I KNOW IT'S BEEN A WHILE-SORRY FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. I JUST FOUND TIME TO GET AROUND TO WRITE. THINGS WILL QUICKEN FROM NOW ON PROMISE. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE REVIEWS! ^^
Earlier that day.
''Yo! Moshino how much do you love me?''
Moshino Takeshi, the chief editor of Japan's biggest media company had woken up that day feeling a little weird.
Something is going to stir up today I can feel it. Was his thoughts as he jumped to shower. Later that day, about an hour after he had arrived work a phone came, prooving of his intuitions.
''What's the dirt?'' Moshino asked with raised brows.
''Oh it's waaaay too good to be true- you'll shit to your pants- guaranteed.''
Moshino never liked the guy he was currently on the phone with, but on the other hand he would never question his tips of information, since they were always true.
''How much do you want?'' Moshino asked his second question.
''Well I'm thinking of taking a vacation to Los Angeles, so let's say 200,000?''
''Dollars?!'' Moshino exclaimed.
What the hell did the president had an affair or something!
''Indeed Moshino. Dollars indeed...''
As the conversation continued, Moshino's eyes widened, his jaw dropping down under gravity by the second. He finally let go of the phone, walked out to the main section and yelled on everyone;
''Everyone drop whatever the fuck you're doing! We have priority one and I wanted the whole dirt on my desk today! Cover topic is now changed, and I want the whole shit before any other magazine can! Takeda, track down Shizuru Fujino! Mashi, infiltrate into Natsuki Kuga's clubs! The only woman whom we never got a shot with her love intrest apparently had a whole dramatic love scene with that clubber playboy! And nobody cared to inform the magazines since apparently it was too good to be true and fucking idiotic people thought it was a movie scene! I want them both to be found! Shi! Shi! Shi get the fuck over here so the cover is ready to for the press by tonight!'' and with that Moshino Takeshi stormed back into his room with a small looking Shi behind him. Every photographer that occupied that floor a minute ago had already stormed out of the building racing to get the first shot. Only one of them took his time walking down. He had a cunning smile on his face since he was the only one where to find the alleged couple...
''How the hack do you turn on?'' Natsuki seized her French made luxury stove. She turned one handle to the right, creating a series of clicking sounds.
''Alright! We are on.'' she said with a joyous voice as the cast iron slowly warmed up. Shizuru was sitting on the nearby kitchen stool watching the Raven take over their breakfast in a very unintentionally sexy way. If somebody ever told her that in the near future she would have Natsuki Kuga prepare pancakes for her-half naked, she would have told that person to bugger off. But here it was the reality itself, she was sitting her legs crossed breathing in the scent of her lover from her tshirt, and watching the slim goddess act like a housewife. Well more like a little boy who walked in to his mother's kitchen for the first time but the scenery was delicious either way. Shizuru smiled, maybe this longing of 5 years wasn't all that bad after all.
''Oh Natsuki that was a double somersault!'' Shizuru praised her lover's successful flip of the pan.
''Told ya I was good.'' Natsuki grinned, showing off like a nine year old.
''Well can you do a three?''
''I can do thirty three, if I'm doing it for you.'' she winked. Right then on her second part of her show off, Natsuki tried on throwing the pancakes for a triple flip.
Flap. Four pieces of egg mixture now laid on the floor.
''Ara. There goes our breakfast...'' Shizuru started laughing, while Natsuki took her time in cursing the pan, and the eggs, and the chickens that laid those eggs.
The second try was a success, and Natsuki went over board when she forced Shizuru to try every piece of jam, syrup and chocolate with her pancakes. Shizuru was overwhelmed with the way Natsuki so childishly forced every bite to Shizuru's mouth with her own hands.
''And this bite with berry jam? Or maybe peanut butter? Oh Honey!'' Natsuki exclaimed, finding the right answer in her mind she reached for the honey jar.
''Natsuki my taste buds are numb.'' Shizuru put a sad puppy face, sticking out her colored tongue.
''Sorry...'' came a faint reply. The raven pouted ever so adorably.
''Well, I think I know a way we can refresh my taste buds.'' Shizuru, sly as a fox, pulled Natsuki from her shirt, almost causing the Raven to fall from her stool, and took a passinote kiss.
''Hmm. Yes I think it's working.'' Shizuru said with a wicked smile, her eyes closed, licking her mouth.
''You taste like fuit punch.'' Natsuki grinned sheepishly and pulled the chestnut in for another kiss. So the breakfast session ended and the two found themselves blessing their kitchen grounds by making out.
''Ouch! Ouch Ouch Aoow...'' Natsuki pulled her right foot to find a single red ceramic piece sticking out from her toe.
''Natsuki are you okey?'' a pair of panicked rubies asked.
''It seems my Spanish vase is out to get me for the last night's destruction.'' Natsuki just smiled.
''We made a mess didn't we.'' Both looked around the messy floor under them.
''Shizuru we're talking about you and me, the two most destructive people on earth. Adding five years of longing to the equation I'm surprised we didn't burn down the house to the ashes.'' The Raven smiled, letting go of her foot and wrapping her arms around her lover's back.
''Ara, at one point I was sure my body was about to produce substantial amount of thermal energy to burn the whole universe.'' Shizuru purred at Natsuki's ear and then nibbled the Raven's ear lobe causing Natsuki goosebumps.
An hour later both women were lying down leisurely on the Kuga Villa garden. Sun light shone upon them as the pool nearby created a serene low melody. Natsuki was reading her favorite magazine, the one with the ever so detailed information on engines, and tires, and whatever else motorbikes possessed while Shizuru held the gossip section of the daily news.
''Ara Natsuki isn't this Midori?'' the half naked chestnut showed a picture of a sexy flame haired women caught in her vacation at Bali.
''Let me see... Heck! Bali! I swear that woman enjoys life more than any.''
Natsuki repositioned herself, she was now lying on top of Shizuru, their bodies making a cross sign. She stopped highlighting the sections of her magazine and decided to put her marker into better use.
''Natsuki what are you doing?'' a pair of quizzical rubies tried to turn to emerald, brows raised.
''Hold still.''
''I swear I'll bite hard pup if you dare to draw something stupid.'' Shizuru said in a contradicting way to her usual cool Kyoto ben.
A mischevious laugh was all that Shizuru recieved. The raven's hands slipped down the chestnut's underwear creating enough space for her masterpiece.
''Ta-da! I should have become a tattoo artist.'' emerald proud of her work, glimmered in joy.
Shizuru leaned back in an awkward position to see what was written on her butt. There stood a hand written sign of four words; PROPERTEY OF NATSUKI KUGA.
''Honey, you should consider taking grammar lessons before becoming one.'' a little series of laughter escaped from the pink lips of Shizuru Fujino.
Natsuki looked to see what was wrong. Obviously the mistake couldn't be her name so she decided it was the first word that held a grammar mistake.
''Only if you'll be my teacher...'' Raven said playfully as she crossed out the extra E.
''Ara, am I hearing wrong or has my Natsuki just shared a fantasy?'' there was a playful smile accompanying the sexy Kyoto ben.
''Oh you heard right sensei.'' and the Raven kissed the sign she created and decided to tickle the girl under her, after all ever single minute passed with Shizuru Fujino was all Natsuki Kuga ever fantasized about.
Right then both women caught a little noise by the bushes. And then a click sound.
''Shit!'' Natsuki rose up to her feet in an instant and started running towards the sound.
''This is my property you asshole! I'll fucking kill you before you can even say cheese!''
A figure jumped out of the bushes and made a run for his life. He was a paparazzi photographer.
Oh god. Not this fast. Shizuru thought to herself. She at least wanted to spend a couple days alone with Natsuki before her war with the media began. She knew the steps very well, and she knew well her managers would do everything in their force to keep the two of them apart. It would not look good, not when the release of her movie was just around the corner.
Natsuki sprinted but failed to catch the trouble maker. She let out a sigh and looked back to find a thinking Shizuru sitting in her yard.
God she looks so perfect. So fitting. Her whole life would be picture perfect if she could spend her days looking at the image of a Shizuru sitting in her lawn. But Natsuki had an awkward feeling, an uneasiness as if trouble was arising in the horizon. She was right...
She walked towards the distant rubies and held out her hand. Shizuru got out of her thinking realm and looked up to find a smiling emerald.
''So soon.'' she muttered.
''Well actually I was surprised we even made it to the house yesterday.'' emerald smiled once again, her hand holding a delicate pair.
''They better write it good.'' Shizuru smirked.
''Huh?'' Natsuki gave out a confused looked and Shizuru enjoyed every millisecond of that look.
''I don't want to be seen as one of your conquests, the playboy of Japan...'' she made a pouting face as Natsuki turned red. She didn't know how to respond but to turn into a tomato.
Shizuru gave a small laugh at the scene folding in front of her. As the shade of Natsuki darkened the laughter became stronger.
Yes indeed Shizuru was laughing but Natsuki could sense the jealousy and irritation as well. She held the brunette from her waist looked deep into the rubies which showed it's insecurity more and more by the second and pulled her into a hug.
''Then maybe we should tell them. Or better yet perhaps show them?'' Natsuki purred to Shizuru's ear and the woman shuddered.
''Show them what?'' she replied faintly.
''Just how serious we are.''
The two made back into the villa their mouths attached to each other. They didn't even feel the urge to stop for oxygen. Afterall who the hell needs oxygen when they can inhale their lover.
''Mr Takeshi sir?'' a young boy asked with fear in his voice.
''What?!'' the man spat.
''Umm... Neither Natsuki Kuga or Ms. Fujino can be found sir. We bribed the hotel receptionist and he said she never came last night.''
''Well ofcourse she isn't gonna come! She maybe an actress but she is certainly not stupid! I don't care if they went to the end of the world or if they were was abducted by leprechauns and whacked over the head with their shillelagh sticks! Just find her!'' blooded face yelled.
A figure walked into Moshino's luxury office silently.
''Yo Takeshi! I got what you want...'' a man whose clothes were ripped apart gave a smirk to his boss.
''Well then let's talk about your raise shall we...'' Moshino's eyes shined so bright, his face holding onto an evil grin.
''Anoo... Shizuru does your cell phone screen shows an abnormality?'' Natsuki Kuga looked at her cell screen with amazement and shock reflecting from her eyes.
''What's wrong Natsuki?''
''Just check your cell phone. Has it rang?''
''It was on vibration.''
''I think things got public.''
Shizuru walked to her cell phone lying on the ground like many other object. She lifted her screen to find 47 missed call.
''Ara...''
She pushed the little button to see the callers. 27 from Haruka, 13 from Nao, 2 from Midori which was a surprise, and 5 from Mai.
''Ara... There is a text from Haruka demanding an explanation. Apparently we're on the news.''
''The news?!''
The raven reached for the remote control and both women sat on the couch as the colors became apparent from the screen. Natsuki looked sideways to find a worried looking Shizuru. She took her arm and caressed Shizuru's waist, she smiled when she saw the instant relaxation on Shizuru's face. Silently they watched as every channel on Japan aired their faces.
On the other side of the city a vase smashed into the wall. A pair of angry saturated blue was locked on the tv screen.
''You will pay Kuga. I swear you will...''
And then the figure grabbed the television, and threw it out of the hotel window.
Fortunately the flying television hit no one, but it attracted many by passers as they turned to look at the top floor of the prestiguous hotel with wide eyes.
''Natsuki please slow down or I'm gonna pop a lung.'' The helmet couldn't hide the widened ruby eyes.
Natsuki just blushed and decreased her speed, she actually liked when Shizuru's grip tightened with the speed.
After much due Shizuru and Natsuki arrived at Haruka's office in downtown.
''Shizuru Fujino!!''
Knowing full well she was about to be scolded -something she absolutely can't take at the moment- Shizuru decided to give a cold look at the blond woman, as if to say make it quick.
''Woman! Don't look at me in that tone of voice!''
That sentence was wrong in so many ways, but it fitted Haruka Suzushiro perfectly.
'' This whole project is worth about 16 million in profits! And what do you do?! You run around trying to get inside Japan's biggest playboy's pants! There are more painless ways to kill me Bubuzuke!'' Haruka yelled at her friend with a red face.
Natsuki shrugged at the playboy comment but leaned towards Shizuru's ear, the chestnut leaned as well to hear what her lover was whispering.
'' No offense, but I think it's *immoral* for one person to acquire that much wealth. How do you sleep at night?''
''Ara, I have a machine that simulates the sound of the ocean.''
''Do those really work?'' asked the emerald with genuine curiosity.
''Oh, yes, quite well actually. '' God she loved her gullible Natsuki. So very much.
You make it impossible for me not to love you.
''Okey Shizuru let's talk strategy, both of you sit down!''
Both lovers sat down with amused smiles on their faces, their hands clinging onto each other, unaware of their future. Knowing only one fact; they have each other now.
But is that enough?
