"So how about for our next date, we go for a swim?"

That was the question asked by none other than Touko Namami as the woman she held deep admiration for, Yuu Koito, looked at her with a slight blush on her face. The two were spending time together in Touko's bedroom as Yuu needed tutoring for her math homework. But as the two had just finished up, Touko brought up the very question that made Yuu squirm a bit.

"W-Well… I guess that IS something we haven't done yet… but…" Yuu trailed off, seeming uncomfortable at the idea which surprised Touko.

"Not much of a swimmer?" Touko asked, trying to figure out Yuu's reaction.

"No, that's not it!" Yuu insisted. "I love swimming! It's just…"

"It's just…?" Touko continued, trying to encourage Yuu to continue. When she noticed Yuu was still struggling, Touko turned her chair to directly face Yuu. She then grabbed her hands as their fingers interlocked. Giving her a warm smile, she nodded and gave Yuu as much time as she needed before continuing.

"This girl… forever unfair." Yuu thought to herself, sighing as she realized there was no escaping this topic. In all honesty, Yuu hated the idea of not voicing her concerns she had to Touko and keep secrets but it didn't make it any less harder given the subject at hand.

"Fiiiine." Yuu finally said with an eye roll as Touko leaned in closer to hear every word Yuu would say. "Truth is… it makes me nervous going swimming with you, okay? I want to! I really do! But it's just… Swimsuits and stuff…" Yuu said, muttering that last part as Touko barely heard it. This took Touko by surprise as her eyes widened.

"Yuu, are you embarrassed to wear a swimsuit around me?" Touko asked, wanting to get straight to the heart of the matter.

"…Maybe." Yuu muttered as she looked over to the nearby math book and kept her eyes fixated on that so that she wouldn't need to look at Touko instead.

"But what about when we went to camp? You didn't have any issue when we all took a bath together!" Touko pointed out as the memories of camp came rushing back to her. Touko then had to try real hard not to dwell on the mental image of naked Yuu during that time. Shaking her head of any lewd thoughts, she focused back on present Yuu and her dilemma.

"That was different!" Yuu insisted. "Ever since I confessed my love to you and we've been closer than ever, I feel… I dunno. You're beautiful, Touko! Everything about you is just beautiful. Meanwhile, I stopped playing baseball so I'm not tone anymore and I probably packed on a couple pounds since then and-"

"Yuu." Touko said suddenly, cutting the shorter girl off. The older girl pecked Yuu on the forehead, making Yuu look at her with an even bigger blush that Touko couldn't help but think looked incredibly adorable. "I think you're beautiful too, both inside and out. So please, stop beating yourself down like that."

"It's weird." Yuu stated as she gave a small smile. "I don't think I ever worried so much about my appearance. Like, I try to look good and take care of myself but when I imagine myself in a swimsuit and then imagine you in a swimsuit… it feels like I'm out of my league."

"Whaaaaat? Hehe, oh Yuu…" Touko said with a giggle. "Have more confidence in yourself. I think nothing but the world of you! Back at camp, I struggled so much not to gawk at you and even then, I'm preeetty sure I stole a glance or two…" Touko said with a blush, making Yuu raise an eyebrow at her.

"Wow. Perv, much?" Yuu joked as Touko brought a hand to her chest and acted offended."

"I can only do so much when a beautiful maiden such as yourself is within my presence! The steam from the hot bath couldn't compare to the flaming passion within my heart for the lovely Yuu Koito!" Touko said, prompting an unamused look from Yuu as Touko grinned playfully. "Too much? Here I thought the acting classes would have paid off!" Touko joked as the two girls started laughing together. Once the laughter seemed to finally die down, Yuu smiled and returned a kiss to Touko's forehead, making the older girl's heart soar.

"Okay, you win. We'll go swimming together." Yuu agreed as Touko was grinning even bigger. "So… since you brought it up and have me curious… gawking? Me?" Yuu clarified as Touko nodded eagerly.

"You're gonna be beautiful in a swimsuit, just like how you're always beautiful." Touko declared. Maaaaybe I can even help you buy a-"

"Nope." Yuu cut her off, smirking. "The pervert's gonna need to wait and see!" Yuu said to a now pouting Touko, prompting Yuu to laugh at the reaction. "But who knows… maybe you'll get a sneak preview later on." Yuu thought to herself as the two continued spending the day together until it was time to her go home.

Later on that night, Touko was enjoying dinner with her parents when her phone went off. When she looked and saw it was Yuu who texted her with an image attached, Touko just opened the message by instinct. Once she saw the image though, she almost choked on her food as she was in a coughing fit, surprising her parents.

"Touko, is everything okay?" Her mother asked in a concerned tone.

"Did something happen?" Her father asked, more confused than anything else.

"Umm! Yeah! I'm good! Absolutely dandy! Haha… wow this food sure is delicious! Mmmm!" Touko said in a high pitched voice, her cheeks red as can be as she tried stuffing her face with food and changing the topic. Her parents gave each other confused glances before accepting their daughter's odd behavior, her mother detailing how she prepared the meal.

Later on after dinner, Touko darted to her room and opened the picture Yuu had sent her. It turned out that the image that sent Touko into a mess was Yuu taking a selfie. But this picture of herself was special because she was wearing a white one piece bathing suit that clung real tight to her, the peach haired girl giving a tiny smile and looking a bit bashful with a blush. It was clear from Yuu's expression that she was a little embarrassed in her swimsuit. Touko then looked down to see that Yuu also wrote some words after the image.

"How do I look?" Yuu asked. To which Touko used every single heart and drool emote that she could find.

Touko then spent the rest of her night dreaming not so innocently
