"Stellar you should watch where you're going. There are still puddles on the streets; you could slip if you're not careful." I told Stellar as she was twirling and skipping happily along the streets." I smiled silently at her. She's so childish sometimes. Tonight is so beautiful I thought as I gazed up at the stars. The night breeze is a little cooler than usual because of the rain but it's not like I mind. I closed my eyes as I savored every moment of hearing Stellar laugh. I think she has a beautiful laugh. I opened my eyes just in time to see her slip on a puddle. I caught her before she fell down.
"Ah…gomen, oniichan I know you were thinking something and I just disturbed you." I chuckled at her.
"That's alright. I was thinking about you anyway." I admitted and saw her blush slightly. "I told you to be careful." I reminded her. I could tell from the look she was giving me that she was embarrassed. I tried to hide my blush. She just looks so kawaii when she does that.
"So oniichan are we almost there?" Stellar asked me. I nodded my head and told her to keep walking. We stopped walking when we finally reached a hill. It had stairs on it so people could climb it easily but even so it's tiring climbing it all the way up. I felt Stellar look at me and I looked back at her. "Are we really going to climb that?"
"Yeah."
"But won't we get tired if we climb that?"
"I can carry you on my back if you want." I offered her and she just shyly declined. I laughed silently.
It took us a while to reach the top but when we did Stellar gasped. I just stared at her surprised expression then to the view in front of us. From where we're standing you can see the whole city. It was night so the only things you could see where the lights from the buildings and houses. They shined brightly and for a moment they reminded me of how Stellar's eyes usually sparkled when she was happy.
I saw Stellar run up to near the railings so she could get a better view of the city. I just stayed in my place; right now I'm more interested in watching Stellar than gazing the city in front of us.
"Oniichan! Look, look! It's so pretty!" Stellar said pointing below while having a childish sparkle in her eyes. I walked towards her so I could look at the city with her. We stared at it for what seemed like hours. Neither of us said anything, not that I didn't like it or anything. We just enjoyed each other's company. I felt Stellar's head lean on my shoulder then she decided to break the silence. "Thanks for taking me here. Honto, it's beautiful here."
"Yeah, I come here to think sometimes." I admitted to her.
"Onnichan?" Her tone had a hint of hesitation in them but I didn't pay much attention to it.
"Hm?"
"What are you thinking right now?"
"Nothing, I guess. I'm just enjoying my time with you." I replied enjoying the scent of her hair as it invaded my nostrils.
"You're not thinking about Lacus?" I was caught off guard by that question. I didn't expect her to ask that.
"No, not really." She hasn't entered my mind since we came here. "Why do you ask?"
"Because I think Lacus likes you. This afternoon she just said you were cute." I just nodded my head. I really didn't know how to react. Shouldn't I be happy? But why do I act as if I don't care? I don't really get my feelings anymore. I feel so confused.
"Is that so?"
"You don't look so happy about it." I looked at Stellar when I felt she turned to look at me and when my eyes met hers I immediately got lost in them. "Oniichan?" Stellar's voice snapped me out of my trance.
"I don't want to talk about it right now." I just want to spend my time with Stellar for now. Thinking about my current feelings for Lacus is too confusing.
"Gomen, I didn't mean to bring that up." She apologized while turning her gaze away from me.
"It's alright." I said while cupping her chin to direct her gaze back to me. Somehow I didn't want Stellar to stop looking at me just yet. I found myself getting lost in her magenta eyes again and I briefly wondered what her lips would feel like. Before I could stop myself I swooped down and planted a gentle kiss on her lips. It was an innocent kiss but somehow when I pulled away it left me craving for more.
"O-oniichan?" The shock in Stellar's voice broke me out of my daze as I realized what I just did. My eyes went as wide as saucers. I noticed that Stellar's face was red. From anger or embarrassment I didn't know.
"Ah! S-sorry! I don't know what came over me!" I said as I felt my cheeks heat up. I never kissed a girl in the lips before and I never even once thought that I'd give my first real kiss to my sister. I tried to say more things but Stellar cut me off.
"It's okay oniichan. Just don't surprise me like that."
"You're not mad?" I asked nervously.
"No." I felt relieved but somehow I just had to make sure.
"Really?"
"Yes."
"That's a relief."
"Actually oniichan that was my first kiss."
"W-What!?" I managed to stutter out. I can't believe I just went and did that! I just took her first kiss! What kind of a brother am I? I bet Stellar was hoping for her first kiss to be special. I feel really bad for taking her first kiss so why is it that I can't stop smiling? Why did I even kiss her in the first place?
A/N: Yeah, it's short but now it seemed like a really good place to end this chapter.
