It had been a few days since the 'incident', as they called it, happened. Mariko had been avoiding Takahashi whenever he was home.
Takahashi had applied for a job as a homeroom teacher in the local senior high school. And he was accepted. Now he was much less at home and he had less time for Mariko. He didn't mind for the next few days, though. Things were going pretty awkward between them lately.
After a week of working at the school, Takahashi was invited to go to the pub with some of his colleagues. He called Mariko to tell her he would be home late, and she didn't seem to mind that at all.
"Hideaki-kun," one of his colleagues said, "have another one! It's weekend, so enjoy it already!"
Takahashi ended up drinking too much, so one of his colleagues had to bring him home. When he rang the door bell, a sleepy Mariko opened the door.
"Sorry to bother you at this hour," the man said. "This guy drank too much, so…"
"Oh… no problem," Mariko said. "Thank you for your trouble."
She supported Takahashi while walking towards his bedroom after she said goodbye to his colleague.
"Mariko-chan…" Takahashi mumbled.
"We're almost there," Mariko said. "Just keep walking for a little bit more, then you can sleep."
"Sorry to bother you again," Takahashi said. "I didn't mean to get drunk…"
"It's alright," Mariko said. "Here we are."
She lay him on his bed and took of his shoes and his jacket. She had a little trouble untying his tie. A big hand took hers.
"Thank you," Takahashi said. "That's enough."
Mariko looked at his hand and withdrew hers.
"I've been thinking," she said. "Maybe it wasn't a good idea for me to move in here in the first place…"
"Why?" Takahashi asked. His eyes were closed.
"I think you know why," Mariko said.
"No, I don't," Takahashi said.
"Please don't make me say it out loud," Mariko begged.
"Because you're in love with me?" Takahashi asked. Mariko didn't answer.
He opened his eyes and looked at her.
"That's it?" he asked. "You're planning to put yourself in danger, just because you think you're in love with your teacher?"
"'Think'?" Mariko repeated.
"You teenagers have no idea what love is really like," Takahashi said. He slowly stood up. "It's attitude like that that really pisses me off. You simply haven't got a clue."
He stood right in front of her. She could smell the alcohol.
"But I… I'm really…" Mariko said softly. She didn't look at him.
"Still convinced that you're in love?" Takahashi asked. He took her wrist and pulled her on the bed.
"Waah! Hey, what are you…?" Mariko said. She didn't move when she saw him hovering over her.
"I'll show you," Takahashi said. "I'll show you it's not real."
Before Mariko could say anything back, he kissed her forcefully. Mariko tried to push him away, but she couldn't.
For a second, it seemed like he was letting her go, but instead, he took both her hands with one hand and held them above her head.
"Let go, Sensei! You're hurting me!" Mariko yelled.
"What? You're in love with me, aren't you? Then you shouldn't mind if I do this," Takahashi said while pulling up her night dress and rubbing her breast with his free hand.
"No, n-no, stop it, plea—"
He kissed her again. Mariko turned her head.
"Sensei! Stop it, please!"
"Why? After all, this is what you really wanted, right?"
"No, this is…"
Takahashi took off his tie and unbuttoned his shirt while still holding her arms with one hand. A smirk appeared on his face.
"Now, next is…" he said while reaching for her panties.
Mariko panicked.
"NO!! NO, DON'T!! PLEASE DON'T!!" she screamed. She closed her eyes. She was so embarrassed.
"Why are you fighting?" Takahashi asked. "Why aren't you enjoying this?"
Mariko didn't answer. She was crying.
"I'm not gonna stop until you give me an answer," Takahashi said. He started rubbing her breast again.
"NO!!" Mariko screamed. "I… I don't know! I don't want this! Please!"
Takahashi stopped. He let go of Mariko and looked at her. She was shaking heavily. She opened her eyes. She looked scared. Terrified. She was too afraid to move. Tears were flowing out of her eyes.
"See?" Takahashi said. "You're not really in love. Now will you stop saying nonsense about moving out?"
Mariko was too scared to say anything. She still didn't move. Takahashi couldn't help but look at her breasts again.
He slowly pulled her night dress back down and stood up.
I went too far.
"Go to bed," he said. "Forget about this."
How could she forget?
She obediently stood up, her face fire red and wet from tears and sweat, and ran for the door. When she closed it behind her, she dropped herself on her knees and cried.
Takahashi could hear her. The sound of sobbing combined with panting and the scared sounds she made, was painful.
I went way too far.

Yeah, this one's a bit short, but if I had attached the next chapter to this one, it would be too long. This way, it's easier to follow ^^
