A/N: Hi everyone…
Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN MAI HIME/ OR THE SONGS.
Natsuki Kuga was smoking alone on the couch. she already downed three bottles of beer and it was just eleven in the morning. Dhuran was licking her foot. "It's been a week since I last saw her." The picture of the brunette flashed on her mind again. She then put a hand on the puppy's little head. "She's not my girlfriend, Dhuran! I just won the heart of the woman of my dreams I'm gonna suck if I don't stop thinking of someone else!" She told her puppy. The little dog just looked at her and panted. "But even you remind me of her. I'm being a faithless girlfriend."
Being a FAITHLESS partner is a something she never considered. Not in this life, nor the next. Probably, because, it is the reason why her father left them since she was three. The thought of acting just like her father made Natsuki irritable. "NO! I am not cheating on Mai! Thinking about someone else without doing anything is not called cheating! I am not my father's reflection." she smoked heavily. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Natsuki hurriedly opened the door.
A tall man with spiky black hair stood outside the door with a big suitcase. The man was tall, and handsome, he was wearing a black leather cardigan, a white undershirt and black jeans. Natsuki doesn't recognize the man. He was handsome. Indeed, he looked like Brendan Fraser. The man threw away the cigarette butt from his mouth and looked one more time at Natsuki before he spoke. "You look exactly like her." He said.
"Pardon me?" Natsuki asked while her heartbeat was speeding.
"Oh sorry, it's been a long time and you probably don't remember. I'm Shin." The man offered his right hand to Natsuki who was surprised to hear the man's name. "I'm Shin Kuga. I'm your father." There was a moment of silence finally, Natsuki shook Shin's hand.
'Is this the way a dad should introduce himself to his daughter?' "Please come in." Natsuki said as she turned around and led the man to the house.
Shin looked around the house. There were bottles of beer on the floor, a spot of the floor was with a dog's urine. The ash tray was full of cigarette butts. One of which is still lighted. "Sorry about the mess." Natsuki said. "No. it's fine, my house was messier than this plus back there, a lot of porn magazines are all around."
'Good thing, Mai hid the porn magazines in my room. He might have totally figured out that I'm not straight if he sees them.' "Okay."
"You also like motorbikes, just like me. You are indeed, my daughter." Shin smiled proudly at Natsuki.
'Dear Lord, that's a joke, right? We're not the same.' Natsuki thought. A while ago she swore that she is not a reflection of his dad and now, he hears this."Okay. I bet you're hungry why don't I cook for you in the kitchen, see you later." Natsuki said as she turned around to head the kitchen.
"Don't bother. Let's just grab a burger with extra mayo in a fast food chain somewhere."
Natsuki closed her eyes in disbelief. 'Dear Lord, Why?'
Aoi, Mikoto, and Mai are talking in the school cafeteria on a beautiful Monday morning.
"Lately, she's been acting so weird. Aoi, does Chie do that to you too?" Mai asked in disappointed mood.
"What are you girls talking about?" Mikoto who was busy eating ice cream got curious.
"Mikoto-chan, cover your ears." Mikoto automatically covered her ears. Aoi looked at Mikoto and then back at Mai.
"okay, dish!"
"Does Chie withhold sex?"
"No. Chie doesn't know what those two words mean. and right now, withholding thing is my job."
"Natsuki is withholding sex."
"Why do you think would she do that?"
"I don't know. She never fails to return my texts and calls. She is not even talking to Shizuru so I can't suspect her to be having an affair. But she's cold. And I don't know what to do. A few days ago, I teased her and she won't have sex with me. She never rejected me before… even when I was still with Yuuchi."
Upon hearing that, Aoi's brow furrowed. "You were seducing her even while you were still with Yuuchi?"
"Yes but that's not the point. The point is she changed."
"Maybe she was just tired."
"That's her excuse but Aoi, how can she be tired? That night, I cleaned her house and I even fed the dog while she was just watching Star Wars. I did those so she would be ready for an overnight action! I feel like She doesn't want me anymore!" Mai's voice was getting louder. Aoi smiled on the people from the next table and held Mai's hand which slammed the table. Mikoto removed the hand from her ear but the two did not notice.
"It's okay. This is what you'll do, you'll talk to her, ask her if something is wrong, tell her that you need to have sex because it's a part of your needs and that you don't feel good about her rejection. It will be okay." Aoi tried to console her friend.
"Aoi, am I fat?"
"No."
"Am I ugly?"
"Definitely not." Aoi answered
"Still, why doesn't she want to have sex with me?" Aoi opened her mouth to talk but Mikoto's words interrupted her.
"Don't worry. I will have sex with you if she don't want to!" Mikoto said. Mai then covered Mikoto's mouth and Aoi just smiled and bit her sandwich.
"Mikoto, don't say things like that!"
"You started it!"
Shin Kuga smoked a cigarette while he cooked an Italian dish for him and her daughter.
"It's great of you to invite your friends for dinner. You know, I really want to meet them." He said to Natsuki who was at that time watching his father's collection of his own motocross videos.
"Okay. They're on their way. Ahm… there's something I need to tell you." Natsuki answered.
"What is it? I'm listening." Shin answered. He just finished cooking and he feels like taking a shower.
On the other hand, Natsuki is trying to figure out a way to tell her dad that she is gay.
"I am… not fond of Barbie dolls as a kid…"
"Okay… I know that… what else?" Shin accidentally spilled some lemonade on his shirt while he was preparing the dinner table. "Fuck!" he whispered. He then went to the bathroom to take a shower.
"Dad, I'm… I am…"
Suddenly, an orange haired girl came in the house. She threw her jacket on the floor. She wore a yellow button down sleeveless blouse and a plain brown skirt. It looked like she has no bra because her nips are emphasized. "Mai… what are you doing here? You can't be here now."
"Shhh…" Mai said as natsuki opened her mouth to speak again, Mai sat on her lap, got her panty from her skirt's pocket and tied it speedily on the blunette's mouth preventing her to speak. "I don't want to hear excuses… and yes, I am not wearing my underwear… Right now you are." Mai then tied Natsuki's hands using her bra.
'What in the world are you doing, Mai? My father is here.' she tries to say these words but the garment on her mouth prevented her to speak. Mai started to unbutton her blouse as she kisses Natsuki's neck. "You can't stop me now, Natsuki." Mai whispered.
"What were you saying earlier? Oh…" everybody froze as Shin walked out of the bathroom half naked. Mai automatically buttoned her blouse and got off the blunette. Mai untied Natsuki. Natsuki then handed Mai her panty.
"Dad, this is Mai, my girlfriend." Natsuki said Mai bowed in respect.
Suddenly, the door opened and Chie and Nao walked in. The two exchanged looks after seeing a half naked man and Mai holding her under garments in Natsuki's living room. There was an awkward moment of silence.
"Dad, these are my friends, Nao and Chie."
"My father is in town! He wants to bond. We can do it some other time not now, please try to understand." Natsuki defended herself from her very upset girlfriend.
"Fine! If you don't want to sleep with me, then don't! And you always have excuses anyway!"
"Hey, okay, I don't really want to fight with you. Let's just forget it. Please?" Natsuki begged. Mai then smiled and whispered something in her ear.
"Okay, how about you go to the dorm later? Mikoto won't be there till tomorrow afternoon. She said she'll be in her grandfather's house.
"Okay." Natsuki answered as the other girl disappeared in the crowd, Natsuki's feet led her to the school's botanical garden. She never went there before. She just wants to hide from her father and from her sex crazed girlfriend.
Her father wants to go around the town on bike with her. He was actually a cool guy. He accepted easily that Natsuki is gay. Everyone would like to hang out with his dad but Natsuki's trust in him is not yet established. From her point of view, Shin is still the jerk who left them years back.
The blunette sat on a bench and took a cigarette stick and a lighter from her pocket. She then started to smoke as she looked at the beautiful flowers. She's alone now, so she figured she won't be caught.
She was in a good moment of silence when a rich accented voice interrupted her..
"Do you not know that smoking inside the campus is leading to three days detention?"
"Jesus you scared me! Go away!" Natsuki said as she turned around to face the intruder. 'Shizuru? 'Now, staring at those crimson eyes is a dream come true.'
"Ara, my apologies Natsuki, are you ok?" Shizuru asked. She broke off from the gaze.
"My girlfriend (Shizuru looks away and sighs upon hearing the second word) wants us to have sex. And my dad came home after leaving me since i was three now wants to bond."
"Ara, so I see, you are not at all having a bad day. If you'll excuse me, I have other errands." She turned around to leave but Natsuki but the latter continued to speak
"It is terrible. if it is not, I would have given Mai what she wants. And i would have gone home earlier to bond with my dad. Things finally fell into perfect place... do you know that?"
"Natsuki! I don't want to hear this." 'what is wrong with you? Do you really have to make me feel this bad? Is it not enough that you chose her from me that you have to talk to me about your sexual activities with her?' Shizuru don't have the strength to yell what's on her mind so she instead just tried to go away but the blunette won't let her. Natsuki turned following then faced the brunette.
"But these things are not what I want! Not anymore! And YOU!"
"Me? Am I your problem now?" Shizuru raised her eyebrow.
"YOU! My only problem is you! Everything I ever hoped for now finally turned to reality but you! I never asked you to come in my life! I never expected you to ask me on a date using sticky notes! I never expected you to take care of me.I never expected you to pretend to like mayo, and bikes and… and bars for an idiot like me! I never expected you to make me feel important…"
"But YOU CHOSE HER! YOU CHOSE HER OVER ME!" Shizuru can't control her hurt anymore but her words fell into deaf ears. And so again, she tried to leave but this time, Natsuki forcefully snatched her hand.
"I NEVER EXPECTED YOU TO COME! I NEVER WISHED TO KNOW YOU!"
Shizuru can't stand hearing the blunette's words anymore. "Natsuki, I'm leaving… let go of my ha.."
"I NEVER EXPECTED YOU TO MAKE ME FALL FOR YOU!" Shizuru widened her eyes in shock of hearing those words. Out of the blue, she brought Natsuki near her face and kissed her lips. Natsuki kissed back passionately.
