As far as Akira was concerned, that moment was there to stay.<br/><br/>To be completely truthful, there was a bit of selfishness involved in that decision. After all there was something to be said about finding oneself in the middle of two beautiful catgirls kissing each other and there was a part of Akira that was very keen in maintaining that status.<br/><br/>But there was something more than that. Definitely. Being one that had to go away from his home, due to the tension between him and his father, Akira knew the importance of happy memories. He had a precious few himself about his own youth, they were his own and nobody could steal them from him… and there had been hard and nasty times into which those memories have helped him keep his sanity. Akira knew that he, Maleena and Skuld were probably going to face difficult times, getting used to each other and their new life together…  settling in a new place and trying to make it their home was never an easy thing, and also Akira was deep down worried about possible interferences from his family. His grandfather Kenzo, in particular, had always been very strict in his interpretation of “owning” someone.. and Akira knew all too well that a reckoning with the old man would be in order, sooner or later. And that was why he had prepared so carefully the welcome for the two catgirls… he wanted their first memories about their new home to be warm and happy. He wanted them to be, if possible, something to treasure and take strength from. Something inside him was thinking that they would need that strength sooner or later.<br/><br/>As it was, it seemed that Akira could not hope for anything better. That moment was… special and he was feeling his heart grow soft and fuzzy all of a sudden. He knew definitely better than trying to spoil such moments in any way… they were too rare and too precious in his life.<br/><br/>He slowly moved in a better position, firmly planting himself on both legs in order to avoid losing his equilibrium if one of the catgirls shifted her weight. He made himself comfortable and  moved his arms so they wrapped a bit more around Maleena and Skuld’s slender bodies… and held them a bit tighter so to give them more surface of contact with each other and him, melding the three of them into a gentle embrace… enjoying that sweet sense of intimacy that cats can give when they are in the mood.<br/><br/>He let loose a low, contente sigh as he continued his fingerwork on their ears.<br/><br/>He was feeling so calm and contented that his body had seemingly forgotten to get aroused from the contact of the two girls… although the premises were all there and the girls were probably aware of them from the slight note of excitement in his smell. He was still very much in control of himself, though, and actually the best part of his brain was settling in the soft pleasure of his nearness to the girl.<br/><br/>He kept stroking their ears, smiling silently to himself, waiting for what would happen next.<br/>
