In My Arms - Eiko Matsunaga x Ahana Day
"Because I'm in love with you! Stop making me say it!"
She didn't flinch at the sound coming from the TV. The very next moment, the two characters on the screen were kissing each other with abandon. Eiko watched it with a blend of interest and lethargy. Though she felt perfectly at peace in the moment, she tried to make it better. She rested her cheek on the side of Ahana's head. They were cuddling on Ahana's (quite uncomfortable) couch. Her feisty woman seemed absorbed with the romedy playing on her TV. But her fingertips grazed Eiko's hand as she kept holding it in hers, like she had been doing for the last thirty minutes or so. Eiko smiled and kissed the top of her head.
Eiko said that and watched Ahana pull her arm tighter around herself. She seemed to be cocooning herself completely between those arms. No amount of hardcore snuggling was ever intense enough for her... girlfriend?
Diana's Mom. Her student's Mom.
"You're going to break my arm if you pull it any tighter around yourself", Eiko joked.
"We both know you're too strong for that"
"Is that right? Or are you just saying that so you can keep hogging my arms?"
Eiko gave her a squeeze before leaning to press a kiss to that plump cheek. A 28-year old woman with baby cheeks and an addiction to cuddling. For Eiko, Ahana could sometimes be cuter than her nine-year old. Speaking of whom...
"How's Diana taking the whole visitation thing?"
The body in her arms stiffened for a second, before Ahana sighed and leaned back further against Eiko's chest.
"She's... starting to notice things. Now she doesn't seem excited anymore when she has to go to his place. I think the signature charm of her father is wearing off for her now"
"Poor kid. She deserves so much better", Eiko said, "So do you"
"I wish he had never come back. Things were starting to look better for us. Now...", Ahana shook her head, "I'm reminded by almost everyone that I'm not enough for my baby. The court, Guy, the PTA, kids like August who pick on Diana because they know they will get away with it"
Ahana quickly gave a dismissive laugh, squeezing Eiko's hand which she was holding.
"Look at me. I promised myself there would be no venting today. So no. I'm cutting myself off"
Eiko spoke in a gentle voice, tucking a curl away from Ahana's face,
"I don't mind. I like it when you vent to me"
"You're too good to me, Eiko"
Kissing the back of the hand she was holding, Ahana snuggled closer between those toned arms.
"No more complaining for today. No more of the Worst Mother award monologue", she said.
Eiko tried to lighten the mood,
"You're not the worst mother. And if you ask me, you're not actually a mother"
Eiko watched her shaking with laughter, and pressed another big kiss to Ahana's cheek with her smiling lips. She held on tight to the amazing woman in her arms, wondering how good would it feel to hear that laugh every day for the rest of their lives.
