Chapter 6
Kotori woke up to the sound of rain. She got up and went to her closet and decided what to wear. She finally decided to put on a green shirt and a gray skirt. You're friend is a vampire. Kotori recalled those words. Stupid Honoka....Why didn't she tell me? I really thought she trusted me.. It's been a while since I've talked to her though it was me who distanced myself. Kotori looked out her window and saw Honoka at the front of her yard. She ran downstairs and out the door. "What are you doing here?" Honoka sighed. "You have talked to me? Is it because...you know about me..." Kotori sighed. "Wait...how do you know I know?" "Nozomi said she saw that...that mutt told you' Kotori then got angry. "Don't you dare call Umi-chan a mutt! She was only telling me a story!" Honoka got mad as well. "Well it's her fault you won't talk to me!" Kotori sighed. " I distanced myself but not because of Umi-chan or because I was scared of you" She paused and saw that Honoka calmed down and had a confused expression. She then continued, "It's because you didn't tell me.... do you not trust me?" "Yes it's just...I didn't want you to be scared of me and leave...I really like you Kotori.. I'm just scared I can't control myself around you" Honoka said. Kotori stared at her. "Well just know you haven't lost me..I used to have a big crush on you but.." Honoka looked at her. "But?" Kotori bit her bottom lip."I've been with Umi-chan lately and she's been nothing but kind and caring towards me. I just don't know if I should choose you or her. So I can't really say anything to you yet." Honoka looked away. "Though I do accept you as you are" Kotori said with a smile. "I'm dangerous Kotori" Honoka said. "You're really not if you really were you would have already sucked my blood" Kotori answered. Honoka smiled and gave Kotori a hug. Kotori hugged her back. Unknown to them in the forest was Umi. She was in her half werewolf form and she was smiling. "Hey Umi why are you smiling?" Maki asked her. "I have a chance with her Maki... and I won't give up until she chooses me. Now let's go Maki" Umi said as she as she turned into a full wolf while Maki did the same and they ran off into the forest.
Kotori was walking out of the school with Eva and Sabrina. "Hey Kotori how did you manage to befriend the most stubborn people ever?" Eva asked. "What do you mean?" Kotori answered. "You know Umi, Honoka, and their friends?" Sabrina said. "Well I don't know I guess some people just need to be talked to you know" Kotori said as she smiled. "Kotori" Kotori turned around as someone called her. "Oh what is it Nico?" Nico then gave her a note. "It's from Umi-chan" Nico said before she added. "Don't screw this up" Then she left. Kotori opened it up.
Meet me in forest by my house. I will be in the meadow. ~ Umi
"I have to go" Kotori said as she ran. She went to Umi's house. She then went into the forest by her house. She walked and walked until she reached the meadow and sure enough Umi was there. "Oh you came" Umi said. Kotori smiled at her. "Of course...Is something wrong?" Kotori said as she got closer to Umi until she was in front of her. "I just wanted to do something..I hope you don't mind" Umi responded. Before Kotori could speak Umi cupped her cheek and kissed her. Kotori's eyes widened but then relaxed as she leaned in. This feels magical.... Umi's lips are soft... she's being gentle...it feels magical..wait...this is my first kiss! Kotori pulled away. Umi looked at her. "Is something wrong?" She asked. Kotori shook her head. "No nothing at all it's just...you gave me my first kiss" Kotori responded. "Oh I'm sorry that was shameless of me" Umi said as she looked away embarrassed. "Don't be...Was that you're first kiss too?" Kotori asked. "Yes...was it bad?" Umi responded. "No...it was magical" Kotori said as she smiled. Umi smiled back. "It's getting late you should get going" Umi said. Kotori nodded. "Okay see you later Umi-chan!" She said as she walked home. She opened the door and was greeted by her mom. "Kotori where have you been?" She asked worried. "Oh I was with Umi-chan. I'm sorry I didn't tell you mom" Kotori said. "Well change out and come back for dinner" Her mom said as she looked more calm. Kotori went up and changed into a grey shirt and some black leggings. She smiled as she recalled Umi's kiss. She then went down to eat with her mom. After dinner she went to bed.
