Chapter 2: Simmer
After her patrol, she changed out of her uniform and into a sleeveless top and casual jeans. Checking that secret phone, she opened the app out of curiosity. The app, unlike last time, had only a prompt window, with the other functions greyed out in the background.
"PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK."
She stared at the app, toying around and pressing on the screen at various points to bypass the window.
No deal.
She relented and pressed "OK."
In the window were two questions and a scale for each question.
"HOW WAS YOUR EXPERIENCE", with one being the worst and ten being the best.
The other question was:
"DO YOU PREFER TO CONTINUE THE MEETING?", with one end of the scale from "I strongly prefer not to continue", and the other end at "I strongly prefer to continue".
Pausing on the screen, she mulled it over in her head, thinking of what to respond.
She uninstalled the app.
One Week Later
After her mysterious rendezvous, work had been uneventful in the field, but her paperwork stacked up. Her spare phone sat hidden on the top shelf of her locker, untouched and powered off. After today's shift, she took the phone with her, just in case she decided to get rid of it.
On her way home, she checked for any missed emails or messages, hand reaching for her actual phone.
Only one text from Serah - that dinner was in the fridge for re-heating whenever Light came home. No further text from her about university or shopping for the dorm from their last conversation.
She frowned, the thought a reminder that Serah would be leaving to another city in a few months, also leaving her alone in the house.
Lightning sighed, mulling over how much time was left, each moment edging closer until she officially goes away.
Walking towards her front door, she went through and noticed the lights were off, save for a dim glow from the kitchen. Taking off her boots, she wandered towards the glow.
Guess Serah's asleep.
She opened the fridge and took out her dinner to prep for re-heating. Glancing over the meal, she quickly took out her phone and snapped a picture. Lightning saved the photo under a folder named "Serah recipe", admiring her sister's handiwork, before she slid the plate into the microwave and pressed a few buttons to re-heat.
Turning around, she went upstairs. The bathroom lights were on, the door crack a beacon against the dark hallway in the nighttime. Making her way towards the room with intentions to using and freshening up before her dinner finished heating up. She pushed the door open, and went in-
"Ahh Light!"
Light's line of sight lowered from her face to the rest of her body, reacting to the sudden movement in front of her. Hands instinctively went across to cover her breasts, and down in front of her mound.
"A little privacy?!"
Her hand traveled from covering her pussy to scrambling for the towel hanging on the rack, as she turned her body away from the stare.
"...Oh shit, sorry."
She quickly closed the door behind her. Her eyebrows furrowed as she muttered "damn".
I did not need to see that.
Her eyes didn't look away fast enough, and she certainly saw round cheeks before she was able to close the door.
...Awkward. This is awkward.
"Uhh...Serah. I need to use the restroom. Before you take your shower."
Her face felt hot as she talked into the door, projecting her voice beyond. There was a moment of silence, with sporadic shuffling heard from the outside.
"One sec!"
A metallic creak, then the showerhead started to spray water onto the tiled floor. The door opened, Serah walking out with her towel neatly wrapped around her. Only nodding at her, Light dashed in and the door closed once more. Unzipping her pants, she breathed a sigh of relief as the steam from the shower slowly rose and settled in the room.
Glancing around as she was finishing up, her eyes focused on the shower. The water from the showerhead came out in a consistent spray, droplets hitting against the floor, and pushing up steam.
Only moments ago, Serah was standing here.
Standing here with no clothes.
...Naked.
Her jaw dropped a bit lower, as her hand that gently propped her member to aim at the toilet, absent-mindedly started to rub against flesh.
Even as she turned around, her plump, round ass was in full view as she unfolded the towel.
Her stroking went deeper as she fantasized about the short distance to the shower wall, having her body pinned against-
"Light are you done yet?"
"Fuck what am I doing,", she berated herself. Serah was right there!
Hastily zipping up, she said, "Almost done!", and made sure to wash her hands thoroughly.
"Also, remember we talked about shopping for my dorm? Did you figure out if you have a couple of days off? If not, I think I'll go with some friends instead into Eden, look into some measurements for things we want to bring. "
"Erm, no I haven't figured that out yet. Work kept me busy so I forgot to ask Amodar."
Opening the door, Serah gave her a weird look, one eyebrow raised. She didn't say anything as she walked into the bathroom, leaving Light outside.
Did she hear me before?
Light took out her phone and put a note to talk to Amodar. Walking downstairs, she heard the beep of the microwave as her dinner finished re-heating.
