The sunlight blinded her, Mimi grumbled and turned around, slowly opening her eyes just to shut them a second later as a painful headache hit her like a thunder bolt.
-What the hell..- she growled, her voice still raspy, head clutched in her hands on her pillow. She forced herself to open one eye and take a look at the alarm clock; it was already 10 AM and she missed school. Great.
Mimi reached for her cellphone on the bedside table, vaguely explaining her circumstances to a close classmate. She laid in bed for some other minutes, images of the night before suddenly popped in her mind, making her regret her decisions. Right, she drank way too much and played that stupid game.
She jumped out of the bed, working on her seemingly forgotten coordination skills, finding herself still in the same clothes as the previous night. They reeked of alcohol and smoke, Mimi wrinkled her nose in disgust. She felt filthy and sweaty, clearly she needed a shower.
She opened the door and stood there for a good 5 minutes at the picture in front of her. Quietly asleep on the couch, like he had no worries in the world, was Yamato Ishida.
And then it all came to her. She begged Yamato to stay over and, she recalled wit horror as she peeked through the crack of the door, acting like a drunk fool in front of him. So embarrassing!
As fast and quietly as she could, Mimi entered the bathroom and tossed her clothes on the floor, then hopped in the shower, wishing the water would let her forget whatever she did.
Yamato groaned and rubbed his eyes. He turned around, checking his surroundings. Oh right, he was at Mimi's. He sat up, his stomach growling loudly, wondering about his next move. Judging by the light outside, he figured he already missed school. Well, no big deal.
Mimi's door was still closed, maybe she was still out from the night before.. Flashing through his eyes images of Mimi laying half-asleep on her bed, after he dragged her there, as comfortable as she could be still fully clothed and drunk.
She looked at him with glassy doe eyes, through her long lashes, stretched an hand and dragged him down by his shirt making him lose balance and fall on top of her.
It wasn't long until she found his lips and kissed him.
The kiss was short but passionate, as she slipped her tongue in and wrapped her arms around him, just for a couple of minutes that seemed hours. Yamato didn't react at first, surprised as he was, but slowly reciprocated the kiss and was moving on to her neck when he noticed she fell asleep. Leaving him there, shocked, turned on and flat on her body.
Getting away was maybe the hardest thing he ever did in his life. Sleep didn't come easy after that, in fact he spent more than an hour wishing away his boner and by the time his eyes closed, it was already 4 AM.
He still felt sleepy, not that he managed to get much sleep considering the situation. Maybe he closed his eyes for more than a minute, because when he opened them he found Mimi, wrapped in a big towel, hair dripping wet, opening the door to her bedroom.
She stared at him for a second with wide eyes before gasping loudly -Ya-Yamato.. you're awake..- she managed to say, stumbling her words a little.
-Somehow- he mumbled, slowly sitting up and stretching his sore neck, he fell asleep in an awkward position and now he couldn't turn his head properly. The day was really getting better by the minute.
-Are you okay?- Mimi asked, still keeping her distance and looking at him oddly, a faint blush colored her cheeks. Before Yamato could answer, Mimi run off and came back holding something.
-Go take a shower, I know I desperately needed one- she reasoned -Here- she tossed him a white t-shirt and a big towel -You can wear this, I'm sure it'll fit you. There should also be a new toothbrush under the sink-
Yamato eyed her skeptically -Are you sure?- though he could surely use a shower.
-Yeah, just make sure to actually return this one - she remarked, making a point to sound annoyed.
-Ah-ah got it- he rolled his eyes and stood up, walking and stopping in front of her from a moment.
Neither of them in that moment tried anything, still feeling too awkward and sick from the night before, the embarrassed silence lasted only a few second though as Yamato made his way through the bathroom, before nodding a 'thank you' to her.
Mimi sighed, she didn't lose time and changed as fast as she could, wearing her hair up in a messy bun, a grey t-shirt with a California stamp on it from one of her trips, and black shorts. She made up her room as best as she could, tossed her clothes in the washer and took an aspirin for her raging headache. A growl in her stomach reminded her she needed to eat, unfortunately, she realized after a moment of searching through her cabinets, she didn't have much. She put out cereals and milk on the little table in the living room, waiting to hear from Yamato just in case he wanted some, and sat down, writing down her grocery list.
She was so engrossed in her task she didn't notice Yamato behind her, looking down at what she was writing with a smirk.
-I'm relieved you actually noticed the sorry state of your fridge- he joked, though he really was worried.
Mimi jumped back, surprised -What the hell, you scared me- she frowned, but one look at him made her silently gasp. He was so beautiful, with her white v-neck t-shirt on,his washed out jeans, a towel covering his head while little drops of water were falling from his hair to his face.
She tried to recompose herself and continue her task, coughing a little -Help yourself- pouting to the two bowls of cereals -I do actually need to eat to survive-
-And drink less- he eyed her, raising an eyebrow as to state the obvious.
Mimi almost choked on her spoon of milk and cereals.
-This is awful!- she took her head in her hands, refusing to even look at the beautiful tempting demon in front of her. How could he always be so calm?
-Don't worry, I've seen worst- he chuckled, then added -Though it was certainly .. -he looked for the right word - .. interesting..- he finished, delivering the final blow.
-Ahhhhh don't say anymore!- a furious blush covered her cheeks -And please never mention this to anyone. NEVER!-
-Don't you think the list is getting too long?- he gave her a meaningful look.
Mimi lowered her gaze again and bit her lower lip nervously, she knew what he meant.. all their encounters, kissing, the secrets were dangerously adding up.
-Why, do you want to tell the others? And tell them what, exactly?-
Yamato was taken back for a moment and scratched his neck -Beats me- he looked up at the white ceiling as if it had all the answers he was looking for. -Whatever we're doing it's not their business-
-Then shut up- Mimi retorted, pissed off he would bring that up, she had enough on her plate without thinking of that.
-Then don't jump me- he added, a devious smile appearing on his face again.
-Wha-who..?!- Mimi gasped, before remembering the full extent of what she did the previous night. She really did jump him!
-Did it come back to you?- he smirked, looking at her -I kinda feel violated- he dramatically crossed his arms to protect his body.
Mimi couldn't even laugh -I'm seriously losing my mind- she messed up her hair, her face contorted in embarrassment and confusion -You're making me lose my mind-
Yamato flashed a smile, a real one, it was such a rare event that it took Mimi's breath away for a moment -I'm afraid I can't do much about that- he got closer to her, taking a strand of her half-dry wavy hair between his fingers and playing with it.
She could feel the heat of his skin, his blu eyes on her, and the smell of her own bodywash and shampoo mixed with his own natural scent. She couldn't stop herself and placed her nose on his neck, sniffing him and then smiling -You smell like strawberries-
He snorted, repressing a shiver of pleasure -You too-
Sparkles flew as Yamato and Mimi briefly looked at each other, silently agreeing on what was about to happen, their chemistry undeniable.
They were already past the point of simple friendship now, Mimi also made that decision when he gave her the chance to stop whatever they were doing, that time in school. The little restraint they had left flew out of the window when their lips met again, their arms linked to each others bodies. They moved to the couch, as the chairs were too difficult to move in, just exchanging looks and not words, and kept making out shamelessly.
Yamato was hard and Mimi felt it when she straddled him, rubbing her body against his to cause some friction. The blonde gasped at the contact, moving his hand under her shirt and starting to feel her curves. When he couldn't take it anymore, Yamato took off her shirt, her hair-bun coming undone at the same time.
-Mimi..- he could only say before taking her lips again, going down to her neck where he focused as he started sucking it, while feeling her perfect breasts with his hands.
Mimi was taken aback and grinded even harder against him, suppressing a moan from escaping her lips, pushing her nails deep into his back.
With a sudden movement he reverted their position, pushing Mimi's back on the couch and standing on top of her. They were both panting, a little red in the face, with messed up hair and lusting eyes.
-Is this okay?- he asked, stopping suddenly and looking at her in the eyes.
-I want this- Mimi said, her voice a little raspy from desire as she took off his shirt.
No more words were necessary at that point..
