Rika couldn't believe her eyes. She would have thrown herself into the line of fire and took the butt squeeze for her pal Himawari had she had the chance to react in time, but it was too late. All she could do was stare in shock at Himawari's backside and the fingers that squeezed them. She took notice of the cute kitten image on the panties but wasn't exactly focused on the cartoon. Her face blushed a bright shade of red as she stared. She had to force herself to look away, up towards Nadeshiko's face. 

"H-How could you?!" She shouted along with Himawari, not knowing what else to say. What she really felt was "How could you touch Nadeshiko's butt before me!", but it was better to leave out that last part. She was turned on but also felt bad for Himawari at the same time, experiencing conflicting emotions. She knew lecturing Nadeshiko would be fruitless, so she decided to just comfort Himawari instead, but not without ogling her some more while she was lying on the ground on her belly. "Such a cute little butt..." She thought to herself, then shook her head vigorously. "What am I thinking?!" She kneeled down besides her friend, trying to shield her with her own body so that others might not see Himawari. She was fine with being looked at, which she could assume happened quite often with he being an idol and all. To help draw the attention towards herself, in a surprising move she "accidentally" had her own bloomers come loose as she kneeled down beside Himawari.

"Oh no!" She shouted, flailing around to try to distract everyone, then winked at Himawari to use this opportunity to escape. Hopefully this plan would be a success.
