The Me I Never Knew

What Happens From Here?

Three weeks later:

"Hey Ryo, can I ask you...well...an odd question?"

It was the strange tone that caught my attention as I stared at the beautiful city landscape. It sounded soft and hesitant, definitely not the brash side of Dee. I smiled at Dee's profile and turned to him.

"Sure, what is it?"

"The other night...are you positively sure that's what you wanted?"

That really caught me off-guard. I didn't expect him to remember that night when we did it in his apartment after the emotional encounter. My heart skipped a beat as I observed him. I could see the emotional conflict in his eyes and as so clearly seen in his tense body language. He turned to look at me, agitation was clearly marring his face.

"I mean...well...was it...was it regrettable for you? Because I don't, I mean I don't regret it and all. Be...because it was more than just...you know for me! I love you, Ryo. I truly and seriously love you and...shit...I mean this was your first time and you've been through so much that night that it must make you...I dunno, emotionally tired. Maybe it's one of those things that just come spontaneously and then living to regret it. I'd hate to think that I took advantage of you and forced you to do it when you were in your weakest moments and..eurgh..."

All this while, I listened to his stammering as his tone became varied in tone as his pitch synchronized with his impending worry and fear on his face. Mother was right, Dee often trouble voicing his thoughts coherently when they concerned with other people he cared for. My heart quickened its beating, Dee truly understood how I felt that night. He loved me and he was completely devoted to my feelings and concerns and he was treating them as his top priorities. He was serious after all and his sincerity truly touched me. I watched as Dee gritted his teeth struggling to continue what he was trying to voice out. He released a defeated sigh and waved a hand towards me.

"Arrgh...man...just forget it, forget what I said..."

Dee placed his hand on his face while he shook his head, muttering under his breath. The sight broke my heart. I couldn't leave him in the dark anymore, it was time I braved myself and spoke what my heart had finally mustered. I've accepted who I was and I couldn't be a coward to turn back into my old conventional self. That was the past. What I saw before me, this young, thick-headed, obnoxious yet the kindest, bravest and sweetest man I came across was my future I could be with.

"Then this is when I say that I love you too."

I could see Dee's green eyes widen at my confession, his hand slipped from his face and he stared at me in disbelief. Our eyes met, green to dark brown. I maintained eye contact, my hand stationary on the rail. My voice was surprisingly clear as crystal as words tumbled out of my mouth with clarity.

"And it wasn't just a thing that happened spontaneously and I don't regret it," I wanted to be sure that he heard me clearly, "I love you, Dee...more than anything else in the world."

Dee was still staring at me with the same disbelief on his face. I smiled softly at his blank expression and moved in front of him. His eyes were trained on me, watching my every movement, disbelief transforming into amazement as I found myself tugging onto his coat. All at once, I could finally revel in his masculine beauty illuminated by the street lights and highlighted and integrated in the city scenery.

"Dee? Mind if I can kiss you?"

The amazement on his face was lit by his trademark smirky smile that I found endearing. He pulled me closer as he straightened himself up to lean over me.

"Not at all..."

I slowly reached up to cup his face as our faces slowly closed the distance and our lips touched softly with each other. Instead of the electrifying buzzes from Dee's previous advanced kisses in the past, I felt a slow warmth building up in my body and through our souls. It definitely felt so much more. It was definitely more than passion and lust...it was love. We basked in its glow as we continued to kiss under the street light...

"Uhn...ahh..."

Our kiss was a long battle for dominance as I heard Dee slam the front door of my apartment, obviously trying to lead us back into my bedroom. Our clothes were in disarray and our shoes and jackets were on the floor and couch, left forgotten. I was momentarily in a quirk of fear at the mess we created but it was immediately pushed back into the dark recesses of my mind as Dee roughly continued to ravage me, the heat of his skin and the wetness of our tongues increasing the ever-growing passion between us.

"Dee, be careful! Don't trip...ooh...ahhh...on the rug and...aahh-hah...the door!"

I warned Dee to be careful where he was leading us. But through the heated kiss, I nearly got all my thoughts jumbled out...however, I didn't really care, much to my surprise, I was beginning to grow addicted to Dee's touches and kisses that made me crave for more. We eventually broke the kiss and our panting of our hot breaths warmed each other's face, fanning our desires. I found myself leaning on the dresser's edge with Dee trapping me and gazing at me with bright and intense green eyes. I briefly looked at our states, our tops were threatening to fall off our bodies and I could really see how well built my new koibito was. I recalled the afternoon kiss up on the roof earlier that afternoon, and I found myself comparing them. The thought of it made me giggle and Dee looked at me strangely.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I was just remembering the kiss you gave me on the roof that afternoon, it was totally different."

"Huh?"

"It was like...you were trying to forget me...you were really out of it..." I tried to point out.

"Hey! That was only because that I thought that you were..." Dee's ranting faded away. It made me concerned.

"What?"

"Oh screw it! Forget the misunderstandings, let's get the show on the road and I'll show you what I'll do to you!" Dee's enthusiasm jumped back on cue but his excitement got me in a frenzy as he tackled us onto the bed.

"ACK!" I squawked with indignity as we landed on the soft mattress among the comforter and the pillows. He pinned me underneath him and he had a strange expression on his face that made me even more uncomfortable yet aroused at the same time...weird and scary combination..."Hey...are you alright? Maybe you-"

"Enough, slave! I told you that we get over the misunderstandings!"

In a flash, I screamed as I instantly felt my pants and underwear disappear like magic, making me even MORE embarrassed. I tried to scramble away to not let him see my state but he locked behind me and grabbed my waist. My flush instantly darkened and the heat returned back into my body. I fidgeted as his fingers tried to search for my source of discomfort and painful arousal. I was at a disadvantage...a very very bad disadvantage...this was all too soon, too fast!

"W-Wait! Dee, I'm not ready!" I protested, trying in vain to get his hands away from my sensitive areas.

"You don't have to be!" Dee countered as I whimpered and wriggled, "And you have used all the timeouts for this half."

I shuddered and moaned softly when I felt his hand wrap around me in searing heat. I fidgeted against him as I felt him nuzzle against my neck and shoulder.

"Now it's time for fun, fun, fun!" Dee chanted to me as he wrapped his arms around mine.

I struggled to hear what Dee was saying and eventually nodded my head, kami-sama...the heat...so good and hot...need..."G-Got it...ahhh...what do you mean by 'fun, fun. fun'?

I shivered when Dee's tongue licked on my neck, leaving fiery sparkles in its path. The touch alone would've been enough to send me over the edge if only Dee wasn't...ah-hah! Oh Kami...I couldn't even get my mind straight..."I don't think we had it in our hearts to enjoy our first time, Ryo, don't you think?" Dee's voice was hot yet it was laced with regret. It made me faltar for a moment as I tried to catch my breathe as his hands teased and played with me to no end...

"Y-Yeah...ahhh...uhh...s-sorry..."

"Don't be, idiot..." Dee's soft voice fanned my already sensitive neck where Dee's tongue was...cold and hot...ah..."That's how it has to be."

I cried out as he gripped me harder. I could feel his fingertips on me, everywhere...ah-ha! uh!...cupping me below and caressing my stomach and my inner thighs...no...so hot everywhere...I tried to retain a hold on reality as I gripped onto his knees, my body twisted at very angle. I wanted the heat to go away yet I welcomed it...

"Sometimes, it's necessary to sort out your feelings, but now this is different, you have come to accept who and what you are...you sorted out your feelings..."

I managed a weak nod and whimper as Dee finally slowed down his ministrations. I leaned back against his chest, nuzzling my head underneath his chin as he continued me to massage me into such a hard state that I could burst with a single touch or lick. Before long, too weak to battle against the attacking sensations, I felt myself lowered onto the comforter on my side. My body was hot and sweaty and the building pool of desire on my lower body wasn't helping me at ease...it was so painful...yet so good. Dee's hands never left my lower body. I breathed heavily in anticipation and fear of what was to come...it looked like this round would be rough.,.

"B-But I...I'm not used to this...not yet...ahhh..." I moaned softly as the flames of desire licked my body.

"Don't worry, dude..." Dee's voice was low, predatory and dangerous... "I do..."

I shivered and twisted again when I felt a sudden dampness around...down there. I buried my head as far as I could onto the comforter, I tried to struggle but Dee held down my hips, preventing me from moving...the heat...ah...it's nearly too much!

"This is it..." Dee was right behind me, his pants were loud and domineering and hot. I felt his body on my back and I groaned at the wet contact, "Ready or not, here I come, I've finally know how you feel for me and I will not hold back...no reservations whatsoever..."

He leaned down to my ear and licked its globe, making me shiver...

"I love you Ryo and I'll promise you this: I may be thick-headed but I will NEVER lose you to another!"

His passionate plea was punctuated by AH! I felt a sudden pain down my backside as Dee made a swift entry...

"You see! I'm not holding back!"

My reply was only a loud groan. It was rough, yes...but kami...my koibito...

"Bliss...ah..." Dee carefully pulled me up to his chest and I found myself on fours as his arms went around me, "Absolute bliss..."

Before long, Dee and I were falling into another perfect synchronized rhythm as he continued to pleasure me in more ways than one as I basked in his heat, love and passion. Now I knew I could never turn back as we revelled in each other's heat and among our pants, groans, moans and whispered confessions...

"I'm thirsty, want me to get you something, Ryo?"

I raised an annoyed eyebrow with him as I buried myself on my bed, not liking the twinge of pain down my lower body, "Not to be offended but this is MY apartment, I could have offered something if you had asked and not the other way round."

"Hey, I was only trying to be nice. Offer as you like but at the rate, I don't think you can stand up or walk."

"And whose fault is that, baka!" the cheeky smile on his face makes me aggravated and annoyed...kuso!

"So what'll it be? H20?"

We fell into a deep silence and the annoyance towards him melted away into oblivion. I didn't feel thirsty anymore. I gazed at him with renewed love as I smiled at him and shook my head.

"Nothing for now..."

"Huh? What do you mean by that?" A blank stare was all I got and my smile grew wider.

Dee looked so kawaii when he looked like that, I clarified my answer.

"I meant that right now, I just want you to be beside me."

"Yup, that sounds good...but..." Dee suddenly pounced on me, making me squawk yet again, "How's about letting ME be on TOP?"

"Get off me, you ape! You're too heavy!" we wrestled on the bed for a while before we faced each other, "Although...I guess it doesn't really matter now...koibito..."

I watched Dee's eyes sparkle and soften. He cupped my face gently and combed my hair. I looped my arms around him and pulled him for another kiss which I initiated this time. He kissed back enthusiastically and I was truly feeling better than the previous years...

So I have reached out and took what I wanted, what I truly yearned for...to be loved by this man in my arms. It'll definitely be hard for Bikky to fully accept Dee as he was going to be a crucial part of my life but I thought that it would be okay given time. And getting Aunt Elena and Uncle Rick an explanation...that would come later...and the office...well, knowing Dee, he'd make a statement about it to ensure our relationship was clear...although I still needed time to get used to it, it's something that I was looking forward to...

But there was one thing certain...

From now on...I'll be the me I never knew...
