Work Text:
“Are you almost done? You don’t have to spend forever doing this, you know.” Maki said as she looked in the mirror where she could see herself sitting in her chair as well as her roommate, Kaede standing behind her.
Kaede gripped the hairbrush handle with one hand as she gingerly stroked Maki’s dark brunette tendrils with the bristles.
“Be patient, stuff like this takes time! I want your hair to look perfect.” Kaede contended.
“I’m just going to Kaito’s house, it’s not like I’m going to a five star restaurant or something.” Maki shot back.
“I’m just very excited for you two. I’ve been wanting you guys to get together for so long!” Kaede expressed.
“Well, you’re lucky I have my coffee here or else I probably wouldn’t be tolerating this as much.” Maki said, proceeding to lift her tall coffee cup up to her lips, taking a sip of the hot beverage. “Also, if I had to admit… this whole relationship thing is all new to me so I’m a bit nervous.”
“That’s totally normal. Just remember you’re with him for a reason.”
“Thanks.”
“And… done! Do you like it?”
“It looks nice.” Maki complimented as she took the last sip of her coffee. “Not sure why you had to spend that long on my hair when I’m just going to his house, but it’s cute.”
“I’m glad you like it!” Kaede expressed. “So, when did you tell Kaito you’ll be over?”
“At around 3:00.” Maki nonchalantly answered as she pulled out her cell phone and checked the time. “It’s 1:30 now.”
“And how long did you say it took to get to his house from here?” Kaede asked.
“About an hour.” Maki responded.
“Oh dear, I started your hair too early, didn’t I?”
“It’s not a big deal. It’s not like I’m gonna do anything to mess it up.”
“I suppose you’re right. So, do you just wanna hang out here for the next half an hour before I drive you over there?”
“It’s fine with me.”
“Okay!”
After confirming when they were going to step out the door, Maki sat on the edge of her bed as she checked her phone some more. She didn’t even notice she was involuntarily fidgeting until several minutes later as her heart rate started to increase inside her chest.
She wasn’t immune to nervousness. After all, this was her first time going to Kaito’s house and new situations were a little unnerving to her. She was ready to take the new step, but she couldn’t help but have a slight sense of uneasiness.
Kaito had finally asked Maki to be be his girlfriend during the month before college started. Maki was new to the whole relationship thing, but she undoubtedly had feelings for Kaito so she said yes. After all, the tension between them was so thick you could cut it with a knife. This was especially noticed by Kaede, who had gone to high school with the both of them.
Maki had her doubts since her and Kaito were going to be going to different colleges, but Kaito assured her that wasn’t going to stop them from having a successful relationship. And his reassurance was correct so far. The feelings the two had for each other made the relationship great so far.
Once they got together, they made to be sure to spend as much of the remaining summer together. However, the quality time never consisted of one going over to the other’s house until now.
During the weekends, both of their respective colleges allowed students to leave campus. Most of the weekends, Maki and Kaito had done that to see each other. This particular day, they both just wanted something relaxing so they agreed upon hanging out at Kaito’s house.
Maki’s heart didn’t find it relaxing, it seemed… she knew that she had no doubts about being with Kaito, be she was still getting used to the feeling of being in a relationship. She just had to assure herself everything she would be fine. If she could spend time with Kaito anywhere else, she could do it at his house.

About half an hour later, Maki continued to fidget around, but this time it was for a different reason. The coffee she had drank earlier to wake herself up and help her be more patient had started to catch up to her. It didn’t help that her bladder became weaker when she got nervous, a problem she was ashamed she had.
Fortunately, the solution was easy. She had no problem excusing herself to the bathroom around Kaede. She just had to tell her she needed a quick pee break before they left.
The roommates headed downstairs to the front doors of which they entered the campus from. Maki kept her eye out for the girls bathroom in the hallway which she has the location of memorized. After all, she had to have had its exact spot memorized since there were no bathrooms in the dorm rooms.
She was about to excuse herself, but the words halted from escaping her throat once she saw several other girls by the door in a single file line.
Maki quietly groaned to herself in frustration. Why was there a line this long now out of all times? Especially when plenty of people were off campus… maybe they were like her and needed a pee break before leaving for somewhere.
Maki recalled that she would be in the car for an hour. If she were going anywhere else, she would’ve got in line just so she could be guaranteed to have an empty bladder before getting in the car. But this was Kaito’s house she was going to, she’d feel bad keeping him waiting longer than he was supposed to be.
Besides, it wasn’t urgent yet. She definitely would’ve preferred to have emptied her bladder before leaving since the nagging in it was annoying to her, but she didn’t have to go right that second.
“Coming, Maki?” Kaede asked.
Maki hadn’t even realized she had stopped in her tracks and zoned out a bit until the voice coming for her roommate snapped her out of her thoughts.
“Yeah.” Maki nonchalantly answered as she continued walking.
Shortly they made it to the parking lot and located Kaede’s car. As Maki sat down in the passenger seat, she felt another twinge in her bladder from the movement, her need starting to feel a bit worse.
Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to leave in this state after all. It wasn’t an emergency, but she still felt discomfort in her lower abdomen. Also, she was going to be on the road for an hour so she was worried there was a chance that it could become urgent during the ride, making her not being able to make it the rest of the ride.
But the car was starting and taking off at that very moment. There was no turning back, she had her chance and she threw it away.
For the first half hour of the ride, the brunette was doing fine. She mostly just went on her phone to distract herself and occasionally exchanged words with Kaede about various brief topics. But then, a wave of desperation hit her and she realized that her need to pee had almost doubled in intensity. She was left with an uncomfortable and tense expression on her face as she started to fidget and wriggle her legs around more evidently then before.
Shortly after, a message appeared on the top of her phone screen with Kaito’s name on the top of it. She quickly clicked on it, knowing that talking to Kaito would help distract her at least somewhat. It probably would’ve been a good idea to let Kaito know how far away she was anyway.
Kaito: Heya babe :) U on ur way?
Maki’s thumbs hovered over the phone keyboard and began to type a response.
Maki: Yeah, be there in about half an hour
Maki wasn’t even aware of how much time was left of the ride until she checked, sending a slight shiver up her spine. Could she really wait that long? Oh, what was she thinking, of course she could. She had no other option.
Kaito: I better start getting ready for you then haha
Maki rolled her eyes after the response she got, but then let out a chuckle. Kaito still hadn’t started getting ready yet? Maki couldn’t decide if she thought that was annoying or funny. Kaito was such a procrastinator compared to her.
Maki’s thumbs hovered over the keyboard once again and her thumbs did a little dance as she thought of a response. Her thumbs were fidgeting just like her legs.
Maki: You should, lazybones.
She intended the text she sent to be in a more playful connotation than texts she sent to anybody else. She didn’t usually joke with others, but finding someone she could do that with felt refreshing.
Refreshing… oh god, now was not the time to be thinking about things that were refreshing.
Kaito: I’ll take note of that lol
Kaito: I’m excited to see you <3
Maki: There’s a good chance I’m excited to see you as well ;)
Maki was definitely looking forward to seeing her boyfriend, but she was also looking forward to relieving the growing pressure on her bladder.
When did it get this bad…? Maki thought as she to began to wriggle her legs even more.
“Hey, are you doing okay?” Kaede asked.
Maki’s body went still again as a reflex upon Kaede’s voice radiating next to her. Her bladder felt even worse now that she wasn’t fidgeting around anymore.
“I’m fine.” Maki responded once she stabled herself the best that she could.
“You seem a bit tense, are you nervous?” Kaede inquired.
How can she tell I’m tense? Her eyes are on the damn road. Maki thought.
Kaede had always been good at reading people’s emotions, but Maki didn’t know she was that good at it. Even if she didn’t actually know why Maki seemed so on edge.
“I know you’re nervous to go to Kaito’s house. It’s going to be fine, though!” Kaede encouraged.
Kaede wasn’t completely wrong. Maki did feel a little bit nervous before, but that was the least of her worries at the moment. The physical discomfort of the full feeling in her lower abdomen outweighed the mental discomfort of anxiousness.
“Drinking water might make you feel calmer.” Kaede suggested, lightly tapping the screwed cap of a full plastic water bottle resting in the cup holder next to her with her free hand. Maki hadn’t even noticed it was there, even if Kaede did have a tendency to bring water with her while going somewhere.
It took everything in Maki not to audibly gasp and violently protest at Kaede upon hearing those words escape her lips. There Kaede was, suggesting solutions to everybody’s problems, except this time she was unknowingly making things worse.
Do you wanna die? Having water right now will make me anything but calmer. Maki thought, but decided to say something less dramatic, solely because she didn’t feel like alluding to the fact that a flood was brewing inside her.
“No. You can’t tell me what to do.” Maki retorted.
“I’m just trying to help you. You don’t drink enough water, you know.” Kaede advised.
“I don’t need to be nagged about health habits right now.” Maki scoffed. She especially didn’t need to be nagged about this one when she had the opposite problem of it.
Kaede knew Maki had a tendency to get irritable and snap whenever something was bothering her, so she didn’t know take it too personally. Though unbeknownst to Kaede, Maki was snapping for a completely different reason than she had thought.
“I’m not nagging.” Kaede reasoned calmly. “Just keep my suggestion in mind.”
Maybe I’ll drink water after you pull over so I can pee. Maki thought. As much as she might’ve wanted to voice that out loud, she couldn’t. She was completely fine with excusing herself to a bathroom that was in sight, but she saw asking to pull the car over for a pee break as a sign of weakness. She wasn’t going to allow herself to succumb to that.
Though because the brunette wanted Kaede to let the whole water thing go, she impulsively found her hand touching the bottle next to her and lifting it up. It was only a little bit of water and there was only a little under half an hour, so it couldn’t be that bad, right?
Maki hesitantly unscrewed the cap and held the bottle up to her lips. She let the room temperature water slide down her throat, starting to regret it only seconds in.
“Oh, and by the way… make sure to use protection.” Kaede blurted out.
Maki almost spit out her water right then and there upon hearing those words. It probably would’ve been a good idea to do that to avoid filling up her bladder even more. Though she ended up swallowing it and she instantly knew it was a bad idea.
“Kaede! We’re not going to do it.” Maki berated. “Talk about dropping that on me out of nowhere…”
Then, Maki felt it. Another wave of desperation hit her. Her bladder felt fuller than a few minutes ago. She couldn’t tell if it was just because she was thinking about it, or if the water really did skip her stomach and went straight down to her full bladder. She shifted her posture once again, hoping to steady herself.
“We’re not going to do anything like that for a while. I want to wait for the right moment, and it’s not now.” Maki explained, trying to act like nothing was going on with her and just casually add on to what she was saying, even if the subject… wasn’t so casual.
“That’s good!” Kaede said. “Just… remember, when you do-“
“I get it. I’ll remember, thank you.” Maki interrupted.
Maki pressed her thighs against one against one another to try and ease the pressure. She was at the point where she was starting to feel like she wanted to grab herself, but she couldn’t, so she had to settle for what she was doing now.
Ten more minutes passed and it felt as though Maki’s bladder panged even worse than before. The thought of asking Kaede to pull over even crossed her mind, but she immediately mentally berated herself for even considering it. There was only less than twenty minutes left of the ride and she couldn’t do anything she personally considered a weakness no matter how bad she needed to go. She had to hold it.
The rest of the ride felt excruciatingly long. There wasn’t that much time left, but Maki’s full bladder made the time that went by feel twice as long.
But before she knew it, she felt the car come to a halt. The brunette looked up from her phone and saw that she had finally reached Kaito’s house.
Finally. Maki thought, unbuckling her seatbelt and scrambling out the car door after opening it.
“Bye Maki, have fun!” Kaede beamed, a little wave goodbye following.
“Bye Kaede, thanks for the ride.” Maki said before she closed the car door.
Maki made her way over to the front door, her bladder jostling with each each step up the porch stairs. She lifted her hand up to the doorbell, pressing it with her index finger.
She wanted to move that hand down to her crotch to hold herself while she waited the door to be answered, but she couldn’t risk being caught doing such an embarrassing action. After all, she could go soon.
Though she did squirm in place while she waited, writhing her legs up and down, but not too vigorously. She waited there for about a full minute, but the door wasn’t being answered. So the brunette took her phone out to text Kaito that she was there.
Maki: Hey, I’m here. I rang the doorbell but no one answered
Kaito: Oh come on in! I’m still in the bathroom getting ready and I must’ve been so caught up in it that I didn’t hear the doorbell. And no one else is here, so that’s why no one answered
Maki’s heart almost dropped right then and there. Kaito was still in the bathroom getting ready for her? He had either procrastinated even more on doing so than he already was or was spending even more time to look good for Maki, which wasn’t even necessary considering they were already in a relationship and they were in such a casual setting. Though how he presented himself didn’t matter, what mattered was that Maki really needed the bathroom. She needed it pretty soon, but she had to wait even longer.
The brunette turned the doorknob sideways, allowing the front door to open and reveal her boyfriend’s house to her for the first time. After closing the door behind her, she spotted a closed door with light shining through the open space at the bottom. She presumed that was the bathroom, so she walked over to it.
“Hi, Kaito.” She greeted from the other side of the door.
“Hi Maki Roll! Welcome!” Kaito exclaimed.
“Thanks, I’m glad to be here.” Maki chuckled.
The two briefly exchanged some more words before Maki heard something that indicated that Kaito was still getting ready and taking his sweet ass time. The sound of heat emitting from a blowdryer gave away that Maki’s wait would be even longer.
He’s drying his hair right now? He should’ve done all this before I came here, I’m in a bit of a predicament here. Maki thought as she groaned to herself.
Maki shoved one of her hands in between her crotch and gave it a squeeze and she leaned against the wall with her back arched. Several more minutes passed and Kaito was still there. Maki didn’t get in line for the bathroom before leaving to avoid keeping Kaito waiting, but there he was, keeping her waiting.
Maki didn’t even know how much longer she had to wait, it felt like she had already waited long enough. That feeling was confirmed true when she felt a jet of warmth escape her, causing her to dig her hand into her crotch even tighter.
It would’ve helped if she could at least know how much longer she would have to wait. She was about to ask Kaito how much longer he would be, but the words failed to form as if her throat locked up. The words she wanted to utter just wouldn’t escape her throat as if she were in one of those dreams where it was nearly impossible to talk.
If this were anybody else, Maki would have no problem walking to the door, loudly knocking on it, and telling the person in the bathroom to hurry the hell up in there. But this wasn’t just anybody, it was Kaito.
All she could do was pray that Kaito wouldn’t be much longer. He couldn’t spend that much longer in there, could he?
Maki removed her back from the wall and started to take a look around Kaito’s house in hopes of distracting herself. When she got to the living room, she noticed a bunch of space related photos framed to the wall. They were cool to look at, but the attempt to distract herself from her burning need was proven futile. She inwardly scolded herself for even thinking taking a tour around the house would distract her from the excessive amount of urine she was harboring inside her. Nothing could distract her at the point she was currently at, she could only focus on how she was struggling on keeping it all in.
Maki started to pace around Kaito’s house nonstop, not paying attention to anything in particular, just aimlessly going around in circles so she could keep the flood at bay. As she kept rapidly going back and forth, the only thing on her mind was the words “Gotta pee, gotta pee, gotta pee” as if a looper pedal was installed in her brain. She stopped momentarily as she felt another leak spring free. She shoved her hands in between her crotch again as she started to bounce up and down and vigorously wiggle her hips, a whine emerging from her throat.
Her bladder tightly throbbed at her and it hurt. She had to go now.
Maki’s need to pee took over her entire body, including her brain as she lost her ability to think rationally. She immediately exited the house through the front door and was so disoriented that she didn’t even close it, and she hardly even noticed.
She spotted bushes in Kaito’s backyard, and immediately scrambled behind them. She didn’t care if this wasn’t the right option, she had lost the capability for rational thinking and just had to pee as soon as she could without wetting herself, something she felt like she was seconds away from doing.
As soon as she hid behind the bushes, she pulled down her undergarments from underneath her skirt and got them out of the way. Despite feeling like the dam was going to break any second, nothing came out immediately.
When she was in a place anywhere other than her home, she was able to pee but she had to take a moment to relax her muscles first. They didn’t just relax in the blink of an eye. It was times like these where she wished that would happen, though.
Maki sharply and unevenly breathed in, and it was evident that it was because she was in pain. As she tried to relax her muscles, a part of her rational mind came back, though not enough to where she could actually listen to it. Was asking Kaito to leave the bathroom really worse than this? She couldn’t believe she allowed herself to end up here, literally squatting outside Kaito’s house and about to pee. This contradicted so many of her thoughts from earlier, but she didn’t care enough to leave. She was already there, and the river was about to come out of her any second now.
Maki tried her best to calm herself down, which was hard to do with the possibility she would be caught and her perspective that she really was overtaken by her desperate need so much that she was going through with a reckless action.
Though she remembered what she had been taught in the past to relax her bladder whenever she got worked up about peeing in public, and then she felt it coming, the floodgates opening.
As the stream pattered into the grass underneath the bush, Maki’s nerves went away as she just thought about how good it felt to just let go. Her body was overtaken with bliss as the gushing just got stronger and stronger. She let out a sigh as she was finally able to empty herself.
But that feeling didn’t last as long as she’d hoped…
“Oh, there you are! I was looking for you, and the door was open so I figured you were out here.” A voice uttered behind her, causing Maki to snap out of her euphoria and back into the real world, heavily shuddering from being startled by the voice.
Fuck fuck fuck. This wasn’t supposed to happen. Fucking hell! Maki thought as she froze up and clenched her muscles to cut off the flow of her unfinished stream.
Cutting the flow off of that stream was one of the most difficult things she’d ever had to do. It felt too good and she was so hesitant to bring it to an end early. As she stood up from her spot and walked over to Kaito while still wearing her skirt, her bladder ached to continue emptying itself. Her lower abdomen ached, then felt relief when she let go, then ached all over again when she stopped.
“Hi, Kaito. I just got bored and started admiring your bushes outside.” Maki said, her voice shaking.
Was that convincing? Shit, it probably wasn’t. Maki thought.
Maki’s bladder started pulsing at her even more tightly. It couldn’t keep the flood at bay any longer, it absolutely needed to finish what it started. Before Kaito could get another word out, Maki’s bladder started to lose control, and the floodgates opened for a second time. But this time, it was right in front of Kaito.
Urine started to visibly trickle down Maki’s legs and into the grass beneath her. The gushing became stronger as it went on. Kaito was clearly caught by surprise, unsure of what to do about the situation. As the stream flowed, Maki buried her face into her hands, being too embarrassed to face Kaito.
Maki said she wanted to wait for the right time to do certain things with Kaito, but this… in a way, this felt more intimate than those things.
He knows the real reason I was out here… it’s so goddamn obvious now, isn’t it? Who pisses themselves in front of their boyfriend the first time going to their house? Or even at all? Me, apparently… Maki monologued inside her mind in shame.
She couldn’t even complete the small action of closing the goddamn door, if it weren’t for that, maybe he wouldn’t have found her. Or if she could just immediately pee when she intended too instead of having to go through a process of getting her muscles relaxed, then maybe she could’ve finished up in time. She didn’t even care about her relief anymore, all she could focus on was what she considered her ultimate embarrassment.
I’m so fucking pathetic, aren’t I… this is even fucking worse than whatever else I imagined and didn’t want to happen… Maki thought.
The stream eventually trickled down into nothing until there was only one drop to expel from Maki’s overworked bladder, rendering it empty.
Maki immediately uncovered her eyes and turned around, making a beeline to the bush where she was before. She crouched down, and the way she did it made it obvious that she was being plagued by humiliation.
Her face reddened even more at the realization that she had left her underwear on the ground near the bush. If Kaito had seen… those, then it would make what Maki did even more evident. Not that it wasn’t pretty clear already…
She hastily started to put them back on, hoping that Kaito didn’t notice. Knowing him, he was probably going to walk over to her and say something…
If there was an award for the most pathetic girl of the year, I’d win it… I should’ve known I was going to get caught… Maki thought with her face sweating and flushing with redness as she successfully put her underwear back onto her.
“Hey, Maki Roll!” Kaito called out, causing Maki to snap out of her thoughts.
“I know you don’t want to be seen with me anymore, so leave me alone…” Maki seethed.
“That’s not true! I’m not mad, Maki.” Kaito assured.
“You’re… not?” Maki questioned as she stood up and faced the boy in front of her.
“We all get into desperate situations like this. I know you must’ve really had to go in order to do this.”
“Yeah…”
“Though if you had to go that bad, you do realize you could’ve just asked me to leave the bathroom, right?”
There it was. That was the question Maki had expected to be asked but still wasn’t prepared to answer. It was a reminder that she tried to avoid an embarrassing situation with a situation more than twice as embarrassing.
“I was embarrassed to do that… I couldn’t admit I needed you to leave the bathroom.” Maki admitted, her red irises darting away from the boy in front of her.
“You were scared to tell me to leave? But you have no problem telling others stuff like this.” Kaito questioned.
“Well, they’re not you!” Maki exclaimed a bit more dramatically than she would’ve liked as her eyes averted back to Kaito.
“They’re not me…?”
“I don’t know what you’ve done to me but with you, I want to do everything perfectly. I don’t feel that with anybody else. I couldn’t come to your house for the first time and make the first thing I did telling you to leave your own bathroom. I tried to, but my throat practically locked up and I just felt self conscious about telling you I had to go. I guess this is all new to me and I’m still getting comfortable being in a relationship but I just like you so much and I don’t want waste the opportunity I have to be with you.”
“Wow… I didn’t know you had all of this in mind. Who knew that Maki Roll had such a soft spot for me?”
“I do, okay? Don’t go around telling people though. Anyway, I really did try to avoid embarrassment by doing something even more embarrassing and thinking I’d get away with it… I’m sorry about… er, watering your grass.”
“You wouldn’t have ruined anything by asking me to leave, and you didn’t ruin anything by doing what you did instead. In fact, I think I’m even more comfortable with you after witnessing that…”
“Wow, that’s… the most positive reaction to this sort of thing that I’ve heard.”
“Did you expect me to yell at you for this? Sure, it might not have been proper per se and asking me to leave the bathroom may have have been the ideal choice, but of course I wouldn’t have gotten mad at you for it. Stuff like this happens to everyone. I shouldn’t have been spending so much time in the bathroom anyway so it is partly my fault. And maybe it’s good you let go when you did, I don’t want you to get sick.”
Maki wouldn’t actually show it, but this was the second time today she could almost cry from relief - albeit a different kind of relief this time. Her face was red as a tomato as she covered it with her right hand, her thin eyebrows arching. She had such bad memories with accidents, and she was so used to being ridiculed or yelled at for having them whenever she did. She was so accustomed to people having angry reactions to wettings, so she was led to believe that was just everybody’s reaction to them. So to hear Kaito say all of that in response to this was cathartic to her.
“Wow, that’s…” Maki started to say, but stumbled in her words to try and find the right thing to say. “Just, thank you. Anything else to say?”
“Actually, yeah. I really, really like you too.” Kaito said with a smile as he gently grabbed one of Maki’s hands, interlacing their fingers together. “It’s kind of why we’re in a relationship.”
“Right. Obviously, heh…” Maki chuckled.
As their hands met, Maki looked up at Kaito and gazed into his eyes with a little smile. This whole situation left her feeling flustered to say the very least, but the fact that Kaito wasn’t mad or disgusted for this was new for her in an undoubtedly positive way.
As Kaito’s violet eyes stared into Maki’s red ones, he started to lean his head a bit closer to Maki’s, prompting her to do the same until their lips connected.
As their lips met, Maki used her free arm to put it around Kaito’s shoulder. The kiss was slow and sweet, and it felt like home to Maki. She knew that Kaito was the one for her, she could feel it all in the kiss as her heart pounded from passion.
After a few seconds, their lips seperated, leaving Maki’s face a hue of red and with a smile that was only reserved for certain people like Kaito.
“I might love all the millions of stars there are, but you’ll always be my favorite star.” Kaito quipped affectionately.
“You’re so cheesy, you know that?” Maki said.
“I’ve been told that before.” Kaito chuckled. “Oh, and by the way, you look so cute today. Not that you don’t look cute everyday.”
“You don’t look so bad yourself.” Maki chuckled. “Looks like hogging the bathroom was worth it.”
Maki had surprised herself from being able to joke about this so quickly. She didn’t expect this.
“Well I’m glad you at least think that.” Kaito chortled. “Come on, let’s go inside.”
Their fingers stayed interlaced in a warm, secure handhold as they went inside. The rest of the day went very well and they never brought up this incident again.
