Author's Note: Hello people... I've returned... Okay, jokes aside, I'm
back with the much anticipated update to Ryu's Retirement... and this will
definitely put a lot of readers on edge. Chun-Li fans and Sakura fans,
gather around as I tell the short tale of Ryu's messed up social life...
and by the end of this chapter, one set of fans will be cheering and the
other set will be giving me hate mail... but hey, Trutenor was right.
"That's the way of the fanfic..." Besides, it's my fanfic! I can do
whatever I want to it! Now, let's go!
Chapter 10: First Kiss
What the heck was I thinking? Why did I decide to take these two to the movies? I don't even know why I decided to let those two arrange what they wanted to watch. I don't know... but something tells me that I'll regret it. All I really wanted to do was just take out my two close... 'friends' out, but this is just begging to end in disaster. Then again...
{...if you play your cards right...}
Ken, you're a lifesaver. Especially since I have to bone up and decide what to do with my relationship with Chun-Li... and how I'm feeling myself falling for Sakura ever second. I really have to plan this out... or else Chun-Li will not speak to me... Forget that. She'll kill both me and Sakura. She's not the stable woman I was accustomed to knowing. It was showing ever since the movie (some action/romance thing) started about 25 minutes ago when she immediately snuggled as close as she could to me and relaxed, practically holding my down in my chair. Sakura, on the other hand, was just enjoying herself, eating her refreshments and drinking her soda once every minute or so. At times I felt as if all I could do was stare at the young woman, who wasn't paying either me or Chun-Li any mind. It was DEFINATELY weird...
As the movie drove on, which only Sakura was really watching while Chun-Li started to... 'flirt', I think the word was, with me, I found myself making Chun-Li more comfortable. Weird. Why do I keep switching from Sakura to Chun-Li? I didn't even mean to wrap my left arm around her back and pull her to my side. It was instinct. I mean... it just happened. I guess I'm just being a gentleman even though inside I'm trying to sort out my emotions. What the heck was I going to do?
"Ryu..." Chun-Li whispered at one point. "Thanks... I'm really glad you... took me out. That's really sweet of you."
"You're welcome," I answered back, giving a smile while forcing myself to get something out of this movie. Just then I got a tap on my right shoulder (curse me sitting in the middle of two women that I'm... involved with) and Sakura whispered in my ear.
"Ryu. I'm heading to the little girl's room. Be right back, 'kay?"
I nodded and she got up and quickly made her way up the aisle. I felt Chun- Li's head rise up and look behind her, seeing if Sakura had left and turned back, smiling.
"Great... she's gone," I heard her whisper to herself. I then felt her tap on my shoulder, I looked to her direction... and... and...
Chun-Li kissed me.
I sat there, too surprised and shocked to move or push her away. All I did was let out a small cry of protest but I let my instincts shut me up and go with the flow. After about a few moments, she broke it and stared at me with puppy eyes. I was totally off guard for that. That's the same look Sakura gave me when she asked me to be her sensei years back... only this time I couldn't resist them.
"I'm SO happy I got you to myself..."
I let out a quiet chuckle and we lay back for about a 4 minutes, watching the movie again (which was definitely second priority to out predicament). Sakura came back after the 4th minute and as she sat down, Chun-Li whispered, "I'll be back... Don't go anywhere."
"I'm not," I reassured and off she was. I then sat back. At least Sakura said that she wasn't interested in me. I didn't have to worry about her... or at least, that's what I thought. After about 15 seconds, I felt Sakura move up close to me, still looking forward, but she then leaned forward and whispered in my ear.
"You know... I saw you and Chun-Li kiss... and... I think you're a bit nervous, ne?"
A bit? I was really nervous. I'm on a date with the Chinese woman it seems with a Japanese schoolgirl giving me tips. It was really awkward...
"I AM nervous, Sakura," I replied back. She then leaned forward so that her lips were right next to my ear and said, "Well, how about I ease that tension..."
In an instant, at the same time that I looked to face her, she pulled a Chun-Li and kissed me, right on the lips that Chun-Li had did about 5 minutes ago. This time I didn't protest. I let her do that... but her kiss was... different. She... slid her tongue into my mouth and started to play around in there... I tell you, I've NEVER had something like that happen, nor did I feel a slight shock before. Quickly she broke it and started to blush slightly, her voice a bit uneasy.
"Now... that's how you do a... real kiss, Ryu..."
Now things were getting weird. I could have sworn that Sakura said that she wasn't interested in me... but that kiss turned everything around. I think she must have been planning that all along... and I liked it. Sakura then sat back, a smile on her face, but let her head rest on my shoulder.
"Now, Ryu... I just hope that you don't... forget that, okay?"
"S-sure, Sakura..." I stuttered, just as I looked to my left and saw Chun- Li stare at me from the aisle. Oh, crap... PLEASE don't tell me she saw that. It would have probably killed her heart... instead of just breaking it. A slight frown formed on her face... then it turned into a smile... A slightly evil smile... As she made her way over to me, I could have sworn that she either didn't see that kiss or she did... and didn't want to let herself go all out on me. She sat down in her seat to my left... and mimicked Sakura, putting her head on my left shoulder and sighed. Suddenly, both girls spoke at the same time...\par
"I love you, Ryu," was Chun-Li's quote.
"Don't forget... Ryu," was Sakura's.
I think that I was better off fighting Sagat...
---- ----
And I thought things were was weird as it got in the movie theatre, I was really in for it AFTER the movie was over an hour and a half later. As I started to leave out...
"Ryu, hold on," Chun-Li started. "Let me use the bathroom, really quick, okay? That was a long movie..."
"Yeah, me, too," Sakura chimed afterwards. I just nodded and both, oddly, walked side by side, as if they were discussing something. I felt something in my stomach churn, and normally when that happens I listen to it. Something was really wrong with that picture... Even so, I just sat back on a lobby chair and relaxed, watching some guys play the arcade games. About 10 minutes passed (thanks to the long woman's line for the restroom, and finally both girls came out, Chun-Li first and Sakura following about 3 seconds later. Chun-Li then came close and I got up, her grabbing my hand gleefully.
"You know, Ryu," she started, "how much I love you, right?"
I only nodded. At that moment, Sakura rushed to my left and grabbed my hand enthusiastically. I looked at her, slightly sweatdropping from the smile that she was giving me. What were these two doing?
"Well," Chun-Li continued, "I realized that... even though I'd love to have you to myself... Sakura and I are friends, you see..."
"...and I'm also like you a lot, Ryu," Sakura finished Chun-Li's quote. I was really getting nervous now. I could slightly sense where this was going... and I didn't like it.
"So..." Sakura smirked, "Chun-Li and I started talking, you see and..."
"...we came to an agreement," the Chinese woman finished, wearing her own mischievous grin. I twitched.
"Which is...?" I asked, almost telegraphing the response. Both Sakura and Chun-Li looked at one another, bubbling over in happiness, then looked at me. Their words almost killed me.
"We've decided to SHARE you, Ryu!!!!"
