Even though it was already getting late, I managed to enjoy the pace of the night. I considered the control of everything to be perfect, getting just enough work done in enough time to shower at the end. As I made my way into the bathroom with a towel in hand, I started stripping down in front of the mirror, forgetting to account for one tiny thing...
"Nice! You have a nice body for someone who hates workouts."
"Wha— Lumina?!" The shock of her presence made me wince, my eyes still in the mirror reflecting myself. She waited until I was completely naked to let me know she was still around. I had somehow forgotten that Lumina was passively hanging out with me in the background, quietly enough for me to not notice. All I could do in that moment was maneuver both my hands to cover my body from the front, but the shyness in me portrayed in my expression. "What are you doing?!"
"What's the big deal? You told me I was free to hang out with you longer."
This isn't what I meant Lumina! Oh, why did I have to let her see me naked like this? No girl I've ever dated saw this much of me before. Doesn't she see what's wrong with this picture? I averted my gaze from the mirror, realizing I could solve this problem by turning around and panning my gaze up to the ceiling. With my view askew, she can't see any part of my body if I'm not looking at myself.
"Oh come on! That's what you're so worried about? I've already seen you naked before."
"You can't just—" My voice trailed off, considering the weight of her own confession. "Wait, you have? When? How many times did this happen?" I certainly remembered the time she surprised me during a shower, and another time when I was on an adult website, but those moments were still so different. In both instances, I wasn't standing in front of any reflective surface, so Lumina didn't see too much.
"Oh, plenty of times. There were a couple of times I saw you before the purge, when you were fondling yourself..."
"What?!"
"Then a couple of times after the purge, then that one time in the shower... Oh, and then that time I popped in on you when you were on that website."
Okay, there are two memories I've already accounted for, memories I've come to terms with. But I thought she couldn't know anything about me like that before the purge, so how in the world did she see me doing something like that? When? "Aaagh! This is so not happening right now!" I was almost shaking from the thought. I'm already so embarrassed about the current moment, but I couldn't handle the thought of her catching me masturbate in my years back.
"What...? Oh, I get it now." Just then, Lumina's voice turned highly provocative, making my heart beat much faster. "You want to get back at me for this, don't you? Now that I've seen you, you must want to catch me off guard, to see me naked?"
"You— You mean... I can?" Wait, what am I thinking?! I shouldn't ask such a thing from Lumina. It's too weird! I've never seen her naked form before, and I shouldn't tell her that's what I want to see, not right now.
"We're together now you idiot! Of course we can."
"What a ringing endorsement... So then, none of this is new to you, is it?" I let the silence build, feeling Lumina nod up and down slightly, confirming that my body was no mystery to her. I tried not to panic or freak out, to hide my trembling arms, knowing what I was about to do without enough thought. I turned my head again, facing downward towards myself. I told myself twenty times over in the same second that Lumina has already seen me without clothes before, especially since a few seconds ago, and it was the only thing that made this okay, momentarily. There I was, starting at my own crotch with Lumina's eyes linked into mine, for but a single second.
