Ice Cream

Chapter 23

Monika slowly opened her eyes, squinting as a bit of sunlight shone in her eyes from a crack in the curtains.

She felt Sayori shift against her, remembering what had happened last night.

Monika blushed, smiling softly as she brushed the bangs from Sayori's eyes.

She leaned down, giving Sayori a soft kiss to her temple.

"Mrnfnr..." Sayori shifted, wrapping her arms tighter around Monika as she buried her face in her chest.

Monika chuckled, rubbing Sayori's back slowly.

Sayori grunted, her eyes fluttering open to rest upon Monika's chest against her face.

She backed up, gazing up into Monika's emerald green eyes.

"Good morning." Monika whispered, kissing her forehead.

"Morning..." Sayori blushed as she remembered what happened between the night before.

"Did you sleep well?" Monika cooed, smiling to her.

"Yeah... Did you?" Sayori asked.

"Mhm." Monika said, holding her close.

Sayori nodded, hiding her blushing face against Monika's chest again.

"I love you." Monika said suddenly, making Sayori look back up at her.

"I-I love you, too." Sayori said, stretching up to plant a quick kiss to Monika's smiling lips.

Monika leaned forward, kissing her lips again.

"I love doing that." Monika said, connecting their lips a third time.

"Me too." Sayori said with a smile.

Monika's eyes widened with a thought, letting out a gasp of panic.

"Shit! We're late for school!" Monika sat up quickly.

"Why don't we just skip? We're really late as it is." Sayori shrugged, yawning.

Monika stopped, turning to see Sayori rub the sleep from her eyes.

"Yeah.. I guess we could." Monika agreed, laying back down beside her.

Sayori pumped a fist in triumph, grinning widely at Monika.

"So what should we do?" Monika asked, not liking when she has nothing to do.

"Hmm..." Sayori pondered, playing with Monika's hair.

"Why don't I take you out on a date?" Monika suggested.

"You don't have to. I'd feel bad if you used what bit of money you had on me." Sayori shook her head.

"So? I'll get a job. Don't worry about it." Monika shrugged, smiling at her.

Sayori puffed out her cheeks, sternly glaring at her.

"Monii, I'll feeel baad." Sayori whined, clinging to Monika's arm as she pouted.

"And I'm saying, don't." Monika giggled, tapping her nose.

Sayori blushed, letting out a huff as she rolled her eyes.

"Fine. But I wanna pick what we do." Sayori bargained.

"Sure! What did you have in mind?" Monika agreed.

"I want to... Get ice cream!" Sayori said excitedly.

"Okay, then that's what we'll do." Monika nodded as Sayori whooped and cheered.
