Chapter 2: Lovers tell all

The next morning Chun Li woke up to hear the shower running. Ryu must be in there she thought. She quickly got up, did her hair up in a ponytail, put on a white shirt and comfortable jeans, and went into the kitchen to make breakfast. Just as she finished, Ryu came out of the bathroom refreshed and to her surprise, half naked. Chun Li took one look and was mesmerized by his muscular body. He had definitely grown sexier since she last saw him. Breaking out of her trance, Chun Li said,

"Morning"

"Morning," Ryu replied "Hope you don't mind me using your shower"

"Not at all, feel free. So are you hungry for breakfast?"

"You bet!"

Ryu then put on a white shirt along with the blue jeans he was wearing. They ate their breakfast and when they were done, Ryu helped Chun Li do the dishes which ended up in a water fight. Since both of them were wet, they could see right through each others white shirts. Ryu was kind of turned on by this and Chun Li turned on as well. After laughing it off, Chun Li asked,

"Want me to show you around town?"

"Sure, but I think we should get changed first, ha-ha."

Downtown Hong Kong

Chun Li and Ryu went all over Hong Kong showing him nice restaurants, clubs, and all sorts of nightlife activities, including a jewelry shop ) Their day was going great until night came. Ryu sensed someone was following them as they were walking down an alley.

"Chun Li," Ryu said, "I think we are being followed…get behind me."

Then, out of the shadows, a man with a face mask, long blond hair, and razor sharp claws appeared.

"Vega!" Chun Li said shocked

"I've come for you pretty girl, for you are the fairest of the ladies in my eye." Vega said evilly.

"Get a life, you creep!" Chun Li replied

"Oh, but the life I want is yours!" Vega started charging towards Ryu and Chun Li

"Ryu! Get out of the way!" Chun Li yelled as she pushed Ryu aside right before Vega knocked her to the ground. Chun Li got up and went into her fighting stance and Vega charged her again. She dodged his attack and kicked him with her powerful legs towards some trash cans.

"You'll pay for that!" Vega yelled and tried to attack Chun Li once more. One of Vega's claws made contact with Chun Li's arms causing her to cry out in pain. Angered, Chun Li then went into her stance for a spinning bird kick.

"Spinning bird kick!" she yelled as Vega got kicked a few times and thrown against a wall.

As they continued to fight Ryu got up from where Chun Li had pushed him. He heard Chun Li cry out in pain once more from Vega attacking her which got Ryu very angry.

"Chun Li! Watch out!" Ryu said as he started to do his famous move. Chun Li got a chance to get away from Vega a moment after.

"HADOKEN!!" Ryu yelled as a flash of white energy hit Vega causing him to fly backwards 20 feet. Ryu ran to Chun Li.

"Chun Li, are you alright?"

"Yah, just some cuts"

Chun Li started to fall, but Ryu caught her.

Chun Li continued, "just get me home Ryu."

Ryu turn to look where Vega landed but he was gone. Fearing he might strike again Ryu and Chun Li quickly left.

In Chun Li's apartment

Ryu carefully bandaged Chun Li where Vega had cut her as she rested in her bed from the fight.

"I was really worried about you!" Ryu said concerned, "you should have let me fight him."

"He was not after you, he was after me. It was my fight." Chun Li replied

"Don't you remember when he fought Ken in the cage a few years ago? Ken almost died!"

"I know, I was there……Look, Ryu, I… well I was really glad you were there to help me. You know, I was worried for you too."

Ryu grabbed Chun Li's hand and said,

"I was really scared for your safety, and I wanted to protect you. You mean a lot to me and if anything were….mmphh!"

Chun Li leaned over to Ryu and kissed him. Ryu was shocked and he blushed

"I've been wanting to do that since you came." Chun Li said

"You have?" Ryu replied in a quiet tone

"Ryu…couldn't you tell how I felt about you when we were younger? I wanted to tell you but I was afraid you would reject me."

Ryu paused a moment to let what he was hearing sink in.

"I never would have rejected you…I liked you too, I just never showed it."

Chun Li's eyes brightened with happiness and she said,

"Really? Oh Ryu, I love you!" She hugged him

Ryu held her tight and whispered in her ear,

"After tonight, I realized how much I care for you…I…love you too Chun Li."

Coming out of the hug, Chun Li looked at Ryu seductively and he knew what this type of look was.

"Ryu," Chun Li said softly, "I want to physically show you my love and how much I care for you. Will you be my first?"

"Aren't you hurt from your fight?"

"Not much."

Chun Li grabbed Ryu's head and she passionately kissed him. Ryu returned the favor. Chun Li pushed Ryu back lightly and took off his shirt, exposing his muscular and sexy upper body. She wanted him badly.

"This is going to be a special night Chun Li, and I'm gunna make sure that you'll never forget out first time making love. You sure you wanna do this?"

"I've never been so sure in my life Ryu"

Later...

"Ryu, that was amazing!" Chun Li said

"Yes, I never felt so alive! I'm glad my first time got to be with you Chun." Ryu said sweetly.

After caressing each other for a few minuets Ryu asked Chun Li,

"Ready for round 2?"

Chin Li smiled and agreed. They went at it again and later fell asleep in each others arms.
