Matsuri sighed loudly as she flopped on her bed. She didn't have a gig that night, so her beautiful bass was just sitting neatly in the corner of the room. Really, it was the only thing that was set up nice and neat on her half of the room, she had some old clothes scattered at the foot of her messy bed. There were a few music related books near her bass guitar, but they were opened in different pages that she was trying to force herself to get to reading again eventually.
For now though, she didn't want to think about touching them. She turned her head to her girlfriend's side of the room. "Hey Anna, I'm kinda bored." she laughed lightly.

Anna was flopped down on her own bed, though... more upside-down than her roomie. Her torso was off her bed, a book held up to be read properly in front of her. She was bored too, or else she wouldn't have resorted to this ridiculous method of entertainment. Usually reading was enough, but this was a terribly dry novel. She had on a sweater, but the fabric had bunched up just above her belly, leaving the taunt skin exposed to the cold air of the room.
At least it was more interesting than being completely cozy, she supposed, before dragging herself back upright and stretching. The book was tossed aside to return to the library later. "What do you want me to do about it? I'm just as bored as you are..."

The blonde stood up and walked over to the other bed, hugging the other girl and burying her head into her shoulder. "Weeeell, we could always cuddle." Matsuri loved to cuddle now that she actually had someone for it. Having a drunken mother and taking care of her little brothers growing up made things like that much easier to appreciate.

Anna frowned as Matsuri latched on, mostly on principle, the corner of her mouth kept twitching up. "Cuddling's still kinda boring," she replied, though she leaned back to rest against the headboard and wrapped her free arm (the one Matsuri HADN'T taken hostage) around the blond anyway.

"You're a killjoy, you know that?" She looked up at the younger girl with an amused grin. "Do I gotta lose my other eye for you to actually want to hug me?" She normally tried staying away from that topic, but she was in an oddly cheery mood so it didn't bother her as much for once.

Anna's lips quirked up into a proper smile as she tugged the smaller woman closer. "No, you don't have to go that far." She admitted, nuzzling Matsuri's hair. They had done this an incalculable number of times, but if Anna was being entirely honest it was one of her favorite activities. Besides, Matsuri smelled good. And it was nice to have someone who WANTED to see her every day. Jackie was too wrapped up in her boyfriend (fiance?) and Tenko... well, the little brat had NEVER liked his eldest sister mom-ing him. She had mostly given up on him.

Matsuri smiled wider and cuddled closer. "Good, 'cause that would kind of suck." Now that her dad had finally left her mother, it didn't look like she'd have to deal with THAT anymore.
She reached up and kissed Anna's cheek. "You can be nice when you wanna be, you should try it more often." Granted Matsuri probably got the most of that than anyone else, but could you blame her for being a little spoiled and wanting more? The whole 'independent woman' shit was getting old.

"Too late for that," She said, settling into the bed. "No one would take me seriously if I started now." Sad but true. She had tried once, actually, and everyone had just started asking what was wrong or blew her off. Not an experience she wanted to replicate anytime soon. "Besides, this way you know you're special." It seemed to be that Matsuri either wanted or needed that reassurance. After meeting her mother, though, Anna was pretty sure she knew why...

Matsuri blushed and giggled at that. "Sure, we'll go with that." Low self esteem wasn't something that could go away over night, but she never really dwelled on it.
"'Sides, you're the special one." she muttered sheepishly, glancing down so not to feel even more like an idiot by looking at Anna's face. The blonde never really saw herself as much, an alright voice and a decent ear for music, but that was all. Anna was just so dignified and beautiful and just all around BETTER than her in so many ways, she had no idea why she wanted to be with HER of all people.

Anna frowned. "No I'm not. I'm not the one that protected her two little brothers and lost an eye protecting her dad. I'm not the one that managed to still do things she loves despite clan duties... I'm not the one who even made the first move for THIS for god's sake..." The brunette tugged the blond as close as she could manage. "You're amazing, Matsuri, don't doubt it for a second."
Anna? All she had was a bunch of terrible thoughts she couldn't stop thinking, a bunch of horrible ideas her mother had instilled in her. She had snapped and broken so many times, she was surprised that Matsuri had never brought up the scars. But they were thin now, she supposed, unnoticeable unless you knew what you were looking for... And she hadn't even tried to fight back in some small way. After her dad died from sickness when she was young... she had taken her mother's word as law and truth...
There was nothing beautiful in being a mindless drone, there was nothing dignified in losing yourself. Matsuri was a beautiful light in her life, and Anna would be damned if she let anything happen to her.

Matsuri could feel her blush getting darker, and she found herself holding Anna even tighter at that. All of what the younger woman said were just things she HAD to do, she'd never once given it any second thought or even asked for special treatment because of it. As for the two of them... "Well when I see a pretty girl I've gotta make a move before someone else does." She said with a grin as she went back to her usual self.
Honestly, Anna was gorgeous and wonderful. Yes Matsuri had noticed the scars, but who was she to judge? Not everyone came from a perfect family, hell the blonde was a testament to that. Anna may not have seen much in herself, but to Matsuri she was the most beautiful person she had ever met, and she would do whatever it took for her to see that.

Anna blushed to the tips of her ears at that, a smile worming its way onto her face as she buried her face against Matsuri's neck. It was... god it was nice to hear something so sincere. Anna wasn't sure what she would have done without the elder Ookami around. "I don't think there was a line, 'Suri..." She reminded, a bit muffled from her position, lips ticking against the blond's neck.

Matsuri's breathing quickened a little, and her heart started to beat faster too. They were her body's usual responses to her neck being touched the way it was currently, and she closed her eyes to revel in it as she stroked the brunette's hair. "Well then I just got lucky." She murmured gently, keeping her arms wrapped securely around Anna. She wasn't letting her go, not for the world.

Anna moved her head up to kiss Matsuri, "I got luckier," she corrected the elder woman as she pulled back from the kiss. Anna... Anna was pretty sure she'd have died or just given up if it hadn't been for Matsuri. Hell, some days the blond was the reason Anna even got up, and... well, it helped to just know she was wanted and loved. Even when she fucked up (And she had, of course, everyone did in relationships) she was still wanted.

Matsuri grinned as she kissed her back. She giggled quietly, moving her hand to tuck Anna's hair behind her ear before resting it against her cheek. "You've always gotta win, don't you?" She asked, though her voice was more soft than it was teasing. The blonde was just as lonely before Anna came along.
She'd spent most of the past few years thinking her little brother was dead, and with her mother the way she was... Making friends just hadn't seemed like an option until the passed couple years, and even then the idea of a relationship had scared her. Though she wasn't scared with Anna, not one bit. She made her feel safe when the concept never even crossed her mind for so long. It was a great feeling.
