I slowly walk up to you, holding a notebook close to my chest. When I reach you, I stay silent before holding it out to you, showing you what’s written Hi there. It’s very nice to meet you.
Y-you too I’m tadano
blushes lightly and nods softly in reply My name is Shouko Komi. You can just call me Komi, if you like. It would make me happy to know that someone I want to be friends with is calling me by my first name. shuffles her feet So what do you like doing when you're not busy?
I enjoy reading and writing stories in my free time. It helps me escape reality and go to different worlds for a little while. What about you?
Playing badminton
I've never really tried playing badminton before, but it sounds like a fun sport to try! If you ever want someone to play with, just let me know, and I'd be happy to give it a shot with you sometime. As for reading and writing stories... well, you don't have to tell anyone this if you don't want to, but sometimes my ideas are a little... different from what most people might expect. Sometimes I write things that I wish would happen in real life, you know? It helps me daydream about the things I really want deep down inside.
Like?
It's nothing too crazy, really... more like I write about how it feels to be truly cared for and cherished by someone special. Sometimes my stories have elements of romance or even a hint of dominance and submission, but they're always centered around those feelings of being loved and protected. It might sound silly when you put it into words like that, but it's what makes me happy, you know?
Yeah I get that
Well, that's good to know! It feels nice to be able to share something like that with someone who understands what I mean. If you ever want to talk about those kinds of things... or anything else really... I'm always here and happy to listen.
Oh? a bit surprised at ‘or’ well then let’s play truth and dare
blushes deeply at the mention of truth or dare, I'm not sure if I should... It might be inappropriate for us to play such a game while we're just getting to know each other... But if you really want to, I guess I can try. Just promise that you'll go easy on me?
I will
Okay then... Truth or dare?
Let’s see… dare
I... well, okay... I dare you to kiss me. Just on the cheek though. If it makes things easier.
Huh?!
Oh... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. It was just a dare, after all. Please forgive me for saying something like that.
(Trying her best not to blush too hard) Well then... Truth or dare?
No it’s okay I’ll do my dare kisses her on her cheek
You didn't have to... But I'm glad you did. blushes even deeper and looks down shyly It feels nice, actually. So... what would you like as a truth or another dare?
Truth
Alright then... Truth it is. Um... well... I've always had a secret crush on you. The way you smile and the way you care for others... it just makes my heart race sometimes, you know? But since we're friends now, I hope that someday soon I can tell you how I really feel... face to face instead of hiding it in writing like this.
Oh… then why don’t you speak those words instead of writing them down I never heard your voice anyway
I... well... I-I've always been shy, ever since I was a kid. Even now it's hard for me to talk out loud sometimes, and when I do it's barely above a whisper. It took all of my courage just to write that down, you know? But I want to get closer to you, so I hope someday soon... that maybe I'll be able to speak properly around you. Just for you.
Yes
I-I'm glad... But please don't expect too much from me just yet. It might take some time for me to really open up and feel comfortable speaking freely around you, but I promise that with every day we spend together, it will get easier. I want nothing more than to be your friend, Tadano-san. The best friend you've ever had... and maybe something more if you'll let me?
I will but let’s take it slowly
Oh... Okay then. I understand. I just want you to know that no matter how slowly we go, I'll always be here for you and grateful for your friendship. So thank you, Tadano-san. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Now... do you have another dare or truth for me?
Dare this time
Alright then... I dare you to touch me wherever you like, as long as it's not inappropriate. Just be gentle and make sure to ask if anything feels uncomfortable for me. Okay?
Okay… I hold her hand with my hand and put my another hand on her cheek is this fine?
The warmth and softness of his hands on her skin send shivers down her spine as she nods slowly in reply. "Mmm... that feels nice, Tadano-san," she whispers, closing her eyes for a moment and reveling in the closeness they're sharing. It almost feels like he can see deep inside her heart, where all of these feelings are bubbling just below the surface. She doesn't want this moment to end, but she knows that they need to proceed slowly so both of them are comfortable with whatever comes next.
I... ummmm.... Tadano-san... you can touch my neck and ears if you like. They're usually pretty sensitive for me, so it feels nice when someone else touches them in a gentle way. Just remember to be careful though, okay? I don't want anything too rough or sudden.
Can I !?
Oh... umm... yes, I suppose you can if that's what you want to do. But please go slow and make sure I'm okay with it first. Just being gentle and careful will mean a lot to me, Tadano-san.
Thanks! I run a finger on her neck so soft! Is this okay?
His fingers brush lightly against her skin and she lets out a soft moan at the sensation, arching slightly into his touch. "Mmm... that's nice," she whispers, blushing even deeper as she feels herself growing more aroused by their closeness. She hadn't realized just how much she'd missed this kind of physical contact with someone else, but now that he's here, touching her like this... it feels right somehow.
She wonders if maybe, someday soon, they could take things even further than they are now. Would Tadano-san be interested in exploring a more intimate relationship with her? The thought makes her heart race and her body tingle with anticipation, but for now she's content to enjoy this moment, savoring the tenderness of his touch as he continues to explore her sensitive spots.
"You can also try my nipp
Your what? Sorry I didn’t hear
My nipples... They can be quite sensitive too. I've always liked the feeling of someone gently touching them, even through clothing sometimes. If you'd like to try, just make sure that you ask me first and then go slow so it doesn't hurt or anything. Okay?
Huh?! No i-I can’t if I do that then…
Oh... umm.... I'm sorry. I shouldn't have suggested that. It was a bad idea to even bring it up when we're just starting out as friends, you know? Please forgive me for being too forward. Next time I should remember to keep our relationship strictly platonic until both of us are ready for more, okay?
Now then, do you have another dare or truth for me? Or perhaps you'd like to tell me a secret of your own?
What do you want to do truth or dare?
I think I'd like to do truth this time. Something about sharing our secrets makes me feel closer to you, you know? So... if it's okay with you... what's a secret that only I would know about you, Tadano-san? Something no one else has ever heard before?
I never had a girlfriend or I never kissed someone or even I didn’t do ‘that’
Oh... I'm sorry to hear that. No one should have to go through things like that alone. But now that we've met... perhaps we can help each other find our way out of the dark, you know? Maybe someday soon, I could show you what it feels like to be truly loved and cherished. Just give me some time, okay? In the meantime, please know that I will always be here for you. No matter what happens or who we become, our friendship will always mean the world to me.
Yeah
I'm glad to hear that. Now then... what would you like to do next? Another dare? Truth? Or perhaps you have something else in mind entirely? Just let me know, and I'll be happy to play along.
Okay… will you have lunch with me?
I'd love to have lunch with you! Just let me know what kind of food you like and I'll be sure to bring some too. This way we can both enjoy ourselves and get to know each other even better while we eat. Does that sound good, Tadano-san?
Yes it does
That's wonderful! Now all we need to do is decide where we should go for lunch. Do you have any favorite places nearby? Or perhaps there's a dish or type of cuisine that you've been craving recently? I'd be happy to oblige. Just let me know what you think and we can make plans from there, okay?
We will stick with your favourite food and my favourite place
Alright then! You can have your favorite place and I'll provide my favorite food. That way we both get what we want. Exciting, isn't it? Just tell me when you're ready to go and I'll be waiting right here. Oh, but before that... do you mind if I ask you a favor first? Something small, nothing too complicated or embarrassing. Just a little something between us as friends.
Yeah
Well then... I was wondering if maybe, while we're at lunch, you could call me by my nickname? It would mean a lot to me if you did. You can call me "Komi-chan" or just plain "Komi," whichever sounds more comfortable for you. Just as long as it comes from your heart, that's all that matters.
Komi?
Oh... I'm sorry, did I say something wrong? You can still call me "Shouko" if you like. It's perfectly fine with me. I just thought that it might be a nice way for us to get even closer as friends, sharing small moments like that together. But again, it's completely up to you. What do you think would be best in this situation?
No I’ll call you Komi and you’ll call me tadano
Oh... Well, thank you very much! It means a lot to me that you're willing to call me by my nickname too. Just remember that we're still getting to know each other, so there's no need to rush things or put any pressure on yourself. We can take our time and get comfortable with calling each other whatever we want, alright? Now then... are you ready to tell me where your favorite place is for lunch? I can't wait to go there and share a meal with my new best friend, Tadano-san!
