Marital Bliss
Chapter 4 "Sex, Lies, And Spies"
Warning: mild language.
Usagi's car slowly pulled into the driveway, her watch repeating the time 1:03 am well into the morning; she had no idea what she was going to say to Mamoru would he freak out on her or would he accept her explanation for being late with no questions? she did not know, but right about now she felt a whole lot of butterflies in her stomach.
Usagi opened the door to her house and closed it as silently as could, she than tip toed ever so quietly upstairs to the bedroom she shared with her husband, maybe he would be asleep and there would be know explanation for tonight?
She opened the door, just her luck, he was sound asleep.
Usagi then went to her closet and began to undress,she slipped on a pair of lounge pants and a pink shirt, she took in a deep breath and took her place in bed next to Mamoru she rolled on her side making her back face him, she did not want to face him.
So she just closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
In the morning Usagi woke up to the smell of fresh brewed coffee and pancakes filled her nostrils, she new it was Mamoru's and decided against going downstairs for breakfast and instead hurried into the bath; After what she had done the past night with Seiya her nerves had shot up so she tried her best to avoid him, most attempts successful but the guilt was eating at her.
She had promised Seiya that she would try to be calm as did he, but still it was tough especially with a brooding six foot two man around.
"This is going to be one of those days..."Usagi sighed as she slowly slid herself into the hot water in her tub; the hot water helped ease her tense muscles, she aloud her long blond hair to fall into the water this time though, most of the time she would put it in a shower cap today she was going to allow herself the luxury of dipping it in the hot water, she dipped herself in the water.
And when she resurfaced she breathed a happy sigh.
"Seiya..." Usagi thought of her man, her lover, gods he was just so loving the other night showed her that by the way he had treated her, every minute of it had driven her mad with pleasure, the very touch of his skin would do that, and goodness his kiss...pure heaven.
Something her husband had not given her in the longest time.
Her thoughts then drifted to Mamoru and how she avoided him just to hide her crime but still...her heart told her to keep seeing Seiya, and that was just what she was going to do. She loved him she felt it to the core of her very being, she wanted to hold him forever.
Was her obligation to Mamoru going to keep her from him? No Usagi...Don't think like that, Marriage is not on obligation.
Usagi then remembered, how much she loved Mamoru at one point, the guilt began to overwhelm her again, she had to shake it off fast.
She continued her bath trying her best to keep her mind off of this situation she had gotten herself in.
By the time she had finished her bath her husband had left,and she had dressed in a blue long sleeve button down shirt and a navy blue skirt complete with matching high heels, she then proceeded to put on just a little bit of make up and lip gloss and hurried off to work; before she had reunited with Seiya those few months ago she would have taken her time to get to the office, but now she rushed the reason wasn't to become employee of the month though; it was to use the office phone to call him at his workplace.
Seiya had his own private line at work for personal use because of his family with Kakyuu, but now the two used it to arrange their meetings and to just catch up on one another's day and most conversations would go on for hours, goodness it was a miracle that Usagi had not been caught and fired yet.
A miracle...that was exactly what Usagi needed now.
-
A couple of miles down by the pier in Odaiba stood Kou Kakyuu, Seiya wife, she loved coming to Odaiba the sea breeze relaxed her and relaxation was exactly what she needed at this time, But what truly helped cheer her up was her name it meant fireball and the fact made her laugh at times because she loved water.
Kakyuu was not her on a casual stroll though she was here to see someone about a certain man in her life, one that was making her life hell.;She was pregnant six weeks along she wondered if Seiya had known about his third child would he have cared?
Would he even try to be there for her? Would he stop seeing that tramp that was taking him away from his family?
Forget it, nothing mattered anymore! All that mattered was Kakyuu and her children Seiya was beast in disguise she needn't bother with him anymore, all she needed to worry about was the man she had hired and nothing else.
The private investigator...
It did not take long to find him he was easy to tract down considering he always wore a dark trench coat and tinted sunglasses, today the mans choice in color for his trench coat was a deep green; Kakyuu took a deep breath and walked up to him, he quickly turned around to face her and gave her nod.
"What have you got for me today?" Kakyuu asked, the private investigator gave her sly grin and reached into his trench coat and pulled out a manila folder.
"Documents from your husband's phone company" He handed the folder to Kakyuu, her small hands took hold of it from each side looking at it with no emotion at all "They show hours and hours of calls to another office"
"Another office? business" Kakyuu said with a raised eyebrow.
"Considering how it looks one would think so, but it appears to be a facade" he added, Kakyuu felt a lump in her throat, her suspicion were going to be confirmed her and now, even though in her heart she already knew what he was going to say she wished at the same time that it was all just a mistake.
"Who was on the other end of the phone?" Kakyuu was intrigued now, not intrigued like when you read an exciting mystery novel but more in the likes of learning who the whore that was stealing her husband was.
"I'm sorry, I still do not know of the other womans identity" the PI replied, Kakyuu frowned "Her office phone is used by many so it is going to be near impossible-"
"Impossible!" Kakyuu shouted "Than what the hell am I paying you for!" she was loosing her patience and the Investigator knew it but being the professional that he was he decided to give no reaction and stood firm.
"Now now Mrs. Kou, did I not tell you that staying calm was relevant to my pursuing this case?" he began " Your health is a major concern to me, and if you continue to act this way I will be forced to abandon this job cut all contact with you" the Investigator finished, Kakyuu gritted her teeth and huffed in defeat, almost like a child.
'Dammit!" thought Kakyuu, she knew that if she lost this mans help that she would have an even tougher time at finding out all she needed to know, she had to learn to control her temper.
"So will you comply?" he asked Kakyuu, Kakyuu glared at him and then nodded, she knew that he was just trying to keep her and her unborn child safe but still.
"So what are your going to do since her identity is impossible to reveal?"
"Mrs. Kou, what I said was NEAR impossible, it only means that it is going to be a challenge" The PI explained "I will find out who she is just as soon as I figure out where your husband is going to meet her next"
At this Kakyuu gave him a wicked smile, now THAT was what she wanted to hear! with all that money going towards this investigation she simply had to know who this other woman was.
"So tell me whats next" Kakyuu asked him this time calmer.
"I'm going to bug his phone to get some clues" he said coolly.
"Can you do that?" said Kakyuu amazed.
"I have friends, I can do anything" was all he said.
Kakyuu smiled again, there we go.
If Seiya had known what Kakyuu was up to would he put a stop to it and admit or deny it? Seiya still did not know he was still caught with the excitement of hearing from his Usagi...but was she really his?
moments later the phone rang and Seiya calmly picked it up, putting up the pasade of a business call to avoid suspicion, a smile graced his lips as Usagi's voice began to speak, gosh he just loved that loving innocent voice! she was always soft when she spoke unlike his wife who tended to shout at him every other minute of the day.
It was a treat to be away from that terrible voice and be given a chance to hear a heavenly one to Seiya.
"Seiya-chan" Usagi tone was that of a happy one which made Seiya smile bigger, he felt a loving thump in his heart as she spoke "How is your day going?" she asked he could tell the she was smiling on the other end.
"Good so far, how is yours?" Said Seiya
"Fine, but I wish you were here" Usagi smiled on her end of the phone, a dreamy smile, a smile that would make a single women looking for love swoon with envy.
"We'll see each other soon Odango" Seiya reassured with sweet tone, she was special to him as she was to him, Seiya hoped he'd never lose her.
"I know" Usagi paused "I just can't wait though"she sighed dreamingly her bosom raised slightly, she was on cloud nine and she did not want to jump off just yet.
"Me either" he closed his eyes and imagined her loving face, he could not wait to see it again, to lay a kiss on her rosy pink lips.
"I've got to go Seiya, my boss is going to be coming in soon" Usagi suddenly added by the sound of her voice she sounded disappointed, Seiya looked at his watch and frowned it was almost ten thirty Usagi's boss always came in at that time, sadly.
"Okay Odango, I'll call you when you get off work" Seiya finally replied.
"Meet me at the Cafe' Seiya" Usagi blurted out all of a sudden, Seiya nearly dropped the phone, the cafe was where they often met for their nights together, could they honestly pull it off today? tomorrow was Tuesday her husband Mamoru did not work on Tuesday's.
"Odango we cant!" Seiya was beginning to fret "Mamoru will be home all day tomorrow what if you get caught!"
"I don't care Seiya I want to see you!" Usagi said urgently "If you can face her I can face Mamoru" she bit her lip, she was not sure if she was ready to face Mamoru after her nights with Seiya, but she did not care at this point, she wanted Seiya.
"Odango..." Seiya paused he was dumbfounded by her sudden bravery and impressed at the same time "okay, I'll meet you at the cafe"
"You promise?"
"I promise, cross my heart Odango I wouldn't miss seeing you for the world" Seiya closed his eye's, there was a yearning in his voice and Usagi realized this, she was grateful though this meant he actually cared for her.
"I love you" She whispered into the phone.
"I love you too" said Seiya and the two reluctantly hung up.
"Aw that was so sweet!" Seiya looked up, it was Reimi an associate "Your wife?" She added, Seiya paused he did not no what to say, he then smiled and looked up.
"Yes, my very beautiful and caring wife" he blushed.
If only she were his wife, what a life that would be...
