date a live ^The chase^

The chase has started

“Really? Thank you. Then......”

“......!”

Noticing that Shidou was about to take off the grain of rice stuck on his face, Kotori increased the strength used to hold his sleeve down.

“Wah, w-what are you doing?”

“You don’t have to mind......! Wait a second!”

“H-Haa......?”

“I-I’ll......remove it for you......!”

After her outburst, Kotori pressed her body onto Shidou as though attempting to pin him down. Kotori’s body warmth wrapped around Shidou’s right arm.

“Eh......? There’s no need, I can get it myself......”

“Stop right there! Shidou, you just have to stay there and not move!”

“I-I understand......”

Having being overwhelmed by Kotori’s strong insistence, Shidou could only sliently relax his arm in resignation.

“............”

“............”

For a period of time, the two siblings maintained their silence, quietly letting time flow past them.

The ticking sounds of the clock at that moment seemed so loud.

A lot of time passed, Kotori seemed to have thought of something, she started to write words on Shidou’s palm with her fingers.......it made his palm ticklish.

“Hey, are you alright? I have to go and wash the dishes already......Tohka and the rest should be back by now as well......”

“......!”

Hearing Shidou’s words, Kotori’s body gave a jolt.

After that she grit her teeth as though she had made a decision, slowly turning her face towards Shidou. For some reason, her face was as red as a beetroot, her eyes were bloodshot as though she had been crying.

“K-Kotori?”

“......I’ll get that for you, so you......you have to close your eyes.”

“Huh? Why do I have to——”

“Ignore that!”

Kotori used a hand to cover Shidou’s eyes, forcefully sealing off Shidou’s vision.

“Wah!?”

“Don’t move a muscle!”

Kotori’s furious voice could be heard from the darkness.

After all that, he heard the sounds of his chair being leaned on as well as the rustling of fabric. He also heard the sound of her swallowing——

“Hm......?”

In the next instant, Shidou‘s cheek felt a strange sensation as something made contact with him. From the situation just now that should be Kotori’s fingers......But it somehow didn’t feel that way. That’s right. It was much softer and more moist than just fingers——

After that happened, his sealed eyes were finally released.

Looking to his right, Kotori was making a victory sign with a blushing face for some odd reason, she was also mumbling something to herself in a small voice.

“......Alright, if it’s like this, then Onii-chan will be mine......”

“Kotori?”

“......! W-w-w-w-w-w-what!”
