Kotoko returned to their room only to find Naoki sat on the edge of the bed looking thoughtful

"I don't see gills mister" Kotoko muttered as she stomped over to him and place her hand on his brow again only to find that the warmth that had worried her before was gone.

Naoki looked up and once realising just how short Kotoko really was decided to take advantage of the breast that were at eye height. Tilting his head back he looked at Kotoko who was muttering to herself

"Why has his temperature gone? I'm sure he had one before and" she stopped speaking when she felt his mouth on her breast hungrily pulling her nipple into his mouth through the layers of t-shirt and bra. Gasping she clutched his head as she closed her eyes. Turning her to the side Naoki never left contact with her breast and she squeaked as she fell onto the bed and Naoki climbed on top of her, bringing his hand up he replaced his mouth with his finger and thumb as he latched his mouth onto the side of her neck sucking and biting until he left a large red mark where her neck met her shoulder. Slowly he moved his lips down to her collarbone and pushed the neckline down with his nose. Quickly he pulled Kotoko up into a sitting position so he could pull the t-shirt off and reaching around her back, he unhooked her bra pushing it out of the way he let her breasts fall into his hands before burying his face between them.


Kotoko lay with her head on Naoki's stomach waiting for her breathing to get back under control

"I take it you're not ill" Kotoko rolled over slightly so she could look up at him

"Never was don't know what made you think I was" Naoki looked down at her a small smile on his face

"You felt warm" Kotoko protested glaring at him

"The house is warm" Naoki muttered looking away. "So are we going to have a proper conversation about us then?" Naoki rubbed her shoulder

"I'm not ready to get married yet, we're only just starting dating and now you want to get married, can we just focus on dating please?" Kotoko looked up at him with big eyes

"Fine, we'll focus on dating" He squeezed her shoulder "But if you get pregnant again then we're straight up at that alter" Naoki sighed

"Fine with me, but I don't want to get pregnant again for a long time, I don't think I could take it" Kotoko turned her head so she was looking at the ceiling again

"I'm not saying get pregnant next week, but if we do get married then wouldn't we want kids?" Naoki asked rubbing Kotoko's back as he looked at the back of her head.

"At the moment I'm still struggling not to punch you as it is. You think I won't when the hormones kick in? just drop fucking wedding talks already" Kotoko sat up pulling the covers with her as she searched for her clothes.


Breakfast was a frosty time in the morning, Kotoko wouldn't look at Naoki and when she did it was only to glare at him.

"Big brother have you done something to upset Kotoko?" Noriko asked looking at her eldest son.

"AS if I could do something to upset her" Naoki growled under his breath

"Kotoko what's wrong?" Noriko asked the younger woman as she watched her bite into her toast with more force than necessary

"Nothing, I just didn't sleep well that's all" Kotoko smiled at Noriko and then went back to her toast

"Will you be late tonight?" Noriko looked between Naoki and Kotoko

"I won't be late" Naoki said before taking a drink of coffee

"I will, I'm meeting some friends" Kotoko smiled as she stood up

"Who are you meeting?" Noriko asked

"Just some friends, don't worry if it gets too late then I'll crash at Kage and Taka's place" she placed her plate in the dishwasher and left, picking up her bag as she went.

"Big brother, what's wrong with Kotoko?" Noriko leaned over the table as she asked her son

"I don't know" Naoki began to read the paper

"Judging from the noise from their room last night I know" Yuuki muttered as he stood up


Kotoko pushed the bud of her earphone into her ear as she walked, she only had a half shift for the day and had agreed to meet up with some friends from school that she'd not seen for a long time and having packed a change of clothes before she left she would be fine. She was just about to cross the street when her phone rang and glancing down she saw that it was Kage

"Hey did I lend you my copy of Hana Yori Dango?" Was Kages opening words

"Yeah you did but I gave it you back, did Taka lose it?" Kotoko frowned when was it that she'd watched the drama?

"He'd better not have I'll kill him if he has, sorry to bother you about this but I wanted to watch it again. You're meeting your old school friends tonight ain't you?"

"Yeah, are you going to come this time?" Kotoko crossed the road making sure to look twice as she did because she was on the phone

"And have to listen to the class say that I've not changed and look the freak I did back then and why can't I just be normal? I'd rather beat Taka at games and listen to music, but tell me how it went though and let me know when you get back home okay?"

"Don't worry I will, and I will be sure to let them know that you are fine, still a freak but a freak with a good taste in music" Kotoko laughed before hanging up and playing the music once more.


Taking a deep breath Kotoko pushed open the door to the restaurant that the gathering would be. She hated doing this, apart from Jinko and Satomi she'd not had many friends and the popular ones from her class had always been mean to her. Walking through she was surprised to see Kin Chan there

"Yo" He waved at her and smiled when she came closer

"You went to the same school as me and were in my class?" Kotoko sat on the empty chair near him

"Yeah, you didn't notice me, I've changed a bit since I left school so"

"Kotoko, don't you remember that Kin chan was the one that like you?" Jinko asked as she sat down next to Kotoko making the girl jump

"It was him?" Kotoko turned to look at her friend and saw Satomi

"You really should get your head of the clouds sometime Kotoko" Jinko patted her on the shoulder as Kotoko frowned, she'd not been that spacy while she was at school had she?

"Don't worry about it" Kin chan smiled as he watched the frown on her face "I've grown up now, so it's not that big a deal"

"You're too nice to her" Satomi leaned over in her seat and looked at him

"A man can't help but be nice to someone who he liked for so long a time" Kin Chan laughed as he stood up "I'm getting a drink do you want one Kotoko?"

"No thanks, I'm okay for the now" She smiled ignoring the looks that Jinko and Satomi shared. Waiting until he was out of earshot she glared at them both "What?"

"He still likes you" Jinko sang while Satomi giggled
"How about you give him a try if it doesn't work out with Naoki" Satomi smiled

"How about I tell your husband about that week we went away before you got married" Kotoko shot back glaring

"Whoa don't go that far" Satomi paled as she looked at her friend


Kotoko staggered into the house in the early hours of the morning, once Kin chan had joined them again they started a truth or dare drinking game, only with Satomi she was drinking water. Then when they had finished truth or dare they started an I have never, Kotoko being the shy kind of girl that she was had ended up drinking a lot as they came out with things that they knew she wouldn't have done. I mean come on, why was she the only one who'd not had sex in a park and nearly been caught by the police? The wildest place she'd had sex was in Naoki's office. With the door locked and the blinds down so no one could see in

"What the hell?" Yuuki gasped as he bumped into her as he too snuck in

"Yuuki!" Kotoko putted the younger boy to her and hugged him

"Let me go you moron" Yuuki growled but it only made Kotoko laugh

"What's going on?" Naoki asked as he walked down the stairs

"Brother help me" Yuuki gasped as Kotoko hugged him harder

"Jackass!" Kotoko sang looking at Naoki before turning her attention to the mirror that hung next to the door and saw her reflection. Her lipstick was smudged all over her chin from the drinking and the habit that Kotoko had of when drinking wiping her mouth with the back of her hand. It was one of the main reasons she didn't normally wear lipstick when she knew that she would be drinking properly

"Kotoko, do you want to let go of Yuuki?" Naoki asked as he reached the bottom of the stairs holding his hands out like he was talking to a scared animal

"No, he's mine!" Kotoko cried hugging Yuuki even tighter

"Brother help please" Yuuki pleaded staring up at the drunk woman

"Kotoko, do you want some ramen?" Naoki asked heading to the kitchen

"Food!" Kotoko cried letting go of Yuuki as she ran for the kitchen leaving both Irie boys watching after her


Groaning as the alarm went off Kotoko reached out and tried to smack the sleep button, only to miss it sending it falling to the floor

"Fuck" She cracked an eye open and watched as Naoki walked over from the door, placed both mugs that had been in his hands on the bedside table and turned the alarm off

"Thank you" Kotoko muttered before burying her head back into the pillow

"You might want something to drink" Naoki smiled knowingly, how often had he been like this after drinking too much

"I am never drinking again" Kotoko swore as she sat up and excepted the mug Naoki handed her making him laugh, how often had he said those words

"How much did you drink anyway?" Naoki asked looking at her

"Stupid drinking games, then I was having shots, and I think there was some pints of cider or beer at some point as well" Kotoko looked like she wanted to be sick at the memory of how much she had drank the night before

"Mother is making miso soup if you want some" Naoki said standing up and crossing to his wardrobe

"Miso? Sounds perfect" Kotoko smiled that was just what she needed to help settle her stomach tossing back the covers she stood up and stretched before clutching her head as she felt like her brain was going to slide out

"I'll help you downstairs" Naoki smiled as he took hold of her arm and helped her dress.


Kotoko and Naoki seemed to come to some sort of understanding after that, he didn't push talks about wedding on her and she didn't freak out as much as she had, Kotoko seemed to be calming down and starting to except that maybe being with Naoki wasn't so bad.

"Do you want a lift to work or are you going to walk?" Naoki asked as he and Kotoko pulled their shoes on one morning

"I think I'll have a lift please" Kotoko smiled as she leaned against him, pulling her shoe on

"Okay, do you want a lift back as well?" Naoki asked as they walked out

"Sure, I don't think I've got anything to do tonight" Kotoko laughed as she climbed into the car

"Do you want to go and watch a movie when we've finished?" Naoki asked looking over at her as they set off

"Yeah sure, what do you want to watch?" Kotoko asked. Plans of watching Rurouni Kenshin again flashing through her head

"Not that Kenshin film" Naoki snapped before he could help himself

"Oh, fine then, let me think about what's on and we can decided" Kotoko sighed, she really wanted to watch Satoh Takeru

"STAR WARS!" Kotoko suddenly shouted punching her fist up in the air and hitting the roof of the car

"HEY! Watch it" Naoki jumped before glaring at Kotoko

"Sorry, but I just remembered that the new star wars is out, I really, really want to watch it as well I watched the other ones so I really have to watch this one" Kotoko told him doing a little dance in the car seat as she spoke

"Fine, we'll go and watch the new star wars if that makes you happy" Naoki smiled at her as he started to pull into the hospital car park. Stopping he turned to look at Kotoko, her hair was pulled up showing her neck in the way he liked it most, perverted thoughts swam through his mind of how he could mark her neck without her noticing

"Are we just gunna sit here all day?" Kotoko asked turning to look at him
"I'm just waiting for you to realise that there's a grain of rice stuck to your cheek" Naoki lied before reaching out a hand and grabbing that "Rice grain" Before shaking his hand as if getting rid of it. Kotoko raised an eyebrow at him she knew she didn't have a rice grain on her face. Leaning over she softly kissed him and grinned when she pulled back

"You had a grain of rice on your mouth" Kotoko laughed as she climbed out of the car.


Walking out of the hospital after they had finished their shifts neither Naoki or Kotoko noticed that they were being followed by a woman holding a camera. Climbing into the car they set off still unaware that they were being followed. There was a lot of traffic as they drove to the cinema so the car that was behind them could keep up with them easily without being seen. Pulling up in the car park Naoki turned to look at Kotoko

"Promise me you aren't going to cry" Kotoko glared at him

"Why would I cry?" She growled before gasping "Do you know something that happens in it?" She reached over and grabbed his shirt pulling him closer she began to shake him

"Tell me! No don't tell me you'll spoil it, no tell me, no don't" she threw herself back into her chair glaring at him

"I don't know anything, but I've read online that some people find it a very sad film" Naoki muttered as he looked at her

"So you've not seen it then?" Kotoko smiled at him

"No I've not, I've not seen the other ones as well"

"You've not seen star wars?" Kotoko gasped "How could you not have seen star wars?"

"I just haven't" Naoki shrugged

"You have to watch them!" Kotoko exclaimed

"I don't want to" Naoki blinked why was it such a big deal

"Okay let me put it this way, watch them or no sex, no blow jobs, no hand jobs, nothing" Kotoko smiled at him, a gleam in her eyes

"Do you think you could cope?" Naoki laughed

"I could last longer than you" Kotoko smiled showing her teeth

"Okay 1 month" Naoki swallowed "No sex or anything of the kind for 1 month, if you win I'll watch star wars"

"And it you win?" Kotoko raised an eyebrow at him

"I'm not sure yet but I'll think of something" Naoki said thoughts of making Kotoko stay naked whenever they were in their room

"Fine but nothing too perverted" Kotoko held out her hand for him to shake to seal their deal "No come on or we won't be able to get popcorn" She jumped out of the car. Once they got their popcorn, 2 buckets because Kotoko refused to share hers, same went with the drinks "But I don't like diet coke" she'd cried when Naoki had asked for one big diet coke "I don't like normal coke" Naoki had replied glaring at her "Well get 2 drinks then!" Kotoko had shouted before dancing around when she got it holding her popcorn bucket and drink to her chest.

Dropping his head into his hand Naoki called out to her to get a move on or they would miss the trailers. Once they entered the room Naoki and Kotoko froze as they realised that they had come in quiet late and the lights had already gone down leaving poor visibility even for those who weren't night blind.

"Give me your hand" Naoki muttered so not to disturb the other people

"My hands are full" Kotoko whispered and Naoki had to shake his head from the perverted thoughts that went through his mind at those words

"Give me your drink or hold the popcorn to your chest with your arm but you need to give me your hand so I can help you" He reached out to find her hand and help her move the popcorn so he could lead her

"This is why we should have come earlier" Kotoko hissed as they sat down

"We were too busy arguing about sex" Naoki whispered in her ear making her blush quickly she stuffed some popcorn in his mouth only to bite her lip to stop a groan coming out as he decided it was more fun to suck her finger. Glaring at him they both still didn't realise that the person who'd followed them from the hospital was sat right behind them watching everything they did.


Naoki had to lead Kotoko out of the cinema once the film had finished she was in a state of shock

"Kotoko please help me out here and walk straight" Naoki grunted as he stopped her walking into the door

"But how could he?" Kotoko whispered, the tears still in her eyes

"Because he could" Naoki snapped as he finally managed to get her into the car

"But he, he" Naoki groaned slamming his face into his hands before growling at her

"I don't want to hear it anymore Kotoko, I don't want to watch star wars and I don't want to hear about it okay"

"You'll want to watch it when you realise you can't go a month without a good fuck!" Kotoko shouted

"A good fuck?" Naoki blinked

"Just drive" Kotoko sniffed turning in her seat to look out of the window

They drove in silence, well silence until ONE OK ROCK came on the radio with the last dance. Kotoko sang along despite the song being in English

"You speak English?" Naoki asked when the song finished, he'd learned the hard way that you don't interrupt Taka Sama when he was singing and even if it was a guitar solo you don't interrupt Toru San, to put it short you didn't interrupt the song full stop

"Not really, I can sing along with the songs and Taka sama does some songs that are in full English but if I listen to it for long enough I can pick up the words and sing along" Kotoko smiled remembering her failed attempts when she'd first started

"So you can sing in English but you can't speak in English?" Naoki asked while they were stuck in traffic

"I can speak a little English, hello how are you? 1 pizza please, where is the toilet?" Kotoko rattled off the extent of her English skills (I'm like that with Japanese, I can sing the songs but not much more than that I can say a few phrases but that's it)

"Do you even know what he's saying when he was singing?" Naoki bit his lip to stop himself from laughing

"I get the gist of it, he's saying" She paused as she thought "He's saying that the relationship isn't working out anymore, the things that used to make him smile when they first got together don't make him smile anymore and he doesn't feel the same as he did at first, and are they wasting time being together when they both would be better apart but despite the fact that they're not going to be together anymore, he still cares for them regardless of them being together or not" Kotoko smiled when she finished, how many hours had it taken her on the internet translating the lyrics to Japanese so she could understand what it was that her beloved Taka Sama was singing.


The conversation carried on like that for the rest of the journey, they didn't know the trouble they were in when they would finally arrive at the house.
Pulling up to the house Naoki saw Yuuki at the window trying to signal him something but he couldn't make out what it was. Opening the car door he waited until Kotoko was walking to the front door before sighing and grabbing his coat he locked the car following after her. Opening the front door they were greeted by a scowling Noriko who was sat on the stairs waiting for them to come in.

"Noriko what's wrong?" Kotoko asked rushing forwards

"You!" Kotoko jumped back as Noriko sprang up a finger pointed at her and then Naoki

"Mother?" Naoki asked

"You think you could keep it secret from me? You think that I didn't know what was going on?" Noriko cried making Naoki and Kotoko go pale, did she know?

"Noriko?" Kotoko asked softly

"You went on a date!" Noriko shouted shoving the camera that had been on the stairs next to her under Naoki and then Kotoko's noses so they could see the pictures that were on it, the both of them walking out of the hospital, them both sitting in the car, Kotoko when she had been trying to strangle Naoki when he'd warned her not to cry, them holding hands as they walked out of the screen room, them hugging as they stood at the car, not that Noriko knew Naoki was only doing it while he tried to find his car keys and Kotoko still couldn't stand up right.

"You thought you could lie to me!" Noriko cried throwing herself at Kotoko who only just managed to catch the older woman

"Mother" Naoki spluttered as he watched the both of them

"Mama" Yuuki ran over and tried to help Kotoko with his mother while glaring at his older brother "Couldn't you understand my signals" He hissed at Naoki who blinked

"Is that what you were trying to tell me?" Naoki asked

"Yes how could you not understand?" Yuuki rolled his eyes as he finally managed to get his mother off the startled Kotoko. Quickly Naoki grabbed Kotokos hand and they ran upstairs leaving Yuuki holding a sobbing Noriko watching after them.

"Well" Kotoko laughed as they shut the bedroom door behind them and locked it for good measure

"I didn't think she would find out this soon" Naoki sat on the bed

"Guess we were being stalked" Kotoko snorted "How could you not notice?" She looked at Naoki

"How could you not notice?" Naoki shot back

"I don't tend to be stalked, you on the other hand have your own stalking fan club and that's just the nurse" Kotoko sniffed before turning around trying to find her laptop

"What are you doing?" Naoki asked sitting on the bed next to her after she'd put in her password, she wouldn't tell him what it was and no matter how many times he'd tried he still couldn't get in. my show's about to start" Kotoko smiled at him before turning back to the screen and Naoki's eyes went wide at the picture that was her background. "Kotoko" Naoki spluttered as he looked at the picture

"What?" Kotoko asked not taking her eyes off the screen. The picture that was Kotoko's background was a collection of half-naked men

"How can you have that on your computer?" Naoki asked

"What and it's okay for you to have-naked women on yours?" Kotoko asked raising an eyebrow at him

"I don't have anything like that on my computer" Naoki blushed

"No you just have porn on your home computer don't you ya little pervert" Kotoko grinned

"Kotoko" Naoki growled

"Fine I need to watch my show anyway so shush" Kotoko said clicking on a link and pulling up her show.
