Chapter 44

'I don't look half bad. My calves are pretty nice looking and I love how pale they are. Oh Gods, I'm so bad! Did I just... Picture Lancel's fingers on them? Fuck, girl, you are hella crazy!'

Marina looked at her reflection again, adjusting some parts of her uniform, making sure everything was in place, including covering her calves with her socks. She had decided to make another change, even though it was getting towards the end of the year.

She now wore her skirt at mid-thigh length and also wore knee high socks. It was weird, she thought, how the human brain worked. While she knew she was beautiful, it was only with Lancel that she actually felt this way, her faith in her belief only stronger with his affection towards her.

Even if the only exposed skin on her legs now was her knees and her thighs, at least the lower half of them.

'If we go to Japan Expo together one day, I could cosplay Tsumugi. A chubby girl with a hot date. And a shorter skirt. Just to see his reaction.'

She had never expected her libido to kick in so hard with him, yet it was pleasant.

Even more when she finally arrived at school and walked over to Lancel, when she saw his amazed face when he saw her. He was completely numbed out but, after he regained his composure, he whispered tenderly in her ear.

"You are beautiful."

It never felt more true to her.

While walking by her side, holding her by the shoulder, Lancel still couldn't believe what he was seeing. He was seeing her in the shortest skirt the school allowed. Of course, if she decided to go back to the trousers, he'd understand, after all, her body, her choice as they said.

But he was so happy she had tried to embrace her feminine side, because she did have one. Not the conventional one, but still one. He had to admit, he had been swept of his feet. For a moment, he had even wondered if it was her.

"The next time I show my legs like this…I'm going to wear shorts underneath." Marina confessed

He looked at her puzzled, and a little worried, worried she had seen someone trying to perv on her. But she then explained.

"My thighs are rubbing against each other and it burns a bit."

He nodded, understanding now. "Ah, I see. I'm so sorry."

She shook her head, laughing. "Hey. I chose to try. It's pretty fun. I actually like it, it's not too bad, showing some skin."

That was all he needed to hear, to end up laughing a little himself.

Walking out of school at the end of the day he grinned, as did Marina as she walked beside him. The sun was shining harder, brighter and warmer with each day passing by, making people aware that summer was around the corner.

The school year had passed so fast! Lancel was amazed by how Marina's school outfit had changed in just one single year, growing even more confident. She already loved herself, all she had needed was a push in actually feeling at ease with some clothes. He didn't know where her discomfort came from in the first place, skirts seemed to have been made for her and she had pretty legs at least to him.

Not really long, nor thin true. But the line of her calves was well defined, even through her knee socks. He recalled when she wore her knee length skirt and ankle socks, when he actually saw her calves.

Their paleness had been quite attractive, just as the paleness of her now visible knees and lower thighs was now, and surprisingly, despite her weight, she had an average sized behind, not the bubble butt Joffrey claimed she had, though it made him ill-at-ease to have noticed such a special detail in her.

She was putting skirts on more and more often and he suspected she did that for him. For her too, she never forced herself, but for him as well.

He felt a bit bad to have that power over her wardrobe.

'I don't force her to. Whenever she puts on trousers, I do not become mad at her. I'm not Joffrey.'

Looking at his calendar app on his phone, he felt his heart aching. The school year was almost over. The exchange was almost over. Marina would be heading home pretty soon and their lovely fairy-tale would come to an end.

He knew Marina liked him, they would face the challenge that was long distances relationships, but still, to be far away from her was a thing he didn't want to imagine nor to face. It was just too painful.

"That's quite the sad face."

He tried to give her a smile, though crooked.

"Lancel, you don't have to pretend with me. What is it?" She asked.

Her voice was soft but concerned.

"The school year is almost over."

He didn't need to add anything. To his surprise, she remained unfazed.

Smiling she simply told him. "I'm not going back to France."

"I'm sorry?"

He was certain to have misheard.

"I'll go back for the holidays, sure, but I am not leaving for good." She explained softly

He seemed confused and if he hadn't been so worked up at the idea of finding himself all alone again, she would have found it cute.

"I talked to my parents. The college you wish to attend has all the things that interested me in a French college." She told him, smiling. "Even more on some parts. They seemed surprised, they thought I was mainly staying here for you. Which isn't really a lie. But why would I deprive myself of the treat you are for a thing I can share with you?"

"You're staying here?" He gasped

"I am. We'll be attending the same college. I may even move here for good. My parents understand and agree." She told him happily.

His relief was obvious and she hugged him close.

"Say, if we attend the same school... And since we're together..." He asked, stumbling over his words a bit. "How do you feel about us living together?"

Marina seemed surprised at his idea.

"You mean it?" She whispered

He nodded.

"I'm a terrible cook."

"I hate doing the dishes or laundry."

They shared a smile. It would take some time to organize it all but they couldn't wait for that new chapter of their common adventure.
