Chii/Hideki ~Human Urges~

Chapter Two ~Falling Apart~

Hideki opened the door to his apartment, a frown still etched across his lips. His thoughts were still centered on Chii and whether or not she could feel... certain things. He blinked, and then cried out with joyful surprise as he was once again tackled by his persocom. "Hideki is home," Chii exclaimed happily, nuzzling her face into his shoulder.

He smiled, sitting up, and wrapped his arms around her waist. "Yep, I'm home, Chii." He smiled more as he said this, kissing the side of her cheek. He was still astonished to how real his persocom felt. Her skin was as soft as any human girl's was, her hair was long and felt like silk, and her eyes were bright and alive, shining the soft amber that touched his heart. "Oh, Chii..." He nuzzled his face into her neck, kissing along the skin softly.

Chii blinked, tilting her head curiously as she pressed her hands to Hideki's shoulders, leaning back to look at him. Her expression was as curious and innocent as a child's as she asked him, "What is Hideki doing to Chii? Hideki is kissing Chii's neck, why?" She smiled all the while though, not knowing the silent torment Hideki, himself, was in.

'Oh god, Hideki, what the hell are you doing, man! You can't do this with Chii!' His mind screamed at him as the lower region of his body came to life once more. But, Hideki was beyond thinking at the current moment as she smiled her sweet smile to him. He leaned his head forward and pressed his lips to hers'. Chii blinked in surprise, but seeing as this seemingly made Hideki happy, she closed her eyes and leaned into him.

"Oh, Chii... you taste so sweet." He smiled, running his tongue along the seam of her lips, before slipping it in between, turning their gentle kiss into a heavier one. He slipped his tongue along hers', feeling her move hers' against his almost shyly, as though she did not know what to do. And she didn't.

Hideki's eyes widened as he realized what he was doing and his hands stilled on her hips. He continued to kiss her for a moment more while mentally screaming at himself more and more, 'Shit, Hideki! You were going to do it, weren't you! Shit, shit, shit!' He was cursing himself over and over as he slowly pulled away, breaking the kiss with exquisite slowness. He looked upon her face and she opened her eyes with an upward sweep of her lashes.

"Hideki is okay?" Chii tilted her head curiously again, her white hair slipping over a shoulder, spilling across the both of them. She looked worried, he noticed. Her brows crunched together downwards, and did an upside down arch as she looked at him. Her lips parted as she awaited his answer, hoping nothing was wrong with him. Innocent, she was way too innocent.

He managed a nod, lifting her somewhat difficultly off of his lap and setting her onto the floor next to him. He closed the door with his hand and sat up fully, looking to Chii as she drew her knees up under her. His eyes looked over her slowly, now registering that she was wearing her nighty-shirt and nothing else. The ache in his body became worse, but he managed a strained smiled. "I'm fine, Chii, there's no reason to worry," he said, ruffling her hair playfully. She smiled cutely, giggling happily.

"C'mon, Chii, let's get ready for bed. I already ate and I have no school work tonight." He stood and moved, dropping his backpack onto the floor next to his makeshift desk. Chii nodded, smiling, and followed him over to their futon. Plopping down, Hideki worked on taking off his shoes, before dropping them onto the floor. He stripped off his shirt and decided to just sleep in his jeans.

He laid back on the futon, smiled, and opened his arms for Chii. She smiled, snuggling into his arms like she did every night. His hands brought the comforter up and over them as he closed his eyes. He pressed his lips to Chii's cheek one more time, whispering, "I love you, Chii." He smiled more as he felt Chii slowly, shyly; pressed her lips to his cheek. She closed her own eyes, smiling, "Chii loves Hideki too."

Then, the apartment settled into the usual silence as Hideki fell into the dark abyss that was sleep. Chii shut herself down for the night, feeling safe wrapped in the embrace of the one she loved. They both rested easily, but Hideki dreamed. Oh boy, did he dream.
