Short message: These next few weeks are going to be crazy busy for me so I probably won't update for a while but I have a lot of ideas for more Reinako fanfics so please look forward to them! Also more drawings will be coming up on my tumblr and pixiv so look out for them too ^^ Thank you for reading my stories! Reviews are welcome ~ !

I look around the bedroom and little Rilakkuma alarm clock next to the bed says it's 6:30 pm. Looking at the empty notebook and stack of textbooks, I sigh. Mina asked me to come round her house this weekend, she said she wanted some help with her history assignment. I've sat in her bedroom for 15 minutes and we've not exactly made any progress...

She's fallen asleep.

I told her to read an article from the textbook and it must have bored her to sleep. I let out another sigh and lean on my elbows on the desk. How am I supposed to help her if she's not even conscious! Now I know how Ami feels when she tries to get the others to study...

...zZZ...

She's snoring! I quietly laugh to myself. Well, I suppose I can forgive for sleeping on me. She must be tired since she did have volleyball practise earlier today. I'll let her nap for a little longer but we should really finish this assignment. It's due in tomorrow! Trust her to leave it till the last-minute.

I glance over at Mina. She's leaning over the table, using the open textbook as a pillow. Her golden blonde hair is slightly ruffled, some strands drape freely in front of her closed eyes. She actually looks peaceful when she's not shouting out or annoying me. Her sleeping expression is quite cute. I smile and think about her other expressions.

I think back to last summer when it was the hottest day of the year. I remember her complaining about the heat.

"The blazing sun is too harsh for my delicate youthful complexion!"

She exclaimed this whilst putting one hand over her heart and her other hand lightly touching her forehead with the palm facing up. It was like a 'damsel in distress' scene from an old bishoujo manga. Such a drama queen! She also fluttered her eyelashes to add exaggeration.

I then think about how often she likes to wink. I'll often say something casual and she'll find a way to make it sound sexually suggestive. Like that time when she slept over at the shrine and wouldn't go to sleep.

"Mina, stop watching TV! We NEED to go to bed!"

"Oh, Rei ~ You're eager to sleep with me that badly, huh?"

*wink*

Usually after a moment like that, I'd say something to deflate her ego. Not to deliberately hurt her feelings... just a teasing remark to put her in her place. She'd then cross her arms and pout like a sulking child.

"You're such a meanie, Rei!"

Sometimes I'd purposely ignore her comments just so I can see her pouting face for longer. I admit I'm occasionally a terrible person but her grumpy face is simply charming. She can't stand it when I don't pay attention to her.

I let my mind wander to that one time when Mina made me really angry. I can't even remember what she did to make me so mad, it was so long ago now, but I do remember giving her the silent treatment all day. In the end, I could tell she genuinely felt guilty when she apologised, it was so honest and adorable. I was on the sofa reading my novel when she sat down next to me. She nudged my arm with her head and lightly pulled on my sweater.

"Rei... I'm really sorry for making you mad... Can we kiss and make up?"

The way she asked if we could make up made my heart beat faster. Her cheeks were flushed pink and she had teary eyes. How can someone be sexy and cute at the same time? Thinking about it now makes me feel a little embarrassed and hot.

"Mmnn..."

Oh. She's finally waking up.

"Good morning, sleeping beauty."

*yawn*

She stretches her arms and rubs her eye. She takes a glimpse at me through dazed eyes.

"...What were you thinking about, Rei?"

My face must still be flushed from my previous thoughts.

"Never you mind. You've got a lot of studying to do."

She tilts her head sideways and looks confused, still half asleep. I giggle at her appearance. Her hair is even more disheveled than before. I brush her messy fringe to the side and lightly kiss her forehead.

Her sleepy face is probably my favourite Minako expression.
