Challenge and Curiosity (1) *

With Chii’s invitation to peek, Kushii took quite a long time before fully understanding what she had just offered. Her eyes blinked in confusion.

Moments later, she gradually leaned closer to get a glimpse of what I was doing underneath the blanket.

“Y-you two…” Kushii’s voice was a breathy whisper as she saw Chii’s hoodie rolled up and my hand and face practically pressing down on her chest.

The girl first attempted to turn her gaze away but somehow, her curiosity won her over.

“Chizuru, I’m not… I mean, I don’t need to see anything.“I’m just sitting here. Watching the movie. That’s all.” She mumbled as her hand covered half of her face, possibly covering her flustered expression.

Her words and actions were contradictory.

Chii’s fingers tightened in my hair, pulling my head up just enough to meet her gaze. I could see the hint of mischief in her eyes as well as challenge and invitation.
