With her homework completely finished with for the day, Yuuko was ready to take some much-needed leisure time. So, with that thought in her mind, she grabbed one of her unread boys-love manga and started heading downstairs to her favorite reading spot - the couch of course.

Why was that place her favorite spot? Well, not only was it very comfortable, but she also had easy access to the TV if she wanted to turn it on and the living room was where her younger brother usually read his own manga, so she'd be able to easily order him to get her some tea if she wanted something to drink (or anything else she wanted to order of him).

Pretty much, she wouldn't have to move from the couch unless she wanted to.

Yuuko smiled, cradling her manga in her arms as she descended the stairs, not noticing something was wrong until she walked around to the front of the couch only to see her inferior twin sleeping on it. She stared at him, not sure on how to respond to this situation. It was her reading spot, and she wanted to read, so that meant she should just forcefully remove him from it, right? She is, after all, older, stronger, and the person in charge of this household.

Then again, he actually looked a bit adorable with how his hair was freely falling down his face... how he was resting his head up under his arm... and how his legs were drawn a bit up so that he could comfortably fit on the couch. She couldn't help but to feel a little... fond of him.

But that moment passed quickly. Yuuko simply decided that she'd hurry up and get this trash off of her comfy couch, so she could have it all to herself even if it meant waking her idiot brother up from his idiotically peaceful and adorable slumber.

So, without another thought, she grabbed his arm and was about to drag him off of the couch; however, her eyes caught sight of his own eyes opening up. He was obviously still half-asleep as he looked up at her, looking at her a couple of seconds before giving off a soft smile and going back to sleep.

Yuuko had caught a glimpse of a mixture of fondness and familiarity in his eyes at that moment, the feelings they were conveying taking her a little aback. She hadn't expected him to look upon her so lovingly without the expression being subdued by his poker face, and it had caught her completely off guard.

Even though her hand was still on Hideyoshi's arm, ready to drag him off of the couch, all of her willpower to do so had been completely sapped away with that look he had given her. She tried to cloud her mind with thoughts of what an idiot he is and how inferior he is compared to her, but she just couldn't help but keep thinking of him as her sweet, adorable younger brother who she had to look out for.

"You idiot..." She muttered, releasing his arm. Before she knew it, she started heading over to get something to put on him, not being able to stop herself from grabbing a blanket and placing it over Hideyoshi, just telling herself that she was doing it so he wouldn't catch a cold and cause more trouble for her.

She ended up tucking it in close around him instead of just laying it over him.

Yuuko stared blankly at what she had done, wondering why she had given in to her brother. Why did she have to do such a thing for that idiot? She should have just let him catch a cold instead of taking the heart to cover him up. But... even if he is inferior to her, she still thinks of him as a precious sibling...

She crossed her arms, pouting as she narrowed her eyes at him. She wanted to degrade him some more in her thoughts for having made her do something like that, but she just couldn't bring herself to do it. "Fine," She sighed, shaking her head as she sat down against the couch, "you win this time, dearest brother." Without another word, she began reading on the floor.
