Thank you everyone for your awesome reviews! After reading all of them I have decided to incorporate a "jealous" chapter suggested by evolvelove and the idea of holding a school dance suggested by Alesi-san in my next chapter.
Also who screamed and cried out in joy in the new chapter of Shokugeki no Soma manga (chap 175)? The Sorina scenes were beautiful and our ship is sailing so hard.
On another note, there will be a part 2 to this particular one-shot so tune in. Hope you enjoy it! However, slight WARNING, this chapter contains some more intense scenes but no smut.
Soma had his hands in his pockets as he slowly made his way towards one of the many buildings suited in Totsuki's campus. From his memory, Erina should be attending her French cooking class last period and he wanted to catch her so they could go back to the dorm together. Around Soma, cherry blossoms had begun to bloom signalling the beginning of Spring. Pink petals drifted peacefully around him reminding him of one of his other objectives today. It had been announced today that the annual Spring festival dance will be held in a month's time and all students were expected to bring a date to this formal event. Naturally, Soma intended to ask his girlfriend, Erina Nakiri, the god's tongue and the Princess of Totsuki.
Soma as turned the corner, he knew he was very close to his destination from the smell of French delicacies that had attacked his nose.
"Yukihira Kun!" shouted a girl breathlessly, her hands placed on her knees as she panted heavily. Her eyes sparkled brightly as they met his and she smiled warmly as she slowly approached him.
The girl before Soma was Sophia Vermillion, the daughter of one of the biggest providers of Belgium chocolate in the world. Her father was a Belgian who inherited the large chocolatier business from his own parents, whilst her mother was half Belgian and half Japanese. Sophia being three quarters Belgian had a head of luscious mahogany locks that ended just above her waist and her skin was as pale as summer's luminous moon.
"Do you have a minute Yukihira Kun?" asked Sophia, her plump crimson red lips curled up into a soft smile as she finally stood directly in front of him.
"Uh yeah I guess so," Soma replied, scratching his head. His eyes darted towards the classroom at the end of the long hallway, silently praying that his girlfriend had not left her last class yet.
"Yukihira Kun," Sophia slurred as she leant in towards Soma, giving him a full sight of her busty chest. Her blush was obvious as she grabbed his hands in hers, "um…you haven't asked anyone to the Spring Festival Dance right?"
Soma stared wide eyed at the sudden intimacy displayed by the foreign girl. Indeed, Soma did share a few classes with this girl and even worked with her a couple of times in cooking activities at her request. However, the sudden contact was uncalled for and he had no idea why Sophia was acting all 'chummy' with him all of a sudden.
In the meantime, Erina had finished clearing her bench top and was satisfied with the usual "A" she received in her French cooking class. Waving goodbye to Hisako, Erina exited her classroom. She stretched her hands, curving her back slightly before inhaling deeply. The scent of cherry blossoms caressed her nostrils whilst the peaceful sight of falling petals soothed her tired mind, it was then, she noticed 2 students sharing an intimate moment in the middle of the hallway.
Erina flicked her hair and crossed her hands across her chest before walking towards the exit of the building. In doing so, she had to pass the two students who were currently in an extremely proximate position.
Although she had been dating Soma for a few months, Erina had never understood why people would exhibit such intimate behaviours on school grounds. Sure, she had shared kisses and passionate make-out sessions with Soma during their various dates and in their rooms in Polar dorm; but she had never gone beyond kissing Soma's cheeks when their friends or other students of Totsuki were around.
Her movements were suddenly halted. Her legs were planted firmly on the ground as she stared at the pair before her. That red hair was so distinct that she could recognise it anywhere. That boy was Yukihira Soma no doubt. Erina could feel heat rising to her cheeks as she watched that girl lean into towards Soma even further, flashing her cleavage right in front of his eyes. She was furious, her blood boiled as she wondered why Soma remained in the position he was in. The churning feeling in her stomach was one that she had never experienced. It was as if someone had just kicked her in her stomach and slapped her across her face. Erina clenched her fists as she watched the girl grab onto one of Soma's arms and swing it around as if Soma was hers.
"Soma Kun," Erina purposely purred as she approached the pair, her smile a complete contrast with the terrifying glare her violet orbs were conveying. Her mini skirt swayed with her every step as she walked towards the pair. Purposely, Erina curved her back forming a S shape emphasising her natural 'advantage' over the foreign girl. With some pressure, Erina grabbed onto Sophia's hands and quickly removed them from Soma's arms.
Erina's smile was sweet, almost sickeningly so, as she glanced towards Soma and then flicking her prideful eyes towards the 'charming' girl before her.
"So is it a yes Yukihira Kun?" asked Sophia chuckling at Erina's sudden intrusion. Her rosy lips were curled up into a smug smile as she threw flirty glances at the red headed boy.
A million curses went through Erina's mind as she struggled to keep her rising anger at bay. The feeling of pain and anger swirled in her mind as they surfaced like rising tides slowly drowning her in a sea of red. Her eyes grew dark as she glared at the girl in front of her, her heart pounded against her chest as if ready for battle. It has been a while since anyone had dared to challenge her head on. For god's sake, she was Erina Nakiri, the god's tongue, the princess of Totsuki, the daughter of the current headmaster, the heir to Nakiri family's overwhelming business and she was not about to be defeated by this girl.
"I – uh about that," Soma replied scratching his head nervously. He could feel the anger that radiated off his normally composed girlfriend; and it was beyond scary. His could already imagine the 'punishment' he would receive for the events today and his could feel the increasing effects of his cold sweat. He really hated his luck.
In a flash, Erina grabbed Soma by the collars of his school uniform before slamming her lips onto his, cutting off his unfinished reply. As if marking her territory, she slid her tongue into his mouth and battled for dominance against his appendage. She then purposely moaned into the kiss as she pressed her body against Soma's. Her hand grasped a handful of his hair as she further deepened the kiss. The kiss was electrifying and exciting. Not only was it their first 'public' display of affection, it also pleased Erina to hear the sharp gasp Sophia drew as she snogged her own boyfriend.
Shocked by Erina's sudden display of public affection, Soma glanced wide-eyed at his blonde girlfriend as she pressed her body against his. Soma knew her girlfriend's true intentions behind this kiss. Erina bit down on his lips lightly as if symbolising the notion that Soma will not be let off the hook so easily. By the time they finally parted, both were panting and heaving heavily barely recovering from one of the longest kiss they had ever shared. Sophia glared at Erina, her chocolate coloured eyes looked as dangerous as ever. She muttered a series of curses under her breath as her eyes flickered towards Soma's and Erina's swollen lips. Angrily, she turned towards the exit, her long beautiful mahogany coloured hair bouncing with her every angry strut.
"Explain," Erina glared as soon as Sophia left the building, her cheeks still red from their previously intense 'activity'.
"Erina…" Soma began carefully as his hands drew soothing circles on her lower back, "yeah let me explain."
Erina gave him an irritated glare and rolled her eyes as if signalling him to begin weaving his way out of this one.
"I was on my way here to see you," Soma started, his lips forming a smile as he touched her rosy pink cheeks cheekily, "because I wanted to walk back to the dorm with you and because I wanted to ask you something."
"Keep your hands to yourself Yukihira," Erina replied as she flicked her hair and crossed her arms across her chest, "I'm in no mood right now."
"But you just gave me a hella intense kiss," Soma retorted cheekily, earning a smack on his head. Lacking the ability to sense danger and unable to resist the temptation to kiss his girlfriend, Soma cheekily pecked Erina on her pink tinted cheek. "Then I bumped into Sophia," Soma continued as he rubbed the spot where he had just been hit again.
"Who is this Sophia," huffed Erina angrily, her mind subconsciously conjured an image of the Belgian girl who seemed to have perfect hair, skin and even beautiful eyes.
"She is just a girl in some of my cooking class," Soma replied laughing, "I've only worked with her a couple of times."
"Then why the hell was she standing so close to you!" Erina bellowed, her cheeks reddened at her sudden outburst, "did you look at her chest Yukihira!"
"NO! NO! God no," replied Soma nervously, "I don't know why she was acting so weird today. In class we generally worked fine together."
"Oh I see," laughed Erina dangerously, "so you are close with her and you have impeccable team work?"
"That's not what I said Erina!" Soma replied exasperatedly, he knew his girlfriend was at the height of her anger, "she really is just someone who I work with in class because she often comes up to me and asks me to be her partner."
"Then what did she mean by so is it a yes Yukihira kun," asked Erina mocking Sophia's voice with an absurdly high pitch.
"She asked me to accompany her to the Spring Festival Dance," Soma mumbled scratching his head as he watched his girlfriend's eyes darken at his reply.
"And…?" asked Erina dangerously, her eyes narrowed towards the red-headed boy as she glared into his honey coloured eyes.
"Well, if you had just let me replied" Soma chuckled, reminiscing the exciting and electrifying kiss they had just shared, "would've told her no; because I already have someone I wanted to ask."
"Well I – I didn't like the way she was touching you," Erina defended as she reviewed her bold and embarrassing actions just minutes ago.
"Am I off the hook now?" Soma asked, intertwining her hand with his own as he placed a strand of her hair behind her ears gently.
"Hmm," Erina hummed teasingly, "that depends on who that someone you intend to ask was."
"Well then…Erina Nakiri," Soma laughed as he got down on one knee earning a chuckle from Erina, "will you come to the spring dance with me?"
Erina reached down and planted a soft kiss on his lips.
"I'll take that as a yes then," Soma chuckled as he stood up before pecking Erina softly on her cheek.
At that moment everything was perfect. And although this moment did not meet the expectations of his imaginations, he could not conjure up a better moment than the one he had just experience. Because unlike Spring or cherry blossoms that disappear within a blink of an eye, Soma believed he would have eternity to replay moments after moments he would come to share with his Erina.
