A/N: Hello everyone! So the amount of typing I have done between this and science in the past 2 weeks and including this upcomming Monday is ridiculous. However, I have fun writing this. Though I suppose reading about Damming the Yellow river is interesting. Anyways, here is this chapter, I know the parts were small and sometimes vague but, I wanted it like that. I would also like to say yay offically 2 years writing on FF! I know I didn't post anything on that day July 16th is my first story post. I celebrated in my head. Anyways, I hope you like this chapter and hopefully I can get the next one out soon. I've said it a hundred times before but these shorter chapters really do help me post more frequently. Thank you for all the PM's and reviews by the way, I love reading them!
The sun was peaking through the blinds as the house remained silent. Not a sound was being made though there was an issue. Not a struggle in sight though one was happening in the very room that was seeing small rays of light.
Rei laid in her bed, eyes open, staring at the ceiling above her. She hadn't slept much this night as she thought of Yoshino's words crossed her mind. Did she really mean what she had said the day before? Was Yoshino really a lesbian?
Rei sighed as she glanced to her alarm clock to check the time, it was almost 7 AM. Usually she wouldn't even wish this time upon her worst enemy on a Saturday. Yoshino wasn't her enemy though, perhaps that is why she couldn't sleep.
"M-Maybe, it's because...because. . . I'm a lesbian." The thought had haunted Rei all night as she closed her eyes and thought about everything from the beginning.
That day that Youko took her rosary back, was Yoshino a lesbian then? She might have been, but she didn't stick up for them then, so why a sudden change of heart. Why did she suddenly change? Did Sachiko and Yumi talk to Yoshino without her knowledge?
Rei sighed once again as she realized she was thinking too far into this. No one could be talked into being a lesbian could they?
"That is just ridiculous. Yoshino must have been for awhile, but if she is why didn't she tell me until now?" Rei thought as she rolled onto her side and glanced to the window in her room. Yoshino was just across the yard from her right now. She wondered if she would see the girl today seeing as though it was the weekend and they usually did things together.
"She wants nothing to do with you." Rei thought with a sigh as she felt a tear form in one of her eyes. She couldn't help but feel an emptiness as she wiped her eye and tried to go back to sleep for the thousandth time that night. She would have to fix this issue between her and Yoshino. She hated this feeling in her heart.

Yumi took a deep breath as she stood in her doorway to her room making sure everything was clean. She couldn't help but be a little off all morning as she thought of what Sachiko had asked for today. Thankfully her parents had left earlier so she had time to clean up a little and mentally prepare.
The silence wasn't helping her much as she swore she could hear the clock ticking all day long. She was nervous, but secretly excited about today. She had always thought of when this would happen if ever and here she was now.
Ding dong. . . .
Yumi took another deep breath as she swore her heart stopped at the sound of the doorbell. Glancing back at her room for just a moment more Yumi turned and started making her way downstairs. When she opened the front door she saw Sachiko with a small bag that contained a change of clothes for the sleep over.
"This is really happening. . ." Yumi breathed before smiling at Sachiko and letting her enter. Once inside she led Sachiko up to her room, both of them pausing at the sight of Yumi's bed.
After an awkward moment of staring the two glanced to one another before snapping out of their thoughts. "I'll just put my bag down here and we can go downstairs for a little while." Sachiko said as Yumi nodded before turning to head down the stairs.
As soon as they entered the kitchen they both felt the awkward tension from the bedroom leave them. Both girls stared at one another as they sat down at the table, a silent communication happening between the two. Neither knew what to expect and were nervous because of it. Deep down though, both had only thought of what they were planning on doing today.

Sei sighed as she threw a rock, skipping it across the streams surface that she was standing by. In the past two weeks her world had gone from normal to chaos. Sachiko and Yumi being banished from the Yamayurikai, Rei and Yoshino going separate ways, and Youko.
Sei barley knew who she was right now. She figured Youko would be the first to stand by Sachiko's side, she knew they were close, but she hadn't. Then again, Sei herself didn't exactly feel like she knew herself right now.
How she had gotten talked into living a lie like that was beyond her. Why she had done it now she didn't even remember. Was it so she would stop getting ridiculed, or was it for something else.
She thought of Youko when that question came across her mind, which in turn made her angry at herself as she tried to skip another rock, but instead threw it as hard as she could. She couldn't lose Youko as a friend, she needed Youko, she. . . Sei paused as she dropped the rock in her hand and felt tears form in her eyes.
She had feelings for Youko.

Yumi smiled as Sachiko leaned in for a kiss as they sat on the edge of her bed. The two had been nervous and after talking they had decided it may be best to go to her room and see what happened. It seemed like a great idea until the two approached the bedroom and realized this is where they would both not only experience their first time, but take that step together. The nerves had come back in full force.
The kiss they had shared was soft and gentle, just like their normal ones and when Sachiko pulled away Yumi could only frown a little. "S-Sorry, I'm just really nervous." Yumi admitted as Sachiko nodded in agreement.
"I know how you feel. . ." Sachiko sighed as she laid back down on Yumi's bed and looked to the ceiling. "I'm nervous, but I want this so bad." She continued as she glanced to Yumi who just nodded. "When we have kissed before I've wanted to continue, but why is now different?"
"Do you think we are too nervous?" Yumi asked as Sachiko thought for a moment before shrugging.
"I don't know, I mean, I know we're nervous but. . ." Sachiko sighed as the room went silent for another moment. "I have an idea."

Yumi sat on the edge of her bed as Sachiko left the room and headed down the hallway. Yumi could only sigh as she glanced to the floor. She hated that she was feeling like this now, too nervous to even look at Sachiko, let alone make love to her.
"She must hate me right now. . . I'm also so frightened to make any move around her. She is your girlfriend, she obviously likes you quite a bit. This is my first time though. . . What if I screw up or do something wrong?" Yumi thought with another disgruntled sigh.
"No, I won't let these nerves get the best of me. I want this so bad and I am just letting it slip." She told herself as she got up to her feet with a renewed confidence. It lasted the few steps that it took her to get to her bedroom door. She hated that she was like this right now, this was not how she had imagined her first time going.
"She wants this too." Yumi reassured herself as she nodded and took a deep breath before entering the hallway and practically running into Sachiko.
"S-Sachiko, I'm sorry, I just wanted to tell you. . . Why are you wrapped in that towel?" Yumi asked changing her thought process mid sentence.
"I...This is why." Sachiko said as she let go, the towel dropping to a pool around her feet. Never before had she thought it possible to do a full body blush, but she was accomplishing it now. A brave surprise on her part that she hoped would change the mood for the two. She figured the ultimate turn on would be seeing Yumi like this, so it might work the other way around.
Yumi's eyes went wide as her breathe got caught in her throat. She couldn't help but be in awe of Sachiko's nude form. Her eyes wandered quickly all across her body, taking in everything that they could. She felt like she was breaking the biggest law ever looking upon her girlfriend with desire. She was feeling things she never even knew she could. Everything about Sachiko was perfect and if she could could just sit and view her like this for the rest of her life she would die happy.
Sachiko could see the look in Yumi's eyes, it was surprised at first, but now it was turning to something else as her eyes wandered. ". . .Is it working. .?" Sachiko asked a little cautiously as Yumi looked back up to her eyes finally taking a breath. Seeing the depth of Yumi's desire in her eyes had also brought forth something in Sachiko. It was like a wave washing over her as she fully realized Yumi was looking at her with desire now.
Yumi could only nod in response to Sachiko's question as she reached out and took her by the wrist. "I'm definitely ready now."

The door closed as Yuuki took his shoes off and put them off to the side. He raised and eyebrow when he saw an extra pair of shoes that were too big for Yumi's. He just shrugged it off though, they were probably Sachiko's, after all the two did have sleepovers quite a bit.
The odd thing was that he didn't hear anything coming from upstairs which he usually could. Yumi laughing or the sound of the television or something, but this time there was silence. Her door must be shut he thought as he went to the fridge and grabbed some juice.
After reading the note from his mother about being out late he headed up the stairs with his drink in hand. Just as soon as he got to the top stair he noticed a towel laying in the middle of the hall which made him raise an eyebrow as he walked by Yumi's open bedroom door and glanced in briefly going to his room.
He didn't make it very far though as he froze and took a few steps back noticing clothes laying on Yumi's floor. What really caught his attention though was Yumi laying halfway on top of Sachiko, both their bare shoulders sticking out from under the blanket. Yuuki blinked once or twice realizing what happened before smiling a little and closing her bedroom door quietly.
As soon as that was done he made his way towards his room picking up the towel as he went. The only thought on his mind was, "took long enough, Yumi."
