Chapter VII
Oranges and Carrots
Gumi slowly crawled out of bed, aching all over. That had been one really tiring night. Walking through the room completely naked was not something she did often. And she wouldn't, if not for the blanket being preoccupied, being claimed by her sister completely for herself.
Her sister, Sonika Lyoid, had showed up all of a sudden the last night; and had immediately revived old, bad habits. Ever since she was little, Gumi had had a crush on her sister, and Sonika saw no reason to deny her the little pleasure of sleeping with her whenever she saw her little sister.
Gumi realized with the years how bad this kind of thing was. Incest was frowned upon by many, even if between sisters, and she lacked the resolve to say no to Sonika. One touch, one whisper, and her heart was melting like chocolate in the sun.
Gumi cursed her luck when someone knocked on the door and a annoyingly familiar voice called for her. "Why does she have to get up this early... what, it's past ten already?" Gumi, with catastrophic bed hair and generally a bit droopy looking, put on some random clothes she picked up from the ground and opened the door.
She immediately broke out in laughter. Miku had put her hair in a high ponytail and wore a cap and sunglasses while Luka was actually wearing a blond wig and colored contacts. She still knew it was Luka. Nobody else would try to grope their girlfriend in the open like that while waiting for someone to open the door.
"Luka and I are going out. The town, maybe the amusement park. Wanna... what happened to you?" Miku was a bit baffled. She knew Gumi was not a morning person, but this was a bit heavy, even for her.
The clothes she wore were several numbers too big, she wasn't wearing a bra, and looked generally like Luka after a full party night, which meant she looked pretty awful.
"You look a little roughed up." Miku commented and tried to spy past Gumi into the small apartment.
"Queen of understatements." Luka teased her girlfriend and simply let herself in, despite Gumi's eager but futile attempts to block the way.
"Aha! Got yourself some company I see. It all makes sense now." Luka grinned wide and remembered Gumi being on cloud seven the evening before.
"Just. Get. Out." Gumi pushed Luka out of the bedroom and slammed the door shut. "That's none of your business!" Gumi seemed oddly angry, so Luka decided not to push it. She didn't want to get scolded by Miku.
Leaving the apartment, a tired out and exhausted Gumi saw them off at the door. "I'll stay home today. I had a long night." Luka gave her a knowing smile and Gumi's face turned bright red. Although the diva didn't know who it was, she was sure that she had seem someone in Gumi's bed.
"We'll see you later. Or tomorrow. Bye bye, Gumi." Miku waved and pulled Luka away before she could barge her way in again.
Gumi closed the door, exhaled deeply and leaned against the wall. She would never, ever, hear the end of this if Luka caught wind that she was sleeping with her own sister. That was in the case Luka was going to talk to her at all after learning that.
"Who was that?" Sonika, with the same catastrophic bed hair as Gumi, poked her head out of the bed.
"Friends of mine. They work with me." Gumi sat down on the bed and Sonika hugged her from behind. "Nobody can find out about us. We'll both lose our jobs and friends. It's our secret love." Sonika kissed Gumi on the neck, but the younger sister moved away.
"We shouldn't be doing this anymore. It's... I don't want to say it's wrong, but I can't handle the pressure of hiding who I love." Gumi was a honest girl that didn't like to lie, not to anyone. And sleeping with her own sister was a constant lie, to herself and everyone else.
"Thats what you say every time." Sonika grabbed Gumi's wrist and pulled her closer. Their faces were only inches apart when Sonika blew some air on Gumi's neck, making her little sister moan with pleasure. "And this is what always happens."
Sonika pushed Gumi down and kissed her passionately. Gumi's face was blazing red as she wrapped her arms around her sisters neck and moved her left leg between Sonika's.
"I love you, Sis." Gumi whispered.
~~~ Hear my Song! ~~~
"Rin? Rin, wake up." Len leaned over Rin, who was so fast asleep that she seemed dead to a normal person. He was already dressed up and had made breakfast and cleaned the living room among other things.
He had learned to deal with this over the years. When Rin simply wouldn't wake up, there were a few sure fire ways to make her. The first was the best, and that was food. Rin was a glutton, and as soon as the apartment smelled like breakfast, she usually appeared at the table, like a hungry animal.
The other way was... well... The traditional bucket of cold water worked real wonders, even if only used as threat. In any case, the scent of hot toast, eggs and bacon filled the air of the apartment and Rin slowly came to, waking from her trance.
"You might want to put on some clothes." Len said, averted his eyes and left the room. He knew exactly what his sister was doing, what was going on. He would have to be denser than a black hole to not notice. When someone starts moaning 'Miku, Miku' in the middle of the night, there wasn't much room for speculating. Especially if said someone woke up completely naked.
Truth be told, he was more than just a little weirded out bis this. Liking girls, he could deal with that. Liking Miku, he could understand that. But making a huge secret out of it and then failing to keep it an actual secret, that made really no sense to him. Heck, if anything, he could have helped her out. But he was afraid of Rin finding out what he knew.
Rin was a lot denser than he was in that aspect. She wasn't suspecting anything, no matter how many suspicious things she did right under Len's nose.
Rin grabbed some clothes from the ground and started to get dressed. Len had long given up on picking up Rin's clothes, so they were always where she left them. Half walking and half tumbling, Rin went into the kitchen.
Len was not even looking at her. Rin was a little weirded out that Len didn't care a cent when he saw his sister naked, but ever since she had found out that her brother was into the whole goth loli thing, she had given up on him being a normal person.
"Eat your breakfast, then get yourself ready. I don't want the others to wait." Len finished up his breakfast and picked up his backpack, which contained their lunch boxes. This was his big chance to impress the girl he liked.
"Yeah yeah. Don't get your dick in a knot, you won't be late for your little dream date." Rin was even more foul mouthed than usual in the morning and this morning was even worse than usual.
Len rolled eyes and kept his response to himself. He knew, that if Rin would get the chance to go on a date with Miku, she would double and triple check everything, probably spend hours picking an outfit and so on. Whenever Miku was involved, Rin seemed like a different person.
Rin munched away at her breakfast and pulled herself up and into the bathroom, where a few minutes later the shower started to make noises. Despite moving the big mirror on the wall away into a corner of the living room, Rin was still reminded of her flat chest every time she walked past that spot.
She was feeling a bit sore. Someone on a board dedicated to the Krypton stars had photo shopped a picture of Miku into a nude version. Rin had spend the better deal of the evening on the PC because of that. But the more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed to her that Miku was actually having a relationship with Luka. It really bothered her, then Luka was everything she wasn't. Tall, long hair, big breasts. Especially the breasts part made Rin furious.
A good half hour later, Rin was finally assembled and out together, ready to go out. They still had twenty minutes to meet the other two down the street at the coffee shop. Len was wearing some black trousers, sneakers, a sleeveless shirt and a black chemise with flames on it. Even Rin had to admit that he looked pretty nice. For a guy.
Rin was wearing white sneakers, black socks, orange shorts and a black shirt, with a pseudo jacket that was also orange over the shirt. A small bag on her girdle doubled as wallet and the outfit was complete by a wrist watch that Len made her wear. Her ribbon, one of her standard accessories, had just been washed and wasn't in any condition to being worn so she left it.
"Let's go, before you go and decide you aren't looking cool enough." Rin was a bit in a fowl mood because she had a weird and erotic dream the last night. It was about Miku, Luka and herself, which really pissed her off. By the time she woke up, she felt incredibly horny and annoyed. Rin was still feeling that way when they met up with their dates a few minutes later.
~~~ Hear my Song! ~~~
"Okay, how exactly. How exactly, did our free day and sneak out attempt turn into... into... this!" Miku was annoyed and past her limit of what she usually put up with, and her curiosity didn't let her object anymore than saying she hated it.
Luka put a finger to her mouth and pushed her down. They were hiding behind a big car on the other side of the street. Luka, being the catastrophe she was, had started speculating who Gumi was sleeping with. Which lead to them stalking her.
"There they come!" Luka took cover and spied at the girl. Jackpot. The other girl, or guy, was with her. Luka almost forgot to breathe when she saw who exactly was with her.
"Miku, was there anyone else in that apartment?" Luka asked in a quiet voice, unable to stop starring at Gumi and her escort.
"No. I didn't see anyone. But I do think something is not right here. Thats... you know." Miku rubbed her eyes, not sure whether she was hallucinating or not.
"Yeah. I mean... we have to be... or not? Is she seriously...?" Luka didn't know what to say either, which was every bit as surprising to Miku as what she was seeing.
Gumi walked right next to the very same woman they had seen on the evening news the day before, Sonia Lyoid. Miku was sure there was a perfectly fine explanation for this, there always was one.
"Let's go after them!" Luka was up and about to follow Gumi and her sister when Miku held her back.
"You can't just... stalk them!" Miku really wanted to know but her conscience was telling her to stop.
"Don't you wanna know? I mean, if it's what it looks like, then-" Luka's face was sort of scaring Miku. It was so full of curiosity that Miku thought she would explode if she didn't go.
"There's gotta be an explanation for that. I don't think Gumi is sleeping with her sister." Miku shook her head but blushed heavily when she actually imagined Gumi and Sonika. They did look good together.
"And to get that explanation we're gonna follow them!" Luka pulled Miku with her and barely caught sight of the couple in question going into a side street. Miku was still a little worried about this. Luka made her do a lot of things she didn't really agree with, but this was a little... but she wanted to know. So badly. In the end, curiosity won over her conscience.
"They're holding hands!" Luka whispered when she looked around the corner.
"They're sisters, that doesn't mean a thing. Haku and Neru do it too, and they're only cousins." Miku interjected, still looking for a logical explanation to all of this.
"They're.. wow." Luka grabbed Miku a bit too violently on her wrist and pulled her closer, so she could see around the corner. It was a narrow sideway between two buildings. Miku almost couldn't trust her eyes, looking at the sisters.
Sonika had pushed Gumi against the wall of the left building and was kissing her. Judging from how Gumi's chest was moving, quite passionately too. Miku blushed a little bit, again, and felt a little disturbed. She was open to a lot of things, but incest was a little difficult to accept.
Luka and Miku pulled back when Sonika looked around if anyone was watching them. The pink haired woman was panting and the younger girl next to her was half lost in thought. "I know it's not exactly right, but damn, thats hot." Luka said and took a cautious peek. They were still there.
"She shoved her hand under Gumi's top. Are they planning to get it on in there? Man, that woman is good." Luka actually admired how bold Sonika was, while her talk made Miku a little annoyed.
"They shouldn't do that. Thats not really... okay." Miku was a bit more open than most about such things, but this was still...
"Why not? Gumi told us they didn't grow up together. I can sort of understand her. And it's not like they're gonna have kids. I don't see what's so bad about this." Luka looked at Miku and sort of expected an answer. Apparently, she was fine with everything if romance was involved. But well, that was just how Luka was.
"I don't know, okay? It's just... why her sister of all people? It'll be a scandal." Miku was considering how the public would take this if it leaked.
"The same could be said about us two. I don't think we're in any position to judge her for this." Luka gave Miku a knowing look and saw the girl defeated in her own game.
"Why is it that you only win at arguments that concern sex and romance?" Miku complained and couldn't resist taking another peek. They were still there and making out. Gumi had laid both her arms around Sonika's neck while her older sister's hand was caressing her breasts.
"Gumi is not gonna keep this up much longer. Just look at how hard she breathes." Luka grinned and earned a scolding look from Miku.
But she was right. Sonika's other hand vanished into Gumi's pants seconds later and made her sister moan, which were quickly silenced by a deep kiss. Luka pulled back and so did Miku. Any more of this, and she wouldn't be able to control herself.
"If you really think it's wrong, you need to talk to Gumi." Luka got up and hold one hand out to Miku, helping her up. But of them were a little flushed and red in the face. They had both seen Gumi naked, kissed her... but this was really, really different. "But it's her decision. If she wants to have an relationship with her sister, I am okay with it."
"Maybe you're right. It's her life. I hope she's gonna tell us. I don't want to tell her we went and stalked her." Miku felt guilty now, but not enough to really regret it. She thought for a second that Luka was corrupting her a little.
"Anyway, let's go and see where they go. I wanna know more." Luka had that shine from earlier back in her eyes but Miku had enough.
"If you really wanna do this, you can do it alone Luka. I'm not stalking my friends anymore than this. If she wants us to know, she is gonna tell us. I'm done." Miku turned around and walked away, leaving a perplexed Luka behind.
It took a few seconds for Luka to register that Miku was really mad at her for doing this. Looking a bit worried she could agree with herself that maybe she overdid it a little. Stalking people was a crime after all. To add to that, Gumi probably hid this for a reason from them.
Miku was already a few streets away when Luka caught up with her. They looked at each other in silence, Miku obviously angry and Luka a bit concerned. Miku didn't say anything. She was about as guilty as Luka on this.
They walked quietly next to each other, in no particular direction. "Can we stop punishing each other with silence now?" Luka asked after about ten minutes had passed. Miku rolled eyes and sighed but took Luka's hand as if to say okay.
"We shouldn't have done this. But we went into it together, so I guess we have to clean the mess up together." Something caught Miku's attention from the corner of her eye and she lead Luka to it's source. "I'm not sure if we should really tell her we know."
Luka was a little confused where Miku was pulling her. "Well.. we could say we saw them together or some such. I know you don't like lying, but in this case, it'll hurt her only more if we tell her the truth." Luka had some experience with things like that. Always telling the truth wasn't the best course of action.
"You're right. Let's go there."Pointing at a pamphlet on a wall, Miku simply agreed to Luka, who was so shocked by that turn of events that she spaced out for a moment.
"I'm right? I thought I'd never hear that from you!" Luka grinned and watched as Miku looked into her eyes and flicked her forehead.
"That's because it happens so rarely, it's a borderline wonder of the modern world." Miku had learned how to effectively tease her partner. Luka started to sulk a little and looked at the pamphlet on the wall that Miku had pointed at.
It was a advertisement for a local amusement park. Luka had been there before a few times, and it was a rather nice park, if a bit expensive. "You want to go there?"
"You don't?" Miku's household had always been a little pressed for money, so she had never had the chance to go to many parks or some such.
"I like to go anywhere as long as you are there." Luka said and tightened her grip on Miku's hand, making the girl giggle and smile.
"You really do have your way with words." She took a breather and lightened up a bit. The Gumi thing was up and done, nothing they could do about it now. "Then I'll have you accompany me." Miku said with a bright smile before they took off together.
~~~ Hear my Song! ~~~
"Is all of this really necessary?" Sonika was putting on a large white sun hat and some tinted glasses. Gumi had changed to a longer hairstyle, wearing a hair extension she had bought the other day. Gumi had become really worried after her sister started to make a move on her the moment they were outside. Right after Sonika was satisfied, which was no sooner than Gumi reaching orgasm and sinking to her knees, they headed back into Gumi's apartment.
"It is. I don't want people to recognize us. Even more so than usual. It'll be a total catastrophe if anyone knew we're sleeping with each other." Gumi was now wearing her hair open like Luka usually did, and it was about the same length too. Changing her clothes up a little, she looked like a totally different person.
"You look nice with long hair. Ever thought about growing it out?" Sonika was not so much changed, but not many Japanese people recognized her anyway. She was more of a overseas star and not that famous in japan.
"It won't grow that long." Gumi said with a red face. The slightest compliment from her sister made her blush. It had always been that way. Ever since they first started to make out with each other.
"Who were the two girls that showed up earlier? Friends? One of them your girlfriend?" Sonika teased her little sister a little and watched her defend herself a little too eagerly.
"People I know from work. You know I won't get a girlfriend or boyfriend. I could never stand it. Not when I have you." Gumi looked a little lonely saying that.
"What will do you if I get a boyfriend? Or marry?" Sonika was not anywhere as fixated on Gumi as her little sister was on her. It was sometimes a bit worrying. Sonika wasn't planning to be in a illicit relationship with her own sister forever. Only until she met mister perfect.
"Don't even joke about that." Gumi said in a real snappy and angry tone and put on her boots.
"Are you coming? You were the one that wanted to go to the amusement park so badly this morning." Gumi was a little angry that her sister was constantly teasing her. She was worse than Luka.
"Sure. You look hot in this getup." Sonika made her sister blush again. "But we already had sex twice this morning, so it's okay." Sonika leaned down and blew some air on Gumi's neck and whispered in her ear. "But this evening I'm gonna make you feel good..."
Gumi left her apartment, followed by Sonika, with a bright red face and a loss for words. Thank god Miku and Luka had not caught her with her sister. They wouldn't understand. She was like a different person when Sonika was around, living almost exclusively for her.
"You don't own a car?" Sonika looked a little annoyed when Gumi headed in the direction for the sub station.
"Cars are expensive. And you get there with the sub much faster than with the car. This isn't Europe or America, sis." Gumi explained and took her sister hand. "Your Japanese is still good though. Are you secretly practicing?"
Sonika laughed and shook her head. "No, not really. It's in my blood I guess. How else would I be able to talk to my adorable little sister? Although I do sometimes watch a few anime to remember things." Sonika tried to remember some things she watched, but Gumi was probably not into that sort of thing anyway.
One thing really worried her though. Gumi had grown more and more dependent on her over the past few years. Or more specifically, her love. Sonika had met and gone out with a few men in Europe but none of them were really what she was looking for. She had dated a lesbian in her business for three weeks before they separated because of work and never found the time to get back to each other.
It was nice to have a sister that loved her, and she really did love Gumi as well, but this kinda relationship wasn't going to last forever. Gumi was almost an adult now, and should look for her own romance. Sonika had no idea how to even begin telling her that. Gumi wouldn't listen to such things.
Not to mention, she could only really stay in japan for limited amounts of time before her work called for her. And she was not really at home there. Her home was Europe, thousands of miles away. Despite all of this, Gumi was clinging to her like this. Sonika liked it, but knew that it wouldn't hold. Gumi apparently didn't share that thought. Which was problematic.
But that was still in the future. For now, she would have fun and most of all, plenty of sex with her sister. When all was said and done, Gumi had a really nice body and was amazing in bed. Nobody she had ever slept with came even closer. She sort of envied her future boy or girlfriend.
"What are you thinking about?" Gumi asked after a while and was a little surprised when Sonika looked at her with lust filled eyes.
"About this morning and your cute, little moans." Sonika answered and grinned. Gumi was always embarrassed about these things and it was her pleasure to tease her about it.
"Your breasts were a lot smaller the last time I saw you. They're really nice." Sonika had a little fetish for breasts and Gumi knew about it too well. She would fondle and caress them for ages at times.
"Stop it." Gumi's voice was so shallow that Sonika couldn't help but smile. It was so fun to tease her.
Nobody recognized them, and beside the usual stares two girls holding hands got, there was nothing out of the ordinary. Gumi's conscience nagged on her though. Luka and Miku had come forward and told her about their relationship. It seemed a little unfair to them to keep Sonika a secret.
She had never told anyone, but if anyone would understand, then those two. But it was still a risk. In the end, Gumi decided against telling them. At least not now. Maybe... some day. Gumi's thoughts switched to something else when the train came and they got on, good on their way to the amusement park.
~~~ Hear my Song! ~~~
Teto was really cute today, he had to admit. Light-blue jeans, a bland black tank top with a pink tank top on top of the black one. Her hair was done differently from usual. The drills were less extreme than usual and closer to her head. All in all, she looked plenty cute. The tank top was showing off her cleavage. Teto must be really close to a C cup if she wasn't one. Len felt a little hot starring at her bust.
Ritsu was completely different from Teto in fashion sense. Len was about to do the classic anime nose bleed, just looking at her. Wearing a corset-like top that really showed off her, now confirmed, large breasts. It was black and several laces were going over her chest, pushing her breasts tightly together. Accompanied by that was a short skirt, not quite a mini skirt but well in that direction, that was completely black. It was a very out-going goth loli costume.
Rin's left eye twitched with each look back. Len's eyes were like glued to Ritsu and Teto was hopelessly trying to find a common topic to talk to her. Rin wasn't exactly fond of bread. Or French bread. Or bakeries. Or EXILED. She found Teto to be a little annoying. But what really pissed her off was how Len was hanging on Ritsu's lips. Well, at least metaphorically. His eyes were fixated elsewhere.
They had walked like this, Rin and Teto next to each other in the front and Len with Ritsu in the back, for the last twenty minutes. Rin was starting to make sounds like a pot that was about to melt from the boiling water. But thank god they were finally there.
Everyone paid their entry fee and entered the park. This lot had been vacant for years, ever since the second world war. A while ago, a big group bought the land from the government for cheap and build an amusement park there.
Ritsu and Rin had not talked a single word yet, but they each had detected the odd vibes the other one was giving off. It was like two beasts in disguise that recognized each other by smell instead of sight. Rin didn't say anything but was on guard. What against, she wasn't really sure.
"What are we gonna do first?" The four of them were standing in a small circle, trying to decide in which direction they should heed. Teto was the one making suggestions and ruling out places because they'd be overrun with people at this time. "How about the ghost house?" Teto was giving both Ritsu and Len a lewd look.
"I like that idea." Ritsu agreed and showed a split second of weakness and smirked. Teto was horrible with scary stuff, and that Rin girl didn't look like she was good with it either. Generally, this girl was weird. Ritsu almost thought her a guy if not for her voice.
Len was sweating a little. The idea of Ritsu being all scared and clinging to him was setting his mind and other parts on fire, but he was terrible with scary stuff, not Rin. But he absolutely couldn't show that to Ritsu. So how would he get out of that?
"I prefer the roller coaster. This one. We should go now, it'll be crowded later." Rin pointed at the white roller coaster that had big exclamation marks on it. It was being praised as the 'fastest and most powerful coaster in japan'. Len felt a few important things drop an inch when he thought about getting on that.
"I'm in favor of that too!" Teto agreed. So it was all up to Len now. He thought about splitting up, but Rin would probably do something horrible if he left her alone with Teto. Rin wasn't so great with people she barely knew or didn't know at all.
"L-Look, the ghost house is right on the way to the coaster. We could do one after the other." What the fuck was he saying? Why was he smiling like some suicidal idiot? Did something in his head break after starring at Ritsu's boobs too much?
"I didn't know you were such an action fan Len." Rin knew exactly how bad he was with scary stuff. She took a roller coaster ride with such ease that Len used to call her the roller coaster demon. Well, that was stuff of the past. But that smirk on Rin's face... that wasn't good. Len tried not to go pale by the sheer thought of it and nervously turned around, pointing in the direction of the ghost house.
"L-Lets go." Len said and took a few steps before waiting for the others.
"You're shaking. Are you okay?" Ritsu wrapped her arms around Len's arm and pulled him so close that he could literally feel her boobs moving in that dress. A 'boing' movement with every step.
"I'm just shaking with excitement. I love roller coasters and stuff." Len's inner voice was about to pack it's seven things and leave before he went down the road of certain doom.
"You're so brave, I like that." Ritsu knew exactly what she had to say to make him do exactly what she wanted.
"He's shaking." Rin said and pointed at the nervous Len in front of her and Teto. The red haired girl nodded and smiled.
"Yup, he's shaking. And he's such a bad liar." Teto was amazingly sharp when it came to such things. There were a few other things she was sharp about as well, but they were less important right now. With a single exception. "I guess you're stuck with me for the day. Sorry if I bore you." Teto was a considerate fellow, that was conscious about some of her flaws.
"I didn't really care for this arrangement. I'm just here to enjoy the rides. Don't mind me, 'kay?" Rin didn't pay much attention to Teto until the drill hair girl grabbed Rin's hand and refused to let go, even after Rin shook her arm a few times violently. "Uhm... what are you doing?" Rin didn't hate it. Teto's hand was warm and soft. But it was more than just a little forceful.
"Holding hands. I don't really care if you're straight, bi or gay, so we're holding hands. You said 'don't mind me' after all. So I don't!" Teto, all smart, sharp and conscious of her faults, had still the weirdest logic in the world. Rin was so taken off by her reasoning that she sighed and let it go. It wasn't worth the effort. They were just holding hands after all.
"Do you always dress like this?" Teto was a little curious about Rin. They were both watching the two lovebirds in front while talking. It was quite amusing how the older and mature Ritsu was leading Len around, making him believe he was leading her.
"What do you mean, like this?" Rin's touchy subject. The only reason she looked like a guy in these clothes was because she was flat. Flatter than a board. And short. If only she was five centimeters taller. In both dimensions.
"I like your fashion sense. Your clothes fit together well and they give a warm feeling. I bet you could get into a hot disco like this." Teto was older than Rin, although the only major difference between them was their bust size, if bodies compared. And Teto had somehow dodged a very delicate question.
Rin was so surprised that she blushed a little. Teto didn't say 'Like a guy' at all, and even complimented her. It was rare that someone had to say something good about her looks.
"Have you thought about wearing a ribbon in your hair? I'm sure you'd look really cute like that." Teto was not working as waitress for nothing. She knew exactly how to involve someone in a conversation once she found some common ground.
"Actually, I usually wear one, but it wasn't usable today. Wouldn't fit with this stuff anyway." They had reached the ghost house and Ritsu and Len went in, looking like Ritsu was glued to his arm.
"Let's do that too." Teto said and grinned.
"I hadn't planned on skipping the ride, really." Rin was looking a little confused.
Teto grabbed Rin's arm and imitated Ritsu and Len. Rin's face took a slight red at the sensation of feeling Teto's boobs through her clothes. It wasn't a bad feeling at all. She was in love with Miku, but this kind of thing wasn't so bad either. "If you want. I usually almost sleep through those." Rin had assumed that it was one of those rides where you entered a small cart, sat down and watched as scary stuff passed. But this was different.
The Villa of Crimson Night was a four level building which visitors could freely roam through. There were some closed doors that only employees and staff had access to, but there were no signs, it was very realistic. However, that meant that she would have to walk around the whole time. That Teto was almost hanging on her wasn't making this anymore comfortable.
Ritsu let out a small cry when a skeleton fell from the celling and pressed her chest against Len's side. The guy didn't know from what he should faint too. The soft sensation or the scary place. He really was terrible with scary stuff and Ritsu dragged him all over the place. And yet he couldn't do as much as scream. It was a real ordeal.
They had finally reached the top level after another set of stairs. Len's nerves were worn out already and Ritsu headed to the furthest back, where it was completely pitch black and they had to watch their step. She finally let go of Len and leaned against a black wall, her dress almost merging with the darkness in this place.
Len, not really sure what to do, was simply standing there like an idiot until Ritsu rolled her eyes and pulled his arm. His mind was a roller coaster already. 'What, what was she doing? This was... that, right? She wants to make out in this place. Did I brush my teeth? Dammit, I never kissed anyone. I hope she doesn't notice I'm-' His thoughts were interrupted by fireworks when Ritsu forcefully kissed him and pulled him even closer.
Len wrapped his arms around her waist, albeit pretty amateurish, and kissed her back, even more amateurish. Ritsu quickly broke out of the kiss and gave him a certain look. "Try it more like this." She said and kissed Len again, showing off her kissing technique for Len to copy.
Len wasn't very quick to pick it up but managed after a few more tries. He was worried he was looking like a total idiot in her eyes and he wanted to just go home. At least that was what his head and his reason were saying. The bulge in his pants was saying something completely different.
They spend a few more minutes kissing, Len not knowing what to do with his hands, moving them from her back to her neck, back to her back, and all over the place until Ritsu started to get annoyed. Still kissing, she grabbed his right hand and pulled it down to her right tight, under her skirt.
Len panicked a bit and didn't know what to do, being a total amateur on this field. Ritsu pretended to gasp for air and whispered something in his ear. Len tried to relax a little, but that was hardly possible in this situation. But at least his instincts started to take over. He started caressing Ritsu's tight and his other hand finally moved to her big chest, gently groping her boobs. Ritsu let out a little moan before she started to kiss him again.
And Len's eyes were on fire. A flashlight was directed at them by one of the security personnel. "You can't do that here. Out." He was not very amused by activities of the two. Ritsu simply giggled and grabbed Len's hand, both of them running away with bright red faces.
Rin was all but bored. Teto, while not exactly a scaredy cat, was doing her best to scare Rin. Which worked very well. A few steps after they had walked around in the dark, Teto pretended to fall. Rin leaned down out of reflex and Teto grabbed her hand, pulling her down, right on top of her. Rin's face was flushed. It was more sexual harassment than scaring, but it worked on Rin.
By the time they reached the third floor, Rin's heart was beating like the engine of car that was running way past it's limit and she absolutely refused to lean, grab or hold anything, much less stand closer to Teto than absolutely necessary.
And then Teto vanished. Rin suddenly felt pretty scared. From which side would the attack come? What would she do? And she didn't see the attack coming. Two slender arms, much stronger than she imagined them to be, wrapped around her waist from behind. Rin shuddered and gasped when Teto blew hot air in her ear. The red haired girl let go and started laughing, while Rin was standing a few meters away, catching her breath and thoughts.
She could deal with rude people, with dumb people, with annoying people, with sadists, with trolls, with so much, but this girl... was too much! Rin didn't know how to deal with her. Rin looked around, trying to find the exit, wanting to get out of this attraction as fast as possible.
"Wait, it's okay, I'm done. You're really easy to tease, you know? Nobody else I play those jokes on takes them seriously or is really bothered." Teto's face was bright red. She was taking Rin's reaction as compliment. Most people simply saw her as French bread crazed girl with one screw loose too many.
Rin didn't really know what to say and instead punched Teto on the shoulder. "Don't do that again. I don't like it when people cling to me like that." Rin was lying. Lying like a trooper. She had gotten so horny by Teto's playing around, she would have preferred to go somewhere quiet and 'calm down' in her own way.
Teto grabbed Rin's hand and stopped her from walking away. It wasn't difficult to spot how horny Rin was, even in this dim light. Her face, her body gestures. Teto wasn't really planning on dating her or anything, but it had been a while since she last made out with anyone. And Rin wasn't exactly a bad deal, even if she was terribly flat. And she had gotten damn horny too.
"What now?" Rin was really wanting to get out of there before Teto pulled any more weird stuff. She was into girls alright, Teto was looking pretty good and she seemed to be able to avoid Rin's delicate points, but right now, she was really annoying.
Teto said nothing and pulled Rin forcefully with her. To her own surprise, Rin didn't resist much. She had kind of an idea what Teto wanted now and her body was lusting for touch. It would also be the first time she got to touch another girls boobs. Rin felt how the excitement got the better of her.
Teto looked around for a second and found what she was looking for. A big coffin that was leaned against the wall. Teto pulled Rin behind the coffin and could barely keep her hands off her. She waited a few seconds, standing still, her hands wrapped around Rin's neck, waiting to see if Rin was okay with this. She got her answer when the blond girl quickly grabbed both of Teto's boobs and started to grope her.
Rin had never really kissed anyone, but she wasn't one of those people that were all worried about where their first kiss went. Giving it to Teto might have been a little random on her part, but it was an especially nice kiss. Teto really knew what she was doing and lead Rin a little on. Rin took the kissing one step further when she pushed Teto against the wall, and her tongue into Teto's mouth.
Teto resisted the urge to try and grope Rin. The girl had obviously a complex about her breasts. She was always starring at Ritsu and hers. Teto moved her hands to Rin's butt instead and slid her hands under her pants. Teto was wondering how far she could go with Rin before the unexperienced girl would get scared.
But Rin didn't have any intention of stopping. Her hands were already under Teto's top and touching the silky cloth of her bra. Rin was very jealous of her to be able to wear something like that, to feel it on her skin. She enjoyed it when Teto started to moan.
Teto was so horny, she could have had sex with Rin on the spot, but that was probably a very, very bad idea. Teto restrained herself from going any further than making out and instead enjoyed the hot make out session by giving her younger partner another French kiss.
"Damn teenagers everywhere! Hey you! Out of here before I call security!" Someone was blinding both of them with a flashlight. Rin almost literally jumped away from Teto and walked away very quickly. Her heart was beating like a pneumatic drill and her head was feeling funny. This was how it felt to make out with another girl? Rin couldn't wait to repeat this, even if it was just Teto. But the soft feeling of her boobs... Rin caught herself almost drooling.
Teto had finally caught up, having had problems to fix her clothes. They were still a little chaotic, but at least she managed to keep her bra in place, so nobody saw that she was running around with stiff nipples. She didn't expect Rin to go with the flow like that.
And how those things go, Rin and Teto met up with a panting Ritsu and Len outside.
~~~ Hear my Song! ~~~
Gumi was feeling like she had just jumped off a building. The roller coaster was a death machine. Sonika had been cheering and yelling the whole ride, getting off more excited than when she got on, but Gumi was not the type to like fancy rides like that. They had stopped at one of the many stands to get some ice cream and were now sitting on a bench, resting. At least Gumi was.
"Lets do that right again, okay?" Sonika had always been like that, as far as Gumi could remember. Brave, maybe even a little bit reckless, fearless and always up for new challenges. Gumi looked up to her sister a lot and even though she knew she could never become like Sonika, she did wish for it a little bit.
"I-I'll wait down here... I'm not good with this stuff." Gumi shyly waved her hand and looked in another direction. She was fine with most other things, but stuff like roller coasters were a bit much.
"Ah, thats no fun. Let's go to the waters slide next then." Sonika was taking Gumi from one speedy ride to the next. She wasn't the type that would enjoy a merry go round or something like that. Gumi on the other hand enjoyed those quite a bit, but this was a rare chance to go to an amusement park with her sister, so she didn't say anything.
Gumi simply nodded and continued to lick her ice slowly. Slow enough to waste enough time for her stomach to put itself back up after that hazardous ride on the roller coaster. They were sitting not too far from the ghost house, and Gumi thought how nice it'd be to go there with Sonika. Her sister wasn't bad with scary things, and neither was she, but it would still be nice.
"Hey, look at them!" Sonika pointed at a group of two couples. Two red haired girls and two blond guys had just met up in front of the ghost house, all of them out of breath and their faces flushed. Gumi found that so adorable. From their looks, the guys couldn't be older than around fourteen. But the girls were clearly a bit older.
"Isn't that one cute?" Sonika pointed at the guy that was standing right next to the red haired girl with the drill hair. "He looks a bit too girly, though."
Gumi had never met either Len or Rin before, so she didn't recognize them. To her, they were just strangers. "A bit too girly? Isn't... that a girl?" Gumi was pointing at Rin and looked a little confused. If it was a girl, she wasn't much of it.
"You think so? But just look at how he's looking at drill hair next to him." Sonika smirked and Gumi noticed the lewd looks Rin was shooting Teto. She found it a little embarrassing to watch them like this.
"Let's follow them, I'm curious now." Sonika really had some very bad habits. That stalking people like that was a crime didn't seem to bother her at all.
Gumi wanted to object but Sonika was already dragging her along. They walked a good ten meters behind Len's group, to avoid being discovered. But that was hardly an issue. There were lots and lots of people walking with them, all in the same direction.
The direction they were headed to wasn't towards the roller coaster at all. It was towards the party water slide. A wild water adventure attraction where people sat together in some sort of ring shaped boat and went down an artificial wild water river. To Sonika, it was obvious where this was going. It was impossible to stay dry on a ride like that, and wet clothes meant only one thing to pubescent boys!
"Sis, I bet you're thinking something only an old man would think." Gumi recognized the dirty look in her sisters eyes and got a bad feeling about it.
"Say Gumi, how is your work at Krypton?" It was still some distance to walk and Sonika had yet to ask Gumi any personal stuff. It wasn't that she didn't care but rather, she cared so much, she was afraid of hurting Gumi by bringing up her recent career.
"It's really nice. I have some really, really weird co-workers that invited me to the agency, but they're also really nice to me. Everyone seems to be a bit more relaxed there than at J-Net. " Gumi's face was shining with a bright smile when she talked about it. It was so obvious that she was happy working there.
"You got anyone with a special interest in you?" Sonika was always all about romance and affairs. Asking Gumi about her love life was no different. She wanted to know. She needed to know. She was curious!
"You are my special interest Sis." Gumi almost whispered it and the words were lost in the noise from people around them talking as well. "I don't think anyone got a crush on me." Gumi thought if it was okay to mention that Luka and Miku, her co-workers, were in a relationship, but she decided against it.
"Thats so boring. They all have no taste if they ignore my cute, lil' Gumi." Sonika grabbed her sisters hand and pulled her a little closer, forcing a slight blush on Gumi's face. "Would you prefer a girl or a guy?" Sonika knew that she had influenced Gumi a lot in that direction, but then again, she wasn't always around.
"You're a girl, so..." Gumi left the answer to that open and blushed a little more. She really didn't like to talk about stuff like this in such a place. Someone could hear them and recognize them. Her illicit relationship with her sister had to be kept a secret.
They had finally reached the attraction. There was long line and even more people just passing through. Sonika took Gumi's arm and forced her to go arm in arm with her, despite that it made them look like lovers to everyone around them. She didn't want her sister to get lost.
They were only a few people behind the group of four, but Sonika had a hard time seeing what was going on with them. The guy with the goth loli girl was still all flushed. No wonder, though. The girl was clinging so tightly to him, he must feel her boobs all over his arm and side. That'd drive any hormone driven young guy crazy.
The other two were a bit more civil. They were holding hands but looking in different directions, not even talking. It looked like they just didn't want to get lost from each other.
"Gumi, what's your cup size now?" Sonika asked without taking her eyes off the four.
Gumi looked a little shocked and went furiously red. A few people around them gave them odd looks. Looking pretty embarrassed, Gumi tiptoed and whispered the answer in her sisters ear. She had grown a little since last time and was pending between B and C now. Come to think of it, she needed to go and buy a few new bra's.
"Then that girl definitely has C or even D. They're bigger than mine for sure. The other one is probably about your size." Sonika said it like it was some sort of informal advertisement and Gumi hissed to make her lower her voice.
"You're a little too fixated on breasts sis..." Gumi felt a little irritated now. The line was steadily moving, but there was no end in sight. How long were they gonna stand there? And Sonika continued to monitor the four teenagers not too far in front of them.
~~~ Hear my Song! ~~~
"Our luck really is the worst." Miku said with a depressed expression and sighed. They were waiting in line for the wild water slide in the amusement park. But why. Why for the love of god did Gumi and Sonika have the same idea? But not only them. Between Miku and Gumi were four more people she recognized. Her neighbors, Len and Rin, and the girls from the coffee shop, Teto and Ritsu.
"They haven't recognized us yet. I'm amazed you recognized Gumi anyway. I'd never think thats her. Are you really sure that-" Luka was a little confused. The girl had green hair alright, but it was too long to be Gumi, and the hairstyle resembled her own more than Gumi's.
"That's Gumi. She wore the exact same thing to work once, I remember those, because the hair looks like yours, just green." Miku said and covered in front of Luka when the taller green haired girl next to Gumi looked at her. Then that must be Sonika. It was hard to make out behind the tinted glasses and the hat, but that must be undoubtedly Sonika.
"So, now they're following us?" Luka didn't really care. Gumi knew about them, so where was the problem?
"I don't think so. They just had the same idea we had and we coincidentally went to the same attraction to the same time." Miku said and only realized how astronomical the odds of that were. "One hell of a coincidence alright." She was a little annoyed at this turn of events.
"And thats not all. You see the two couples, blond and red haired, behind us? You probably didn't recognize them as you haven't seen them often, but they live right next to me. Rin and Len Kagamine. And they're with girls from the coffee shop I frequently go to." Miku was a little worried that it'd turn into a weird situation if those four found her going to an amusement park with Luka.
"Don't worry, by the time we get on the ride, they're still in line. They won't ever spot us." Luka reassured Miku and took her hand. "We're up." The line was finally ending. It went down a set of wooden stairs to a rotating platform with several of the round floats docked to it. Luka decided to pick the one to the right edge, as it was completely empty.
But luck really wasn't on their side. They were in the sixth float. Everyone after them went to other floats, filling them up. The staff members directed people right after Luka and Miku had sat down. They were trying to fill the excess floats up. Miku's heart started beating really fast when Rin and Teto walked down the stairs and got approached by a staff member. They were directed to the sixth float.
Before they arrived, Miku shot Luka an annoyed look. "You were saying?"
Rin recognized Miku the instant she saw her. And that meant she also knew that the woman next to her had to be Luka. On one side, she wanted to go home. On the other side, she wanted to go on the same ride with Miku. What she finally settled for was to get on it with Teto and make Miku jealous.
Len and Ritsu were directed to the same float and a very awkward situation came about. Luka and Miku were sitting next to each other. Ritsu was right next to Miku, Len next to Ritsu, Teto next to Ritsu and Rin next to Teto. That left three more spots to the float.
Miku knew that good things never happened all at once but bad things did. Nobody said a word. From the look Rin was shooting her, she could tell that Rin knew it was her and Luka. But she didn't say anything and instead kept holding hands with Teto, giving the girl with the drill hair lewd looks.
Luka couldn't talk. The atmosphere was suffocating. Len too, must have noticed but he was too occupied with keeping some blood in his head to say anything. There were only two floats left, a completely empty one that had just arrived and theirs.
"This way please." The staff member directed Gumi and Sonika to a float that was almost full. Gumi broke out in cold sweat the second she recognized the people inside. Sonika felt a little sick as well. She wanted to observe them. But not this close!
Gumi had no choice but to sit down right next to Luka and Sonika took the seat next to her sister. That left one open between Rin and Sonika. "Have a nice ride." The staff member pressed a button on the ground and the float was left loose.
The supposed to be enjoyable ride turned into a horror show. Gumi was so nervous that she had turned completely pale. Sonika wasn't looking too good either. Teto, not recognizing anyone outside her group, was a little weirded out by how aggressive Rin had gotten all of a sudden. Ritsu didn't mind the others at all, despite recognizing Miku, and continued to cling to Len, who was very busy with his own worries right now.
Luka and Miku felt like they were in a steadily smaller getting room. Should they say something? Or not? Did Gumi recognize them? Of course she did, they worked together... This was kinda bad.
The float crashed against a wall and the water below them turned into a giant fountain that hit Miku, Luka, Gumi, Sonika and Ritsu with full force. They were all looking like they had just come back from a diving tour.
"...Whose idea was it to get on this stupid ride?" Ritsu complained, letting go of Len and looking at the now all wet and sticky outfit she was wearing. I'd take a while to get that dry again. And all the dirt in the water! It was a nightmare.
"That would be Len, Teto and me. Someone rained on your mood now?" Rin was obviously pleased by this turn of events. With a few exceptions, all women with big boobs were her enemies. Especially if they were clinging to her brother like that.
"Yeah, well, thanks then. Waterfall." Ritsu said nonchalantly.
Everyone's eyes turned to the front. They were going through a cave any second now. But that wasn't the real problem. The massive waterfall right over the entrance of the cave was a much more pressing matter! The float itself had holes that let out excess water so it wouldn't sink. But the people inside...
A collective "Ah!" turned into collective silence complaining in a matter of a single splash.
"Gumi, you got a towel or something with you?" Luka's hair was hanging all over her face and she tried to fix it by blowing it away. But they were way too heavy. Her blond wig was nowhere to be seen.
"No... sorry. I need one too..." Gumi's fake hair piece had vanished in the splash. It was probably calmly swimming in the river with Luka's wig now. Her hair was so wet it was still dripping on her shoulders. Sonika was exactly the same, although the hat should have protected her a little.
Rin had gotten so wet that her clothes were sticking to her slim body like a body suit. Teto was similar. Her clothes were sticking really tightly to her body. To everyone but Rin's surprise, Teto didn't seem to mind much. Len felt a little relieved after the surprise shower. His blood finally went back to his head and he could think clearly again. He just couldn't look at the soaked Ritsu, otherwise he'd probably faint.
"I think they had drying rooms at the end of the ride." Sonika pulled her hair back, sending droplets flying everywhere. "They better do, or I'll throw someone in the river." Sonika wasn't very good with situations like these, but who was, really.
"You four on a date?" Luka felt that it was completely pointless to keep anything hidden or unsaid at this point. They were all soaked wet and annoyed so they needed a change of mood.
Before Len or Rin could say anything, Ritsu and Teto answered in unison. "Yes, they invited us." It was actually only Len that had invited them, and Rin ended up tagging along, but that didn't matter.
"It's so much a date for us, we just went to have some fun once in a while." Sonika threw in on her own. "I'm Sonika, Gumi's sister." Sonika looked in no distinct direction and tried to fix her hair in a way that it didn't keep falling down in her face.
"I'm pretty sure most here know Miku and me, but anyway. The wet poodle next to me is Miku Hatsune. I'm Luka Megurine. We got a new idea for a song and wanted to get some inspiration by going to the amusement park." Luka was such a talent when it came to coming up with a lie on the spot. Sonika bought the story and so did the others. All except Gumi and Rin.
"I'm rarely in Japan, so I wanted to take my sister to the amusement park." Sonika had no trouble lying the blue from the sky. She and Luka were in the same business, so that was a given.
Miku pointed at the front. "Waterfall." Her voice was completely emotionless, as if she didn't even care anymore.
A huge splash later, everyone tried their best to fix their hair so that it didn't stick to their faces. This wasn't a ride, this was torture. Why the hell was there no warning sign of floods in front of it?
"Sadly,nobody wears a white shirt." Luka said and watched Len, who had closed his eyes to survive this. He had a hard time with just Ritsu, but in a float full of soaked girls with clothes sticking to their bodies, his survival chances were nil.
"What are you, an old man?" Miku commented and gave Luka a serious look. That single comment changed the mood. Everyone else but Luka and Miku started to smile and laugh.
"I don't know if it's worth pointing out, but... Waterfall." Gumi pointed at the front. This time, it was a canyon like scene with waterfalls from both sides. It wasn't that they were hit directly, but the air felt like it had turned into mist.
Teto sneezed and shivered. "I'm cold. They better have those drying rooms you talked about." Teto moved over to Rin's seat and tried to sit on her lap. "Let's warm each other up."
Rin pushed her away, a little grossed out by the idea of doing anything like that in front of everyone else and while being soaked wet. Teto really knew no shame. But apparently, nobody seemed to care about her little attempt.
Miku was busy talking to Luka, and giving her harsh looks. Apparently, the pink haired woman had said something stupid to get punished by Miku. Sonika and Gumi were trying to fix each others hair. They looked so alike it was fascinating. Ritsu was trying to fix her dress, and Teto was trying to get some body warmth from Rin, again. Len was the only one that didn't do anything at all. He read too much manga to not know better than to close his eyes in this kind of situation.
And the ride finally ended. The three groups got off as one and was directed to the drying rooms. Luka overheard some of the staff employee's talking on the side. "I told you a thousand times, you have to keep an eye on the water regulator. You're supposed to turn it off when the green light blinks. It means a float is going through."
Luka just didn't care anymore. She would have murdered and sliced the guy in four pieces and then thrown him in the river if she wasn't soaked wet. There were indeed drying rooms, but nobody was even remotely as wet as the seven girls and one guy that just entered.
It was like a very warm regular room, resembling a typical sauna with towels to set on, but not anywhere as hot as a real sauna. It would take a while to dry up like this. Miku and Luka were sitting at the far end of the room, while Teto, Rin, Len and Ritsu were closer to the entrance. Gumi and Sonika sat across from Miku and Luka.
"I think I saw you doing a commercial once. Your name was Luka, right? You work with Gumi?" Sonika, a towel on her head, one over her shoulders and one to sit on, leaned forward to talk with Luka, who had just finished emergency drying her hair with two towels and Miku's help. Miku was not so much bothered by her hair because she had turned it into a ponytail earlier, but it'd be a pain to get it back to normal later.
"We both work with Gumi. We invited her. Actually, Miku did, but I helped." Luka looked at Gumi and smiled, earning her a smile in return.
"You two going out?" Miku stopped rubbing her face with a towel and hid behind it. Did she notice? Or did Gumi tell her? Nobody else in the room seemed to listen to them, so was it safe to answer this truthfully?
"What do you think?" Luka was showing a fake smirk, acting as if she knew something she wasn't supposed to. That was always a good move when dealing with people like Sonika.
"Nothing really. Just curious." Sonika let it be with that. Luka was not to be underestimated. She knew exactly how to deal with stuff like this. "If you aren't on a date, want to tag along with us?" Sonika knew she would reject that. They obviously wanted to spend some quality time together alone, so-
"Gladly. I love hanging out with Gumi." Miku answered instead and poked in the back, unseen for the two sisters.
Sonika was so surprised, like Luka, that she didn't know what to say. But wait, she wasn't supposed-
Gumi poked Sonika in the back. "Did you guys go to the ghost house yet? I really wanna do that." This was her chance. If she played her cards just right, maybe Miku and Luka would be understanding of her relationship with her sister. They were doing a pretty scandalous thing themselves, so they were the only ones she could entrust that secret to.
Both Luka and Sonika looked like they had just been defeated by an enemy they had never seen coming. Usually, Gumi was totally devoted to her sister, but with Miku on her side, things were a little different. The usually twin-tailed girl gave her a confidence boost.
Miku and Gumi talked a bit about inconsequential things until Luka pointed out the that party of four near the entrance had up and gone vanished. Well, they actually were out on a date, so that wasn't surprising to either of them.
"Miku, you said two of them are your neighbors. But aren't they supposed to be twins? A girl and a boy? Those were both boys." Luka was a little confused. She had only met Len and Rin once and her memory of that event was rather fuzzy. They weren't exactly the most important people in Miku's life.
"One of them was a girl. The one with Teto. The girl with drill hair." Miku didn't know how else to describe her. At least Teto didn't know she called her drill hair, then she really hated that.
"You're kidding. That was a girl? Wow, she's so flat, I thought it was a guy." Luka seemed rather surprised and so were Gumi and Sonika, both thinking that Rin had been a guy.
"Never let her hear that, she'll throw something at you." Miku shook her head and tested how dry her clothes were. Maybe a few more minutes.
"They said they were on a date. So... that Rin girl is going on a date with another girl? So young, yet already..." Sonika left the rest of that sentence open. But nobody blushed or showed the slightest sign of being embarrassed at the idea of two teenager girls dating. After all, all four present were doing exactly that.
"I... guess so? It's not really my business who she likes. I just live next to them." Miku knew them well, but not anywhere good enough to know who they dated or why. She really didn't want to either. Her life was complex enough as it was. Luka on the other hand, and Miku was absolutely sure of that, would want to know every tiny detail.
"Sonika, for whom do you work overseas?" Luka actually spoke in English, even though her accent was a bit bad.
Sonika was not surprised that Luka, someone who worked as songstress, could speak English. "I used to work for a major European agency that mostly produced music clips for music channels. Dancing, singing, the whole packet, you know? I terminated my contract a few days ago and came here to see my sister. I'm going to America next. M-TV wants me for one of their new programs." Sonika replied in perfect, accent free English. It was much better than her Japanese.
Luka just nodded, looking like a defeated boxer. She was usually quite proud of her English, but she had no chance against someone that was actually living in Europe. Neither Miku nor Gumi understood the entire line, but enough to make the gist of it.
"You're going to America?" That was the first time Gumi heard about that. She felt a little hurt that Sonika simply hadn't told her until now.
"Yeah, but not tomorrow. I'll be around for a couple of days." Sonika laid an arm around her sister and leaned against her. "I see you made some nice friends here. That's one thing less I have to worry about." With a smile, Sonika leaned in on Gumi, who was a little out of it by the sudden news, and kissed her. She only realized a few seconds later, together with her little sister, that they were in public and that there were two people watching them. "Oh..."
