Should do the trick

A week past in seconds. The Gekko crew was gone – with the exception of Holland and Talho, who were leaving in one hour to catch a commercial flight out West, for reasons the two didn't seem to think important enough to bother Eureka and Renton with. They decided that, for now, the Moonlight would remain grounded; but if they ever took off, Renton would have to be payed for restoring it.

The kids got to spend every second with Eureka, except for the hour or two a day Riku would come to abduct her – who know what they did and where they went? To be honest, when it came to Renton's worries, even the lack of a reff market took a backseat to what Riku was up to.

As it turns out, Renton's worries were unfounded. Most of the girls' time together was spent with Riku talking and Eureka listening as they walked across the hills surrounding the Thurston garage. Not about gossip – or him – but about Riku and her everyday life. The boring and ordinary was new and exciting to Eureka. Things like lunch time, sports festivals, and tests for the different subjects in school, all seemed as fascinating to her as battles, chases, and LFO fights were to Riku.

Eureka was so focused on Riku as a spring of information, rather than a normal friend – the very thing she wanted, even above a normal life – whom she could share personal problems, questions, and feelings with, that on the last day of Holland and Talho's stay Eureka went out of her way to pull Talho aside.

"So where's the fire?" Talho said in a half-laugh.

Eureka struggled in a long moment of silence, trying to find the right words. 'This isn't the time to be this way. Boldness, Eureka!'

"You know we're on a tight schedule, right Eureka? Geez, Holland and Renton spoil you too much."

"I –" The shout caught Talho's attention. "I need you to help me. . ." Eureka's voice died away too suddenly.

"C'mon, Eureka."

'Geez, I'm gonna have to ease this out of her.'

"What is it you need help with." Eureka was struggling to find the right words. "If it's something I know about, then I'll be sure to do my best to help you."

"How– I mean, how did you get pregnant?"

"What!" Eureka thought she had been pretty clear, but now she had to think of another way to put it.

'Better not let Holland hear about this; but really, I didn't think Renton had it in him.'

"I know a little about it. Holland and you had to–"

"Stop right there, Eureka. Why don't we start with how this question came to your head?"

"Ok, umm...last week on the night I woke up. . ."


"Renton, please..." Eureka didn't need to guide his hand, Renton seemed to understand what she wanted. Renton was only trying to satisfy his own wants, and Eureka's expression was giving him the courage to continue. She was almost in pain, but as Renton's hand moved up her leg her eyes softened, and her muscles relaxed.

'What are we doing? How did I get here– I mean, I'm almost at Eureka's–'

"Renton. . ."

"Uh–"

"Don't stop." Renton had stopped his hand just short of Eureka's underwear. Her body was now laying flat on the bed of the truck, forcing Renton to move over, still on his side but looking over Eureka's small body.

'She's already wet.'

In the dark of the garage, it was hard to see Eureka's expression as his fingers moved across the thin piece of fabric separating torture and bliss. Renton's eyes began to adjust, and he saw Eureka's face. She must have just seen him as well because there was a look of mixed confusion and embarrassment reddening her cheeks; but it was gone in a moment, replaced with a boldness Renton didn't expect.

"Eureka, I need you to lift up for a moment." Renton moved his body, placed his hands on each side of Eureka's bottoms, and began to gently pull them off. Eureka did so, and Renton placed his hand at her knee and began to move up.

'Too slow' Eureka was wishing with everything that was in her that Renton would move his hand faster. Mechanically, she placed her hand upon Renton's and guided it to her entrance.

For a moment, both of them were perfectly still. Eureka wouldn't lead Renton on. She couldn't, even if she knew how, it was too embarrassing– Renton feeling her like this. And Renton didn't know what would hurt her, or what would make her happy– he couldn't distinguish between the different expressions passing over Eureka's face. He only saw the relief and tension passing over one another.

"Eureka," Renton barely breathed her name, and at the sound of his voice Eureka's eyes opened and her face fell into relief. Looking at him, Renton saw nothing but love– love for him– in them. "I love you. So, I don't want to hurt you. Tell me, okay? Tell me to stop."

Eureka's face was gentle, but for a moment a wave of confusion and grief passed over her; then, it was gone– another wave of immense love and wanting over took it.

"I love you, Renton. . .I love you. . .Renton. . .not yet."

Renton had no more arguments. He began to move his fingers across her lips, and studied her face as it changed, trying to elicit more and more pleasure from her. Eureka's body contorted as Renton touched her, and her legs began to lock when Renton's hand ceased to move. She felt him place his palm over her moist lips, feeling now how wet she really was.

"Wh-What are you doing? Renton–" The fierceness of Renton's eyes made her stop panicking on the outside, but she was screaming on the inside.

'Stop– stop feeling all of me. . .like that. Move. move. Please, move. . .I can't take it much longer.'

"Eureka, you have to loosen your legs, okay?" Now Eureka noticed, and the realization that it was her fault Renton couldn't move freely made her cover her face with both hands.

Renton was stifling his laughter, and since her grip on his hand had loosened, he began to pull Eureka's legs apart. Till now, Renton had been content moving across and along Eureka's lips. But now he began to push along the entrance, and moving toward her stomach he stopped at a knot above her small hole.

"Aah. . ." For the first time, Eureka allowed herself to make a noise. Immediately, she had regretted it. She forced the sound back into her lungs, hoping that Renton wouldn't hate her for it.

A light went on in Renton's head, and this time he couldn't help but laugh.

"Hehe. . .Ahahaha!" Eureka looked back to Renton, and was too enraptured to be confused. "Eureka, you don't have to force yourself, never with me. It's ok to let it out."

"Mmm." Eureka quietly nodded her understanding. Renton began to move again, this time in a circular motion around her clit.

Eureka's moans were growing louder and louder, echoing through the garage. Every few moments, Renton placed his free hand upon Eureka's inner thigh and massaged her until Eureka unlocked her legs, allowing Renton to move more easily.

It was tough, every moment Eureka felt like she was about to burst. The heat from between her legs was trying to escape from her body. She couldn't lock her legs, and though her screams helped at first, they were now subsiding into frustration.

Without realizing it, her whole body became tense. Eureka's hips were gyrating back in forth, in time with the circling of Renton's fingers. Clenching the sheets at her hands, and arching her back, Eureka's body shot up off the truck bed and pushed against Renton's hand.


"I. . .don't remember anything after that." Eureka hadn't made eye contact with Talho throughout the entire story. Aside from that, Talho was more impressed than embarrassed by the way Eureka openly, and without any vagueness, disclosed her first sexual experience.

'I guess she hasn't changed THAT much.'

"So," Eureka tried again, "I don't know how Renton feels, but. . .if he wants to–" Eureka had heard the word 'sex' before, as a technical term when Mischa had explained to her how babies were made, but wasn't totally sure if it had anything to do with what she and Renton had done– or what she wanted him to do to her.

"I think I get it Eureka." Talho had known what was coming half way through Eureka's account, and she had been weighing her words carefully. Now, she knew what she was going to say.

'I can't believe I'm still holding this girls hand. Hohoho, but not for much longer.'

"Listen, Eureka. It's like you said, I don't think Renton would do anything to hurt you. So let him take the lead, and don't force yourself. If you feel uncomfortable with something, then tell him to Stop! And if he doesn't listen, just hit him– or better yet, yell for Axel."

'That last bit of it advice should do the trick.'

"But most importantly, you have a friend now that can give you advice, too. Riku, right?"

"Ah–Mmm!"
