[Monika always did tend to be the one of the two that initiated things more often. Though Natsuru made no secret about how positively she responded, even if she was nervous about reciprocating at first.
It never gets old, either. They already spend so much time together, more intimately than Natsuru ever thought was possible before taking... certain steps in their relationship. But she never fails to get flustered at a glimpse or a touch, or an affectionate message.
Checking her watch, she's met with the enticing image of Monika in her modern, very out of place in Aefenglom, school uniform, from an amazingly flattering angle that shows off quite a lot of her charm points. Even if her eyes weren't drawn to the half-undone shirt and the proud display of cleavage, there's a generous view of stocking-clad thigh as well.
It's never a secret from Monika when Natsuru feels that rush of flustered admiration of her, either. Not with their Bond giving each other some sense of how they're feeling, no matter where they are. The blue-haired fae must be making quite a spectacle of herself, gasping and getting all red in the face while clutching her watch to her chest for a moment.]
Monika! I'm outside! Someone else might have seen you!
[She loves seeing her girlfriend looking hot, but she is still not good at this new thing of theirs yet.]
[Really, Monika just couldn't get enough of not only teasing Natsuru, but exploring her more adventurous side with her. Her girlfriend was really the only one that ever saw Monika like this, a sign of not only how much she loved her, but also trusted her as well.
And with Natsuru enjoying these advances, well, what reason did she have to stop herself?]
I'm not too worried about that. I knew that you'd be careful.
Besides.
You already have me all to yourself.
[Some may have been more poly-amorous in their relationships, and that was fine. But Monika wanted only one other person.]
[It hasn't taken long for Natsuru to get somewhere she can at least feel a little less like she's publicly ogling sexy pictures of her girlfriend. Nope, instead, she's now quietly appreciating sexy pictures of Monika. Big difference, in her mind.]
Yeah. I know.
[Not long after, her own photo follows. It's less racy than Monika's, showing a closeup of Natsuru smiling and flashing a v-sign at the camera. She's still not good at this... but she at least wanted the picture to be cute if it couldn't be sexy...]
[It doesn't matter if it isn't racy or if Natsuru thinks it's not as "good" as the one she'd just received. Monika thinks is absolutely perfect, and adorable.
[Ah... she's looking forward to seeing Monika again already. She does feel a little pleased at how they're able to stay in touch like this, and send each other pictures whenever they want. But nothing beats being able to express her feelings in person.
Maybe that swelling of affection is why she feels a little unusually bold right now. A few moments later, she sends another message.]
Hey, you're home, right? Can you meet me at the door?
[Whether or not Natsuru feels bold, Monika really just loves her exactly the way she is. She's learned the circumstances behind her body and feminine appearance, and even that did nothing to change how she felt.
Natsuru has offered the same to her, still staying with her even knowing more about her past.
Being accepted as she was... It was merely one of the many reasons she loved her.
Ah, but it is a little unusual that Natsuru would ask to meet her like this. She wondered what it was all about?]
[Ever since she and Monika both confessed their feelings, Natsuru's been uncertain about some things. She'd never really considered being with someone as a girl. She even actively fought against it back home. But, looking back, it doesn't feel like she ever truly felt for Sakura the way she does about Monika now. And besides, back then she still had other options. It's not as if she can do anything about being a girl now.
If that's so, then why should she be so embarrassed sometimes about doing things normal girlfriends do? Why shouldn't she be as affectionate as Monika, without being led into it most of the time?
Maybe it's that mischievous fae side coming out a bit. Coming up to the apartment door, she knocks instead of entering.]
Monika?
[She calls in, just to make sure Monika knows it's her. As soon as the door opens, and she sees her girlfriend standing there...
Natsuru quickly steps in close, tilting her head up to meet her taller girlfriend's gaze. Her hand alights on Monika's shoulder, gripping gently. She quickly gets up on her tiptoes with an absent little flutter of her wings, and leans in to press a soft, gentle kiss to Monika's lips.
The kiss lasts only a moment, but Natsuru doesn't back away from Monika at all. Her blush glows faintly all over as her eyes meet Monika's again. When she speaks, her voice comes out in a breathy little whisper.]
[There had been a change in Monika ever since she'd begun this relationship with Natsuru. Her outlook seemed brighter, and her overall demeanor more cheerful It was no surprise that she thought about her practically every day.
Almost all the time, even. Just being with her was enough to lift her spirits.
And it was that same continuous focus on her girlfriend that helped to push out her more negative thoughts.
Before, she would have days when she just... wouldn't get out of bed. But now that she had Natsuru, well...
Monika wanted to push through, and make herself better. For her.]
Hi Natsuru!
[The kiss itself isn't a surprise, considering how affecting they already are. What surprises Monika is not only how the kiss is initiated, but natural it all felt. Her hands go around her girlfriends waist as Monika just loses herself in the fae's warmth.
Home.
The love of her life was home.
And her home... was with Natsuru.]
Welcome home.
[Her voice matches Natsuru, with Monika gently pressing her forehead against the other girl's.]
Did you, um... have anything else you were going to do outside today?
So much of this is what Natsuru used to be so resistant to back home. Being held in these arms, acutely feeling the curves of her own body against Monika's... gazing up into her eyes like this. She feels like the meek heroine in a romantic movie, held gently but firmly by a cool, beautiful type. She's never felt more like a girl in her life. Not that she's particularly more feminine in comparison to Monika, but they complement each other, in a way it feels only two girls can.
It's not the first time she's felt this way, but it is the first time she's actively chosen to place herself in this role. Monika gives her so many chances to be affectionate in return, but she wants to get better at expressing her feelings unbidden too. So she chose today to play the part of the loving girlfriend to the absolute utmost she could manage. The overwhelming thing is how happy she is to be here, like this, feeling undeniably like a girl in love.
She feels her face heat up as Monika presses her forehead against hers. She must be blushing... Monika could probably feel the warmth from her...]
Huh? [It takes a beat for her to catch up with what Monika said.] Oh, um... no, not really. I'm all yours.
She didn't necessarily say anything in response, and instead simply kissed her girlfriend in return. Monika's noticed the blush, but it's so expected at this point that it barely even registers for her. She takes her chance after the kiss and leads the fae girl back into the bedroom.
Their bedroom, rather.
She undreses Natsuru, and in turn asks to be undressed by her before the two lay on the bed.
Monika just wants to be with her, plain and simple.
And what's a good way of being with someone than cuddling up with them?]
