Hiya! Been about two weeks since summer vacation started and I feel so fresh!
Anyways I'm just gonna say I love Takasugi Shinsuke he is so freaking awesome but I also have this head cannon that he is super gay (I like gay men) but if other fans feel offended I apologize.
Thank you for reading!
Nobume Imai walked seemingly indifferent through the park close by the school eating doughnuts from the open box in her other hand. It did not really show on her face but she felt completely dejected from the rejection of Okita Sougo and the lost of one of her best friends, Kagura. With Kagura hating her it would also result in Soyo hating her; she never really pointed it out rather she tried to hide it but at times it was blatantly obvious that Soyo treasured Kagura more. Nobume always tried to not let it bother her but there were moments where it really hurt, moments like this one.
The girl turned her head quickly upon spotted a familiar color of red hair and a sigh of relief escaped her lips when it had only been Kamui. He smiled at her with his usual smile and walked up to her with a skip to his step.
"What are you doing on this fine morning, young lady?" He watched her throw her doughnut box on the ground after she grabbed the last doughnut from it. "Littering, I see."
"Don't speak like that. I don't want to throw up my meal."
"Yes yes! You seem so unpleasant; it must be because you were rejected by my precious children." He shook his head as if they truly were his children.
She ignored him walking passed him. She really was not in the mood to deal with him especially a him that decided he wanted to act out of character, pretending to care.
"I know of a way to make you forget everything." He told her with with his usual tone.
Nobume stopped; she stood in her spot contemplating how to respond. He wondered for a while if she would actually say yes right off the bat. "Do you want her to hate me even more?"
"Does it matter if she does?" He asked teasingly taking silent steps towards her.
She spun around growling out; "Of course it does." Surprise was evident on her face at the unexpected close proximity of the other teen.
He bent down to her ear to whisper. "We're just gonna have a bit of fun."
She glared at him her cherry colored eyes turned fiery. "Fine." She said giving up.
Kamui lived in a studio apartment; it was a comfortable one person living space. A queen sized bed lied comfortably in a corner of the large room; it was good size considering Kagura and her dog slept over occasionally. Like Nobume the red-head lived alone, his father paid for the rent and Kamui paid for his food and other living necessities with his part time job. Kagura had to beg them to work things out so that her brother did not have to continue to live secretly in a department store.
Nobume was not particularly nervous of sleeping with him even when the other teen started to undress himself. Unfortunately, she had slept with a few other men for comfort, most of them she cannot even recall the names of. What she was nervous of was that the person she was about to sleep with was the brother of the girl she held most dear. Did it really matter though?
She shook her head, took a deep breath, and started to undress.
Kamui yawned and stretched his limps from the nap he took after committing the forbidden act of sex between enemies. It bothered him none. "I am going to have to really wash these sheets. I wonder if you can wash the mattress, I'll just flip it over." He thought aloud sitting up and glancing at the girl who cuddled with the blanket, facing the other direction.
"Are you jealous?" He teased.
Nobume furrowed her eyebrows. "Kagura barely ever slept over my house."
He laughed. "So that's what it was about. I'm hungry, so hungry I want Shinsuke cooking, I'll bug him latter." He said jumping from the bed and walking to the fridge unashamedly naked.
The blue-headed girl reached for phone in her pants pocket on the floor. She checked the time and decided she should get going. Quietly she got dressed while Kamui began to cut up some meat for whatever it was he was making.
"How do you feel?" He asked her before she opened the door.
"Gross."
"So mean. If I had feelings they'd be hurt."
She opened the door and almost to the point where no one could hear it she said; "Thanks." With that she closed the door behind her.
He smiled to himself.
Today Nobume felt better. Even though it was only for sex she felt kind of wanted, she felt that today she had not messed anything up instead she started up a different relationship with a man she thought hated her. She would never tell anyone she felt that way and she was denying it herself. It would be a while before she could get over Okita but perhaps she could find something a little more fun besides going after a guy who had a thing for a girl she destroyed a friendship with.
Kamui on the other hand felt confused for the second time in his life (first time being the emotions he felt toward his now friends). Sure he had had sex with woman many times, simply to suppress the raging pheromones of a teenage boy. But somehow doing it with his precious little girl's best friend, which he knew she still cared about, felt a little bit weirder. He was not yet sure if it was bad weird or not but there was no way he would fall for her because he promised himself there would only be two woman he would ever love; his late mother and his sister.
They both truly wondered how Kagura would take it if she were to find out what happened between them. Sad, angry, or perhaps even happy, this would be the best option though neither of them suspected that would be the case. They both thought they knew her better than anyone but perhaps there was a limit to how much a person could truly know someone.
So clearly this chapter starts a new blooming relationship between Kamui and Nobume. Will their relationship become more than sexual relief? I wonder.
