Seraphim and Minerva

Minerva's eyes widened and as she heard Seraphim's words. She couldn't believe that Seraphim was so accepting. She didn't doubt Seraphim, she more so doubted everyone. Though she was basically an unwavering optimist, she still had doubted that she could be accepted so undeniably. Her lip quivered and when Seraphim embraced her, Minerva began to cry again and hugged her as tightly as possible. For many many minutes she held onto Seraphim like her life would end if she let go, crying the whole time.

She kept this up until she literally sank to the ground even in the white haired girl's clutches. She looked up sniffling but had a weak smile. "Mine-chan is so happy." She whispered. She then sighed deeply and wiped her eyes. "B-but!" She stammered. "Is it ok?" She asked. "Could I be the same for Sera-San?" She wondered a loud. Not a big sister, but a sister in general, or really anything Seraphim needed. Though she wondered if Seraphim really did need something like that.

"A-and! I will always do my best!" She stood up quickly but fell down lightheadedness overwhelming her. "Ughoo." She moaned with a blush. She looked up. "Mine-chan cares for Sera-san onee-chan very much too." She said. "When we are finished we can go to my house and I will make a big big dinner!" She said with a wide hopeful smile. "To thank Sera-San for ... " She wrinkled her nose in thought. "For everything!" She decided.

As Minerva was seemingly breaking down and couldn't help from cryng in Seraphim's arms, the white haired girl did all she could o just keep Minerva as comfortable as possible, listening to her every word as she held her gently in a loving hug, even when Minerva did so as tight as possible, like her life depended on it. Seeing Minerva cry, even when it was from tears of joy, it hurt Seraphim to see, but at the same time, she was feeling releif to know that her friend who had come so close to her in this short amount of time was helping herself, the tears being an escape to all the pain she once felt.

"It's more than okay." Seraphim said back nearly in a whisper as pulled her closer into an embrace, not afraid of having such contact as her chest softly pressed into Minerva's breasts. She could see that even know, the girl was still in a weakened state after crying so much, and needed someone close right now, so Seraphim didn't even think about releasing her, sharing this special moment with her close friend. "I'd love that too, I'm really glad Mine-chan wants me to be around, you're more important to me than you might think. And with those gentle words said, Seraphim closed her crimson eye for just a moment before inching her face closer to Minerva's, until finally, without a shred of doubt in her mind or regretting what she was about to do, she gently placed her lips upon Minerva's, taking in a long, but delicate kiss with her.

Minerva watched in breathless anticipation of Seraphim's words even as she spoke quietly. She thought her heart had skipped a beat when Seraphim said it was ok and although she wanted to beam a smile and shout to the world she still held her position, lips gently quivering and her wide eyes focused on Seraphim's single crimson one. She blushed when their chests met but still it felt good. It felt like when Minerva and Seraphim hugged. The larger woman overpowering yet gentle int he embrace. It was a warm feeling.

"M-more than I could know?' Though she said it as a question she was more trying to understand how it could even be. She knew Seraphim was special to her but she did not think that she was as special to Seraphim. Though Minerva's eyes seemed to be as wide as they could go, somehow they widened even further as she saw Seraphim inch closer. She could feel her heart pounding and thought maybe everyone could.

Minerva melted in Seraphim's arms when she was kissed. Her soft tongue weakly submitted to Seraphim's and let itself be guided. The feeling was so wonderful that a small tear ran down her side. Her eyes had closed as she experienced such an extraordinary pleasure. Her inexperience couild be seen in not only her submission but by the fact that her lips semed too eager to touch Seraphim's as they moved around a little bit. Her face was a deep deep red but she was sure it was one of the most wonderful experiences she had ever had. A soft wine came out of her moth as they kissed. It wasn't of displeasure it seemed more like she was sad that something like this had never happened before really and she didn't want it to end.

Words no longer needed be said, as the two found themselves locked into something much more expressive than any word. It was strange though, Seraphim's heart was already captivated towards someone else... and yet, giving even just a kiss to Minerva, it felt like it was needed, like there was nothing wrong with it at all. She would still keep her heart locked away for that other person, but Seraphim didn't feel like she was doing a single thing wrong right now as her lips were sealed with Minerva's.

Slowly her eye closed, and her hands around Minerva gently begun to massage the girl's back, taking her in or all she was worth as Seraphim never let go, her hands guiding up and down along her from shoulders to hips. When their lips opened and she felt that wet tongue intrude, Seraphim welcomed it with a little dance and swirl of her own tongue, feeling everything inside between their lips as she took the deep kiss for all it was, moaning softly in excitement like she was letting her desires and lust guide her now. She only wanted to comfort Minerva, but the more she remained close to her, the less boundries their seemed to be, and Seraphim didn't ever want to see Minerva leave her grasp, roughly kissing her still, even as she felt her warm breath escape between her passionate moan and Minerva's cry.

Minerva could feel the same way as Seraphim. Though Minerva really didn't understand what love was, as it had never been offered to her, she was fairly sure that Seraphim wasn't exactly the kind of person that she could give her heart to completely. But as they kissed it felt right. Everything felt absolutely right as they embraced, Minerva's hands weakly clutching onto Seraphim's back. What they had, even if it could never be true love, was exactly perfect in Minerva's mind. It didn't need to be anything else.

Minerva whined in appreciation of the back rub, it was gentle yet comforting, as seemed to be Seraphim's nature towards the petite girl. When given a chance, she let her smaller tongue probe cautiously into Seraphims mouth and found the sensation incredible. Really this was something amazing! Hearing sounds escape Seraphim, made her feel even better, knowing that the larger woman was enjoying it as well. She never wanted Seraphim to feel like she was only supporting Minerva and never receiving anything in return. After what seemed like hours of passionate kissing, Minerva weakly pulled away from the kiss, her body reluctantly trying to maintain it.

She panted softly and looked up with a blushing smile. "Sera-san..." She whispered. "That was..." She smiled even wider. She really didn't know how to describe it. She couldn't help but let out a giggle of joy at the thought of it. "I hope that won't be the last time..." She added with a firm nod.

The kiss between them felt as delicate as a flower, but as pleasing as the softest of touch, like she had been blissfully pressing her lips against that of cherub angel, slowly breaching past the pure innocence. Seraphim could tell that Minerva was inexperianced, and Seraphim took everything between them slowly, never wanting to go too far as she allowed Minerva to slowly probe her tongu past her lips, eliciting a soft moan from Seraphim's lips as she closed her eye again and was lost in the moment.

Slowly though, as the two broke away, leaving a small trail of saliva between their bottom lips, Seraphim opened her eye, a beautiul sparkle in her crimson orb as she offered a smile at Minerva, taking a few short breaths as she blushed heavily around her cheeks. Even though Minerva was inexperianced and had been such a mousy girl, she still seemed to know how to make Seraphim feel relaxed and passionate about this all, like Minerva's presance brought out a more delicate side to Seraphim.

Slowly, she parted her lips, easing her grip around Minerva just a little as she nodded, speaking barely above a whisper back to her. "It won't be... I promise." Eventually, she released Minerva, but doing it very gently, making sure the girl could stand on her own once more and was no longer in tears, gradually dismissing the situation, but never letting the memory and desire from it fade away. It was like she opened a door now that just couldn't be shut.

Minerva grinned at Seraphim's words even though they were simple and few, that was really all she needed. Though she wanted to just hug Seraphim and squeeze her tightly for the rest of the day she heaved a deep sigh. One that was very pleasant. "Thank you..." She whispered quietly. She then looked ogver towards where Seraphim had set her things. She wrinkled her brow and patted her stomach.

"I think... I will definitely attempt that juice box again." She said blushing in slight embarrassment, but giggling nontheless. "And then the sandwich!" Her stomach gurgled along with her and she flushed again. She then nodded and took Seraphim's arm in her small hand and gave it a squeeze. "And then I want to get right back to practicing, Sensei-sama." She said the words as solemnly as she could manage. Despite the tender moments she didn't want Seraphim to think she was going to use it as excuse to stop.

Just hearing those two simple words nearly made Seraphim's heart skip a beat. Minerva was becoming an important person to her life in such a short amount of time, and was doing all she could to help this girl. So even just a simple thank you meant more to her than Minerva could have expected. Her smile never ceasing, Seraphim allowed Minerva to take her time to recover and indulge on what she wanted to, as the white-haired fighter took the time as well. She wasn't neccesarily tired, but she did need to calm down just a little after their rather.. intimate moment. It was such a conlict in her feelings right now. There were people in her life she already had her heart given to, but Minerva was finding her own place in it that Seraphim couldn't just keep her away. She wanted to embrace her again one last time, but perhaps that should wait.. she really couldn't let herself get carried away.

"Just take the time you need to relax. We still have time, and... there's still plenty for us to learn." That was what really mattered to her, as long as Minerva could learn from this and become not just a stronger fighter, but a stronger person as well, then she would feel like she had really accomplished something. "Though I promise you, things are going to get a lot tougher." She added with a subtle bit of a deviant grin in the corner of her lips. Seraphim had plans for the entire day of training, not just the afternoon. And if Minerva thought things would be tough at all beore, it was going to get much tougher much quicker.

Minerva plopped down next to the basket, a little involuntary squeak coming out of her as she sat on her bear tail. She rummaged through the basket until she found the sandqich and began nibbling on it daintily as though each bite must be done in exactly the right way. She also managed to open the juice box and enjoy it, giving a happy smile to Seraphim as she ate, wary of the warning she had been given.

"It's ok..." She said nodding. "If it's hard, it's alright because it hasn't been easy yet. And... and... I shouldn't even be here so Mine-chan isn't going to let something that is hard stop her!" Her eyes widened cutely in determination as she finished off her sandwhich and rubbed her stomach appreciatively. She finished off her juice and stood back up before looking at Seraphim. "I'm weak... I know..." She said quietly, not trying to sound pitiful. "But.. even though I have done things for the wrong reasons I have still done them... and ... and... Mine-chan hasn't given up, even when she should!" She said truthfully. She whimpered and cried when she got beat up and begged for that to be ended but she never left the AFW because of it and she never stopped trying before she even got here because of it. Because of her delicate personality and stature she had twice as many obstacles as most would but it also developed a stubborn streak in her that was hard to notice unless you knew her, which no one had wanted to do before. She wasn't a quitter, just easy to drive away. There was a difference but it was a big one. No matter what, she always came back and seemed to always do a little better the next time around.

Seraphim didn't take long to eat eather, practically lounging as she sat on the edge of the roof, her legs dangling off with a light swing as she listened. Even when she was relaxed, Seraphim was the type who liked to be on the edge, quite literally in this case. Though as Seraphim listened, she kept all her attention on Minerva, simply taking five and hearing the girl's motivational words.

The girl really made it clear that she was determined, and was looking for not just acceptance, but to really improve herself. Seraphim looked up to that, even though she was trying to teach Minerva these things, she was also still learning as well. "Well, I'll tell you one thing," She said with a mouthful, pausing to take a final bite. "The fact that you admit your weak takes a lot of courage in itself. But no one's perfect, you just have to take the good and bad, and keep trying no matter how much you fail. In fact, you'll find that sometimes you can take your weaknesses, and turn them into a strength. And that's just what we're going to do." With a ring of confidence in her words, Seraphim offered that cheesy grin towards Minerva once again as she got to her feet, and stretched out with her arms over her head, causing her shirt to go untucked and breifly revealing her waist and belly-button. The girl was about to continue the training, and felt like they were ready for more. "So, are you ready for some more?"
