Hey again, everybody. It's official. The guy I like and my friend have gotten together. Oh well, here's another chapter for y'all anyway. Let's have at least one romance turn out good.
Oh, and Hcc, he wasn't my boyfriend. He's just they guy I almost completely fell in love with. This isn't the first time this has happened, either. And I don't know if this one was harder than the first time or not, but yeah, I'm a pain magnet. Or so it would certainly seem.

And to top it off, more has happened since then, along the guy lines, in such a way as to mean I've been reunited with my first ex who I never fell out of love with (we were together for five years and has been one of my closest friends for almost ten), cnfessed to him, and found out he's practically engaged. But that's all well and good, because I'm happy for him. As much as I may have loved him, and however much he may have loved me, the amount of devotion he has to his fiance just tells me I lost as soon as he met her. So I'm fine with it. By the way, I had the above written for quite the long time. This bit here is the latest. Anyways, on to the story!!
Disclaimer: TMM is not mine, nor shall it ever be. If it did, I wouldn't be having such crappy relationship problems, I don't think.

The only way I could even slightly cover half of the many hickeys was by wearing a t-shirt over my swim suit. It was a little large, so it hung just below my rump, my suit hidden unti the shirt got wet.
Lettuce couldn't help but giggle as I walked by, and even Ryou had a hard time keeping his composure. I did my best to ignore both of them, walking right by and heading for the water, my cheeks a tell tale pink.
With a quick jump, I dived down into the deeper end of the pool, allowing a small splash to follow my departure. The pool was deeper than I had expected, and joyously beneath the surface I spun around, pretending to be doing major flips. A gentle tug on my arm told me to come back up to the surface however, and with a bit of disappointment, I did, resurfacing to the bemused smile of a certain Ryou.
"Aren't cat's afraid of water?" he whispered, toying with my hair. We both clung to the side of the pool so as to stay afloat.
I stuck my tongue out at him. "Not this one. This kitty likes playing around..." No one but him would hopefully catch the innuendo.
Unfortunately, I had not thought ahead enough to consider I may not want to give such hints to him. With a sly smile, I caught the twinkle in his eyes. "Is that so..." he asked it in such a low and husky voice, I knew he was thinking about last night.
With an eep, I made a speedy getaway beneath the surface of the water. Though I could not see well enough beneath the surface t be sure, I knew he had followed me. For as long as I could hold my breath and stay below te surface, I swam around in circles knowing only by my instincts that he was chasng ,e. When i surfaced, he did, and he would make a grab for me, though I would continually dart below the surface just before he caught me.
Our game went on for quite the while, until we both climbed to the edge of the pool, exhausted and out of breath. Through our gasps we would laugh, and when we drew in more air it was like we could taste the other again.
A shriek pierced the air just as we were beginning to calm down, alerting us to our surroundings once again. Looking up, someone I had never expected to see was floating right above us, with the same twisted grin I remebered in my dreams.
"Kish."
