Sleepover

She twisted soft brown hair between her fingers, marvelling at its shine. Perfect. Just like everything else about Tohru. They were watching a movie together, and while Tohru was completely lost in the film Hana found herself paying more attention to the girl sitting next to her. She watched with fascination as the brunettes' expression changed from a huge smile to a teary frown, she hugged her comfortingly.

"I can't believe he did that to her! But I'm sure he must have his own reasons… there must be a reasonable explanation! There has to be!" Tohru bit her lip, very cutely Hana thought, she looked up questioningly at her dark-haired companion.

"Maybe…" Hana smiled lazily down at her. That brought the sweetest smile to Tohru's face, and the tiny glint of hope in her eyes sparked into a bigger one, Hana couldn't help but smile.

Tohru nodded, "There must be a reason."

As the movie continued, Hanajima continued to play with Tohru's hair, making small plaits and braids and then untwisting them afterwards, she felt as though she could do this forever, but alas, all good things must eventually come to an end. Hana inhaled nervously as Tohru leant her head on her shoulder, a contented smile on her face.

"I knew there was a reason!"

"Yes, you were right," Hana smiled too. She looked up at the clock; eleven forty five already? Time flies when you're in love… having fun, whatever…

Tohru finally got up from their position, shaking her head and sighing happily. "Oh!" She gasped as she saw the clock, "We should get changed!" She was still smiling as she searched through her bag; looking for her pyjamas. "Here they are!" She announced proudly, PJs in hand. "Um… where do you want me to change?" She asked worriedly, "I'll go and change in the bathroom if you want! I don't want to get in your way or anything!"

"Ssshh, Tohru, it's fine, we can change in here, you're not in my way."

"Phew," She breathed a sigh of relief, "Just checking!" She then turned around and started unbuttoning her shirt, Hana could not move her gaze for what felt like forever, but she managed to in the end; she didn't want to pry or make Tohru feel uncomfortable. So she turned to change into her own pyjamas; black, she liked black. When she turned back round, fully redressed she found Tohru in what must have been cutest pink pyjamas ever to exit on the planet brushing her hair. Tohru put her brush back in her bag and then, yawning, got up again and turned to face Hana.

"Tired?"

"Ehe… a little, yeah."

"Good, that's why we're going to sleep now right?"

"Yep!"

Hana pulled back the covers from the futon and offered a space for Tohru, smiling Tohru got in first and Hana slid in next to her. Tohru quickly turned around so that she was facing Hana and then, still smiling, took her hand. Hana watched her like that as she fell asleep, and almost melted when Tohru buried her head in the crook of her neck, snuggling deeply before sighing contentedly. She gently rested her chin on the top of the brunettes' head and stroked her hair some until she finally fell asleep too.
