Even though it is Christmas Day, Aira is still in school late at night.
Today was the closing ceremony and she also had winter classes, so she had to stay until 6:00 p.m.

 

 

Originally, she had made plans with Ema to go to the Tokyo Christmas Market together, but those plans all came to naught.

 

She knows that dwelling on it won't change anything, but she's not so understanding that she can just easily accept her Christmas plans with the person she loves being ruined.

 

She changes into her loafers while pouting her lips before walking out of the school gate.

 

Surprised to hear a voice call out to her from the driver seat of a nearby parked car, she looks over.

 

 

"Hello there, pretty lady. You out here all alone?"

 

 

The person spouting that cheesy line like a pick-up artist is the woman she had so anxiously been wanting to hear from.

 

 

Urged by her feelings of love, Aira puts her face closer to the window.

 

 

"What are you doing...?"
"Since it's Christmas, I figure we can at least spend it together."

 

 

Aira gets into the passenger seat. When the engines start, jazz music starts playing.

 

 

It's just the two of them.
Through the car window, they can see the glistening lights.

 

 

Aira gazes at the streets lit up by Christmas decorations.
They are filled with couples smiling happily.

 

 

However, the car drives past all the lights onto a less busy road.

 

 

"...Where are we going?"
"Somewhere we can get a good view of the city at night. I was also wondering if we should get something to eat, but it's probably better for us to not stay out too late."

 

Still in her school uniform, a high schooler like Aira doesn't have much time left to be wandering outside until her curfew.

 

 

Her winter classes dragged on for so long that it was already dinner time.

 

 

"Did you buy this car?"
"I borrowed this from my manager. Though it makes it easier for us to meet, so maybe I should buy one..."

 

When the car stops at a red light, Ema squeezes Aira's hand.

 

 

"Then we'll be able to go anywhere we want."

 

 

Ema smiles at her happily and Aira catches a whiff of her perfume.
This is the perfume from the well-known brand that they picked out together.

 

 

Aira also uses it frequently outside of school and every time she smells it, she gets reminded of Ema.

 

 

"Do you wear our matching perfume every day?"
"Of course."
"I'd like to wear it every day too... but my school doesn't allow perfume."

 

 

The school is lenient towards makeup and hairstyles, but not perfume and nail polish.

 

When she complained about it, she got admonished.

 

 

"Once you become an adult, no one will get mad at you for wearing perfume. They can only get mad at you for such unreasonable things in the short time they have authority over you."
"...I can't wait to grow up."
"...Mm."

 

 

After a 30-minute car ride, they arrive at an observation deck with a sweeping view of the city.

 

 

They purchase tickets and take the elevator up to the top floor.

 

From the top floor made entirely out of glass, they get a clear view of the sparkling city at night.

 

Perhaps it's due to this location being far from the city center, but there aren't many other people around.

 

 

Wanting to be alone with Ema, Aira stops at a place that offers a less ideal view.

 

 

"...It's beautiful."
"I wanted to make you happy so I did some research."

 

 

Aira loves the way Ema is combing her hair.
Without a word, Ema holds her hand.

 

Aira savors the happiness of them being able to connect their hands like lovers.

 

 

"By the way, I went back to see my family last month."
"Oh...?"
"It's been so many years. Momo has grown so big."
"...Mm."
"It's thanks to you, Aira."

 

 

The fragrance of Ema's perfume gently drifts this way.
After being bound by guilt, Ema was able to take a step forward.

 

 

She may finally be truly free after suffering for so long from her sin.

 

"I'll definitely pass the entrance exam on my first try."

 

After how much Ema has been through, Aira doesn't want her to be hurt again.
Aira wants to protect her against any bad people who will hurt her.

 

 

Seeing what she looked like while she was suffering, Aira wants her to have a life where she will never be able to stop smiling from now on.

 

 

After looking around to confirm that there's no one else here, Aira stands on the tip of her toes.

 

 

"Nnn...."

 

 

A kiss where only their lips touch. Hearing how loud the smacking of their lips is, she quickly pulls away.
She would never kiss her out in public if it wasn't Christmas.

 

 

Spending Christmas with her love might have gotten her more excited than expected.

 

 

"...You have my lipstick on you, Aira."

 

 

Some of the dark red lipstick Ema is wearing seems to have transferred to Aira's lips.

 

 

Ema gently wipes it off, but Aira feels like that's somewhat of a waste.
She wants to keep just a bit of a reminder of her kiss with Ema.

 

 

It would be nice if time could pass by quicker.

 

 

Then, she'll be able to spend the rest of her life together with Ema.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After studying for too long, her right hand feels a bit sore from holding a mechanical pencil.

 

 

Despite it being New Year's Eve, Aira has come to a nearby fast food restaurant to focus on her studies.

 

 

She got bored of studying in the same place all the time, so she has come here for a change of pace.

 

While she is taking a breather, she opens the video site to find that Usami Koneko is currently streaming.

 

 

"Ah..."

 

She clicks on it and hears Ema talking in a voice higher than usual through her earphones.

 

 

Her heart throbs as she remembers their kiss on Christmas.

 

 

They only kissed, but her body wanted to go even further.

 

 

"...Haah."

 

 

Aira wasn't like this before living with Ema.
She wasn't a perverted girl who wishes for her body to be touched.

 

 

This is all Ema's fault.
Because of her, Aira learned so many things.

 

 

Remembering the pleasure of being touched by Ema at night, Aira holds herself back from doing anything.

 

 

Looking forward to the day she graduates from high school, she has been having dreams of the days when she will be touched by Ema.

 

When Ema finally touches her for the first time after so long, Aira will surely drown in pleasure and become completely addicted to her.
