It was a Monday. Now that the significance of that has sunk in Ichigo was at school and the first class of the day was physical education. That meant a trip to the locker room to get in the gym uniforms. As they girls were undressing Moe noticed something.

"Ichigo, what's that on your arm?"

"Huh? Oh! That. It's nothing"

"No way Ichigo, that looks serious"

Ichigo panicked, waving her arms franticly.

"No no no no no! It isn't serious Masa-"

The catgirl slapped her hands over her mouth. Miwa looked her in the face accusingly.

"You were about to say the name of your boyfriend weren't you? This isn't healthy!"

"N-no I-"

"Don't deny it! You shou-"

The teacher then came in and ordered them all to hurry and get ready for class. At the end Ichigo was again confronted by her friends.

"I never thought a guy like him would do such a thing! He seemed so nice!"

"You need to get out of this relationship right now! It'll only get worse if you stay!"

Ichigo spazed. As she sputtered about how they had the wrong idea the teacher came over.

"Just what is going on here?"

lllllllllll

"So you were trying to help your friend who is in an abusive relationship"

Moe and Miwa nodded. The teacher looked carefully at Ichigo.

"Your friends just want to help you. There's some pamphlets in the nurses office that you should read too"

"IYAAAA!!"

Ichigo squirmed out of her friends grip, still in her gym uniform, and ran. Moe, Miwa and the teacher pursued.

"You got it all wrong!"

"Come back!"

"We're just trying to help you!"

"No running in the halls!"

Ichigo dashed down the hall faster than her pursuers. Miwa came to a stop.

"We should just go after that prick she's dating!"

"Right! His classroom's this way"

The teacher followed after the two girls. Ichigo stopped short and began chasing them.

"Wait!! Stop!!! He didn't hit me!!"

Ichigo's friends burst into Masaya's classroom.

""We're calling you out Aoyama!!""

Confusion reigned in the room. Masaya turned to the intruders. They gasped. The accused had a black eye.

lllllllll

Ichigo arrived only to have her friends and teacher look at her in horror.

"It wasn't him that was abusive…"

"It was you!"

"NYAA!?!?!"

"We thought you were a nice girl Ichigo"

"How could you lie to your friends like that?"

In order to protect his girlfriend, as her ears were just about to pop out, Masaya took a stand.

llllll

"So it was just you two falling yesterday on a date. We were all worried over nothing then"

The teacher chuckled nervously as many in the class snickered at Ichigo and Masaya. Ichigo's almost legendary klutziness became even more so after the school learned how her pratfalls claimed a new victim. Masaya's fangirls were less than happy and pestered the catgirl the rest of the day.

llllll

Ichigo flopped down on the hotel bed with a heavy sigh. Masaya gently began to undress her.

"I can't believe the day I've had. Having to lie to cover up that bruise I got when we fell out of bed… I told you that position wouldn't work… and all your damn fangirls"

"Sorry about that. There's only so much I can do about them. I apologize for any inconvenience"

Masaya removed her panties then carefully held her up to remove her bra. Ichigo sighed again and laid down on her back. Masaya opened the body paint Ichigo received from Zakuro and slowly painted his girlfriends naked body.

"Oo! That's cold"

"It'll heat up real soon. Itadakimasu"

Ichgo giggled as Masaya stopped painting and began feasting on her. She squirmed under the feather light touches of Masaya's tongue. He smiled and licked harder, paying close attention to her nipples. He then moved down, tracing the path he had painted on her trim stomach all the way to her rapidly moistening hole. Once there he indulged in the mixture of her juices and the cream flavored topping; sending Ichigo into ecstasy. He stood up, preparing to enter her. As he did Ichigo reached over to the body paint, scooping some up in her hand. She let it drip onto herself before slowly licking it off her fingers. Masaya plunged deep into her and crushed his lips to hers. She readily opened her mouth and deep kissed him; her hands finding their way onto his strong back.

llllllll

Later the lovers shared content expressions as they return home, snuggled in each other's arms. Ichigo giggled.

"I love nyotaimori"

"Me too. Chocolate next time?"

lllllllll

Iya – no

Itadakimasu – phrase said before eating in Japanese culture; no English equivalent

Nyotaimori – practice of eating various edibles off a woman's naked body
