Rain poured into the school week.

Monday morning, Natsumi, walked dazed under her umbrella. Her mind had stayed in that moment just days before. Of his lips on hers. She blushed as she gripped the umbrella tight and fought to keep her feet going forward. The urge to run home and cuddle her new friend, Koto, the white kitten from that night.

Coming to the school gates, she stopped just outside of them and took a deep breath. Her eyes scanned the area around her hoping to spot Mokoto. She spotted the familiar patch of dark blue hair and walked up to him noticing him alone.

"Um..Haruka-san...have you seen Makoto?" She asked as she caught the boys dull gaze. Haruka rolled his eyes as he tried to pass the girl.

"Hey!" She shouted as she reached out. The boy spun and gave her a small glare.

"Who spit in your breakfast?" She asked as his eyes seemed to soften but then go back to his dull gaze. He sighed as he reached into his pants pocket and pulled out a pen. Reaching for her hand he wrote.

"I'm sorry….He's out sick…. This is his address. He's a good guy." Haruka glanced at Natsumi and then finished writing.

"He's my friend can't blame me for being on guard," He finished and shoved his pen back in his pants.

"I understand, but..understand...I'm not out to hurt him...I like Makoto…" She blushed as her words seemed to tumble out. With a soft chuckle Haruka nodded and headed into school.

"Hurry or they'll notice you leave,"

Natsumi smiled as she ran through the rain. Stopping at her house first. Changing quickly out of her school uniform. Thankful that her mother wasn't home either. Dressed in a sweater dress in pale blue with dark blue leggings. She scrambled around her house then into the kitchen as she began to make a small pot of soup.

"I will make this better," She said triumphantly as she finished up the soup and packed it up tight and water sealed. Pulling on her coat and slipping into her boots, she watched as Koto rubbed at her legs meowing as he looked ready to jump.

"Guess it couldn't hurt," She said as she pulled her hood up and the cat jumped. It slid into the hood and laid on her shoulders hidden away under her dark hair. Picking up her bag she locked up behind her and headed to the address on her hand.

*Knock*

Makoto glanced up from his spot on the floor.

*Knock Knock*

Sitting up fully, Makoto Tachibana stared at the front door confused. Getting up he walked to the front door, his blanket falling off his body as he opened the door.

"Yes?" He asked and right away flushed as he saw who was there. Slamming it shut, he ran up the stairs looking desperately for a pair of pajama pants. He'd answered the door in just a shirt and boxers.

Natsumi stared at the closed door. Koto gave a small mew as she started to laugh. She gripped her sides as the laughs became louder, the door slowly opened up again revealing a very flushed Makoto.

"Hello…" He said as he tried to catch her eye. She held up her hand as she let the laughs slowly die down. Tapping at her cheeks as she stood back up she gave a few off handed laughs as she looked at the boy.

"Hello, Haruka told me you were sick," She flashed him a smile and held up her back pack.

"Also made you some soup!" She said excitedly as Koto peaked out from his hiding spot to watch Makoto. With a stretch the cat jumped down and walked, as if he owned it, into the house.

"Hey get back here little bugger!" She said as she made to grab him.

"Come in, it's warmer in here." He said as he stepped aside and gestured in. Natsumi smiled as she stepped in. Setting her bag down she stripped off her jacket. He took it and hung it up as she slipped out of her boots. He set some slippers down for her and picked up her bag. With an off handed cough he headed into the kitchen.

Natsumi followed, glancing into the living room seeing that Koto was curled up on an abandoned blanket. She rolled her eyes at the cat as she went into the kitchen. He was pulling the container of soup out and setting it down. He coughed into his shoulder quickly before turning to get a couple of bowls. Setting them down, he worked on setting a pot of water on the stove.

"I hope i'm not imposing...well Koto I mean. He's a character," She said as she poured a bowl for Makoto. She left the other empty as she'd made it for him not herself. He turned back to her and then looked over to the cat curled up.

"Koto huh?" He turned back to the pot and pulled a few mugs down.

"Yes. He picked it himself believe it or not." She played with a spoon as she blushed. Glancing at her reflection she made sure she didn't look like a wreck in her rush to get here.

"So how'd you find me?" He asked as he poured the water and brought a few tea packets. He set hers before her before sitting down himself. He dipped a tea bag in as he coughed into his shoulder again.

"Haruka showed me," She held up the hand with directions. Makoto rolled his eyes thinking of his water loving friend. She pulled it back and looked into her hot water.

"I...wanted to talk to you this morning. But when I saw Haruka alone...knew something was up. He told me you were sick, gave me directions and a simple "Hurry, or they'll notice you leave," She said the six words as emotionless as possible. A dull look on her face to go with it. Makoto was sipping away at his drink and spit it back into his cup.

"Yep, that's Haru."

Natsumi nodded as she wrapped her hands tighter around the cup. The tall boy began to sip at the soup "mmm"ing as he went. She smiled to herself as she glanced up at him taking him in. He wore a grey shirt with looked like a faded Orca on it. His hair was a bit messy and from the look of his skin he was a bit paler than normal.

"I wanted to come by and make sure you were okay...You left before I could get a word in," She said as she ran a warm hand through her hair. She'd let it down, not having time to do anything with it. Makoto's movements stopped a bit as she glanced away looking at anything in the kitchen but him.

"Least you could of done was ask if my first was okay," She continued on. Makoto's spoon slowly lowered and he glanced up through his bangs. He could see a pink tinge on her cheeks.

"Y-Your first?" He stuttered out. She turned back to him, leaning on her palm and looking down at the confused boy.

"Yep, Makoto Tachibana is my first kiss," She mustered up all her courage to keep a straight face as the boy looked up at her fully. His eyes seemed to water at that and he looked back down. Feeling that she'd pushed too far now she reached out and ruffled his hair.

"Calm down Makoto...I'm not saying it was bad." She tried to add a bit of laughter to her voice but the boy kept his head down as she kept her hand in his hair. It was soft to the touch and just seemed to wrap around her hand.

Sighing she got up and moved around the table. Pulling the boy to look at her was harder than she thought it would be. His build wasn't helping. Taking his chin in her hand she pulled him up and toward her. His eyes were a bit red, eyes ready to shed fresh tears. With her other hand she smoothed his bangs away and gave a small chuckle.

"I'm saying I wanted a proper one and you left me hanging Orca boy," His eyes widened as she leaned down and laid a chaste kiss on his. Feeling his body body move, she smiled as he kissed back, his arms moving to snake around her waist. His lips were soft against hers, he pulled her closer as his lips became a bit rougher kissing deeper.

Pulling back to take a deep breath. Natsumi leaned her forehead against his as she felt his ragged breathing. Looking at the boy she grinned wide as her hands ran up and into his hair. He seemed to purr at the touch, she rubbed her nose against his and pulled back fully to look at him.

"You're a big ol Kitty cat." She said as his green eyes opened up to her shining with a new light. She pulled away all the way, feeling the cold nip at her as his arms left her. He gave a small whine as she moved to the living room.

Makoto watched her as she sat down next to the blanket petting away at Koto. Finishing up his soup and tea he put the dishes into the sink and made a quick beeline upstairs. During his absence Koto had gotten up and made his way onto Natsumi's lap. The cat mewed a bit before setting itself into a content purr.

COming back, Makoto pulled the forgotten blanket around himself before sitting next to Natsumi holding out a box. Freeing her hands she accepted the box.

"I told you I had a present for you…" He opened up a part of the blanket and wrapped it around her. She nodded as she looked over the bright green wrapping. It was tied with a white ribbon. She slid the ribbon off and then began on ripping open the wrapper. Koto hearing the sounds swiped at the wrapper playing with it as he got of her lap.

The white box inside had and easy lift off top. Opening it up Natsumi gasped.

"Mako…"

"Since I ruined your other pair...any I've noticed you haven't gotten another pair." He took the lid out of her hand he set it aside as she slowly lifted out the set of headphones. Feeling them in her hands she marveled at them. The headband was hard plastic bright green with the dark blue accents. The ear pieces were a nice soft leather in the green color, the cord was tough woven string around the cord. As she lifted them up she noticed that something was attached to the end.

A small media device was attached.

"Makoto...this...this is too much…" She managed to get out as she laid the headphones over the device. He leaned in and kissed her cheek smiling.

"No…" He kissed her cheek again.

"Natsumi…" He pulled her face close as he kissed her lips deeply. Clinging to his shirt she kissed back. Trying to relay all the joy and excitement she felt. He was the first to break away this time.

"Anything for you Natsumi-chan,"
