Mai HiME

Hidden Romance

I own nothing but my insane mind and the songs and fictional movies titles…

Yuuki Nao is happily in a great relationship, but that doesn't stop her from picking fight with the students at the kendo clubs or any other martial art related clubs in the college she's attending. To make matter worst, her partner in crime was a notorious street fighter. The girl with spiky black hair and braided sideburns; Minagi Mikoto, a smart student with a history of breaking people's bones, the girl was every bit of a psycho in a fight as she is in eating foods.

"Yuuki Nao, how many times did I tell you to behave and do well in school? I am not dating a delinquent," a young girl with pink hair tied up making her looked like she got an octopus on her head. "Come on Shiho, it was just for kicks. We didn't hurt anybody," the red head said in her cute voice hoping her girlfriend would calm down. "Don't you 'we' me! I always saw you dragging her into all kind of trouble, you're lucky her brother hadn't get a restraining order against you yet. Why can't you just act a little more like her and pay more attention to your study and me instead of picking fight?" Shiho was really mad because she's raising her voice. It was a good thing that they're not in public places, otherwise Nao would have to dug a hole to hide herself from humiliation. The almighty Yuuki Nao is being scolded by not her mother, but her girlfriend of five years.

"Ani-ue!" the young feral girl said excitedly as she gave her brother a fierce hug she always did everyday she comes home from school. "Mikoto, you should stop hanging out with Yuuki Nao. Look at you, got into another fight again?" Kanzaki Reito spoke softly to his sister as he examined the bruise on her right arm. "No, there were some thugs trying to mug an elder woman today. We were on our way back school, so Nao and I jumped in and saved the lady. Those guys were tough though," Mikoto grinned satisfyingly about her actions. "Good girl, now go take a shower and change into something nice. We're having a tutor for you, since your grades had been slipping for the last two semesters now." Reito said petting his sister before letting go of her.

"Ani-ue, I'm hungry." Mikoto declared coming down the stairs after her shower and changing into her loose jeans and t-shirt. No one answered and her brother was nowhere in sight, so the young girl decided to look for foods in the kitchen. Piping hot on the dish placed on the table was a steak, Mikoto grabbed the steak sauce and pour over the steak almost drowning it. The feral girl ate hungrily; chewing thoroughly fearing her brother might come in and scolded her for not chewing it right.

"Mikoto, there's someone I like you to meet." Reito's voice echoed to the kitchen from the living room. By this time Mikoto was just finishing her food and dumped the plate into the sink, she chugged down a glass of orange juice and wiped her mouth before coming out of the kitchen. Like a kitten, the feral girl was curious about the sudden visitor since they rarely have guests over. Of course that this is going to be Mikoto's home once she turned twenty, Reito already got his pad but he still preferred to be home for his sister when she comes home from school. At least until his baby sister grown up and settle down will he move back to his own place that he got a few years ago.

"Mikoto, this is my good friend from high school: Tohkiha Mai. She will be your tutor from now on until you improve your grades in school." Reito said as Mikoto just stared at the strawberry orange top with a busty chest. "Well, the tutor can start now. I have a meeting to attend so I'll talk to you guys later. Mikoto be a good girl and don't chase her out like you did with some of the others," Reito warned his sister before bidding his friend good-bye.

"Hello Mikoto, I'm Mai." Mai spoke softly as she smiled brightly. "Mai!" Mikoto exclaimed as she suddenly hugged the older woman and snuggled up against her chest. Her sudden action startled Mai causing her to let out a gasp and then a light moan when she felt Mikoto's face rubbing against her chest. Reito did warn her that his sister was a little more than energetic, but he never said anything about the girl digging her face into people's chest.

To Mikoto, it felt good and it's about the first time she seen anyone with such a chest size besides Shizuru. She snuggled up to the brunette once and was nearly killed by an overly jealous wolf, of course there's no way the wolf was any match for her but she was helping Shizuru to get the wolf to admitted her feelings for Shizuru. Mikoto went easy on the biker, but that landed her in the hospital and Shizuru ended up visiting her everyday and taken care of her until she was all better again. After that incident, she told Shizuru that there's no way she would ever hug Shizuru again and the brunette only giggled at the feral girl's declaration.

Mai helped Mikoto with her studying, but somehow they ended up in the girl's bedroom instead of the living room. Just as they're finishing up the session, Mikoto's phone started ringing nonstop and the feral girl picked it up with much reluctant. Obviously she seemed to know who was on the other line of the phone, and this moment isn't the best because the woman in front of her was more interesting than food.

"Mikoto, what the hell took you so long to answer?" Nao's voice echoed through the phone and Mai could hear it clearly even though she's not right next to Mikoto. "Studying, I have papers to finish you know." Mikoto shrugged putting the phone a few inches away from her ear. "What the hell?! We're supposed to go to a movie tonight," Nao yelled. "What movie? You said nothing about it," Mikoto asked with a confused look on her face. "Look, Shiho wanted to go to a movie and there's probably tons of pervs there, so I want you to come with me just in case." Nao trailed off. "You're being unreasonable and ridiculous, you know that? You're going on a date with Shiho and yet you wanted me to tag along like a third wheel," Mikoto said sounding very mature for the first time. She surprised both Nao and Mai at the same time, since either of them ever seen or heard the feral girl to sound so serious before.

They argued for a few minutes more, but Mikoto give in and grabbed her jacket and pulled Mai along with her. Mikoto drove a slick black Honda Civic to the theatre; she parked right next to a bright red Toyota Spider convertible and knocked on the window of the sport car. Mai thought it was odd to why the girl would be knocking at an empty car, but was she ever wrong about it being empty.

"What?!" a female's voice rung out as the window got rolled down. "Are we going to watch a movie or are you guys rather just making out in the car instead?" Mikoto said firmly hinting slight irritation within her voice. With that, no words were uttered as the read head got out of the car along with the girl with a pink octopus on her head. They all exchange greetings and headed for the ticket office and bought their tickets to the show that Nao wanted to see.

Shiho ended up walking out half way through the movie, causing Nao to come after her. Mai, who didn't walked out because she was scared stiff and practically clung onto Mikoto. Mikoto decided to helped the older woman up and leave the movie before she would totally died from fright, only to watched Nao and Shiho got into another argument over the content of the movie. Nao was completely whipped by Shiho and they ended up watching something that's not in the extreme horror section.

"Yuki, Yuki!!" a young girl with long brown hair shouted as she was taken away by men in black suit. "Aya…me…" the short black hair said as she was badly beaten up was left to die. She was bleeding and bruising, her vision was failing on her as well as her strength. But when she opened her eyes again, she was in a hospital and a young doctor with wild looking brown hair and glasses was examining her. The young girl was still in her delirious state as she grabbed the doctor and hugged her calling out the name of the other brunette.

Months went by and Yuki finally recovered, the doctor's father offered to train her in the art of self-defense. Soon a blossoming relationship between the young doctor and Yuki started, but it was put in the back seat because Yuki had to save someone. Leaving the doctor behind, Yuki traveled a perilous journey to find her beloved Ayame again.

Stained her hands in blood, she killed to get the information she needed to find Ayame. All the while Ayame was being well-treated as her father planned to married her off to his friend's snotty son. Ayame cried and cried, in her mind Yuki died because of her. But a suddenly explosion brought her out of her misery, the door to her room swung open and there stood Yuki. Her Yuki looked bloody with a crazed look in her golden eyes; Ayame was happy but scared at the same time seeing Yuki looking like that.

"Ayame, let's go to where they can never break us apart." Yuki said as she approached the brunette. "I missed you so much Yuki, my Yuki…" Ayame murmured as she hugged the other girl. "So am I," Yuki whispered hugging onto the brunette tightly fearing that she would be taken away if Yuki let go. "Let's go to a place where we can be together forever," Ayame said as she pressed the button on the detonator Yuki was holding in her hand and set the place ablaze. The young lovers held each other tightly as the flame danced around them, blissfully even in the flame they kissed passionately.

"Oh god, that movie was sappy." Nao complained as they left as the credit rolled. "Well, it was called 'Undying Love'." Shiho said sniffling lightly. "That fire was really hot," Mikoto said absentmindedly. "Oh yeah, wasn't this your debut role?" Shiho peeked over at the feral girl. "No, 'Love is where the Soul belongs' was my debut." Mikoto replied. "That one was good, a singer by day and a killer by night." Nao said. Mai was slow at first but she quickly caught on the pace of the conversation, and those titles reminded her of her friend praising a certain young girl's acting skills. "Let's get out of here before someone start screaming her name," Nao announced as they split and raced out of the parking lot.

"I didn't know you're an action movie star," Mai said as Mikoto drove home. "Ani-ue was directing them and he figured that I should learn how to be in the media business by being in one," Mikoto replied. "I'm nineteen, a college student, so naturally I just wanted to hang out with my friends, compete in tournaments in kendo, track, and tennis. Maybe dating, break up, cry and get over it. I don't know," Mikoto said as she herself isn't sure of which roads to tread upon. Mai become interested in Mikoto's straight forward answer, at least the girl know what she wanted out of life unlike Mai, who is still undecided as to whether opening her own restaurant or just work for one.

Just then her phone rung and it turned out to be her brother, calling to tell her that he might not be home because he's taking care of a sick friend. Though Mikoto acted like she always does, she knew that her brother was going to his place with a man. It's quite obvious that her brother prefer the company of men over women, though he's too charming for anyone to think he's gay. Being the man of lime light, Reito managed to kept his private life private.

For weeks, Mai continued tutoring Mikoto and it seemed that Mikoto didn't really needed Mai's tutoring at all. Reito just asked Mai to tutor his sister as an excuse to help his sister growing out of her kid's frame of mind. Somehow, Mai ended up spending most of her times watching Mikoto practicing her activities from her clubs in college, the girl then took her home where she cooked delicious meals for the feral girl before the tutoring session started. Mai was happy beyond words because the girl always looked so happy eating her cooking and savoring the taste like she'd never tasted anything that good before.

"Would Mai stay with me tonight? Ani-ue won't be home tonight, they have a shooting somewhere in Okinawa." Mikoto asked after the tutoring session was over. "Sure," Mai nodded after a long moment of thought. "Mai!" the feral girl tackled the busty woman onto the bed and rubbing her face against those breasts. "Ahhh…" Mai let a moan escaped her lips at Mikoto's action. "Your heart is beating beautifully," Mikoto whispered as she stopped rubbing her face against Mai's chest. "You're so romantic you know that," Mai sighed ruffling Mikoto's hair. "I'm sure there are a slew of people waiting to be your date," Mai continued feeling a slight pain within her heart.

"Mai can be my girlfriend. Mm!" Mikoto said as she rolled off of Mai and got out of bed. "Wait, what?!" Mai was caught by surprised and shocked to be asked to be a girl's girlfriend. "Well, Mai is single and dated a gay man before that." Mikoto said as her eyes changed from happy to serious. "How did you know that?" Mai asked sitting up. "He's ani-ue's boyfriend. I overheard them talking about Mai in a very fondly way, they said that Mai wasn't really attracted to men." Mikoto was being calm and firm about her words. It was true, Mai did dated Yuuichi Tate when she was in high school but they broke up after a few months of being together because he finally comes to term with his sexuality as Mai was still in her confusing state.
