Why She Loves Me

Disclaimer: I do not own anything that has to do with Mai HiME or Mai Otome. I believe Sunrise does. xD

A/N: Hey... I've been lurking around the Mai HiME section for quite some time and well, I've decided to write a ShizNat fanfic. Yet, I haven't written a serious fic in a very long time, and this is my first Mai HiME story...and, I'm just making excuses. xP

Please enjoy and give me feedback as to what I can improve on. Thanks. - A Bottle of Mayo


"Ne, Shizuru?" A rustle of cloth could be heard as the girl in question turned towards the speaker.

"What is it my Natsuki?"

"Why do you love me?"

"...Ara, there are many reasons as to why I would love my Natsuki. Yet it's so hard to choose between her beautiful legs," a hand slowly dragged its way up the raven haired girl's folded leg..., "and that oh so sweet-"

"Sh-Shizuru! That's not what I mean!" A deep red flush quickly spread from her cheeks to the rest of her lower body.

"...Then what do you mean Natsuki...?" The tone of her voice suddenly shifted from her normal playful banter to indifferent and almost aloof in a matter of mere seconds.

"I've been thinking, and well, it just doesn't seem to add up," her hands made several vague gestures in her lap, "as to why you love me."

"..."

"...Shizuru?"

The older girl leaned over slightly and planted a brief kiss on the lips of the younger girl.

"I love you because I do. Natsuki is Natsuki, and although there are times where giving up might have been the easier and wiser of choices, I chose not to. At times, I myself don't even understand why I do, I just do. I can't imagine a world without you, whether it might have been as a friend, an older sister, or as a lover," the corner of her lips tilted up, "so long as I got to be with you. Like I mentioned before, there are many reasons as to why I love you, but it's as simple as this," she placed her right hand over the raven haired girl's beating heart. "I love you Kuga Natsuki for being you and only you."
