Our Love Story (Kominato Ryosuke x OC)

Omake 1: Growing Up?

Tatsune furrowed her brows at the mirror. Doesn't look right.... She looked back at her smartphone, swiping the video to rewind it. Somehow she makes it look so easy, but when Tatsune tries it herself, for some reason it looks like she gave herself a black eye....

"Tatsune, did you see-"

Yuuki blinked a few times, then rubbed his eyes. "Is something wrong Onii-chan?" Tatsune asked.

"Tatsune, who hit you?" Yuuki asked. His words felt like arrows stabbing right through Tatsune's chest. She almost spat out a mouthful of blood. 

"N-Nobody..." she mustered. Yuuki walked over and knelt down in front of his sister. He held her cheeks in both hands, and studied her face with worry filled eyes.

"Tell me the truth. Don't try to fool me by saying you fell down the stairs. This isn't a black eye you can get from a simple fall...." he said.

Tatsune groaned. She pulled Yuuki's hands off her face and sighed. "Onii-chan I don't have a black eye! This is eye shadow! I'm just practicing how to apply makeup," she pouted as she turned around, and grabbed a sheet of makeup removing wipes, and started rubbing it on her face. Yuuki then noticed all the palettes and brushes laid over her little snack table*. Ohh, so she doesn't have a black eye, he thought. After Tatsune wiped away all the makeup residue, she turned around again and faced her brother with an annoyed look on her face. "So what did you want?"

"I was gonna ask if you saw my sweat towel.... I was gonna wash it but I couldn't find it," Yuuki said. 

"Oh, that! I already put it in the washer for you along with the rest of the laundry. Speaking of laundry, they should be done by now," Tatsune crawled up from the ground and headed out of her room. Yuuki muttered a thanks as he followed her out of the room. On her way to the laundry room, Tatsune knocked on Masashi's door. "Masashi! Come out and help with the laundry!" The door immediately opens, revealing their buff little brother, with his usual stern expression. "You don't have to be so excited, it's just laundry!" Tatsune chuckled. 

The Yuuki siblings collected the laundry from the washing machine, and all helped laying it out to dry in the backyard**. "Tatsune, why did you suddenly start doing makeup?"asked Yuuki, the eldest.

"Eh? Nee-san you do makeup?" Masashi exclaimed. 

"Why do you guys make it sound like I shouldn't wear makeup?" Tatsune commented. 

Yuuki hesitated, and said, "Well it's not that you shouldn't, but more like I'm surprised as to why you suddenly decided to, since...you know, you never mentioned anything about it before...."

Tatsune hung up the last piece of laundry on the clothes line, giving it a small pat. She thought for a bit before replying, "Well....."

...

The next day, at school Yuuki laid out his shogi board on Isashiki's desk. "Not again...." Isashiki groaned.

"Just one game," said Yuuki with his eyes looked like they were pleading. Isashiki sighed and gave in. They took advantage of the interval between classes, to get in that game of shogi which Yuuki loved. While they were in the middle of a game, Yuuki suddenly said, "I think Tatsune is growing up."

"Hah?" Isashiki raised a brow as he laid down a piece of lance on the board. 

"What? What? Something about Tatsune-chan?" Ryousuke suddenly popped out of nowhere, scaring the heck out of Isashiki. 

"Gah! Can you not suddenly pop out like that?!" exclaimed the spitz third year. 

"So, what were you talking about?" Ryousuke asked Yuuki, ignoring Isashiki.
