Nuriko happily went out of Taiitsukun's palace. Though Taiitsukun may not be present, Nuriko kept on visiting, for one wish to come true. "You're getting too much attached to Taiitsukun lately. Did you fall in love with her, Nuriko?" Tasuki walked beside him with his hand on his head. He didn't say anything. "C'mon, you gotta tell me something right away! It's not a big secret isn't it? And we're best friends, aren't we, Nuriko?" He asked. Nuriko just kept his mouth shut. They stopped in front of the room of Hotohori. "Come 'ere." Nuriko spread his arms. Tasuki rolled his eyes as Nuriko gave him his first hug. There's something different, some kind of gap between them. Is this Nuriko's love for Hotohori? Literally, there IS something bugging him between them. He looked down at Nuriko. He only smiled at him. He let go of Tasuki and sat on the wooden ledge. "What does that mean, Nuriko?" He worriedly looked at him. There's something about Nuriko's clothes.

"Have you grown fat, Nuriko?" He asked.

"I'm feeling fine." Nuriko replied.

"But answer me, have you grown fat? I haven't seen you eat lately." He said.

Nuriko stood up. "No I haven't." he calmly smiled at him. Tasuki looked at the chest part of his clothes. "Oh no. You couldn't have." He said. Nuriko gave Tasuki a light kiss on his cheek and whispered. "Thank you for being there for me." After that, she left Tasuki concerned. Damn! I didn't want that to happen. Tasuki shoot his fist on one of the posts in the garden pagoda. He saw Nuriko slowly walk to the door of the emperor's room.

Nuriko noticed a dim light open. The emperor couldn't be awake this time of night. She was wondering why. Her ears pressed the paper shutters, she could hear someone inside, and a voice of a woman she doesn't know. Then she hears Hotohori's voice groaning. Nuriko ran to the railing and covered her mouth. Her eyes wide and she was perspiring. Was she replaced so fast, or was she too slow? Nuriko's eyes sank to her sleeve and ran away.

"Nuriko!" Tasuki bumped onto her.

"I saw you crying and…"

"Oh Tasuki! I was too slow!" She sank her head on his chest.

"Y-you, oh never mind." He sighed and rolled his eyes.

"You only wasted your effort. You know, even if he knew you loved him, nothing beats you being a guy. He doesn't know how much time you spent your time to pray to Taiitskun." He finally told her. This only made her feel worse. She sank more and cried more. "I still love him Tasuki." She said.

"He'll only hurt you. Y-y-you can find someone else." He shivered.

"Someone who doesn't even know you've been a guy once." He told her.

Nuriko looked at him. Her eyes welled with tears. "Y-yeah. I guess you're right." Tasuki wrapped his arms around her. "Of course I am, I always am." He smiled. "No wonder I'm your best friend, 'cause I'm the best!" He scratched his head and laughed. Nuriko giggled. "For now, you're right. Good night, Tasuki." She left. Tasuki followed her with a stare and sighed. "Your efforts will not go to waste. Just you wait."

            Nuriko dug for something to wear in Miaka's backpack that she left. She looked at some undergarments and wore them; not knowing she should wear them with some clothes on. Brrr, it's cold in here. She hid behind the blankets and purred. When she was about to fall asleep, the door suddenly burst open. Nuriko sat up and covered herself immediately.

"TASUKI! WHY THE HELL DO YOU COME BARGING IN FOR?" She squealed.

"Heh, I just dropped by to say hi." He said.

"Hi." Nuriko said.

"Whoa, the rain must be really hard outside. Why don't you," Tasuki sat on the bed. "This place might be really cozy!" he said. Nuriko nervously laughed.

"You can hang your clothes over there and borrow mine." She told him.

"C'mon, you're joking, right? You're a GIRLLL, you know, the one with the,"

"OK, that's, heh, enough." She nervously laughed.

"Oh yeah! I forgot, you have guy clothes right?" He removed his clothes and hung them to dry.

"Would you mind? Tasuki, you're undressing in front of a woman!" Nuriko finally got mad.

"Oh sorry, I forgot." Tasuki laughed all the more.

"Are you drunk or something?" She asked.

"Me? Oh no. I just had a few shots a while ago." Tasuki sat on the bed again.

Nuriko closed her eyes and turned her back on him. She doesn't know what's happening right now but she might just send him…

"GET OUT OF MY ROOM, NOW!"

She threw Tasuki and his clothes in the cold rain.

            Hotohori walked along the corridor when he spotted Nuriko wading in the garden pond. Something's different with him. He looked at her closely. "Nuriko?" He called. Nuriko looked at him and simply smiled. "Nuriko?" He squinted. "Yes your majesty?" She stood up. "There's something in the way you look." He said. "Nothing Hotohori." She bluffed. Hotohori put his hands on her shoulders. "No, there is something." He slid his hands down. "Nuriko!" His eyes widened. "Y-you…" Nuriko looked away. "Yes I did." She croaked. Hotohori held her chin and looked at her eyes. "I understand, there's no stopping you." He told her. "This is too much. I didn't ask for this." He said. "But I love you." She started crying. "I love you so much." Hotohori embraced her. "Now you've proven yourself so much." He ran his hands on her back. "Meet me here tonight." He said.

            Nuriko and Tasuki were walking through the crowd of the city. "This is so selfish of him!" Tasuki scolded. "I mean, after he lost Miaka, he runs after all the girls he can find." He threw his arms around, careless of who's gonna get hit. "I thought he was choosy!" He said. "You're hitting everybody, Tasuki." Nuriko calmly said. "Nuriko, you should stop this, he's already broken your heart." He said. "As if Miaka didn't break yours." Nuriko calmly said. Tasuki blushed. "Hey! Leave that topic alone!" He yelled. "You don't care, do you?" Nuriko walked ahead while Tasuki looked at her. "Hey! Don't leave a cold shoulder on me. Why are you suddenly doing this to me? Is it because of Hotohori? I tell you, he'll keep on being a heartbreaker until you're all shattered." He said in defeat. Nuriko kept on walking. "Hey! I didn't tell you to leave me. Wait up!"

            Nuriko appeared as told. Hotohori was waiting. "I thought you wouldn't come." He smiled. "Why won't I?" Nuriko smiled. She stood in front of him. "Because of everything that Tasuki tells you." He kissed Nuriko. "I don't care what he says." She confessed. He slowly undressed her. "How about taking a bath together? Wouldn't that be much fun?" He asked. "Anything to make you happy." She said. Tasuki was watching in the same pagoda. "You wouldn't listen to me. Why wouldn't you?" He watched as they kissed in the garden pond. Tasuki, wouldn't you wish it were you? It was you in that pond with…"Hey! Tasuki, WHOA!" Chichiri saw. "Let's get outta here!" Tasuki pulled Chichiri away. "N-no! I gotta watch this!" He said. "WE GOTTA GO!" Tasuki pulled harder. "NO! I GOTTA WATCH! Damn! Nuriko's gorgeous!" He commented. Tasuki carried him and they scampered away.

            Nuriko opened the dim light to her room. She looked at the bed and saw Tasuki picking his tooth and leaning on the bedpost. "How's it with Hotohori-sama? I saw you were having a really grand time a while ago in the … hmm, where was that… oh, the garden pond." Nuriko glared at him.

"You were watching?" She went passed him.

"I couldn't help but look. He must be really eating your tongue out of your mouth." He grinned.

"Well, I don't mind." He said sarcastically.

"Taiitskun has given you really good ones. They look genuine!" He laughed.

"You stop that Tasuki." She told him.

"I forgot I shouldn't have the liberty to barge into this room because, first, of course, you're already a woman, second, the emperor is having serious intimacy with my best friend, oh and that's the third one, you're not!" Tasuki bit on the toothpick and put his hands on his head. "I think my job with you's done. I guess prince charming is going to help you with your problems. You don't need me for that right? Good night sweet Nuriko dreams. I mean, good night Nuriko, sweet dreams." He walked to the door then stopped. "Chichiri says you're gorgeous." He lifted his hand and waved goodbye.

            Early in the morning, Nuriko walked through the halls and passed by the dining area. "Your majesty, how many maids in waiting are you in favor of?" One of the elders asked him. "Only one." He said. "Houki." He told them. But what is that of Kourin sire? What is that of her? Hasn't she satisfied you? Rumors are going on around the city that you had her last night at the garden pond." Another elder said. Nuriko listened carefully. "I was… only giving her a chance to be loved. I worry so much about her, she's expected too much from me. I couldn't give her anything, but this adrenaline I've had every night. She's such a dear person to me and maybe I was able to help her." He confessed. Nuriko fell and was heard from the inside. The shutters open and the elders saw Nuriko on the floor. The floor was damp and Hotohori knew that she was listening. "I will talk to her." He stood and picked her. "You… pity… me." She cried. Her heart ached of anger and of sadness. "I didn't know. I shouldn't have said that." He said.

"Even if you don't, you still mean the same." Hotohori hugged her and she hit him.

"You don't care! You just don't!" She yelled.

"I do." Hotohori calmly told her.

"Then what was that, that thing you told them?" She asked.

"I…" Hotohori couldn't speak.

"You told them that you worry about me. You told them that I've expected too much from you. You told them that that was the only thing you can do to make me feel… loved. Do I look like somebody who hasn't been loved?" Her voice croaked and tears welled in Hotohori's throat. Why? Why? Why doesn't he feel the same? He has hurt her so much, yet he still doesn't feel the same. He hugged her tighter. I just can't, I'm sorry. He didn't tell her.

            That night, she lay in bed soaking wet with tears. Now she's alone, Tasuki left her, Hotohori betrayed her, Tamahome, he's with Miaka, Mitsukake, he doesn't care, Chichiri, well, still thinking of his girlfriend, Chiriku, nope, too young. "Thinking of leaving?" Tasuki knocked on the door. Nuriko jumped out of bed and rushed to him.

"Tasuki! Tasuki! Oh Tasuki!" She gladly flung her arms around his neck.

"Hey! Hey! Take it easy, you're choking me!" He said, smiling.

"You're not mad at me anymore?" Nuriko asked.

"Why would I? I knew he'd do that to you. I told you didn't I?" He said.

"Well, yeah." She bit her lower lip.

"So are we still best friends?" She asked.

"Actually, that's what I came here for." Tasuki scratched his head.

"For what?" Nuriko stepped back while Tasuki stepped forward.

"About…" They fell on the bed. "Being more than just friends." He said.

Nuriko looked at him. "What are you saying?" She still had her arms around his neck. He kissed her neck as they go higher in bed. "Ta-s-tas-uki." Nuriko moaned. His hand pulled the garter of her undergarment. "I'm for real Nuriko, I forgot about Miaka, now all I care about is tonight." He breathed harder on her neck. "Tasuki." Was her reply, her hand moved to the topmost button of his uniform and started prying on them. "Does he make you feel this way? Tel me. Does he?" He boasted. "You do much better." Nuriko giggled. He finally pulled it down and tore her other undergarment (a.k.a. sleeveless shirt Miaka was wearing in the cave of the sacred jewel.). "Careful! These are Miaka's." She said. "They're not hers anymore. You look good in them." His shirt was now off. Nuriko pushed him to her. He suckled on a nipple as Nuriko groaned. "Ouch! Tasuki not so hard." She said. "You're saying that and you're pulling me to you?" He said. Wind blew and the light was out. "Tasuki, I'm afraid of the dark." Nuriko hung onto him. "Oh, c'mon, it's better than everyone seeing us do it." He said. He suckled on another and Nuriko orgasmed. "Can't you do better than that?" Nuriko asked. "Shut up! We're only starting." He smiled at her, even though she could not see him. His lips landed on hers and they violently kissed around the bed. They started to sweat. The only noise they can make now is groaning and moaning. Senseless talk ended that moment. "Wow! Now I couldn't hear what they're doing. One of the servants commented in a whisper. "Wait." Tasuki hushed Nuriko. He burned the walls and drew the curtains of the bed. "Alright." When a while ago, he wasn't, now he was touching her, exploring every part of her body like he's never done before. Come to think of it, he hasn't. His fingers landed on her thighs, Nuriko prevented him from doing any rash moves. "No, not… please… not…" She said during intervals. "Why not? You can't do this when you're not coming right? You are coming and you can do it." He said. "I'm not used to it." She told him. "Alright, so you're telling me you're nervous." He said. "Yes." She croaked. "Oh!" In a second, he barged into her. "Still nervous?" He asked. Nuriko couldn't answer, but she had a light feeling about what Tasuki did to her. "What did you do?" She asked. "We're one baby! The tie that binds." Nuriko blankly stared where she had an idea where Tasuki is, on top of her. She feels him slowly leaving her body and lays his head on her chest. "I'm all yours. No one else's." Tasuki whispered. "I could hear you heart beat." He told her. That's exactly what she feels His hand became naughty once more. "Now I'm free to do whatever I like." He ran his hand down her thigh and rubbed her. She feels so weak, she's lost control of herself, but she knows that she's loosing herself to the right person. Tasuki kisses her more. She came to him. "Hey! That's good! You're responding." He changed his position. His left hand pinned her right arm down and his right landed between her thighs. It moved wildly as it searched for what it wanted. He found a soft spot. He touched her. "OOOOOH!" She moaned. His fingers penetrated her, she orgasmed more. Her groans grew louder, her sighs warmer, her movements flowed, and she's opening up. Hotohori didn't give anything to her. He was the one giving everything she wanted. Nuriko orgasmed, groaned, moaned louder as his fingers slowly entered her. I love what I'm doing.  Tasuki told himself. Nuriko's left hand held his wrist. He stopped and looked at her. "Push… harder." She said. Tasuki grinned and with the help of Nuriko, he pushed his fingers harder until it couldn't enter her anymore. He kept kissing her until they grew tired of it. "Nuriko, its time for you to help me up." Tasuki told her. She spread her legs apart. "You really know what I mean." Tasuki said. His grip on her right arm loosened as she felt him slowly breathe on her stomach. "This, you can't do in a pond. Darn fishes would go between and I hate it." He lapped on her part. She could feel him breathe and she felt as if he's burning her. She finally knew that Tasuki learned she wasn't able to feel this way ever. Her hips moved. Her clit softened more; he found it delicious of her to give herself completely. He wouldn't fail her. Tasuki finished in no time. She could hear him breathe heavily. "It's time for you to take a rest." She sat on top of him. She felt him grin amidst the darkness, maybe what he said was true they're already one. She directly went down and played with it. "I know you don't know how to do this one." Tasuki told her. "As long as you can, keep me satisfied." Tasuki ran his hand down her hair. Though nothing was done, Tasuki's muscles twitched. This is how excited he is about Nuriko. Thank God for Taiitskun! Nuriko tried her best to make Tasuki groan. Tasuki doesn't so she bit him." Hey! I was waiting for that." Tasuki told her. Nuriko obviously smiled in the dark and bit harder. Tasuki's groans grew louder, louder than hers did. He was not new in this experience, but he seems to be enjoying every one of his intimate pleasures. Nuriko finally giggled. "It's all over." She said. "No, not yet. Not until you give me what I want from you." He said. "What exactly do you want from me?" Nuriko asked. "An heir." He said. He positioned himself on top of her and slowly pushed himself into her. "Do you love me Nuriko?" He asked. She screamed as he entered. Her heart throbbed, joy spilled, her hips moved, helping him. "YES! YES!" Tasuki stopped and saw Nuriko fast asleep. He removed the wisp of hair from her tired face. He lay beside her and looked at her. "Damn you're beautiful. I thank God for giving you to me." He sat up and started dressing up. "Don't worry, I'll come back tomorrow. Wait for me… love." He picked his bag up and sat on the bed. He watched her sleep for a while then bent and kissed her long enough. His tears fell on her, his tears of mixed emotions. Glad because finally he had her, mad at himself for not being enough for her, sad because he isn't what she wants, surprised at her response, excited because sooner or later, she's going to bear him a child. "I love you Nuriko. You know I wouldn't do this if I don't." He stood up and left her sleeping. "Tas-uki. Don't leave." She mumbled. Tasuki looked back and smiled. "I won't don't worry." He walked out of the room and went out of the city screaming, "I'm gonna have a son! I'm gonna have a son!"
