Work Text:
It was nightime, this time Kurara was having a sleepover, she invited her friends for a night to talk about girls stuff. She invited Nozomi, Kyoshika, Moko and Tsubasa, they were talking about the boys.
"So just like that, Takumi kept looking at me with that cute outfit I tried." Nozomi explained embarrassed.
"Awww he really likes you if he kept looking at you." Moko commented.
"Hehe, I guess you right, he sometimes day dreams looking at me, I feel flattered." Nozomi said smilling.
"That's cute, Shion has the same habit of looking at me when I work, I can feel his smile looking at me." Tsubasa commented.
"You girls have lovers? I wish I have someone to fall in love with." Kyoshika explained.
"Don't worry Kyoshika, there are boys out here who could catch you eyes." Moko reassure Kyoshika.
"Ok! Enough about that, I want to know if you guys have ever kissed." Kurara asked that question. Moko got a little excited as she heard that while the other three blushed.
"Do we have too?" Tsubasa asked flustered.
"Come on, its not that big of a deal." Nozomi answered blushing.
"Besides, we can share how closed you guys gotten with your lovers, right?" Kyoshika said flustered.
"You guys already did?!" Moko shouted excited.
"Well, yeah." Nozomi said flustered.
"Same here" Tsubasa said blushing.
"Well, I don't know if I can collaborate with it?" Kyoshika said not sure.
"Kyoshika, you most have! You are the definition of losing you virgin kiss easily!" Kurara insulted.
"Huh!? It was romantic, even the holy jumonji sword watched!" Kyoshika corrected.
"So the sword was cucking?" Kurara laughed.
"Lady Kurara!!!" Kyoshika shouted flustered.
"Now now! Kurara respect their time together." Moko said.
"By the way, Kurara had you gotten a kiss before?" Tsubasa questioned.
"Right, you didn't tell me anything before." Nozomi said.
"Come on, Lady Kurara you most had kissed someone before, right?" Kyoshika questioned.
".........." Kurara stayed silent, she didn't indeed not kissed before, even with going out with Gaku she didn't, she gets to embarrassed by the idea of kissing, so she didn't even tried it yet.
"Kurara, is ok to admit that you haven't kised yet." Moko commented.
"Mmmmm" Kurara sounded flustered and angry.
"Is this why you brought this up, just so you can humiliate us?" Tsubasa questioned.
"Hahaha, so you haven't lost you virgin kiss huh?!" Kyoshika commented.
"So you admit you did it?" Tsubasa questioned.
"Come on guys, lets not gang up on her." Nozomi tried to defend Kurara, even if she tried to make herself look better.
That night was a humiliation for Kurara not for her family name but for herself. As she looked at the roof of her room after the sleepover, she was thinking of what to do for now.
The next day came and it was afternoon Kurarafelt like crap. She got out of her room and found Gaku and Takumi talking.
"So, how are you and Nozomi going on, you seemed happy yersteday." Gaku asked.
"Oh, well... I don't need to tell you!" Takumi shouted flustered.
"Come on! You can tell me." Gaku wanted to hear.
"... Alright, Nozomi had this cute outfit she tried on, and I just kept looking at her. She might gotten creeped out by me." Takumi explained embarrassed.
"(Of course she would think that)" Kurara told herself in her mind.
"That's creepy." Gaku insulted.
"Speak for yourself." Takumi insulted back
Both looked like they are having a nice conversation. Kurara decided to interving.
"Ha! No wonder Nozomi was weirded out yesterday." Kurara lied.
"Huh? Kurara!" Takumi said nervous.
"Oh! Hey Kurara." Gaku greeted.
"Wait, Kurara! What did you meant by Nozomi being weirded out." Takumi asked worried.
"Like I said, Nozomi told us how weirded out she felt, when you kept looking at her in that outfit!" Kurara kept lying.
"Oh, Takumi you somehow screwed yourself." Gaku said laughing.
".........." Takumi was having a crisis in his head.
"Kurara!!!" Someone shouted, it was Nozomi. Then her mask had been removed.
"Huh? Nozomi! Give it back!" Kurara went to her shy self.
"No! Only when you apologise to Takumi!" Nozomi sounded angry.
"......... I'm sorry, Takumi." Kurara said crying.
"You are not sorry! You know what, You won't be getting you mask back, come with me, Takumi!" Nozomi commanded.
"Huh?! Okay?" Takumi didn't know what happened but he did as he was told.
"Noooooooooo!!!" Kurara shouted desperated but then she saw that Nozomi winking at her, she didn't understood why.
"Nozomi you bully!" Kurara shouted angry while crying. Gaku looked worried, he went to Kurara side and grabbed her hand.
"Nozomi... don't worry, Kurara I'm sure she didn't do this because she hates you." Gaku tried to calm down Kurara.
"I know it just... I wanted to tease Takumi, I didn't expected that." Kurara said feeling shy.
"(His hand is warm and big, I love it when he reach it to me and acts gentle, its calm me down.)" Kurara thoughts said.
"Come this way, lets go and see the view!" Gaku suggested.
"Alright, just don't look at me." Kurara said looking away blushing.
They both went to the back and saw the view. It was somehow beautiful with the undying flames lighting making it more shiny.
"Looks great, right?" Gaku asked.
"Its beautiful" Kurara responded.
"Sometimes I can't believe I am here, even if I was forced to be in this war, I'm glad I am experiencing this." Gaku said smilling.
"Weird way to say thanks to the people up the satelite." Kurara commented.
"I know its weird, but I think Sometimes about my family back home, they think I left like my older brother." Gaku said looking at the view.
"You always talk about them, having siblings sound like a big burden to deal with." Kurara said.
"So true, but the company is something I always will treasure, even at the worst times I was never alone." Gaku said as he was feeling sad.
"How many times will you get emotional when you talk about you family!" Kurara said trying to hide her face.
"I can't help it! *sniff* I miss them!" Gaku said tears in his eyes and then he wiped those tears and smiled again.
"But, I am not alone, I have all you guys. Takumi, Takemaru, Darumi, Ima, Kako, Nozomi, Kyoshika, Yugamu and most importantly you Kurara." Gaku said blushing. he most had felt embarrassed saying that, he was expecting Kurara to laugh but when he looked at her, She was looking at him, blushing and surprised.
Kurara felt butterflies in her stomach, she sometimes gets surprised that Gaku can be sweet, most of the times he act sour but these moments makes Kuraras heart to pound from happiness.
"You... you need to stop with those cheesy words! They are boring!" Kurara shouted flustered.
"Oh come on, I'm talking about my feelings here!" Gaku shouted flustered.
That's when Gaku asked.
"How about you? How do you feel about this?" Gaku asked.
".........." Kurara didn't had a sad home, but.
"Somehow I always felt alone, scared, worried, always on guard, every person I ever meet always ended up hurting me, they hide their true intentions, they lie, they want my money, sometimes I wonder why? Why did I had everything but kind people?" Kurara said sounding like crying, but like Gaku did, she shaked her head and wiped her tears away from her eyes.
"I'm glad I had the others with me, they see me for who I am rather then what I have."
"You were a odd case, you always took the opportunity to gain something, even if that made you be hated by others... It was pretty obvious how someone who only ask for 50,000 yens would be, I thought you were like the others... I didn't care for obvious reason, but I took a look at you again and again and again and again, until I realized." Kurara stopped.
"What did you realized?" Gaku questioned.
"You always said what was on you mind, you never lied about you intention, you spoke the truth about what you were, so It didn't bother me. But when you lie, its always about something about yourself and when you get caught its always about your problems, your mistakes and mostly when you try to help and make everyone happy, even with the parties, that smile you got when you thinking about it, like right now!" Kurara pointed at Gaku.
"Huh? Am I smilling?" Gaku questioned.
"Of course you are, you Idiot!" Kurara said laughing with joy.
"But what did you realized then?" Gaku asked.
"That no matter what were you gonna do with the money, wether you earn it, you took, you find, you stole, anyway you could get money, you never were going to use it on you but for you family. Gaku, you are a selfless fool." Kurara said looking worried.
"Huh?... What are you talking about, I know what I am going to do with the money, after giving enough to my parents, enough to give lifetime food for my siblings, a doctor to cure my sister... I... I... I don't know, maybe... do I just want to be a wallet for my family? to make sure they have a good life, to the point where... I don't know what I want to do." Gaku questioned his life.
"Gaku... I won't worry about that if I were you!" Kurara said confidently.
"Why?" Gaku asked confused.
"Like you said, we are never alone. We have our friends with us, when we finish the 100 days we can stay connected and we won't have to get worried about anything because, we have eachother. Nozomi, Takumi, Kyoshika, Yugamu, Moko, everyone." Kurara said blushing and feeling embarrassed.
"Hehe, I thought you said not to say something cheesy?" Gaku laughed.
"Is okay when I do it!" Kurara shouted flustered.
Both looked again at the view, they talked about how they felt about the situation they were facing, there was no worry for both of them.
"I know we can do this... as long as... we are together." Gaku felt super embarrassed saying those cheesy lines again. But Kurara looked at his flustered face facing the view, She was having more butterflies in her stomach.
"Gaku... I" Kurara felt like getting closer to Gaku. She moved him to look at her, face to face.
"Kurara?" Gaku asked confused and flustered.
"After learning you selflessness, I started to look at you with interest, I spent my time with you , We fight, we argue, we have fun, It was so much fun spending time with you!" Kurara was trying not to stutter, she wanted to say what her heart was surpressing from her mask.
"No matter the good and bad traits you have, I always saw how kind you were and my heart kept loving you!" Kurara shouted as she went gently for a kiss, her lips connecting to his, she felt how soft his lips felt, she was warming up from how happy she was feeling. Her first kiss felt so warm and blissful.
She released her lips from Gakus.
"I really love you, I feel so happy being with you. So, no matter what happens, I always be there for you. In exchange, please be there for me! no matter what happens." Kurara was so happy and blushing at what she did.
"Kurara... I promise." Gaku said feeling happy as well.
"Can I... kiss you again?" Kurara asked.
"I can't say no." Gaku said as he leaned to kiss Kurara, her lips felt so soft and warm, he couldn't believe he loves Kurara so much, he didn't wanted it to be a dream but he realized that it was not a dream, They released eachothers lips.
"Again" Kurara demanded as they kissed again. They were kissing ignoring everything around them that they didn't notice Takumi and Nozomi looking at them.
"Hehe, that helped alot!" Nozomi said.
"Honestly, I thought it wasn't going to work." Takumi commented.
Nozomi and Takumi waited for the right moment to talk to the couple, Gaku and Kurara stopped kissing and then.
"I know you watching!!! Ju- just come here." Kurara noticed and ordered.
"Sorry, Nozomi wanted to see how it went." Takumi explained.
"I'm sorry, I knew you wouldn't be 100% honest if you didn't have you mask on." Nozomi explained her reason.
Kurara took her mask and putted on.
"You really went too far! And for what!" Kurara shouted flustered and angry.
"Because you haven't kissed Gaku, right?" Nozomi answered.
"Grrr!!!" Kurara went super quiet after that answer.
"So everything, all this was for that?" Takumi commented.
"As ridiculous as it sound, yes." Nozomi said.
".........." Kurara was embarrassed.
".........." Gaku stood quiet knowing commenting something would send him flying.
"Gaku... lets go!" Kurara ordered. "You two come with us, I'll make some curry for you guys!" Kurara shouted.
"Oh really!? Oh yeah!!!" Gaku shouted excited.
"Oh? What's the occasion?" Takumi asked.
"Just something for my two favorite people and you, slave!" Kurara explained.
"Am I the slave here?" Takumi questioned annoyed.
"Hahahaha!" Gaku laughed.
"Come on! Why am I being treated like this!" Takumi complained.
"Don't worry, Takumi." Nozomi took Takumis hand. "You still Takumi to me." Nozomi said blushing.
"Oh" Takumi felt flustered.
"Enjoying yourself, you red horny dog!" Kurara shouted.
"Mmmmm!!!" Takumi tightly held Nozomis hand. Nozomi giggled at Takumis reaction.
Takumi and Nozomi walking together holding hands, they happily looked at eachother. Kurara looked at them, she was jealous and she grabbed Gakus hand tightly.
"I- I- I felt lonely!" Kurara shouted flustered.
"Alright, I understand!" Gaku understood the reason but decided to not tell. He grabbed tightly her soft hand. Kurara will remenber her first kiss as a sign of her vow to Gaku.
