Shizuru's POV.
I can see the sunlight rising thru the window, feeling its warmth in my body as I lay there next to you. Drawing closer to you, I can feel you're breath hitting my neck. I'd say I'm very content as I embrace you in your sleep.
"Good morning" Nao murmurs.
"Good morning, did I wake you?" I smiled at her.
"No" She looks at me with loving eyes "Did ya have a good night sleep"
"Like a rock" I replied, and she giggled.
"I'll go make us some coffee" She kissed my cheek and continued to get up.
I couldn't help but redden by her sudden action, I just lay there speechless. I'm watching her as she gets away from the bed, totally naked and as if it's the most natural thing in the world.
"Close your mouth, don't want any fly's in your mouth" Nao teased me.
"Ha ha, Funny girl" I stick my tongue at her.
I lost sight of her once she left the room, feeling more relaxed now I took this chance to look around her room, sense last night I didn't have the opportunity. The room itself was nice, not big but not small, somewhat plain but still looks alright. The color of the room was white, queen size bed, two nightstands on each side, a closet and a desk with some papers. In general she had nothing out of the ordinary.
"What's this?" I ask to myself as I noticed in the nightstand a picture frame with two people on it, I take it in my hands to have better look.
"That would be my mother and I" said Nao, as she comes closer to me with the two cups of coffee.
"You startled me Nao" I sighed.
"I'm sorry Shiz, here" Nao hands me the cup while sitting in the bed next to me.
I inhale the smell of the coffee and took a small sip, enjoying the flavor.
"It's very tasty" I gave her a sweet kiss in the cheek, gaining a red Nao "Thank you"
"Y-yeah, you're welcome" She look everywhere except at me. I could get used to this.
I then put my attention back to the picture.
"You're mother is really pretty Nao"
"Yeah, she is…" Her face seems distant all of a sudden "She is in the hospital"
"What happened?" I feel like nosy for asking but I am curios.
"If you kiss me in the lips I will tell you" Nao's giving me a sexy look, how cute!
"Deal"
I came closer to her and kiss her softly; she responded the kiss in the same manner.
"Hehe niceeee, another one please!" Nao tried to get another kiss but I slightly pushed her away.
"Now, that was not the deal we made" I stated firmly yet playfully.
"Okay okay" She gave up "My mother was brutally harmed by the man that is my father" Nao continued the story sadly "She found out he was cheating on her, and he lost it. Decided that it was easier to solve the problem with violence" Nao sighed with teary eyes.
"I'm sorry to hear that Nao, I shouldn't have asked" I feel terrible for making her tell me.
"It's alright Shizuru, he is in jail now. And even if my mother is still hospitalized I know she will make it thru" Said Nao trying to make me feel better.
"She must be a very strong woman" I smiled at her
"Oh the hell she is!" She grinned "SHE is my mother after all!"
I left my coffee cup in the nightstand and hug Nao tightly, she is an incredible girl.
"I admire you Nao, you're so strong and beautiful" I honestly tell her.
"Shut up and kiss me, you idiot!" Nao is blushing hard and took my head with both of her hands and kissed me hard on the lips.
Our make out session lasted a good half an hour …or more? Anyway it was time to head back home. We both got dressed and ready to do our daily shores.
"I'll be taking my leave then" I look at Nao one last time before opening the door and leave.
"Be careful on your way" Smiled Nao at me "Will I be seeing you soon?" She tilts her head to the side.
I taught of it just incredible adorable, I couldn't help but running back to her and giving her the last kiss of the day. She was surprised I can tell but she was also very happy.
"See you soon Nao" I said my last words before running out of her place.
I was now on my way home, I have to get on some papers done for work.
Nao has been really sweet, I know I feel something for her, I'm just not sure of what it is…or rather, I don't know if I'm ready for it yet. Still I smile to myself, remembering last night event and how happy I am that Nao went looking for me that night.
I am at my apartment, I put the key in and went inside my place, just as I was about to close the door a hand suddenly stops the door. I was scared until I saw a familiar face once the door was opened.
"Hey" It was Natsuki greeting me.
"Hello Natsuki" I replied.
Natsuki took her time eyeing me, as if trying to decipher something by looking at me.
"Where were you last night?" Natsuki asks me.
"Natsuki, I understand we are friends, but that doesn't mean I have to answer you that" I respond quite rude.
"You were with her, weren't you?" Natsuki was insisting with her questions.
"And what if I was?" I know I shouldn't be so rough with her, but I somehow can't help be mad at her.
"…" Natsuki is staring at me intensely, I hate it when she looks at me like that, because I can't help but feel my legs weak.
"I'm sorry Shizuru" Natsuki knows how to make me vulnerable "Shizuru, you slept with her"
"W-well I did, Nao only has one bed so we had to share" I tried to avoid the subject.
"Don't play stupid with me" Natsuki is losing her temper.
"Natsu-" I was cut off by her lips.
Natsuki pushed me inside the apartment and closed the door in the process. Honestly, I have a feeling that being pushed by people is becoming a regular thing in my life.
I tried to push her away from me but my efforts were in vane, even if Natsuki is slightly shorter than me, she is physically stronger than me and to be honest I could not try to really harm her.
"N-Natsuki please stop" So, if my actions don't work, I will use words.
"I don't want to stop" Natsuki kept kissing me, with that delicious mouth of hers.
This can't continue! I closed my eyes.
"STOP IT NATSUKI!" I screamed, really hard.
Natsuki stopped her actions.
"What's wrong Shizuru? Am I not enough for you now?" Natsuki is being unfair with me.
"Natsuki, you're with the one you love now, why even try something with me?!" I ask Natsuki, tears streaming out my face.
"Shizuru, without you, my life is meaningless… I noticed when I started to feel you distant" Natsuki looks sad "I broke up with her…because I can't stop thinking about you" Natsuki graved me by the arms and looked at me.
This can't be true. I'm listening to the words that so many times I have fantasize of her telling me, but I can't stop thinking about Nao. This is not fair for her, not after confessing me her feelings!
"Natsuki, you're too late…" I now found the floor very interesting
"Do you love her?" Natsuki took my chin softly and elevated my face so that I would see her "Shizuru, look at me and be honest"
If I'm not careful I can lose myself in those eyes…
"I…I don't know If I love her" I am being truthful.
"Do you love me?" Natsuki kept her eyes open, not once blinking.
"Natsuki, I don't know anymore… It has been…really hard trying to forget you" I can't look straight at her.
"I understand" Natsuki let go of me "If you don't know which one of us you love, I will make you fall for me again. I'll try my best because…" Natsuki started to walk to the door and opened it, taking one last glance at me before leaving and smiling "I love you"
My world twisted and turned, I didn't know what to think. I drop to the floor on my knees. Yes, I Shizuru Fujino, am in a horrible situation in which I don't know what to do. At the moment, hearing Natuski saying me she loved me, made my old me the happiest person in the whole planet, but the me now, can't think the same way.
"Why?" My tears were falling silently while my mouth was slightly open.
Why can't I be happy about this? Is it because of Nao, is it because I'm afraid she would hate me if I decided to be with Natsuki. Is it because losing our friendship scared me? Or maybe… is it because I might really have those feelings towards her?
My eyes opened widely, realizing that I might be inside a love triangle. And this time it was my turn to choose.
I got up and smacked my face.
"I have to put my act together Shizuru" I went to the bathroom to clean myself and prepare myself to finish my work "I have to distract myself"
After finishing my work, I decided to call Reito. A friend could be very useful right now.
I took the phone and dial his number. After a few seconds he answers.
"Well hello my dear, may I ask the reason of your phone call. Sense you've got yourself a new friend you have forgotten me" he faked a sob.
"I'm sorry Reito, no jokes right now, I really, really need you to come" My voice sounds so needy and I hate that.
"Oh my, this seams important, I'm on my way" Reito said before hanging up.
"Ara… Reito I hope you can help me" I said to myself.
