The Promise

Prologue

Natsuki knew that Shizuru couldn't help being what she was. It wasn't even about her clothing, or lack of it depending on the situation. Shizuru was not one to wear casual things, but when they painted her apartment together, somehow she managed to make white shapeless coveralls look sexy. It was that feline-like body of hers, curvy, graceful, and inherently sensual. It was also that voice and serene expression that made you pay attention be it charming, flirtatious, or mundane; it didn't matter. Not that Natsuki thought that the former Kaichou was ignorant of the power she held, but Kuga also knew that there was no off button either. Take her or leave her, these were some of the parts that made up Fujino Shizuru.

She knew it was going to be a difficult year for Shizuru when she agreed to start dating her. In hindsight, she had no idea how hard it was going to be for her as well, the condition she put on at the start of the relationship.

No sex…

for now.
