What Happened then?
You're probably all wondering what happened after that, right? Of course you are. Well after Hikaru got Ai calm he asked her if he wanted to spend the night at his place. Needless to say Mai and Kaoru stayed put. When Hikaru got Ai to his house it was late, way past sun down. They went up stairs and to his room.
Ai's POV
All the way home Hikaru was talking. Well, he looked like he was talking. I can't be sure, because I wasn't actually able to focus enough to hear anything but my minds relentless babble. When we got to his house he snuck me upstairs. I knew after what had just happened he wasn't stupid enough to make a move, so I let him. When we got up there I saw Hikaru's and Kaoru's bed pushed together.
"We usually sleep like this. You can have Kaoru's bed and I'll pull them apart." Hikaru stated, immediately going to move the beds away from each other. That's cute. Even though he's not hosting now he's still being a gentleman. I guess that's just how he is. I did choose the best twin.
Walking up behind him I grabbed his wrist. "If you don't mind, I'd like to keep the beds together. I would hate to be alone tonight." I smiled shyly.
Hikaru's POV
Her request took me by surprise, but I definitely wasn't going to make any objections. Turning around with a smile I nodded. "We could do that, although I should warn you. It's a habit of mine to cuddle."
Her face brightened and she hugged me tight, placing a kiss on my cheek. "Good. Same here."
We'd just keep it sweet and innocent tonight. For the first time I'm not going to rush this relationship. I like the pace we're going at.
It was getting pretty late so I got Ai some pajamas from my mom's sleep drawer. The two of us changed, in different rooms and then came back to the beds. We laid down face to face. I kissed her gently and wrapped my arms around her waist. With a smile she closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep. I gazed at her for a bit, then followed her lead. "Good night my little mermaid."
I hope you all liked this chapter. I may or may not get another one up tonight. Please review and let me know what your idea of it is. I'd love to know :)
