This was one of the thoughts I had this morning when I woke up, between wondering how one would climb out of a giant flower and thinking of Mary Poppins... Yeah, random, I know. Anyways, I figured I would write about a few of the nights in the Aihara household (this is just one of them).
I would say this happens sometime during chapter 11, after Yuzu asks Mei to keep her schedule open of Christmas and before Matsuri decides to be a little... *clears throat* more... forceful.
Before you proceed I should warn you, this is pointless, unnecessary and cute.
It was a late night for Mei. Student council work had kept her up, and she had stayed in the living room so that she wouldn't bother Yuzu in case she wanted to turn in early. As she had suspected, finally opening the door to the bedroom late at night, she found the blonde sprawled on the bed, above the covers, her phone a few inches away from her hand as she slept soundly.
Shaking her head to herself, she walked over, taking the phone and placing it on the desk before going over to the sleeping girl and slightly nudging her on the shoulder.
"Yuzu" she called her name softly, and that was all it took for half open, disoriented eyes to open up, barely focusing on her face.
"Mmm..." Yuzu let out a cute little moan as she rubbed one of her eyes sleepily "Mei?"
"You fell asleep. Get under the covers or you'll catch a cold." Mei spoke in the same gentle voice, allowing herself to admire Yuzu's cuteness now that the girl wouldn't notice the attention.
"Okay." Yuzu murmured, both her hands covering her eyes this time. "Help me?"
Mei sighed in resignation, more for the sake of appearances than an actual portrayal of her feelings since she wasn't all that bothered. She kind of enjoyed getting to see Yuzu like this and so she patiently waited for her to sit up before she pulled the covers, letting the girl shift inside them, and covering her once she had lain down. She spared a few milliseconds, covers still in her hands, hovering over the older girl as she fought the ridiculous urge to kiss her forehead goodnight. Mentally reprimanding herself she straightened up and started walking away, but not before Yuzu called "Thanks, Mei", turning on her side and closing her eyes once again, an involuntary smile on her lips.
Do I win tiniest chapter of the fandom award or what? :P
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed! This took virtually no time to write, so there should be another one of these up by Christmas the latest :D
