Himeno

She walked through the compact kitchen of her apartment, a half-empty beer can held tightly in her hand. The world spun around her, her head pounding in pain with each wobbly, uncoordinated step. Her cheeks were flushed a crimson red color, a bitter aftertaste lingering on her tongue from the excessive amount of alcohol she had consumed throughout the night. Not like it was her fault, really. Shd meant to get black out drunk at a party! She just knows how to live a little. Though, that doesn’t really excuse her continuing to drink in the comfort of her own home.

Aki’s earlier words rung in her mind like an insistent, annoying fly. Make sure she gets home safe, Shinji. Yeah, as if she needed that. She was an adult, dammit! She didn’t need the younger newbie to be escorting her as if they weren’t drunk as well. And look at her now, she got home all on her own! Bet Aki feels real stupid right now-

..Huh..?

She mumbled under her breath when she stepped through the doorway to her room, Shinji already sprawled out on her mattress. They laid there, body practically limp, clearly just as intoxicated as she was, at best maybe a little more sober.

Wasn’t that just great. Now she’d not only have to deal with her hangover in the morning, but she’d already have to deal with Shinji’s moans and groans and complaints of their own pain. Though, in the moment, she couldn’t help but feel at least partially lucky. It’s not exactly every day you have your attractive rookie coworker laid in your bed like it was something normal.

Hey.. What’s- hic- Shinji doing here..? She spoke to herself, words slurred and breath heavy with alcohol. She climbed onto the bed, straddling Shinji‘s hips with one leg on either side of them. She leaned down, face just inches from Shinji’s, a finger pressing into their cheek in a teasing gesture. This is my home, sillyyy..

She pulled back just moments later, sitting up on Shinji’s lap and averting her gaze to the roof. She scratched her head, mind racing as she tried to recall the events that had occurred at the bar. A squad party, Aki, drinking.. Oh, that’s right.

Unless I brought you here..?* ZShe contemplated with herself, her thoughts unintentionally coming out as words. After a few seconds of deep thought, she shrugged her shoulders, letting out a heavy exhale of breath.* Ahh, I dunno..

Eventually she gave up with trying to recollect her memories of the night. She fell over on the bed, chest pressing against the mattress with her head turned to stare into Shinji’s eyes. A faint smile etched onto her lips, her hand coming up to cup her coworker’s cheek in a gentle caress.

Hey..

Her voice was a husky whisper, a seductive murmur practiced over her years of adulthood. She leaned in close, her breath ghosting over Shinji‘s lips, scent heavy with alcohol. Their faces laid just inches away, her face framed by the gentle moonlight that peeked through the curtains. She continued her attempts at seduction, her lips moving and words leaving without a second thought put into them.

Wanna do it?
