Chapter 3---

Heated Turnouts

"Ah! Found it!" Ryoma suddenly snapped back to reality as it looked like Sakuno found the long lost rolling onion.

"Oh shoot…I'm starting to think too much", Ryoma whispered to himself. He was blaming his father for all of this. He tried to get back to sleeping but somehow, he went back to staring at Sakuno.

It's a good thing that Sakuno was oblivious to this.

Sakuno continued to do her work while Ryoma continued to stare at her. It has been pretty unusual because Ryoma never looked at a woman with so much interest before. It's as if he was suddenly hypnotized by the sudden beauty of Sakuno Ryuzaki.

"I think this will be finished soo— " Sakuno just suddenly got the shivers, 'I-I feel like somebody is watching me…c-could it be…'

Ryoma noticed that Sakuno stopped what she was doing. He was almost wondering why but then he suddenly realized why she stopped. Ryoma then automatically closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep just in time as Sakuno turned around to his direction.

"Mou, hang in there Sakuno. You're being paranoid again," she then continued what she was doing. After letting go a long, low sigh.

He heard Sakuno heaved a big sigh and he could already smell a good aroma coming from her cooking. Thinking that it was already safe, he slowly opened his eyes at the same time Sakuno heard him call his name.

"Ryoma-kun, the Sukiyaki is done. You can eat now."

"Hai…" Ryoma stood up, stretched a little and went to the kitchen, "Itadakimasu."

"A-ano…Ryoma-kun…"

"Eh?" Ryoma stopped eating and looked at Sakuno. He then just realized how cute his face was whenever she's stuttering.

"H-how was it?" Sakuno was stuttering again, "M-my cookin of course."

"Ah…" Ryoma swallowed a piece of meat, "its good I guess…"

"Honto desu ka?"

"Hai…"

"Sorry that it took me quite a while to cook them…" Sakuno fidgeted in her seat a little

"It's okay," Ryoma then smirked, "I was having fun—"

"Eh?"

"—sleeping that is" Ryoma added as he continued eating.

"Ano…Ryoma-kun,"

"Nande?" Ryoma looked up.

"Can I use you bathroom? I really need a bath right now."

"Sure—" he added just as Sakuno was leaving, "oh, our bathroom right there doesn't run any water so use the one in my bedroom. Oyaji says he'll fix it today but that old man is so lazy. I think I'll just call a plumber later."

"Hai. Domo Arigatou!" then Sakuno rushed upstairs to Ryoma's room.

Few minutes passed and Ryoma was back in the sofa thinking again as he understood the situation, 'oh shit oh shit...she's really taking a bath there, and she's already in my room and she's taking a bath and she's very naked,' he was imagining Sakuno as she was stripping off her clothes and getting in the shower. He was imagining the water that pours down on her naked body. He was becoming harder just thinking that he would ambush her right there in the showers, naked, unaware and vulnerable. 'Stupid old man.' And he was back on blaming his father because of this.

A scream was heard suddenly that snapped Ryoma away from his dreamland. He realized it was Sakuno and he immediately rushed up to his room. Just as he was about to open the door, he pulled his hand away from the doorknob as though it was electrocuted. Much as he wanted to see Sakuno naked, he remained calm and knocked at the door although he was worried what was happening there, "Ryuzaki, Daijoubu?—Ryuzaki? Ryuzaki?"

He kept on knocking at the door as the door opened slightly and Sakuno appeared, her head and one of her shoulders in plain sight of Ryoma's view. She's very wet, still naked and Ryoma noticed that her hair was not in braids.

His heart was beating faster, and not just his heart but another part of him was throbbing so much. He was having a hard time controlling himself. Sure Ryoma is known for being good at self control and discipline but the prospect of naked Sakuno is making him loose his senses. Especially as the scent of a girl who just took a bath wafted through his nostrils and is intoxicating him.

"What's wrong Ryuzaki?" but first he needed to regain composure."

"A-ano, eto..." Sakuno have no idea what to do now, "Its—it's just that…ano, my clothes…"

'She's stuttering again, is she nervous because of me?' "What's the problem with your clothes?"

"They—they fell in the tub and they got wet. And, and I didn't bring any extra clothes with me."

"Oh I see," he smirked inwardly at the sight of Sakuno being nervous probably because she doesn't have any clothes left to wear and she's naked inside a man's house. He was ever so tempted to tell her that just be naked but he decided against it, he was still a gentleman after all. "That's no problem, you can borrow mine."

"Honto ni?" Sakuno smiled. "Arigatou!"

Several moments later, Ryoma was back bringing his clothes with him. He handed it to Sakuno through the slightly opened door. "Here you go. It's a little big but it's better right?"

"Arigatou Ryoma-kun" She then took Ryoma's clothes, "Ne, Ryoma-kun…"

"Eh?"

"Ryoma-kun really cares right?" Sakuno smiled as Ryoma was slightly taken aback, "I mean you really care about everybody. You always appear like you don't care but you are always there when someone needed help, Even though you are always denying this…right?—Ah, gomen. It's just that…ah-ano…I just noticed and I wanted t-to tell you, Th-that's all…"

Then they started staring at each other for no particular reason. Ryoma was surprised to hear Sakuno talked a lot except the time when he was going to the US Open. It feels like he became oblivious to everything except the girl in front of him. He didn't know what to do, he became a little confused and another fact added is that that girl is naked in front of him and the door is the only thing that hides her body. He could easily wretch that door open but thought better of it.

"Iie," Ryoma shook his head, "but if that's what you think then whatever."

Just as he was about to turn around and leave-much to his own reluctance, he accidentally stepped on Karupin's tail. The cat let out a hiss and Ryoma lost his balance due to surprise.

Guess where he landed…

Ryoma lost his balance and ended up hitting the door which Sakuno had not yet closed. The door was forced open and he landed on top of Sakuno.

They couldn't speak at first; it seems that their reactions got a little late. Their faces almost an each apart and they could feel each other's breaths. Unaware, Ryoma's hands pinned Sakuno's arms to the floor and his feet was positioned between Sakuno's legs. Ryoma seems to be a little lost in thought for a while before he realized the situation and he got up suddenly turning his back on Sakuno.

"A-Gomen…nasai" It's a good thing that Ryoma had his back on Sakuno or else she'll see hin blushing very furiously for the first time. He felt a little bit of disappointment though because even though accidentally, he didn't get to see Sakuno's body-- 'Shit what was I thinking. But she was still naked and I could—Yamete Ryoma…control.'

He tried to control himself but it feels like his senses were leaving him. His heart was beating faster every second and he badly wanted to release his hardness inside her. His mind was running—as in running away from him.

"Ah-ano…Ryoma-kun—"

…and all that's left in him was his instincts…

Additional notes:
