Night of the Falling Stars

Chapter II

"Hey everyone! Dinner is ready!"

Sasami loved having meals with the whole gang. It was a time she treasured because everyone would be together and the fighting between Ayeka and Ryoko was always very amusing. Today however, she felt that things were different.

Ryoko and Ayeka were sitting next to Tenchi but neither of them were talking, they seemed lost in thought. Washu only smiled. Tenchi, was frankly worried about them. Mihoshi thankfully broke the tense mood "Hey you know what! We should all go outside and see the stars tonight!" Sasami's eyes lit up "Why do you say that Mihoshi?" "Well the newspaper I was reading-" Washu interrupted "Ah yes, at approximately twelve hundred hours there will be a meteor shower, it should provide for quite a show!" "Great idea Mihoshi!" Tenchi remarked. "Ehehe I'll bring the Sake." "Miss Ryoko are eating and drinking the only things you think about!" "No actually you forgot-" She whispered into Ayeka's ear; and Ayeka blushed vigorously." "Mi- Miss Ryoko!" "Hahaha how I love rattling your cage." Ryoko winked at her and teleported out of view. Ayeka composed herself and walked out the Tenchi home to join the rest.

An hour or two passed and much of the adults haddrank more than they should have, save Tenchi and Sasami of course. Washu's Karaoke system was currently testing Mihoshi's talent and when everyone clapped the machine laughed and gave her such a low grade that she started crying. "Ha! You call that singing lemme have a go at this." "No Ryoko! No one wants to hearz a drun, your, a, drunk mumbl, singing!" Ryoko arched an eyebrow "Haha look at yourself Ayeka! Poor little girl, did you drink too much?" "Why don't you two shut up and one of you get up there!" Washu exclaimed. "Gimmie it Princess, hand me that Mike" "No!" "Ouch! Why you little-" Washu tensed up "No! Watch out your going to fall on my super karao-" The two girls fell off the small stage and toppled the machine with them. Ryoko landed right on top of Ayeka in a very bad position. With their faces inches apart they snapped out of their drunken state and looked into each others eyes to understand what was happening. Blushing furiously they both got up. Nobuyuki was in the process of getting his video camera when Washu threw a hammer at him. Trying desperately to fix her prized machine she yelled at the girls to go take a walk to clear their heads. "Should I go with them Little Washu?" "No Tenchi you stay here, I need your help." As Ryoko and Ayeka walked, more yelling by Washu and giggling by Mihoshi was heard.

For what seemed like the longest time the two girls said nothing. Then all of a sudden they both blurted out an apology. "Huh?" "Oh, sorry" 'What is wrong with me? Why do I feel so weird around Ayeka' Ayeka thought the same thing. They ended up near the tree Funaho. Ryoko sat on one of its massive roots and placed her fingers on the water's surface. Ayeka sat also, a little ways apart. "Sorry if I've been acting weird lately Ryoko, I just feel things have changed." "Shut up there's nothing to be sorry about and anyway this is good for me right? I have Tenchi all to myself now." 'Then why do I feel like this. Oh god I couldn't have feelings for- goddess Ryoko what the heck are you thinking..' "Look!" Ayeka pointed up to the sky. Shooting stars, make a wish!" "Hmpf I don't believe i-" "Do it!" Ryoko closed her eyes and tried to think of something, like Tenchi but, all she could picture was Ayeka. Ayeka thought 'I need to feel love, real love, and I want to be loved in return.' They both opened their eyes and watched the last of the meteors fly by. Ryoko glanced at Ayeka and was in awe of her beauty, her beautiful ruby eyes reflected the night sky. Ryoko tried to silence these thoughts but she gave up and let herself enjoy this moment. Ayeka turned unexpectedly and caught her staring. Ryoko quickly turned her head and blushed. She stood up, "Well, um that's enough for me I think I'll" "Yes I will go as well." As she started to get up she slipped on the wet surface and let out a yelp but Ryoko stopped her fall and caught her in time. Ayeka opened her eyes and with much hesitation brushed her lips against Ryoko's. Ryoko was caught completely off guard and nearly dropped her but set her down and held her close. Ryoko felt her body react immediately to her touch and found that she wanted more. She looked into Ayeka's eyes and found purity but an unexplainable lust. Ayeka leaned in and kissed her, fully this time. Ryoko licked her lips as if asking for permission and Ayeka accepted as she opened her mouth. Ayeka let out a moan and their kiss deepened. Ayeka pulled back for air. "Ryoko I, I.." Ryoko silenced her with a finger. She slid her hands to her face and traced the edge of her jaw, her neck, she leaned into her ear "I didn't know you had this in you Princess, I'd like to see more.." This sent Ayeka a chill down her back. With a smile Ryoko licked her neck and bit down, not too hard, but enough to make Ayeka gasp. Ayeka slid her arms around Ryoko's body and felt the taught muscle under clothing. "Ryoko let's go somewhere warmer" "I know just where to go, hold on" She teleported them to the Onsen which was thankfully unoccupied. Ayeka knew that Ryoko would phase out of her clothing so she said, "Wait, I want to take my time undressing you." Ryoko was wearing a red and white dress that she normally wore with an orange and black jacket. Ayeka started by peeling of one of her red gloves and then the next. Ryoko cupped her face and kissed her gently "You have no idea how much restraint I am using on you Ayeka." "Good things come for those who wait." She finished undressing her and was in awe of Ryoko's nakedness, it was such an impact that her knees almost buckled. Ryoko smiled "What's the matter Princess you've seen me naked plenty of times." "Y-Yes but I never actually looked really, you're… beautiful." "Have you ever looked at yourself Ayeka? and you wonder why Tenchi gets nosebleeds all the time." Lucky for Ryoko Ayeka was wearing a light summer dress, it wasn't long before she was naked as well. Ryoko licked along her collarbone and Ayeka brought her hands up to Ryoko's breasts. Ryoko gasped in pleasure and kissed her long and hard. She wrapped an arm around Ayeka's waist and laid them onto the warm wood floor near the water which was surprisingly comfortable. Ryoko bit down on Ayeka's ear and whispered, "Have you ever done this before?" "Yes but never with a woman.. Ah!" Ryoko bit down on her right breast and sucked on her nipple. Her hands traced the shape of her body as she started a trail of kisses down her stomach. Ayeka wouldn't be able to take much more and Ryoko sensed this. Her hand slid down being careful not to touch the most erogenous of places. She dipped in her middle and forefinger barely going in but felt her wet and ready. Ayeka bit her lip and closed her eyes in anticipation. "Please Ryoko!" Ryoko plunged in her two fingers and started pumping in and out while her thumb caressed her clitoris. Knowing exactly where every pleasure spot was, she was in complete control. 'Being alive for 2000 years, gives you plenty of practice.' Ayeka felt her body heat rising and the pressure filling her like water in a glass until it eventually spilled over. Her body tensed and arched as nails raked across Ryoko's back. She yelled out in pleasure and thought for one second that she might pass out. Ryoko woke her from her daze with a deep long kiss.
