Akiha's face looks so cute with her lip sticking out like that, Nico almost doesn't mind the complaint. Almost. She leans back down, this time to kiss the spot beneath her ear. Her voice has an air of incredulousness to it, clearly exaggerated tenfold just to tease. "What, you're still ordering me around? You're really not getting the hang of it, are you..."

All the same, Nico's fingers skillfully pop open the first button, before setting about their slow descent downwards. She keeps her mouth busy by kissing and nipping at her ear, teeth tugging lightly on the lobe. There's a distinct lack of urgency behind her movements -- as if she has all the time in the world.

Akiha can tell her not to tease all she wants; the one to decide that is Nico.

"Okay," she concludes by the time she reaches the third button, and breaks away from Akiha's ear to look down at her. "Since you're struggling, I'll help you practice. First of all, say 'Nico-nii is the cutest in the universe, I love you' three times."

Her face is one hundred percent serious.
