Hold Me! [MaryxRirikaff]

09

Ririka sat at the bed with a blanket covering her body. A minute later Mary walk into the room with a cup of hot milk in her hand

"Here you go..." Mary hand Ririka the cup of hot milk and sat next to the platinum-haired girl

Ririka didn't know how to react. She has a lot of thought in her mind and she has a lot of mixing feelings. She took the hot milk and stared at it. Both of them sat silently

"Hey princess what's wrong?" Mary gently grab Ririka's chin, making the other girl look at her

Ririka quickly turns her head away from Mary's eyes. She didn't want to make single eye contact with her

"Look, if it's about Tsuzura. I'm sorry okay? I know I should pay more attention to you. Please forgive me.." Mary hugged Ririka and stroked her hair "I can't stand seeing you like this. I love you no matter what. Only you and I promise you that!"

Ririka let out a tear. She sobbing at Mary's shoulder "I'm sorry too. I'm sorry for being so dramatic and... And I'm sorry I lost the necklace!" The tears keep falling heavily from her eyes

"Shh... It's okay. I told you already. I didn't care about that. We can buy the new one. You could catch a cold back there and it will be more terrible than losing the necklace!" Mary said, comforting Ririka

"I shouldn't be so careless..."

"It's not your fault princess. If you want, we can search for it tomorrow..." Mary pull away from the hug to wipe Ririka's tears with her thumb "All you have to do right now is get some sleep" She smiled and patted her girlfriend's hair

Ririka nodded. She finished the hot milk to the last drop and lie down. Mary also did the same. They were facing each other

"Close your eyes. I will company you" Mary said and rubbed the other girl cheek

"How about Tsuzura? She's going to sleep with us right?"

Mary giggled "Don't worry about her. She gets along with Yumeko and Yumemi very well. Those two ask her to sleep with them. So it means, tonight will only be you and me"

"Goodnight baby..." Ririka said and closed her eyes

"Goodnight princess.." Mary kissed Ririka on the forehead

It was 7 in the morning and everyone already woke up. Sayaka, Mary, and Yumeko was preparing breakfast while the others were playing a board game in the living room

As the breakfast ready, they sat at the dining table and ate their breakfast. After filling their stomach with waffles, bacon, and eggs they continue playing the board game and watching a movies

Ririka call for Mary's name in the kitchen. Mary get up and went to her girlfriend

"Let's go to the lake right now. I wanted to search for the necklace" Ririka begged

Mary chuckled "Okay, okay let's go search for it"

After 6 minutes of walking, they arrived at the lake and didn't wait for a long time, they go to to the water and started to search for the necklace

They keep searching and searching and without realizing it, half an hour have passed

"I think we should stop here princess" Mary said while wiping her sweat

"But-"

Mary took off the half shape of a heart from her neck and dropped it to the water. Ririka gasped

"What the?!"

"The necklace will find each other by itself. You don't have to think about it again. Let's go back to the cabin okay?" Mary wraps her hand on Ririka's shoulder "I'll buy you a new one.."

Ririka nodded. She feels a little bit sad but she knows that Mary was right. They get out of the water and went back to the cabin

TIME SKIP, ONE WEEK LATER~

"So why you ask us to come here?" Kirari asked Mary as she sat in her chair. All of the gang except Ririka was gathered at the restaurant after they receive a message from Mary last night

"Err there's something I need to tell you guys. Well, it most likely asking for your opinion..." Mary said in a nervous tone "I think it's time for me to do the proposal"

"What?!" Kirari look at her, try to understand more clearly "If you going to propose, is that mean you want to marry my nee-chan?"

"Yes of course. That's the purpose of the proposal. So what do you guys think?" Mary look at all of them, waiting for their opinion

"I know a day like this will come but doesn't all of this just too early?" Kirari speaking her mind out

"I know that but I wanted to make Ririka mine as soon as possible!" Mary explained. She has already made her mind. Yup she will marry Ririka

"But we still a college students Mary. Getting married this early will take a lot of responsibility you know?" Kirari said

"Come on Kirari. It's up to Mary. If it's the best for them, don't we have to support them?" Yumeko open her mouth after sat silently to think

"Yeah. I guess Yumeko right Kirari. Why don't you be more like Mary? She loves Ririka so much and already wanted to propose her" Sayaka chuckled and playfully rolled her eyes

"You jealous don't you?" Kirari grabs Sayaka's chin making the other girl look at her "You know we can marry right now if you want" She smirked. Sayaka's blushed and turn away from Kirari

"Well, then I guess go on and marry my nee-chan. We will help you" Kirari stand up and walk to Mary "But if you dare making her heart broke, I will kill you" She threatened

"Not this threat again" Mary role her eyes "Look. Getting married is a serious thing. I want to marry her because I love her and I will do anything to protect her"

"Make sure you not wrong Mary"

"I will!"
