"What's your answer kotori? Will you give me another chance?"

"Umi-Chan I…"

Kotori didn't know what to do. Her head and her heart were at war with her feelings. She knew that Umi was being serious but she didn't want to be hurt again.

What should I do? Umi-Chan is waiting for my answer. What shall I say? I've missed being with her and I still love her. But I don't want to get hurt again.

"Kotori?"

"…yes"

"Huh? What did you say?"

"I said yes Umi-chan. I will give you another chance."

"Thank you kotori. I'll do anything for you to show you how sorry I am"

"Anything?"

"Yes"

Kotori paused for a second as she looked around the room. Over the past few days nothing had been cleaned.

"Okay Umi-Chan, you can tidy the house whilst I make sure everything is spotless"

"Really?"

"You said anything didn't you?"

"Hai"

As Umi went to clean the house, kotori felt bad for not helping so she pulled the archer into a bone crushing hug as the bluenette pulled the ash haired girl into another kiss which soon got heated.

Reluctantly, they pulled away from each other and peered into each other's eyes. Kotori spotted something deep within Umi's orbs that she's never seen before…lust.

"I love you Umi-Chan. I want to make you mine"

Before the archer could respond, Kotori planted her lips on the other pair as she led her up to her room.

"Kotori, wait. I want to do things properly this time. I don't want to rush into anything"

"okay Umi-Chan, can we lay down? I miss cuddling up to you"

A red hue spread across Umi's cheeks. She never got like this with Nozomi but something was different with kotori. Even after all these years, kotori had the ability to turn the archer into a blushing mess.

They got into bed and kotori placed her head on Umi's chest and wrapped her arms around her.

"Hey, Umi-Chan? Can we go on a date?"

"If that's what you want I will do it. I'll do anything to show you I love you"

"I love you too Umi-chan. Will you stay the night?"

"Sure. How's honoka by the way? I heard she's with Tsubasa-san?"

"Yes she is. She's happy with her and it's great to see she's found someone who could give her what I couldn't."

"that's good. I hope me and her can start talking again"

Kotori just nodded in agreement before realising the bluenette had fallen asleep.

"Sleep tight Umi-Chan. I love you"

Kotori placed a kiss on Umi's cheek before going into a peaceful slumber with a peaceful smile on her face.
