Sorry this took so long. Been busy lately.
Minutes later, Miyuki and Tamao reached the living room. The older girl gently set the younger girl on a nearby couch.
"Are you still dizzy?" asked Miyuki.
"Very much so. My head is pounding like a jackhammer." answered Tamao, holding her head.
"Hang on, I'll get you an ice pack." Miyuki assured as she gently caressed Tamao's face, which made the younger girl pink-faced.
Since Miyuki spent a lot of time at the Shinomiya house when she was younger, she knew exactly where to find the things she needed. She went inside the kitchen, found the ice pack inside the drawer, and filled it with ice from the freezer. Miyuki then brought the ice pack over to Tamao and placed it on her forehead.
"There we go. Feel a little better, Tamao?"
"It's pretty cold, but my head's feeling better."
"That's good. I guess from now on, I should keep you away from alcohol. It really doesn't agree with you." Miyuki stated sincerely.
"Okay. Save me from the evil alcohol, my sexy, slender heroine." flirted the tipsy, younger girl as she wrapped her arms around Miyuki's neck and kissed her Miyuki was amused.
"Well, I guess being drunk also makes her pretty flirty as well. That's pretty hot." thought Miyuki with a playful smile on her face.
They were about to kiss again, until Yukihiko walked in carrying an unconscious Masaru with a bloody nose and various stains on his shirt. Miyuki and Tamao quickly fixed themselves before anyone would notice. Miyuki, concerned about her fiancé's condition, walked up to them.
"Oh my gosh, what happened to him?" questioned Miyuki.
"Well, he got pretty wasted and got caught staring at a busty woman's tits. Said woman punched him pretty hard. And after that, he kind of threw up all over himself. I'm just gonna take him to his room." Yukihiko replied.
"Let me help you, Yukihiko. Tamao, can you wait here, please?"
"Sure thing, sexy." Tamao drunkenly giggled.
"Did she just call you 'sexy'?" asked Yukihiko as he raised his eyebrow at Tamao's answer.
"You heard nothing, bro."
"Okay then."
Yukihiko and Miyuki carried Masaru upstairs to his bedroom and set him down.
"I'll go get some towels for him. Yukihiko, you can help him change."
"Okay." the older sibling nodded nervously.
As Miyuki left the room, Yukihiko unbuttoned Masaru's shirt and threw it aside. The younger man had gotten some stains on his shirt, so he took off his own shirt as well. Yukihiko stared at the sleeping shirtless Masaru, silently angsting about his unrequited feelings. He wanted to kiss him, but he couldn't bring himself to do so. It just didn't feel right.
Later, Miyuki came back to the room with towels. She noticed her shirtless brother watching Masaru sleep. She felt bad for him pining after a straight (as far as we know) man. Yukihiko heard her enter and got nervous about his sister seeing him like this.
"Miyuki! I..I…"
"Um, maybe just clean him up, okay?"
"Right. Okay."
Not wanting to disturb anything, she closed the door. She quickly went back downstairs to return to Tamao, who was feeling a little better.
"I'm back." said Miyuki.
"Finally! I felt like I was waiting for a decade!" Tamao exaggerated.
"A decade? I was only gone for six minutes."
"Every minute without you feels longer than usual. Don't ever go away again."
"Wow, you can pretty clingy too when you're drunk. But don't worry. I'm not going anywhere, okay?" Miyuki stated as she embraced the still-drunk girl. Tamao just nodded and continued to hug her back.
Just then, Zach walked inside the house so he could find the bathroom. Miyuki spotted him and made a grumpy face, signifying her irritation towards Zach for getting Tamao drunk. She walked up and grabbed his collar.
"All right, fish n' chips. Why did you get Tamao drunk?"
"What? You've got it all wrong! I didn't mean to, Miyuki! She just grabbed the drink from my hand before I could sip it. Maybe… she was just thirsty."
"Oh, so you're pinning this on her now?" interrogated Miyuki.
"No, I swear! I wouldn't get anyone drunk!" Zach stammered, clearly scared.
"It's true. It's not Zach's fault. I already told you. I just got so jealous of you and Masaru-san, then I got thirsty, so I gulped down Zach's drink, not knowing it was alcoholic." Tamao defended. With that, Miyuki let go of the tall British man, but still maintaining her grouchy face.
"All right, Zach. You're free to go." she said as she let go of his collar.
"Oh, thank you. You really had me scared there. And I really hope that's sweat running down my pants." the gentleman laughed apprehensively. He then ran over to the bathroom. Miyuki turned back over to Tamao.
"Hey. Thanks for not going berserk on Zach." thanked the younger girl.
"Well, as long as he didn't mean to do it, I won't do anything wrong to him. I can't really stand the thought of something bad happening to you."
"Nothing bad is going to happen to me as long you're there for me. You're my rock." Tamao smiled. Miyuki smiled as well. They sat back down on the couch and started to get closer to one another.
"Are you worried that someone might catch us?" asked the tipsy girl.
"Not really. There's an open mic thing in the garden so people won't come in too often."
"Oh, so that's where all the half-decent singing was coming from."
"Yeah, that happens a lot in Masaru's parties."
Meanwhile, Shizuma and Nagisa were searching for their friends, wondering where they could've gone. They searched everywhere outside, but they didn't get any warmer.
"Should we check inside if they're there, Shizuma?" questioned Nagisa as she pointed at the house.
"Inside?'
"Yeah, maybe they rested up a bit."
"Hmm. All right, let's go check the inside." agreed the silver-haired girl.
The couple went inside the house to continue their search. Then suddenly, Shizuma's peripheral vision caught some action happening in the den. She grabbed Nagisa's hand and they both hid behind the wall.
"What's going on, Shizuma?"
"I have no clue. Let's see."
They slowly moved their heads to see what was happening in the den. Miyuki and Tamao were making out.
"Holy. Crap." Shizuma quietly blurted.
"Oh. My. Gosh." Nagisa said as she saw it too.
Somehow, the two blue-haired girls were able to hear them and immediately stopped, preventing further humiliation.
"Well, well, well. Looks like someone just confessed their feelings." snarked Shizuma as she approached them, slowly clapping, with Nagisa happily following behind.
"Umm…" Miyuki stuttered nervously.
"You see…" Tamao quivered as well.
"Both of your expressions say it all." Nagisa giggled.
"So you saw you us kissing. It's no big deal." Miyuki said as she was blushing. Obviously it was a big deal.
"Uh yes, big deal! See, when you're honest with your feelings, you get what you want. And now you have Tamao as your girlfriend, like you always wanted!" Shizuma bluntly stated.
"Actually, I haven't really asked her yet."
"Why don't you? She's right there." Shizuma pointed out.
"I can't ask her just like that, Shizuma. First of all, she's wasted. I don't think she'll remember any of this anyway. Secondly, we haven't done any… couple-y stuff."
"Well, you can't really do the couple-y without being a couple. So…"
"Sigh. You're really pushing it." Miyuki grumbled.
Shizuma looked over to Tamao, who was slowly closing her eyes.
"Looks like your 'not girlfriend' is pretty exhausted." Shizuma air-quoted as Nagisa walked up, picking Tamao up and carrying her with her shoulder.
"Guys, I think we should get going. It's getting late and cold. Plus Tamao-chan looks pretty exhausted." Nagisa said.
"You're right, sweetie. It's like, almost nine in the afternoon." Shizuma joked as she looked at her watch.
"Uh, Shizuma? I don't think there's such a time as that." Nagisa answered, looking quite confused.
"I'm kidding. But that would make a good name for a song in the future, right?"
"I guess so."
"Ahem, if you two have forgotten, Tamao's falling asleep and it's dark as hell. So we should be going home, no?" Miyuki snarked.
"Right, sorry." Shizuma and Nagisa apologized.
"Okay, I'll go get Yukihiko so he can drive us home. He doesn't drink so he'll be able to bring us back."
The older blue-haired girl walked halfway up the stairs, only to see her brother going downward.
"So, is everything okay?" Miyuki asked.
"Yeah, everything's fine. Just had a little talk with Masaru after he woke up for a little while." Yukihiko replied.
"About what?"
"You know, just guy stuff."
"Oh, alright."
"Um, could you forget what you saw a while ago?" the older twin requested, referring to the shirtless incident.
"Saw what?"
"Exactly. You saw nothing."
"No need to get weird, bro. My friends and I just need a ride home."
"Oh. Sure."
Yukihiko then drove the girls home and bid them goodbye. They made their way back to the dorms. Miyuki decided to take Tamao to her room first.
"So, did you have a good time at the party?" Miyuki interrogated.
"I have to admit, it was a very nice experience. Except the whole 'me getting drunk' part. That wasn't very fun."
"True, but not to worry. As long as I'm around, you won't get drunk."
"Thank you." Tamao smiled as the two girls reached the door.
"So….I'll see you around?"
"Yeah."
Miyuki and Tamao smiled at each other; then gave each other a quick goodnight kiss. The older girl slowly made her way back to her room, only to find it locked.
"Oh, come on!" Miyuki softly yelled as she quietly knocked on her door. Shizuma then answered.
"Hey."
"Don't you 'hey' me! Why did you lock the door?"
"Nagisa is staying with me tonight." Shizuma said in all bluntness.
"Then where am I supposed to sleep?"
"You can stay with your 'not girlfriend'. Here, I packed you an overnight bag." the silver-haired girl said, handing over the bag.
"You diabolical… You planned this, didn't you?"
"Hmm…well…yes. And I regret nothing. Now if you'll excuse me, there's a redhead in my bed who needs pleasuring."
Shizuma closed the door and Miyuki slightly shuddered. With no where else to go, she decided to go back to Tamao.
"I hope she'll let me stay."
Miyuki slowly opened the door and saw Tamao changing, stripped to her underwear. The older girl dropped her bag on the floor and startled Tamao with the noise.
"Aah! Dude, I'm changing!"
"Oh gosh! I am so sorry!" Miyuki apologized as she quickly covered her eyes and started to blush.
"Hey, hey, hey. You don't have to cover your eyes."
"I don't?"
"Yeah. After all, it's not like I'm totally naked or anything." Tamao said as she got closer.
Miyuki removed her hands from her face to find Tamao embracing her. The younger girl briefly let go so the older girl could get a better look.
"Do you…like what you're seeing?"
"I…I do. I like your body." Miyuki said truthfully.
"Even with these?" asked Tamao as she showed her the burn marks on her arm. Miyuki just said nothing and just kissed her marks, then her shoulder, then her neck, and then her lips. The kiss then got deeper and more intense. Then Tamao had a wild thought.
"You know, Miyuki. That dress looks uncomfortable. You should take it off."
"Gladly."
The taller girl quickly took off her clothes, revealing her black lingerie. Tamao was very amused.
"It's getting cold, Tamao. Perhaps we should get under the covers since it's so cold."
"Yeah. I'm freezing."
The two girls continued to make out and started to experiment with their hands. Eventually they found each other's respective erogenous zones; Miyuki's was at back of her neck and Tamao's was at the sides of her torso. They were clearly enjoying this, but after realizing intense it was getting, Miyuki decided to stop.
"Huh? Why did you stop, Miyuki?"
"I don't think I should do anything to you while you're still tipsy."
"How come?"
"If we really want this, we can't just be together. We have to be together together. And that means both of us need to be sober for this. You understand?"
"I believe so. But this is nice, whatever this is."
They smiled and went underneath the covers.
"I guess this is as far as we can go for tonight, Tamao." assured Miyuki as brought Tamao closer to her body.
"It's perfectly fine. Just being here, with you, is more than enough."
"I'm happy you think so. Good night, Tamao."
"Good night, Miyuki."
They gently kissed and slowly closed their eyes, holding each other.
Author's note
- Tamao's attitudes do indeed fluctuate after she get drunk.
- Shizuma is a magnificent bastard, 'nuff said.
- Don't worry, "it" will happen soon.
- Yukihiko and Masaru will make more appearances. And maybe Zach too if possible.
