CH 3: Regret It Yet?
He kissed her neck passionately and moaned against her skin, his desire burning.
"Do you still love me?" He asked as he devoured the girl in his lap.
She didn't know how to answer. It wasn't like she wanted to say no, but she definitely couldn't say yes. She just moaned and turned her head to the side, avoiding the question and instead giving Tadashi a half-answer with her body.
Two weeks had started a fire in Tadashi's heart and his body was yearning for his loved one but it hadn't done much in Catherine's mind and she regretted suggesting the recess at all.
"Catherine." Tadashi called the girls name as they sat in her black car. Silence reigned the whole week and this was the first time they'd been entirely alone with each other. She only turned her head to the boy. She felt her heart tighten. She blamed herself for all the pain she was feeling, however the poison Kade could so easily inject her with was already coursing through her blood. It pumped through her day in, day out and silently murdered Tadashi.
"What's going on here?" The boy asked simply, aware that Catherine knew exactly what he was referring to.
"What do you mean?"
"Don't-Don't do that." He turned in the passenger seat to face her directly.
"What do you want me to say, Tadashi?" She questioned coldly.
"I just want to know what happened. We were going so well then out of nowhere you start doing that." He motioned to the emotionless face she had on.
"Would you rather I cry on your shoulder? Is that what you want; to be my hero?" Her words seemed to mock his feelings and he knitted his brows immediately while staring at the girl.
"This isn't a joke, you know. I just want to be there for you, you don't have to put up so many walls." The boy tried to hold the hand she had on the steering wheel but she pulled it away.
"Why are you doing this?" He raised his voice as he scrubbed his face frustrated. When he faced the girl again she was covering her mouth with one hand as she looked sideways. He knew her enough to know that's what she did when she was angry.
"I think we should take a break." Catherine finally spoke without sarcasm. However this time Tadashi wished she had. He pinched the bridge of his nose as his eyes squeezed shut.
"Why, Catherine?"
"Because I don't want to feel like you've got to watch over me like a child." She spits out and Tadashi scoffs.
"I'm not watching over you, I care for you!" It was the first time she had heard Tadashi shout and it sent shivers down her spine. She couldn't rip her gaze from his exasperated expression. It made her feel awful to realize that she wanted to laugh in his face when he made that look.
"It's not your fault." She managed to answer him with a weak reply.
"Then why do I have to suffer for it?" Tadashi didn't care about the girl's reaction this time and just pulled her into his embrace. Catherine's eyes stung and she felt tears want to fall down her cheeks. She really did like Tadashi a lot. It hurt her heart to see how terrible she was being to him but she couldn't let her guard down.
"Tadashi...don't make this harder than it already is." The girl answered honestly and he pulled back to look into her eyes. They were red and glossy and he decided to go easy on her.
"Fine, let's take a break." The agreement was made and Tadashi stepped out of the girl's car. She sat quietly as she watched him walk into his house. Tiny sniffles broke the dead quietness in her vehicle and she shook her head as she drove off.
The first days were hell for both of them but later into the beginning of the second week Catherine could feel herself getting better. It scared her to recognize how easily she could get over Tadashi. She still recalled him at night when she was all alone and she'd be lying if she said she hadn't thought of calling him once or twice but it was so trivial to just push him out of her thoughts during the day that it made her wonder how necessary he was in the first place. Tadashi on the other hand was a mess.
"Tadashi, come with us, it'll be fun." Honey Lemon offered a sweet smile to her friend as the others stood behind her waiting the boys answer.
"Its fine, Honey, I'll just finish up on this new idea." Tadashi denied while organizing his desk littered with papers and blue prints.
"Oh, okay." The blond stepped back and Gogo shook her head while striding up to the boy and slamming her palm down on the desk.
"Look, Tadashi, we get that you really liked Catherine, but life goes on." The short girl stated as Tadashi looked up to her from his seat.
"Go-Go, don't be so rough on him." Wasabi tried to pull her back but she just continued.
"Personally you're not my type but I'm sure there's other girls out there, who'd like you, so forget the past and move on." She popped a bubble and Tadashi gave a light smile although it didn't really make him feel any better.
"Thanks Gogo, but I really don't feel like going out today."
"Fine then, your choice." The girl said and walked back towards the others waiting at the door of Tadashi's lab.
"Dude, you're gonna miss it, tonight I'll be demonstrating how to make different types of growls using only a straw and two packets of ketchup." Fred tried coaxing his friend one last time and even managed a slight giggle from Tadashi but he just shook his head.
"I'm good, you'll just have to show me next time."
The group reluctantly left the University without their friend. Soon after they had gone Tadashi began rattling with Baymax, tuning him up where ever he thought would be needed, but he didn't have the concentration that night. He had closed up the lab and was walking down the hall when he caught sight of the familiar pace that Catherine had. He stopped and they stared at each other from a distance. Without a word they walked up to each other. Face to face in the empty hall the two were wordless. Catherine took Tadashi's hand and he watched her carefully.
"Come on." Tadashi led her back to his lab.
They sat on opposite sides of the room in an awkward silence, looking at each other's embarrassed faces. They felt childish and stupid but it was in the past. Tadashi stood and walked over to the girl. She watched him quietly as he placed his hand on her cheek and moved in to kiss her gently. She opened her mouth as his tongue easily slipped in. They weren't going to talk it over. Catherine had found out she didn't need to. If Tadashi knew better he wouldn't make everything so easy for her. If he only knew that she was going to do whatever she wanted regardless of his feelings he would at least try to fight that look she gave him. He wouldn't so easily take whatever she handed him. But he didn't know better and he accepted her entirely. His temperature increased at a quick rate and Catherine orchestrated the whole scene to her liking. She stood and he deepened their kiss even more. They moved and Tadashi ended up sitting on the chair she had been on. Her luscious thighs cradled the boy's side as she sat upon his lap.
"I missed you so much." Tadashi held onto Catherine like his life depended on it. He took in every detail of her body with passion. He hadn't gotten off for the whole period of time that they weren't together, bringing his hormones to exceeding levels. Catherine squirmed on his lap as he undid her bra and teased her nipples with the tip of his tongue. She didn't know what was going on. Her conscious was clouded by desire and though she knew that what she was doing was far from what Tadashi thought they were doing she couldn't bring herself to stopping. Her eyebrows furrowed as she guiltily received all the affection she was being showered with.
"Catherine. I love you." Tadashi repeated these words as he excited the girl's body more and more. He opened his eyes and finally realized the state he had put her in; back arched to its fullest, the buds of her breasts completely erect and an expression so lewd that it agitated Tadashi even more just from observing her. He was in awe at the erotic sight.
Unaware of how turned on she actually was Catherine instinctively began rolling her hips over Tadashi searching for more friction. His breath hitched at the feeling and he became sensitive all over. Each touch from the girl aroused him more. He tried to hold back at first, his mind telling him to take things slowly, but his nature was stronger and the wave of hormones took over in an instant.
He gripped her hips and found a rhythm that was enough to drive them both off the edge. Grinding over his fully clothed erection was much more painful than Tadashi had expected but the sounds Catherine made were too good and he wouldn't stop them for a second, even if it was to make him more comfortable. Suddenly the girl started speeding up, her arms gripped around Tadashi's wide shoulders as she whimpered erotically, lips hovering besides the boy's ear. He could feel his member twitching with need and thought about unzipping his pants but gave up when Catherine started bouncing over his rock hard dick. Groans and growls rumbled in his throat as he tried his best to keep sentient of everything happening since Catherine had lost her decency long ago. Tadashi let the girl coil her body over his as he kept an eye on the door of his lab. She was nearing her high, he could notice it. Her moans were more often and more high-pitched as she rubbed her exposed breasts over the boy's chest. Selfishly Catherine had left Tadashi completely dressed and cared only about her own needs, luckily the boy found this more of a turn on than a egocentric act.
"Ah...I'm gonna..." She started winding as she warned the boy under her.
"I got you. Go ahead." Tadashi kissed her neck and she sighed as her body released all the tension it had built up. She felt waves of pleasure so strong she started having spasms over the boy who held her securely. When she was done she flopped over Tadashi's body and closed her eyes. He was still hard but he wasn't going to force her to get him off if she was too tired. Instead he just sighed and hugged the girl tighter. He was finally beginning to realize that Catherine didn't love him like he loved her.
