The only reason I wasn't okay with this pair off was because I knew Reito was going to try and worm his way back into Shizuru's . . . actually I don't want to think about what he's trying to worm his way back into. I just know he's gonna try and make himself look good in front of her. Somehow. Just thinking about that "Somehow" part made me want to tear off his head. Which I would have been able to do a few moments ago if Nao didn't but in.
"Nao w-why are you doing this? Hey s-slow down!." Nao was pulling (dragging really) me along with her.
"Relax. You worry too much."
"I have very good reasons to worry. Still I need to know. Why Kanzaki?" Nao stopped and I bump slightly into her.
"Why that stupid girl?"
"What? What's that suppose to mean?"
"You know damn well what I mean!" I was dumbfounded. What could it be that Nao was so irritated about?
"Nao are . . .are you jealous? Do you feel jealous of Shizuru?" Nao turned and looked at me with fierce eyes.
"Don't flatter yourself! I' am not jealous of some stupid little girl!" Nao stomped her foot on the ground.
"You . . . Nao I-I'm sorry. Is it because I messed things up? Or is it because – –
"Just shut up! Forget it. It doesn't matter lets . . . lets just go and do something."
"Nao? I'm sorry. I know . . . I know I messed up. And I know I haven't been myself lately. But I . . ." I trailed off. I had no idea what too said to her right now. I had no excuse for my behavior as of late, but I knew in some way I must be hurting Nao.
"Just come off it okay. Come on we're wasting time."
"O-okay." Nao pulled me again along with her.
Meanwhile on the other side of the park . . .
"So, what would you like to do first?"
"Um, I don't know. I haven't decided yet."
"Oh, I see." Reito uncrossed his arm and scratched his head.
"Would you like to do anything Reito?" Shizuru asked him in the sweetest way possible.
"W-well I- I um . . . how about we go on that?" Reito pointed over to the Tilt-A-Whirled ride.
Shizuru smiled and nodded as the both made their way over to the ride. They weren't able to sit together they had to share due to the fact the ride was filled up. It wasn't long before Reito had to get off the ride seeing as how he lost his lunch.
"Ha ha ha ha! I guess it's a good thing we got separated. Huh Reito?" Shizuru continued to laugh at Reito who was slumping over a trash can.
"I (burps) I d-don't l-like th-that ride!"
"You're the one who picked it out though. Remember?"
"Pl-please . . . (gulps) don't remind me . . ." Shizuru began to laugh again and said
"Oh! Lets go on the Sling Shot ride!" Shizuru pointed to the ride that was a few feet back from them. Reito saw it. How that ride would shoot you up into the air and go up and down back and forth really, really fast.
"NO WAY! ABSOLUTELY NOT!! There is no way I'm getting on that thing!"
"Okay fine then . . . how about the Tea cups?"
"Tea cups? That doesn't sound so bad. Okay lets go." Reito seemed to like that idea better and by that time he had finished losing the rest of his lunch. They walked over to the Tea Cups and sat in this purple one with gold trimming around it. The ride had started but something caught Reito's eye.
"Um, Shizuru w-why are the other Tea Cups spinning?" Shizuru looked around and then looked down at the wheel in the center of their Tea Cup.
"Oh well, I think it's because of this wheel. Shizuru placed her hands on either side of the wheel and began turning it. She spun it faster and faster.
"HHEEY!! SLOW DOWN NOT SO FAST!!" Reito was screaming like a little baby.
"THIS IS SO COOL!" Shizuru just kept spinning it faster then the last time.
"NOT SO FAST!!"
"WHAT DID YOU SAY? GO FASTER? OKAY!"
"NNNOOO!! STOP THIS THING!!" Reito gripped onto Shizuru's stuffed dog. Grabbing a hold of anything and hanging on to it for dear life.
Once the ride was over Shizuru hopped out of the Tea Cup first and Reito followed stumbling after, still hanging onto the stuffed dog. Reito had lost all color in his face and looked like he was about to keel over. Shizuru looked on in concern.
"Reito are you going to be all right?" But before he can give an answer, he fainted. Shizuru shook her head and bent down and picked up Duran. She put him under her right arm, then she took hold of Reito's arm and dragged him over to the nearest bench.
Back on the other side with Natsuki and Nao . . .
"Nao I really don't want to go on that."
"Why not it so cute! And it's perfect for us!" Nao put her hand just underneath my shirt. I knew what she was getting at.
"N-Nao! This-this is no time for – –
"Of course there's time. Just come on." Nao started to drag me (once again) over to that stupid ride.
"I said no! I don't want too."
"But why not?"
"Well the thought of riding in a giant wooden-shaped replica of a swan makes me feel . . . a tiny bit nervous." Nao was pouting. (Man she looks so cute.)
"Why so wound up? It'll be fine." I sighed. You really can't get through to this woman. We took a seat on one of the (and I use the term loosely) stupid swans. (I can't believe Nao would even want to go on this. What's with her? She's cold one minute, hot the next. (Well she's always hot) But the Tunnel of Love . . . really?) We were going thru the tunnel when I became startled, by soft warm lips that were attached to my neck.
"Ah! N-Nao w-what are . . . you doing?" I felt like I couldn't moved. My breathing became shallow, as Nao moved her hand down and started to unzip my jeans.
"Just relax. You're so up tight."
"B-but Nao . . . Ah! –no s-stop! We can't . . ."
"Who says we can't? Hmm?" She was sucking on my neck and she finally slipped her hand inside my jeans. (No! Th-this is . . . wrong. We can't . . . not in a public place. B-but I- I . . .)
"Nao . . . I . . . mmm."
"Hmm? You what?" I was putty in her hands in an instant. So I did the only thing I could do. I reached both my hands up to Nao's shirt and started to unbutton it. I slipped my hand in and squeezed her left breast. She moved away from my neck and let out a sweet soft moan. I captured her lips with my own. Nao pulled away after a few seconds.
"See, I knew you wanted to do this."
"Don't talk. We don't have much time, before the ride ends." I said to Nao in almost a whisper.
"Then lets make the most of it." It was the last things me and Nao said to each other, as we continued our make-out session. (Actually we practically, well just nearly had sex. I wonder though how far we could have gone if the ride lasted more then just five minutes . . . ?)
After the ride (and fixing up our clothes) Nao had asked me if I wanted to go on the Zipper ride.
"Zipper? What the hell is the Zipper?" I asked her curiously.
"That of course. I can't believe you don't know what that is." Nao pointed to the ride. As soon as I saw it, it brought back a whole mess load of memories for me. That I seriously didn't need to remember at all. (The first time me and Nao went on the thing . . . I couldn't eat any solid foods for a whole week!)
"I don't think so. I'll pass."
"Don't be such a downer. Come on Kuga that rides way cool." (Man she sounds like a little kid.)
"No way, nothing doing." Nao was so mad I swear I saw steam coming out of her ears.
"Oh yes you are!"
"He-hey Nao! WAIT!" Somehow no matter how much I kicked and screamed I still ended up on the ride.
An hour later . . .
"Oh man, I feel so hammered." My head felt so groggy, it felt like I had been run over by 20 trucks and a single school bus.
"What do you mean hammered? How can you be hammered? You didn't even drink!"
"I DON'T NEED A DRINK TO FEEL THAT WAY! GOING ON THAT WAS EXCRUCIATING! BUT AFTER GOING ON THAT THING I COULD SURE USE ONE!" Shouting at Nao wasn't doing me any good. All it did was make my head hurt even more.
"Natsuki! Juliet! Over here!" It was Shizuru calling out to us.
"Hey!" (I'm glad she's alright!) (Smiles) We walked over to a very excited Shizuru and a completely knocked out Reito.
"Hey, so did you have fun? And what happened to him?" I asked bluntly.
"Oh, he just had a little too much fun! Hey since we'll all back why don't we do something together this time." Nao and I looked at each other then we both looked back at Shizuru. I shrugged my shoulders.
"Okay I guess. Lets go for it." I re-composed myself for the moment, and felt up to going on another ride.
"Could, could we go on the Bumper Cars?" (Wow, Shizuru looked so adorable. Her face just lit up. She must be having a really good time . . . despite the fact we got "intruded" on by Nao and Reito.)
"Yeah that sounds like fun. I'm up for that." Nao, Shizuru and I seemed to agree on that . . . the only one who didn't was Reito. Well he couldn't kinda speak for himself at the moment. But we went on ahead dragging him along with us, where he finally snapped out of it.
"Are . . .are you sure these, things are safe?"
"Tch! Not with you driving." I muttered to myself. It wasn't safe for anyone if Reito was behind the wheel of a car. Vehicles or otherwise.
"Yeah, yeah there fine." Reito's a damn moron. (I'm gonna bump him but good! It's pay back time buddy!)
"One yeah is enough Natsuki."
"Yeah, yeah." (Smiles) (I'll annoy this guy every chance I get!)
I picked out a green one and Nao picked out a hot pink car. Reito picked out a red car while Shizuru had picked out a purple car. As soon as everyone got the ok to go. I directly made my way toward Reito.
"OOWW! THAT HURT!!" I laughed and then headed toward Nao. To pay her back for earlier on the "Swan".
"OW! Hey what's your deal! Watch it!"
"HAHAHA!! You guys should learn how to drive!" Reito didn't know how to work his bumper car and stayed in one spot (spinning in a circle) the whole time. It was just freaking hilarious. (Now the only one left is . . . Shizuru.) As I started to go in for a hit in her I stopped. (I-I can't do it.) For some reason I didn't wanna bump her, I didn't want to hurt her. So instead she hit me.
"Ow! Hey that hurt! Come on I didn't do anything to you!"
"HA HAHA! You snooze, you loose Natsuki!" (You snooze, you loose? I think by bringing her here . . . I ruined her innocents.) After the (back breaking aching pain) Bumper cars, Nao suggested we go to the Hunted House.
"I don't know. Shizuru what do you say?"
"Um, well I would like to experience that. At least once if anything." I smiled. (Can she possibly look anymore cute than she does right now? No, no what am I thinking? Great not only am I kinda of cheating on Nao with Shizuru by taking her out . . . I'm mentally cheating on her as well. Just great Natsuki . . . just freaking fantastic.) After a few minutes of Reito's outburst (at me no less) we headed over to the Hunted House. It was a walk in one which was kind of cool. (You don't see to many of those now a days. This could be interesting.)
"AAHH!!" Shizuru screamed as soon as we walked in. Okay it was a little dark but the light came on right away. Shizuru had grabbed onto my arm firmly.
"Shizuru, its fine see." Shizuru nodded, but she still hung onto me. We walked a little further when a stupid plastic bat jumps out in from of me.
"AH! STUPID BAT!" I smacked that thing but good. So hard in fact I broke the string it was dangling from. Nao laughed softly.
"Good work Kuga. You took down that mean old bat!"
"Whatever, lets just get to the next section of this dumb house okay." Everyone said yes and we continued to stroll through the house. It didn't last long till we all heard a high pitched squeal. (It sounded almost similar to Nao's.) I looked over to see Reito on the floor backing up against the wall, trying to get away from the mummy dummy (hey! That rhymes!) that popped out from behind the sliding doorway.
"Are you serious? Man you're pathetic . . . it's just sad."
"Sh-SHUT UP!" Reito stood up against the wall. Just then I heard another person cry out. It was Shizuru. She was assaulting the other dummy which was a vampire with her stuffed dog. (Poor Duran.) I walked over to her. When the "Vampire" reappeared from the coffin, I punched it in the nose.
"See Shizuru. It can't hurt you. It's just some cheap plastic stuff." Nao began to laugh. I guess her seeing Shizuru terrified amused her.
"I-I feel so foolish I . . . Ah!"
"Shizuru!" Shizuru had stepped back and lost her footing. I caught her but it looked like she may have hurt herself.
"Shizuru are you hurt?" She shook her head.
"No . . . but my ankle hurts a little."
"I'll carry you. Until it feels better." I bent down facing my back to her.
"What!? But Kuga she said her . . . she said she didn't get – –
"Her ankle hurts. So I'll just give her a piggy back ride til then." Nao glared at me and crossed her arms.
"Uh, But maybe I should do that. After all I'm the man here." (Yeah right! After that screaming. I'm more manly than you pal.)
"I got it Reito. I can handle it." Reito snorted. (Guess this makes him feel like less of a man than he already does.)
"Ok Shizuru. Just hang on."
"But Natsuki . . . are you sure? I'm fine really."
"Just get on. Don't worry." Shizuru got on my back. To my amazement she was very light. (Maybe it's because of all that tea she drinks. Who knows?) Reito was carrying Duran while I carried Shizuru. Guess he thought he should do something. We all walked out of the Hunted House and went over to the Ball tossing booth, where Reito wanted to test out his skills. (More like show off.) But it didn't go so well (no big surprise) as he threw the ball with such force it bounced off just the on the edge under the bottles. It bounced back and hit him right square in the nose, making him fall back and mash into the hot dog cart. We all laughed so hard, best laugh I had in years. After a while (when Reito got back from the med. center in the amusement park) he payed off the damaged to the man's hot dog cart.
"See Reito, it's only funny until someone get's hurt. Then its hilarious!" I laughed so hard I slapped my knee.
"Why you . . .how dare you. Ahem Well I think I had enough fun for one day. I'm going home. Care to join me Juliet?" (What? Is-is he asking if he can go home with her? NO WAY! NOT IN – –
"Okay Reito. I had enough excitement myself for one day." (WHAT! Nao you can't be serious?) Shizuru hopped off my back.
"So you guys are leaving? Well I had a lot of fun with you two. We should do it again sometime."
"Yeah, we will. Real soon." When Nao said that she seemed to have a glint in her eyes. Nao walked over to Shizuru and handed back her stuffed dog. The way she said that though meant she was up too no good. Reito nodded as well. He started to walkaway and called out to him.
"Hey Reito. Don't walk away mad. Just walk away." I laughed again. (I think I'm really pushing his buttons. Man this guys so ridiculous.)
"What! What did you say? I'm gonna – –
"I think me and Shizuru will hang here though just for a little longer." Nao walked over to me and raised her hand up. (Oh man, is she gonna hit me?) Instead she just flicked me on my nose.
"Don't get home too late."
"O-okay." (What? What's with her? She acting so different from before. What happened I wonder? Is her acting so weird caused by her meeting Reito?)
"I'll see you later Natsuki Kuga. Don't think I'll forget about you're insults." With that Reito and Nao left leaving Shizuru and me alone again. (Finally took long enough. But I have to admit it was fun and funny. Especially the part we're Reito got decked with that ball. And how she . . .oops. I mean "he" screamed like a little girl. Heheheh.)
"Natsuki?"
"Oh yeah. Shizuru how's your ankle?"
"Um, I'm fine now. But I wanted to ask you. What's that mark on your neck?" I placed my hand on my neck and over the spot where she was pointing too.
"My neck? Oh-no." (Damn, Nao must have left a mark there when we we're in that stupid swan. Need to think fast.)
"W-well you see. It's kind of hot out tonight so . . . it must have been a mosquito. Yeah that's all."
"Of course. You're right. It is rather hot out tonight." Shizuru smiled. How can she believe whatever I tell her? (She had to be playing me. I know it. I mean she knew I was lying that first day we met. She called me on it too, she said that I'm not a good liar. So why — ) I was cut off in my train of thought by Shizuru who was pulling at my arm.
"Natsuki, lets go on the Ferris Wheel. And you still own me that Cotton Candy." She laughed and smiled sweetly.
"Yeah that's true. Lets go then." (I hope Nao's not angry with me. I need to make up with her somehow. But how? Well I'll think about that later. Right now I should be focused on Shizuru.)
