Chapter 52 - Relieved
When Yuki logged out, she found herself in the same situation as Trisha. Her panties were soaked, and there was a wet spot on her sheets. "Why did my first sexual experience with someone else have to be me as a guy with a dick!?" Yuki sighed as she got up. She changed her panties and then changed the sheets on her bed. With Trisha coming over, she didn't want her to see such things. It was just that Yuki was having a hard time forgetting the pleasurable expression that was on Chi's face and the feeling she got as well. It was definitely an experience she will never forget.
Shaking her head and slapping her cheeks, Yuki went into the bathroom to brush her teeth. Just as she finished brushing, a knock came at her door. Yuki walked over to the door and looked at the door cam to see Trisha standing there fidgeting. You could tell she was nervous. Yuki looked at the clock that read exactly 5 AM and let out a laugh. "Was she really that excited about coming over so early?"
Yuki opened the door as she yawned. "Morning, Trisha."
Seeing Yuki so early in the morning caused Trisha to beam a smile as she happily replied: "Morning, Yuki!"
"Breakfast will be ready around 6ish. Our classes are not until later today, so we can hang out for a while. So make yourself at home and relax." This was something that Yuki had forgotten when she had messaged Trisha. They didn't have classes until 10 AM, so they had a lot of time to just lounge around. Although it was early Yuki, found this to be nice. Having a friend over to hang out with instead of just sitting around alone. "Sorry, if I remembered our class time, I wouldn't have asked you to come over so early."
"It's fine. I am up around this time anyway. Where should I put my jacket and bag?" Yuki turned to look at Trisha, who was only wearing a long shirt like herself, and shook her head. 'Why didn't she put on clothes!?'
"Anywhere is fine. Let me give you a tour of the house." Yuki waited for Trisha to put her things down and began showing her the entire house. "So as you can see, the kitchen and living room are basically one and the same. Over here is the newly renovated bathroom."
Trisha looked around the bathrooms and looked at the bathtub that was big but would barely fit two people and blushed slightly. "Yuki, can we take a bath together later?"
"If you want." Yuki nodded, not thinking too much about it. After the bathroom, Yuki showed her the guest room that was still empty, and then she opened the door to her room. "And this is my bedroom. As you can see, I don't have too much." Yuki turned and saw that Trisha seemed to be frozen stiff. "Trisha?"
"Huh? Oh no, I like it. It's simple." Trisha answered, her eyes not once leaving the VR helmet lying on the bed. Her heart was racing so fast. She was growing excited at the hopes that maybe just maybe, all her assumptions were true. She just couldn't find the words to ask. It was not that the words were hard to find. It was just that… She was scared. What if Yuki was not Ryu…
"Oh? I thought Tina set the chef to cook a bit later..." Yuki said as she smelt food being cooked.
"Tina!?" Trisha snapped out of her daze, only picking up on the name as she whipped her head around to look at Yuki.
"Oh, I never mentioned her. You could say she is my mother for the year? Well, test mother? It's hard to explain. But if not for her, I might not have returned to school a few days ago." Yuki did not want to go into detail. Just thinking about it made her sad and want to cry.
Trisha let out a sigh of relief. But knowing that she did feel relieved that Tina was family to Yuki made Trisha blush. When breakfast was ready, the two girls chatted about this and that. Although Trisha was answering and talking as well, she still seemed to be in a daze. It was clearly visible something was bothering her.
"Let's take a bath and let the hot water relax our muscles." Yuki suggested. She could clearly see that Trisha was tense and had something on her mind. She figured maybe the hot bath would relax her enough to want to talk about it.
"Mmm..." Trisha nodded and got up.
Two girls went to the bathroom. Yuki turned the water on and began filling up the bathtub. "Trisha, how is this, too hot?" Yuki asked. She didn't know how hot Trisha liked her baths.
Trish, who was now only in her panties, walked over and felt the water. When she felt the hot steamy water penetrate her fingers, a faint smile formed on her lips. "Just right."
Yuki nodded and got undressed. The bathtub was normal length but much wider than the average one. It was enough space for two petite bodies like Yuki and Trisha to sit side by side with their shoulders touching. When the two girls submerged their bodies into the hot water, they both let out relaxed sighs. "This is heaven." Yuki said as she laid back and closed her eyes.
Trisha's gaze was on Yuki the entire time. She bit her lip and gripped her fists. She was mustering up all her courage to ask that one simple question. After battling in her mind whether she should or not, she finally asked: "Yuki do you play VR games?"
"Mmm… I just recently started playing a game called Soul Fusion Online. Why do you play too?" Yuki answered. Her eyes still closed. She felt like she was melting in the hot bath.
"Mm… I do… I play Soul Fusion Online as well..." Trisha was now sure that Yuki was Ryu. Everything finally fell into place. The frustration and anxiety and all the questions she had were finally answered. She took a deep breath, and before Yuki could say anything, she said: "Yuki, I'm Chi..."
Yuki's body froze. It was as if time had stopped. Her brain had basically stopped functioning. She had thought since Chi was in game, a person she would never meet, it would be fine to just forget about the situation that happened. But now… Now she could not do that because the very person she had done such intimate things with was next to her naked. Only one thing came to mind at this time. "I-I don't know any Chi!"
"Liar!" Trisha was watching every expression on Yuki's face! There was no way she was not Ryu!
"No, really, I do not know who Chi is… Haha! It seems I am getting overheated. I should get out."Yuki quickly tried to escape, but there was no way Trisha was going to let that happen.
"Yuki, don't run away!" Trisha yelled and pulled Yuki back. By doing so, Yuki slipped and fell on top of Trisha., hot water splashing everywhere. The two were now face to face. Their noses only a centimeter apart. Trisha wrapped her arms around Yuki's neck so she could not run away anymore. Trisha gazed into Yuki's eyes and, with all seriousness as if the question she was asking had to do with her own life and death, asked: "You are Ryu, right?"
Yuki's cheeks blushed. She could feel Trisha's heart pounding through her chest. Or maybe it was her own heart, but when she saw those eyes that were begging for a truthful answer, Yuki could only simply nod her head. "Mmm… I am… Trisha, about last night I..." Yuki's eyes went wide as she felt something soft pressed against her lips. It was like an atomic bomb went off inside her head. Trisha had actually kissed her! As their lips lingered together, Yuki's eyes slowly closed and began kissing Trisha back. She did not know why this felt so right, but it did.
The two kissed, their tongues intertwined, their breathing heavy. As their lips parted so that they could breathe, Yuki opened her eyes to see tears streaming down Trisha's face. "Trisha, what's wrong!?"
"I'm so happy! You have no idea how much my heart has been in turmoil." Trisha began to bawl. All her frustrations were being released. The girl who was her first real life friend was also the first real friend she met in Soul Fusion Online. What's more, was that this same girl was the first person she had feelings for and also the first person she was ever intimate with. She had never felt so happy in her entire life.
Yuki smiled and leaned in and kissed Trisha's lips lightly. "I am happy too." Yuki was indeed happy. Although she was not in love with Trisha, she did like her. Whether it was just as friends or more, she wanted Trisha to be happy. She now understood why Chi and Trisha seemed so alike, and that was because they were the same person.
