Role Reversal

Chapter 4

Haruka groaned softly when the light from the open window hit her eyes. She rolled over, facing Michiru, to try to block out the light. Her eyes shot open just as quickly as she closed them. She sat up and glanced down at the sleeping form of the woman she had made her lover.

It took her a moment to realize what had happened the night before. She ran her fingers through her tangled hair as she crawled out of bed to get dressed. As much as she wanted to stay, she knew she couldn't. Her eyes traveled to the clock on the nightstand, she was due for her hormone injection in less than two hours.

The shirt and bra she wore the night before were in the living room where they were discarded. She rummaged through a drawer of the desk that was on the far wall. Soon she found what she was looking for. She pulled a pen from the cup and scribbled a short letter. It was a simple 'thank you' for a wonderful evening. At the bottom, she didn't hesitate to attach her phone number.

She took one last look in at Michiru before leaving the house.


"You were where?" Makoto nearly spit out her tea at Haruka's statement.

She had answered Makoto's call once she arrived home. She agreed to meet Makoto and Ami for a late lunch. "You mean you didn't notice that I left with her?"

"Was it worth it?" Ami asked calmly.

Haruka blushed. "Yea...it was nice." She took a small sip of her water.

"How did she react...you know..." Makoto lowered her voice. "when she...saw it?"

The blonde burst into laughter but quickly covered her mouth when other cafe patrons began looking at her. "How was she suppose to react? She knew it was there before she even saw it."

"Well, I thought she was gay?" Makoto continued.

Haruka grinned as their meals were delivered to them. She waited until the waitress vanished before she spoke softly. "Everybody has a straight tendency. I've seen the toy you two use."

Ami flushed a deep red and attempted to hide behind her glass of water. "How do you know about that?"

"I saw it when you let me borrow a bra that day mine was soaked from the rain. Shouldn't use the top drawer to hide them." She took a bite of her salad.

"But yours is real, there's a big difference there Haruka."

"She didn't seem to mind."

"What about you though? How were you with it?"

Again Haruka blushed. "At first I was a little apprehensive, but she helped me relax. It didn't last long. I'm a bit embarrassed by that." She sipped her water again.

"Biggest question of them all Haruka..." Makoto leaned over the table. "Did you use a condom?" Ami nearly spit out her pasta at the question.

"I don't need to." The blonde said calmly. "I've been on my hormones for two years and I was last checked about five months ago. I'm sterile."

"Why were you checked for that?" The brunette was dumbfounded.

"It's a sure fire way of testing to see if the type of hormones she's using are still working." The blue haired med-student jumped in.


Michiru exited the shower. She wrapped a towel around her body as she re-entered her bedroom. She was a bit upset that Haruka had not stuck around. The actions of the night before made her feel dirty. Haruka probably thought it was just sex. Michiru did too. Now that she was awake she felt an urge to see the blonde again.

After pulling on a t-shirt and a pair of loose sweat pants. She ran her fingers through her hair as she walked into the kitchen to make coffee and something to eat. That's when she saw it. There was a piece of paper sitting on the counter. Paper that wasn't there before. She picked it up to read it. A smile grew on her face when she saw the elegantly written number at the bottom. Haruka did want to see her again. She was leaving it up to her to make the decision.

She waited until she had her first cup of coffee before slowly dialing the number on the paper.

"Your phone's ringing." Ami stated when a soft jingle emitted from Haruka's pocket.

"I feel it vibrating." She fished it from her pocket and frowned at the number, not recognizing it. "Hello?" She spoke as she answered it.

"Is this Haruka?"

"Yes it is." The blonde took a sip from her glass.

Michiru smiled when she heard the voice on the other end before continuing. "This is Michiru."

Haruka excused herself from the table and walked outside to finish the conversation.

"Wonder what that's all about?" Ami wiped the corners of her mouth then glanced out the window at her friend.

"Probably her girlfriend." Makoto smirked. "Look how much she's giggling and smiling. Michiru's probably saying how much she wants her c-" She stopped talking when Ami placed her hand over her mouth.

"Why don't you let her tell us, she's coming back in." Ami stated calmly.

"That was Michiru."

"Well we figured that by how much you were giggling." Makoto pointed out. "What did she want? Did she want your body again?"

"No. She invited me over for dinner on Friday." Haruka smiled.

"And probably a little naked dessert." The brunette winked at her dear friend.

"Behave." Ami smacked her shoulder.

"I need to get going. There are things I need to do at home." Haruka left money for her part of the bill before leaving.
