CHAPTER 4

"Ummm Yuzu can I talk to you alone for a minute?" Asuna avoided looking into Mei's eyes as she spoke. Mei could feel her anger about to boil over, but the sound of Yuzu's voice and the touch of her hand kept it at bay. Yuzu grabbed Mei's hand softly as she spoke "anything you need to discuss with me, you can say in front of Mei, I dont need to hide anything from my wife" Yuzu turned to Mei and gave her a quick wink. Asuna still held her gaze on Yuzu as she spoke "very well then. I was wandering, no, I was hoping that it would be ok for me to stay the night tonight. As you know I just moved here and the landlord for the apartment i got was meant to drop the keys off but he hasn't yet." Mei was about to say something but Yuzu took the words right out of her mouth. "Cant you just stay at a hotel for the night?" Yuzu stared straight back at Asuna. Asuna couldn't help but see a small smile on Meis face but the answer she gave stole that smile immediately. "Well yes I did try that first, but all the Hotels in the city are booked out, probably part of the reason is because of the Conference we have tomorrow as well." Mei felt Yuzu squeeze her hand before she spoke. "o.k I understand, could you give us a minute please?" Asuna nodded as Yuzu gently closed the door, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath before opening her eyes again only to be met with soft violet ones. "We cant just leave her on the street,right?" Yuzu slowly rubbed the side of Mei's cheek as she waited for Mei to say something. "Mei, please say something" Mei then placed her hand on top of Yuzu's. "No we ca-" Yuzu quickly cut Mei off "I know! I will ask Harumin if she will let her stay there for the night" Mei shook her head as Yuzu looked at her confused "No Yuzu, I mean yes you could. But that would mean more time of us being apart, and I just got you home." Yuzu wrapped her arms around Mei and pulled her in close for a hug "So?" Mei gave a small sigh as she circled her arms around Yuzu's neck and squeezed her tightly "So, I guess we shouldn't leave our guest outside any longer it is getting cold and it's late" Yuzu pulled back and slowly kissed Mei, "mmmm…ahhhh" Mei moaned as Yuzu easily inserted her tongue to explore Mei's mouth, Mei then returned the kiss with even more passion. Both didn't want to but had to pull away due to the lack of air and they did still have Asuna waiting for an answer outside. "We will defiantly continue this later my love" Mei spoke seductively as she kissed Yuzu's cheek. Yuzu grinned as she lent over and gave Mei's ear a quick lick and said " we most certainly will wifey"

Yuzu then grabbed the door handle, she gave Mei one last look which Mei just nodded. Yuzu opened the door and welcomed Asuna in "Please come in" Asuna bowed to both Yuzu and Mei as she walked into the apartment. Yuzu looked behind Asuna then gave a confused look, Asuna noticed and spoke up first "All of my belongings were meant to be delivered today as well, but it looks like they have been delayed too." Yuzu quickly gave her a smile "thats ok, Ill lend you some clothes for tonight" Yuzu left the room to get the clothes for her. Mei and Asuna stood in an awkward silence, Mei couldn't help but feel a bit insecure as she looked at the Executive Fashion Designer. She was wearing tight faded blue skinny jeans with a slimming designer top and had a brown leather jacket throne on the side of her shoulder. Her make-up was flawless and Mei could tell that she was wearing all the latest accessories as she had seen them from time to time when Yuzu would read through her fashion magazines. Mei could swear that this woman could be a model if she chose to, she was eye level with Mei, long wavy dark brown hair that fell below her but t. Both women quickly locked eyes and Mei couldn't help but notice her eyes she had never seen anything like them before. They were almost grey with a tinge of light blue and yellow. Both women snapped their heads back to the hallway as Yuzu appeared "here you go, we dont have a spare room but I'll make the couch up for you" Asuna gave Yuzu a hug which lasted a bit longer then Mei would have liked. "How about we have dinner first then you can have a bath" Yuzu smiled at both women as she made her way to the kitchen.

Yuzu could feel the tension between the 2, she didn't want Mei to feel insecure, but she also couldn't just leave someone that needed help. "You have a lovely home" Asuna spoke quietly. Yuzu nudged Mei gently with her elbow, Mei sighed lightly as she spoke "Thank you Asuna-san"

After dinner and cleaning up all three women were ready to retire for sleep "ahh well goodnight Asuna" Yuzu gave her a quick smile as she followed Mei into their bedroom.

Once they were in bed Yuzu went to hug Mei but she moved away. "Mei?" Yuzu moved closer to Mei which only made Mei move right to the edge of the bed. Yuzu placed a hand on Mei's shoulder as she pulled her to turn around, Yuzu was immediately met with watery violets "Before you ask, I dont know why but the tears keep falling" Yuzu wrapped her arms around Mei and gently caressed her head. "Mei you dont ever have to feel sad, you know im always here for you" Mei nuzzled into Yuzu's chest as she spoke "I hate feeling like this Yuzu" Yuzu pulled back as she looked into Mei's eyes, Mei is the most important person to her and she wanted Mei to feel that. "Mei, I love you, what do I have to do for you to believe that?" Mei looked up at Yuzu as she spoke "You said you also loved her at one point as well" Yuzu could see the sadness in Meis eyes, she pulled Mei in closer and held her tight as she spoke "But I love you more" Yuzu kissed the top of Meis head as she held the younger girl with no intention of letting go "We have been through so much together, I know that we already talked about this last night but if you wan-" Mei quickly cut Yuzu off as she spoke softly "No, your not leaving your job because your wife is too insecure. I will get over it. I just need some time to adjust, thats all" Mei pulled away a little so that she could look into Yuzu's beautiful emerald eyes "So please just be a little patient and wait for me Yuzu" Yuzu quickly caught Mei's lips and soft but passionate kiss before she pulled back "always babe" Mei blushed instantly at the nickname that Yuzu loved to use almost as much as wifey. Mei was the one to catch Yuzu's lips this time, she then rolled her over and was straddling the older girl. Yuzu gave a quick yawn which caused Mei to raise a brow at her "You have had a big day you should sleep" Yuzu started to pout as she tried to hold Mei in place as she was trying to lay back down next to Yuzu "But you promised" Yuzu tried to give her most saddened expression, Mei lent down and gave Yuzu a slow kiss full with all her love for her wife. "Yes I did, but you have a really busy day tomorrow" Mei then lay down next to Yuzu as she spoke again "Plus I promise i will make it worth the wait" Mei gave Yuzu a teasing smile. In their relationship Yuzu always thought that she was the perverted one, but as the years went on it was obvious the Mei was the one with a very kinky mind, the thought of what Mei will do to her made Yuzu blush uncontrollably.

Yuzu then opened her arms and Mei quickly lay her head on Yuzu's chest and wrapped her arms and legs over her, their bodies were tangled, Mei could hear the steady heart beat coming from Yuzu's chest and it reminded her how Yuzu said her heart only beats for her. With that Mei fell asleep.

The next morning Mei woke up to the smell of something delicious, she opened her eyes as and started to replay last night in her head. She went to get out of bed when an arm wrapped around her and pulled her back down "5 more minutes Babe" Yuzu held Mei tight against her body. Mei giggled a little at Yuzu's gesture and melted into the embrace. After a few minutes Meis eyes shot opened as she realised the reason she was awake was because the smell of food woke her up. "Yuzu the food will burn if we don't get up now" Yuzu stirred a little before speaking quietly "But I haven't even started breakfast yet" Yuzu's eyes then shot open as well as she realised that both her and Mei were still in bed but the smell of food was coming from the kitchen. Both young women got out of bed as Yuzu spoke "Asuna is probably cooking something" Mei let out a sigh as she spoke back "She should have proper manners and ask before using someone else's kitchen" Yuzu gave Mei a nervous smile as they both made their way out to the kitchen.

Both of their jaws dropped when they made it to the kitchen, the table was already set and was covered in mouth watering food from pancakes, french toast, bacon, eggs, sausages, fresh fruit and coffee. "Good morning" Asuna came around from the kitchen as she placed freshly made egg omelette on the table "G..good morning Asuna" Yuzu quickly took a seat, she then turned and looked at Mei. "Good morning" Mei slowly walked over and took a seat next to Yuzu as she spoke again "Did you cook all of this?" Asuna nodded, Yuzu cut in before she could answer "Asuna is a great cook, it smells delicious" Yuzu was quickly filling up her plate with a bit of everything as she smiled widely. "I see" was all that Mei responded with. Asuna then took a seat and began filling her plate as well as she spoke "Well I cant take all the credit, Yuzu taught me 90% of what I know when it comes to cooking. Plus I wanted to do something as a thank you for letting me stay here last night" Mei then looked between Yuzu and Asuna. "Yummm this is delicious" Yuzu spoke happily. Mei didn't want to admit it but it was delicious she couldn't fault any of it. "I know thats your favourite, i thought you might like it" Asuna gave Yuzu a sweet smile, Mei could feel herself losing control of her emotions. I mean, is there anything this woman couldn't do? Mei started to question herself again, she wasn't a good cook at all, even though over the years Yuzu had attempted to teach her. She could still only cook the basics. Then the fact that at the start of their relationship she was awful to Yuzu, then she just threw her aside when the arranged marriage came up. Mei was quickly brought out of her thoughts as Yuzu was now facing her with some food in between chopsticks "here babe try this" Mei took the bite and instantly her taste buds exploded. "Its good right?" Yuzu sat there with a happy expression, waiting for Mei to answer. "yes it is" Mei looked over to Asuna, she knew that this woman still loved Yuzu, she could see it in her eyes, the longing for someone. Mei looked over to Yuzu's left hand and smiled as she saw the wedding ring she had picked for her shinning brightly on her finger.

After the delicious breakfast all women got ready for work and started to make there way out the door. "So I dont know what time I will be home, but I will message you o.k?" Yuzu lent over and gave Mei a quick but soft kiss on the lips. Mei smiled, Yuzu was never ashamed to show her affections in front of people "o.k, I love you" Mei noticed how Asuna avoided looking in their direction.

Meis day seemed to have gone really slow, she had 5 meetings to attend, stocks to go over and interviewing new teachers for the school. She made her way home, as she opened the door to her and Yuzu's apartment she noticed it was still in complete darkness "Another late one" Mei said out loud as she looked at her phone. The last message she had received from Yuzu was at 1pm, saying that she was super busy and wasn't sure what time she would be home. Mei had a bath and quickly cooked a simple dinner. After putting some on a plate for Yuzu Mei decided to retired to bed. She looked at her phone one more time 10pm "Really, could the conference be going this late?" Mei said to herself as she brought up Yuzu's number and was contemplating whether to call her or not.

Mei hit the dial button and waited for Yuzu to answer. "Hello" Yuzu answered over cheerfully, Mei could hear music in the back ground and people talking and laughing "Yuzu? where are you?" Mei was trying not to sound annoyed but the answer that the blonde gave sent her anger over the top. "Hello Wifey, I…m.. miss you" Mei could tell by the way Yuzu was talking/slurring that she was drunk. "Yuzuko are you drinking again!? where are you?" Mei then heard Asuna in the background "ohhhhhh you got called Yuzuko, I think someone is in trouble" Mei bit her bottom lip, she was about to speak again when the sound of Yuzu's voice came through the line. "S…sorry Mei, we finished the conference a little bit ago and A..Asuna's stuff arrived for her a…apartment, so a few of u…us came to leaned her a hand" Mei didn't like this one bit, she felt like this woman still had some kind of control over Yuzu, her Yuzu. With her anger way past boiling point Mei let it get the better of her as she cut the blonde off while she was still talking "Mei, dont worry i've only had a couple of drinks and i wil-"

"Dont bother coming home!" Mei hung up, tears were streaming down her face, her phone instantly rung, she didn't need to look, she knew it was Yuzu. She turned her phone off and cried herself to sleep.
