Chapter 4: sounds right… feels right…

Nightfall came fast and a certain blunette had just finished grilling three whole fishes and a pot of rice on a camp fire she made. Despite of being on a deserted island, Natsuki knew how to cook and having a fridge full of uncooked meat made it a lot easier. She placed the fishes on a plate and carried it to the wooden table where the pot of rice was already placed and a single lit candle at the middle. She internally smiled at what she did. She never did cook anything for someone before since her friends always tell her that she can burn a kitchen and she can only prepare mayo on bread(1). But being in that island taught her how to survive on her own, since she's been sent there every time her mother's not pleased with her. But the thought of a mayo-less dinner sent the blunette into a sad state. 'Damn punishment robs me off my favorite food!' she cursed mentally.

Natsuki looked around, hoping to see Shizuru and her wolf so that they can start eating. She sighed when she couldn't trace any sigh of the two with her sight. It left her one thing to do:

"DURAN COME!" Natsuki yelled at top of her lungs.

Without waiting for more than five seconds, the white wolf came running to Natsuki with Shizuru following him behind. Natsuki was tapping her foot to the sandy ground and had her arms in akimbo with a slight annoyed look. Somehow the wolf noticed his master's annoyed look and lowered its head as soon as he was arms reach to Natsuki.

The brunette saw the odd behavior of Duran and simply patted the wolf on its furry head. "There, there Duran, Natsuki won't hurt you." she said sweetly to the wolf. Duran understood what Shizuru was saying looked up to the brunette and wagged its tail.

Natsuki's annoyed look had been replaced by a tired sigh. "You know, it's still awkward for me to see Duran following anyone else but me... Following without the head biting part that is." She said in disbelief while shaking her head.

Shizuru smiled at Natsuki while patting the wolf's head. "Ara! Why is Natsuki still surprised about Duran being friendly with me? Did Duran bit anyone's head perhaps?" Shizuru asked curiously.

Walking towards the brunette and Duran, the blunette could only laugh out loud at what Shizuru asked to her. The brunette cocked her head in confusion and waited for Natsuki to stop laughing like an idiot.

After a few stomach cramping laughs, Natsuki waved her hand, saying that she would stop laughing. She cleared her throat and crouched down to the level of Duran and ruffled its fur. "I meant it literary Shizuru, Duran bites off the head of any strangers. He bit the ear of someone that once annoyed me and constantly trying to hold me while I'm with Duran. And swear, I'm proud of my little Duran after that! Hahahaha!" Natsuki said with a hearty laugh.

"Ara! Duran's been a bad boy? But Duran likes me, doesn't he?" Shizuru asked playfully while ruffling the wolf's fur which earned her an affirming bark from the wolf. She then faced the smiling Natsuki and smiled sweetly. "And Natsuki likes me too right?" Shizuru said in a sweet yet oblivious tone. Oblivious because she didn't intended to ask then blunette with a real sweet tone and not a flirting tone.

Natsuki stopped ruffling the wolf's head and turned to look at the crimson eyed goddess before her. She cocked head and smiled back sweetly to Shizuru. "Of course!" was the cheerful yet unconscious answer of the blunette. An unconscious truthful answer that is.

Shizuru felt her heart skipped a beat when she saw the sweetness in Natsuki's smile. She stared into those emerald eyes, making herself lost among its moonlit glint. Her hart felt like soaring in the air as she gazes into Natsuki's eyes. 'Ara, ara… her eyes are so… beautiful…'

5…4…3…2…1 Natsuki's brain started to comprehend what she just said. Her mind began to scramble in panic, thinking that Shizuru might think she's a flirt or something like what the other girls think of her (A/N: the reason will be revealed in later chappies ^-^). She saw how the brunette stared at her, speechless. Her smile dropped and her face showed panic in every inch of it. she started blushing and sweating from all the panic in her head. "A-Ah! A-ano… i- uhm- I was… uhh… sorry?" Natsuki can't make a full sentence to let her explain her sudden answer.

'ara! She's very cute!!'shizuru squealed mentally. She maintained her composed look and chuckled at how cute she thinks of Natsuki going into panic. "Ara, ara! Natsuki's shouldn't panic or worry… I'm not offended at what you answered. Honestly, I thought it was sweet." She said in her sweet, alluring Kyoto-ben accent. As much as she's amused at how Natsuki looks cute when she's blushing, the blunette's panic state can really make her mind squeal in delight.

Natsuki was now blushing furiously. She averted her look to her left and saw the dinner she prepared. She pointed her left index finger to the wooden table and tried to remove her blush. "uhm.. Maybe we should eat… u-uhm… B-before Duran starts to let out a hungry howl." She suggested.

Shizuru nodded and didn't further tease the blunette. She still has her sweet smile on her face and went to follow Natsuki that's walking towards the wooden table. When both of then settled at the table while Duran waited patiently at the side of its master.

Quietness filled the whole fifteen minutes of their dinner and the sound of the flowing ocean made the whole island a serene place.

"This place is very much romantic at night." Shizuru said, breaking the silence. She was eating gracefully the food that Natsuki prepared. Though it wasn't again the usual food she had when she's at home, it still taste's great to her. As if it was prepared with a lot of effort.

Natsuki looked at Shizuru with a perplexed look. Gulping down the food on her mouth and, she looked around her. "Romantic? How can this place be romantic to you?" she asked curiously.

Shizuru looked at the curious looking Natsuki and somehow she found it adorable. As if she's seeing a cute wolf pup. 'kawaii! If I can, I'll hug you right now my cute little pup!' she squealed mentally. She placed her elbows atop the table and clasps her hands. She then rested her chin atop her clasped hands and smiled. "Yes, it's very romantic. And with us eating together, alone and everything, makes it looks like we're on a date." She then paused for awhile and giggled. "Ayiee! Natsuki and I are having a date at a deserted island!" she teased.

"W-What?! Hey were just eating dinner!" Natsuki protested with a small blush on her face.

"fufufu, but it's like a romantic candle lit dinner. Though we lack of good food and wine." Shizuru said with a wink.

Natsuki blushed furiously and just diverted her gaze back to her food. "idiot…" she mumbled.

Shizuru giggled at the cute reaction of the blunette and she too just continued to eat her dinner. After eating dinner and washing the dishes by Natsuki, Shizuru let out a soft yawn.

"Don't go sleeping yet…" the blunette said, stopping Shziuru from entering the hut.

"ara! Is there something that Natsuki wants to do to me before I sleep?" Shizuru teased, making the blunette blush.

"I-idiot! I'm just gonna put those to the plank- err... bed…" Natsuki said with a blush while pointing at the small stack of hay by the door of the hut. "Idon'twantyoutolaydownonthathardplank" she said In one breath, hoping that Shizuru might not even understand.

Unfortunately, Shizuru heard it clearly. "ohh, my Natsuki's very caring about me." She teased again.

Natsuki ignored Shizuru's words and went to get the stack of hay and dropped it at the wooden plank. She fixed the hay and made sure that it was comfortable for the crimson eyes brunette. 'i hope this would be comfortable enough for her… hey! Why am I being concerned on that woman?! Tch! I'm a damn ice princess and this girl just made me a softie! Grr now I get it why I'm in this place and I swear I'll never do anything stupid again if I have to be with this girl!'

"Natsuki… Natsuki…" a sweet Kyoto-ben accent said from behind the blunette that made her jumped up in surprise.

"shi-shizuru?!" Natsuki said in surprise.

"ara! I called for you for a few times and you seem to be lost in your thoughts. Hmm were you thinking of something about me and the bed, Nat-su-ki?" the brunette playfully teased, making Natsuki blush.

"N-no! tch! Just go to bed!" the blunette roared, putting both her hands inside her shirt's pockets and stomped out of the hut.

"ara, ara, even when mad she's cute. But…" Shizuru turned around and examined the hut. She placed her left index finger over her lower lip and her right hand on her left side waist, making up a thinking pose. "Where would Natsuki sleep tonight… come to think of it, where dos she sleep when I was sick? She asked to no one. She looked at the hay covered plank and then to the door. She walked towards the hut's door and peeked outside to look for a certain midnight haired girl.

"Natsuki…" Shizuru whispered.

"It's late, take your sleep." A cold voice said from the side.

Shizuru looked beside her and saw Natsuki looking up at her and sitting at the sand, with her legs folded up to her chest and her arms encircling her legs to maintain its position. 'She must've been sleeping there for the past two days.' She blinked for a few times and smiled. "ara! I won't sleep if Natsuki won't join me." She teased. She knew that even in the semi dark surroundings, she can see the blush on Natsuki's face.

Natsuki groaned and hung he head at her knees. "Go back inside… if it's cold use the blanket. If the blaket doesn't work, calling Duran to sleep beside you. Don't worry he doesn't have fleas." She said coldy, shivering a little from the cold wind that passed her body.

Shizuru raised an eyebrow and went to stand beside the blunette. She reached down to grab the blunette's right wrist and pulled her up to stand. "I cannot bear to see someone like you shivering from the cold." Shizuru said with a concern tone.

"I told you before, this place is my punishment. Sleeping in the cold is not new to me, but to you it is. So go back inside and sleep!" Natsuki said coldly, removing Shizuru's hand on her wrist.

"But I'm scared to sleep alone." Shziuru lied, hoping it would make the blunette to sleep inside.

"Duran's there."

"But nobody would give me a hug if I feel cold."

Natsuki felt a blush creep on her face and her mind began to think of naughty things. She shook all of the perverted things in her mind and glared at Shizuru. "Then that makes it more of a reason for me on NOT to sleep inside." Natsuki said.

'Hmm I see she won't go in by pleading then maybe this would do.' She smiled in her mind. Having an evil plan, she quickly covered her face with both of her hands and let out a convincing whimper. "I-ikezu! Natsuki must be thinking that I smell bad that's why she doesn't want to sleep with me!" she cried out.

"WHAT?! I did not say that!"

"b-but Natsuki doesn't want to sleep inside with me… I must be disgusting for my Natsuki!"

"h-hey! Don't go saying I'm yours alright and no you're not disgusting!"

Shizuru then sobbed louder and shook her head. "My Natsuki hates me! Awhile ago she said she likes me but now she hates me!" Shizuru whined. 'Hmm saying Natsuki's mine sounds very right… I wonder why…"

Natsuki brumbled and scratched the back of her head. "Alright! alright! Stop crying." She let out a sigh and went inside the hut. "If you don't get inside now, you'll catch a cold!" she yelled out. 'pft! Stupid girl, crying over this… but her claiming me hers feels pretty good inside… I wonder…'

Shizuru removed her hands from her face and revealed a triumphant smile. "Coming MY Natsuki!" she said cheerfully, following the brunette inside the hut. "ara that really sounds good!'

Inside, Natsuki had settled down to the edge of the hay covered plank and pointed the other side. "You take that side… it would be a shame if you fall down." She said coldly before lying down to her side and closing her eyes.

"Ookini! My Natsuki's so sweet for making sure I'm safe." Shizuru said sweetly, moving to her side of the hay covered plank and lying down. She heard a grunt from the blunette but decided to smile and drift to sleep.

The next day, Shizuru woke up feeling comfortable and safe. She glances down and saw the sleeping Natsuki, hugging her waist and snuggled between her breasts. 'Ara1 she looks so cute! But shouldn't I push her away since she's kinda groping my breasts with her cute face.' she thought. She looked at how cute Natsuki was and smiled. 'I guess I shouldn't… it's all too cute!' she stroked Natsuki's hair gently and inhaled the intoxicating scent of Natsuki.

After a few minutes of adorin the sleeping Natsuki, Shizuru felt her stomach grumbled. She sighed and had no choice but to wake the blunette since she was trapped between the blunette's grasp. "Natsuki its time to wake up." She said softly.

"mmmh.. Soft pillow… no talks… sleep…" Natsuki said in her sleep. She then shifted her grasp to a place much lower of Shizuru's waist. "Soft…pillow… mmh!" Natsuki was now sleep smiling at the feeling she felt in her hands while making sure her head was comfortable as well.

Shizuru only blushed at how the sleeping Natsuki was touching her. Somehow, she can't comprehend why she's not screaming and accusing Natsuki as a pervert. Instead, she kinda liked the feeling. After several seconds of removing all the bad things in her mind, she tried to wriggle out of Natsuki's hug. "Natsuki should wake up unless she wants to do 'this and that' to me." Shizuru said in Natsuki's ear.

Somehow, what Shizuru said had reached Natsuki's brain and made the blunette groggily open her eyes. Shizuru just smiled sweetly at how Natsuki has a sleepy look on her face.

Natsuki cleared her vision by rubbing her eyes with her right hand. 'This pillow feels so nice and soft… wait… I don't have a pillow since Shizuru..uh oh..' Her eyes went wide open when she saw Shizuru's breasts infront of her. "HOLY SHIT!" she cursed out loud. She removes her hands away from their 'soft' places and Natsuki scampered away from the brunette that made her fall down from the plank.
