Chapter 49: Back Together

The young pinkette was brought out of her gaming session by a quiet knock at the door. It was well past three in the morning, she definitely wasn't expecting anyone. Putting her controller down, she cautiously walked over to the door, surprised to see a familiar face through the small hole.

There was no hesitation as she opened the door, though her words didn't join in her eagerness. "You couldn't have just texted me back?" She is in a low tone, she hadn't received a reply from her girlfriend in several hours and she hadn't expected to get one. She had said some impulsive things when Harumi has said she didn't want to stay the night, she thought the girl was within her rights not to reply, she wasn't expecting her to show up at her door several hours later.

"Are you going to let me in or not, it's raining?" Ignoring her girlfriend's question, Harumi motioned to herself; she was soaked head to toe. Matsuri had her headphones on, of course, she didn't know it was raining. Moving back into the apartment, the younger fetched a hand towel and passed it to her girlfriend as she shut the door and took her jacket off.

"Do I have any spare clothes here?" Harumi as she started taking off her wet jeans that stuck to her skin. There was a moment of silence as Matusri tried to figure out what her girlfriend's game was. Why she was here. Why she hadn't said she was coming over. And why she was no longer annoyed. But she was soaking wet and shivering.

"Yeah, why don't you go for a shower and ill get them for you?" The younger offered as she watched Harumi drape the clothing over the radiator. "I don't want a shower, can you just get me the clothes please?" Though the offer was quickly turned down as Harumi started unbuttoning her shirt as she turned to her girlfriend expectantly.

If she did go for a shower she might catch a cold, but Matsuri wasn't in the mood to argue. Leaving wordlessly, she trudged down the hall to her room and pulled out a pyjama set from her girlfriend's drawer.

"What are you doing here, I thought you didn't want to spend tonight with me?" Matsuri asked sharply as she handed the set off to her girlfriend, being noteful to look at her breasts as she did.

"I had a change of heart, you shouldn't still be up." Harumi chastised as she covered her shivering body with the warm clothes. She had spent the last several hours thinking non-stop about her girlfriend, she did love her dearly. And the more she thought about it the more she craved to see the girl.

Without any further words, Harumi made her way down the hall and crawled under the covers of the king-sized bed, slightly relieved when the younger girl followed her in and joined her.

Harumi wasn't a cuddler, she never had been. She was content with the girl lying next to her, their arms brushing under the thick quilt.

Quietly turning, Harumi placed a genre kiss to the girl's lips as she watched the younger turn to face her.

"...Sorry I left earlier," Harumi said quietly, she definitely was not one for talking about her feelings, but she knew that Matsuri was looking for something from her tonight to explain her mysterious arrival.

"It's fine, don't worry about it. Sorry, I shouted at you before you left."

There was a silence after that, one that resulted in both the girls, giving a small smile before Harumi rolled back onto her back to go to sleep. She felt the girl move closer, head just millimetres from her shoulder before she whispered a soft 'goodnight'.

"Night," Placing a kiss to the top of the girl's head, Harumi let sleep to overtake her.

She had been up for hours and could a say she was exhausted. She couldn't stay up to the early hours of the morning as the younger girl could, she had a routine and she didn't like to mess with it. And here she was, struggling to keeps her thoughts in check and going against her normal schedule.

Tomorrow was a new day and she was sure she would have to make a decision as to what she wanted to do. She didn't want to give this up, she loved the girl. This was her first love, she didn't know what she would do or what would happen to their friendship group if they split up. Their relationship was by no means on the ropes, Harumi though they were quite a compatible pair, if you took out all the pointless disagreements, she was happy with Matsuri.

She didn't want to think about it anymore, it was all too confusing. She had never thought about breaking up with Matsuri until tonight and all the mental strain was exhausting.

So letting herself drift off to sleep, Harumi smiled when she felt the girl shuffle onto her shoulder and nuzzle in before completely passing out.
