Kali stared blankly into Asui's eyes. It was not that she didn't know what was going on. She had seen people doing much more than kissing, but this was her first time actually kissing someone. And it was her squishy! Her mind was completely blank.
Asui was also in a blank state of mind. She had only wanted to turn and say something to Kali, which ended up with her mouth slightly open as her lips pushed against Kali's. With her lips pressed against Kali's, she suddenly felt this strange feeling welling up inside her. Her heart was beating faster and faster, and at the same time, she did not seem to hate what was happening.
Both girls just sat there with their lips pressed against each other. Kali's grip slightly tightened around Asui's waist. The two stared at each other for a full minute before they finally reacted and moved their faces away from each other. Asui stared at Kali in a panic, unsure what she should say, as her cheeks turned bright red. "I…. I didn't mean…."
Kali reached up and touched her lips as she looked at the panicking Squishy in front of her. After a few seconds, she shook her head and smiled: "It's fine… It wasn't unpleasant… In fact, I kind of liked it." Kali said honestly, her cheeks growing red as well.
"Ah!?" Asui never expected Kali to say that and lowered her head. She was still in Kali's embrace, which she found to be perfectly normal. They had only just met recently, yet they were so close that it was strange. She had strangely accepted Kali's skinship to be something that was natural. After trying to come to terms with everything, Asui raised her head and, with blushed cheeks, said: "I didn't hate it either…."
Both girls stared at each other in awkward silence, and before they knew it, their lips touched once more. It was nothing more than lips against lips, but they did not seem to mind as they closed their eyes and enjoyed the moment. This was not a kiss of love but more of two girls who did not hate the fact of kissing each other.
This next kiss lasted a lot longer, and when they parted, they both grinned from ear to ear bashfully. Kali rubbed her nose as she said: "You can take a bath first. You can use one of my shirts to sleep in."
Kali scooted back and stood up on her bed before hopping off and going to her dresser to pull out a long shirt. She herself also wore long shirts to bed. Her room had its own bath, which also had its own washer and dryer. She never allowed her clothes to get mixed in with the shitty old man's, nor did she let him wash her clothes. Even since young, she was always this way. However, she did do the shitty old man's laundry for him all the time.
After getting the shirt and some underwear, she handed them to Asui and said: "Take this. You can toss your uniform into the washer. I will wash them with mine after I get out of the bath.."
"Okay, thanks…." Asui was having a hard time looking Kali in the eye, but when she did and saw how Kali was acting like normal, she felt much better.
After bathing, the girls sat on the bed. This time Kali was leaning up against the headrest with Asui leaning against her. There was an awkward silence between the two, even though they were sitting like this as if it was normal. "So, I guess your trust in me has grown a bit more now?" Kali asked. She did not like the silence.
"I guess. To be honest, I never thought my first kiss would be with a girl…." Asui really never expected her first kiss to not only be an accident but also with another girl.
"Me neither. Although, if you think about it, our lips are always close together when I energize my squishy, so it was bound to happen sooner or later." Kali only thought about this now, but there was always a chance of this happening.
"That is true." Asui agreed. She let out a sigh and leaned back into Kali's chest, tilting her head ever so slightly to look up at her. "I guess that means you might end up kissing many girls from now on."
"Maybe. But my number one squishy will always be you. Now I have a second way to charge my squishy battery." Kali teased, causing Asui's cheeks to grow bright red, but she did not say Kali could not do it.
Right now, Kali was quite happy. She had become even closer with her first friend. However, she did wonder if friends should be kissing. She was not dumb after all. She knew the kissing they had just done was the kind lovers would do. Not a quick peck on the cheek that friends or family would do. But since she liked it, she did not see a reason to quit.
"Let's turn in. We still have to get up for school tomorrow." Kali suggested, which Asui agreed upon. After the lights went out, Kali once more kissed Asui before clinging to her and falling asleep. Asui, on the other hand, took a while to fall asleep. But as she did, she snuggled into Kali's embrace with a smile on her face as she softly spoke: "Ribbit…"
