Chapter 4

Scarlet fluttered her eyes open, the intense pain on her face and leg quickly overwhelmed her as she whimpered softly and not to mention the small headache she had now. She looked around noticing that Momomi was nowhere in sight of the room, did she oversleep and wake up really late. Just as she was about to stand up the door opened up and Momomi walked through it holding a small palm sized ice pack.

-"Here."- she placed something on Scarlet's cheek as she recoiled a bit noticing it was an ice bag, Scarlet held it in place on her bruised cheek.

-"How's your leg?"-

"I don't know, I haven't checked."-

-"Let me see."- she helped Scarlet pull her pants down, and the sight on her leg horrified Momomi, it was a huge dark purple bruise on her thigh the size of a basket ball.

-"Oh my god…"-

Scarlet took a glance at it though her reaction to it was very calm, "It looks the same as when this first happened to me…though it was probably a lot bigger."

-"That bitch…"- Momomi whispered under breath, cursing that girl that caused this to her.

-"Does it hurt?"- Momomi glided her fingers across the bruise not wanting to put pressure on it.

"Only when I move it."

The door swung open and Amara came inside holding a glass of water and something enclosed in her fist.

-"Here you go Scarlet."- she handed the pills to Scarlet, -"These outta help with the pain."- Scarlet downed the pills quickly.

Amara eyes were drawn to the disgusting bruise on Scarlet's leg, -"Oh my, Scarlet are you okay?"-

-"Yes thank you."-

-"Carly get dressed."-

"For what?"

-"I'm taking you to the hospital to get your leg checked out."-

"But its fine—"

-"Carly don't argue with me."- she gave her a little peck on the lips then helped Scarlet get dressed. Scarlet dressed up in simple jeans and a sky blue sweater while Momomi wore a cute skirt with stockings, a blouse and a jacket.

Momomi held onto Scarlet as she hopped on one foot to their car, once inside Momomi set the car in motion and headed to the hospital. While driving Scarlet looked herself over the mirror seeing her right cheek a bit swollen while her other was just fine, Momomi caught a glance at her and her heart sank.

-"Carly do you want to head back to London?"-

"What? So soon?"

-"After what's happened—"

"Baby its okay, I've been having lots of fun here with you and getting to know your parents."

-"Really?"-

"Yeah its been great, and seeing my incredibly sexy girlfriend beating the living daylights out of my enemies…what more could I want." She giggled.

Momomi smiled as she reached for Scarlet's hand, -"You're really something you know that."-

Scarlet kissed Momomi's hand, "Thank you for saving me."

-"I'm never letting anything happen to you again."-

Once in the hospital the two girls were directed to a room to wait for a doctor to come and check Scarlet's leg so they had a good amount of time to kill.

They sat in the room for a good twenty minutes waiting for a doctor while they talked about small stuff and passed the time.

The door opened up, -"Ohayo Gozamasu."- The doctor walked inside and she placed a couple of things on the table.

-"Ms. Ashfield,"- she looked over the clipboard, -"What seems to be the problem."- though she looked at Scarlet's tender face covered in brusies.

-"Goodness,"- she looked over her face, -"What happened?"-

-"Long story,"- Scarlet said, -"But that's not what hurts, it's actually my leg."-

-"Your leg? Let me see."-

Scarlet felt a little hesitant to remove her pants but she did so, just enough to show the doctor her bruised leg.

-"Oh my goodness, what happened?"- The doctor crouched down and examined her leg.

-"A girl hit her with a rock on her leg."- Momomi added, -"And her leg was already in bad shape."-

-"What do you mean?"- The doctor asked and Scarlet quickly explained what happened to her leg and with that information the doctor retrieved a medical log from the hospital in London and brought Scarlet to another room where they took an X-ray of her leg.

A few minutes turned into an hour when the doctor came back, -"Well Ms. Ashfield the muscles on your leg are torn in a few different places, we had no idea how fragile those muscles were. Now we can we do some surgery or we can prescribe some painkillers for you and wait to see if it heals on its own if not we'll perform surgery.

Scarlet looked at Momomi with a smirk that said 'I told you so', -"I'll take the painkillers."-

-"Okay, I'll also write down a few ointments to use on your leg."-

-"I'll be right back."-

Scarlet pulled Momomi to her while she swayed side to side as she held her, "I tooold you." She giggled.

-"Okay okay you were right, but I just wanted to make sure you were fine."-

"I will be, its not like this is the first time I've gone through this before."-

-"I was hoping you'd never had to."-

"Hey crap happens…as you say of course not exactly in those words." She smiled.

-"I still want that girl to pay for what she did."-

"Baby its okay, she wont even try to look for me." She rubbed Momomi's arm gently to calm her down.

-"How can you be so forgiving?"- Her tone slightly raised, hinting to Scarlet that she was annoyed.

"I didn't say I did, I hate them with everything I have but what happened is in the past, time to move on, nothing I can do about it now."

-"I…suppose you're right."-

"If it makes you feel better I got her real good on her nose, I think I might have broken it."-

Momomi laughed, -"That explains why her nose was bleeding."- she held her hand.

"Oh yeah and in case you're wondering yes, it did feel awesome till…they cheated, I could've taken them all on." Scarlet boasted.

-"I'm sure you could."- Momomi continued to laugh.

"Don't laugh, I'm stronger then I look." Scarlet placed her hands on her hips.

-"Sure you do."- She then gripped Scarlet's chin with two fingers, -"But are you strong enough to handle me?"- she whispered seductively.

"Oh I'm strong enough." Momomi kept inching closer to her lips then at the last moment pulled away.

-"Well in that case…"-

"Oh so we're going to play this little game are we?" Scarlet crossed her arms with a sly grin, "If I recall you lost when you tried to do this last time."

-"Ha, just a moment of weakness."-

"Really?" In one motion Scarlet grabbed Momomi by her waist spun her around to face her. Her hands went up her blouse feeling Momomi's soft silky skin, she pressed her lips by her neck softly gliding her lips in a way as if she was going to kiss her but didn't, she moved up towards her chin, her cheeks, Momomi would be lying if she said this wasn't turning her on and Scarlet had a way to make her want her badly no matter how hard she resisted, she never knew her amazing vixen had such an ability.

Scarlet hovered her lips near Momomi's and Scarlet grinned, she had Momomi right where she wanted her and in that last second she playfully pushed Momomi away.

"Well we should definitely go get the pills and ointments." She stood up and hopped towards the door leaving Momomi completely stunned.

-"What?"- she slowed her breathing and looked at Scarlet.

"Come on silly."

-"Oh no you don't!"- she grabbed Scarlet and pressed her lips on hers locked in a lustful kiss.

They slowly broke off the kiss, she stared into Scarlet's sky blue eyes, "I win." She softly said with a smirk.

-"shut up."- She smiled back at her and resumed their kissing. Though their kissing had to be cut short since they didn't want to raise anyone's attention so they left the room, grabbed the medication and ointments began to leave the hospital.

-"Scarlet-chan?"-

Scarlet turned around, "Oh my god Chikaru!" the two girls excitedly hugged each other, "I haven't seen you in like forever!"

-"I know right! I've missed you."- Scarlet looked her over seeing her dressed in blue scrubs.

"So you're a nurse?"

Chikaru giggled, -"Oh no, I'm here taking a few classes and learning about all sorts of things."-

"You want to be a doctor?"

-"Oh yes another thing I've always wanted to do but theres just soo much I want to do."-

-"Don't even get her started."- Shion stepped inside the hospital entrance, -"She's going to burn herself out."- she giggled then handed Chikaru a cup of coffee.

-"I'm not going to burn myself out Shion."-

"Shion haven't seen you in a while either" Scarlet embraced Shion.

Though the two noticed Momomi standing behind Scarlet, -"Momomi."-

-"Tomori."-

Scarlet could see a bit of tension between the two and stepped between them, "Momomi." She looked at Scarlet and sighed.

-"Gomen,"- she looked at Shion, -"It's been awhile Tomori."-

-"That it has."- The two talked to each other while Chikaru and Scarlet conversed.

-"So what brings you here Scarlet-chan?"-

"Well…" she pointed to her bruised face.

-"Oh my god! How did I not see that, gomennasai Scarlet-chan. What happened?"- she hugged Scarlet, Shion took notice and Momomi filled the two of them over what happened.

-"I cant believe they did that to you Scarlet-chan. The world is filled with jerks."- Chikaru hugged Scarlet, -"Is your leg okay?"-

"For now but I mean I'm having a hard time walking."

Momomi walked to her side to hold her, "But I'm lucky to have you near me." She kissed Momomi making Chikaru giggle.

-"And I'm not leaving you not even for a second."- Momomi kissed her again.

Shion cleared her throat, -"So um what brings you two here, I thought you were living in London."-

"We are but I came to meet Momomi's parents."

-"My parents insisted."-

-"Ooh it must be nerve wrecking."-

"Oh my god it was, but her parents were very awesome."

-"That's great Scarlet-chan. By the way we should really hang out sometime and have some fun."-

"We really should, what do you think Momomi?"

-"Whatever I don't mind."-

"Well that's settled, how about tomorrow?"

-"That sounds great, you two should come to our house."- Chikaru wrote down on a slip of paper her address and handed it to Scarlet.

The four of them chatted for a while till they finally parted ways since Shion had came to pick up Chikaru for lunch because she wasn't done with her class, so Momomi and Scarlet with a farewell hug headed back home.

They drove silently, picking up some food to eat back home. Neither one said a word till Momomi suggested that Scarlet take the pills the doctor gave her which she did without hesitation.

"Hey Momomi?"

-"Yeah?"-

"Are you mad?"

-"What? No I'm not."-

"It's just…you look mad?"

-"Just a lot of things on my mind, but I'm not mad."-

"Hey if you don't want to hang out with them its okay."

-"It's not that, I don't mind that."-

"Is it the girls that did this to me?"

-"Well part of it but no."-

"Then?"

-"It's just…"-

"Hey you can tell me."

-"I've never really hung out with anyone besides you and Eleanor, this is kind of strange to me."-

"Really, not even back at School?"

-"I wasn't the most liked at Spica. Sure I was popular but most didn't like me."-

"Look you're going to have a good time trust me."

-"Alright, I'll give it a shot."- They arrived back at Momomi's gigantic home and helped her beautiful crimson haired vixen climb up the steps and go inside their room and sat her on the fluffy bed.

-"First thing's first, lets get these pants off."-

"Gezz baby already?" she grinned.

-"Not for that perv, though…that's not a bad idea."-

Scarlet laughed, "Goodness you're gonna wear me out."-

Momomi smiled and grabbed the ointment, then helped Scarlet remove her jeans, -"This is gonna be a bit cold."- she slowly began to rub the cold cream all over her bruise making Scarlet squirm from the cold sensation.

-"How's it feel?"-

"It kinda stings."

-"Guess this thing is working then."- Momomi began to bandage it up then helped her vixen slip into more comfortable pants to lay on the bed.

Scarlet laid back deeply breathing as she was completely relaxed as Momomi very gently rubbed her bruised leg helping the ointment take effect.

-"I'm not hurting you am i?"-

Scarlet softly moaned, "Oh god no, this feels great."

-"I'm glad."- Momomi slowly began to crawl towards Scarlet, -"You know I always be there for you right."-

"Of course I know Momomi and just like I would."

-"Carly, I love you."- The two locked lips as the sunlight began to pour inside Momomi's room lighting it up romantically and it gave the two just the right moment for a passionate afternoon for the two to make love and Momomi couldn't be happier as she held onto the girl that truly understood her and loved her with all her heart.
