Be My Kitty

Morning Before the Wedding

(Shino Asada)

I look plainly in the mirror as I finish tying ribbons at both sides of my hair that frames my face. My hair has grown a bit, now the tips reaching my shoulders, its a bit harder to manage, maybe I should give it a trim.

My eyes trail down my body and examine the dress Suguha picked out for me. I felt out of place in the dress since it didn't suit my tastes but I knew if it were up to me, I'd rather look for something comfortable rather than something elegant. I knew that wouldn't do for a wedding.

Still, my eyes still kept stealing glances at my favorite sweater hanging from the chair next to me. It'd be perfect to cover up at least my arms and maybe some cleavage.

I look at my face and tilted my head to look at it at a different angle, my face seems to look foreign without my glasses, strange even, but I'm sure I'll get used to it.

I heard a knock on the door.

"Ready Shino?"

Kazuto, I hadn't seen him all dressed up before so I was a bit excited to see how he'd look in a tux.

"Yes," I replied, turning away from the mirror, now facing the door as it slightly opened and saw Kazuto's head pop in.

"Is the rest of you going to come in or?" I crossed my arms over my chest once I realized the dress Suguha had picked showed some cleavage. Not much though, there's nothing much to show really.

Kazuto had a slight blush on his cheeks as he stared at the dress then struggled to make eye contact.

"So?" I asked as I took the edges if the dress in my hands.

"You look good," he nervously scratched his cheek. He seemed slightly surprised by my choice in attire but I could tell he didn't mind. I guess he likes this kind of thing, where girls dress all feminine.

"Although," he added before he paused. His finger was still at his cheek as he still struggled to meet me eye to eye.

"Yes?" I raised a bro, intrigued.

"I prefer your usual attire," he added, blush on his face spreading like wild fire.

"Oh? How so?" I replied.

"Don't get me wrong, you look stunning but, it's not you," he glanced at me before he took another pause.

"And, it's a bit too revealing, what if Tsuboi see's," he pouts. I held back a giggle.

"Oh so that's what this is about," I smirked.

"Not just Tsuboi," he mumbled with a deeper pout.

"People we don't know will be at this wedding, what if they stare at," he paused once again before he takes a glimpse at the short dress, revealing my legs then to the revealing top.

"That,"

"No one's going to stare at a flat chested, noodle legged girl," I rolled my eyes.

"Am I a no one then?" He frowned, and genuinely caught me by surprise.

"Because I can stare for hours," he walked further in as he slowly approached me. I'm getting a strange sensation at the pit of my stomach.

I closed my eyes as I saw his face neared mine, but never felt a pair of lips meet mine, nor my skin. What I did feel was arms wrapping around me, then fabric.

I opened my eyes to see Kazuto putting on my favorite sweater on my shoulders.

"Now that's an improvement, don't you agree?"

I admit that I felt safer in my own skin. My sweaters have always been like my safety blanket, my armor, covering all my insecurities.

"What will Sugu think?" I asked..

"More important question is what do you think," he responded. He held my shoulders and turned me around to face the mirror. I looked at my full reflection from head to toe.

I started to like how my hair was growing to my shoulders, I loved the dress as long as I had something to cover up most exposed areas, and my face no longer looked so strange as it did before.

"You look beautiful," he rested his cheek against the top of my head.

I felt beautiful. No one has ever gifted me with anything more precious than Kazuto just did. Making me feel beautiful and safe in my own skin.

I know I know, shame on me for making a filler chapter. X3

But hey, a chapter is better than none. :'3

Anyway, we're finally getting around to the wedding and after that, our finale. I hope.

This procrastination is real, I need help. (0∆0)

Anyway, I hope at least you enjoyed the filler. I admit I should update more before I lose the remaining audience I have left. (; - ;)

I just have been very addicted to playing this one game called RPG Toram Online. (Totally not advertising.) XD Also just life, thinking, family stuff, hobbies.

Now I will stop trying to make excuses and hopefully get to the last few chapters.

Until next time,
