Kirino's long orange hair was swept to the side over her shoulder. Kyousuke could see streaks of silver moonlight shining through it. Although Kyousuke's eyes were hooded with lust, he couldn't help but admire his sister genuinely. As often as they got into scraps with one another, there was no other reason for it happening other than their mutual frustration. They both admired one another for who they were. Kyousuke loved the confidence Kirino had and how fearless she was to the world. Kirino was swept by Kyousuke's gentleness. Although he had a laidback demeanor, he couldn't hide how selfless he was toward the ones he loved. She thought about this as he continued kneading with more pressure into her neck.
Her skin felt like the softest cashmere. It was perfection. It contrasted to the slight roughness of Kyousuke's hands. He couldn't help but wonder if she was enjoying this or not, but the way she slightly writhed into his touch proved she wasn't opposed to it.
Kirino slowly wrapped her arm loosely around Kyousuke's leg. She traced lazy circles with her index finger around the side of his calf. Kyousuke shuddered a bit. Although they both were thinking about how much they loved each other, they were both curious teenagers. Their minds would shoot quickly to dreams of intimacy.
"Is something wrong?" Kirino asked while turning her head around to meet Kyousuke's eyes which she couldn't see to clearly.
Kyousuke stared blankly in shock. The silver moonlight hit every point of her delicate face beautifully. Her blue eyes burst with color as her soft lips paled a little but remained rosy in the center. Her silky hair framed her face perfectly aside from a few strands straying from the bunch.
"Beautiful"
"Huh?" Kirino questioned without moving her sight from him.
Kyousuke quickly realized what he had said and nervously tried to recover. "Uhm...uh...never mind."
Kirino smirked at his failed attempt to hide what he had just let out. She sighed as she turned her head around to face forward.
"Thanks"
Kyousuke lifted his hands off Kirino's shoulders and placed them on his knees, which were on either side of her. She pouted in protest. "Done already?"
Kyousuke didn't reply. He just remained in that position battling thoughts of being with Kirino in ways siblings should never be.
"You think I'm beautiful?" Kirino said while propping herself up to turn and sit on her knees facing him.
Kyousuke looked at the girl kneeling on the floor between his legs. This beautiful girl who understood him. Who knew him like no one else. He slowly reached for a piece of her hair. Watching the moonlit strands fall effortlessly over his fingers.
Kirino's eyes widened at this gesture. 'So gentle' she thought.
They stayed like this for a little while until Kirino crawled onto the couch beside him.
"I couldn't see your eyes"
"Oh...can you see them now?" Kyousuke wanted to face palm himself for saying something so useless.
Kirino giggled a bit "yeah, I can see them clearly now." She hesitantly lifted her hand toward his face, gently stroking it with the base of her palm, stopping just above his jaw line. Kyousuke closed his eyes and slightly nuzzled his cheek into her hand. It felt so warm. Both of their heartbeats quickened. They have never been this connected before. He slowly opened his eyes again eagerly to see his stunning sister so close to him. He lifted his hand to meet hers on his face. She eyed all his motions carefully until meeting his gaze again. They both knew what their confessions to each other would be but uttering the words seemed so difficult. Instead, the gentle gestures they made toward one another said more than words could express.
The gaze began to get impatient between them. They both wondered 'Why tonight?' to themselves. There was no defining reason why they chose tonight. Everything just seemed to fall into place perfectly with what they were feeling. At this point they both knew that they were not just physically attracted to each other. They loved each other. They both were one another's special person. And together they felt that hiding it was no longer an option.
Kyousuke guided Kirino's hand down to the space between them, squeezing it just enough so that he wouldn't hurt her but still gesturing that he didn't want this experience to end yet. Kirino looked down at the desperate hold her brother had and smiled at it. His gaze was still hard on her. As she lifted her head to meet his eyes once again, their faces were impossibly close. She expected herself to push back in shock but his calmness seemed to travel into her through their interlaced fingers. They both were as still as stone. Knowing what they both desired to happen next was easy but doing it was terrifying.
Kyousuke made the decision that he wasn't going to be the calm laidback guy tonight. He wanted Kirino for everything she was with every fibre in his body. He slowly moved in closer past the point where eye contact wasn't possible. He paused with just enough space to fit his index finger between their lips. Kirino could feel her brother's warm breath on her lips. He knew there was no turning back at this point. Kirino felt heat build up all over her body as he slightly tilted his head to the right while lifting her chin up gently. The moment their lips connected, Kyousuke could feel thousands of tiny butterflies in his stomach flying around with thrill. They moved with unison into the kiss before slowly pulling away.
Their hands remained interlocked. As satisfied as they both were, the fact that what they did was wrong washed through their minds. As this realization ran through them, their hands began to drift apart slowly.
"K...Kyousuke?"
"I'm sorry Kirino" He looked down in shame of what he did to his sister.
"No it's okay. We both did it. H...How about...we keep this... our little secret?" Kirino asked while looking up at her brother with a desperate smile on her face as if to reassure him that she wasn't upset.
Kyousuke finally looked up to see his sweet little sister smiling at him. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but arch into a smile after seeing her. He took a deep breath in and exhaled.
"Okay. It will be our little secret."
