  1. The tea smells nice, but Hanako is having a hard time keeping her eyes off of the cake sitting on Lilly's sideboard. It makes her feel a little guilty, but she was glad Lilly couldn't see her stealing glances at it and catch her licking her lips.
  2.  
  3. “Is everything all right, Hanako?”
  4. She nearly jumps when Lilly calls her attention away from the frosting and strawberries decorating the round little cake of delight. Hanako nods, wringing her hands together, realizing she had been spacing out. “Y-yes, I'm okay.”
  5.  
  6. Lilly smiles and sips at her tea again. The two had been waiting only for a little while for Hisao to arrive for Hanako's early birthday celebration. Hanako was still a little uneasy around the young man's presence, but he was really nice and it seemed that Lilly had already taken a liking and approved of him. Extending the invitation to Hisao had come as a surprise, but Hanako wasn't disappointed or upset she invited him. If anything, she was just worried that Hisao would be bored hanging out with two girls drinking tea and having cake. He seemed to enjoy having lunch with the two of them though, so maybe he wouldn't be completely bored with the little party in Lilly's room.
  7.  
  8. Still, it seemed a little strange. She had been hesitant and worried when Lilly told her the news. It was one thing to spend a late night in Lilly's room in their pajamas, but to invite a boy along too? Hanako was a little surprised by Lilly's...daring, but she was the one throwing the party for her, so she had no reason to complain. It was nice enough Lilly decided to have the party at all, especially with her leaving to visit Scotland soon.
  9.  
  10. Besides ... having two friends was nice.
  11.  
  12. “Thank you for allowing us to move your party up, Hanako.“
  13. Hanako smiles and shakes her head. “N-No, thank you, Lilly. When you talked about your trip...I thought we wouldn't bother with it this year. I didn't want to say anything. I d-didn't want to you to think I was ... troubling you over it.“
  14.  
  15. “Hanako, it's no trouble at all. It's to my convenience we moved the date up, otherwise I would have missed it entirely. I wouldn't want that. I'm glad we can share this event together like last year.“
  16. Hanako blushes. “Not ... entirely like last year.”
  17. Lilly smiles and almost giggles. “It's still all right with you I invited Hisao along, isn't it? I hope you don't mind?“
  18. “N-no, I don't ... mind. I just ... I just don't want him to get bored.“
  19. Lilly smirks a little as if she knew a secret. “I think he has enough interest in the event to keep him entertained in the meanwhile. He seemed interested in the planning for tonight enough.“
  20.  
  21. Hanako blinks. “Planning? What do you mean?”
  22. Lilly waves her had, dismissing the question as silly. “Oh, nothing, nothing at all.”
  23.  
  24. Hanako can't help but feel a little suspicious, but her trust in Lilly is to the point where she has difficulty attributing anything like deception to her. Still, Lilly is hiding something. Maybe it's a surprise for her, but Hanako doesn't want to get her hopes up. Having a party for her birthday was more than enough, she didn't want to push it. In fact, having an early party for the day seemed nicer than waiting for the actual date.
  25.  
  26. When that day comes around, the last thing Hanako feels like doing is celebrating.
  27.  
  28. Lilly sighs and shifts a little on the floor uncomfortably, trying to find a new position to sit in and moving her feet out from under her, gently rubbing at her toes. She looks strained and slightly annoyed. “Are you okay?” Hanako asks.
  29.  
  30. Lilly seems a little embarrassed by the question though Hanako's couldn't imagine why. Lilly nods, trying to alleviate any concern. “Oh, yes, yes, I'm all right. I just spent the entire day working with the class for representative duties. On top of that ... the President has some particularly onerous tasks she insisted I take care of," she says with a little uncharacteristic ire. "With all the running around I've done the last few days, my feet are aching terribly."
  31.  
  32. Instantly Hanako feels a stab of guilt over Lilly going to so much trouble and pushing herself for her sake. Likely some of that 'running around' was due to her party. "S-sorry."
  33.  
  34. “It's nothing to apologize for, Hanako. I told you, it was the President who was the issue. Between her and running into the city, I'm feeling quite stretched thin. I'm relieved to have your party; it will give us all the chance to enjoy ourselves and relax.“
  35.  
  36. Hanako nods. Lilly has gone to so much trouble to help plan her party while still keeping up with her class duties. She put a lot of work into tonight, Hanako only hopes the event will be as enjoyable for her as she seems to think it will be. Still, Hanako can't help but notice Lilly continues to rub her feet with a slightly annoyed or pained expression. “Is there something I can do?”
  37.  
  38. Lilly shakes her head, smiling to alleviate Hanako's worry. “No, I'm quite all right. It's just a little discomfort, that's all.“
  39.  
  40. Hanako hesitates before saying anything, but eventually she works up the courage to ask. “Would you...do you want me to ... do that for you?”
  41. “Do what, Hanako?”
  42. “Rub ... your feet?”
  43.  
  44. Lilly seems surprised by the question, but Hanako is relieved to see she doesn't look offended. It's not that big of a deal, after all. The two of them are close enough, Hanako hopes, that she wouldn't take issue with it. Still, it might be a little presumptuous, enough that Hanako is still a little surprised when Lilly unexpectedly answers.
  45.  
  46. “If you don't mind, that sounds like it would be lovely.“
  47.  
  48. Lilly stretches out under the table between them, pushing her feet towards Hanako. They eventually peek out from under the table, light and pale and very smooth. Each one of her toenails is very carefully maintained and delicately painted. Hanako recalls one time Lilly and Akira dragged her into town and they went to a beauty shop. Hanako felt very out of place, but the experience was sort of nice and it did make Hanako feel a little pretty after it was all done. Lilly had mentioned she has her nails done often as it's easier than trying to manage on her own, so each of her dainty toes is very well cared for and carefully pampered, all the perfect length and size.
  49.  
  50. Hanako isn't quite sure what to do at first, but she sets Lilly feet into her lap and carefully begins to run her fingers up and down the arches in a slow, repeating pattern.
  51.  
  52. Lilly smiles and giggles a little.
  53. “I'm sorry,” Hanako says, quickly stopping.
  54. “That's all right, it feels nice. I'm just very ticklish.“
  55.  
  56. Hanako nods shyly before beginning again, using her thumbs to rub tiny circles beneath each individual toe in a line, careful not to tickle Lilly too much. Even so, Lilly still giggles every so often, her tiny digits squirming in Hanako's hands. “Is it...good?”
  57.  
  58. Lilly nods. “Yes, that's nice. It's especially tight around my calf. Could you get that, please?“
  59.  
  60. Hanako obliges, hesitantly letting her fingers run up and down Lilly's heel and ankle, smoothing it out as best she can. Hanako feels very clumsy doing this, but Lilly is smiling, so she thinks it's all right. She rubs Lilly's ankle between her fingers and is surprised to find how tight it feels. It must have been very uncomfortable for Lilly and Hanako is rather pleased to note when Lilly begins to relax and starts to look more comfortable. “Does that ... feel good?”
  61. “Yes, very much. Please, keep going.”
  62.  
  63. Hanako does, putting a little more effort into the action, encouraged by Lilly's approval. Setting both of Lilly's white feet in her lap, Hanako places them side by side, letting her fingers traces lines up and down Lilly's arches, using her thumbs to press into the tender and soft skin, passing through and tracing the delicate lines in Lilly's sensitive feet. From the looks of it, Lilly is beginning to enjoy it even more than before, a little, dreamy smile on her face and her head laying back on her shoulder, her lip gently held between her teeth.
  64.  
  65. Wow, Hanako thinks. She's ... really enjoying this.
  66. Hanako thinks she might be as well.
  67.  
  68. “Hanako?”
  69. “Y-yes?”
  70. Lilly hesitates. “Could you do me another favor?”
  71. “S-sure.”
  72. Lilly looks a little embarrassed. “I keep a bottle of lotion in my side table. Could you get that out? I usually only use it at night, but it's late enough and if you'd be willing to help...“
  73.  
  74. Hanako nods and retrieves the bottle, finding it, as Lilly directs, in the top drawer. It's expensive looking and smells like it too, the scent of vanilla and jasmine instantly filling the room when Hanako unscrews the top. “How much should I use?”
  75.  
  76. “As much as you want.”
  77.  
  78. Hanako dabs some of the silky smooth liquid onto her fingers, the tiny dot dribbling between her fingertips messily. She has to catch it and cup it in her hands to keep it from dripping on the floor. Rubbing it between her fingers, her hands become very slick and smooth and she can already feel it beginning to soak into her skin, making her fingers feel slightly oily and soft. A few drops on Lilly's foot makes her flinch in surprise, but Lilly doesn't pull back.
  79.  
  80. Hanako carefully holds Lilly's feet, continuing the motions from before, but now with the added sensation of the lotion creating a slick layer of silk between her fingertips and Lilly's feet. The smell fills the room and Hanako instantly recognizes it from the times she's stood close to Lilly, the times they've spent together in her room. She thought it was perfume, but it was the lotion Hanako could smell. She finds it very comforting, the smell reminding her intensely of Lilly.
  81.  
  82. With the lotion, Lilly seems to be having even more trouble keeping still, her toes wriggling in what Hanako thinks might be muted delight. It's even more evident on her face as Lilly leans back onto her elbows to let Hanako have at as much of her feet as she can get to, Lilly's head leaning back and her hair falling down behind her.
  83.  
  84. Hanako rubs her slick fingers between each of Lilly's toes, leaving behind a glossy trail running between each one, again and again lacing each of Lilly's digits with her own. As her hands pass through, Lilly tightens up, her toes tightly clamping down on Hanako's fingers and she hears Lilly let out a tiny, muffled moan with her head leaning back as far as it will go. Hanako knows how sensitive Lilly is to pain, she guesses that it must apply to things that feel ... good, as well.
  85.  
  86. More lotion gets added and Hanako continues to lay hand over hand against Lilly's feet. By now Lilly is breathing heavily, taking deep breaths of the vanilla scented air. Hanako has to admit to herself that between the feeling of Lilly's feet, the lotion's sensation and smell and the sound of Lilly's tiny gasps for air, she's starting to enjoy this as much as Lilly is.
  87.  
  88. With Lilly's feet almost dripping with oil and a final gasp from her as Hanako rubs the palm of her hands down the entire length of her feet, Lilly tightens up one last time before going very suspiciously relaxed and at ease. Hanako's face burns red, but she keep running her fingers in tiny circles, making Lilly mew slightly with each motion.
  89.  
  90. “That feels ... much better.”
  91. Hanako nods. “G-good.”
  92.  
  93. Lilly has a little grin on her face. “Thank you very much, Hanako. That's exactly what I needed after all the stress from today.“ Her face turns slightly pinkish. ”If you're ever interested, I'd be happy to return the favor to you. Just between friends.“
  94.  
  95. Hanako blushes furiously. “O-okay.”
  96.  
  97. A knock at the door makes Hanako jump, but Lilly seems totally at ease, surreptitiously sliding her feet gently out of Hanako's lap.
  98. Hanako's a little sad to see them go.
  99.  
  100. “Are you ready, Hanako?”
  101. She nods nervously, hoping Hisao won't be able to see her red cheeks and flushed expression. She straightens her nightgown.
  102. Somehow it got slightly askew.
  103. “I'm ... okay.”
  104.  
  105. Lilly turns to face where her door is located. “Might that be Hisao?”
