Ina's Happiness and Love
Pairing: Gura x Ina
Genre: Romance
Disclaimer: I do not own any Virtual Youtuber characters.
A lovely afternoon. Ina is at her home, drawing something new. She works her magic with her pencil, drawing what came to mind earlier. And quite frankly, the thought was…love. She has seen Kiara flirt with Calli many times. And Amelia giving Gura many lectures and scoldings, but also acting like a married couple between them. For Ina, it would've been okay. However, there is one small thing: she is interested in Gura.
Now, when it comes to love, Ina would've dated Gura right then and there. But considering that the baby shark is just a child, Ina decided against it and wanted to remain good friends.
However how long would it last? She draws some more to find herself drawing a piece of herself and then drawing another figure to look like Gura.
"Ahhh…I'm losing it, am I?" She says to herself.
She is usually the quiet one when it comes to being with other people. Maybe 3 or more. But that's when she's with some unfamiliar people. When she's with Gura or the other Hololive EN members, she talks more. Probably because she's a lot more comfortable with them.
Ina stops for a moment to look at the rough sketch of Gura and herself holding hands. Is this what couples do?
KNOCK! KNOCK!
"Ah!" Ina jumps from the sudden knocking. "C-Come in!"
The door opens and speak of the devil, the baby shark herself hops in, waving.
"What's up, Ina~?" Gura greets.
"Ah, hi, Gura." Ina greets back with a nod and then turns back to her drawing. "What's new with you?"
"I'm bored," Gura says, giving an exaggerated sigh. "I've played some games pretty much all day, plus talking with Calli and Kiara." She makes her way toward the couch and plops down on it, having her face meet the pillow. "Found my resting plaaace~"
Ina gives a soft giggle. "You are funny sometimes. So how is Kiara and Calli?"
"Kiara is flirting with Calli like always," Gura says as she lies on her side. "And Calli is being...what do you call it...tsundere? like always as well?"
"Sounds like they're acting like the yuri couple everybody loves," Ina says as she busies herself with drawing.
"Aren't they~?" Gura says. "Ohhhh, they are an awesome couple!" She lies on her back and stretches out her arms.
Ina, always one to be accommodating, uses a tentacle to slip Gura's pillow more securely under the shark girl's head, holding in a laugh as the fish out of water wiggles every which way in her pursuit to get comfy.
"Ahh, thanks Ina, getting comfy is always tricky with my tail."
"Oh no problem. It took me forever to get comfortable with my tentacles before I could poof them away."
Gura emits an agreement "mhm" as she snuggles into the couch, as her feet comes within a few inches of Ina's thigh.
"Gura, would you like a takosage?"
"Takosage? The heck is that?"
"Roll over onto your tummy and I'll show you."
Gura nods and does what she is told. Ina puts down her materials and uses her tentacles to gently rub Gura's back. The baby shark can feel the tentacles go up and down and in circular motions, relaxing her almost immediately.
"Oh, my gosh, Ina~" she sighs with bliss. "Oh, that feels nice! Yes, right there~"
"Ehehe~" Ina giggles. "I'm glad you like it. Do you want to be more comfortable?"
"Oh, yes~" Gura says. "What do I do?"
"Sit on my lap," Ina says. "I'll do the rest."
"Sure~!"
Ina pulls her tentacles away to let Gura hop up and plop down on Ina's lap, her back toward her. Her tail curved to the side. Ina gives a nod and uses her tentacles to gently rub Gura's shoulders.
"Ahhhhhhh~" Gura sighs with bliss. "Ohhhh, yes, that feels reaaaaally good~"
Just then, because of the massage feeling so good that cat ears pop out. Ina's tender massage bring out Gura's cat ears, the feline features poofing into existence atop the shark's head from sheer relaxation. Her muscular shark tail idly swishes and twitches from the pure blissful peace.
"My, my~" Ina coos. "You went full sharkfish~"
"Shush, this is nice," Gura says and closes her eyes. She relishes in the good feeling of the "takosage" that Ina calls it.
It lasts for only 15 minutes, but Ina finds herself blushing from doing it for Gura. It also feels good for herself since she is going through the trouble helping Gura feel better.
When Ina finishes with her massage, Gura turns around, still sitting on Ina's lap and scoots a bit closer to her. "Thanks, Ina! I feel much better now~!"
"I'm glad," Ina says softly.
She finds herself staring at Gura, now that the are inches close to each other. Gura's cat ears wiggle as she just smiles at her. The baby shark/cat is so adorable it's so difficult to resist her. She can feel her heart skip a beat from just looking at her. She swallows hard and slightly turns her head away.
"What's the matter, Ina?" Gura asks. "Is there something on my face?"
"No...it's not that," Ina replies. "It's just that...I'm feeling...funny on my chest. I think...maybe it's..."
"Love~?" Gura tilts her head with a smile. "Like how Kiara and Calli are~?
"Ah..." Ina blushes harder, but nods. "B-but...you'll understand when you're older."
"Ina, surprise, I'm already 9000 plus years old. I may be pretty small, but I am still smarter than I look" the shark says with a playful smile. "I may not be adult looking, but I am old enough to know what love feels like... even if I've never had it."
Ina hangs her head low for a moment before saying softly, "Sorry Gura, it's hard to remember things like that when you are... well, you all the time."
"Oi oi, I am plenty mature" she says flailing in Ina's arms, making the tentacled woman laugh.
"OK OK I get it" Ina says as she calms down.
"Still, I'm not really ready for the... super ecchi stuff yet" Gura says as she blushes at the mention of such things.
"It's ok Gura, We have plenty of time, there's no rush."
It is at that moment that the sound of time itself crunching and dilating filled the room as Amelia stepped out of her time bubble, "Whew! Hey girls, what's up?"
"Hey Ame, we were just having a talk about... grown up stuff."
Ame raises a slim blonde eyebrow, looking the two over, "Well ok, you two let me know if you want to talk later, I've gotta go prepare for my next stream."
"Have fun!" Gura says as she spun around to look Ina directly in the eyes afterward, "Now, where were we?"
Ina stares at Gura for a second. There is a bit of a sad expression on her face. The fact that Amelia Watson appeared and Gura being all friendly with her. She has almost forgotten that those two have a thing together.
"Ina? What's the matter?" the baby shark asks.
"Nothing," Ina says. "The truth is Gura...I'm...in love with you."
"You are?" Gura asks. "Is that why you spoke of...love?"
"Yes," Ina says. "B-but...since you and Ame like each other already, I'd rather not interfere."
Gura stares into the tentacled woman's eyes. She seems...like she's feeling really lonely when she said that. Surely Amelia has nothing to do with this, but Gura figures that Amelia's presence alone has made Ina feel a bit insecure. She raises a hand to gently caress Ina's cheek.
"It's okay," Gura whispers. "Ame and I are just best friends."
"Eh...?" Ina says as a lone tear falls from her eye.
Gura scratches the back of her head, sheepishly smiling, "I mean, I like Ame, I like Calli and Kiara and you, I wouldn't say no to being with any of you, because I also love you girls... but I'd be willing to love all of you... whatever that means to you girls…"
Her cat ears are folded down, clearly she is thinking quite hard of how to say these things.
"So... do you love us... like I love you, Gura?"
"I mean... yes? I know I have enough room in my little sharkie heart for all of you girls... but I just.. haven't figured out how to show it yet. Y'know?"
"Well," Ina says as her tentacles curls around Gura gently, "How about we start small and work our way up?"
Gura blushes and nods, leaning in to hug Ina, the purple tentacles patting her on the back, Gura somehow purring from contentment.
Ina smiles as she holds the shark close.
"You want to just snuggle for a bit?" Ina asks softly, Gura nodding as she nestled into the Squid-like woman's arms.
"Ehehe! I'll be more than happy~"
Gura kisses Ina on the cheek and then snuggles on Ina's lap with the tentacled girl gently stroking her hair whispering, "I love you, Gura~"
Gura, blushing but still content, softly whispered back "I love you too, Ina."
Omega-kun: Welp, that was fun. We should really collaborate more often... too bad stuff has been sideways of late. Oh well. This was worth it. What do you think, Yuri-chan?
Yuri: Yeah we should. It's been a little late for both of us to write together but we pulled it off. I'm glad I could write this with you, Omega-kun. Ina is my favorite Hololive EN character so that's why i wanted to write this.
Omega-kun: And Gura being mine it was a treat to do. Though I admit, hard to pick favorites among the EN girls. Best of Luck to HoloCouncil and it's members. Maybe we'll have stories to tell concerning them as well.
Yuri: Yeah probably gonna take time to get used to though. Anyways, hope you enjoyed this story. Thanks again for writing it with me.
Omega-kun: Absolutely. Farewell for now, dear readers!
Yuri: Have a nice day!
