FOUR : Falling into temptation
"Where did they go?"
Rikku entered the living room, wearing her cooking apron and matching gloves. "Dinner is ready."
"They're in the hallway." Tidus responded, chuckling, not shifting his gaze from the TV. "Apparently there's some trouble in paradise."
Rikku frowned and walked towards the door, "Oh no, what could be wrong?" She removed her apron and the gloves. She approached the door and rested a hand on the doorknob. "Did they argue or something?" she asked, turning towards Tidus.
He was only listening with one ear, so he didn't understand what she had just said and just shrugged.
Rikku rolled with her eyes and pressed her ear against the door to listen. "I can't hear a thing..." she whispered to herself and slowly opened the door on a crack.
"Excuse me...?" She hesitantly asked, but was cut short when she heard a soft whimper resonating in the dark hallway. She pushed the door further open and looked around. There was no one. She entered the hall and closed the door, frowning. Closing the door behind her, she heard a soft sob and turned around.
Yuna was sitting there, behind the door, holding her knees up against her body, tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Yuna!" Rikku whispered and kneeled next to her, taking her friend in her arms. "What's wrong? What happened?" the little blonde asked, voice breaking with concern. Yuna just continued to sob and held on tight to her friend. Rikku just held her for a time, gently caressing her hair and rocking her slowly back and forth. After some time Yuna's sobbing decreased.
"Where's Seymour?" Rikku hesitantly asked, still running one hand over Yuna's head.
"He..." Yuna pushed herself away and dried her cheeks with the back of her hands, "He left... a time ago..." She whispered.
Rikku didn't understand. "Why would he just leave like that?" She asked, looking at her friend's sorrowful face.
"He said that he had an important matter to attend to..." she quickly said, searching for support on the wall so that she could stand up. Rikku just watched her getting up and still didn't understand everything. What was really going on?
Yuna produced a smile and shrugged, chuckling briefly; "I don't even know why I was crying, eh... Stupid, huh...?" she said looking at her feet.
Rikku slowly stood up and put a comforting hand on her shoulder. "Hey, I would cry too if my Tidus went off like that... It's ok you know?" she smiled at her. Yuna swallowed hard. If she only knew...
"I think I just need to rest... Rikku. I'm really sorry but, I think I'll..." Yuna hesitantly whispered, not daring to look at her friend's face.
Rikku just waved her hands in front of her and shook her head. "Hey, I understand, you know? We'll have plenty of time to celebrate my moving to Bevelle, so..." Yuna looked at her and gave her a broad smile.
"Thank you, Rikku... I'm really sorry..." she apologised again.
"It's alright, Yunie!" Rikku smiled, "Oh! I'll give you some of the dinner to go, ok?"
Yuna gasped and shook her head, "Oh no... Please don't bother... I..."
Rikku stubbornly shook her head and opened the living room door. "I made your favourite, so don't you dare say no again!" she chuckled.
Yuna's eyes widened, she hadn't thought that Rikku would remember her favourite dish. "You made a dish of grilled potatoes with cheese and ham...?" Rikku nodded and chuckled.
"Uh-huh, with a roast in creamy mushroom sauce and green asparaguses." She continued.
"Oh my, you really outdid yourself..." Yuna whispered, putting a hand on her forehead.
"Just wait here, I'll ask Tidus to take you home." Rikku wanted to close the door.
"Eh... no! Eh, that's ok, really!" Yuna hastily said shaking her head. Oh god no! She really didn't want to see him now...
"Yuna, honey, the rain is bucketing down out there! Just wait here." Rikku entered the living room.
Yuna whispered an 'Ok' and took her jacket. Oh god... she was going to be with him all alone again! It had been more than five years now... was she going to be able to handle it this time?
"I have to..." she whispered to herself, looking at the pouring rain outside the small window next to the exit door. "I can't make it home by myself... and that's just great!" She put a hand on her forehead again and sighed, whose fault was that...? Damn.
"I won't let him touch me. He can't because he's with Rikku... oh my god, Rikku..." she whispered, covering her mouth with a shaking hand.
When Rikku had invited her for dinner two days ago, she had gladly accepted, not knowing that her friend had met her ex-boyfriend in Luca after a blitz game four months ago and had started a relationship with him. When Rikku told her about it over the phone, Yuna had felt her heart skip a beat and hadn't react for a few minutes. Why had she been so shaken up by this? Had she been happy to hear that news about her ex love or... had she feared his return to the city? Whatever it had been, she had decided to take Seymour with her. Now that she thought about all of this, she questioned her own intentions on this one. Had she taken him along for the support or had she done so...to make Tidus... jealous?
"Oh my... god..." she slowly whispered to herself. She indeed had wanted him back! Seymour had been so right!
"Ready to go?"
Yuna froze and slowly turned to face him, eyes wide open in shock.
He carefully laid her on the red, silken covers of his king-size bed and stretched himself next to her, gazing down upon her features. Yuna sighed and looked up at him, waiting and heart beating furiously in her chest.
"You truly are beautiful Yuna." He whispered, trailing one hand the long her collarbone. Yuna caressed his temple with a hand and softly smiled when he closed his eyes, savouring her touch. She slid her hand into his hair and pulled him to her for a kiss. He gladly implied and put all the passion and desire had for her into it. His one free hand slid from her collarbone down to her right breast and cupped it gently. Yuna gasped and broke the kiss, arching her neck. He took advantage of that reaction and trailed soft kisses the long her throat, down to her collarbone. She let a shaky sigh as he started to unbutton her blouse and moaned when his hand made contact with her skin. He continued to unbutton the blouse and eased her out of it. She was now wearing nothing but her bra and her short jeans skirt. He then moved to nibble on her now exposed shoulder. Yuna whimpered his name and eagerly started to pull his shirt out of his pants. He took it off swiftly and continued his exploration by removing the straps of her bra, pushing them off her shoulders.
Yuna was holding his head closely to her as he kissed her shoulders, sliding to her chest and finally...
"Seymour..." she whispered and then bit her lips as he pushed the remaining fabric of her bra from her breasts. She let out a low groan as he hesitantly started to suck on her nipple and tenderly massaged the other with his thumb. Breathing heavily, she reached behind her back and unhooked her bra, taking it off.
Seymour had stopped to watch her do this and couldn't help but stare at her now exposed chest, heaving up and down in front of him. He ran his hands the long her legs now until he reached the hem of her panties. Closing her eyes, Yuna followed the touch of his hands and moaned in anticipation as he slowly removed her panties. She opened them again as she felt his weight softly settle itself against her, his bare chest pressing against hers and his growing arousal grinding against that moist spot between her legs through his pants.
He looked down and bit his lower lip, his face expressing pure excitement, pure want. She pulled him down again and fiercely battled her tongue against his as he devoured her mouth with his. Groaning as he felt her wrap her legs around him, Seymour had to control himself from not taking her the way he wanted her so badly. He was slightly surprised when she softly started to plead to him.
"Now... oh please..." she moaned, pressing up against him, eyes tightly shut.
Yuna was already soaking wet from the foreplay and didn't want to reach her orgasm alone. She desperately tugged at his belt and heard him chuckle softly in her ear.
"I'll give it all to you, little one. It's all for you."
Her eyes flung open as she felt him insert a finger into her.
"Seymour..." she gasped as he slowly started to pump in and out of her and closed her eyes again. Realising that she was close to come he inserted another finger, slightly shifting the angle, speeding up.
"Oh god...!" she whimpered, arching her back.
Her head was spinning, her heart was racing and it all felt so good this time. This had been exactly what she had been missing with Tidus. He hadn't given it to her like 'that' anymore since...
But Seymour was doing it right now to her and... God how she had missed it...
"Oh!" she moaned and felt his large member slowly slide inside. She was already sweating and so close to that edge already... she knew she wouldn't last out that long before...
He carefully slid all the way in and then slowly started to slide in and out on a regular pace. He kept his eyes on her face, seeing sweat drops forming on her forehead and hearing her gasping softly with each stroke, her chest heaving up and down.
"Beautiful." He whispered, wincing at the incredible feeling of her around him. Putting one hand on her thigh, he pushed himself deeper as he lowered himself on her lips once again. Yuna moaned into his mouth and took a sharp intake of breath as she felt him pushing deeper inside of her, grinding against that sensitive spot within. Breaking the kiss, she arched up to meet him, whispering his name. He groaned and pushed harder, making use of his hand on her thigh to pull her to him. Yuna arched further, pressing her head into the pillow, one hand fisting in the red covers, the other holding him to her.
"D-don't stop..." she whimpered, approaching her climax.
He sensed her being close and speeded up his rhythm, making her body shake with each powerful stroke inside of her.
"Never..." he breathed against her throat.
"Oh g-god...!" her voice rising as she sobbed, holding him tightly to him, their bodies grinding fully against each other.
Feeling her body tense around him, Seymour kept on pumping until he felt his orgasm coming on too. As Yuna climaxed, her muscles contracting uncontrollably around him, and he shot forward, releasing deep inside of her.
After the lovemaking, they lay still for a couple of minutes in each other's arms. Seymour's head lay against Yuna's chest and Yuna waited for him to regain his strength, caressing his hair. She sighed, feeling thankful and happy. Simply happy. She bent her head and kissed his damp forehead. She felt him stir and tighten his embrace on her.
"Thank you." She whispered.
"I love you, beautiful Yuna." He sleepily whispered, softly kissing her in her neck.
Yuna frowned. She hadn't expected this... no...He actually loved her... she had thought that it had been simple sexual attraction between them... she hadn't... she didn't... she loved him, but not like that... she loved him like you would love a friend... maybe it was that he meant? She opted for honesty.
"Me too." She whispered and held him closer.
"Ready to go?"
Yuna slowly turned to look at him; her mismatched eyes growing wide as she saw the large amount of Tupperware pots that he was carrying.
"Did she cook all of that?" she slowly whispered, looking up at him. "I really won't be able to finish all of that, eh..." she softly smiled.
He shrugged and passed her, walking slowly towards the door. "She gave an extra portion for that... boyfriend of yours..." he said, not turning to look at her. "Too bad he left; it could have become an interesting evening."
Yuna took a step back and shook her head, "Why did you..." she started, but took a breath to calm herself down.
"Just don't go there..." she whispered. "And he is not my..." she swallowed, "...my boyfriend." She softly continued, looking down, clenching her fists, and desperately trying to calm down.
Tidus chuckled, amused by the visible efforts she was doing to calm herself down. He decided to push it a little further. "Oww... how sad. He broke up with you, then?" he continued.
Yuna looked up at him, hatred all over her face. She had lost her patience with him. "No! Just stop it!" she tried to at least control her voice so that it wouldn't rise too much. She stormed past him, yanking the door open.
"You're so pathetic!" she whispered and walked into the rain.
Tidus sighed and smiled. He got her right where he wanted her.
"Take me home!" he heard her scream from his car.
Chuckling, he closed the door and hurried to her.
"So what really happened, sweetypants?" Tidus asked as he went up the stairs of her apartment, looking at her behind as she went up first.
The long ride from Rikku's house to her apartment had been a silent one. She hadn't wanted to look at him or even speak to him. When he had offered to carry the pots to her apartment, she had said nothing but just left the door open. So now he was following her and he was starting to get annoyed too.
"Hey, hello? I asked you someth..."
"You know?" She stopped and turned to look at him, one finger raised towards him. "You're absolutely, but then absolutely not in a position to ask me for anything alright? Just get those pots in my apartment and then leave. Until then, I don't want to hear a thing from you, you understand?!" she angrily whispered.
Tidus smiled, "Oh since when are you so...hot tempered, babe?" he whispered, his eyes trailing from her wet hair to her wet lips and downwards to her wet blouse...
She smacked him and turned angrily up the stairs.
He looked up at her with an evil smirk plastered on his face while she went up again and ran his tongue through the inside of his smacked cheek. He soon followed her, increasing his speed as he went.
Yuna opened the door and threw the keys on the kitchen table. She heard him enter soon after.
"Just put them on the kitchen table, and leave." She loudly said and went into the bathroom. She heard the sound of the door slamming shut and re- entered the living room to check if he really was gone. She saw the pots on the kitchen table and no one else in the room. She sighed and went back into the bathroom. She needed a shower.
She stripped her soaked clothes from her body and shivered slightly when the cold air touched her skin. She took a clean towel out of the cupboard and put it on the toilet flap. She opened the sliding shower door and turned the hot water open to let it run, while she took off her bra and panties. Stepping into the shower, she immediately relaxed. She had been so tensed... she really needed this.
She let out a sigh when the hot water ran over her body and slid the door shut behind her. This had been a horrible night... it had started horribly and it had ended horribly. Sighing again, she took the shower cream and a soft sponge, pressing the soap into it. She gently squeezed it against her throat, running it up to her neck, closing her eyes. Sliding with it to her one arm she looked at the softsoap foam forming on it. She ran it across her chest and further down her body until she had to bend over the reach her knees.
"Asshole..." she suddenly whispered, thinking back at the way Tidus had looked at her earlier on. Who the hell did he think he was?! He had a girlfriend! Her best friend on top of that! How could he even think of looking at her that way?! She chuckled and shook her head.
"And to think that I wanted to make him jealous...! How stupid can you be?!" She whispered to herself, scrubbing her kneecaps. "Fuckin' bastard..."
She slowly rose and froze as she heard the shower door slid open. She wanted to turn around to look at the person, but got violently pushed against the shower wall, her cheek pressing against the wet surface.
"You wanted to make me... jealous?" A voice whispered next to her ear, licking it briefly. "I'm flattered, babe. Means you did miss me."
Yuna tried to scream, but couldn't as she felt him closing a hand around her throat. "What are you doing?!" she hoarsely whispered, face still pressed against the wall.
He chuckled and made a 'tssk, tssk'- sound. "You know very well what I'm going to do, babe... are you that naïve?" He asked pressing her harder against the wall, making her whimper in pain. "Are you?" he said.
She gasped and softly whimpered as his hand around her throat tightened. "W-why are you doing this?" she struggled to whisper, her hot tears mingling with the equally hot water.
He didn't answer, but brusquely entered her from behind.
"No!" Yuna shrieked, feeling her muscles painfully stretch at his intruding member. "Stop! P-please!" she whimpered, as he violently pumped in and out of her and pulled her to him with his one free hand.
"You just... don't realise... what you've done... to me..." He whispered, plunging faster and harder inside of her while she was pressed against the wall, crying. He bit into her left earlobe and smiled when he heard her pained whimper.
She was in so much pain...and she was so scared...she couldn't move; her body pressed against the wall and his wet body grinding against her back, roughly pushing her against the wet tiles every time he came in. "St- Stop... stop..." she painfully sobbed. "PLEASE!"
"Because of you... I got expelled from the team... I got humiliated and lost all of my credibility... You and your... president's son..." he said, enjoying her pained sobs. "I never... ever would've expected such treason from... you... you of all... people, Yuna." He breathed against her shoulder, setting more pressure on his hand on her hip.
Yuna couldn't do anything else but sob and whimper in pain. She hadn't known that... she hadn't known that he had gotten expelled...How could she have? He had left Bevelle the day after the conflict with Seymour; she hadn't seen him since.
"I didn't know..." she whispered, face contracted in pain.
He thrust hard inside of her in response.
Yuna screamed.
He had definitely broken something... she could feel it.
"You didn't know? YOU DIDN'T KNOW?" he yelled, putting more force in his strokes, making her scream over and over, her body slammed against the wall each time.
Yuna started to taste blood in her mouth. Why didn't he believe her? Why didn't he just stop? He had totally broken her now; mentally and physically. She couldn't do anything. Was it that he wanted? Why wasn't he stopping? Why?
"Had enough?" he loudly whispered, not slowing down. She just whimpered and kept her eyes tightly shut; the pain was too much. He had played it so well... the whole evening...she didn't get the slightest clue that this had been waiting for her…
"What was that?" he asked, tightening his hand around her neck again. She couldn't answer him as her body was violently taken over by tremors of her sudden orgasm. He groaned and let go of her.
"You really are a whore, aren't you?" he smirked, withdrawing.
Yuna slid to the floor and crawled herself into a foetus position against the wall. She felt ashamed, stupid, used and... like trash. She continued to cry, hiding her face from his gaze. He just looked down at her with utter disgust.
"I will never forgive you or your boyfriend for this... you will definitely regret it, I swear." he said, opening the shower door.
He walked away and left her there, sobbing on the wet floor, pressing herself against the wall, arms held up protectively against her head. Yuna continued to cry hot tears for hours, drawing in shaky breaths, trembling uncontrollably, all alone in her cold bathroom.
The horrible evening had started awfully as expected... but had ended in a nightmare...
