(no subject)

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...

"But... mm," Akiha's cut off by the kiss, but even if she hadn't been she doubts she could have come up with anything smart to say. She kisses back, not incredibly eager, but eager by her standards, tongue pressing against Nico's for a second before letting Nico lead the kiss, and when they break away Nico's smile is as cute as it is unnerving.

"Alright," she breathes.

She watches Nico toy with the button for a second, and then looks her in the eyes, a little pout forming on her face. "But no teasing."

She's complaining again.

Akiha isn't the type to pout much. The fact that the expression not only sticks around, but deepens, her lower lip pushed out and her eyes lowered, makes it clear that Nico's teasing is getting to her. She grumbles wordlessly as Nico slowly undoes the buttons, taking deep breaths through her nose to keep from interrupting herself.

Nico's teeth against her ear felt good, after all, even if the pace was about a hundred times slower than she'd like. With every button, Akiha's heart races faster and faster, the anticipation building. Akiha's grumbling fades away into shallow, uneven breathing, until Nico finally pulls away from her ear and looks down at her. Akiha looks up at her, lovingly.

At least until she ruins the mood by talking. Akiha blinks up at her and then narrows her eyes, the moment completely lost. "Not on your life, Yazawa."

That's her way of letting Nico know she's in a bad mood now.

"There's a difference between asking me to say that and asking me to..." Akiha's griping dies down into nothing as she realizes that, if anything, she's thinking more than usual.

What is she trying to prove here? Nico isn't liable to run off and tell anyone about this. Why is she trying to keep her pride even when it doesn't matter?

Akiha sighs, reaching her hand up and placing it on Nico's shoulder, grumpy expression dying down into an extremely awkward sweetness. She can't quite meet Nico's eyes, but she's smiling. Sort of.

"... I love you, and you're very cute," she says it as loud as she can manage, which is still just a whisper. She doesn't toss the word 'love' around much, if ever.

"That's all you're getting out of me." She looks up at Nico, embarrassed in a way that isn't just cute. She seems skittish, like half of her wants to slip out from under Nico and call it off. "I mean it."

Akiha doesn't feel like a good girl at the moment. To be blunt, she feels like an idiot. Something about expressing her affections out loud makes them seem silly to her, even childish. Her feelings for Nico are a lot more complex than just the word 'love' can get across.

But she's doing that thinking thing again. She takes a deep breath, shoulders visibly relaxing as she returns the kiss, and when she pulls away her smile doesn't need any qualifiers. She just looks happy. It's a look Nico hasn't seen much of before. Even when Akiha does look this happy, it's usually when they're both half-asleep.

"Could you say that again?" She asks, excited but a little nervous, realizing how silly and, again, childish she sounds halfway through, but pressing on anyway. Since she never says she loves Nico, there's not much need for Nico to return the gesture.

She doesn't necessarily like saying it, but she loves hearing it.

"Ni, Nico!" Akiha stammers as Nico suddenly tackles her, squirming beneath the shorter girl as they kiss and roll. Mostly rolling. Her head's spinning slightly as they finally stop, and Nico's still kissing, not in a romantic way but in a cute way.

As adorable - and Nico's never going to hear her use that word - as it is, Akiha reaches up as Nico presses their cheeks together, pushing her away. Not harshly, but still rejecting the ridiculously saccharine affection. "Nico. This is supposed to be seduction," Akiha chides, not as harsh as she'd usually be but still put off, confused by how suddenly Nico switched gears. If you ask her, what they had going earlier was basically ideal - too much sweetness makes her think it's forced.

"And I'm not twelve. You don't need to condescend. I was being sincere, you know."

Sorry for my late!

Akiha likes her best like this, she thinks. Nico's... Nico is cute, at times, but it usually rings a little hollow. Then again, Akiha tends to doubt everything, no matter who it comes from or how it's delivered. Only a few people have her complete trust.

Somehow, Nico's become one of them. Akiha bites her lip as Nico moves, wanting to break the incredibly close eye contact. Wanting, but not doing. It's way too intense. Akiha feels like she's frozen.

Even after Nico's done talking, Akiha just stares at her. Slowly, she shakes her head, reaching out to stroke Nico's hair. "I'm sorry," Akiha says, in not much more than a whisper. They're so close that Nico can hear it anyway.

"I know you're serious, I just..." Akiha realizes halfway through that she shouldn't be making excuses.

"Displays of affection are still new. Especially things like that." She only has her relationship with her brother to compare it to, even if it wasn't the same type of love. And as much as she cares about him, she was five years old the last time she told him she loved him. Their relationship is quiet, except when she's scolding him. The moments she remembers most fondly are the moments of mutual, comfortable silence, understanding each other without saying a word.

Definitely not Nico. For one thing, she hasn't known Nico her entire life. There are things Nico has no way of knowing without being told, even with as close as they've gotten.

She nuzzles her cheek against Nico's, slowly, like she's not sure if she's doing it right. "Give me some time to get used to it."

Slowly, she pulls a few inches away from Nico, looking her deep in the eyes once more. "I love you, very much." It's probably the first time Akiha's said that without prompting, without Nico outright telling her to. "Frankly, I'm terrible at showing it, but I do."

"I am not shy," Akiha pouts, saying the word like it's a curse, or some grave insult - and whatever she's about to follow that up with is cut off as Nico kisses her. It catches in her throat, coming out as a gasp into the kiss.

She definitely isn't gasping because of Nico's fingers on her breast. That would be absurd. "I am... reserved." That was a much better word. "I don't show my feelings just for the sake of it." They beat their heads against that wall plenty, when they'd first met. Even once they got past the initial hump and began to view each other as friends, things were awkward for a long while. Akiha had been to Nico's home about a dozen times before Nico was finally allowed into Akiha's.

"I hope you appreciate that, Nico. You're one of the few people I'm willing to be open with."
