148 13. Call Your Name
"Dear Aqua, Lucia has slept"
"Yeah, thanks"
It's time for Tiara Rose and Aquasteed alone after Lucia Rose sleeps at night.
Stay away from Lucia Rose, who sleeps comfortably in a basket of flowers, and sit next to Aquasteed, who is looking through the paperwork on the couch.
"Work, are you busy?
"No, I'm fine. I just have a lot to check, 'cause it's not hard."
Aquasteed left the paperwork on the side table and leaned against Tiara Rose. Apparently, it's sweet.
Gently stroking his dark blue hair, Tiara Rose happily calls her name "Dear Aqua".
But then I realize Aquasteed's golden eyes are staring at me.
"Dear Aqua?
"Hey, won't you call me anymore? Like then."
To a profound word, Tiara Rose is confused as to when the hell that was. I don't have anything in mind.
- When did this happen?
I don't remember calling it special, and I've been on Lucia Rose all these days. I didn't have much sweet time either......
Aquasteed was giggling as Tiara Rose desperately thought.
"Ah, Master Aqua!
"Sorry, I'm desperate to think Tiara's cute."
I can't help but say so.
"Name. When you had labor pains, you would have called me 'Aqua', right? Since Lucia was born, I was hoping that Tiara would finally call me and throw it away -"
When I finished giving birth, Aquasteed told me that I was back to what he always called 'Dear Aqua' and that I was very disappointed.
"Oh, that... that... I feel like I can feel Master Aqua closer, and Aqua..."
But again, because the usual habits are hard to disappear, or because I was relieved to give birth to Lucia Rose, I went back to the usual way of calling it.
Even as Tiara Rose, I was going to call her Aqua from now on......
"Hey, call me?
Aquasteed touches Tiara Rose's cheek and her fingertips fall to her lips.
"From this pretty mouth, I'd like to be called."
"...... Huh!!"
Tiara Rose's heart looks like an early bell to Aquasteed's voice, which is more colorful than usual. Sometimes I can't stop and my body lags unconsciously.
But it's on a small couch, and there's no escape.
"Ah..."
My back hit the elbow on the couch and I was quickly cornered.
"You can't run anymore.... What do we do?
Will you call me? - And Aquasteed deepens his grin. From the look on his face, I can see the thought of letting him definitely call me.
Of course, even Tiara Rose doesn't hate to call her a name.
I'm just terribly embarrassed when I think about situations.
- I wonder why it's so colorful...!!
After all this time, I get stuck with the way Aquasteed looks. But we'll be together forever.
"... what are you thinking? Tiara."
If I had kept my mouth shut, I would have been distanced from Aquasteed all at once. They put their lips on their ears and whisper in a low voice.
Once, something creepy runs through Tiara Rose's spine.
She kisses me in the ear all the time and is prompted with a sweet voice, "Here" as it is.
"If you don't call me soon, I'll eat you like this, okay?
That's what I said. Aquasteed eats my ears out.
"~ ~ ~ ~!"
"Tiara's delicious."
The look of it laughing with pleasure is like a carnivore. It's not strange that Tiara Rose has been peppered like this.
Aquasteed's lips keep changing places with his ears, temples, forehead, cheeks.
- Keep it up, they'll eat it all!
Though there is even Lucia Rose right there, Tiara Rose reaches her arms out and hugs her all the way to Aquasteed.
"Aqua...... Huh!
"... tiara"
Then he is called by his name to a happy voice.
"He finally called me"
Tiara Rose regrets just a little seeing Aquasteed smile full of happiness and wish she'd called him sooner.
- From now on, let's call it proper aqua.
"Hey, face... let me see?
"... definitely red, so please wait a little longer"
Now that we're holding each other to Aquasteed, we can't see each other's faces. But for that matter, I'm a little scared that I'm going to hear my heart.
Because Tiara Rose beats so fast. Not very much, but I'm ashamed to make you listen.
"Pretty Tiara's face, would you like to see it?
Tiara Rose is utterly stuffed by the squeaky Aquasteed voice. As much as I'm getting spoiled all the time, I want to hear as much of your request as I can.
Not sure what to do, "You have no choice," Aquasteed pulled his body back.
"Yikes!
I almost fell into the couch as it was, and Tiara Rose accidentally pulled her body back. Then Aquasteed's hand strokes his cheek.
"I finally saw Tiara's pretty face"
"Ah..."
Aquasteed, giggling and telling, is in the same position that Tiara Rose pushed down on the couch... her face has more heat than it did earlier.
Tiara Rose's honey pink hair rests on Aquasteed's face, making her look ticklish somewhere.
"It's suddenly dangerous, Aqua - Ah, uh, Aqua"
"I'm sorry. Because I really wanted to see Tiara's face. Pretty."
"I'm embarrassed to be told so much already"
Though they always say she's cute, I feel like she's saying it more than usual today.
"Tiara looked like her mother these days. Of course it's cute too, because Tiara looks at me like this is cute too"
I mean, in the end, they're both cute, Aquasteed says.
As a Tiara Rose, I sometimes get to every word I'm told. If they say so much, my body won't have it anymore.
"Mother's face, is it?
"Yes. I wonder if Tiara feels like she's ready when she's watching Lucia, that she has to protect her. But also full of charity... like the Virgin Mary"
"Exactly. That's a big deal, Aqua."
I do want to protect Lucia, but the Virgin Mary says too much...... and Tiara Rose laughs bitterly.
I'm just so glad Aquasteed thinks so, though.
"Aqua has a father's face, too, right?
"Really?"
"Yes, my eyes on Lucia are so sweet."
Tiara Rose thinks she has eyes that are not what is meant for her, that are calm and then merciful.
"If you have a proper father, I'm relieved. I'm worried you're gonna be okay."
"Really? I think Aqua is a very fine father."
Instead, I sometimes wonder if I am making a proper mother.
Thinking about it, I can see that they cared about each other the same way.
"Then I hope we grow up together. Me, Tiara and, of course, Lucia."
"Right. I think Aqua can do anything."
When Tiara Rose smiled as she worked hard, her hand came out of Aquasteed. They pinch both cheeks, and they attract them as they are.
"Ah... Aqua"
"... tiara"
Eyes meet, we call each other names, nature and lips overlap.
"Mmm..."
Repeating the gentle stumbling kiss several times, Aquasteed cleverly switches the position between herself and Tiara Rose.
When you are pushed down by the couch, a gentle kiss deepens.
"Huh..."
When Aquasteed's tongue is tangled, his body jumps unconsciously. Clinging to his back all the time, "cute" and sweet words whisper in between kisses.
When you can't breathe properly and open your mouth, the tangled tongues pull threads from each other.
But you're glad you finally called your name... I can't stop talking about Aquasteed.
Tiara Rose sinks into the couch with her breath rising.
"Ha ha..."
"I haven't been able to slow down much lately, so..."
Aquasteed honestly tells me he wants more.
"I didn't mean to disappoint you...... sorry?
Tiara Rose is kind of loving to the aquasteed who apologizes with no evil at all.
- I, too, kiss Aqua... what I like.
So there's no need to apologize at all.
Instead, I even think I'd be happy if I were asked for more.
"Aqua...... the"
"Hmm?"
Tiara Rose grabs the sleeves of Aquasteed's clothes and stares at them with a steady upward look. I hope this conveys my thoughts......
Seeing the very cute Tiara Rose, Aquasteed laughs bitterly that you've gone inside. I can't even be told to stop like this.
Tiara Rose slowly closes her eyes as she tries to kiss her face again.
A little more time for both of you - yes, I thought so.
"Uh-huh."
"-!"
The cry of Lucia Rose echoes into the room and opens her eyes all the time. I am so embarrassed because my lips were just about to touch me.
I'll take a look.
"... Yes"
I kiss my forehead all the time and Aquasteed goes under the basket of flowers.
"What's going on, Lucia? Did you miss me?"
Hold Lucia Rose gently and bring her to the couch as Aquasteed gives up. Then he smiled so much that he said, "Ah," in a good mood.
"You were glad your dad held you, Lucia"
"Ugh!
"That would be an honor."
The two of us chuckle and sit on the couch.
Leaning against Aquasteed's shoulder holding Lucia Rose, Tiara Rose babysits with a gentle voice.
"Shake the cradle of flowers and sleep in the good boy."
It's only night now, and Lucia Rose better get some sleep.
Then Aquasteed came along.
"Forest fairies put leaf futons on, sea fairies babysit tones with coral instruments, and sky fairies have a reassuring night-time visit."
The calm tenor voice makes me sleepy up to the tiara rose I'm hanging out with.
I'm sure Lucia Rose is the happiest person in the world to sleep with such a lovely babysitter.
I leaned in for a while as it was and spent time with the three members of my family.
