LET ME FEEL YOU (MINE)

There was something about the life of a productive adult that Nagisa didn't like very much: the mandatory outings with co-workers and the boss to drink. Not that Nagisa was dissatisfied with her work; she was doing well as a PE teacher and as the coach of the lacrosse team at the school where she worked. Her co-workers liked her very much and the school principal held her in high esteem. Nagisa didn't have any complaints except for one:

The mandatory outings where she preferred to be at home with Honoka and not drinking sake at the insistence of her coworkers.

Nagisa wasn't even good at drinking alcohol, she got drunk too fast! And Nagisa was fully aware that her coworkers were amused by seeing her giddy and talking nonsense.

"Misumi-sensei, one more drink!" The math teacher encouraged her.

"Oh come on! I can't feel my arms anymore!" Nagisa complained and everyone at the table laughed. However, she drank all the sake in one gulp. She wasn't the only drunk, everyone at the table was. "You guys will have to take me home! Honoka is going to scold me because of all of you!" Nagisa complained. "You all are a bad influence! I quit!"

"She's not going to scold you, she adores you," said the Physics teacher after drinking one more drink and continuing to eat barbecue.

"I want to go home and be with my Honoka!" Nagisa whimpered with her drunken tongue. She leaned back on the table as she reached for one more piece of meat and awkwardly brought it to her mouth.

"It's late anyway, maybe we should go now," another of the teachers said and they all agreed.

It was already past eleven at night. It was Friday. They all met twice a month on Fridays to go out to drink, eat and strengthen ties between colleagues; as the school principal used to say. After paying the bill, everyone left. Most of the teachers were married, a couple were single due being the youngest ones, and Nagisa was in a relationship that everyone knew about but no one talked about so as not to make her nice PE teacher uncomfortable. Living with a woman, at her age, and in a country like Japan, put Nagisa in a situation where it was best to be discreet.

But drunken Nagisa was not discreet, all the way she was whining about Honoka. Her colleague, the Physics female teacher, was the one who usually took her home in a taxi.

Taxis were pretty expensive but Honoka specifically asked for the favor of taking her in a taxi and that she would pay for it when they arrived. By the way, that same taxi was taking the other teacher to her house, so she wasn't going to deny that generous request from the nice PE teacher's partner.

Precisely, Nagisa's colleague had Honoka in her phone contacts, so she called her to let her know that they had already arrived at the apartment complex where they lived. Honoka went downstairs as fast as she could, still wearing her glasses and day clothes. There was an elevator so she got there in less than a minute. She obviously had been waiting for them.

"Your beloved one has made it home complete and unharmed," the teacher said and Honoka chuckled.

"Thank you very much, Takeda-sensei."

Honoka didn't have to hold Nagisa; the latter awkwardly threw herself into her partner's arms, hanging onto her body as she rubbed lovingly against her. Still with Nagisa in her arms, Honoka managed to pay the taxi driver and ask him to take the other teacher home.

"Bye bye!" The teacher got into the taxi and drove off, leaving the couple alone.

"I wanted to see you, Honoka," Nagisa muttered as she hugged her partner tightly.

"Let's go home so you can rest," Honoka said lovingly as she managed to make it to the elevator with Nagisa dangling from her body. It was quite a funny scene, but Honoka had no problem taking her dear Nagisa home with dignity.

"Honoka..." Nagisa whimpered.

"I'm here."

Nagisa was definitely quite drunk and that made her quite in need of physical affection.

"Somehow I'll manage to give you a shower and then you can sleep through the night," Honoka said with a small smile knowing that Nagisa would have a hard time with the hangover the next day. "I'll prepare medicine for you. Tomorrow you'll hate the world and your colleagues, but you'll survive."

Nagisa stammered something in response but it was impossible to understand her. Honoka smiled. For Nagisa everything passed like a blurry landscape, as if she was in a speeding car and the things in front of her disappeared just as they appeared. At times she squeezed her eyelids and then saw herself surrounded by warm water. She heard Honoka's voice but clearly that wasn't enough. Nagisa needed to feel Honoka.

Despite Nagisa hugging her as if her arms were snakes around their prey, Honoka had no problem drying and dressing Nagisa in her pajamas after bath.

"Honoka...I..."

"Here I am, Nagisa, I won't leave your side."

"Honoka, I want to feel you," Nagisa murmured as she tried to kiss her wife. "Let me feel you."

A sweet smile formed on Honoka's lips as she decided to kiss her forehead. They both had a mutual agreement to take care of themselves when they got drunk, they would never lay a hand on each other if one of them wasn't up to it. Honoka just kissed Nagisa's forehead and cheeks.

"Tomorrow I'll give you all the kisses you want, you're going to need it while you're hungover," Honoka said softly into Nagisa's ear. "But until then, I'll hold you all night."

By then she was already making her partner comfortable in her bed but Nagisa didn't want to let go. Honoka smiled and continued to speak sweetly into her ear.

"I'll go lock the door and turn off the lights, wait for me here, okay?"

Nagisa nodded weakly and wrapped the blanket around her own body. Honoka quickly looked the main door and turned off the lights in the apartment and returned to the room, changed into her pajamas and climbed into bed with Nagisa, who immediately wrapped her arms around her.

The couple hugged under the cover of darkness and the warmth of the blanket. Nagisa clung to Honoka's torso as Honoka lovingly encircled Nagisa's head and shoulders. Honoka couldn't blame her partner for being drunk, she went out with her colleagues from the lab on the last Friday of every month to eat and drink. The only difference was that Honoka needed more alcohol to get drunk, while Nagisa had very little resistance to it.

Nagisa was still dizzy, she was about to let herself be embraced by Morpheus's arms as well, but her nose breathed Honoka's aroma as if that was the only thing she needed to survive. She felt so needy of Honoka at that moment that her hands awkwardly caressed Honoka's waist and back.

"I want to feel you," Nagisa murmured against Honoka's pajamas.

"Here I am, Nagisa, I'm with you," Honoka replied tenderly as her fingers stroked through Nagisa's hair. "You can hug me tighter if you want."

Nagisa tried but she felt her arms limp; instead, she managed to slip her arms under her partner's pajama shirt. She could feel Honoka's soft skin, the warmth made her smile and she buried her face in her partner's chest. That position even was softer and warmer.

Honoka had her eyes closed as she also enjoyed Nagisa's scent. When she heard the steady breathing of her wife, she knew that she had already fallen asleep. The best thing was to sleep too; the young researcher couldn't wait to see her precious Nagisa with a hangover worthy of a champion.

"Good night, my lovely Nagisa," she said and kissed the top of her head.

~o~

Nagisa grunted a bit and her sore muscles moving to stretch her body was enough to feel the first kicks of the hangover. She felt that her head was exploding, that her mouth tasted like ashes and that her stomach was full of scorpions. She sat up and felt dizziness and more pain that made her grunt and hold her head with both hands.

"Ah! Honoka, the world is made of pain!" She cried Nagisa as she felt like dying. "I can't believe it! Everything hurts!"

Honoka just entered the bedroom; she had a tray in her hands with a jug full of water and medicine to alleviate the symptoms of a hangover.

"Good morning darling." Honoka greeted in a soft voice knowing that Nagisa herself must be suffering from a severe headache. She poured her water in a glass and left the jug on the dresser by the bed. She smiled as Nagisa drank all the water and helped herself to more. She immediately drank the effervescent medicine. "Drink all the water in the pitcher and I'll bring you more. You'll feel better soon."

"Thank you, Honoka," Nagisa said after drinking the second glass of water. "Oh how I hate them!" She complained but yelling at her coworkers made her head hurt more. "Ouch!"

"Take it easy," Honoka said as she stroked her hair. "I'm making breakfast; we'll have breakfast in bed."

"OK", Nagisa sighed. "It's not fair that my hangovers are so bad, I wish I had more resistance like you."

Honoka laughed softly. "I think it's better that you whine for me and want to see me when you get drunk," she said and suddenly she felt embarrassed. "Compared to me, who looks for a fight with whoever gets in front of me."

Nagisa smiled. "Hey, it's not so bad, you think of me when you get drunk too."

"That's because I keep showing everyone your picture and when someone says you're cute, I get mad and fight them."

Nagisa laughed and immediately regretted doing it, a pang of pain in her head shutting her up. Honoka approached Nagisa and gently kissed her lips, a chaste and sweet kiss.

"Take it easy sweetie, you'll feel like you hate the world for a few more hours, but you'll be better by afternoon," Honoka said, adjusting Nagisa's pajamas.

Nagisa pouted. "I must check my students' assignments."

"I'll help you with that and we'll finish quickly, for now I want you to rest, okay?"

The teacher gave Honoka a long look, her wife's sweet and loving expression, her sympathetic dark-blue eyes and her almost motherly voice. Nagisa sighed. She opened her arms obviously hoping her partner would catch the message.

Honoka smiled and hugged her tightly. Nagisa plopped down on the bed and they both settled into a tight hug.

"Let me feel you a little more."

"As much as you wish, Nagisa."

"Can I kiss you? Oh, forget it! My mouth is still sour. I must have bad breath."

"I already know all your flavors, Nagisa," Honoka said in a husky, flirtatious voice. "Each and every one of them. And I adore them."

Nagisa screamed in a high-pitched panicked voice, soon to feel a long, loving, and deep kiss. Honoka tasted like her favorite black tea brand. The kiss lasted for seconds that seemed like hours and Honoka was the first to end the kiss, she smiled at Nagisa as she smoothed her hair back.

"I'll go make breakfast, I'm sure you need to freshen up a bit."

"Yes," Nagisa said still haunted by the kiss.

"I'll be back soon, drink more water."

Nagisa nodded awkwardly and covered her own face with both hands as Honoka left the bedroom. The young teacher smiled as if she were a teenager in love. She was actually a functional adult in love and she liked that idea. She was also in love and in a relationship with someone like Honoka. She smiled.

"Mine," Nagisa mumbled and decided to go to the bathroom to brush her teeth, comb her hair, and wash her face. She still felt that the world was made of pain, but it wasn't so bad to suffer a hangover in Honoka's arms and affection. "I love you, Honoka."
