The Prize Is Claimed

Birds chirping, sunrays forcing their way through the curtains; it was morning.

Saturday morning to be precise.

The girls slowly woke up in the Izumi household, to a new day of fun; especially a certain blue-haired otaku by the name of Konata Izumi.

She slowly made her way to the kitchen, wearing only a black tank top and shorts. Joining her was Minami, Yutaka, and Kagami. Tsukasa and Miyuki were still asleep

"Ohayou…" Konata slurred, scratching her side.

"Ohayou oneechan!"

Minami only nodded and Kagami replied tiredly. "Ohayou."

"Another awesome day to spend with…..wait for it… gaming!" Konata exclaimed loudly. Minami and Yutaka sweat dropped while Kagami pretty much introduced her palm to her face.

"As much as I can live with spending a weekend indoors, lets NOT play videogames the entire time Konata.."

"Booo… You aren't fun Kagamin… That reminds me, did you three sleep well?"

Minami nodded once more as usual. Kagami and Yutaka both blushed immediately and nodded as well.

"Y-Yeah! I fell asleep immediately!"

"M-Me too!"

Konata raised an eyebrow at the two. "Huh? What's wrong you two?"

"N-Nothing!" The two burst out, leaving Konata puzzled but she ignored it for now.

Meanwhile, as the four girls prepared and ate breakfast, the two missing girls eventually showed up, giggling.

"Ohayou you two! Good thing you turned up, breakfast would have been cold otherwise." Kagami said.

"Gomen oneechan, but it was so warm and cosy…" Tsukasa said with a sheepish smile. Kagami could only smile in return and nod. Soon the two newcomers joined in and they all ate breakfast together.

"Ah, Kagamin, you clumsy eater you~ You got some peanut butter from your toast on you."

"S-shut up! Where is it..?" Kagami used her index finger to try and find said peanut butter. Konata who was sitting in front of her, snickered, and dove under the table, and popped up next to `her` beloved tsundere.

"Silly Kagamin~ Its on your right mouth-corner. Let me get it off you…"

Konata gently grabbed Kagami´s head to turn it so she could lick it off. However, before she could even motion the head to turn towards her, a small blur of red hair appeared right next to the small spot of peanut butter.

*Chu*

Yutaka had licked the butter off Kagami´s face with a blush, and quickly returned to eat her own breakfast. Kagami and Konata stared wide-eyed at the small(er) girl, with Kagami recovering faster and smiled.

"T-Thanks Yutaka-chan…"

"M-m-m-my p-p-pleasure.."

Kagami and Yutaka shared a look, both blushing as if they were paid for it. Konata however was frozen in shock, while Miyuki and Tsukasa only stared in surprise at the two. Minami smiled widely at her friend.

´I see that things turned out fine.. I'm happy for you Yutaka…´

"…Yu-chan, what did you just…"

"….Uh…I-I like p-peanut b-b-butter…?"

Miyuki clapped her hands together loudly. "Lets continue with what we were doing yesterday, ne?"

"Haai! I want to play games!" Tsukasa exclaimed.

The rest, nodded and brought their plates and glasses to the living room. Along the way, Miyuki threw a reassuring wink at Kagami and Yutaka. They both blushed once more, but smiled nonetheless.

Konata, after slowly dragging herself while staring entirely at Yutaka, turned on the TV and the console, them slumped onto the beanbag.

"Hey, Yu-chan, wanna play M***o K**t again? You against me!"

Yutaka was taken back by how serious her cousin sounded. Even if it was gaming, her life, it was more like.. An angry challenge.

"Uh.. Ehm.. O-okay.."

The two cousins began a race, with only them participating. They began to drive.

"Yosh yosh yosh! Lets see if you can keep up with me Yu-chan!"

Yutaka tried her hardest, successfully keeping up with her cousin. The last lap was on, and Yutaka had managed to take the lead.

"Go Yutaka-chan!" Tsukasa eagerly shouted. Miyuki giggled and gently inched closer to the short-haired twin.

Minami simply held her thumbs and calmly cheered. "Looking good Yutaka… You can do it.."

Konata on the other hand was rather furious about the whole thing. She every now and then threw looks over at Kagami and / or Yutaka.

"Gah, not fair! Kagami, do me a favour and distract Yu-chan for me!"

"Eeeh?"

"Konata, that's hardly fair at all you know." Suddenly, it struck Kagami. Her lips turned into a smirk. "On second thought, alright."

"K-Kagami-sempai..?"

Grinning, Kagami scooted over so she sat right behind Yutaka. She nudged Yutaka´s side with her index fingers, before slowly letting them trail up and down, until they reached her neck. Yutaka was ticklish, but laugh she did not. She could only let out a low, soft moan as an reaction to Kagami´s touch.

Which of course made Konata tear her gaze away from the screen and onto the two. The others were confused and surprised, with the exception of Minami who let out a giggle.

"..That's… That's now what.. I meant…" Was all Konata could say, oblivious that Yutaka wasn't as distracted as she ought to be, and thereby won the race.

"Oh..? Y-Yatta! I w-won!"

"Good for you Yutaka-chan!" Kagami patted the smaller girl on the head, ruffling her hear playfully. Yutaka giggled with reddened cheeks.

Konata shifted gaze from the two, and the screen. "Huh? But wha- … How.. No way! Not fair, y-you were supposed to be helping me Kagamin…"

Kagami sneered at Konata. "Serves you right."

"Meanie, Kagamin.."

Yutaka laughed a bit and with a smile replied.

"Oneechan, l-looks like y-your prize w-was claimed.."

Fin! Hope you liked it. ^^

Third chapter may be written …. Sometime. :3
