Valentine's Day

Chapter 25

"So, Moni. It's you and Sayo's anniversary in three days, right?" Natsuki asked as the girls sat down in Sayori's hospital room.

"Yeah! This Valentine's Day marks two years since we started dating." Sayori said, taking Monika's hand in her own.

Natsuki and Yuri smiled at the couple who were gazing into each other's eyes.

I wonder if Natsuki wants to do anything special...

I hope Yuri says she wants to do something so I don't have to ask...

The pair looked at each other, a blush filling both of their faces as they smiled lopsided to one another.

"Well, congratulations." Yuri said with a nod, turning her focus back to the couple.

"Thank you." Monika answered sheepishly, rubbing the back of her neck with her free hand.

"We're probably just gonna hang out here all day. I'm kinda under house arrest here right now." Sayori chuckled.

"Why's that?" Natsuki asked.

"Eh.. They figured out I forged my mom's signature when I was getting admitted." Sayori shrugged.

"Oh..." Natsuki nodded in understanding.

"Well, we oughta go now. See ya around, Sayo!" Natsuki called, taking Yuri's hand as she advanced for the door.

~~~

And so the official couples day finally came.

"Hey, baby." Yuri kissed Natsuki's forehead gently, stirring her from her slumber.

"Hey, sweetheart." Natsuki mumbled groggily.

"Do you know what day it is?" Yuri asks with a giggle.

"I don't know. What day is it?" Natsuki whispered, sitting up as she rubbed her eyes.

Yuri hugged her lover from the side, smiling into the crook of her neck.

"It's Valentine's Day~!" Yuri sang softly, kissing Natsuki's neck lovingly.

"Really?" Natsuki yawned with a smile at Yuri's action.

"Yep. What do you wanna do today? Anything in mind?" Yuri asked, tilting her head a bit.

"Hmm... Wanna go out or something?" Natsuki suggested.

"Are you asking me on a date, Natsuki?" Yuri smirked.

"I... U-Uh... Yes...?" Natsuki blushed to the tips of her ears, even the tip of her nose burning at Yuri's question.

"Was that a question or a statement?" Yuri smirked wider, her eyes holding nothing but mischief and love.

"Uh, yes. Yeah. Let's go out on a... D-D-Date." Natsuki nodded weakly.

Yuri kissed her passionately, tangling her fingers into Natsuki's short pink hair.

Natsuki wrapped her arms around Yuri's waist tightly, kissing back with rivaling passion.

The kiss soon got intimate as Yuri slipped her tongue into Natsuki's mouth when the small girl let out a soft moan.

Yuri climbed on top of Natsuki, moving her hands to support her weight as Natsuki pulled her even closer.

They parted for air, a string if saliva trailing from their tongues and glistening in the light spilling in from the window.

"So... Ready to go?" Yuri asked with a smirk.
