Nozomi's birthday – Chapter 3

'6 days.'

Nozomi was sat on a chair, sipping quietly on a cup of tea, another right in front of her, on the other seat, as if she was waiting for someone. But it was obvious she was expecting someone by the way she was staring at the door so intently.

The purple head didn't see her blonde best friend at school today, so she was guessing that the quarter Russian would visit her today.

There was a knock on the door and the spiritual girl was immediately up and walking to the door. She took a deep breath and opened it.

"Elicch-!... Honoka-chan?" Nozomi looked at the young ginger leader confusedly.

"Afternoon, Nozomi-chan!" Honoka exclaimed cheerfully as she smiled. "I brought something for you!" She showed the other girl the basket that was on her hand.

The purple head looked between the younger and the basket before smiling brightly and opening the door wider, moving to the side. "Come in~."

The ginger smiled back and entered the apartment, already putting her basket on the table as she saw the cups of tea on the table, one of them full.

"Is that for me?" Honoka asked, pointing to the cup of tea that was full.

"Eh? Oh! Um… Sure~!" The spiritual girl quickly decided she wouldn't wait for Eli anymore and would enjoy her day with her kouhai. "Go ahead!"

The younger beamed quietly and sat at the chair, sipping lightly on her cup of tea. "It's delicious!"

"I'm glad you liked~" Nozomi smiled happily and sat too, pouring herself some more tea and sipping on it before putting the cup down. "What did you bring?"

"Eh?" The ginger wasn't even listening as she had a manjuu stuffed into her mouth already. "Ehehe sorry, I wasn't listening… What did you say?"

The purple head giggled lightly. "I asked what you had brought, but I know now." She smiled teasingly.

Honoka blushed a bit and rubbed her neck in embarrassment. "Hehe I-I'm sorry…"

The spiritual girl smiled. "It's fine! She said and took one of the manjuus from the basket. "Was it your mom who made it?" She asked with a tilt of the head.

"No, it was me, actually… Mom said I should learn how to cook in case I'd take over the shop soon, but I said it's too soon haha." The younger laughed a bit before continuing. "But she insisted, so I tried to make it and now that it's finally good, I wanted someone to try it out!" She explained and smiled.

Nozomi listened intently and giggled lightly. "That's nice! But…" She did a little pause and smiled teasingly. "Are you using me as an experiment for you cooking?"

The ginger blushed again and started waving her hands in front of her frantically. "Ueeeeeh! Of course not! I could never use you as an experiment for anything! N-no, I mean, I'd never use anybody as an experiment! I-"

The purple head giggled again and ate a piece of the manjuu while Honoka continued ranting.

"-ause I love you, Nozomi-chan!" The younger finished and the spiritual girl chocked on the manjuu, a piece of it getting stuck in her throat, making her unable to breath. (AN: I don't know if this is possible, but let's imagine it is XD)

The ginger panicked when she saw the other chocking. "U-uaaaah! N-Nozomi-chan! Are you okay?!" She asked, but Nozomi didn't answer and instead coughed while holding her throat. "Drink the tea!" Honoka said, but the purple head couldn't move.

The younger looked between the older girl and the cup of tea and blushed. 'This is for Nozomi-chan's sake…' She thought and decided what she was going to do. The ginger took her cup of tea and took a mouthful of the tea, though she didn't swallow.

Honoka held the spiritual girl's chin lightly and brought their lips together, forcing her tongue into the other's mouth to make the tea go inside as well and help with the piece of manjuu stuck in her throat.

Nozomi's eyes widened and she moaned softly, the tea making the piece go down her throat and to her stomach. She gulped audibly and stared at the younger, her face a bright red and mouth slightly agape. "Honoka-chan…"

"I-I'm sorry for that, Nozomi-chan… But you were chocking and I had to do something…" The ginger's face was also a bright red as she spoke.

"W-what did you… s-say…" The purple head tried to ask while panting a bit.

Honoka tilted her head and frowned. "I'm sorry?"

The spiritual girl shook her head. "No… Before I… chocked…"

The younger seemed to think about it for a bit. "Before… Oh!" She finally understood what it was and blushed a red as a lobster. "I… I-I meant that, Nozomi-chan… I love you…" She said while looking away. "OH! I-I remembered I have something to do! B-bye, Nozomi-chan!" The ginger said and run to the front door of the apartment and away, almost tripping as a loud 'Eeeeeep!' was heard.

Nozomi stared as the other girl ran away and slowly touched her own lips, blushing more. 'Just… What's going on?'
