Confessions

Chapter 6

Natsuki couldn't sleep well. Not that it was nessicarily a problem, but Yuri was constantly on her mind the entire night.

Visions of the girl danced through her head, and it didn't help that said girl was literally spooning her the entire time.

Natsuki sighed in frustration.

What were they? They had obviously gone beyond just friends, but what exactly were they?

She decided she'd ask Yuri tomorrow. Along with their talk about what had gone down before the book fair.

Natsuki stirred awake the next morning, turning over to come face to face with the beautiful angel, Yuri.

Yuri smiled sleepily at her as she sat up and stretched.

"Morning." Natsuki said with a yawn.

"Good morning." Yuri replied, standing from the bed.

She grabbed some clothes and without a word slipped into the bathroom to get dressed.

Natsuki pulled an outfit from her bag as well, quickly slipping it on as she heard the bathroom door unlock.

She was now wearing her black tights with a purple tank top, her hair in a bun atop her head.

Yuri stepped out, clad in a pink tank top and some black skinny jeans.

Natsuki almost gasped at the sight of the scars along Yuri's arms but decided against it before she hurt the taller girls feelings.

The two walked quietly down the stairs and sat on the couch in the living room.

Yuri leaned forward, switching the Xbox and TV on as she grabbed two controllers.

She tossed one to Natsuki, who caught it with a squeak.

Yuri selected some racing game and both girls began playing a few rounds.

Natsuki soon grew distracted from the game, staring off into space and gnawing at her lip as her character repeatedly ran off the side of the course.

Yuri noticed and paused the game, turning to face the pink haired girl who appeared lost in thought.

"Natsuki?" Natsuki jumped at the mention of her name, snapping out of her daze.

"What are we?" Natsuki blurted out suddenly, catching Yuri by surprise.

"Pardon?" Yuri asked, fluttering her eyelashes.

"What are we?" Natsuki repeated, unsure of how else to word the question knitting the back of her mind.

"Well, I certainly know what I'd like us to be..." Yuri trailed off, turning her head as a deep blush flooded her cheeks.

"You mean..?" Natsuki pressed, her chest fluttering in anticipation.

"I mean... Do you want to be my girlfriend?" Yuri asked, turning back to face Natsuki while biting her lip.

Natsuki didn't answer, instead claiming the girls lips against her own.

She pulled back, smiling widely.

"I'd love to." Natsuki answered happily.

Yuri brought her in for a hug as they just relaxed in each other's embrace.

"Natsuki?" Yuri asked after some time.

"Yes?" Natsuki asked, snuggling deeper against her new girlfriend.
