Usagi groaned out while biting her lip to suppress her moans to the best of her ability while she entangled her fingers into her partner's midnight hair as her male partner peppered wet kisses down her neck. Enjoying the feeling Usagi arched her back slightly and positioned her neck so the male would have more access to it.
"Usagi," The male staring into her bright blue eyes full of lust voiced out, "You're doing it again."
"Oh.. sorry," Usagi blushed crimson pulling off him feeling the mood the two were trying to create for the evening after another dinner date be killed.
"It's okay sweetheart, maybe next time," The man said pulling away from her on the edge of the bed and stood up and headed out of the room to neaten himself up.
Usagi let out a sigh of defeat. Her fiance, Seiya, was a wonderful admirable man of the business world. He was just so picky and precise to a point Usagi couldn't let her inner lioness out. He wanted her to be like a doll, to sit still and look pretty while he attempted to make love to her. They never actually had made love yet still to her dismay and Usagi often troubled her mind to the thought of how it would actually work and if it would even be pleasurable for her. She was a passionate girl and full of expression for her passion, Seiya was more opposed to this, he was displeased by Usagi's moans and mews and by her body's response to his displays of love towards her. It often stopped Seiya in his tracks during their makeout sessions or attempts to consummate their relationship. The two had been dating for four years now and it was as of recently both of their fathers' ideas to have the two to get engaged. In high society it only brought around positive gossip about the two families, and therefore good business for both men's companies. Usagi wasn't sure she was ready for a marriage nonetheless to be engaged, sure she loved Seiya they were childhood friends turned lovers when she fifteen and he was eighteen, but Usagi was only nineteen to Seiya's twenty two she felt they had plenty of time to decide to get married later in life if it wasn't for the rush of their fathers.
Seiya returned back to Usagi's elegant bedroom after neatening up noticing the saddened lost look in Usagi's eyes, "Don't be sad love, plus it's improper for us to indulge in such acts until we are married," he smiled gently at her.
Usagi only nodded but thought to herself that it was better to try the milk before you buy the cow. She may have loved Seiya but she didn't want to have miserable sex for the rest of her life.
Her sex life, or lack there of wasn't the only thing Seiya controlled about her, but Usagi being the type of girl she was a carefree romantic with the mind of that of a young girl that believed fairy tales occurred in this day of age and simply overlooked Seiya's manipulations with her they didn't hurt her really it was just hard for her to adjust her personality and needs for him.
Usagi was not allowed to do a lot while she was with Seiya, her friendships were strained because her friends were not proper and she shouldn't be seen in the public eye with girls like them because of their fathers' businesses, she had to watch everything she ate (this much to her dismay because Usagi had quite the infamous appetite it wasn't because the girl would gain weight from her food choices it was just Seiya preferred her to eat like a lady as he always stated), her outfits, purchased by Seiya and his father, were all modest in hopes Usagi would stop wearing that of what a teenager would wear even though Usagi in her fair right was still a teenager, and of course Seiya controlled Usagi's affections for him halting any sort of action between the two if Usagi did the wrong thing.
Usagi unfortunately revealed her misfortune in her fiance to her friends and the characteristics he tried to suppress in her and her friends now despised the man frequently stating he would be better off with a blow up doll. Usagi had done her best to not agree with her friends and to defend her fiance but in the back of her mind she knew they were right. Usagi was not a girl to be tamed not that she was outwardly wild but Usagi was a free spirit.
"Usagi please neaten up? We have to head out to company outing," She heard Seiya hollar from the other room.
Usagi let out a small grunt which he couldn't hear and got up and began to brush her hair and tie into a presentable bun that Seiya preferred rather than her signature look because this made her look more regal he stated. She smoothed her dress shirt and knee length pencil skirt making sure she didn't see any wrinkles before slipping on her black flats and waited for her fiancee to lead her to this outing she very much dreaded.
These outings were just business meetings with dinner and with dinner Usagi couldn't even eat her favorites she knew she would be limited to a simple soup or salad. One thing did make the dinners better. While Seiya was all business his older brother Mamoru definitely did his best to entertain the young blonde and even occasionally snuck her bread under the table or would have her glass filled with wine with no one's knowledge but his. The two often had pleasant and civil conversations during these outings. But Usagi could remember a time when they weren't so pleasant to one another. When she was childhood friends with Seiya his older brother, Mamoru, made a point to pick on her constantly about her hairstyle, her bad grades, her appetite, and when she started dating his younger brother he was always teasing them when she was around but when their engagement was announced not too long ago Mamoru did a one eighty and started to act decent, there was no conversation about the change or an apology in his previous actions but Usagi forgave him but she was always ultimately curious as to why Mamoru suddenly acted like a friend to her. Was it because his brother or father had asked him to, was it because he knew the adaption to being more of a lady for the sake of the company he knew was a hard change for her, or was he simply ready for them both to grow up. These were questions that often crossed Usagi's mind when she thought of Mamoru among other things. Mamoru was only two years older than Seiya but Usagi remembered when she was only eleven and Mamoru was sixteen, while Seiya was fourteen, Usagi remembered crushing on Mamoru when Seiya was only her friend. She always and still found him attractive in a way she couldn't describe there was this aspect of rugged man in him he was very tall, built well but not too bulky Usagi never found men who were all muscles attractive and had midnight hair that hung perfectly around his eyes, while she was attracted to Seiya, a slightly younger, shorter physical version of him just with a long ponytail that hung against his back, she mentally always had a preference for Mamoru she never spoke on not even to her best friends, such a thing was very scandalous and she knew her friends would tease disapprovingly.
"What are you thinking about," Seiya said with a gentle smile on his face but his tone didn't demonstrate the kindness his face showed it was emotionless.
"Nothing sorry, are you ready?" Usagi smiled.
Seiya nodded and escorted her out of the apartment with a gentle hand on her back not wandering too low especially now that they were in the public eye.
"Ah son! You are here now," Mr. Chiba said with that same smile Seiya had with that same emotionless tone. Mr. Chiba and Seiya carried themselves similarly but Usagi knew outside of the public Mr. Chiba was a very caring man and looked forward to him being her father in law that she wasn't worried about. His wife Mrs. Chiba carried a warm genuine smile Usagi saw a lot of similarities with his mother unable to be emotionless in public her heart was too good.
"Usagi," Mrs. Chiba smiled extending her hand to the girl bringing her into a gentle hug, "I am very glad to see you sit next to me,"
Both woman followed the men with Mamoru following behind them into the restaurant where the rest of the business men were waiting. Usagi found herself sitting next to Mrs. Chiba and Mamoru while Mrs. Chiba sat next to Mr. Chiba with Seiya on his other side paying attention to business.
Usagi let out a silent huff in annoyance her fiance couldn't even sit himself with her on such outings.
"Don't huff Odango," Mamoru whispered in a silent tone she could only hear.
Before she could retort to the childhood nickname Mamoru whispered again, "I am sorry your love," putting obvious sarcasm on the word but Usagi had no clue as to why, "couldn't sit next to you but he is trying to show father his capability in the company," Mamoru whispered in hushed tones.
It was obvious her soon to be husband showed high interest in the family business more so than his older brother. Mamoru had his place in the company already he had proven himself and he was the head of their accounting department and one day when their father had passed Mamoru had made it clear he had no interest in running the company he felt being a boss was too much emotional work with caring about every employee he would rather work with numbers that carried no such emotion, but Seiya had all the interest to one day inherit the company. Mr. Chiba had yet to announce which son would get the company when his passing came or whenever he would retire but Seiya was doing all he could to prove himself righteous.
"Plus I can sneak you food," Mamoru smirked still whispering.
Usagi gave him a toying look of delight and proceeded to be as lady like as she could ordering herself only a chicken salad and a glass of water for dinner which was met with a gentle smile from Seiya in approval from across where Mr. Chiba sat.
Usagi also found herself pondering in moments like this what would happen if she should cross Seiya's guidelines, would he just say he was disappointed, or would he react, or would he leave her in search of a lady. She may have dated Seiya for years but since his interest in the company and outgrowing his childlikeness she felt like she hardly knew him and was clinging to her memory of him. She also noticed herself growing cold and finding herself becoming more and more pondering of her situation maybe it was her growing up.
She felt a nudge at her knee and then felt the soft buttery bread placed in her hand under the table.
Usagi turned and gave Mamoru a smile and mouthed thank you before tearing tiny pieces of the bread and bringing them to her mouth unnoticed till she finished the bread.
Mamoru would sneak her two more slices of the buttery bread knowing how pathetically small her salad was.
Mamoru felt for the girl seated next to him. Mamoru knew how he felt for her he was not oblivious to his own feelings. Hell when he heard the eleven year old girl back when he was sixteen had a crush on him he felt his heart soar but he knew it wasn't actually proper for a sixteen year old teenager to date a child he knew he would have to let her get a little older before he could act. He would wait till she was sixteen then it wouldn't be so scandalous and maybe his parents would allow it because they had grown up together. So in order to fight back his affections in her he teased her like that a child would when they would hide their feelings because that was all Mamoru could do around her then. But when she had aged fifteen and he had only one year left till he could do something with his feelings his brother had beaten him to the punch and asked her to be his significant other, this enraged him and he still sort of hated Seiya for it. Though he couldn't truly hate his brother, but he felt his brothers actions were a personal attack. He knew Seiya felt little to nothing for her except for that of a friend. Mamoru suspected Seiya asked her out to one up him like he always did. Mamoru was a simple man and desired simple things he lived below his means, he had no desire to own his father's company, and the only true desire he had and wanted was Usagi. Seiya wanted everything and often received less than Mamoru even as kids simply because he was younger and Mamoru was eldest and would receive everything and Mamoru could only assume his brother asked to date Usagi was to show he could get everything.
Now his parents were oh so proud of his little brother and disappointed with Mamoru. Maybe not disappointed they never said it but something along those feelings. When Seiya proposed to Usagi it didn't just crush him on the inside because the loss of Usagi was permanent but he had to deal with his parents shaming him for not having a wife before his little brother. Mamoru couldn't care if it wasn't Usagi nothing compared to her. No girl he fucked to distract him from the ache from her could compare for his affections for her. It wasn't just Usagi's looks. Sure she was stunning. She was a tiny girl with long ever flowing golden silk hair, a heart shaped face with the brightest biggest blue eyes he could stare into, long eyelashes, full pink inviting lips, full curves that fit her size and height, a tone slimmed waist, and the longest legs his eyes would wander. No she was beautiful but her personality is what enthralled him Usagi was unpredictable she could act like a lady like he was seeing of her now or she could speak words of venom when angered like he had done before during his teasings, she could laugh so hard she could fall to her knees bringing laughter out of the most emotionless people, and she brought joy to anyone around her.
He remembered when he used to tease her to hide his affections and sometimes he got a little jab in there every now and again to hide his true feelings or from making him say something stupid, but he only stopped his more brutal teasing that used to lead to full blown arguments or her crying much to his dismay not that he ever meant to hurt her or let his teasing get that far but he only stopped when his brother proposed putting the nail in the coffin that she was never going to be his and if he couldn't have her and she would have to tolerate everything his brother put her through then he would make sure he was there for her knowing he wouldn't let her talk to her own friends so he would step up and be her caring ear.
Once the meal had ended Seiya got up with his father leaving Mrs. Chiba, Mamoru, and Usagi at the table while the business men piled out. Mamoru quickly arose and pulled out his mother's chair and Usagi's chair like a true gentleman which was met with a smile from his mother.
"Always a gentleman," Mrs. Chiba smiled leaving the two alone.
"Thank you for the bread," Usagi smiled once his mother was out of sight.
"Anytime, you know you never have to ask," Mamoru gave her a wink and lead her out of the restaurant not trusting himself alone with her.
