Train, way to camping trip on Maki's vacation house;

Love Live is held once again, the µ's decided to join up. Eli immediately asked the team to do a camping trip so that they could gain their focus. Nozomi and Eli sat to each other on the train. Nozomi seems to be really quiet right now, it worry Eli.

"Are you alright?" Eli asked, Nozomi turned her face to her and smiled sweetly.

"Of course, Ericchi…" she was then placing her hand above Eli's hand, then she gently stroke it. Eli quickly takes her hand off her.

"N-Nozomi…Don't do that here… they can see…" Eli whispered,

"Oh…right… sorry… I'm a little overacting." Nozomi replied shyly.

"You've been acting strange since after that night in my place? Did something happen?" Eli asked, Nozomi shook her head,

"Really? I only remember that you were asking about why I made you stay at my house…"

"I know you will only remember that far..Ericchi…." Nozomi replied sweetly.

"Nozomi… you really need to tell me why you are acting strange…." Eli said seriously,

"It's nothing Ericchi, I'm really happy and proud of you, so I want to be nice… besides, you still have two wishes left! So just tell me what you want from me, I'll do anything…" Nozomi replied sweetly.

"Huh? Alright then, the second wish is, tell me what happen that night…."

"You're sleeping next to me, then I'm poking you but you're still asleep…" Nozomi replied.

"That's it?"

"Yup…" Nozomi replied calmly, Eli seems to be unsatisfied.

"Well that was a waste of wish…" Eli said.

"I know, right… You have one wish left, so make sure you're using it properly…" Nozomi said. Eli sighed heavily.

"Now that you say it, I do really have to think about it…" Eli said.

"Why don't you ask me to do something— uhm… that you can't do alone…? Like… you know… advancing something…." Nozomi tried to make a hint of flirt,

"Hmm… Well, I do want to upgrade something…. But…." Eli wondered.

"What is it-what is it?" Nozomi staring at her sweetly,

"We still have to wait for graduation…" Eli continued, Nozomi pouted.

"You know you can just say what you wish, Ericchi! I'll be your genie!"

"Is that so? Then I'm not going to ask for the last wish forever…" Eli said.

"What?" Nozomi tilt her head.

"If I said my last wish, you'll disappear. I want you to stay with me forever…" Eli said, Nozomi blushed madly, she just really wants to kiss Eli's sweet lips right now but she knows she can't— they promised to not let it shown to the µ's.

"You can make that as your last wish, Silly Ericchi…." Nozomi replied shyly.

"Then that would be it. Stay with me forever, ok?" Eli said. Nozomi swear her cheek is flashing red right now. She really has an urge to kiss her to express that she loved her for that— but she can't.

"Silly Ericchi, flirts me at time like this…" Nozomi grumbled. Eli giggled softly.

"Just want to mess up with you, Nozomi…. But yes, I don't want anything else. You're all that I need…" Eli said— that would be another critical hit on Nozomi's heart. She doesn't know what else to say. She really-really wants to kiss her right now, but again— she can't.

"Ne, Ericchi, I'll be starting to help out at shrine again…." Nozomi said.

"Looking for Spiritual Power?" Eli asked,

"Yes, also….I really needs to pray more often… There is something that I really want…" Nozomi said.

"Is it ok if I ask what you want?" Eli asked.

"You could— but I'm just going to say that you know what I'm going to wish…"

"What if I don't know?"

"You know…" Nozomi replied as she looks away. They remained quiet for a while, Eli looking at the window and see her transparent reflection along with Nozomi that is being very calm. Nozomi is always quiet and calm when she is around the µ's, or at least most of the time since she will still fooling around if she feel like it— even trolling the other member. It just that Eli feels strange if Nozomi is quiet when there's only two of them. She knows Umi and Kotori are probably behind them, but they are pretty busy with their own conversation.

"Nozomi…." Eli called her gently,

"Yes, Ericchi?" Nozomi replied lovingly.

"I was just wondering— that time of the night, did you…. sleep with towel?" Eli asked.

"I took it off after you mumbled something— can't resist to feels your touch all over my body…" Nozomi replied, Eli didn't make a responds, she looks like she is thinking of something— or trying to remember something.

"Yes, I was naked, Ericchi. I like sleeping naked if I'm next to you…" Nozomi said boldly.

"Wh-what?" Eli gets panic; she tried to peek to the back— lucky Kotori still talking with Umi about her pillow that she brings everywhere.

"Nozomi! That's dangerous!" Eli said.

"Hmm? Which one is dangerous? The topic or sleeping naked?"

"Both! What if Arisa came into our room last night, I can't possibly explain why you are naked."

"Because I want to be naked…"

"Nozomi!" Eli protested, Nozomi giggled,

"Either way Ericchi, don't sweat it. Play it cool. She will have to learn about Onsen too anyway!"

"That's still a whole different thing!" Eli said, Nozomi giggled again,

"Anyway, I believe Maki will have Onsen at her vacation house, prepare to see everyone naked!" Nozomi said cheerfully.

"You're not planning to do anything ridiculous there, right?"

"Hmm… now that you mention it— maybe I'll punish everyone for having smaller breast than me!"

"Nozomi…."

"What?"

"I'll be angry if you do that…"

"Eh? You're going to punish me there? I'm naked too, you know…" Nozomi said teasingly.

"Oh? I haven't tells you about my newest punishment?" Eli replied, she seems to be confident.

"What is it? Is it related with touching me?" Nozomi still have the guts to tease.

"Hmm…yep. This…." Eli took out a few candy,

"Candy?"

"Caramel Candy…." Eli said. That— put Nozomi in a horror. She don't want her guess to be right,

"A-Are you…going to force me eating that…." Nozomi said,

"Will I?" Eli smiled mischievously.

"I-I get it, Ericchi, you don't need to do that…" Nozomi replied— looks scared.

"Ara? You're really scared of that? That was unexpected…" Eli said.

"Hmm… but I don't mind to be punished if it comes with some touch or kisses…" Nozomi said, Eli smirked,

"Well….I imagines it will have to come with touches since I will have to lock you…." Eli sighed, Nozomi remained quiet and start to imagine…

In the Onsen, Nozomi began to start her punishment on everyone….

'Mwe-hehe-he-he… Washi-washi suru yan!'

Nozomi put on her perverted face.

'Kyaaan! Nozomi-chan!' Kotori screamed in fear.

'D-don't do that!' Maki said as she tried to protect her breast.

'S-Somone! Help me!' Hanayo screamed as she gets cornered,

'He-he-He…' Nozomi approached them very carefully until suddenly— a tall figure with blonde hair caught her. She pushed her to the other corner— still naked, well, everyone is naked.

'Uwa! Eri-chan!' Said Honoka as she was surprised

'T-That looks really wrong! Eri!' Umi said,

'B-But look at the bright side! She is saving us…!' Niko said,

'Good luck Eri-chan -Nya!' Rin cheered.

A mischievous smile from Eli,

'I'm angry, you know….' Eli said gently as she locked Nozomi on the corner. Nozomi couldn't move, her legs were locked by Eli's legs, her wrist too gripped tightly. She tried to struggle but Eli has a stronger force than her— then with a caramel candy on her mouth, she kissed Nozomi. One deep kiss and the way her tongue wouldn't stop forcing Nozomi to taste the tormenting sweetness….

"What are you imagining…Nozomi…." Eli sighed, snapped Nozomi out from her imagination. She turned around to see Eli,

"Please, punish me…." Nozomi said in serious tone, her nose bleeding.

"N-Nozomi! Your nose!" Eli quickly grabs a tissue and tending it. Nozomi remained quiet and let Eli take care of her nose bleed.

"I will submit myself, Ericchi, to be punished by you…." Nozomi said before she snorted.

"Stop imagining that, silly. Now you made me lose my will to punish you that way…." Eli sighed.

"Please don't… I will be more than happy to be punished…." Nozomi said— her nose already stops bleeding.

"I have no idea what you're imagining Nozomi, I hope it's not about whip or leather belt things…"

"Whip and leather belt…..?" Nozomi said before she started to imagine.

A sound of whip, slashing on the ground, Eli wearing a tight leather stocking and black underwear standing upon her, tied with belts and naked….

"Please do it Ericchi!" Nozomi said excitedly,

"H-Hey….." Eli smirked, Nozomi's nose bleeding again.

"Your nose!" Eli tend it again, Nozomi pouted as she did.

"But that's impossible, Ericchi is too kind…." Nozomi said before she snorted.

"What on earth you're imagining…." Eli sighed.

"Ericchi's dominance on me!" Nozomi said again,

"Come on now, we need to focus on this practice. This is our last chance to enter love live…." Eli said— that tick something on Nozomi's mind.

"Ah…right…." Nozomi said, she is back to her calmness— a little sad though.

"But I'm glad you're really fine. I love you just the way you are…" Eli said gently. Nozomi blushed again, she sighed,

"Ericchi… you're such a charm…" Nozomi said as she looks away.

"I am?" Eli said teasingly. Nozomi didn't make a respond— she is trying her best to not kiss her. Eli smiled sweetly as she took Nozomi's hand— then pressing her lips upon it. Nozomi swear she could feel her body shivers from the excitement. She turned to see Eli and her face is blushing madly as she did.

"That should cover the kiss…" Eli said with a gentle smile.

Stupid, it made me want to kiss you more…

Nozomi said on her mind— a little annoyed but she is happy.

"Just hold it, alright? Let's really focus on practice."


Maki's vacation house backyard, afternoon;

After they're arrived, they set their belonging inside and split up. Maki is on her piano, Kotori is at her personal room next to Umi's room, while Eli is on the duty to train the others on flexibility. The practice began with stretching.

"Alright everyone, keep your balance for forty eight seconds!" Eli shouted, Honoka, Rin, Niko, Hanayo, and Nozomi began to raise their left leg up to their belly.

"Ready? Go!" Eli said as she did the same. It's how the daily practice done—no one is not capable to do this,

"One-Two-Three-Four! One-Two-Three-Four!" Eli counted,

"Hanayo, straight your body up!" Eli said as she noticed Hanayo is a little bending down. The counting keep moving on.

"Alright, Good Job! Change!" Eli commanded, they put their left down and raise the right one.

"Another forty eight seconds! One-Two-Three-Four!" Eli counted again.

The forty eight seconds passed,

"Alright, great job!" Eli gave ten seconds delay for them.

"Now spread your feet and pulls your hand forward, bent your body too!" Eli shouted, they did as what she asks.

"Another forty eight seconds! One-Two-three-four!" Eli now began to wander to check on their position.

"Honoka, lower your body!" Eli pushed her down.

"U-wa-wau…" Honoka surprised by the push.

"Niko, stretch your hand further! You can do it…" Eli said as she walks through Niko. Niko tried her best to do it.

"Good! One-Two-three-four!" Eli continued to count again, she carefully approach Nozomi.

"Nozomi, you're bending too low!" Eli said— spanking her ass. That surprise Nozomi— she knows that's only Eli's way to use a chance, but she decide to just raise her body a little anyway.

Naughty-naughty Ericchi…

"T-That sounded hurt….Nya…" Rin whispered as Eli passed through Rin.

"I'm not going to be easy on anyone, ok? Keep on going! A little more! One-Two-Three-Four!" Eli shouted.

The practice keeps moving on, they switched into many motion for their stretching. Until finally,

"Good Job, everyone! Five minutes break!" Eli shouted. Everyone except Eli falls to the ground and lay down. They let out a heavy sigh.

"That was strict as ever…" Honoka said.

"Hmm… maybe it just me; but Honoka and Hanayo seems to get more difficulty in some motion…" Eli said.

"Maybe that because it's been a while for them to not practice…" Niko said. Everyone remained quiet after— enjoying the wind breeze. Eli smiled and she went to get her drink.

Rin yawned,

"This is great!" She said.

"Just feel the immense Spiritual Power of the mountain!" Nozomi said. Hanayo sat up,

"It makes you feel sleepy…" she said sweetly. Just for a few second after, no one respond.

"They fell asleep already?!" she said in surprise as she saw Honoka, Nozomi, and Rin lay down peacefully, Eli approached them.

"H-Hey! We are only taking five minutes break!" Eli commented. Niko sighed and rubbing her towel on her hair,

"I know…" she said.

Eli turned around again,

"Oh well, I'll give you ten more minutes…" she said as she sat next to the sleeping Honoka.

"But it's true; the mountain air is so fresh… I may not be able to resist it either…" Hanayo said sweetly.

"I agree. Just don't let your guard down, ok? We are still practicing…" Eli replied gently.

"Ah…" Honoka sat up.

"What is it, Honoka?" Eli asked,

"I feel like eating something warm…" she said. Eli sighed.

"Hmmm… warm rice in this kind of air… sounds very good!" Hanayo said,

"Or… toast with melting strawberry jam…" Honoka said.

"There, we can always save that for later…" Eli said.

"Hmmm Toast filled with melting dark chocolate, then a cup of cocoa milk, those sounds really good…" Nozomi said.

"N-Nozomi!" Eli yelled.

"Just imagine the bitter-sweet sensation melting in your mouth— it totally fits the fresh and cold air…." Nozomi totally ignored her complain.

"Urkh! We can save that for later!" Eli said, but she really wants that if they have.

"Warm cocoa milk… it's actually sounds good…" Honoka said.

"Yup, I want that too if we have any…" Hanayo said.

"A-Anyway! Let's get back to practice!" Eli tried to change the topic, she stood up and realized— two of them are missing.

"Eh? Where's Niko and Rin?" Eli asked.

"I heard them running down the hill…" Nozomi said very calmly.

"Uh…? What?" Eli tilts her head in confusion. A few seconds of quietness,

"Now, they scream: Someone, please help!" Nozomi said calmly. Everyone wondered what that would be….

"Splash….." Nozomi said again.

"Huh?" Honoka and Hanayo turn their sight to Nozomi— confusedly too.

"They fell to the water…" Nozomi said, calmly. Everyone getting more confused.

Eli sighed.

"Let's just save them…"


Afternoon, Forest to the mountain;

After they saved Rin and Niko and found out about Maki, Kotori, and Umi's trouble, Eli suggested to split the team into three using lottery with colored chopsticks. Nozomi got into Umi's team with Rin. Part of her glad that she doesn't have to hold her desire to be pampered since that would mean she didn't get to spend a night with Eli, but part of her also sad because of the same reason.

Whatever feeling she have— she just know that it really helps her to focus more if she isn't with Eli.

"So… where are we going? Why are we not setting a camp yet?" Rin asked.

"We need an inspiration…. We need a place with inspiration!" Umi said

"Then, where is that, nya?" Rin asked again.

"A high place— a place to climb!" Umi said seriously.

"Mountain?" Rin asked,

"Exactly…. The mountain and we are going to aim for the peak!" Umi said with full of spirit.

"I like that— sounds fun!" Nozomi said.

"Wh-what?! Rin don't want to go to the mountain!" Rin protested.

"You have to!" Umi said as she grab Rin's wrist.

"You need more courage!" Nozomi said as she pushed Rin.

"Nyaaa! Rin don't want to go to the mountain!" Rin struggled, but the two keep dragging and pushing her forward.


Dusk— Forest near Maki's vacation house;

They did climb to the mountain— but they aren't able to reach the peak. Nozomi told them to give up and climb back down to set a camp.

"Rin so tired nya….." Rin said in relieve after she is done with the campfire, she thought she would really have to climb again later. Umi remained quiet as she help Nozomi with setting the tent— she is still thinking about why Nozomi knows a lot about mountain, she was about to ask but scared to offend her.

"Ok, that set… I'm going to find those edible plants now…" Nozomi said after she is done with the tent.

"I'll accompany you…" Umi said,

"Nope, you can focus on your lyric…" Nozomi said,

"Then Rin can do it nya!" Rin said happily.

"No need, we are here to support Umi, so just stay here and help her if she needs anything, alright?"Nozomi said as she left them while taking a wooden tray that she brought from the mansion.

"I'm sure she will be alright… but still, it's a real mystery…." Umi said,

"I know right? It's like she is very used to the mountain…" Rin replied.

Nozomi wandered off to the forest— it's true that her intention was to find some edible plants, though she still couldn't get one thing off her mind. She wonders about how everyone doing.

She began to search for their camps. The first one that she found is the one near a river. She still doesn't know whose camp that is, but either way, she know she shouldn't show herself or she will distract them.

She could see Honoka yawned and heading in to her tent, but she couldn't see anyone else. She waited for a bit until finally she decided to leave them.

Nozomi looked around the forest; she began with taking a few herbs and small edible berries, then place it on her tray.

Everyone is working so hard…

She thought as she examined the berry bushes.

I hope they aren't working too hard though….

She began to picks the best berries.

But I can see that they really know their limit…

She walks away to another bush.

Just like Umi who agreed to climb down…

She giggled to herself,

I imagine if that wasn't Umi but her, Rin would totally pass out or at least crying herself out until morning…

She continued to her search.

Maybe I should check her team…

She turned around to look at the mansion's roof behind the trees.

Or maybe not, she will always do fine on her own.

She turned back again to the bushes, she was about to take another berry,

Ah well, I'll just return now. Umi might—

Before she could finish her thought, someone is stealing her berry. Nozomi turned her sight to that someone— it's expected, who else if it's not the one she always thinking of?

"You keep smiling and giggling to yourself…" Eli said.

"Ericchi, you should just say something if you are around!" Nozomi said,

"I'm stalking you, I know you will use this chance to look for me…" Eli replied.

"No one is looking for you, silly. I'm really into getting edible plants…"

"Ah, really? Then bye-bye…" Eli turned around— about to leave, Nozomi quickly grab her hand.

"You can't just leave after stealing my berry…" Nozomi said.

"Oh? Then I'll just trade you with some mushrooms…" Eli replied as she took out some mushroom from her bag and places it on Nozomi's tray.

"That's not enough…" Nozomi replied,

"Hm? What else are you expecting…?" Eli asked teasingly— she is totally playing dumb.

"Hnnn…Ericchi is playing dumb— so obvious…" Nozomi said,

"I really don't know what you want if you're not asking me…" Eli replied with a teasing smile, Nozomi smiled back at her sweetly. They stare into each other eyes for a little longer,

"Ah, Hanayo is here…" Eli said as she saw Hanayo carrying a wooden tray too.

"Hanayo!" Eli called, Hanayo turned to them.

"Eli-chan! Nozomi-chan!" she called back and approach them.

"What are you collecting?" Eli asked,

"Flowers, I want to give Kotori an idea so I'm collecting them…" Hanayo said.

"Wow, that's nice of you Hanayo-chan…" Nozomi said.

"What about your dinner?" Eli asked,

"Uhm… I already brought some Onigiri…." Hanayo said.

"Ah— then it's no problem. Your team is lucky to have you…" Eli said, Hanayo replied with a sweet giggles and a little hint of blush on her cheek.

"Your team is lucky too, Ericchi— Nikochi brought some sweet potatoes with her today…" Nozomi said.

"She did?" Eli replied,

"Yup, she did, I took a peek on her bag today…" Nozomi said again.

"Ah, then I'll make sure she shares that with everyone…" Eli said,

"Uhn… Nozomi-chan….? Why are you peeking on her bag and when?" Hanayo asked,

"Hmm….. That would be my little secret…" Nozomi replied teasingly.

"Nozomi… you're not doing anything to anyone's bag…right?" Eli said— her tone is intimidating.

"Hm? I'm just checking. Nothing else…" Nozomi replied playfully.

"That sounded more suspicious, Nozomi-chan!" Hanayo said.

"Nozomi!" Eli put her hands on her hips. Nozomi looked around, then she pointed to the sky behind Hanayo.

"Ah-Look! A rice bowl!" Nozomi yelled, Hanayo quickly turned around— then with high speed too, Nozomi pressed her lips to Eli's lips— then ran away as Eli was still in shock. How could Nozomi boldly kiss her in front of someone— well not really since Hanayo didn't see that either.

"Nozomi-chan is lying!" Hanayo turned back— Nozomi is already gone. Eli sighed,

"I'll better check my bag after this…"


Train, Dusk;

The sky still dark, a day has passed and they are all fixed with their newest song. Now they are on the way back to home. Eli and Nozomi once again sat next to each other. The other µ's members are fast asleep since they were getting overworked this morning.

"Nozomi…." Eli whispered,

"Yes Ericchi?" Nozomi replied lovingly,

"Thanks for the chocolate chips that you put on my bag. You don't have to spoil me with that, you know…."

"How else I can spoil my dearest Ericchi? You're hardly wants anything for yourself…" Nozomi whispered as she lays her head on Eli's shoulder.

"Ericchi always pampering me every day— I can't let the love works one way like that…" Nozomi said,

"You're always looking after me every day— I can't ignore that too…" Eli said,

"Then we are actually even?" Nozomi smiled at her.

"No, I still need to give you a lot more…" Eli replied with a gentle smile, Nozomi responded with a sweet smile and she placed her hand above Eli's lap— stroking it gently.

"Are you going straight back home after this?"

"I have to— I left Arisa alone…" Eli said.

"Then, can I stay at your place…?" Nozomi said suggestively. Eli just gave her a silent nod.


Eli's apartment, Night Time;

"I'm home— Arisa…" Eli shouted. Arisa ran down from the stairs and happily jumped to Eli.

"Onee-san!" she yelled.

"Sorry, are you lonely?" Eli asked,

"Nope, Yukiho came to visit me today! She is really funny!" Arisa said,

"Yukiho…? Honoka's sister?" Eli asked,

"Yup! She just came back home an hour ago, said that she have to greet Honoka-nee-san too!"

"Ah…" Eli nodded.

"Oh! Nozomi-nee-san!" Arisa greeted her.

"You already know how to use that word… good job, Arisa-chan…" Nozomi said.

"He-he, Yukiho told me!"

"Anyway, Ericchi, you can go on prepare bath first— I want to have a little private talk with Arisa-chan…" Nozomi said.

"Private talk with Arisa? What are you two up to…." Eli said intimidatingly.

"Onee-san! Just go prepare bath! This is none of your business!" Arisa yelled, Eli smirked wryly,

"Fine, but don't get into trouble, ok?" Eli said as she left the two.


Arisa's room, Night Time;

Arisa is shuffling her tarot cards, Nozomi waited her patiently. After Arisa handed her the tarot card, Nozomi took out one card, it show upward Hierophant.

"Ah… Upward Hierophant, hmm… does Arisa-chan want to try something new?" Nozomi asked.

"Uhm…yes…." Arisa replied shyly.

"I'm sorry, Arisa-chan. My card says that you will still have to stick with tradition. Just do what Arisa-chan think is right— not because it's new and sounds exciting…"

"Oh… Ok…" Arisa replied sadly.

"But Arisa-chan… you have to know this is all just prediction. Arisa-chan doesn't have to do what it say, but it just would be nice to think of it…" Nozomi replied,

"Alrighty…" Arisa replied happily.

"Anything else you want to ask?" Nozomi asked,

"Hmm… what about Onee-san's birthday? Does Nozomi-nee-san already know?" Arisa asked,

"Ericchi said she doesn't want anything…" Nozomi replied,

"Ah— that's expected…." Arisa sighed.

"But I have an Idea… Does Arisa want to know?" Nozomi asked.

"I do!"


Eli's bathroom, Night time;

Eli just finished preparing her bath— she took off her clothes and heading to her prepared bathtub. Suddenly, the door opened, Nozomi came in and closed the door. She already took off her clothes and left with only a piece of towel.

"Ericchi!" Nozomi called cutely. Eli turned her sight to her,

"Nozomi… you want to take bath together?" Eli asked,

"Yup! I want to take bath with Ericchi!" Nozomi said as she gets closer to her, put her towel away and then steps in to the bathtub. Eli didn't reject— she lets her in and even let her to lays on top of her. Nozomi hugged her sweetly.

"Hmm... if you did that Nozomi, I'm sure this will take longer than it supposed to…" Eli said teasingly.

"That's the plan, Ericchi…" Nozomi giggled. Eli smiled to her,

"So, does Ericchi have any story for me?" Nozomi asked.

"Hmm…." Eli began to think.

"A folklore perhaps?" Nozomi asked,

"I do, but—…."

"Tell me! Tell me!" Nozomi cuts in, she looks very excited,

"Well then, have you ever heard of Snowmaiden?"

"Snowmaiden?"

"Yes, there's a lot of version of it, but I can tell you the short one…" Eli replied. Nozomi clings tighter to her,

"Please tell me, I want to hear it…" Nozomi said lovingly.

"Very well then…" Eli takes a deep breath. Nozomi gave all of her attention to her,

"There was once a daughter of Fairy Spring and Father Frost, this daughter was the most beautiful maiden ever known…" Eli started,

"Does she have white pale skin, Azure eyes, and long blonde hair?" Nozomi asked,

"You know the story?" Eli asked,

"No— I'm just describing the word of 'most beautiful maiden ever known'…" Nozomi smiled sweetly. Eli chuckled,

"Alright, she does look like that…" Eli replied.

"Hm-hm! I got the image!" Nozomi said as she nodded cheerfully.

"She was named, Snowmaiden…" Eli said,

"Uhh! Can we just name her Elichika?" Nozomi asked, Eli laughed.

"If that fits your imagination better, sure…"

"Alright, then I'll name her Ericchi!" Nozomi said, Eli giggled before she continued,

"Fairy spring had to hide her daughter from the Sun God, whose rays could destroy the beautiful girl. That's why, for a very long time, the Snowmaiden lived deep within the woods."

"She is Ericchi! Ericchi! Not Snowmaiden!" Nozomi pouted. Eli laughed again,

"Sorry-sorry, alright, Ericchi lived deep within the woods." Eli said, Nozomi smiled again,

"But it was very lonely there, so she decides to take a long walk through the woods, and at that very same day too, she could hear a beautiful sound..."

"Did she hear her own voice?" Nozomi asked, Eli chuckled again,

"Of course not, it's the sound of flute being played…"

"Oh– hmmm… alright!" Nozomi nodded,

"At first it was far away, Ericchi decided to walk closer and closer to its source. She followed it for a very long time, all the way to the edge of the forest. Then she was awestruck to see one young farm boy—…"

"Ahhh! No! Make it a farm girl! Her name must be Toujou Nozomi!" Nozomi cuts in before Eli could finish.

"Alright, then she was awestruck to see one beautiful farm girl, playing her flute. Her name is Toujou Nozomi. Ericchi listened and watched her for a long time until she become enchanted to her." Eli continued. Nozomi smiled sweetly to hear it,

"Days by days, Ericchi always returned to hear Nozomi playing her flute. Knowing that she has fallen in love, she decided to talk with her mother…"

"You talked with your mother?! Did she agreed? Are we getting married?" Nozomi said excitedly,

"It's part of the story, Nozomi….." Eli giggled,

"Right… please continue…" Nozomi replied,

"…and her mother said, if you want to feel a real love, you must leave the protection of the forest and walk to the open field..." Eli said.

"But… isn't that mean to face the Sun God?" Nozomi asked,

"Yes— and she did what her mother tell her. Once she was there, she decided to steps into the open field. Her beauty illuminated to its fullest, yet the Sun God was too strong. So she was melted before Nozomi's eyes and disappears into thin air…" Eli said.

"Ahhh! I'm angry!" Nozomi said as she stood up.

"Angry?" Eli giggled,

"Yes, Angry! Why Nozomi didn't just go into the deep forest! They would've lived happily ever after!" Nozomi said.

"Well, the one in the story didn't do that— the real one did though…" Eli said, Nozomi blushed,

"One more question, why her mother told her to go out? She should've known that it will kill her?" Nozomi asked. Eli smiled gently; she pulls Nozomi back down to her embrace, now with Nozomi's back on her chest.

She placed her chin on Nozomi's shoulder and kissed her neck lovingly.

"When we are falling in love— we have to know our own risk. Her mother wants her to be happy, so she told her what she could do. It may be not a smart move— of course the Snowmaiden could've called him instead of going after him, though, again, we could have come up with the idea by our own. We have to not forget who we are and where we come from…" Eli said. Nozomi snuggled to her,

"Does that mean, when Ericchi fall in love with me— Ericchi know the risk?" Nozomi asked,

"Our love may not be what people see as true love, it's a sin. It may be bitter, but it's sweet. I knew that…" Eli replied,

"Does it hurt for you to fall in love with me?" Nozomi asked again,

"It was, at first. I don't know if you are swinging that way. I'm falling for you— you are, beautiful, gentle, mysterious, and troublesome at the same time. I know you have a heart of gold, you always took care of me, but to see the fact that you're so kind to everyone around you— it worried me…" Eli said before she once again kissed Nozomi's neck.

"Is it because, you are worried if I'm just basically kind to everyone?" Nozomi asked, Eli nodded weakly,

"You know what, Ericchi. I did it for you— so that you could achieve a fame of your own. You wanted to save the school; you need to build your reputation. If I wasn't nice to everyone, what would they say about us? A pair of cruel human being?" Nozomi replied,

"More like a pair of angry swans who gets into constant bickering with anything…" Eli said, Nozomi laughed,

"Ericchi, anything I've done so far, the µ's, and everything else, I did it for you. Because I really love you, ever since I see you for the first time, I really want you so bad until it may be called as an obsession…" Nozomi said.

"I can see it— even if I was so cold and awkward, you keep yourself on my side. Then you caused trouble for me, I'm not even happy with that— but you made it fun. You colored my life, Nozomi…"

Eli said as she tightens her embrace and kissed Nozomi neck again.

"Ericchi, don't be such a sweet now. It's hard to resist, you know…" Nozomi replied, her face blush redder.

"Said the sweetest girl tonight…" Eli replied gently. They fell into silence, enjoying the warm embrace and their bare skin which touched against each other. Eli kissed Nozomi on her jawline and whispered,

"Do you want to do it tonight?"

"What about Arisa?" Nozomi asked,

"Hmm… right, I guess we have to spend a few hours with her first?"


Arisa's room, Night time;

Eli and Nozomi already dressed on their pajamas, they spend a few hours to help Arisa with her study and playing cards after,

"Hmmmmm…." Arisa staring at her sister intensely, Eli didn't make any expression change. There are only two cards left on Eli's hand, Arisa is having a really hard time to choose it.

"This!" Arisa took the left card.

"Ahhh! No!" Arisa took the Joker. She began to shuffle her two cards again. It's Eli's turn to pick. Eli was about to take the left card, Arisa made a hint of smile.

"Here…" Eli picks one card. She got the right card and makes a pair.

"Ahhnn! Arisa lost again. It's so hard to win against Onee-san and Nozomi-nee-san…" she pouted.

"You need to keep your expression, Arisa. It's very easy to read you if you keep changing your expression…" Eli said,

"Nozomi-nee-san is also changing her expression…" Arisa said, still pouting.

"But she lied…" Eli replied.

"She is not always lying, that's what made her difficult to be guessed…" Arisa said again. Eli and Nozomi giggled,

"That's what you should learn Arisa. Either you keep your expression or make lies like Nozomi…" Eli said.

"I tried to do it like Nozomi-Onee-san, but Nozomi-nee-san guessed me all the time…" Arisa said,

"Your smile is different when lying. It's easy to tell…" Nozomi replied.

"Hmmmm… let's play something else! Or read me a bedtime story!" Arisa said,

"What do you want to read?" Eli asked,

"Lebedinoye Ozero.." Arisa said.

"Rebediwhatwhatwhat?" Nozomi tried to hear it,

"Lebedinoye Ozero…." Eli said.

"Rapebindinyojero?" Nozomi tried to spell it again. Arisa giggled,

"Lebedinoye Ozero…." Arisa said clearly.

"Lebidinyoomjero?" Nozomi tried again.

"Lebedinoye Ozero…" Eli said in slower pace.

"Lebedinoye Ozero!" Nozomi repeated.

"Harasho!" Eli and Arisa said to her. Nozomi smiled sweetly.

"It's Swan Lake…" Eli said.

"You could've just said that, Ericchi!" Nozomi pouted,

"Eh? But that's the title in the book!" Eli replied,

"It's Russian?" Nozomi asked,

"Yes… Nozomi-nee-san never heard Onee-san talking in Russian?" Arisa asked, Nozomi shook her head,

"I only know, Harasho!" Nozomi replied,

"It's actually written as Khorosho!" Arisa said.

"Hmm, I can translate this if you want…" Eli said,

"No-no! Please read in Russian, I won't understand a single word but listening to you speaking in Russian would be nice!" Nozomi said. Arisa and Eli giggled.

"Alright then, you already know the story anyway…" Eli said as she took the book that Arisa wants. Arisa lay down on her bed and getting ready to hear the story.

"Odnazhdy…." Eli started,

Just as what she expected, Nozomi didn't understand a single word. Though it was all worth it, she feels like she is already in another country. The way she speaks, the way she spells every word, it feels so different than what she heard every day. What best is: the way Eli tell story is flawless, she really put her emotion to it.

She wondered; how those tongues made it? She has a feeling that she would bit her own tongue if she speaks like how Eli do, though Eli have no problem talking in her native language. Such a wonderful person— she is truly one with perfection. Even though Nozomi knows where she is lack of, she also knows that those just made her looks more charming than ever.

She kept trying to listen to them as she watched Arisa slowly closing her eyes. Even when it's all closed, Eli keeps on going with the story. Nozomi wonders why, she guessed that Eli just want to complete it, then as Eli finished with the story, she tuck her in, kiss Arisa's forehead and said,

"Spokoynoy nochi, Arisa…" (Good night, Arisa)

Eli turned to Nozomi. Nozomi staring into her— Nozomi knows she is just getting charmed by Eli's voice as she read story for her sister. She couldn't move. Eli smiled gently to her,

"Shall we dance?" Eli offered her hand...


Eli's Bedroom, Night Time;

No one knows how much time they've spend for kissing and unconsciously stripping each other, but it doesn't matter right now. They know they have to go school tomorrow— and also practice, but a night of fun wouldn't hurt. They got lesser homework and weekly test because their graduation exam will coming up in a few more months.

The real fun began with the violet haired girl desperately crawling to the bed as the blonde haired girl aggressively clings into her, one of her hand grabbing her breast, the other one locking on her waist while twitching the core of her lover. Her lips kissing her neck in hunger— and while she did that, her lover couldn't even have a chance to make a move except crawling to the bed. She moaned softly— need to make sure she is not making too much noise or Arisa will be awake.

The night was so quiet; all she could hear was Eli's lustful breath on her ears and herself moaning softly. In all honesty, she just didn't expect her lover to be so aggressive tonight. She thought it would be just one shy play like their first time. Perhaps, she built too much confident in her— but she likes it that way anyway.

She could feel her muscles tightening as the blood rushing all over her body. The sweats made it much more slippery than it was when they kissed. She didn't know this level of aggressiveness existed in Eli— her cute Ericchi that she love to tease every day.

Nozomi tried to find something to grip as her body moves out of her control. She only could find the pillow which she immediately grabs and squeezes it. She could feel her core being twitched again and again. She loves it— she wants to scream but she knows she shouldn't. She tried her best to not to and even covering her own mouth.

As she was being released off the tight grips, she took the chance to lays down on the bed. As she turned her sight up and found her lover smiling mischievously as if she gained one new achievement over her. Nozomi replied with an inviting stare and a lustful lick on her own lips, she was then spreading her legs open— offering her core to be dominated more which was accepted immediately.

A surprise sensation on her core— even if she used to feel that before, it's still feels like its new to be licked on the core. She could feel her tongue flicking more aggressively and even absorbing her in— which made her back suddenly arched greatly and letting out a loud moan which luckily managed to be muffled by her own hand.

The motion goes on; she couldn't even have a control to herself. Her body keeps making its own move as Eli marking her on her core. She could feel her fingers began to take a part of the action— it's one of her favorite sensation—painful yet wonderful. The feeling when her elastic hollow being stretched by two fingers which slowly penetrating deep into it, the feeling when it slide and making a noise that made her feel so aroused, then the feeling when her tongue adding more dampness to her core, she loved all of it.

"Ahn— Ericchi! This feels so good!" Nozomi said excitedly as she gripped on the bed. She didn't know how long she will last right now— but she already could feel something is going out. Eli remained quiet and doing her job.

Her fingers slid faster and faster as the liquid made more noises— a hidden pleasure for both ears.

"Ericchi! Ericchi!" she called her in a sultry voice— which somehow raised Eli's aggressiveness.

"Ericchi! I'm going to—…." Nozomi grip's tighter, her body arched and something is totally coming out. Eli didn't release her, instead, she made sure it goes to her mouth.

"Ahh…sorry…. Too late…." Nozomi said between her breathes. Eli finally let her hips go and crawled up to her. She kissed her after— one deep kiss.

Sour….

Nozomi thought as she tasted her kiss.

She made me eat my own!

Nozomi quickly pushed her, but she was no match against her— she has been weakened by their act. Eli keep insisted her kiss into her while Nozomi tried her best to be released. She eventually submits herself as she ran out stamina to try.

A few minutes passed, Eli finally let her go. Both breathed heavily— exhausted.

"Ericchi! You're bad-bad-bad! You made me eat that!" Nozomi pouted.

"I ate that too you know… you shouldn't be disgusted now." Eli replied,

"But at least give me yours!" Nozomi protested,

"Make your own initiative; I did all this without plan— like what you want me to…" Eli replied again. Nozomi pouted before she quickly goes down on Eli. Eli let her do whatever she want to, even lifting her leg and putting her mouth to hers.

Nozomi began to lick to try out. Then she stopped to look how Ericchi looks like.

"What?" Eli smiled teasingly,

"It's still sour…" she said.

"Of course! Silly!"

"But I like it down here, I can smell Ericchi!" Nozomi said before she continued.

A few first time, she is still hesitated— she don't know if she did it as good as Eli or not, but she tried anyway. She couldn't hear Eli moan like her— so she tried to peek how she looks when she licked her. Eli remained calm and watching her doing it. She only gave a teasing smile,

So next, Nozomi tried to insert one of her finger to her— once again, peek and nothing new. She began to slides it slowly, then, continued with adding the second finger which finally made a reaction. Though it doesn't last long, Eli is back to calm as the two fingers slid in and out slowly.

Either way, Nozomi tried to keep going. She tried to do what Eli did to her. It's very vague as she doesn't really know how she did it or how she knows how to do it. She did say it's from the internet; perhaps Nozomi should browse those on her own later. What important right now is— she is really enjoying the taste and the smell for some reason so she just do what she want to do.

When she could finally feel Eli's body make a reaction, Nozomi tried to be more aggressive— but just as the time when she open her mouth, something sprayed to her mouth— must be the same thing that came out from herself a while ago. She was so surprised, then looking up to Eli. Eli is shutting her own mouth and giving a playful smile to her.

"Ericchi! You did that without warning! What if I choked to it?"

"That's the idea…" Eli replied teasingly.

"Hnnn! Ericchi is so mean!" Nozomi pouted. Eli giggled.

"Come on up now, let me give you a few more kisses before we call this a day…" Eli said. Nozomi still pouted, yet she agreed to it anyway.

They kissed for a while before they finally rested peacefully.


Early morning, Eli's bedroom;

Eli woke up from her rest and she found out that her lover has gone from her side. She decided to get up and wear her pajamas back before heading out to get her bath.

She hoped that she would find Nozomi in the bathroom, yet she isn't there. So she just decided to go take a quick bath this morning with her shower. After she finished, she prepared herself to go to school, checking her books, assignment, and tools— then wearing her uniform neatly.

She headed to the kitchen, once again hoping to find Nozomi there. But all she could find is Arisa eating her breakfast. She also see a set of meal prepared on the table.

"Ah! Morning, Onee-san!" she greeted.

"Where's Nozomi?" Eli asked,

"She is gone an hour ago. She said she went to help out at shrine…" Arisa said,

"Hmm…why she didn't wake me up… We could've gone there together…" Eli said sadly, Arisa giggled,

"Onee-san is too over-protective as always…"

"Huh? Did she say that?" Eli asked,

"Yup! She also said Onee-san is thinking too much!" Arisa replied playfully. Eli sighed shyly,

"Ah well, I'll just go eat and head there after accompanying you to school…" Eli said.

"No need, I have a few friends to go with…" Arisa said,

"Oh? So you already made a lot of friends? Are they coming soon?" Eli asked,

"No, we are going to meet up at the cross-road to our school." Arisa replied,

"Then I'll accompany you there…" Eli said as she started to eat.

"Onee-san don't have to do that much! I'm fine by my own…" Arisa pouted.

"Nope…" Eli replied.

"Ah. Nozomi-nee-san also said this!" Arisa took out her mp4 player and showed a video of Nozomi, already in her Shrine Maiden dress. She put her hand on her waist, pouted and said:

"Ericchi is so stubborn! Let Arisa-chan go on her own, ok!?"

Eli sighed,

"When did you two teaming up against me…."

Arisa giggled happily.
