I was walking, alone, through the gardens when my target came into view. This was a sanctioned op, the first of its kind. Ever since Suruga and I had become one, I felt compelled to discuss these matters with her, despite her insistence that it wasn't necessary and that I needn't explain myself. She was still shy about disrupting the delicate balance that had been achieved here.

My target was alone, enjoying the unseasonably warm day most likely. She wore her typical outfit that exposed her midsection. Her short brown hair gleamed in the sunlight. My window of opportunity was approaching, I just had to be patient.

Nearly…

There!

I pounced, wrapping my hands around her and groping her breasts. She responded with a shriek and attempted to fight me off, but I held strong.

"Commander! You're awful! I'm a girl you know!" Repulse struggled, but stopped when she realized it wouldn't help her. I pulled her against me and kissed her neck, her body stiffening slightly at my sudden affection.

"What? I'm only returning the favor," I chuckled, letting her go. She spun around, but her lovely blue eyes held no malice. There was something else behind the curiosity, "Mm-hmm… though, I don't think I've ever kissed you before," she stayed a decent pace away from me, but I could see that she was processing this.

"You kissed my cheek before, remember? When you first told me you don't just cling defenselessly to anyone?" I held out my hand.

She took it, but her apprehension was obvious, "I did, yes… Commander, are you pulling a prank on me?" She looked unsure, so I pulled her closer to me. I wrapped my hands around her waist and pulled her against me, and she slowly did the same.

It was a nice hug, despite her obvious tension.

"Why would I pull a prank on you?" I smiled at her, and with her small smile came a little relaxation.

"I've been by your side for over a year, and you've never once showed any romantic interest. We've… joked around about it, but... tell me, why are you doing this?" Repulse bit her lip, unsure.

"What do you feel now?" I asked her, kissing her forehead gently.

"I um… I feel… different," her voice was becoming nervous.

"Different, as in… you think I see you as a lover?"

She looked up sharply, but shook her head after a moment's consideration, "No… but yes… it's confusing. I know you gave your ring to Suruga, and we all know about what happened there, so I'm…"

"So, you're saying I don't have another ring, and therefore I don't love you?" I played with her.

"Well, no. If you just wanted sex, you know I'd say yes, so this is something more. I know how you are though, why don't we just play? My heart is pounding and I just…"

"Repulse…" I begin.

"I don't know what to feel, we've been friends for so long and you rejected my advances and now…"

"Repulse, please…"

"I'm not special at all, I'm not built like those Sakura shipgirls, and I'm not proper and lovely like the other Royal Navy shipgirls…"

"I love you, Repulse." I finally get to speak, yet all I get is a stunned silence. I felt her arms tighten around me.

"Commander, I… say it again, please?" Her voice wavered, her usual confidence breaking.

"I love you," I repeated.

"I love you too!" She cried out and pulled my head down to kiss me.

Her lips were sweet, their softness belying the tender heart of their owner. Our embrace lasted a long time as we understood our feelings. When we finally broke apart, she had a wide smile on her face, and tears of joy in her eyes.

"You ok?" I asked her, and she nodded, smiling still.

"I've been waiting for this moment… I'm so happy!" She threw herself into my arms again, and I held her tightly. I could feel her intense love, and I was happy to reciprocate it.

"Commander, I know how much you like the hot springs, why don't we go together?"

When Repulse had asked, I agreed quickly. Akashi's upgrades and the private baths were to die for. Not to mention I'd get to be there, alone, with my soon to be shipfu. I was waiting until later to present the ring to her and didn't want her to know I had bought two instead of one.

We were in the changing room when she suddenly went red in the face and asked me to turn around.

"What? Why?" I asked her, poking her navel.

"I'm still a girl, and I n-need to be a little modest… hey!" she giggled, and I held her against a wall, her arms above her head.

"Modesty? You really are a Royal Navy girl…" I smiled and focused my attention on her armpit. I licked it gently, running my tongue along it and savoring the taste of her sweat combined with the smell of her musk.

"You can't be serious… haa… you're so lewd… Mmm… Commander, come on!" she squirmed, but couldn't escape my wrath as I attacked her armpit. Her scent was turning me on something fierce, but I backed away when she was getting too annoyed.

"You smell amazing, you know that?" I look her up and down, and her blush deepened.

"Please! Turn around!" She demanded, and I did, chuckling to myself.

"Ok, now you can look," she said a few minutes later. She came out with merely a towel wrapped around her waist. Her wide hips and perfect navel were front and center, and her breasts were well-shaped, ample yet perky without being oversized.

"Repulse, you look incredible!" I made to step forward, but she held out a hand.

"You change first, I'll be waiting in the bath!" She spun on her heel and walked into the private baths. I quickly changed and made my way out there as well to find a towel left in the middle of the passageway.

Wait, how was I to know what bath she was in? I opened the first door on my right, just a bit, and saw Akagi and Kaga relaxing in the bath, their eyes closed. I quietly shut the door, for obvious reasons.

The door to my left, then. Just a crack. In the bath was Bismarck. Facing the door. Staring right at me with murder in her eyes. I slowly shut the door, but didn't understand, especially after what had happened recently.

Next door was fun. Cleveland and Helena were going to town on each other. Neither noticed, but I could feel my excitement building. They were such naughty shipfus. I loved it.

The next door I opened was empty until head after head popped out of the bath and six of the subs showed themselves.

"I'm a shaaaark. I'll bit youuuu," U-110 got out of the bath and walked towards the door. Her small form was cute, yet somehow well developed. She looked at me, looked at the bulge in my towel, and bit my finger. I yanked my hand back, and she slammed the door shut.

"Over here!" I turned to see Repulse close the last door on the right and made my way to her posthaste. She had slipped into a bath covered in lilies, and I took off my towel, exposing my erection.

"Fun little game, that," I remarked as I slipped in next to her.

"Thought you'd enjoy it. This is pretty relaxing, I have to admit," Repulse said, wrapping one hand around my manhood.

"Ahh… yeah… though it's the company more than the atmosphere," I remark, reaching over and using a single finger to tease her clit.

"Mm-hmm… normally a bath isn't this… haa… pleasurable…" Her voice was growing husky. She teased the tip with one finger every few seconds.

I moved my hand, putting it around her shoulder and groping her breast. She sighed as I gently rubbed her nipple and turned her head to regard me, her eyes bright.

"Commander, I thought… I thought you'd be into softer girls…" She gave me a soft smile and we kissed.

"You seem plenty soft to me, but I bet you're absolutely wild when it counts," I respond, and she giggled. I kissed her, then her jawline, her neck, inhaling her scent. She increased her pace, her hand rapidly stroking me until it was too much to bear.

A tremor shook me as I came, my seed arcing above the water and slowly draining into the other end. The filters would not handle this well.

"Already? Well, you're still hard so…" She got up and bent over the ledge, her hands braced against the edge of the pool.

I pushed against her, my member resting on her shapely rump. Placing my hands on her ample hips, I slowly moved back until I was pressing against her slit.

"So much resistance…" I said, pressing against her.

"W-well, it's my first time so…" her breathing quickened, but she kept her composure.

"I'll be gentle," I reassured her, then entered her slowly. I felt her break against my member, her small cry and a trickle of blood a symbol to her lost virginity. I continued slowly.

"So big… I didn't think it'd feel so big inside me… you can move more, I'll be ok," she turned her head and smiled, though I could see a single tear rolling down her cheek.

"Repulse…" I said, my voice becoming concerned. I got ready to pull out of her.

"N-no! I'm happy it was you, Commander!" She pushed back against me, and suddenly the full length of my member was in her, pressed against her cervix. I gasped, her virgin womanhood unbelievably tight.

I squeezed her ass, and thrust slowly, admiring her athletic form. Her skin glowed and was soft, yet I could see her wiry muscles beneath it.

"You're so fucking sexy!" I growled, and she giggled.

"I'm glad you find me so pleasing, you're not so bad yourself!"

Well, I'll take it.

As she relaxed my pace increased, and her moans were surely clear throughout the baths by this point. Yet I relished it, it turned me on to hear her enjoying herself so thoroughly.

Yet it wasn't long until I felt my climax coming on, "I'm gonna cum!" I cried out.

"Me too! I've been waiting! I want to feel it inside of me, Commander!" Repulse pushed back against me rapidly until I pulled her against me and released my seed inside of her. She cried out, and I felt her squeeze tightly against me as she reached her own climax. I stayed inside of her until the last shot of cum left me, then pulled out.

She collapsed against the side of the pool and moaned softly as my seed dripped out of her and into the water.

I admired the view, noting her tight, perfect anus. I sat down next to her, and she turned around slowly, sinking back into the hot springs and leaning against me. I looked down at her, her breasts perky and firm.

"You keep staring at me… am I really that attractive, Commander?"

"Of course! You really don't understand just how sexy, how perfect you are?"

She shook her head, "Compared to so many others… I'm not as elegant, and I don't dress nearly as well as the other Royal girls but…"

I laughed, "Do you think that matters? You already said something to that effect before… Plus, I like it when your clothes are off!"

She laughed and drew herself tighter to me. We sat like this for a while as I admired her pretty jawline.

The sun was already high in the sky by the time I opened my eyes. Repulse was still asleep, snoring softly next to me. She had cast the covers from her waist up, and for a moment I was taken, once again, by her firm breasts and perfect form. She had such a pretty face.

A small groan escaped her as she opened her eyes and looked at me, "I hate waking up…" she sighed.

"Good morning to you too," I said, smiling at her.

"I love you," she said, and sat up, hugging me.

"I love you too, Repulse," I held her tightly.

"Last night was incredible," she breathed into my ear, "but I think you wanted something more, something you didn't want to ask for…"

She broke the embrace and turned around, raising her ass into the air and spreading her legs, reaching back and spreading apart her cheeks.

Exposing her perfect, untouched, lovely anus. It was a lightly pulsating flower and I couldn't take my eyes off it. I drifted towards it, my tongue leaping out to caress it as soon as it could.

She was delicious, and I dove my tongue into her relentlessly, savoring her taste.

"Commander! You really are something else, it feels so good, I never imagined this would feel so good…" She moaned in pleasure as I gave in to my lust.

I inhaled deeply, and lost myself in her musk.

…

…

C-commander…

Mmm… Commander…

"Commander!" I stopped and looked up. Repulse was panting heavily. She turned around and spread her legs, "You were down there so long… so… long…"

"Well, you taste incredible, who am I not to indulge?" I positioned myself as she raised her hips, her wet, gleaming anus tantalizing. She was inviting me.

"You want to fuck my ass that badly, Commander?" Her voice turned husky.

"Yeah, I do," I pressed my member against her anus and pushed slowly. She moaned as my head spread her open.

"It's big… it's big… in my ass… it feels good! Fuck me harder!" She demanded, and I pushed deep into her.

"You like that? You really are a Royal Navy girl then… fuck, you're so tight!" I thrust into her rectum, admiring my member buried inside of her. Her slit was leaking as her arousal grew and adding lubrication to our lovemaking.

"Heh… Wales… I knew she had a thing for it, but I didn't think I would…" I looked up to see her smiling, a wry expression on her face. I thrust into her, turning into one of lust. Her lips parted slightly as I grabbed her hips to give me better leverage.

I sped up, and her moans reached a new pitch as I felt my climax quickly approaching. I grabbed a handful of her breast as I thrust deep into her. My body shook as I came, my seed filling her rectum as she squirmed in pleasure. I quickly pulled out of her, watching my seed drip from her.

I admired the gape I left in her anus, my ardor rising once again.

"Done already?" Repulse looked surprised, but I shook my head.

"Turn around," I told her, and she did. I reentered her and thrust rapidly.

She lay prone beneath me as I fucked her relentlessly, her hands gripping the sheets as her rectum gripped me with each thrust.

I came again and again, my seed overflowing from her rectum, yet I couldn't stop.

By the time we finished, the sun was low on the horizon, and our sweating bodies lay tangled together.

"Commander… my god… I came so much…" Repulse's breathing was rapid and shallow. I could hardly move.

"Should we take a shower?" I asked her, my grin belying my true intentions.

"All right… but you owe me dinner!"

There are few things hotter than pushing a girl against the shower as you take her ass.

Anyway, we eventually made our way to a table set for two in a quiet part of the port, overlooking the ocean.

"I don't know why you insisted on me wearing this," she said, pulling at her usual attire.

"Because I like it," I said, giving her a wink.

"Doesn't the sex usually come after the romantic dinner?" She carved a piece of filet off and popped it into her mouth.

"Well, I couldn't turn down your invitation…" I savored my dinner. Believe it or not, this wasn't common, and it certainly wasn't free.

"Yeah, that is fair, though I didn't realize you'd turn into such a beast. You never trust what you hear until you experience it for yourself… how did Unicorn manage?" She met my eyes.

"So, you heard about that?" I felt my face flush.

"Why are you blushing? It's no secret… most of the girls fall prey to your whims, anyway. I enjoyed it, and they all did too. You're gentle at first, which helps a lot," she explained, and I relaxed.

We finished our meal, and I grabbed the bottle of champagne and we went over to sit at the edge of the pier, our feet dangling below. I pulled out the promise ring I had been saving and turned to her, opening the box.

"Repulse, would you marry me?" I ask her, and her surprise was genuine as she failed to speak. I continued, "I love you, and I have for a while. You've always been here for me, almost from day one."

"Yes, of course yes!" she cried out, and presented her hand. I placed the ring on her finger, and then she kissed me deeply. I threw my arms around her and pulled her tightly against me.

When we finally broke apart, I saw her cheeks stained with her tears. I gently wiped them away.

"Hey…" I said, but she shook her head.

"I'm… I'm so happy! I love you so much, but I thought you'd never ask…"

I hugged her again and produced the bottle of champagne, handing it to her.

We drank from the bottle, chatting about nothing and just enjoying the other's company.

We didn't get much sleep tonight, either.

Just a short chapter, sorry things have been a bit hectic and I have had little time to write. I've always really liked Repulse, so I decided to finally marry her. She seems to fit the archetype of the 'girl next door,' and that's always appealed to me in a major way.

I hope you enjoyed it and please look forward to more! I mean, Friedrich was just finished and Azuma is well on the way into the port so… They certainly deserve their own chapter!
