Killing the first spirit was all that mattered to her before, but now it seemed to have changed as her focus and priorities seemed to be changing.
She felt afraid of this newfound change as things were going out of her control. Although she wanted to stop it, she was unable to as she didn't want to.
In the end, she caved in as she couldn't control herself, and the feelings only grew to the point where she had no choice but to do something.
She ended up kissing her master and it was her first kiss too, she never imagined it would feel so good. She felt as if her whole body was on cloud 9. { Get her the jersey }
After that, she became more open to the idea of being his and she focused more on their relationship that she partially forgot about the fact that maybe if she got her wish she would lose everything she had now.
Maybe she knew but she didn't want to address it as it would only make things more complicated for her.
She took the easier and more cowardly way out and ignored her troubles.
She did it for a while and she was successful at it, but it only got harder as she spent more time with him.
As his presence became constant in her life it became more and more difficult to not think about it.
And spending time with him so intimately was the last straw for her.
After experiencing all that she couldn't live without it, Kurumi understood how important this relationship was to her.
Even when she shot the clone of her without listening to its ramblings, she still had her insecurities.
But now after giving herself to him, she felt the shackles in her heart had been freed.
She felt as if a huge boulder that had been weighing her down had been removed...
...
" Master.... I love you "These words although simple were the hardest for her to speak for the longest time.
But after letting go of everything she was able to say these words without any burden. If before she would always think if her feelings for him were more important to her than her wish.
If getting her wish granted would separate her from him then she didn't want for this wish to be fulfilled because she had a new wish to be fulfilled...
.....
Itsuki was a bit stunned by her sudden confession but seeing her tears he didn't bother wasting any more time on these useless thoughts.
Sometimes you don't need to understand everything and just go with the flow, he didn't know what happened but it seems Kurumi was very vulnerable right now.
And he would do what was needed to comfort her.
He let go of his hug and moved both of his hands to her face as he cupped her cheeks tenderly and used his thumbs to brush her cheeks gently as he carefully wiped her tears away while he pressed his lips softly against her forehead.
He didn't need to say anything but sometimes you just have to say something cheesy to satisfy your partner.
He laid soft kisses on her face showing his feelings, as his lips left feather-light touches all over her skin.
Causing her to let out a small giggle as it felt a bit ticklish, the tense atmosphere encompassing them was broken as it was replaced by a more lighthearted one as Kurumi smiled and her eyes where twinkling with mischief as she entwined her arms around his neck while bringing their faces close enough that their noses were touching each other.
Itsuki also smiled as he leaned to give her a chaste kiss as he whispered " Always did "
Kurumi blushed a bit as she was always a bit weak to things like this at least from the person she truly loved and for Itsuki's credit, he was able to maintain a straight face.
Having a thick face really helps a lot but he Itsuki wasn't a shameless man his kids and wives would call him a wholesome family man....
...
It was morning and the sunlight poured in through the window causing Itsuki to stir in his sleep.
"Umm!" Kurumi let out a dissatisfied hum as she hugged him tighter, Itsuki in turn only stroked her head in a comforting manner causing her to mewl while hugging him with a satisfied smile.
Itsuki felt that it wouldn't be that bad to sleep in for a few more hours as this was basically a vacation.....
....
"Kurumi" Itsuki called out to her gently while trying to rouse her from her sleep.
"Mou~" Kurumi let out a dissatisfied noise as she snuggled in deeper against her master's warm body.
She felt a sense of satisfaction and warmth from hugging him and felt grateful to him once more for being in her life. In times like these, she gave herself a pat for being smart and doing the right thing.
What revenge? What purpose?
Was anything worth even a bit of her master's love?
No! The worth of her master's love cannot be measured at all and that bitch of a clone of hers dared to try to separate her from her master.
Kurumi felt her decision to instantly shoot the clone was a very sound decision, as sound as it could be from her at least...
