May contains major amounts of them being adorable.
The morning after Konata and Kagami finally got together made a late start. The two were sleeping so soundly through the whole night that they, especially in Kagami's case, lost quite a few hours of the morning, but it being Sunday made it not such a big of a problem. Still, she wasn't used to sleeping that in this late, even when sharing the bed with Konata and so, Kagami decided to wake up, at least sort of. She let her eyes closed and gave Konata, which she was hugging through the whole night, a gentle squeeze while enjoying the warmth and let out a comfortable sigh.
"Man, I had the best dream ever… Kona and I actually… Eh?! W-Wait…" She gave Konata another squeeze in order to confirm something Kagami just remembered. The 'dream' ended the with same she was feeling now and so she opened her eyes. Just like in her 'dream', the way she was embracing the smaller girl was exactly the same. "Seriously? Wow… I can't believe it… Ehehe…" Despite what she just said, the huge grin on her face and the giggling gave it away. Kagami knew perfectly well that it was true and she just needed a way to express her overflowing happiness. "That's so great!" She decided to stay in the bed for a little longer and continued to cuddle with Konata.
15 whole minutes passed and Kagami still didn't want to let go, but she remembered the cold of her sister.
"Ughh… I reallyyyy don't want to get up, but I should better check up on Tsukasa…" A few more moments of fighting against herself passed, but after whispering something in Konata's ear, she finally got up and left the room.
A minute of absolute silence passed in the room and Konata suddenly opened her eyes.
"W-Wow… I wasn't planning on pretending to be asleep… but I somehow missed the right time to speak up and… Dere Kagamin~ sure can be embarrassing." She listened to everything Kagami had said. "Casually whispering 'I love you' into my ear and then leaving… I don't remember raising such a smooth girl… It's good that she's as happy as I am, though. I mean, I finally cleared the Kagamin~ route! And even in hardcore mode without any save points that's called reality… Sooo unbelievable great!" Konata was easily as happy as Kagami and needed a few minutes before leaving the bed herself.
….
Kagami arrived at Tsukasa's room in the meanwhile and knocked repeatedly at her door. She had way too much energy after just waking up.
"Good morning, Tsukasa! How's your cold… Huh?" She sprung into the room, but was greeted by emptiness because Tsukasa wasn't there. After a bit of thinking, Kagami decided to go downstairs into the kitchen to check if she's there and maybe get a quick snack.
"Oh, good morning, onee-chan… If you still can call that morning." Tsukasa greeted her sister who had entered the kitchen and looked pretty smug for some reason.
"Yeah, yeah, I overslept a little… So, I guess your cold's better?"
"Yes, it's all gone. Sleeping for almost an entire day helped."
"That's good to hear."
"Absolutely."
"By the way, what are you doing, sis?"
"I'm looking for recipes to try out from the book I got from Kona-chan. I think I'm going with the chocolate cake I found."
"Uhh… chocolate cake, huh? Sounds great, but isn't it a bit early for cake?"
"Onee-chan… first off, it's almost noon and second, it's for the party…"
"O-Oh, right… the party… Well, it's not like I wanted to eat cake now in the first place… Absolutely not… B-But Kona's probably happy that you're trying something out of the book she got for you." Kagami wasn't fooling anyone, but Tsukasa decided to stay silent and she wanted to know something way more interesting in her eyes anyway.
"Speaking of Kona-chan, what did you two yesterday?"
"H-Huh? Uh… w-well, that's… hmm…" She had no idea what to answer. She and Konata decided not to actively try to hide their relationships from their friends, but telling it on her own and not even a day after it happened was a bit much. "N-Nothing out of the ordinary, I guess… J-Just having a good time or something like that…"
"Really? That's all? You look oddly happy and cheerful, onee-chan."
"Well, sorry for being in a good mood…"
"I-I'm sorry… I-I didn't mean it like that…" Tsukasa started panicking a little, but had no time to find a good excuse.
"Oh my, good morning, Kagami, you're finally up, huh? It's unusual for you to oversleep. What happened?" Miki came into the kitchen and was a bit curious.
"Urgh…" Kagami immediately had a bad feeling. "I-It just got a little late yesterday and…"
"Is that so? When did Konata go home anyway?"
"Uh… Well, she's still asleep in my… ehm… room."
"I see~."
"No, she isn't." Another voice suddenly joined the conversation by correcting Kagami.
"Oh, good morning, Kona-chan."
"Konata, hello."
"Hey, you two and heeelllloooo Kagamin~!"
"H-Hey, Kona, when did you wake up?" She became a bit nervous because she wasn't sure how to act right now.
"Actually…" Konata sheepishly scratched her head. "About half an hour ago…"
"I see… Wait, what?! H-Half an hour ago?! Does that mean…"
"Yes~, I heard everything. Kagamin~'s so cute."
"S-Shut up, idiot! Why didn't you say anything when you were awake?"
"Well… I didn't plan to stay silent, but I missed the point to speak up and then… It got way too interesting to even think about it…"
"You little…" She was about to get angry.
"But Kagamin~, I really liked what I heard because I think the same."
"Don't think your useless flattering will save you, Kona… The same…? R-Really?
"Of course! There shouldn't be any room for doubt anyway, right?" Konata playfully nudged Kagami's side with her elbow while saying so.
"Hmm… Ehehe…" Kagami's stupidly big grin from earlier was back and she looked super happy.
"Uhm… Kona-chan, what do you mean? What did onee-chan say?"
"H-Huh?!"
"Oh…" The two were completely lost in their own little world and forgot that they weren't alone in the kitchen.
"Sorry sis, but we're not going to tell you." Kagami quickly answered before Konata because she had a bad feeling with her answering first.
"Aww… Soooo mean…" Tsukasa started pouting.
"What about good old Miki? Come on, Konata, you know that you can tell me everything."
"Really, mom? You say that to her instead to your actual daughter?"
"I'm sorry, dear… Do you want to tell me then?"
"Ehm… no."
"I'm sorry, Miki, but I have to be on Kagami's side for a change here." Konata thought that sharing too much information with Miki could turn out to be pretty embarrassing for her… again.
"Aww… So mean…" She really is the mother of the twins.
"Thank you, Kona."
"You're welcome."
"These two…"
"Indeed." Tsukasa and Miki were throwing a small fit, bit Miki's expression soon turned into a gentle smile directed at Kagami and Konata. "Well, I think I had enough for today. Have fun at the party, later on, you three… Actually, only Miyuki is missing, though…" She let out a small giggle and left the kitchen.
"… A-Anyway…" Konata was pretty relieved that Miki didn't pressure her anymore, even though it looked like she was a bit doubtful. "What are you two doing in the kitchen?"
"Oh, I was looking for recipes in the cookbook you gave me, Kona-chan." Tsukasa said so and showed her the page with the chocolate cake.
"Nice… but a cake as the first meal of the day is a bit… even for me… Sure, it's perfect for Kagamin~ and all…"
"Kona-chan… you and onee-chan sure think alike, huh?"
"Hmm?"
"Onee-chan said almost the same, but also didn't look like she was serious."
"I-I really didn't want any cake!" Kagami became a bit red.
"Oh, Tsukasa became pretty sharp, huh?"
"Yes~."
"S-Shut up, you two!"
"Seriously, though, I'm quite hungry…"
Kagami wholeheartedly agreed with Konata and the two decided to eat something while Tsukasa continued the preparation for the cake.
….
Half an hour passed and the three girls went to Kagami's room in order to pass the time until Miyuki arrives.
"Hey, onee-chan, what's up with the bamboo cane on your desk?"
"H-Huh?! That's… oh…"
"That's just a little Tanabata play I did yesterday." Konata answered for her and whispered something to Kagami. "I placed the paper strip in your desk before leaving earlier."
"T-Thanks, Kona."
"Oh, right, speaking of yesterday, what did you get from Kona-chan, onee-chan?"
"That's true, I haven't shown you yet, have I?" Kagami grabbed inside her shirt and proudly revealed the necklace she got from Konata.
"Wooow, so pretty and the flower pendant looks really cute." Tsukasa looked with sparkly eyes at it." Good for you, onee-chan." She then gave her a little smirk.
"Yes, I really love it myself." She took another look at the necklace and then let it slide beneath her shirt again.
"Regarding yesterday… I kind of, totally accidentally of course, maybe lied to you just a little bit, Kagamin~. My bag with the stuff from yesterday actually isn't completely empty…"
"Ehh?! Don't tell me there's even more? No… wait a moment… It's stuff for copying homework, isn't it?"
"My Kagamin~ knows me so well." Konata praised her in her own way and jumped at Kagami in order to give her a hug.
"It's not that hard to look through you when it comes to homework, Kona."
"Hehe, well then, please do your best with the homework and then let me copy it, thanks."
"Do you really think that's going to work?"
"Oh, can I copy them, too, onee-chan?" Tsukasa just ignored the fact that her sister didn't react at all or not even blushed a little from Konata hugging her and decided to get the best out of the situation and used her puppy eyes for extra effect.
"Oi!"
"Come on, Kagamin~, I think I earned myself a reward for yesterday…"
"I'm pretty sure you got a fair compensation afterward already…"
"Hmm? Oh… you mean the… Right… Fair point…" Konata remembered the kiss from last night. She definitely already got her reward, but, as usual, Konata's a pretty greedy person. "Please~."
"What happened yesterday?"
"Ah!" Kagami had forgotten about Tsukasa again. "… Okay… fine you two can copy." She took the easy way out. Letting them copy was easier than arguing and explaining to Tsukasa.
"Yay!"
"Thank you, onee-chan."
"Yeah, yeah…"
And with that, the three girls spent the next two hours with homework. Well, Kagami did. Konata and Tsukasa spent one hour and 45 minutes with a heated discussion about the perfect dessert and the remaining 15 minutes with copying what Kagami did.
….
Their homework was 'done' and it didn't take long until Miyuki arrived afterward. The doorbell rang and Tsukasa bolted right up.
"Yuki-chan's here!" She said so and basically vanished out of the room.
"Wow, someone's excited there."
"Y-Yeah..."
"Oh, regarding this morning when I was asleep, Kagamin~."
"Hmm?"
"I love you, too, of course." Konata totally caught her off guard, but that wasn't everything. She leaned over and gave Kagami a quick peck on the lips before leaving the room. "That's for being so smooth in the morning. Come on, let's go and greet Miyuki." She went downstairs, but Kagami needed a moment before standing up.
"Eh…? Wait… huh?" It took her a moment to comprehend what happened, but then she decided to follow Konata.
"Hey there, Yuki-chan."
"Hello, Tsukasa-san. Oh, and… Izumi-san." Miyuki greeted the two girls she saw at the entrance.
"Hey, Miyuki, uhm… K-Kagamin~ should also come soon enough." The stunt Konata pulled off earlier also applied some damage to herself. She was stuttering a bit and a slight blush was present on her cheeks.
"Good day, Kagami-san. My, did something happen?" Miyuki saw Kagami's completely red face when coming downstairs and got a little worried, or rather, interested according to her smile.
"N-No… nothing happened. N-Nothing at all…" She wasn't very convincing, but got unexpected and probably unplanned help.
"Let's go upstairs already, Yuki-chan."
"Just one moment please, Tsukasa-san. First off, happy birthday to you and Kagami-san." She congratulated the twins and then handed both some flowers and a present each over.
After that, Tsukasa got her will and they went upstairs. She had successfully diverted the attention, even though unconsciously, away from her sister who sighed in relief. She and Konata were a bit lagging behind the other two.
"Y-You can't do something like that out of the blue, Kona…" She referred to what Konata did before going downstairs.
"W-Why not?"
"Because I need to prepare myself for it, especially my heart, that is…"
"I see…"
"Wait, why's your face also red, Kona?"
"W-Well, I maybe, kind of, just theoretically speaking, wasn't exactly planning on doing what I did and… You know, it was unconsciously and so… Maybe, just maybe, but totally not sure… Perhaps… I got a tiny bit embarrassed myself after doing it… Still, I'm just theoretically speaking here… don't take me too serious…"
"Oh my god, you're way too adorable, Kona!" Kagami's own embarrassment was totally gone and she just wanted to hug Konata right now.
"L-Like I said, it's not like that…"
"So cute." Someone was having a lot of fun.
"Shut up, idiot!"
"Ehehe" Kagami got what she wanted.
"T-Tsukasa! Kagamin~'s bullying me again!" Konata yelled upstairs for help.
"You shouldn't do that, onee-chan!" And she promptly got the desired backup.
"You little…" With that, Kagami got a little angry and decided to chase Konata upstairs. The two were so fast that they even arrived before Tsukasa and Miyuki in Tsukasa's room, but managed to hold back there because they actually remembered that the two weren't alone.
"G-Good thing I have witnesses here…"
"Don't think it's over already, Kona."
"Huh… Somehow, I'm looking kind of forward to it…"
"What? Just what are you thinking about?"
"Probably the same as you, Kagamin~."
"Hmm…" She did.
"What are they talking about, Tsukasa-san?" The other two also arrived in the room.
"I have absolutely no idea, Yuki-chan."
"Did something happen again?"
"I don't know either, but the two are acting rather odd all day long already."
"What do you mean?"
"Well…" Tsukasa gestured at Konata and Kagami, who were again lost in their own little world and were completely ignoring them.
"Is that any different from usual?"
"Uhh…" Tsukasa was at a loss for words.
"Well, I guess they look happier than usual?"
"Yes! That's what I meant!"
"Wait a moment… What do you mean with all day? Since when is Izumi-san here?"
"Oh, right… She's here since yesterday."
"Is she?"
"Yeah, and it looks they had a lot of fun yesterday, but they won't tell me anything… Oh, and you have to see what Kona-chan got for onee-chan's birthday!" Tsukasa managed to get her sisters attention and Kagami proudly showed her necklace to Miyuki.
"Oh my, that looks really good on you, Kagami-san."
"Thank you."
"How did you decide on a necklace, Izumi-san?" Miyuki obviously got really interested.
"Well, Kagamin~ dropped one or two hints on me when we visited a jeweler some time ago."
"T-That wasn't my intention back then…"
"I know that, Kagamin~."
"That's nice… Wait…" Miyuki realized something. "Why exactly were you two visiting a jeweler together…?"
"Ehm, no… we didn't really plan on doing that… We were just taking a stroll when we ended up there or something like that."
"Oh, that's what it was…" Miyuki wasn't sure what she should've expected.
"My, what were you thinking, Miyuki." Konata decided to have some fun at her expense.
"H-Huh? I-I wasn't really thinking about anything." Miyuki was fidgeting a little and Kagami suddenly started grinning.
"Is that so? To me, it looked like you were imagining something." Both, Kagami and Konata, knew that Miyuki and Tsukasa were trying to get the two together. Having a bit of fun with this was only fair in their eyes. And of course, it was really fun.
"N-No, i-it really isn't like that…"
Konata and Kagami tried their best and even lasted almost a minute, but in the end, the two started laughing. Miyuki was too flustered to say any more and so, the topic was dropped.
The birthday party, or rather the usual get-together went along smoothly. Tsukasa served the cake she made and Konata was now sure that the gift for her was a good idea. The girls kept chatting about various things and the day soon came to an end. Thanks to them not finding a moment to be alone, a normal goodbye had to suffice for Konata and Kagami. Both absolutely weren't regretting their decision to wait for their friends to find out on their own right own.
…
Konata arrived at home and was about to head to her room, but she ran into her father.
"Oh, welcome back, Konata. How was the birthday?"
"Hey, dad. It was… amazing." She smiled from ear to ear.
"That's an interesting way to describe… What happened?"
"Good things, very good things."
"O… kay…" Sojiro had no idea what was going on.
"By the way, the novel going well as usual?"
"D-Don't remind me of that!"
"Huh?"
"My editor rejected the last three chapters and I have to change soooo much!"
"Tough luck, huh? Well, have fun with that. I've got to and maybe plan some stuff with Kagamin~."
"Eh? Why? Weren't you just with her?"
"Because… reasons… many of them…" With that being said, Konata had again a huge grin on her face and disappeared into her room.
"Okay, that was… interesting. Well, gotta edit those stupid chapters…"
Konata entered her room and was about to call Kagami because of said reasons. But something else caught her interest before.
"Well, I guess I could play a little first…" The temptation was too high and before she even knew, Konata had started her PC and loaded her usual online game. "Oh, sensei's online. That's rare… hehehe…"
Konakona: Yo, sensei!
Nanakon: Izumi!
Konakona: Doing the same as every time, huh?
Nanakon: Oi! -.-
Konakona: xD
Nanakon: And? Speak up!
Konakona:?
Nanakon: How did it go? Let me guess, chickened out, right?
Konakona: Ah, that…
Nanakon: A proper crash and burn, huh?
Konakona: How rude! I'm not you, sensei!
Nanakon: Oh, your next test is going to look pretty bad, Izumi.
Konakona: NOOOOOOOOOOO! ;;
Nanakon: Wait a moment! You serious?!
Konakona: Yep! I properly cleared the route yesterday!
Nanakon: Wow! Congratz!
Konakona: Thanks.
Nanakon: So, when am I going to meet this mysterious girl? ;)
Konakona: According to her… probably never.
Nanakon: HeHe.
Konakona: But seriously, don't make any stupid jokes at school.
Nanakon: Just who do you think I am?
Konakona: Kuroi-sensei.
Nanakon: OI!
Nanakon: Of course not. After all, Hiiragi's rage is even known in the faculty room…
Konakona: Ha! I knew it! Kagamin~'s tsundere rage is famous after all.
Nanakon: Finally admitting that it's her, huh?
Konakona: Come on, you knew it from the beginning.
Nanakon: That's true…
Konakona: Probably wasn't that hard to guess in the first place.
Nanakon: What do the friends think?
Konakona: We're playing a game with them right now. 'Who's the first to find out.'
Nanakon: No hiding then?
Konakona: Nah, we already know they're fine with it. Or rather, they even tried to push us multiple times already because they were sick of how we acted. We thought it's gonna be fun to find out how long they need to notice.
Nanakon: Such a nice couple.
Konakona: :)
Nanakon: What about parents?
Konakona: Oh, we actually haven't talked about that. Probably keep it low there for some time first.
Nanakon: That's probably a good idea, but you have to clear that quest before the wedding. I'm invited, right?
Konakona: Sensei… -.- I don't need another person joking about that…
Nanakon: Aww, I'm not the first person to tease you about it? Who's it? I want to have a word with them.
Konakona: Oh no, nononono, not going to happen. Absolutely not. NEVER!
Nanakon: Oh? Now you have my attention.
Konakona: Hey sensei, how about an all-night grinding party?
Nanakon: I'm in! I'm soooo in!
The topic was averted, but neither Konata nor Kuroi-sensei were of any use on Monday in school. It became mostly self-study and the two finally found a bit of sleep. Kagami was a bit angry that she hadn't gotten a call that night and Konata also felt a bit bad that she forgot about it while gaming, but a pouty Kagami was something like a reward for her and so, no lessons were learned.
…
The remaining week in school was rather peaceful. Not that nothing happened, Miyuki and Tsukasa just never saw the other two during breaks. Kagami never came over and Konata vanished into thin air the moment the bell rang. The remaining two had no idea what was going on, but were growing more and more suspicious.
The weekend arrived soon enough and Kagami came over to Konata's place as usual.
"Yo."
"Ah, welcome, Kagamin~." Konata welcomed her when she saw Kagami entering her room.
"What's up?" She sat down on Konata's bed, grabbed one of the many light novels she'd casually stored in the room and made herself more comfortable.
"Nothing much, just the usual."
"Oh, that's no good…" She knew perfectly well what the usual is.
"Hehe. And, any plans for the weekend?"
"Mhhm… not really… What about you, Kona?"
"Why is it always me who has to decide?"
"Because you're good at it."
"Heh~." Konata was pretty happy and didn't even realize how easy she was manipulated by her. "Well, I guess it can't be helped then."
"And?"
"I have absolutely no idea whatsoever."
"So much for that…"
"Hmm… Well, I guess we normally should do something date-like now, right? Go outside somewhere and stuff…"
"Uhm… probably…?"
"How does the exact opposite sounds?"
"Eh?"
"You know, something like staying here, playing a game or watching a movie and taking it easy."
"Oh, you mean our usual thing, huh?"
"Exactly. Sure, we'll go on dates once I find a dating game worthy of Kagami-sama in order to get some good references."
"And with that, all future date activities are going to be planned by me."
"Aww, but what about my ehm… uh, let's call it an indoor date? Just the two of us leisure spending our time here?"
"I think that's… Wait, where's your dad? I really don't want to repeat what happened last time…"
"Heeeh~? Ka~ga~min~, what are you imagining~? Konata started grinning from ear to ear. "I really just meant playing a game."
"W-What?! Ehm… It's not like want to peacefully cuddle with you all day or anything…"
"Wow…" Konata was honestly surprised. "Such an adorable creature is actually my girlfriend… I'm such a lucky girl..."
"Ehehe…" She went from embarrassed to happy in less than a second.
"But my father, huh? Well, last time I saw him… Wait, when was it again? Oh, right… A few days ago, I think four to be exact, I saw him carrying a mini-fridge into his room and then… no, I think that was the last time… Now that I think about it… Should I be worried?"
"Ehhh?! You probably should… for various reasons…"
"Maybe I should check up on him then…"
"Hey, not so fast there, Kona. I'm sure it's fine if you wait until tomorrow."
"Oho, someone's eager."
"Okay then, let's go with your plan, Kona."
"Nononono… Wait, how about we just ignore my slight idiocy and…"
"Slight?"
"Shut up… and combine both ideas?"
"How's that supposed to work?"
"Well, that's pretty easy…" Konata got up from the chair she was sitting on, turned on the game console and gave Kagami one of the controllers while keeping one for herself. After that, she climbed on the bed and gently pushed Kagami against the wall. When her position was right, Konata sat down on her lap and moved Kagami's arms around her waist. "That's how you combine both."
"I see… I can see the TV, can hold my controller and have something cuddly right in front of me… Not bad. Really, not bad, Kona." Kagami looked pretty impressed. She pulled her closer to herself and rested her chin on Konata's shoulder I order to get a better view of the TV and, of course, get as much body contact as possible.
"So brutally honest, the dere part is strong in you."
"Do you think you're in the position to make your tsundere jokes, Kona?"
"I always am!"
"Is that so?" Konata couldn't see Kagami's evil smile, but she soon enough realized her mistake. The next thing she felt was that escaping had become impossible because Kagami's grip around her waist became much stronger.
"O-Oh… the right position was meant literally, huh?"
Kagami didn't answer and instead, she just threw her over. Konata landed on the bed and she jumped on top of her while restraining Konata's arms.
"Hey, Kagamin~, is it just me or does that happen quite often?"
"It is… and it's always your fault."
"I wouldn't go that far…"
"I would, I did and I will again."
"Sassy Kagamin~, always nice."
"Hehe."
"But you know, that's the first time after we're together."
"We're pretty weird, aren't we, Kona?"
"Just the way I like it."
"Yeah, that's how we are after all."
"So, Kagamin~, what now?" Konata looked at Kagami on top of her and waited for an answer.
"Hmm… First time after we got together, you say…" Konata got her answer soon enough, but not in spoken form. While still restraining the arms of the defenseless girl beneath her, Kagami lowered her head a little.
"Oh, I like where this is going…"
"Just. Shut. Up." Kagami wasn't in the mood for talking. It definitely wasn't a bad mood, far from it, but talking wasn't appropriate right now. Konata silently nodded and stopped talking. Kagami continued where she stopped before and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.
Konata felt more teased than anything else and decided to speed things up a bit. She wrapped her arms around Kagami's neck and pulled her head close in order to get a full kiss on the lips. Unsurprisingly, Kagami didn't fight back at all and welcomed the eagerness. The two shared a couple more kisses until she wanted to try something different. Kagami let go of Konata's lips and slowly moved towards her neck where she placed multiple more heavy kisses. The reaction she got from Konata, the playful winding and squirming, only increased her excitement. Kagami moved away from her neck and made her way up to Konata's ear, where she playfully started nibbling on her earlobe. Konata's winding and squirming made her only more eager, at least for a short moment.
"Mhmm." Konata let out a small moan and Kagami immediately stopped in her tracks. The unusual, unexpected and rather cute sound from Konata made her slip back to reality and Kagami let go of her ear while moving away a little before looking Konata directly into her eyes.
"Pfft." Kagami didn't know how to react and just laughed as a first response. For some reason, she wasn't embarrassed in the slightest. That was Konata's job anyway right now.
"…" She naturally hadn't planned to let that sound out and she just wanted to hide somewhere, but her red face would be visible even from space. "W-Well…"
"Ehehe… did I just found a weak point of yours?"
"N-No, you did not!"
"Really~? It sure sounded like it and that you liked it."
"S-Shut up!" Both knew that Kagami was right, but accepting was a different matter altogether.
"I never thought I would find one first, though."
"And I never thought you would be the perverted one here, Kagamin~. Actually… the silent types are usually the… Wait, you're not really the silent type… You nag all the time, not complaining by the way, I like it, and… you actually don't do that much lately anyway… Huh? Does that even count? Silent type usually means something else, right? Ehm… Anyway, I'm surprised that I'm not surprised or, I'm not surprised that I'm surprised… ehh? Where was I again? Ah, right, pervy Kagamin~ was it…" She had totally lost it on the way.
"Kona?"
"Yes?"
"Can I hit you? I really want to hit you right now… Please?"
"That wouldn't help your position much, Kagamin~."
"Eh?"
"A-Anyway…" Konata decided to give up. "Next time, I'm going to have to find two weak points of yours."
"Is that so? I don't think I can agree with that."
"Who said you have a saying in that?"
"Oh, you just sealed your own fate, Kona. I'll make it my personal goal that I'll never lose my lead and the only thing that's going to change is the gap between our points." Both were easily as competitive as the other and Konata began to have a bad feeling about it.
"Hey, Kagamin~, as nice as this was and I mean really super extreme nice…"
"Yeah, it was…" The competitive and cheeky grin changed into a goofy and sweet one.
"How about we go back to our original plan for now? Cuddly gaming session, that is."
"That sounds… just perfect." Both wanted to cool down a little and went back to their initial position on the bed. Kagami leaned against the wall and Konata sat down on her lap while placing Kagami's arms around her waist. Both became really relaxed and let out a comfortable sigh.
"Ahh, how nice~." Konata was about the controller again to finally start a game when she felt Kagami tense up behind her.
"Oh…" She turned a bit pale. "Oh-oh…"
"Hmm?"
"Well…" Kagami was fixated on Konata's neck and brushed a few hair strands away. "I… I left a mark…"
"Huh? Really? Like I said before… pervert."
"Kona… it's not the time for that… not that I won't punish you later…"
"Ehhh… I just can't win, can I?"
"Shut up and stay focused!"
"I always am!"
"You never are!"
"Okay, go on." Konata gave up.
"What do we do now?"
"What's the problem? It's not like it's that big anyway, is it?" Konata couldn't see the hickey and so, she just took a guess.
"W-Well…" Not a good one.
"Hmm… okay, it's only Saturday, it should be gone when school starts on Monday, right?"
"Actually… those things easily last a week or so…"
"Oh… I'm starting to see the problem now."
"What now, Kona."
"Eh… Who cares? Do you really think Tsukasa will understand the connection in the first place?"
"Oi! Well, yeah… you could say it's a bug bite and she wouldn't question it, but Miyuki…"
"Right… Miyuki… Yep, we're screwed. Well, it lasted a little over a week… Already longer than I thought."
"Oh, we could try a bit of makeup to mask it."
"I guess that could work."
"Okay, let's do that."
"Crisis successfully averted, Kagamin~."
"Yeah."
"Heh, now I can play a little longer with them."
"Maybe we should just tell our friends."
"Aww…"
"How about we start the game now, Kona?"
"Now that's a good idea."
The two finally started what they planned from the very beginning. Konata handed one controller over and Kagami wrapped her arms around Konata again. The game loaded, Kagami placed her head on Konata's should and the two played and cuddled until late at night where both fell asleep in each other arms.

These two are going to be the end of me... Way too adorable.
I think I kind of messed a bit too much with their characters. I have the feeling Konata is is more tsundere than Kagami sometimes. It doesn't exactly fit their original characters much, but at the same time, it somehow does... Kagami needed some time to warm up and become honest and now that she is, Konata has no idea how to handle her anymore. Kagami knows that and also how to use it. I think she's a tiny bit on the S side...
Anyway, I love them both with how I portray them.
If someone's wondering about the making out in the end... I want this story to be rather 'tame'. It will probably get a bit more, but I'm never going to change it to something M-Rated.
Next chapter... I kind of want to do something focused on Miyuki and Tsukasa for a change, but I'm not entirely sure what yet. I have a rough idea, but something's still missing there. After that, probably summer break and I'm open for suggestions there.
