave the smaller hand a gentle squeeze and brought it to her lips.
“Forgive me.” The older girl murmured her apology as she placed butterfly kisses on the fingertips.
“… But emails are so troublesome, you know.” The additional comment earned the captain a light pinch on her thigh.
“Tsk. Excuses.”
Unknown to Mayuyu, Yukirin had silently made a promise to herself to try harder in replying Mayuyu’s emails.
“Ne, Mayu?”
The girls by now had moved onto the bed for comfort and were now cuddling each other.
“Hmm?” A half-asleep Mayuyu answered. The coziness of being held by her dearest captain made Mayuyu felt slightly drowsy.
“Up for a dare?” Yukirin continued while Mayuyu was fighting to stay awake.
“A dare?” Mayuru still replied although she already had her eyes closed, after finding much difficulty in keeping them open a minute longer, a moment longer, a second longer.
“Hai. A dare.”
The younger girl was uninterested. She had enough of the dare games they had. Look at what happened the last time.
“If you manage to do it, I’ll give you a reward.”
That bit caught Mayuyu’s attention. Her eyes snapped open and amazingly, she was not sleepy anymore.
“Oh? What kind of reward?” Mayuyu asked excitedly, eyes shining with excitement.
Seeing the younger girl sudden enthusiasm over a possible reward made Yukirin wanted to laugh. Mayuyu was still very much a child at heart.
“Complete the dare first then only you will know it.” The captain cunningly played with her words to tempt the other girl. Her mission succeeded - the fish took the bait.
“Okay. What’s the dare then?” Mayuyu felt challenged.
“I’m warning you, it’s not going to be easy...” A frown appeared on Mayuyu’s face. Was the captain trying to intimidate her?
“… Sometimes you may feel like you wanna give up in the future but I would love it if you wouldn’t quit halfway. And this dare has no time limit so you have to continue doing it for the rest of your life.”
Another frown appeared and the younger girl squinted her eyes in suspicion.
“Your dare sounds strange. What exactly do you want me to do?”
Yukirin’s eyes twinkled.
“Watanabe Mayu, I dare you to love Kashiwagi Yuki.”
The younger girl raised her brows at the dare, surprised. After getting over the initial shock, happiness flooded into her heart. It was not an obvious declaration of ‘I love you’ but Mayuyu was a hundred percent sure that the captain had meant that behind the dare. Are they officially together now? Mayuyu pondered. Her thoughts slowly drifted from the word ‘official’ to ‘girlfriend’ to the things that lovers do and Mayuyu blushed. The thoughts made her want to kiss the captain again, and maybe do so much more.
“Say…” Brown eyes slowly traveled down “If I said that I have been doing that for quite a while now…” only to make their way to the older girl’s lips. “….Does it still count as dare completed?”
Mayuyu absentmindedly stared at that pink, warm, tasty, sexy flesh in front of her.
“Ah… In that case, I guess you’ll have to prove it to me then...” Yukirin noticed what Mayuyu was looking at but she was totally unaware that she herself was very, very slowly leaning downwards as she talked to the dazed girl. It was when only when Mayuyu’s face was just few centimetres away that Yukirin realized her doing. Their close proximity enabled the captain to feel and sense the face, nose, lips and exhales that was just a short distance away.
“… You know, just to make sure you really completed it.”
Mayuyu took the words as the green light to proceed. She closed in the unforgiving distance between them and captured the lips that she grew addicted to. Unlike their previous kiss earlier which was rushed, raw and full of need, this time, it was slow, sensual and filled with emotions. The younger girl gently sucked on the elder’s lower lip and lingered on briefly before pulling away. Mayuyu wanted the captain to know exactly how she felt.
“Good enough as a proof?”
An anxious Mayuyu asked. However, her worries faded when she opened her eyes to find the captain looked like in a state of pure bliss.
“I think I’m going to need more proofs in the future.” Yukirin reopened her eyes too, and warm smile made its way to her face. “But for now, that will do.”
“So, what’s my reward?”
Mayuyu didn’t really need a reward, but since it had been promised, there was no harm in claiming what was rightfully hers.
“I’ll give you my heart.”
As happy as Mayuyu was with the reward, the cheesiness of that line made the younger girl giggled.
“You’re so lame sometimes.” Mayuyu smiled to herself as she circled her arms around Yukirin’s waist and laid her head on the taller girl’s chest. She closed her eyes and listened to the soothing sound of her lover’s heartbeat.
“How do I know that you have given me your heart?” Mayuyu jokingly said.
No answer came. The hand that was continuously stroking Mayuyu’s hair stopped, leading Mayuyu to think that she might have joked about the wrong thing. A surprise squeal came out of younger girl’s mouth when Yukirin suddenly flipped their position and pinned her down on the bed.
“Shall I prove it to you too?”
The older girl’s eyes were fueled with lust and wants as she said those words. Mayuyu unconsciously licked her lips at the view of a bold and daring Yukirin on top of her. Her breathing and heartbeat instantly quickened in anticipation of what the captain was planning to do.
“Oh, please do.”
