Thanks to karis for beta reading this! love lots!

Sort of related oneshots but each chap can stand alone on its own.. yeah bit confusing... but you'll understand what i mean by that later on maybe on the next chapter...

Genre is sort of like slice of life/romance/comedy...applied to all i think, sort of a light hearted fic.

Chemistry

-flashback-

"I don't like it!"

"Don't like what?"

"A person who pops out of nowhere who knows you more than I do!"

"Are you serious?"

"Yes!" Michiru burst out angrily. "You told me you never had a sister!"

"That was-… I…" Haruka wanted to reason out but couldn't find any words to say. She turned her head away from the piercing blue eyes of her lover and kept her silence.

"We've been dating for eight months and I don't know a single thing about you… whether you had a dog when you were a kid, where you grew up or what kind of family you have. Just as simple as that, I want to know."

Haruka kept her silence while Michiru sighed disappointedly.

"Whenever my friends talk about what their lover's parent's are like, I don't have anything to say because I haven't heard any stories from you."

"What do you have to know about my past? Isn't me right now enough for you?"

"Haruka, I just want to know more about you… I want to be a part of your world that I never got to experience."

-end of flashback-

"I told her if she isn't willing to tell me anything about her then it is better if we don't see each other anymore."

"And that's why you're sleeping in my place?"

"Yes! I mean it's frustrating enough to know that someone, as simple as her neighbor, knows a lot more about Haruka than me, her girlfriend for eight months!" Michiru voiced out her concerns loudly, exasperation lacing her words, all the while she gripped her notes out of mere frustration. She breathed deeply to loosen up while her friend tried to help to keep her temper down. "I know it's really immature."

"I was going to say… overly jealous girlfriend, but immature would do."

"Really cute, Mai" Michiru faked a smile while cocking her eyebrow towards her friend's direction who in turn simply shrugged then chuckled at Michiru's expression.

The blue eyed beauty sighed and continued. "It's just that, I want to know more about her past, what she was like, her family and everything. I just want Haruka to open up to me. Isn't that really hard to ask?"

"Wait is that a question?" Her red haired friend gasped melodramatically. "Oh god, how HARD could it be for a really aloof and withdrawn person like Haruka? It sure ain't near easy!" enlightened Mai and kept teasing her aquamarine hair friend by echoing the word "easy... easy... easy..."

"That really boosts my morale."

"Don't worry Michiru, you have me."

Michiru grunted before speaking "I'm upset enough as it is, Mai."

"Awww, you're too sweet, Michi-chan." Mai faked a very flattered expression as she nudged Michiru from the side which earned the red head a slight and very annoyed grunt from the blue eyed beauty.

"So tell me, has she done anything? A call or anything alike?"

"I'm not packing my things in your apartment yet, am I?" Michiru replied

"Ooohh… that's bad… I mean it's been three days now and still no call from her… I don't know, Michiru…"

"You're not really helping, if you would like to know."

"Hey, I'm just saying, if you gave her that kind of ultimatum, I mean if she really does like you, a day would be long enough… but three days…" teased Mai once again.

Well to be exact, Mai really likes to tease her friends who are in a relationship, especially during rough situations. She wasn't really that bitter about being single but seeing them being worked up like this, well, it really helps her to pump her energy out.

"Don't be like that. It makes me regret what I did!!" Michiru growled out loud. Her face then softened and Mai couldn't help but to feel down as well. "Makes me think that maybe it was much better if we stayed that way…"

Mai asked "Are you worried?"

"Yes… You know, what if she never shows up? I mean it's like you said, it's been three days and I still haven't heard a call from her or even seen her in school. It's not like-…"

As much as Mai likes teasing, whenever she saw that look, that utterly and completely 'affectionate, sort of missing' look; these warm and fuzzy feelings just suddenly gushed out of Mai and she can't help but drop her teasing habit and just help her in any way to boost her up. And Michiru just released that look.

Mai smiled.

"Sorry for worrying you. Haruka will sooner or later come to realize… I mean she's really dumb if she doesn't realize how lucky she is to have you. Dumber than dumb… combine me during chemistry class times Usagi-chan, that dumb."

Michiru giggled then smiled at Mai appreciatively. "Thank you."

"Alright, enough of this and let's go to class. I really am in need of sleep."

"I told you to pay more attention during class."

"Hey, it's chemistry, awake or not it's still the same. Nothing could be processed by my mind either way."

-Inside classroom-

(Chemistry Class)

And as Mai said before, chemistry class never took her interest so she let her drowsiness take over as she rested her head comfortably on her desk.

Michiru though, unlike Mai, had her complete attention on the discussion with every important word said taken down on her note. Albeit Michiru was a very attentive student, today was a bit different than unusual.

Sure she has her attention focused on her professor and takes notes down but there are moments when she would just simply sigh then doze off to another world, even if it is just a mere couple of minutes still it was unusual.

It had really been bothering Michiru since she left her shared apartment with Haruka three days ago regarding what she did; something she likes to categorize as something out of impulse and very immature like.

But what bothers her most is that what if her relationship with Haruka had already ended because of that. She never really meant the breaking up part 'if Haruka wouldn't tell her about her past', she never really wanted to break up with the blonde, all she wanted was to know more about her lover even if little by little as long as she would be able to.

It was as simple as that, but she never expected Haruka to be this stubborn not to tell her.

'What if she doesn't love me enough to tell me… stupid Michiru…' whispered Michiru herself as she shook her head. She missed the blonde, that stupid, sweet, gentle blonde a lot and now it was taking its toll on Michiru. And by now, Michiru hated herself, most definitely, the most. After all it's her fault why she and Haruka are like this; why they haven't seen or talked to each other.

She sighed once again and went back to taking down notes.

After a couple of minutes, a really unrelated topic was voiced out from her Professor's mouth. "Who are you? What are you doing here?!"

Michiru looked up and saw Haruka standing in front looking agitatedly for her out of this pool of students inside the classroom. Her heart suddenly leaped a thousand beat at the sight of her blonde lover.

"You're not in my class!" The aging professor said out loud to which the blonde completely ignored.

By this time Mai woke up from her sleep from the sudden noise arising in the classroom. She grudgingly looked up and beamed instantly as soon as her eyes fell on Haruka.

"What is she doing in here?" Michiru whispered to herself but unluckily Mai was awake to hear it.

"Burger and ice cream." Was the sarcastic reply from the red head to which Michiru had to cock her eyebrow up in Mai's direction. "Hello Michiru, why else would she be here?!"

It's true, Michiru knows why Haruka's in her classroom at this very moment but asking that question was an assurance that what she was seeing is true and not some illusion created by her. She tried to hide the smile from her face but she was definitely happy that all of this is true.

"I don't know what business you have in here, but I want you immediately out of this classroom or I will have you reported for this!" The professor's threats didn't work on Haruka, which notably disappointed the sensei.

The blonde just kept looking around the classroom and finally she found her.

Haruka smiled as her teal eyes looked straightly into blue ones.

Mai chuckled. "I never thought in a thousand years that chemistry would this be exciting!" an overwhelming excitement accompanied her voice.

(It might be you by Stephen Bishop)

"Michiru…" uttered Haruka softly and sweetly as she smiled ever so gently to her.

The blue eyed beauty kept her silence as her eyes carefully watched Haruka from above. Even though she wasn't saying anything, the look on her face says everything. Haruka's face softened and she began.

"I had two dogs when I was eight. One shih-tzu and one chow chow. I have a stepsister named Haruko, who I barely ever see. My stepfather's name is Ishio who died in a car accident and I have a loving mother named Takahashi who raised me by herself. My real father left us when I was little. There's nothing much left in my family but it's all I needed. I live in this very little town of Narai. It's quiet and boring but I like it. I never liked fermented soybeans ever since I was a child…"

Haruka continued on and on not paying much any attention to the professor who kept scolding her. She only had her eyes straight on Michiru.

Michiru just sat back on her chair as her heart thumped with every word Haruka released. She could never believe what her ears were hearing, it seemed so surreal and sudden but there's no doubt that Michiru was deeply touched a

"My dream was to be a racer when I grow up which I yet to achieve but... well... ahh… where was I… ahh… I got cheated, betrayed and got played. I never liked crying because it shows one's weakness. I'm not good with talking ever since I was little. And I'm not really open about myself either but-…"

By this time, everyone in class seemed to be in full silence. They weren't really getting why this blonde who appeared out of nowhere would tell things about her past so randomly but the controversy combined with the feeling of excitement was enough for them to continue listening.

"But I think I'm deeply in love with you."

Funnily enough everyone gasped, some whistled, others cheered while the professor only got further infuriated. But whatever the others were doing, Michiru and Haruka only paid their attention to one another.

"You think?" Michiru asked, again out of impulse.

"I know." Haruka replied as sincerely and as genuinely she could ever be. "And I also know that don't want to lose you. And… Ano… ahh… I worked in a local shop when I was eleven to help my mother. I got my high school diploma when I was sixteen. I drowned when I was 7 which caused me to have a phobia of water. I-…" overly focused on the things to say, Haruka didn't even take note of Michiru walking towards her until she felt soft palms cupping her cheeks

"That was brave." Michiru smiled tenderly.

Haruka smiled back."There's more."

Michiru giggled then gently pulled Haruka out of the room, who only followed her willingly. The two left the classroom leaving an irate professor and a really bored and disappointed Mai.

"Now I know why I'm single…" Mai sighed as went back to rest her head on her desk. "I hate chemistry."

Thanks for reading... I got break out from studying and instead of resting, I decided to write a story..lol

Yeah, cliche... which I find in reality both mushy and cliche but cute... lol..

-Later that night-

Michiru pushed her lover down the bed and seductively rides on top of her. She kissed the blonde fully on the lips then made her way down her collarbone to her chest. Haruka moaned out of pleasure as her body started heating up. Michiru quickly undid Haruka's shirt button, exposing the blonde's silky white skin. The blue eyed beauty once again kissed Haruka's exposed skin, making red traces down to her bosom. The blonde then blushed profusely as hot lips got near her breast. She quickly pushed Michiru out of her and hurriedly stood up from the bed

THUD

Michiru fell on the floor in an instant. The sea nymph grunted in pain as she slowly stood up from the carpeted floor. She rubbed her sore butt and turned to her lover's direction.

"What was that all about?" Michiru asked, baffled by the surprising push Haruka gave her. The blonde blushed as she covered her exposed body back using her clothes before.

"Ahh... I'm sorry... It's just that..." Haruka apologized sincerely then her voice started to falter out of nervousness. "I mean.. ahh... it's.. show..ano..."

"Show?"

"show--er..."

"Shower?" cocking her eyebrow out of suspicion

"Yes! I should take a shower first."

"Ruka, if you wanted to take a shower you could just have told me instead of pushing abruptly."

"Sorry..." muttered Haruka.

Michiru sighed then smiled. "Let me shower with you."

"NO!!" Haruka voiced out in an instant earning a slightly shocked Michiru in return. "I mean, we can't... cause... I... I have my period."

"oh.. you should have told me."

"Sorry."

"Oh well... go ahead, Ruka. I'll go next after you." sighed disappointedly by Michiru. Haruka nodded.

She walked towards the bathroom not until hearing Michiru speaking once again.

"Well sex can wait. After all it's only for five days."

Teal eyes quickly bulged out of their own socket.

"Ne, Ruka?" asked sweetly by her lover.

Haruka sweatdrops. She turned her head around then faked a smile. "Hai. In just five days."

The blonde spun around and walked towards the bathroom but now along with the feeling of horror, distress, agitation and nervousness.

'Holy #&!! Kami-sama!!'

Next chap is about "Haruka's troubles in bed"

Hahaha.. that's the reason why she pushed Michi off.
