ANIMAL INSTINCT

I dug my nails deeper... harder.. marking my territory. Inside, I imagined it was you. I bruised and abused his perfect body, licked the blood from his wounded skin as I went deeper and deeper. But he didn't care. He never did.

I started stroking him - making sure that I tighten my grip as I went faster. He's almost there now, I could hear his moans getting louder and his pants speeding up. He was never the silent type, unlike you, and I admire him for that.

He gave a strangled cry out before everything went black and distant. It was the first time we made it together, since he usually finishes before me.

But today's special.

Oh, if you only knew how happy I was the moment we found out. I thought the time would never come when she would wilt and die in your heart and memory. I hated her, did you know that? I loathed her existence so much, because she was unfair to you.. to us. If I had known you would trip and fall into that quagmire, I should have beaten her to it. You deserve so much better.

He disentangled himself slowly from our awkward position and rested beside me. I looked at him and smiled, as if it was you I was looking at. "That was great, Gure-san."

A momentary sigh escaped his lips as he stared back at me. I hate him when he looks at me like that. I know he's trying to peel my skin off.

And he couldn't fool me either. I saw that strained look in his eyes. Just for a moment though, as he started laughing proudly. "Well, I have a reputation to keep." He said, grinning at me while giving me one of his hentai winks.

I didn't find it that amusing, but I laughed at his shamelessness anyway. He always made me smile.. made me feel as if my life was so happy.. so normal.

But only that.

I stood up and groped for my clothing but a strong hand held my wrist firmly. "So soon?" He asked, a look of hurt flashing briefly in his eyes.

There it was again. Ah, it could never fool me. I knew what it was, but completely ignored it. I didn't need to feel guilty. I was never his.

I gave him an uneasy smile and spoke. "Ah.. I have to go now. He's um, waiting for me."

Yes.. you're waiting for me, right?

"I see." I felt his grip loosening, but felt something tighten in my guts as well. I brushed it off as my body's reaction to the cold. I have always been susceptible to that. A hebi's life.

I heard him getting up and it immediately snapped me back to reality. I should never keep you waiting, or rather, me. I've been waiting for an eternity for this chance. He knew that. I knew that. Soon, you will too.

I headed for the door and gave him a quick glance back before leaving. He was sitting on the bed now, his eyes burning my cold back. "Say hi to Ha-san for me." I heard him call out before I closed the door with one, swift movement.

The silence was too deafening as I made my way out of his place. But I knew I shouldn't worry too much about it. Because he knew, and I knew.

And soon, Tori-san, you will know too.
