"Chidori, are you sure," he gulped, looking at her flawless body underneath him.

She touched his face, "I've wanted this for a long time. I want you, Sousuke."

He listened to her moan as he plunged into her, "Chidori," he gasped as she clawed his back, "Oh, uh, Chidori."

"Kiss me Sousuke," Kurz mocked.

Sousuke shot up, "Kurz, what are you doing in my room?"

Kurz wiggled his eyebrows, "Dreaming about that fine Miss Chidori. She likes you, I don't get why you don't just go for it."

"I would never disrespect her like that," he was appalled by the words of his friend.

Kurz scuffed, "Fine, but if you don't hit that soon someone else is gonna."

Sousuke let out a deep breath as Kurz left. He didn't want Chidori like that. It was just a dream. A fantastic, wonderful dream. He shook his head. She was still a mission. That he'd been on for quite some time now. As far as Tessa and Mithril could tell she wasn't in any danger anymore. But he insisted on being her body guard, for reasons he didn't understand. He quickly got dressed, knowing full well she'd be pissed that he missed first period. He packed his things and headed for the hanger. He checked his phone. Nothing. Why was her not texting or calling him bothering him? He snapped his phone shut. She was probably just too angry to care.

"Sergeant Serious," Mao called, "A moment of your time."

Sousuke looked at her, "Yes, how can I be of assistance?"

She rolled her eyes, "Loosen up Sousuke. Tessa is starting to think its time for you to get assigned a new mission. Things with Chidori seem fine and it doesn't look like anyone is after her anymore so maybe you should get back to your job."

"No," he replied.

Kurz and Mao blinked, "What?"

Sousuke looked at them, "I said no. I will not be reassigned. I'm doing my job which is being her body guard. Last time I was told I was reassigned she was attacked and I was told she was dead so no. I made a promise that I would never leave her alone again. As a soldier, I will keep that promise."

"But Sousuke," Mao began.

"NO," Sousuke growled.

He looked out the window as his team mates stared at him. How dare Tessa try and reassign him. Especially after what happened last time. No, he would not leave her alone and unprotected again. The helicopter landed on the baseball field. He got out quickly, looking at his watch. He began to sweat. He'd missed first and second period. She was going to kill him. He walked into class quietly, hoping she might not notice him. But she wasn't there. He leaned towards Kyoko.

"Where's Chidori," he asked.

She looked at him, "Kana-chan won't be here today. Her dad flew in from America on business so she's spending the day with him."

"I see," Sousuke looked back at the board.

He hadn't been informed about her father coming to Japan. His mind started racing, what if this was a trap? His breathing became a bit irregular as paranoia set in. He headed straight to her apartment after school. He knocked a few times. He stood straight as an older man opened the door.

"Hello. My name is Sousuke Sagara," he announced, "I'm looking for Miss Kaname Chidori."

"Ah," the older man moved aside, "Please come in, she's in the living area. I'm Kaname's father."

They shook hands. Sousuke followed Chidori's father into the living room. Chidori sat in the couch with a photo album in her lap. She looked perplexed when she noticed Sousuke. He gave her a wave and a small smile. She returned the gestures, telling him to take a seat. He sat quietly as Chidori and her father spoke, looking through her photos.

"Well, I have a meeting that I must go to so I think it's time I leave," he kissed Chidori's forehead, "Be good. Next time I come I'll make sure to have more time to spend with you."

She nodded, "Have a safe trip home."

They both watched as her father left. She let out a small sigh. Sousuke noticed how her features saddened a bit as her father left. He lowered his eyes, knowing how it felt to miss ones family. He didn't have any, of course. He looked back up when he saw movement. Chidori had stood from the couch. She stretched a bit. Her shirt lifted as she raised her arms, exposing her stomach. Sousuke's eyes moved from her bellybutton up to her chest. He felt his face get hot as he looked back down.

"Would you like some tea," he heard her ask.

"Yes, tea would be nice," he sat straight, "Thank you."

She laughed, "You can relax Sousuke, it's just me."

He took a gulp. It being just the two of them was the problem. She walked into the kitchen, motioning for him to follow. He stood in the doorway, not sure if he should sit or not. He made sure to stay focused, listening for any foreign sounds. She placed the tea on the table and gestured for him to take a seat. He was so rigid in his movements. She laughed as he sipped his tea. She really wished he would relax.

"Would you like a massage," she asked.

"A-a what," he stuttered.

She smiled, "A massage. To help you relax."

"Um, well," he began to sweat, "I should not be taking suck offers while on duty."

She shrugged, "Suit yourself Sergeant Stern."

He let out a deep breath. She sipped her tea slowly, watching his movements. He always seemed so uptight, so…she didn't even know how to describe it. He fidgeted in his chair a lot, staying alert to ever sound, every movement. She let out a deep breath, shaking her head. There really was no hope for this guy. He looked around nervously, forgetting his tea. Something about being here alone really set him off balance. He watched Chidori stand, analyzing her every move.

"Finish your tea while I take a shower," she ordered, "I'm taking you out."

"Taking me out…," he thought for a moment, "Wait, did you say shower?"

She rolled her eyes, "Yes, shower. You know, the thing that makes you clean. And out as in I'm taking you shopping."

"Why, why do you need to shower," he gulped, "Can't you take one tonight, or in the morning? Why do you need one right now?"

"Sousuke," she gripped the collar of his shirt, "Come with me."

She pulled him towards her bedroom, "What are you doing? Chidori this is totally inappropriate!"

She pushed him face down on the bed, "Will you," she climbed on top of him, "stop fidgeting and relax."

She gripped his shoulders, allowing her fingers to press into his skin. She massaged his shoulders, getting deep into the tissues. His body felt so tense. His job must have more of a toll on his body then she thought. He always looked so composed. This much stress wasn't healthy for anyone. She moved to in between his shoulder blades then down his back. She could feel the muscles in his back loosen a bit. She smiled, glad she might be offering some kind of help.

"That feels good," he mumbled, his eyes closing.

"Good," her hands moved lower, "See, relaxing isn't a bad thing, right," she waited for an answer, "Sousuke?"

She moved to massage his neck, noticing he was falling asleep. She climbed off of him once she was finished. He was sound asleep, the normal worry lines on his face smoothed out. She ran her fingers through his hair, which looked like it needed to be cut again. She removed his shoes and his button up shirt, leaving his tank top on. She then searched for all his weapons. She didn't want him killing himself, or her for that matter, in his sleep. Her eyes grew wide with all she found. She folded the covers over, pulling Sousuke to the top of the bed. She covered him and kissed his forehead.

She lay next to him, on top of the covers, "Oh Sousuke," she smiled, "what am I going to do with you."
