Hirate Yurina's One Shot!

Bench

In Keyaki Kindergarten

Techi sat down on the bench, following Neru who bringing an otter doll and an tanuki doll. Techi just let Neru do whatever she want while she's gazing out to the play yard. Looking at everyone who play hide-and-seek game.

"Nee~ Neruko-chan" Techi called Neru who busy play with her dolls.

"Hm? Nani Tecchan?" Neru stopped for a bit, facing Techi with a big smile on her lips.

"Why do you want to play with me? Instead of me, you can play with everyone else and it's more fun" Techi asked without taking her eyes off from the yard.

"Hee~ it's because i like... Maybe, love? Yeah! I love Techi!" Neru said with higher voice, making Techi blushed madly.

"L-Love? Where do you learn that word, Neruko?"

"Hm~ because Mona said that she like Risa, Akane, Mon, and recently she's into Kyonko. I asked her and she said 'It is love'." Neru explained, a bit shy since she averted her gaze off from Techi.

Techi eavesdropping after heared Neru's explanation. She looked at Mona direction who's busy chasing for Risa. Looks like the tsundere girl angry with Mona.

'Rather than love, she's trying to make her own harem.' Techi sighed and chuckles on herself.

"Nee~ what's so funny?" Neru asked with a confused face.

"Neruko, you can't just say 'Love' to anyone else. You can say that to someone you really care about. Not someone like me" Techi smiled.

"But i really love Tecchan! I only want to be by Tecchan's side. Don't make fun of me!" Neru pouted, staring at Techi's eyes deeply.

Techi can't say anything after that. But after taking Neru's words for a minute, she understand it. She bring her hand to brushed off Neru's long haired then showing her bright smile.

"…A-arigatou nee? I also like Neruko too." Techi smiled shyly, her cheeks turned a bit pinkish color.

"Jaa~ kissu shiyou!" Neru declared with sparkling eyes, hoping Techi will do it.

"Haa?!"

Techi shocked with wide eyes on Neru. While the long-hair girl still smiling while her eyes sometimes looking at Techi's lips.

"Let me guess... Mona tell you that?"

Neru agreed with her nodding to Techi. "She said that kissing is the way for two person that love each other to convey their love to their partner. That's why i want to kiss Tecchan!"

'Like what i expected. Neruko has been stained with Mona's harem lesson' Techi glanced at Mona, and to her surprise Mona looked at her. Giving an thumb up to her.

'And what's with that thumb-up to me?!'

"Why i should experience this kind of thing" Techi sighed softly

Neru pouted and gazing to both of her dolls. A otter and tanuki that said to Techi as the otter and Neru-herself as the tanuki. She smiling and get both of it stand up.

"Nee Tecchan~ look at this~"

Techi glanced to Neru who had called her. And to her surprise, Neru brings both the otter and the tanuki dolls... Kissing each other.

"Chuu~" Neru giving some sound effect like in anime.

"Yamerou!!"

Techi panicked and held both of the dolls to stop uh... Kissing each other. Her face now blushing off like a tomato that already ripe. Techi's heartbeat beating faster than ever not that can be compared when she running away from Akanen.

"Close your eyes" Techi ordered Neru to close her eyes.

"Eh~ Nande? Iyada" Neru pouted.

"Iikara!"

"Ha'i ha'i"

Neru closed her eyes as Techi said. The short hair girl picked up the otter doll, brought it as close to Neru's lips. With eyes averted from Neru even thought she know Neru can't see her, she kissed Neru. By the otter doll of course. Do you really think it's possible for Techi to do that at very young age?

"T-There. Neruko can feel it right? Ah! You can open your eyes too"

Neru opened up her eyelids. With a tint of pinkish color on her chubby cheeks. She can't stop smiling cause of Techi kissed her. Or so it is in her mind.

"Nee Tecchan?"

"U-un?"

"Yakusoku shiyou!"

"For what?" Asked Techi with tilted head, a bit confused.

"That we will always together no matter what. In the future maybe we will have a fight or something like that.  But even though we're squealing over something, let's promise to make up for it."

Neru bite her lower lips, brought her little finger closer enough to Techi. Suddenly something twisted on her little finger, it's tightened up with her's. She looked up to Techi, found the girl smiling widely for the first time.

"I won't leave Neruko! You can keep my words if I'm lied to Neruko."

Neru smiled. She stood up cheerfully, still with a soft smile in her lips. Then she held Techi's hand, dragging her gently to play with the others. While Techi secretly smiling softly without Neru noticed.
