A/N: So I just finished taking some exams and felt in the mood for procrastination… SO I ENDED UP WRITING THIS. Hope it doesn't suck too badly and that you guys like it! I hope.
"I thought I'd say it to break the tension." Kazuto said as he rubbed the place the pillow had hit his forehead.
"Then could you say things that we could ACTUALLY do?" Sugu said as she slightly glared at her older brother, who laughed nervously under her sister's stare. Asuna sighed as she saw how her boyfriend was acting, Shinichi smiling. Asuna turned to Sugu, who finally let down her glare.
"Suguha-chan, why don't you tell us how your date went?" She asked, making Sugu blush as well as the bespectacled boy next to her.
"W-Why!? I-I'm pretty sure you guys have more interesting stories!" she said, not looking them in the eyes as her face continued to her more red while Shinichi seemed more interested in his glasses, fidgeting as he was cleaning them. Asuna and Kazuto couldn't help but smile as they saw the new couple act embarrassed, thinking on how they must have acted like that around others when they were in public with their friends and family.
'Although Asuna's reactions are much more adorable...' Kazuto thought, his arm getting smacked a few seconds later by his girlfriend.
"I could tell you were thinking something…" Asuna whispered to him before pouting, looking away slightly so that he couldn't see the light blush she had. Even in the poor lighting of the room, Kazuto could see the new color that had dominated her face and smiled, looking back at the couple before them.
"You two are a new couple so you might as well tell us…" Kazuto said, getting another pillow to the face.
"You're not helping!" Sugu said with her face all red now.
"I wasn't even the one who originally asked!" Kazuto said as he took the pillow off his face.
"But Asuna-san is too nice to hit."
"So it's okay to hit your big brother!?" he asked, thinking about throwing the pillow back at her but Asuna took it out of his hands and put it far from his reach on the couch, knowing what he was thinking of doing.
"Then what do you guys want to talk about?" Asuna asked as she pushed Kazuto away, who was attempting to grab the pillow. Sugu and Shinichi looked at each other and silently asked one another, but they didn't know. Kazuto was about to suggest something to embarrass his sister again but he heard a sound outside that made him get up, making the others look at him.
"I think I heard a... car?" He said as he went to the window to check, careful to not hit anything on the way with in the poorly lit room. When he got to the window, he saw that he was right, seeing Midori's car in the semi-snowed driveway.
"Is it Oka-san?" Sugu asked as she got up, walking in the direction of the hallway in case it was.
"Yeah. You might want to… open the door." He turned around mid-sentence and saw that she had already left to open the door.
"Why does she even ask if she doesn't listen to me in the first place…" he said as he walked to the hallway, seeing Sugu open the door to Midori, shaking the snow off of her head.
"Wow it hasn't been this cold since you guys were small!" She said as she took off her jacket and shoes. Midori finally took a good look at the house and saw that the lights were out. She walked to the living room and saw that Asuna and Shinichi were sitting there.
"Good. You're all alright. I called your parents already and told them that you guys were here. They agreed that it's too dangerous for you guys to go home right now so for now you guys are stuck here. Asuna-chan your father said it was alright if you have to stay here for the night, the same goes for you Nagata-kun." She said to them, making both of them blush as they understood their words. Kazuto and Sugu who were behind her also blushed from what she said, only Kazuto and Asuna blushing slightly since they were used to sleeping in the same room.
'S-She wouldn't make us sleep together would she? Actually she might if only just to tease us...' Kazuto thought as he fidgeted with his hands, putting them in his pockets. Sugu quickly turned to her mother, her face more red than anyone else in the room.
"S-So all girls in one room and the boy's in another, right?" She asked.
"Hmm… I'll think about it..."
"Oka-san!"
"Okay! Okay!" Midori said as she raised her hands up, "You really can't take a joke can you…" She finished as she sat down in an armchair across next to the couch, Kazuto and Sugu sitting next to their respective partners.
"Nagata-kun."
"Y-Yes!?" he said, sitting up as straight as he could with a red face.
"Please try to get Suguha to loosen up."
"Oka-san! T-There's no need to tell him that!" Sugu said as she flailed her hands a bit.
"I told you she wanted to tease her." Kazuto whispered to Asuna, who was trying not to laugh at how Sugu was acting.
"I-I'm just glad that it's not us she's teasing…" Asuna whispered back to him, covering her mouth when she saw that Shinichi was also trying not to laugh at how she was acting.
"Nagata-kun don't laugh!" Sugu said as she pouted at him.
"I-I'm not… at least not yet anyway…" he said, the last part semi-whispered.
"I can still hear you!" Sugu said, hitting his arm lightly. Midori was smiling throughout the whole exchange between the couple, Kazuto and Asuna doing the same. Midori turned to look at her son and his girlfriend, mouthing to Kazuto if he had asked Nagata-kun yet. He mouthed back a no and received a good, surprising him since now he didn't know what his mother was planning.
'Things are either going to get interesting or awkward… Hopefully the first one and it's not because of us.' he thought as the snow continued to pile up outside.
