This is a story of love and lust, seduction and jealousy, friendship and betrayal. Not suitable for under 18 years old. Readers need to have followed the Watamote manga from at least chapter 71 to chapter 98 to have an adequate appreciation of the characters. The characters have all aged by about one year as they seamlessly transfer from the manga to this fanfic. The story begins from the last page of chapter 98 of the manga where Yoshida offers to walk Kuroki home under her umbrella. They stop for Kuroki to buy some coffee. A personal name for Yoshida was released in the manga of 5 Oct 2017. She is called Masaki.
CHAPTER 1
Yoshida thanked Kuroki for the drink; it was something that she had not expected. They stood together for a while drinking the coffee, both trying to understand the other. The rain increased its intensity and they paused a while to see if it eased off.
"Well, let's get going", said Yoshida finally and the pair stepped out into the torrential rain. Yoshida smiled down at Kuroki and said, "No complaints about my umbrella now, Kuroki-san?"
Kuroki smiled back and, closing the distance between herself and Yoshida, said, "No".
"My name is Tomoko" said Kuroki "but I don't know yours".
"Mine is Masaki", said Yoshida.
"That's a nice name", said Kuroki.
The rain continued to fall heavily as they walked along and passing traffic splashed dirty water onto their legs right up to their knees. They soon were both soaked.
"I live here", said Kuroki. She noted how wet and dirty Yoshida's legs had become and said, "Do you want to come inside and dry off your socks and shoes Masaki-san?" she asked.
Yoshida smiled briefly at the new friendlier name. "That's nice of you Tomoko-san", she replied.
Tomoko realised that their relationship had moved to a closer stage and she wondered if she had made a mistake. After all, Yoshida was a violent delinquent as she well knew. But…. it was too late now.
No-one was home and they climbed the stairs to Tomoko's room where they took off their wet clothing. Tomoko surreptitiously watched Yoshida as she pulled off her socks. Her legs were so long and beautiful, and with smooth skin.
"How did you get to be so tall and beautiful?" asked Tomoko without thinking. She immediately blushed and felt awkward, it was more than she had wanted to say. '
"I'm not beautiful!" Yoshida said with slight anger rising in her voice.
Tomoko worried that violence was but a short distance away. She looked towards the room door and wondered if she could make it out before Yoshida caught her.
However, Yoshida continued in a more normal tone "I'm tall because my mother was very tall, or so my relatives tell me. My mother died when I was six years old and my aunt looked after me after that".
Kuroki was relieved that the possibility of violence had receded into the background. "I can lend you some of my spare socks Masaki-san", she said to Yoshida "but they might not fit you because I'm small".
She gave Yoshida a clean pair of her socks but Yoshida was unable to put them on after two attempts.
"I think it is because your legs are still a bit damp", said Kuroki.
She grabbed a warm dry towel and moved over to Yoshida's feet and without waiting for permission began drying Yoshida's ankles. Yoshida did not appear to mind, and indeed held her leg out so Kuroki had full access below the knee. 'This is great!' thought Kuroki as she gently rubbed the towel higher over Yoshida's shin and curvaceous calf. She then moved her towelling down and began to sensually massage Yoshida's feet through the towel.
Had Yoshida been a cat she would have started purring and a look of pleasure relaxed her face. Her eyes almost closed. "That feels lovely Tomoko-san" she said.
Tomoko continued her towelling alternating between legs and feet and would happily have continued doing this for hours. It was so peaceful and satisfying. Yoshida was obviously enjoying the sensation too. Tomoko slowly began to move her towelling boundaries further upwards beyond the knee.
"Stop right there!" Yoshida said. She did not sound angry. Tomoko had tried to progress a few centimetres above the knee and that was obviously the limit.
"Try putting the socks on now Tomoko-san", she said in a friendly way. Tomoko did as she was bidden and after both socks were on, got up and sat alongside Yoshida.
"The rain seems to have stopped now" said Yoshida, "I'd better continue on home".
They walked downstairs to the hallway where Yoshida put on her partly dried shoes. "Well, thanks for the socks Tomoko-san", she said and without any warning she put her arm around Tomoko and, pulling her close, planted a warm kiss on Tomoko's cheek. She was gone before Tomoko recovered her senses.
