Though Nico doesn't like admitting it aloud -- she'd rather make claims of a slew of nameless, mysterious exes who had dated her in some undisclosed point in the past -- Akiha is her first. First everything, really. First hand-hold, first kiss, first hands under shirt, first -- everything. Every step they take into their relationship is brand new to her. And along the way, Nico's learned a lot if things about herself she doesn't think she would've found out otherwise.

Like just how much she likes having control over Akiha.

It kind of crept up on her; Akiha is so stoic and stuffy so much of the time, it was only natural for Nico to try and poke holes in her composure. It was like a game, and the prize was the cute flustered faces Akiha would make.

But over time, bit by bit, she came to realize the delight she takes in it extends much further and deeper than simple lighthearted teasing. She wanted more. To strip Akiha of her armor completely, and take over her. Ever since the thought occurred to her, she couldn't get it off her mind.

It's probably a little weird.

Still, bringing it up, Nico tried to sound as nonchalant as possible, like it's no big deal at all, like she's not scared of being pegged as some creepy pervert. By some manner of miracle, it worked, and Akiha agreed to try it once.

"Okay, cool," Nico had said, swallowing subtly to try and force her heart back down her throat.

That was last week. They said they'll do it next time they're alone. And they are alone, right now, in Akiha's bedroom that Nico always secretly found far bigger than should ever be necessary. Yet somehow it feels cramped now, like there's not enough air to breathe. They're both thinking about it, she's sure -- at the very least, she knows she's thinking about it. Yet they've barely even kissed today, only awkwardly exchanged various happenings from the past week, the distance between them as stiff as an actual, tangible wall.

Asking about it was one thing, but how the heck does she go about initiating something like this?!

The room falls into a tense silence, and Nico decides this is her chance. She clears her throat. "So, uh... do you want to do it? Like we talked about?" Her eyes can't stay on Akiha beyond the first three words, and her face grows a very telling, splotchy pink. Uuugh, this is off to a terrible start already...

University means a new start. With all the bittersweet feelings graduation brought, the approaching start of the school year sweeps it all aside and fills Nozomi's chest with bright new anticipation. A lot of things are different -- something Nozomi used to dread, but living in it now, it's more exciting than stressful.

Like moving in with Eli.

It wasn't even something that required thought or discussion; it seemed obvious to the both of them. Nico chose to stay at home and go to a nearby school, so that she can continue supporting her family. That left just Nozomi and Eli. Nozomi and Eli, who got into university together; who are never, ever going to let themselves grow apart.

They begin their moving progress a week and a half before school starts. Had you asked Nozomi, she'd say that's more time than they really needed, but she knows Eli likes to be on top of things, so she didn't protest. Their budget is limited, so they opted for a studio apartment -- it's close to campus, neat and relatively spacious, so it's good enough for the two of them.

Their beds have little distance between them, but they don't have a problem with that.

They get there in early noon to unpack their belongings. Though the number of boxes didn't seem that imposing at first, it's eight thirty in the evening when they give up and call it a day. (Well, Nozomi gave up, and Eli mercifully agreed.)

Exhausted, Nozomi flops back onto her bed, limbs spread out listlessly. "Ahh, we worked all day and we didn't even unpack half..."

She sighs up at the ceiling.

"... But it's already starting to feel a little like home." Her head tilts towards Eli, as a little smile plays on her lips. "Right?"
