Hi hi hi ! Sorry for the long await for such a short chapter, I have been really busy with classes and exams, also I really wanted to nail this moment and I thought this was perfectly adequate for the scene. So I didn't write more and left it for the next chapters. (After all, I tend to make them too long :P)

Enjoy!


17:30 - Afternoon

We're coming close to the evening after Mai got soaked, I helped her of the pond but she jokingly pulled me in, it was funny at first before I got cold, she brung me to a dojo and covered me with warm blankets used for winter. We've been sitting in that blanket for a while in silence, her human warmth helps a lot with my coldness, her thighs are pressing in on my tummy, they're so smooth and thick...

Then suddenly, Mai got up from the blanket pile, slid one of the doors open and went to get something. She came back with a little battery radio and some tapes, sat down in the pile and settled the radio in front of us.
"You like heavy metal?" she asks as she puts the tape into the tape player, suddenly a very loud screeching sound of guitar comes in as the drums kicks in and the whole music becomes a chaotic masterpiece. "Ow... Hey, I like that!" I found myself saying surprised, that enlightened Mai's smile. We both cuddled together as the tape played some heavy metal.

19:00 - Evening

...

The tape was coming close to an end as the guitars faded out, Mai reached her hand to take it out but while I was observing her do this, she asked a question which left me perplexed.
"So... What is your relation with Andy?", I was taken off by her sudden questionning but tried to remain calm, "I-I think we're lovers?" I answered trying to lessen my answer to not get her mad. "Thought now?" She said sharply, "Yeah..." I tried to avoid eye contact with her the most before she grabbed my cheek and gave me a kiss!
"I can see why.~" Mai simply said after she was done kissing me, I was stunned by it and my cheeks just got redder.

She got up from the blankets and turned away from me. "Yukari, I know you're not a bad girl." She started before turning toward me and sat in front of me, I felt silly being wrapped in blankets while she was not.

"Andy... I've known him since he was a child. His caretaker passed away and his brother apparently left, he begged my father to train him so he could be stronger and wiser. We were around the same age." Mai started telling her story, I carefully listened knowing it was important. "He was my training partner and even if he was an outsider to our dojo, I quickly grew attached to him and he inserted himself as if he has always been here! We grew up together and well, one day I confessed to him and... He said yes on the moment." Mai slightly stuttered at the end, her lips trembled. "H-he said yes on the moment?" I asked, "Yes, well those were my happiest moments with him." Mai said sighing.
"We were teenagers back then, maybe Andy didn't know much about the concept of love but he backed out once he heard about the commitment it takes. You know? Be together forever, kissing, cuddles and all of that? He just refused afterward." She explained looking a little saddened, "Oh, Mai I'm so sorry." I took the blanket and wrapped her around it into a hug. Mai was curious of what I was doing before returning the hug once she got wrapped in what was now, our blanket fort. "Yukari-chan, you're so cute." She smiled warmly, poking my face."I might steal you for myself hehe."

"Wh-Wha!?" I could only spurt out as Mai's glee expressed itself as she pushed me over onto the ground, she hugged me tightly and just then, we were cuddling. "I hope you're not hungry prisonner! I might keep you longer than I thought!" She said as she started tickling me in my neck and I couldn't stop laughing, we tussled around as I countered with tickles of my own but mine were a bit... badly placed as I tried to attack randomly and I, by pure mishap, touched one of her boobs. "I-..." Mai shouted before acting mad, "Ooooh! That's going to be a bit more jail time for you!" she grabbed me by the waist and suplexed me onto the blankets, "Owaaa!" I could only scream out as I landed on the fluffy warm blankets.
