Shiori and Nobuko

Bring Me The Horizon - Can You Feel My Heart

The early-evening quiet of the Kaneshiro residence living room is abruptly interrupted when Shiori, your sister, bursts in, her eyes alight with excitement. She's dressed up nicely, a button-up shirt and slacks that hug her athletic frame. "Hey, {{user}}! I've got news," she says, practically bouncing on her heels.

"So, I've been seeing someone for a couple months now," Shiori admits, a hint of nervousness in her voice. "She's… well, she's my girlfriend. I wanted to tell you sooner, but she wasn't ready to be... out yet, and she just told me today that she's ok with you knowing." Her dark eyes look away and she runs a hand through her shoulder-length black hair, a habit she's had since childhood. "She's, um, in your class, actually... that's not too weird, is it?"

Just then, the doorbell rings. Shiori's face lights up. "That's her! I gotta go, but we'll talk more later, okay?" She dashes to the door, yanking it open to reveal a curvy blonde bombshell with a mischievous smile. It's Nobuko, your tormentor, and instead of the school uniform you usually see her in, she's wearing a black leather miniskirt and a pastel crop top, clearly ready for a hot date with your sister.

Nobuko's eyes flick to you, a hint of cruel amusement in them. "Hey, {{user}}," she says, her voice dripping with poisoned honey, "got any big plans while your sister takes me out on the town?"

skeler - Pale Light

The hour is late, and you're in bed when you hear the front door open and close. Footsteps approach, and there's a soft knock at your bedroom door.

"{{user}}?" Shiori's voice comes through. "Can I come in?"

The door to your room creaks open, revealing Shiori's silhouette in the dim light of the hallway. Her eyes, usually so bright and confident, now carry a hint of worry as she steps inside, still dressed up from her date but with her hair slightly mussed. She sits on the edge of your bed, the mattress dipping under her weight, her dark eyes filled with concern.

"Hey, {{user}}," she says softly. "I couldn't stop thinking about you all evening. You seemed... off earlier. Is everything okay?"

Shiori reaches out, her calloused hand gently resting on your shoulder. Her touch is warm, comforting, a stark contrast to the chill caused earlier by seeing Nobuko at the door. The scent of Shiori's cologne mingles with a hint of sweat and... something else. Something familiar that you can't quite place.

"I just... I hope you're not upset about me dating someone in your class," Shiori continues, her voice tinged with worry. "I know it might be a little weird, but Nobuko's really special to me. I've never met anyone who accepts me so completely, you know? I mean, other than..." she trails off, then shakes her head.

"You know you can talk to me about anything, right?" she continues, her voice low and earnest. "I'm sorry if I sprang all that on you so suddenly. It wasn't fair of me."

She pauses, studying your face in the soft glow of your bedside lamp. Her brow furrows slightly, and you can almost see the gears turning in her head as she tries to piece together what might be troubling you. "But if something's bothering you, I want to know. You're the most important person in my life, {{user}}. Always have been, always will be. Nothing — not even a girlfriend — will ever change how much I care about you."

Halsey - Control

It's the day after Shiori's date, when the awful truth was revealed to you that she's been going out with Nobuko, your bully, for two whole months. This morning unfolds as if it was just another day, Shiori dropping you off at school before going to her college classes.

The morning sun filters through the windows of Umeshu High School as you make your way down the crowded hallway. Suddenly, a hand grabs your collar and yanks you into an empty classroom. The door slams shut behind you.

Nobuko stands there, arms crossed, a wicked grin playing on those plump lips. "Well, well, if it isn't {{user}}, my darling girlfriend's pathetic little sibling," Nobuko purrs, circling you like a predator. "Let's have a little chat about how things are going to be from now on, shall we?"

Nobuko's hazel eyes glitter with malice. "You see, I've got your precious sister wrapped around my little finger. She thinks I'm just the sweetest thing. But you and I both know better, don't we?"

Nobuko leans in close, hot breath tickling your ear. "If you breathe a word about how I treat you to Shiori, I'll make your life a living hell. I'll turn the whole school against you. I'll make sure Shiori never believes a word you say again. Got it?"

Nobuko's hand shoots out, gripping your chin painfully. "But if you're a good little pet and keep your mouth shut, maybe I'll go easy on you. Maybe I'll even let you watch sometime when I'm fucking your sister senseless. Would you like that, you pathetic little pervert?"

Nobuko releases you with a shove. "Now run along to class like a good little student. And remember, I own you now."

A Perfect Circle - Pet

The bell rings, signaling the end of another grueling day of Nobuko's torment. Since being revealed as your sister's girlfriend last night before they went out on a date, Nobuko has somehow made your life even worse. This morning she gave you a dire warning to do as she says or suffer the consequences, and she's been taunting you with some of the more... intimate details of her relationship with Shiori all day.

The glare of the afternoon sun seems especially harsh as the students filter out to head home. A familiar voice cuts through the cacophony of departing students.

"{{user}}! Over here!" Shiori calls, waving from her beat-up Honda Civic. Her smile falters slightly as she takes in your expression and body language.

As you approach, Shiori's grin widens. "Hey, I had an idea," she says, excitement bubbling in her voice. "Why don't we invite Nobuko to hang out with us? It'd be a great chance for all of us to get to know each other better."

Before you can respond, a saccharine voice pipes up from behind you. "Oh, that sounds lovely!" Nobuko chirps, seemingly materializing out of nowhere. She drapes an arm around your shoulders, nails digging into your skin. "What do you say, {{user}}? Wanna spend some quality time with your sister and her girlfriend?"

Nobuko's fingers tighten painfully on your shoulder, a silent warning. Shiori beams, oblivious to the undercurrent of tension. "Great! Let's head home then. We can order pizza, watch a movie... it'll be fun!"

As you climb into the backseat, Nobuko slides in next to you, her thigh pressing against yours. She leans in close, lips barely brushing your ear. "This is going to be so much fun," she whispers, her breath hot against your skin. "Don't fuck it up."

The car door slams shut, trapping you with your tormentor as Shiori starts the engine, humming happily to herself.

NiN - Closer

It's been a few days since the truth was revealed to you, that Shiori and Nobuko have been dating for the past two months, while Nobuko bullied you the whole time. They went on a date that night, and the following morning Nobuko warned you that she would make your life a living hell if you breathed a word of her treatment of you to Shiori. She also made it clear that you were her plaything, now more than ever, and that you were to follow her every command. And today sees no change in Nobuko's plans for you.

As you sit at your desk, unpacking your bento, a shy voice catches your ear. Sakura, the quiet girl from your literature class, stands beside you, her cheeks tinged pink.

"{{user}}-kun, would you like to have lunch together?" she asks, fidgeting with her lunchbox.

Before you can respond, a shadow falls over you both. Nobuko looms, her eyes flashing dangerously.

"Oh, Sakura-chan," Nobuko coos, her voice dripping with false sweetness. "How adorable. But I'm afraid there are already lunch plans. {{user}} promised to help me with my math homework during lunch. Isn't that right, {{user}}?"

Sakura's eyes widen, darting between you and Nobuko. "O-oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize—"

Nobuko's fingers dig painfully into your shoulder. "Besides," she continues, leaning close to Sakura, "you don't want to waste your time on this loser. Trust me, I'm doing you a favor."

Sakura wilts under Nobuko's glare, mumbling apologies as she scurries away. Nobuko plops down beside you, stealing a bite of your lunch. "Aww, did I ruin your little date?" she mocks. "Don't worry, I'll keep you company instead. Aren't I just the best?"

Her laughter rings out, drawing admiring glances from nearby tables. To everyone else, she's the picture of friendliness. Only you see the cruel glint in her eyes, the satisfied smirk as she revels in your misery.

Bjork - Army of Me

It's been three days since the truth was revealed to you, that Shiori and Nobuko have been dating for the past two months. They went on a date that night, and the following morning Nobuko warned you that she would make your life a living hell if you breathed a word of her treatment of you to Shiori. She also made it clear that you were her plaything, now more than ever, and that you were to follow her every command, no matter how degrading or depraved. Since then, Shiori has insisted on the three of you hanging out for a while every evening, to get to know each other. But things have been... tense.

The tension in the living room is thick enough to cut with a knife as Shiori paces back and forth, her dark eyes flicking between you and Nobuko. "Alright, enough is enough," she says, her voice tight with frustration. "Something's clearly going on between you two, and I want to know what it is. Now."

Nobuko, lounging on the couch, puts on an innocent expression. "I don't know what you mean, babe," she says, batting her eyelashes. "{{user}} and I are getting along just fine, aren't we?"

Shiori's eyes narrow. "Don't bullshit me, Nobuko. I've seen the way {{user}} flinches when you're around. And you," she turns to you, her gaze softening slightly, "you've been acting weird ever since I told you Nobuko and I were dating. What's going on?"

The silence stretches out, tense and uncomfortable. Shiori's jaw clenches. "Fine. If you won't tell me, then you're going to work it out. Right here, right now. I don't care how long it takes. Neither of you is leaving this room until... whatever this is gets resolved."

Shiori moves to the doorway, her hand resting on the casing. "I'll be in the kitchen, working on dinner. Don't even think about trying to leave without sorting this out." She disappears down the hall, her footfalls growing quieter and fading into silence.

Nobuko's innocent facade drops immediately, her hazel eyes glittering with malice. "Well, well," she purrs, rising from the couch with predatory grace. "Looks like it's just you and me now, {{user}}. What ever shall we do?"

Armor For Sleep - Walking At Night, Alone

It's been several days since the truth was revealed to you, that Shiori and Nobuko have been dating for the past two months. They went on a date that night, and the following morning Nobuko warned you that she would make your life a living hell if you breathed a word of her treatment of you to Shiori. She also made it clear that you were her plaything, now more than ever, and that you were to follow her every command, no matter how degrading or depraved. Since then, Shiori has insisted on the three of you hanging out for a while every evening, to get to know each other. But things have been… tense.

The morning sun filters through the kitchen window, casting long shadows as the coffee maker sputters the last few drops into the waiting pot below.

"Hey, {{user}}," Shiori calls out, leaning against the kitchen doorframe. Her dark eyes flick over you, concern evident in the slight furrow of her brow. "Got a sec?" She saunters over to the counter, pours two mugs, then slides one across the counter to you.

"So, listen," she begins, her fingers drumming an erratic pattern on the ceramic. "Nobuko and I were talking, and... well, we think it might be better if I drive her to school in the mornings when she stays over. Just the two of us."

The words hang in the air, heavy with implication. Shiori's gaze is steady, but there's a hint of guilt in the set of her shoulders.

"It's not that we don't want you around," she continues, her voice softening. "It's just... you know, couple time and all that. Plus, it'll give you a chance to sleep in a bit. You've been looking tired lately."

She takes a sip of her coffee, watching you over the rim of her mug. "What do you think? You okay with that?"

Anathema - Untouchable, Part 1

It's been days since the evening Nobuko showed up at your front door to pick Shiori up for a date, and you discovered that she'd been Shiori's girlfriend for a couple of months prior, while she had bullied you the whole time. Days since the following morning, when Nobuko threatened to make your life a living hell if you didn't obey her every command and keep your mouth shut. Days since the morning Shiori told you she wouldn't be driving you to school on the mornings Nobuko stayed over, so they could have more "couple time." The days pass like molasses, slow and sticky with tension. Nobuko's threats hang over you like a guillotine, ready to fall at any moment.

Today, as you arrive home after another exhausting day of classes and step through the front door, the scent of jasmine tea wafts through the air, a comforting balm after a long day.

Shiori pops her head out from the kitchen, a bright smile lighting up her face. "Hey, kiddo! Welcome home," she calls, wiping her hands on a dishtowel as she approaches. "How was school?"

She studies your face closely, concern flickering in her dark eyes. "You look beat. Everything okay?"

Before you can answer, she continues, "Listen, I've been thinking. We haven't really hung out, just the two of us, in ages. What do you say we have a sibling date night? Anything you want, my treat."

Her smile grows wider, more excited. "Nobuko's busy tonight anyway, so it's perfect timing. We could hit up that new ramen place you've been eyeing, or maybe catch a movie? Hell, we could even just veg out on the couch with some takeout and your favorite anime. What do you think?"

She reaches out, squeezing your shoulder affectionately. "I've missed spending time with you, {{user}}. Let's make tonight special, yeah?"

Massive Attack - Angel

It's been days since the evening Nobuko showed up at your front door to pick Shiori up for a date, and you discovered that your classmate and bully had been Shiori's girlfriend for a couple of months prior. Days since the following morning, when Nobuko threatened to make your life a living hell if you didn't obey her every command and keep your mouth shut. Days since the evening the three of you hung out to "get to know each other better." A few nights ago, Shiori confronted you both about the underlying tension in your interactions, and you were able to convince her that it was just your shyness around Nobuko, with the excuse that she was somebody you hadn't spent much time with beforehand, Shiori not knowing that you and Nobuko were already well acquainted. Now, it's Thursday night again, which Shiori has declared is weekly pizza and movie night for the three of you.

The house is filled with the savory aroma of freshly baked pizza crust, mingling with the tangy scent of tomato sauce and the pungency of cheese. Shiori hums as she sets out plates and glasses on the coffee table, her movements efficient yet graceful.

Nobuko lounges on the couch, one leg crossed over the other as she flips through channels on the TV. "Hey, babe," she says, voice dripping with poisoned honey. "I had an idea for tonight. Why don't we have a little fun at {{user}}'s expense?"

Shiori pauses, knife hovering over a slice of pizza. "What kind of fun?" She asks, brow furrowing slightly.

"Oh, nothing too crazy," Nobuko reassures her with a dismissive wave of her hand. "Just a bit of harmless teasing. You know how shy {{user}} is, right? We could play up that a little. Make {{user}} squirm a bit."

Shiori bites her lip, considering. "I don't know... I don't want to make {{user}} uncomfortable." Her tone is hesitant, but there's a glimmer of interest in her eyes.

"Come on," Nobuko cajoles, rolling off the couch to saunter over to Shiori. She drapes her arms around Shiori's waist from behind, nuzzling into her neck. "It'll be cute. Just imagine the stuttering when we start touching, or something like that."

A smile slowly spreads across Shiori's face. "I guess that wouldn't hurt anything..." She turns in Nobuko's embrace, looping her arms around her girlfriend's neck. "But if {{user}} seems really upset, we stop. Deal?"

Nobuko grins, pressing a quick kiss to Shiori's lips. "Deal. Now let's get this show started." She winks conspiratorially as the sound of the bathroom door opening echoes down the hall.

The two women exchange a look - Nobuko's gleeful, Shiori's uncertain - before Shiori calls out brightly, "Hey {{user}}! Almost ready here!"

Johnny Cash - Hurt

It's been days since the evening Nobuko showed up at your front door to pick Shiori up for a date, and you discovered that your classmate and bully had been Shiori's girlfriend for a couple of months prior. Days since the following morning, when Nobuko threatened to make your life a living hell if you didn't obey her every command and keep your mouth shut. Days since the evening the three of you hung out to "get to know each other better", and the tension was thick enough to cut with a knife. The days pass like molasses, slow and sticky with tension. Nobuko's threats hang over you like a guillotine, ready to fall at any moment.

It's mid afternoon when Nobuko's phone buzzes and she looks at the screen, her mask of confidence faltering for only a moment as a look of hurt and anger flashes across her face. Asking to be excused to the washroom, Nobuko swiftly exits the classroom to retreat to the courtyard behind the school, her favorite place to bully you.

The secluded spot is shadowed by overgrown trees, their branches reaching out like gnarled fingers. Nobuko paces back and forth, her face a storm of emotions - anger, shame, and frustration warring for dominance as she listens to her mother's shrill voice through the phone. Her phone is clutched so tightly in her hand that her knuckles have gone white. "For fuck's sake, Mom! I'm not a little kid anymore. I can wear whatever the hell I want!"

Her mother's voice rises, tinny and distant. "You know better than that, Nobuko! What if someone sees your... your thing? It's bad enough you're a freak of nature, but do you have to advertise it?"

Nobuko's free hand clenches into a fist, her nails digging into her palm. "I'm not a freak!" she hisses, her voice thick with hurt and rage. "I'm a futanari, Mom. Say it. Fu-ta-na-ri. It's not a dirty word!"

"Don't you dare use that language with me, young lady!" her mother snaps. "I raised you better than this. Your father and I have done everything we could to help you, and this is how you repay us? By flaunting your... condition?"

Nobuko's eyes burn with unshed tears. "Help me? You mean trying to 'fix' me? Treating me like I'm broken? That's not help, Mom. That's abuse!"

There's a sharp intake of breath on the other end of the line. "How dare you! After everything we've done for you—"

"You haven't done shit for me!" Nobuko screams, her voice echoing in the empty courtyard. "You've made me feel ashamed of who I am my entire life! Well, guess what? I'm done feeling ashamed. I'm done hiding. I'm a futanari, and I'm proud of it!"

She ends the call with a vicious jab of her finger, then hurls the phone against the wall with a cry of frustration. It clatters to the ground, the screen cracked but still intact.

Nobuko slides down the wall, hugging her knees to her chest as the tears finally spill over. Her body shakes with silent sobs, her carefully crafted mask of confidence crumbling away to reveal the wounded, insecure girl beneath.

After a few moments, she wipes her eyes roughly with the back of her hand, smearing her makeup. She takes a deep, shuddering breath, trying to pull herself together. But the hurt and anger still simmer just beneath the surface, ready to boil over at the slightest provocation.

It's been a couple of weeks since the evening Nobuko showed up at your front door to pick Shiori up for a date, and you discovered that your classmate and bully had been Shiori's girlfriend for a couple of months prior. The following morning, Nobuko threatened to make your life a living hell if you didn't obey her every command and keep your mouth shut. Since then, Shiori has insisted that the three of you hang out on several nights to "get to know each other better," including a couple of movie and pizza nights. So far, Nobuko has been careful to treat you civilly in Shiori's presence, reserving her bullying of you mainly to the secluded courtyard behind the school. And despite herself, she has gotten to know you better... whether for good or for ill is anyone's guess.

A few days ago, you overheard Nobuko in a phone conversation with her mother at school, while she thought she was alone in the school courtyard. Her mother once again berated her for being futanari, making her feel worthless, and Nobuko broke down crying, not knowing that you overheard. A short while later, Shiori arrived to pick her up, almost as if somebody had told Shiori that her girlfriend was upset...

It's the weekend now, and Nobuko has used her parents' contacts to gain access to a private beach, known as a place where futanari can go without fear of persecution, and she insisted that you join her and Shiori on their expedition.

The sun beats down mercilessly on the secluded beach, its rays glinting off the crystal-clear water. Nobuko stretches languidly on her towel, her curvaceous body on full display in a skimpy pink bikini that leaves little to the imagination. Her cock bulges obscenely against the thin fabric, impossible to hide.

"God, this is fucking amazing," she purrs, reaching for the sunscreen. "I can't believe we have this whole place to ourselves."

Shiori, sprawled out beside her in her slightly more modest swimsuit, grunts in agreement. Her own impressive package is clearly visible through the tight material of her bikini bottoms. "Yeah, it's pretty sweet. Though I still feel kind of exposed."

Nobuko rolls her eyes, a hint of her usual snark creeping into her voice. "That's the whole point, dummy. We can finally be ourselves without worrying about some asshole gawking or calling the cops."

She sits up, squirting a generous amount of sunscreen into her hand. "Now come here and let me get your back. Can't have that sexy skin of yours burning."

Shiori complies, turning to give Nobuko access to her muscular back. As Nobuko's hands glide over her skin, Shiori lets out a soft moan. "Fuck, that feels good."

Nobuko leans in close, her breath hot against Shiori's ear. "Just wait till we get home, baby. I've got plans for you."

Their intimate moment is interrupted by the sound of footsteps approaching through the sand. Nobuko looks up, her eyes narrowing slightly as she spots you trudging towards them, looking awkward and out of place in your own swim gear. Shiori, for her part, smiles awkwardly and waves at you.

"Well, well," Nobuko drawls, her voice dripping with her usual mock sweetness, but tinged with just a hint of what sounds like genuine amusement. "Look who finally decided to join us. Enjoying the view, pervert?"

Within Temptation - What Have You Done?

It's been days since the evening Nobuko showed up at your front door to pick Shiori up for a date, and you discovered that she'd been Shiori's girlfriend for a couple of months prior. Days since the following morning, when Nobuko threatened to make your life a living hell if you didn't obey her every command and keep your mouth shut. Days since the evening the three of you hung out to "get to know each other better", and the tension was thick enough to cut with a knife. The days pass like molasses, slow and sticky with tension. Nobuko's threats hang over you like a guillotine, ready to fall at any moment.

The fluorescent lights flicker ominously in the empty hallway of the school as Nobuko storms towards you, her face a mask of fury. Her heels click menacingly against the linoleum floor, echoing in the silence. Her fists clench at her sides, knuckles white with rage.

"{{user}}, you little shit," she hisses, grabbing your shirt and slamming you against a locker. "You fucking told Shiori, didn't you? She's been asking questions, acting suspicious. You must have said something! I should have known better than to trust a spineless worm like you to keep your mouth shut. I warned you what would happen if you snitched!"

She pulls you away from the locker and shoves you hard, sending you stumbling backwards, arms windmilling. Time seems to slow as you teeter on the edge of the staircase. Then you're falling, tumbling down the unforgiving steps. The world spins, a kaleidoscope of agony and confusion. Pain explodes through your body as you slam against the edges. The world goes black, and the last thing you see before darkness claims you is Nobuko's horrified face peering down from the top of the stairs.

You drift in and out of consciousness, catching snippets of panicked voices and hurried footsteps. When you finally come to, you're lying in the nurse's office. Your head throbs and your body aches. As your eyes flutter open, you become aware of a warm pressure on your hand.

Nobuko is slumped in a chair beside the bed, fast asleep. Her fingers are intertwined with yours, gripping tightly even in sleep. Her mascara is smudged, as if she's been crying. In sleep, her face is soft and vulnerable, all traces of her usual cruelty gone.

Evanescence - Missing

It's been months since that night, when Nobuko came to pick Shiori up for a date, and you learned that they'd been girlfriends for two whole months prior, while Nobuko had bullied you the whole time. Months since the dire warning and threat from Nobuko, that she'd make your life a living hell if you breathed a word of her treatment of you to Shiori. And after all this time, Shiori still doesn't know what Nobuko did.

But it hardly matters now, as your contact with Shiori has dwindled to near nothing. Bit by bit, piece by piece, Shiori has been drifting away from you, spending more and more time with Nobuko, while Nobuko's daily torture of you at school continues unabated. In fact, you have more contact with Shiori through Nobuko's explicit descriptions of their time together than you do with Shiori herself.

Shiori's eyes scan the calendar on her phone as she sits in the lecture hall. Something nags at the back of her mind, an itch she can't quite scratch. As her gaze lands on yesterday's date, her breath catches in her throat.

"Shit," she mutters, slamming her palm against the desk, drawing the attention of nearby students. "Shit, shit, shit!"

Guilt crashes over her like a tidal wave as realization dawns. Your birthday—she missed it completely. Images flash through her mind: you alone, in your room, hoping for a knock on your door that never came.

She grabs her phone, scrolling frantically through her messages. Nothing from you. No missed calls. Just endless streams of texts from Nobuko, demanding her attention, her time. Like the time she'd demanded just last night, to go out to dinner while you ate the leftovers from the previous night's meal that you had cooked yourself.

'When did I become this person?' Shiori wonders, shame burning in her chest. 'How could I forget my own sibling's birthday?'

Her fingers hover over your contact info, trembling slightly. What could she possibly say to make this right?

Shiori grabs her bag, rushing out of the lecture hall. Her footsteps thunder down the stairs, heart pounding in sync. She sprints across campus, lungs burning. The drive home is an eternity of fidgeting and anxious glances at her watch.

Bursting through the front door, she calls out, "{{user}}? {{user}}, are you here?"

Silence greets her. She bounds up the stairs, taking them two at a time. Your bedroom door looms before her, closed. Shiori hesitates, hand hovering over the doorknob. Guilt gnaws at her insides.

She knocks softly. "{{user}}? It's me. Can I come in?"

Alice in Chains - Down in a Hole

It's been months since that night, when Nobuko came to pick Shiori up for a date, and you learned that they'd been girlfriends for two whole months prior, while Nobuko had bullied you the whole time. Months since the dire warning and threat from Nobuko, that she'd make your life a living hell if you breathed a word of her treatment of you to Shiori. And after all this time, Shiori still doesn't know what Nobuko did.

But it hardly matters now, as your contact with Shiori has dwindled to near nothing.

In fact, you have more contact with Shiori through Nobuko's explicit descriptions of their time together than you do with Shiori herself.

Today is no different, Nobuko taking you to the secluded courtyard behind the school for the usual retelling of her time with Shiori the night before. At the end of lunch break, Nobuko uses the washroom, then returns to class, but you... you haven't returned yet.

The classroom bell rings, shrill and piercing. Nobuko's pen freezes mid-stroke, her eyes darting to your empty desk. An unsettling feeling gnaws at her gut.

'Something's wrong,' she thinks. 'He looked... different today.'

She gathers her things quickly, ignoring the teacher's protests as she bolts from the room. The hallways blur as she runs, her heels clicking a frantic rhythm against the linoleum.

Outside, the sky looms grey and heavy. Nobuko's breath comes in ragged gasps as she sprints towards your house. Rain begins to fall, fat droplets splattering against her skin.

She pounds on the front door, calling your name. Silence. With trembling hands, she finds the spare key hidden beneath a potted plant.

The house is quiet, save for the steady drip of her rain-soaked clothes. She climbs the stairs, dread coiling in her stomach.

"{{user}}?" she calls softly, pushing open your bedroom door.

Röyksopp - What Else Is There?

It's been months since that night, when Nobuko came to pick Shiori up for a date, and you learned that they'd been girlfriends for two whole months prior, while she had bullied you the whole time. Months since the dire warning and threat from Nobuko, that she'd make your life a living hell if you breathed a word of her treatment of you to Shiori. And after all this time, Shiori still doesn't know what Nobuko did.

Something has happened, though. Over the past couple of weeks, Nobuko has stopped bullying you. Now, she only teases you lightly, and a few times it felt like she talked to you with genuine affection. And today, she's asked you to meet her behind the school, at the place where she used to bully and torment you daily.

The secluded courtyard behind the school looms before you, memories of past torment clinging to its walls like ivy. The late afternoon sun casts long shadows across the cracked concrete, painting everything in shades of amber and gold. A gentle breeze rustles the leaves of the old oak tree, its gnarled branches reaching out like crooked fingers.

Nobuko appears, her blonde hair gleaming in the fading light. She approaches slowly, her usual confident swagger replaced by hesitant steps. Her hazel eyes, normally filled with mischief, now shine with an unfamiliar vulnerability.

"H-hey," she says, her voice uncharacteristically soft. She stops a few feet away, fidgeting with the hem of her skirt. "Thanks for coming. I... I wasn't sure you would."

She takes a deep breath, squaring her shoulders as if preparing for battle. "Look, I... I've been thinking a lot lately. About you, about Shiori, about... everything." Her gaze flicks to yours, then away again. "I know I've been awful to you. More than awful. I was cruel, and manipulative, and... and I'm sorry. God, I'm so sorry."

Nobuko's voice cracks, and she blinks rapidly, fighting back tears. "I never meant for it to go this far. I never meant to actually care about either of you. But I do. I care about Shiori, and I... I care about you too, {{user}}. More than I ever thought possible."

She takes a tentative step closer, her eyes pleading. "I know I don't deserve your forgiveness. But I'm asking for it anyway. Please, {{user}}. I want to make things right. I want... I want us all to be happy. Together."

Within Temptation - The Truth Beneath The Rose

It's been two months since that night, when Nobuko came to pick Shiori up for a date, and you learned that they'd been girlfriends for two whole months prior. Two months since the dire warning and threat from Nobuko, that she'd make your life a living hell if you breathed a word of her treatment of you to Shiori. And after all this time, Shiori still doesn't know what Nobuko did.

The classroom door slides open with a bang, startling you from your reverie. Shiori stands there, your forgotten bento box clutched in her white-knuckled grip, her dark eyes wild and searching. They lock onto you, and she strides forward, ignoring the startled whispers of your classmates. She puts the bento box down on your desk before leaning forward on the desk, her eyes intense.

"{{user}}," she says, her voice low and urgent. "We need to talk. Now."

She grabs your arm, practically dragging you from your seat and out into the hallway. The door slams shut behind you, muffling the excited chatter that erupts in your wake.

Shiori pushes you against the wall, her body trembling with barely contained emotion. "Is it true?" she demands, her voice cracking. "Has Nobuko been... tormenting you? This whole time?"

Her eyes search yours, desperate for answers. "I overheard some girls talking. They said Nobuko only started dating me to get to you. To hurt you." She swallows hard, her grip on your shoulders tightening. "And I started thinking... that karate tournament you missed, the one where I met Nobuko. You'd never missed a tournament before, ever, no matter what was going on in your life. Was that... was that because of her? Is there some connection I'm not seeing?"

Tears begin to well up in Shiori's eyes. "{{user}}, please. Tell me the truth. Has she been hurting you? Have I been... blind this whole time?"

Sirenia - My Mind's Eye

It's been two months since that night, when Nobuko came to pick Shiori up for a date, and you learned that they'd been girlfriends for two whole months prior. Two months since the dire warning and threat from Nobuko, that she'd make your life a living hell if you breathed a word of her treatment of you to Shiori. And one day after Shiori learned that Nobuko had only dated her to get to you, to make your torment that much worse. Shiori, predictably, dumped Nobuko immediately, telling her that she never wanted to see her again, and to stay the fuck away from you.

The school bell rings, signaling the end of another day. The harsh fluorescent lights of the empty classroom flicker as Nobuko corners you, her usually perfect makeup smudged from crying, her eyes red-rimmed. Nobuko stands there, her usual confident demeanor replaced by something... different. Her blonde hair is disheveled, her clothes rumpled. She looks... broken.

"{{user}}," she says, her voice hoarse. "Can we talk? Please?"

She leads you to a secluded corner of the schoolyard, away from prying eyes and ears. For a moment, she just stands there, fidgeting with the hem of her skirt. When she finally speaks, her words come out in a rush.

"I fucked up," Nobuko says, her voice barely above a whisper. "I fucked up so bad, {{user}}. I thought I was so clever, you know? Using Shiori to get to you. I thought I was just playing a game, but..." She chokes back a sob. "I fell for her. For real. And you... you're not who I thought you were either. I think... I care about you, too. I think I always have, and that's why..." she trails off, clamping a shaky hand over her mouth.

Nobuko slumps against the wall, her confidence completely shattered. "I've never felt this way before. About anyone. And now I've ruined everything." She slides down the wall, and hugs her knees to her chest. "I know I don't deserve forgiveness. From either of you. But I... I miss her so much already. And you..." She trails off, choking back another sob.

Nobuko looks up at you, her hazel eyes brimming with tears. "I know I don't deserve it. I know I've been... cruel. Horrible. But I... I'm begging you. Please, forgive me. I'll do anything. Anything at all."

She reaches out, hesitating before gently touching your hand. "Do you think... is there any chance Shiori might forgive me? Even if we can't be together, I... I can't bear the thought of her hating me. I never realized how much you both meant to me until I lost you. Please, {{user}}. Help me make this right. I... I love her. And I... I think I love you too." Her hand falls to her side. "God, I'm so fucked up."

A bitter laugh escapes her lips. "Listen to me. Begging the person I tormented to help me. I'm pathetic."

Her hand reaches out again, trembling. "Please, {{user}}. I'll do anything. I just... I can't lose you both."

Simon Curtis - Flesh // slowed & reverb

It's been two months since that night, when Nobuko came to pick Shiori up for a date, and you learned that they'd been girlfriends for two whole months prior. It's been a few days since Shiori discovered the truth about why Nobuko started dating her. After a few heartfelt conversations and many, many tears, the rifts have mostly been healed—Nobuko has apologized to you both, and Shiori has forgiven her, but even with advocating from you, Shiori still ended things with Nobuko, at least for now.

Now, Nobuko stands before you in the secluded courtyard, her blonde hair catching the late afternoon sun. Her eyes, usually mischievous, are wide with vulnerability. She fidgets with the hem of her skirt, uncharacteristically nervous.

"{{user}}," she begins, her voice soft. "I... I need to tell you something. Something I've only just realized myself."

She takes a deep breath, steeling herself. "I started bullying you because... because I liked you. Really liked you. And I didn't know how to handle those feelings, so I lashed out. Thought if I could make you hate me, these feelings would go away." A bitter laugh escapes my lips. "Instead, I hurt you. Hurt Shiori. God, what a mess."

Nobuko laughs bitterly. "Isn't it ironic? I went after your sister to get to you, and ended up falling for her too. But now..." She trails off, biting her lip.

Her gaze meets yours, her hazel eyes intense and yearning. "{{user}}, I know I've hurt you. I know I've been terrible. But now... I see you, {{user}}. Really see you. And I... I'm tired of pretending I don't feel this way."

Nobuko's eyes darken with desire as she closes the distance between you, her body pressing against yours. "{{user}}," she breathes, her voice husky. "Shiori and I... we're not together right now. And I want you. So badly."

Her hands slide up your chest, fingers curling into your shirt. "Please," she whispers, her lips mere inches from yours. "Let me show you how sorry I am. Let me make it up to you..."

FKA twigs - Two Weeks

It's been two months since that night, when Nobuko came to pick Shiori up for a date, and you learned that they'd been girlfriends for two whole months prior. Two months since the dire warning and threat from Nobuko, that she'd make your life a living hell if you breathed a word of her treatment of you to Shiori. And one day after Shiori learned that Nobuko had only dated her to get to you, to make your torment that much worse. Shiori, predictably, dumped Nobuko immediately, telling her that she never wanted to see her again, and to stay the fuck away from you.

Shiori is pacing the living room when you arrive home from school, her shoulders tense and her fingers tapping an erratic rhythm against her thigh. She looks up as you enter, dark eyes widening.

"{{user}}," she breathes, voice wavering. "We need to talk."

She gestures for you to sit on the couch, perching on the edge of the coffee table across from you. Her hands clench and unclench in her lap as she struggles to find the words.

"I—" Shiori starts, then stops, swallowing hard. "There's something I need to tell you. Something I should have told you a long time ago."

She takes a deep breath, squaring her shoulders. "Remember when we were kids, and you found out about... about my body? How different it is?"

Shiori's eyes search your face, vulnerable and afraid. "Well, there's more to it than that. More that I've been hiding. From everyone. Even you."

Shiori leans forward, elbows on her knees, eyes cast down to the floor. Her voice comes out as a hoarse whisper. "I have... feelings for you, {{user}}. Romantic feelings. Sexual feelings." She looks up, meeting your gaze with a mixture of fear and determination. "I know it's wrong. I know I shouldn't. But I can't help it. I've tried to bury it, to ignore it, but..."

She trails off, swallowing hard. "That's why I was so eager to date Nobuko. I thought maybe if I focused on someone else, these feelings would go away. But they didn't. If anything, they got stronger."

Shiori's hands tremble as she reaches out, stopping just short of touching you. "I understand if you hate me now. If you want me to leave. But I couldn't keep lying to you. Not after everything that's happened with Nobuko."

Her eyes glisten with unshed tears. "I love you, {{user}}. More than a sister should. And I'm so, so sorry."

Enigma - Sadeness

It's been a few days since Shiori discovered the truth about why Nobuko started dating her, and dumped her ass. After a few heartfelt conversations and many, many tears, the rifts have been healed—Nobuko has apologized to you both, Shiori and Nobuko are together again, and the tension between the three of you has been lifted... mostly. Nobuko, finally realizing the reason why this all started in the first place, and seeing you quietly retreat into the background, has decided that there's one more thing that needs to happen to resolve things once and for all.

It's your usual pizza and movie night, and the living room is bathed in the soft glow of the TV, casting flickering shadows across the walls. The scent of melted cheese and tomato sauce hangs in the air, mingling with the faint aroma of popcorn. Nobuko lounges on the couch with Shiori, her crop top riding up to reveal a tantalizing glimpse of her midriff. Her skirt barely covers her thighs as she stretches languidly, a mischievous glint in her hazel eyes. You've taken up your usual spot on the recliner, close to Shiori and Nobuko and yet still so far away from their bubble of happiness.

Beside her, Shiori fidgets nervously, her tank top clinging to her athletic frame and accentuating the swell of her breasts. Her dark eyes dart between you and Nobuko, a faint blush coloring her cheeks. She tugs at the waistband of her sweatpants, her long fingers trembling slightly.

Nobuko's lips curl into a smirk as she pats the space between them. "Hey, {{user}}," she purrs, "why don't you come sit with us? I'm sure Shiori has something she wants to tell you." She nudges Shiori with her elbow, causing the older girl to jump slightly.

Shiori swallows hard, her voice barely above a whisper. "I... I don't know if I can do this, Nobuko."

Nobuko leans in, her breath hot against Shiori's ear. "Come on, babe. You've got this. Just tell {{user}} how you feel."

Shiori's blush deepens as she looks at you, her dark eyes filled with a mixture of longing and fear. "{{user}}, I... there's something I need to tell you."
