6 Months Later…
A Hotel in Tokyo
Mai And Tate's Wedding Reception
o0o0o
Natsuki leaned closer to the brunette who was sitting next to her. Her right arm was draped around the brunette's shoulder; her fingertips lightly touching, caressing her wife's bare, soft arm. Shizuru's right hand was gently touching her left cheek, the other was resting on her lap, squeezing it from time to time. Her wife was whispering something in her ear, something only meant for her to hear. Something a little inappropriate that made a light blush make its appearance.
"H-Hontoni?" Natsuki raised a surprised brow, "Again?" She whispered, Emerald eyes looking at Shizuru who just stared back, smiling, and gently holding her bottom lip hostage with her teeth, her cheeks rosy as well.
That mischievous smile of hers, Natsuki knew exactly what that smile meant. It meant she wanted to do naughty things with her. Very naughty things.
Then, she felt as Shizuru leaned in and gave her a few pecks on her reddened cheek, then moving a little further to the side, seductively and very slowly biting her earlobe, then finishing by going back and giving her a slow kiss on her pink lips.
And those kisses, those whispers, those lips, the blunette always happily welcomed. Always. She welcomed them anytime, anywhere. No matter who was watching, and no matter what.
Natsuki and Shizuru were at Mai and Tate's wedding reception. It had started at 7 pm, about an hour ago. They had already made their grand entrance, that's when the Master of Ceremonies introduced the wedding party, which included the four bride's maids and grooms, the parents, or in Mai's case, the sibling, and finally, the bride and groom.
Dinner had already been served, plates had already been cleared from the tables, and now the best man and maid of honor were giving their toasts.
"Ahem"
Or at least trying to.
"Ahem" Takeda loudly cleared his throat again, blushing profusely because of the two women next to him.
"AHEM!" He tried a final time, trying to break them up. Everybody's attention was on the happy, handsy couple instead of him, and he was the one who was speaking at the moment, giving his best man speech. Their attention shouldn't be on them, it should be on him!
Natsuki parted from their lingering kisses and glanced at the standing man. "Oh, is it my turn already?" She asked, a finger now pointing to her own flushed face, wondering why all eyes were on them. She wasn't really paying attention, and she didn't mean to be rude. It was all Shizuru's fault, she was distracting her with her inappropriateness and her touches.
"N-No, but you can go ahead, I-I don't think I can go on anyway" Takeda nervously muttered and quickly sat down, unable to finish his speech. He was starting to feel excited at the wrong place, and at the wrong time.
And everyone who was close enough to notice, close enough to see, laughed really hard because of this.
He hastily grabbed the fancy, flower patterned, white napkin on the table and placed it on his lap, trying to hide his excited, now erect member with it. Shizuru and Natsuki, the way they were acting just a moment ago, and seen from such a close proximity, was extremely hot and bothersome to watch.
"A-Ara~" Ruby eyes noticed what was wrong with the man and couldn't help and stifle a laugh.
"Why are you being so weird?" Natsuki, on the other hand, mumbled at him, eyeing Takeda with narrowed, questioning eyes. Then, she stood, left hand covering her mouth as she lightly cleared her throat, her right hand dusting the back of her long, purple dress to straighten it. She reached for her small, silver clutch on the table, taking out the speech she had written days ago, and placed it in front of her on the table in case she needed to refer to it.
Natsuki was good with speeches, good at memorizing the things she wrote herself. She really didn't need to have it with her, but brought it just in case her mind went blank at some point during the toast.
"Good evening ladies and gentlemen," Natsuki softly, happily began, "And thank you all for being here to celebrate Mai and Yuuichi's very special day" She felt as Shizuru reached for her hand and entwined their fingers together.
Emerald eyes looked down to stare at happy, loving Rubies for a second. She smiled at her, placed a short kiss on her soft hand, then placed her attention on the crowd once again.
"For those of you who don't know me, my name is Natsuki"
Shizuru brought her unoccupied hand up to her lips, gently clearing her throat.
"Etto~, Kuga-Fujino, Natsuki" She tried again, earning her a hysterical laugh from a special someone in the crowd. And by special someone, I mean Nao. She also heard the words 'you're so whipped' coming from the girl.
Natsuki glared at Nao's direction, which made Nao laugh even harder, banging her hand on the table and pointing right to her face.
This was Natsuki and Shizuru's first appearance as a couple again in a large event. And Shizuru noticed the stares people whom they didn't know were giving her and the blunette all through the night, as if they've never seen an openly lesbian couple before. She wanted all these strangers, all these questioning eyes, all these people, to know, that, she was Natsuki's and Natsuki was hers. That yes, they were lovers. That yes, they were together. That yes, they were in love. And that there was nothing wrong with that. Period.
"I'm the maid of honor and the best friend of the bride" Natsuki continued, green eyes ignoring Nao to place their stare on Mai and Tate who sat at their own separate table; the one reserved for the bride and groom alone.
"The first time I met Mai was on a boat in our first year of high school… She was on her way to Fuuka Academy with her little brother, Takumi" Natsuki smiled fondly at the memory, "We butted heads from very early on, we definitely had our differences, but became good friends in a very short time. And now, many years later, here we are. She's like a sister to me…"
The blunette kept the speech what she liked to call the three S's:
Sweet,
Simple, and,
Short.
She told a couple of jokes and stories about their high school and college years together. Poked a little innocent fun about the bride and her funny quirks, which made everyone in the room laugh. Even the bride cried tears of joy herself. She said a few endearing words about the groom, then a few words about their time together as a couple. And finished the toast with happy thoughts and wishes for the now married couple.
"Mai and Yuuichi" Natsuki said, her speech nearing its inevitable end. "May your love be modern enough to survive the times, and old fashioned enough to survive forever" She reached for her glass of Champaign and raised it, smiling brightly at them. "If everyone would please raise their glass and join me in congratulating the bride and groom, the new Mr. and Mrs. Tate!" Then added, "Congratulations, may you have a long and happy marriage" And finally, "Cheers to the happy couple!"
Everyone raised their glass and cheered. And after Natsuki's toast was over, the live band started playing an upbeat song so that everyone could get up and head to the dancefloor.
"That was a lovely toast, Natsuki" Shizuru smiled at her lover once she sat down, wrapping her arms around her neck and placing a chaste kiss on her lips.
"Ah~ Ie Ie, it was alright" Natsuki tried to play it cool, smiling at her wife while caressing her cheek. She was about to capture her lips again, but Haruka interrupted them.
"Can't you two behave for one god-damned-minute?" Haruka muttered, narrowing her eyes at the two women for the millionth time that night. Sitting next to them was a pain in the neck. "This is a strip club, not a freaking wedding!"
Everyone at the table laughed.
"What?" Haruka asked.
And Takeda couldn't help and sigh. …It's the other way around, Suzushiro-san… And he just sat there, sulking, listening to Natsuki and Shizuru flirt and kiss and talk, arms crossed over his chest, narrowing his eyes at the affectionate brunette.
He wished he didn't have to sit next to his high school love and her partner. It was really depressing. He was starting to think that his former classmate, the former Student Council President, Shizuru, was being extra clingy and affectionate tonight on purpose just to spite him. As if saying: Takeda, my boy, don't you see that she's taken, that she's mine, that she chose me, that I won. Get over it already. Move on.
He sighed again. Shizuru wasn't doing it on purpose, and he knew it. Shizuru wasn't like that. Shizuru was just a tease, a sexy tease. A sexy tease with a beautiful body and exotic face, not to mention her provocative accent that sends chills down everyone's spines when the right words were said. And let's add to that, her kindness, playfulness, humor, and intellect.
The more he thought about it, the more he thought the brunette was perfect. That he was no match for her. Anyway, he knew that this was how Shizuru was. She was just an affectionate woman. She was very expressive and open when it came to the love of her life. He just wished she wasn't doing it right now, in front of his face, with the love of his life.
He was still a little envious, to tell the truth, and a little hurt that Natsuki had rejected him all those years ago when he had graduated Fuuka Academy. He had confessed his love for her earlier that year, and she rejected him almost a year later with a simple message. Four simple words. Thank you, I'm sorry. He couldn't help and think that, perhaps, when she had sent him that message, she already had her eyes set on the brunette, that she already knew she had feelings for her. They always seemed so close, and Natsuki often frequented the student council room back then. Why? Who knows. But he often questioned the nature of their friendship.
And luckily for Takeda, Mai was now approaching their table, so the kissing and giggling and whispering would soon stop. All he was able to mutter when he saw her approaching was, "Thank god!"
"Natsuki!" Called a very pregnant Mai who was now a couple of steps away from the blunette. She was almost eight months pregnant now and looked like she was about to pop any minute.
She was glad she had taken Natsuki's advise a few months back and didn't buy her wedding dress right away. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to fit in it now.
It took her a while to believe that she was pregnant, to come to terms with her pregnancy. That she and Tate hadn't been careful enough and ended up getting pregnant. Just couldn't. She was in total denial for a couple of months, even after she had taken the home pregnancy test, and had gone to the hospital as well. She didn't believe the two little lines on it. Didn't believe the ultrasound and results. Just didn't.
Natsuki stood again and smiled at her very pregnant friend, "Oi!" Her very pregnant friend who had instantly pulled her into a tight hug when she was within reach.
"Thank you for your sweet words" Mai gave Natsuki a kiss on the cheek, then let her go. "You're like a sister to me Natsuki, you know that, right?"
And Natsuki timidly nodded, scratching the back of her head.
"So, how's everyone doing at this table?" Mai then cheerfully asked the lively group of eight, both hands on her hips. This was table number two of fifteen. Her small, personal wedding of sixty people turning into a big event without her noticing. They knew way too many people, that was for sure. "Is everyone having fun?"
Natsuki offered her chair to the happy bride, and instead opted to sit on Shizuru's lap, hands wrapped around her wife's neck as they talked with Mai.
Mai stayed at their table for a long while. She was chatting and laughing, telling all sorts of stories, even a few of Natsuki and Shizuru of when they had first started dating when they were in college. Stories which Shizuru mostly giggled about, adding a few details here and there to make it sound more convincing,
"Ara~ But we really thought Mai-han wasn't going to return to the dorm that night"
And Natsuki blushed and profusely denied,
"I-Ie! That's absolutely a total and complete lie!"
A couple of the stories were pretty embarrassing.
The time for the bride and groom's first dance as a married couple soon came, so Mai took her leave to join Tate at the dance floor. Midway to the song, the DJ asked everyone to join the couple on their first dance, which most of the guests did. Even Takeda asked Haruka to dance, which was quite a sight to see. Haruka's expression when he had asked her was absolutely and totally priceless. No one usually wanted to dance with her.
"Natsuki?" Shizuru said the name with a smile on her lips, a hand caressing her wife's lower back. "I've asked the band to play our song, it should come on after this one"
She had asked the band a little earlier to play 'The way you look tonight', but with a few modifications. She asked them if they could start soft and slow, just with piano and vocals, and then midway to the song, to ramp it up to lively Jazz. They said they would play it for her after the bride and groom's first dance.
"Dance with me?" Shizuru sweetly asked, the tip of her nose caressing the blunette's cheek.
"Always" Natsuki replied, then stood and straightened the back of her dress again. She offered Shizuru her hand, which the brunette happily accepted.
But, as Shizuru tried to stand up, she felt lightheaded and weak, her head suddenly spinning.
"A-Ara" Shizuru whispered, feeling dizzy, so she sat back down and closed her Ruby eyes, her left hand now shielding said beautiful eyes.
"What's wrong?" Natsuki worriedly asked, instantly kneeling in front of the woman. "You're not feeling well?"
"Ie, I'm fine… I just... I think I stood up too fast" Shizuru answered, leaning forward, elbows now on her lap as she rubbed her temples. Softly breathing in through her nose, out through her mouth. In through her nose, out through her mouth. She did this a few times until she felt better, until the room wasn't spinning anymore, until she felt her strength coming back once more.
The blunette grabbed Shizuru's glass of water from the table. Emerald eyes quickly scanning the table to see if Shizuru had finished her glass of wine, but there was still a lot left, she had barely touched it. And to her knowledge, this was still Shizuru's first drink of the night, the waiters hadn't stopped by to fill their glasses yet.
"Here, this might help" Natsuki brought the glass of water to the brunette's lips. She watched as Shizuru drank some of it, then parted her lips from it. "Feeling any better?" She said, setting the glass of water back on the table.
"Hai" Shizuru softly smiled at the caring blunette. "Ookini" She leaned forward and rested her forehead on the blunette's shoulder, feeling as Natsuki gently rubbed her back in an upward, downward motion. She stayed in that position for a little while, then, when she felt strong again, she stood, helping the blunette up as well as she did so.
"Are you sure you're okay?" Natsuki asked one more time, and watched as Shizuru nodded in response. She heard that their song started playing, felt as Shizuru started pulling her, leading her towards the dancefloor, but Natsuki couldn't bring herself to leave the table, not yet.
"You know what?" Natsuki prevented the brunette from leaving, it was probably safer to stay where they were, in case Shizuru felt dizzy again. "Why don't we dance right here? It's too crowded over there" She wrapped her arms around Shizuru's waist and started to slowly sway to the music, encouraging her to stay.
"Fufu, works for me" Shizuru slowly swayed to the music as well, instantly finding Natsuki's rhythm. She smiled as she wrapped her arms around her neck, pulling the blunette a lot closer. "I love you" She whispered in her ear, closing her eyes and resting her forehead against Natsuki's. "You make me really happy, Natsuki" They stayed that way for a little while, swaying in silence, until the brunette spoke again,
"Natsuki looks really sexy in this dress" Shizuru complimented her, her hands now massaging the blunette's scalp.
"I know, you already told me" Came the soft reply. She was about to compliment the brunette on her attire again, tell her how incredibly hot, incredibly sexy she looked in it, but the brunette suddenly spoke again.
"Did I also tell her that I can't wait to take it off?"
Natsuki swallowed. Yes, Shizuru did, while Takeda was giving his speech earlier, she did.
"Hmm~ Natsuki's so soft…" Shizuru's hands went to the blunette's cheeks, caressing her face as they swayed. "And she tastes and smells so good"
And Natsuki, well, she didn't know how to respond when Shizuru whispered that to her.
"I'm so turned on, Natsuki"
Natsuki's face then turned a deeper shade of red. Emerald eyes opened and stared at the brunette's calm face. She had said that earlier as well.
"I could spend all day with Natsuki between my legs… Rocking me all day in the most delicious of ways"
Uh oh. That's new. The way she was now touching her neck too, her nails grazing her a little deeper in that area.
"Mmmm… Natsuki knows how to make feel so good"
Natsuki raised an eyebrow, her green eyes lowering to look at Shizuru's lips, she was softly moaning and biting her lip again. And her cheeks were totally flushed. It's like, she wasn't even in the room. She was somewhere in fantasy land, lost in her head, in her own little world.
"You love me so good, Natsuki"
"..." Not a word from the blunette.
"Mmmm~" Another soft moan, another hot whisper, her lips now biting her own lips, then whispering, "Love me so, so good... Love me harder"
"S-Shizuru" Natsuki tried to place some distance between them, but Shizuru wouldn't let go. She wasn't sure how things got like this so suddenly. How Shizuru got so heated all of a sudden. Again.
"You don't understand" Shizuru seductively whispered to her, eyes still closed, so, so aroused. So turned on. She found Natsuki so irresistible, more so than usual. Her scent, her touch, her voice. Everything about her turned her on. "I can't control it"
The way she was talking, those whispers, those barely audible gasps and moans, Natsuki knew them so well. Shizuru wanted her, she wanted her now.
"We… We can't go home yet. T-There's still a few things I have to do, Shizuru" Natsuki tried to reason with her. She was the maid of honor, she needed to stay with Mai until the reception was over. There were about two and a half more hours left to go.
"W-We don't have to go home" Shizuru hastily replied, eyes opening to intensely stare at the blunette's nervous ones.
"You mean, book a room?" Natsuki whispered as they swayed. They were at a hotel, after all, it was the logical choice.
"I-Ie, i-it's already too late for that" It's like something had come over her. Taken over. "I-I can't wait that long, Natsuki" She was possessed by this burning desire to have her. To make love to her. She was trying to control it, control her libido, her actions, but she couldn't.
"I don't unders-" But she was immediately silenced, Shizuru's hungry lips meeting hers in an instant, then letting go.
"C-Car" Shizuru said as she parted their lips, looking at the blunette so intensely, with so much desire and need in the eyes. "L-Let's go to your car" So much desperation in her voice.
"Cho- Chotto matte, Shizuru" And Natsuki found herself being hastily dragged by the hand out the large room, "Chotto matte, I-I need the keys!" She reached for her silver clutch before it was out of her reach.
Shizuru hastily walked out of the ballroom, then down the hall. She walked past the receptionist, dragging Natsuki by the hand, not wanting to seem too suspicious by running. The minute they reached the garage, she hastily dragged the bewildered blunette towards the girl's vehicle. Since Nastsuki needed to arrive earlier to do some wedding things with Mai, they didn't arrive at the event at the same time. Natsuki drove her own car and Shizuru asked her driver to drop her off at a later time.
When Natsuki clicked the doors open, Shizuru immediately opened the back door,
"Oi!"
Pushed Natsuki into it, got in, then closed the door behind them.
"R-Really, Shizuru?" Natsuki said in panic as said woman rose her short, tight, golden colored dress up a little so that she could easily straddle her lap. The dress gathered, bunched up around her hips.
Shizuru wasn't part of the wedding party, she wasn't a bride's maid, she was just a guest. She had chosen to wear a golden colored, short dress with sequence on it. It was skin tight, so you could see every curve her body held. The dress was sleeveless, but it did have a high neck, covering most of the delicate area. She had four pieces of jewelry adorning her body tonight: diamond earrings, the diamond watch Natsuki had gifted her on Christmas, the bracelet she had given her on her birthday, and her wedding ring. The neck of her dress was too high to wear a necklace, and the sequence on the dress was sparkly enough that she didn't need any extravagant jewelry to make her dazzle. She also wore matching colored stilettos to add to the sexiness, making heads turn her direction wherever she went. And also chose to wear her hair down today, her long, wavy, fair hair cascading down her back.
"W-We can't do this here, Shizuru. There's not enough space" Natsuki continued, unable to believe that this was really happening. They have been frisky in her car before, but they only made out, not made love.
"Y-You don't understand" Shizuru whispered again between shallow breaths as she sat on the blunette. She needed Natsuki to touch her. Needed friction. She won't calm down until she gets it. "Your love drives me crazy... I just want you to love me…" The next words sounded so strange coming from her lips, it made her heart palpitate a lot more just by saying it. Beat a lot faster just saying it. "I just want Natsuki to fuck me"
Natsuki swallowed again, a little nervous and now turned on as well. Making love in her sports car was going to be difficult, though. There was not enough space.
"I'm so horny, Natsuki"
Natsuki looked at the woman in the eyes. She really wasn't lying. She could tell she couldn't control it. She has been a craved, sex addict the past few days. Has been craving for sex every single day. Today alone, they had made love twice already, once in the morning when they woke up, and then the afternoon when Natsuki was getting ready for the wedding. And about thirty minutes ago or so, before Natsuki had made her toast, Shizuru had whispered in her ear that she was craving her again, that she wanted Natsuki to make love to her again. To please get her out of there, and out of her dress, as soon as possible.
Natsuki now understood that she wasn't playing around when she said those things to her.
"What's gotten into you?" Natsuki asked as Shizuru grabbed her right hand and guided it towards her exposed, warm thighs.
"Please, Natsuki" Shizuru closed her eyes, eyebrows furrowing in frustration. "Don't make me beg… I need you inside me" But she had to beg, she couldn't take it anymore. Couldn't wait. "Please, Natsuki. I need you... Please"
Natsuki licked her suddenly dry lips. The last time she'd seen Shizuru like this, was when she was pregnant with Shiaki. It was like, every minute of the day, she was ready to jump on her, to pounce on her. That was before she had recovered from her amnesia, though. After that, the brunette had been too quiet, always keeping her distance.
...Kami-sama... Natsuki's heart instantly started beating fast at the realization. Shizuru's dizziness. Shizuru constantly craving sex. She also noticed Shizuru's sensitivity to smell as of late. Her complaining about her tender breasts. Her morning sickness. And she doesn't think Shizuru got her period this month, it could only mean one thing.
…I think it worked…
It was too soon to tell, they had done the insemination about two months ago at home. Natsuki had done her very best to make Shizuru comfortable that night, to help her relax. She had taken Shiaki to Mai's so she could spend the night over, then headed to the clinic to pick up the 'goods'. She had cooked a nice dinner for Shizuru, cooking everything the brunette wanted. She had taken her to bed, aroused her just as the doctors had said. Slowly and very tenderly made love to her that night, then did the insemination, and then helped her climax afterwards. The doctors had said that it was not necessary, but it helped if she climaxed, because orgasms were thought to help suck up the sperm, so the little guys don't have to swim too long a distance, giving them a better chance to reach their destination and fertilize.
…I think we're pregnant… Natsuki couldn't contain her smile. She wanted to say something to Shizuru, but then decided against it. Right now, the most important task, was, making Shizuru orgasm. Once she did, she was sure the brunette would feel better, feel more like herself again. The extra hormones in her body must be driving her crazy, causing a lot of tension.
"Natsuki, please" Shizuru begged again, her sex lightly grinding on the blunette every other second, begging for friction.
Natsuki once again swallowed and licked her dry lips. She really couldn't believe that they were going to do this here, in her car. But then thought, the sooner she gave in, the sooner Shizuru would climax. And because of the way Shizuru looked, it shouldn't take long for her to orgasm. They'd be out of there and back in the hotel, back at the party in no time. No one would notice they were gone.
She watched Shizuru's face as her trembling, right hand made its way to Shizuru's lacy panties, feeling every bit of soft skin on her way there. Her hand going in, caressing her trimmed curls, massaging the skin there for a few seconds. She watched as Shizuru arched her back a little in anticipation, her mouth hanging open a little, breathing through them. Noticed her shallow breathing, the tight grip she had on her shoulders for support. How she would slowly grind upwards, towards her hand, needing friction.
"Almost there, Natsuki… Make me yours. I'm all yours… Please"
Emerald eyes then watched as Shizuru bit her lip when she was nearing her folds. Natsuki could feel how swollen they were, swollen in pure arousal.
"Mmmmm~"
She touched her there, near her entrance, just a gentle caress, feeling her before entering her. Then, watched her lips as she went in, she heard her let out a gasp.
"Ah~ So good"
She heard Shizuru whisper when she was fully inside her.
"So, so good. Don't move… Stay there"
She heard her whimper.
And Natsuki couldn't help and close her eyes and let out a whimper of her own, feeling how warm she was, how wet she was without having to do anything, without foreplay. She did as was told and didn't move her hand, kept her fingers there for a little while, feeling as Shizuru's warm, delicious walls pulsed around her fingers.
And Shizuru, she felt such a sense of relief once Natsuki was inside her. She felt that such a high, yet an inexplicable calm, had taken over her. That's when she started to slowly grind on the blunette. Very slowly grinding in circles on her hand, riding her fingers.
"Mmmmm~, d-don't move, Natsuki" She told her again, not wanting her to move her hand. "Don't move" She whispered in delight.
She was in charge.
She knew what she wanted.
She could get it on her own accord.
Her own hips will do all the work to obtain it.
"Don't move" She went ahead and slowly captured her lover's lips, "Oh yes" Whispering between short kisses, "Mmm, yes" Feeling so good, but soon needing more than that.
Shizuru rested her forehead against Natsuki's. Her hips now stopping the circling motion to start the other rhythm that she loved most, the back and forth of swinging hips.
"Hmmm~" Another delightful moan escaped Shizuru's lips.
Shizuru grabbed onto Natsuki's neck, her trembling lips brushing against the blunette's, just touching, not kissing. Her pace was the same as before, slow, very, very slow, but she was going deeper with each push, grinding deeper with each thrust, grinding harder against Natsuki's hand.
"Oh yes... I'm so close" Shizuru gasped, hips moving faster and faster every passing second. "I'm so, so close, Natsuki" And in a matter of seconds, with just a couple of more deep thrusts, a couple of more hard swings, "Ahhhh~" She buried her flushed face in Natsuki's neck as her trembling lips let out that familiar, almost inaudible gasp. Her hips slowing down their movements, slowing and slowing and slowing until they came to a complete stop, riding off her orgasm.
And Natsuki, her face was completely red. Beat red. Blood red. She had just watched Shizuru get off on her own, with her hand. She didn't even do anything, she didn't even move. Didn't move her hand. It didn't seem like Shizuru needed her for this at all.
Shizuru remained there for a moment, totally still. She was trying to catch her breath. She swallowed, her hand going for Natsuki's shoulder, pushing herself off a little, adding a little distance. "I love you" Then whispered to her, placing a couple of breathless kisses on the blunette's lips, before getting off her to lay down on the seat, her long, bare, aching legs resting on the blunette's lap. "A-Ara... That was crazy" She said between breaths, an arm draped over her eyes, trying to calm the fast beat of her heart.
"I-I... I thought it was really sexy" Natsuki blushingly commented as she lowered the brunette's dress, making sure she was properly dressed again. Then, went over to her, and lay by her side on the leather seat, trying not to fall over because there wasn't enough room for them both. She propped her head up using her left hand, and watched the brunette's flushed face for a long while, watched it return to its normal color. Watched as she breathed through parted lips. She loved those plump lips. Really did. She wish she could kiss them all day long, all night long, all her life.
Her right hand then went down to Shizuru's belly and rested it there, caressed her there. If she was right, then soon enough, in a couple of months' time, that flat belly will become a small bump. A beautiful bump. Their beautiful bump.
"Natsuki?" Shizuru asked once her breathing had calmed, removing her hand from her Ruby eyes to stare at the woman hovering above. "I may be a little premature, but I think we're pregnant"
Natsuki was unable to contain her grin, "Oh really? What gave it away?" Then leaned downwards to capture her lover's lips. "Was it the morning sickness?" Another kiss, "How good I smell all the time?" And another, "Or how irresistible I am? You think I haven't noticed you can't keep your hands off me?" On second thought, "More than usual, I mean" Then added, "And now the dizziness started, next will be cravings, all the evidence just keeps piling up"
Shizuru giggled, "Ara~ Quite the detective my Natsuki is" Her left hand went up, fingers tangling themselves in cobalt hair, caressing her there. "You should've said something"
"I just figured it out" Natsuki leaned downward and rested her forehead against the brunette's. "We're going to have another baby, Shizuru" She whispered to the woman she loves. This woman who was now caressing her face in the most loving of ways.
They stayed silent for a long moment, until the blunette spoke,
"Ne, Shizuru" Natsuki said against her smiling lips, "Is this how its going to be for the next seven months? Because if it is, I really need to prepare" She captured her lips again, engaging in a slow, sensual kiss,
- Tap -
- Tap -
Until she heard someone tapping on her window.
Shizuru groaned, not wanting the kiss to end, it was starting to get hot and steamy again. "Ignore her" She had an idea of who it could be. "If you do, she'll eventually walk away"
Natsuki chuckled, then rose to a sitting position. As Shizuru had expected, it was Haruka tapping on their window, hands on her hips, not looking pleased at all, like always.
…Go figure…
Then, her Emerald eyes landed upon a fainted figure on the floor not too far behind, it looked like Takeda. Her Emerald eyes twitched, annoyed and embarrassed at the same time. If he had fainted, it could only mean one thing, he must've seen them, or more like seen Shizuru, going at it.
"I think I want to go home now" Natsuki told the smiling brunette, not wanting to deal with Haruka, and the stares they'd be getting when they got back inside. Haruka had a big mouth, there was no way she was going to keep this to herself.

"Please stop fidgeting, you're making me nervous" Shizuru held the blunette's hand hoping it would calm her a little. "Come sit by me" She moved a little to the side and patted to the now empty space, motioning for the blunette to sit next to her.
Natsuki went ahead and sat there, unable to control her moving, tapping feet.
"Stop it, Natsuki" Shizuru reprimanded, Natsuki's tapping that was moving the bed.
"Ah! Hello again, Shizuru-san, Natsuki-san" Hiroki, Shizuru's doctor, greeted the pair once he had stepped inside the room, then closed the door behind him.
Natsuki quickly stood, but Shizuru pulled her down again, making her sit down once more.
"Hello, Hiroki-han" Shizuru warmly smiled at the man.
"Hi" Was all the nervous blunette could say.
"How's my favorite patient feeling today?" Hiroki asked, grabbing Shizuru's chart and opening it. He was checking the notes that the nurse had written down when she was checking Shizuru's vitals earlier. Weight, blood pressure, etc.
"She's feeling fine" Natsuki replied for her, "But we found a little blood in her pee yesterday" She was nervous about their baby, hoping that the baby was okay. "Not a lot, j-just a little bit of blood"
"I see... Don't worry about that, it happens sometimes with the hormonal changes" Hiroki smiled at both women, trying to reassure them. "We'll run some tests, but I assure you, it's more common than you think" Then added, "Anything else?"
"And she's been getting a lot of headaches these past two weeks" Natsuki replied again, not giving Shizuru a chance to answer.
"Okay, anything else?" He stared at the brunette, it seemed like she wanted to speak, but her wife wouldn't let her.
Natsuki stood from the bed. Her hand reached for her pocket, taking out the notes she had written down last night while they were in bed, while the brunette was deep asleep. She made a list of things they should talk to the doctor about when they saw him today. "She's got these small, dark spots on her belly that weren't there before..." Natsuki softly continued.
"Alright, anything else?"
"And-"
But Shizuru interrupted the girl, annoyed Kyoto-ben finally making it's presence known in the room, "Natsuki, get out!"
"And she's mean to me" Natsuki muttered, narrowing her eyes at the woman. That wasn't an item on the list though.
Hiroki laughed at this. "Okay, let me take a look at that list of yours" He took the offered piece of paper from the Emerald eyed woman. He glanced at it, silently going down the list one by one, "This is all common, there's nothing to worry about" He said to both women, this seemed to have calmed the blunette.
Natsuki nervously cleared her throat, "E-Even the last one?" She shyly asked.
"Even the last one" Hiroki confirmed after looking at the note again. "There are some women who don't have it at all during pregnancy, it depends on the mood, really" He then tried to soothe her, "But don't worry, Natsuki-san, her sexual appetite will return. Just try not to irritate her, maybe then she'll be in the mood to be intimate"
Natsuki looked at the brunette,
And Shizuru rolled her eyes at her, annoyed at her. She couldn't believe she asked her doctor about this.
"Alright, time for the fun part" Hiroki said, walking over to the ultrasound machine.
Natsuki's heart couldn't pound any harder against her chest in excitement. She went ahead and sat back down next to the brunette, lovingly holding her hand.
"Kannin na for my moodiness, Natsuki" Shizuru whispered to her, "I think I'm a little frustrated with the nausea and headaches" looking at her in the eyes and squeezing her hand. Showing her she really means it.
"And I'm sorry I irritate you so much" Natsuki replied, "I'll try my best not to make you upset, to understand what you're going through. I promise" Leaning closer to her, placing a soft kiss on her cheek, then her lips.
"Are we ready?" Hiroki asked both women once he had set up the machine. He had the gel in hand, ready to apply it to Shizuru's belly. When both women happily nodded, he continued, "Alright, let's take a look at your baby"
Shizuru raised her shirt and lowered her skirt a little, belly now coming into full view. It was rather small, just a small bump, but that was expected at three months.
"Alright, lets see..."
Natsuki squeezed Shizuru's hand, unable to contain her happiness, her grin. She brought that hand to her lips, gave it a gentle kiss, and mouthed 'I love you so much' to the love of her life. Leaning in for another brush of lips.
"Oh boy..."
They heard the man say, so both women looked at his direction. At his strange expression.
"We're having a boy?" Natsuki asked, totally excited by the news.
"Ie, Natsuki, it's still too early to tell" Shizuru replied, propping herself up just a little to see better, an eyebrow now raising because of what she was seeing on the screen. She looked at the screen intently, intently, intently, "Ara?"
"Nani?" Natsuki excitedly replied, wide smile on her lips. She was looking at the screen as well but not really following. She wasn't sure what she was looking at, was the baby even there?
"Ara? Ara?"
"Nani, nani?" Natsuki once again excitedly asked.
"Natsuki" Shizuru said, now staring at the blunette. "We're going to need a bigger house"
Fin
Thanks for Reading!
I'm feeling a bit anxious to end this fic to tell the truth. But everything must come to an end, right?
My poor ShizNat have gone through a lot in this fic, I'm glad they have a happy ending.
I'm also glad I sort of took a long hiatus. Honestly, I think the story would've turn out a lot different had I not taken a long break. I think it would've gone horribly wrong lol. Now I have a different perspective, since I'm older.
My only consolation is that I might continue it to the next stage (one more season, probably 5-10 chapters long) Not now, I, like Shizuru, have neglected a lot of my work lol. When the creative process hits, you don't want to stop. But I have to now, I have a lot of important deadlines coming up.
I want to thank everyone who took the time to read this. I know it was very frustrating at times.
I will write an epilogue next, a very short one, I have some ideas so it'll be up in a couple of days.
Again, thank you all so much for the reviews/comments, and for sticking around this long.
Hope you guys liked the ending (I personally loved it)
