1 Author's Notes: This is a short Nadeshiko/Sonomi fic, because, in my humble | |
2 opinion, they make an absolutely beautiful couple. ^_^ This is mostly a | |
3 Somoni sketch of sorts, but I hope you enjoy it. Please email me and tell me | |
4 what you thought! | |

31 "Sonomi...." | |
32 | |
33 She saw Nadeshiko's lips moving, pale coral parting to reveal that small | |
34 pink tongue. Words reached her eyes, sung in the other girl's gentle, high | |
35 soprano; but Sonomi had been staring far too long at the whole of | |
36 Nadeshiko's china pale to register that her cousin was actually saying. | |
37 | |
38 "Sonomi..." | |
39 | |
40 Nadeshiko's pretty face fell to an expression of worry, her opal eyes | |
41 focused more closely on Sonomi. The older girl felt a light, tingling warmth | |
42 at the base of her spine, a typical symptom when she was the focus of | |
43 Nadeshiko's attention. The pale girl leaned forward, bright eyes still | |
44 worried; and in the swirling mix of her half-reality daydream, Sonomi leaned | |
45 in too. | |
46 "Are you feeling alright, Sonomi?" | |
47 | |
48 It was a rather rude awakening when she felt only Nadeshiko's cool hand | |
49 against her suddenly burning forehead. | |
50 "My, you ARE rather warm," Nadeshiko murmured, absently brushing away | |
51 a | |
52 stray lock of Sonomi's hair. | |
53 "I'm fine!" the older girl sputtered, a feeling off horror sliding | |
54 down her | |
55 back, curling through her ribs and around her heart. She looked at Nadeshiko | |
56 with wide, horrified eyes of sapphire, before her fear melted into a feeling | |
57 of annoyance. 'That's the third time this week,' she though, thin, | |
58 unartistic fingers coming up to massage her temple. 'Damn.' | |
59 "Are you sure?" opal eyes narrowed, framed with ebony and utterly | |
60 enchanting in their bland attempt at disbelief. | |
61 "Very sure," Sonomi nodded affirmatively, lips moving in a smile she | |
62 only | |
63 willed herself to feel. | |
64 "Oh, what if you *are* ill?" Nadeshiko wailed melodramatically. | |
65 Mischief | |
66 was written in her lithe form as she gasped in horror, "What if you have | |
67 some mysterious disease from Africa!? What if there isn't a cure... Sonomi | |
68 don't leave me!!" The smaller girl tossed herself into Sonomi's lap, | |
69 'weeping' onto her cousin's shoulder. There was a moment, stilled, when | |
70 Sonomi felt that her bones had melted into her flesh, so that she might | |
71 better focus on the feeling of Nadeshiko's breath on her neck, and | |
72 Nadeshiko's little heart fluttering inside her breast, and Nadeshiko's soft | |
73 hair and.... | |
74 "Nadeshiko..." Sonomi gasped out, feeling that if she didn't say | |
75 *something*, didn't take the glory rising up inside her and shove it into a | |
76 word that it might travel through her blood and make her do something | |
77 (wonderful, wonderful) stupid. 'Nadeshiko' was the only word that could hold | |
78 such feelings and not turn in on itself. The younger girl giggled, but | |
79 Sonomi didn't hear it, instead feeling the delicate vibration against her | |
80 neck. Then it, and the all-consuming cloud of Nadeshiko and wide pink skirts | |
81 vanished, returning to the other end of the picnic blanket. Nadeshiko's face | |
82 still held a carefully made expression of vexation, but there was a naughty | |
83 light in her eyes that made Sonomi giggle despite herself. | |
84 "See, now you're all better!" Nadeshiko chirped happily, "No | |
85 strange | |
86 African diseases for my Sonomi-chan, nuh-uh!" The mock-gravity in her | |
87 cousin's words only made Sonomi laugh harder. | |
88 "Thank you," she said between giggles, "I needed that." | |
89 "You certainly did," Nadeshiko said seriously, "For a minute you | |
90 looked | |
91 like the world was going to end." | |
92 'Iie,' Sonomi thought, feeling chilled in the shade of the tall elm, | |
93 'You're the end of the world.' The tenderness in her mind soothed the words, | |
94 but did nothing to combat the sudden bout of sadness that colored them. | |
95 "Well it's not," she replied with an air of authority, "At least | |
96 not today. | |
97 Let's finish up and get going. Don't you have a shoot this afternoon?" | |
98 "Probably," Nadeshiko said, reaching into the picnic basket for the | |
99 container of cherries. After struggling with the lid, she popped it open and | |
100 plucked out a cherry, holding it above her mouth and batting at it with her | |
101 tongue. | |
102 "You're so silly, Nadeshiko-chan," Sonomi grinned, giggling when the | |
103 other | |
104 girl paused in her game and crossed her eyes. She looked like a kitten | |
105 caught playing with string. | |
106 "That's why you love me!" Nadeshiko said, eyes candid. | |
107 "Though heaven knows how I manage it," Sonomi forced past the beating | |
108 of | |
109 her heart. She leaned over and picked out a cherry, eating it quickly. | |
110 Nadeshiko just rolled her eyes. | |
111 | |
112 | |
113 "I don't see why we can't just stay out here all day," Nadeshiko | |
114 pouted as | |
115 they folded up the blanket and placed the empty containers in the basket. | |
116 "You have a shoot later on," Sonomi reminded her politely. She | |
117 thought | |
118 perhaps her brain needed a few moments of Nadeshiko-less lucidity. | |
119 "I know," the other girl stretched her pale arms and yawned like a | |
120 cat, | |
121 "But I just... I don't know, I want to *do* something today." Unable | |
122 to | |
123 think of anything uncompromising to day, Sonomi simply shrugged. | |
124 "Oh, come on," Nadeshiko sang, spreading her arms as if to embrace | |
125 the | |
126 world and Sonomi in it, "Let's just stay a little while longer." Her | |
127 slim, | |
128 elegant hands captured Sonomi's, whirling her around in and endless circle | |
129 of color and shadow. The scenery blurred, Nadeshiko was the only clear | |
130 thing, smiling and laughing.... | |
131 | |
132 Without warning (as, Sonomi reflected, most of Nadeshiko's accidents were), | |
133 the pale girl's foot slipped and sent the two cousins tumbling down the soft | |
134 slope, and blinding whirl of gray, brown, pink skirts and blue slacks. | |
135 Nadeshiko shrieked and shrieked, but to Sonomi's ears it sounded as if she | |
136 was enjoying it. They rolled to the bottom of the hill, the older girl | |
137 pressed against the softness of the younger, having landed on top. | |
138 "Are you alright?" the question burst from Sonomi. Nadeshiko lay | |
139 still | |
140 beneath her, eyes closed and face serene. | |
141 "Hai," the other girl murmured dreamily, eyes still closed, | |
142 "That was fun." | |
143 For a brief, paranoid moment, Sonomi considered that Nadeshiko was | |
144 deliberately plotting, trying to force her to act the sweet impulses | |
145 flooding through her veins. | |
146 "Nadeshiko..." Sonomi's tone was suddenly sharp. She braced her | |
147 weight on | |
148 her arms, afraid to crush the delicate china doll beneath even her slight | |
149 weight. | |
150 "You're really warm, Sonomi-chan," sweet coral lips moving again, so | |
151 close, | |
152 and Sonomi felt herself once again drawn into the spell. There was no | |
153 fighting it. All awareness suddenly flowed to her breasts, pressed against | |
154 Nadeshiko's own full ones. The other girl's pink sun dress had slipped off | |
155 her shoulders, revealing only soft ivory skin. Sonomi imagined it, the whole | |
156 of Nadeshiko's flesh, covering the other girl's body with delicious satin. | |
157 Her hands throbbed into protest from supporting all her weight, and against | |
158 her will, Sonomi let herself lay more fully against Nadeshiko. The pale | |
159 girl's face was calm and still, ebony lashes fanned against her cheeks, | |
160 breathing light and airy. And then those small, full lips, naturally pink, | |
161 and the warm cavern of Nadeshiko's mouth beyond their barrier. Sonomi | |
162 thought desperately, trying to evade the ideas flooding her. | |
163 | |
164 .... she could reach down and brush Nadeshiko's soft cheek. | |
165 .... or gather her up and cradle her, pretend that she though Nadeshiko was | |
166 hurt. | |
167 .... maybe she could cup Nadeshiko's pretty face, bring her lips down on | |
168 the other girl's. Those lips would be warm and clinging, and somehow Sonomi | |
169 might lift Nadeshiko into a sitting position, lean over her, thrust her own | |
170 tongue into the other girl's mouth, run it along those pearly teeth, melt or | |
171 shatter into a million tiny pieces reflecting only Nadeshiko, Nadeshiko.... | |
172 | |
173 "You're really warm, Sonomi," the pale girl said quietly, opening | |
174 those | |
175 moon-opal eyes, her voice worried. Sonomi quickly removed her weight, | |
176 standing up and helping Nadeshiko to her feet. Once again, a slim pale hand | |
177 came up to touch the other girl's forehead, feeling for a temperature. "Are | |
178 you sure you're alright?" Sweet, innocent. | |
179 "I'll be fine," Sonomi's voice was strangled, "Someday." | |
180 | |
181 She really wasn't sure how much had happened. | |
182 | |
