Day 44: Sun Room (4th Shift)
As soon as she had the chance, Sheena ninja'd herself out of the cafeteria and away from the conversation she'd been semi-forced to have. She probably could have just clammed up and told the boys to go away, but she'd kind of owed at least Endrance some kind of explanation. It wasn't everyday the embodiment of darkness pops up and delivers a

Soubi had been in situations like this before, but it...he was almost certain Sheena wasn't about to confess feelings for him. If she was? Well, he could do with the laugh.
He frowned and flicked her hands away from the bell. "Somebody afraid of losing track of you?" he asked. He'd have liked to have referred to her as a cow, but she looked more like a kitten so he decided to leave it at that. For now.
"Something's different about you," he said, looking at her with an artists eye. Sure he picked up details, but he generally ignored things that weren't Ritsuka, so it was hard to work out what it was.

"It's different for everyone. We all like different things, after all. Of course.... I've never disappointed," he smirked. "I'm sure you'll soon find what's right for both of you. of course... if you're really worried...." Soubi faked a yawn and stretched his arms upwards before lowering one around her shoulder, smiling.

She didn't like Soubi like that, but she was really worried that she wasn't any good. And Soubi just said he was, so he'd tell her if she was doing it wrong, right? There'd be no harm in this since it was for educational purposes. She was aware that it was okay for friends to kiss. She just never had much of a reason to.
"I am. This is just... awkward." Sheena bit her bottom lip in thought.
Could she do this? Maybe she should just let things be and hope Yukari would have a moment of compassion if the ninja sucked at kissing and only tell her when it was just the two of them. Maybe she could go on not knowing and be content with that. Except she knew she absolutely could not do that. She wanted to know.
"I just want an assessment," she said, shifting a bit toward Soubi and putting a hesitant hand to his cheek. "And if you tease me about this later, I will hurt you. Got that?"
Reply
"How much later are we talking?" he asked. Before she could answer, he continued. "Close you're eyes," he whispered, moving in. She had to be relaxed or it was no good. Fine for the first kiss, understandable, but after that... no.
Soubi pressed his lips to Sheena's and kissed her. Just a gentle kiss for now, no tongues, simply exploring and sucking her lips. Purely sweet and innoc- well, not innocent, you wouldn't kiss your sister like that.... It was... a disney kiss.

It felt weird. This was Soubi. Yet, she wasn't going to back down now that it had started. She needed to know. Once she got used to the fact that she was kissing Soubi, the ninja decided to just go with the kiss despite the weirdness. It's not like it was a bad sensation.

If this was Yukari, what would you do? she asked herself.
Lips separated and the ninja invited Soubi to move the kiss along, brushing his tongue with her own as it passed by. Her hand slid along his cheek until the tips of her fingers rest against his neck, just above the ever-present bandages, just behind his ear, while her thumb brushed along his jaw.

He deepened the kiss when Sheena had given in to it and then slowly, gently, pulled away, leaving her with a few last pecks and tugs on the lip. With that, he pulled his arm from her and... stuck the tip of his tongue out, picking at it confused, as though it had some fluff on it. Unable to keep up the teasing, he smiled and elbowed her. "You're good. You just need to get to know each other."

Something was missing.
Her eyes opened when the kiss ended and she realized what it was when she found herself looking into a pair of normal eyes behind glasses.
Yukari. She was what was missing.
"Huh. That was..." She then noticed what Soubi was doing. "H-Hey! Stop that!" She put both hands on Soubi's chest and shoved him indignantly.
"Good to know that when I said I had no interest in you, I really meant it," she replied, still feeling kind of weird. But then she smiled; he said she was good. "Despite the weirdness of it being, you know, you - thanks." She felt a little more confident now.

Grabbing the wrist of the offending hand, the ninja yanked it out from under her shirt and used her skill to easily slip out from underneath Soubi and turn the tables on him. Ending up with his arm twisted behind his back and the ninja's knee pressing solidly into his lower back, Sheena leaned down and growled, "You don't have permission to put your hands there. That privilege does not belong to you, Soubi."
After a moment, she let go, not wanting to break his arm. "You're lucky I like you," she said with an irritated sigh before flopping down on top of his back.
Reply
"I dread to think what you'd have done to somebody you don't like," Soubi tried to laugh. He made himself comfortable, head resting on his arms. "Hmm, maybe you like me more than you let on. Anyway, who told you I like it rough?"

Yukari did what any sensible person would and hid behind a couch, peeping over the top at the pair, a smirk on her face. She would have killed to know what led to this surprise turn of events, but for now was content to just spy and giggle madly. Eventually they pulled away and it seemed whatever it had been was over, but then Soubi was pushing the ninja down... now, now, she was going to actually get jealous at ( ... )

She shifted a bit on Soubi's back to get more comfortable when a very familiar giggle reached her ears. No. No. Nooooooo! Nonono! This was not how she wanted to encounter Yukari after... after... the whole thing the previous night. And with what the youkai actually said, she might have seen...
"Y-Yukari!"
Hopefully it was only the little wrestling match that lasted a total of two seconds. Regardless, the ninja flushed and sat up so fast she overbalanced and flopped quite un-ninja-like onto her back. Putting an arm over her eyes, she said, "You know, I'm going to count to ten and when I look again, there's not going to be a sneaky youkai teasing me."

While Soubi knew of Yukari, he didn't know her. And, it wasn't that he was shy, but he felt a little closed up around new people. Still, this was a way to get at Sheena who'd just fallen off his back.
He stayed where he was and smiled up pleasantly.
"Well, trying to."
He looked over his shoulder at Sheena. "You want me all for yourself?"
Reply
"I don't think you'd make a very good prophet," she replied pleasantly to the implied threat. "Because that's one prediction that's not coming true."
She seated herself on the floor besides them and returned Soubi's smile with a little wave in greeting.
"Persistence," she advised him. "It takes a while to get through those ninja defenses of hers."
