Just some dumb shit I came up with yesterday.
Chapter 6: Harumi Has a Plan
Yuzu held a strand of her hair between her lips as she thought intensely, pencil tapping on the edge of her notebook.
Harumi watched her friend just as intently, trying to figure out what was going on with the girl this time. Despite the fact that they were both delinquents of sorts, Yuzu seemed to have infinitely more drama compared to herself.
Then again, she wasn't the one dating her step sister.
"What are you doing?" she asked at last, leaning across the desk and trying to lower Yuzu's notebook, hoping to get a look.
The blonde flailed wildly and snatched her notebook back, scooting her chair away so fast she nearly tipped herself over. "D-Don't look!" she exclaimed, flushing badly.
Harumi just stared. The other students enjoying their lunch in the classroom spared them more cursory glances; they were used to their antics by now. "Why not? You summoning the devil with that or something?"
Yuzu bit her lip. "In a way."
Harumi's eyes quirked. "Do tell me more."
Her friend sighed heavily, darting a look both ways before leaning forward again.
"Promise not to tell anyone?"
"Well, this conversation was slated to be in the paper tomorrow, but I'll pass."
Yuzu just rolled her eyes and set the notebook down, letting it fall shut. "…It's about Mei."
Of course it is. "What about her?"
The blonde fiddled nervously with the hems of her sleeves. "Well, you know the two of us have been dating…"
"So I've heard."
"And well, you know, couples like to do…certain things," Yuzu continued evasively, throwing in an equally vague wave of the hand. "Problem is…I'm not very good at it."
Harumi stared at her friend. "Are you asking me for sex advice?"
Yuzu blushed heavily again. "No! I mean-" she fumbled for a second before lowering her head. "Yeah, I guess. But not what to do! I can handle that. It's just…I never know what to say."
The other girl tossed a roll into her mouth. "Say?"
"Yeah, you know," Yuzu affirmed, gesticulating vaguely again. Harumi had the indistinct urge to glue the girl's hands to the table. "It's awkward if we're just silent, right? So I try to talk to her. But I don't know what to say."
"Just read a math textbook out loud to her," Harumi suggested, chewing on a second roll. "I bet that'll get her going."
Yuzu frowned. "I'm serious."
"And you think I'm not?" Harumi shrugged, which earned an exasperated sigh from the blonde. "Or you could file paperwork and make her watch."
Yuzu's forehead hit the desk. "Nevermind," she muttered, her lunch forgotten by her elbow.
Harumi laughed, swallowing and third roll. "Well, I don't see what you-" she paused when something suddenly occurred to her.
Yuzu looked up. "What?"
This just might be the perfect opportunity. If Harumi could dictate Yuzu's actions around Mei, she just might be able to pull an indirect prank on the Prez, not to mention pull off a little cockblocking (or was it pussyblocking?).
"Listen, Yuzu," she said seriously, leaning forward. "I have a plan…"
"Hey, Mei!" Yuzu said brightly, slipping into their shared room. Her little sister was working quietly on their bed, small sheafs of paper scattered around her.
"Hello, Yuzu," Mei said absentmindedly, before returning to her work.
The blonde pursed her lips, toying with the small earpiece she had fastened to her left ear. She could hear Harumi breathing softly on the other end of the connection.
"Get her attention for now," Harumi suggested softly, to avoid detection.
Striding across the room, Yuzu crawled onto the bed on all fours, pushing the little sheets of paper aside. "Hey," she said softly, pulling up to her sister's side. "Pay attention to me."
She reached out and tentatively touched Mei's elbow, trying to appear casual.
Mei just frowned at her, hands going still over her laptop keyboard. "I'm busy right now, Yuzu. We can talk a little later."
"But-"
"Say you have to tell her something!" Harumi commanded, sensing they were about to lose control of the situation.
"I-I have to tell you something!" Yuzu blurted out, catching Mei's attention again. Blinking, the raven haired girl closed her laptop and set it aside, giving Yuzu her fully undivided attention.
"What is it?"
Uhhh… Yuzu flatlined mentally.
"Tell her that if her legs were a convenience store, they'd be open twenty four seven," Harumi suggested.
Yuzu almost sneezed. "What?!"
Mei flinched at the sudden exclamation. "What do you mean, what?" she asked crossly. "And why are you wearing on earpiece?"
"Um-"
"Just do it!"
"If your legs were a convenience store, they'd be open twenty four seven!" Yuzu blurted out again, her face an impressive shade of red.
Mei went completely still, the look on her face unfathomable. Yuzu knew immediately that this wasn't a good idea. She screwed her eyes shut, waiting for her sister to kick her out of the room.
But then there was a soft rustling sound, as Mei shifted in the bed and swallowed thickly.
"Go on," she whispered, eyes dark.
"Um," Yuzu emoted, her mind going into overdrive as Harumi continued to relay instructions through the earpiece. "I'm…I'm going to violate you like the laws of physics."
Mei closed her eyes and inhaled sharply, as if physically affected by the words. One hand came up to caress Yuzu's cheek, who in all honesty had no fucking idea what she was doing.
"Tell me more."
"Your legs are longer than a line on Black Friday."
"Oh…"
What the hell is going on? Yuzu wondered dumbly as Mei fell back in the bed, pulling the blonde along with her so that she was pressed firmly against her. Well, whatever it was, it was definitely working.
"Your eyes are brighter than my future," Harumi said, and Yuzu relayed the message to great effect. Mei actually blushed, reaching up to grasp the back of the blonde's neck.
"Come here," the girl whispered sultrily, picking the earpiece out and tossing it across the room.
"Hello? Yuzu?" Harumi called out from her end, but all she heard with a particularly satisfied moan from Mei.
"Thanks, Harumi!" Yuzu shouted at the earpiece, before Mei shut her up with a kiss.
Sometimes Harumi's plans tended to backfire.
