After holding each other for a while the door flew open and to our extreme surprise cause us to fall back to earth with this harsh realization. It was almost like having cold water thrown on you when your asleep at the time, but worse because the reprecussions of this would be a assault of questions from Kasumi and Miyu on what we did, what did it feel like, and if I actually admitted to Yuri about my feelings.

We had jumped aback at the sudden opening of the door and let go of each other falling over and landing atop one another. All of sudden a series of flashes hit our eyes the whole time we both had a look of shock. It toke me a minute to realized what had just happend , the people in front of me and Yuri, it was Miyu and Kasumi.

They thought it would be funny to throw the door open and take pictures of me and Yuri's " private" time. Miyu smiled at me and exclaimed in a annoyingly chirpy tone " It seems we've interupted something very important, right Kasumi!"

"Nyaa!" yowled Kasumi in almost equal tone

" You guys are just the worse!" I said playfully threatening them

" Excuse us for coming in when your trying to seduce poor innocent Yuri!"

" W-What did you say you... pervert!"

" Well by the looks of it either that's a really friendly hug or your just trying to..."

" THIS IS NOT WHATEVER YOUR ABOUT TO SAY YOU PERVERTED PUNK!" I interrupted trying to save what little innocence Yuri still had , if Miyu hadn't already corrupted that bit yet.

"Well whatever you say Kumi, but you better not be after what I think your after cause your sharing with Yuri tonight!" she said amusingly

" Why do I have to share with Yuri, when there is a perfectly usable guest room nex.."

" Cause me and Kasumi are going to use that room, so it's alright if you share with Yuri besides I'm sure you and her won't sleep for long!" she chirped toward me

I just got off Yuri and stared at how red she was getting as well as confused " W-What do you mean.. Miyu?" she said in her same quiet , " afraid-to-ask-voice" of her's.

"Oh I mean that when two people love each other very much they...!"

I tackled her and covered her mouth whispering threats to her if she finished that sentence.

" I-I don't get it? What does love have to do with...?" I stopped her and said it would be better not to think about it.

So me and Yuri headed off to bed ignoring Miyu's teasing, I was so gonna get revenge on her someday! But till then I just had to put up with one night of sharing a bed with Yuri.

I wondered if I was going to even be able to sleep , I was so nervous to be sleeping next to her ( not that I showed it) . She was more nervous and who could blame her she had a hard time dealing or even understanding feelings especially other's feelings. This was uncomftable for the two of us, but we split the bed and tried to both stay on one side of the bed ( which was hard cause it was meant for only one person and there were two currently) trying to sleep as best we could.

For some reason we chose to face opposite ways, but Yuri turned toward my direction and asked something more like whispered, I turned towards her and asked " What is it Yuri?"

She nervously spoke a little louder " Uh.. Um Kumi .. W-Why do you not get mad when I.. you know grab onto you?"

I felt a blush creeping on my face and thought deeply of what to say or do? I couldn't figure out what would be the correct answer , something told me there was no correct answer just a answer that would decide wether me and Yuri's relationship would go further or never progress.

"Um..Well you see... Yu-Yuri Uh ... Do you..Like M-Me?"

She looked at me alittle surprised and taken a back " Of course your my best friend.. I mean Miyu and me have known each other longer but you..."

" No what I mean is ... Do you Uh like, like me.. You know like how you like a boy or someone more then like a friend."

" Uh... Um I .. I don't get what you mean Kumi?"

" Well do you love me... Yuri?"

" I-I don't know ... Is there a way we can tell?"

I wondered the same thing was there a way to tell if we were in love or not...?

" Well maybe... We could try testing how close we can get without getting nervous or feeling something." I said hesitantly

So we started with our current distance , neither of us felt anything, and so we would get closer by half an inch after explaining how we felt at a certain distance.

About half way we both felt strange and the closer we got the more weird we felt till finally we were so close our noses practically touched.

Just by how red we were by then I could tell, " Looks like we're in love huh Yuri...Heheehe." I said playfully and started to laugh a bit at how Yuri was embarassed at the news, but she started to laugh quietly with me. I pulled her close to me and held onto her, she smiled held onto me back, she was still red from just learning we had feelings for each other... I thought on how akward our relationship was but that's just how I liked it.
