Word count: 446

Pairings (throughout the story): HatorixTohru, with mentions of KyoxKagura and YukixMachi

A/N: This is how I would think it would go down if Hatori tried getting it on with Tohru for the first time. Or something LOL

I won't say what she's wearing, because maybe it's scandalous, but...it's pretty provocative. Maybe. I don't know.

Enjoy!

U is for "Undress"

They had been through this before, sleeping with each other in bed. They had never gone past just sleeping in bed, but he forced himself to make sure it never made it past that. He wanted to make sure she was ready. And at that moment, it looked like she wasn't ready. She was just staring at the bed, while he stood behind her.

"Tohru, you don't possibly think you'll be sleeping with me," she blushed, "in those clothes, do you?" She looked down. She forgot she was wearing jeans.

"O-O-Oh! N-N-No! I-I-I'll go change!" As she turned around, he held out his arms and let her hit his chest. Soon enough, he kept her in his arms.

"Don't be silly, let me help you," he could feel her squirming. She mumbled something like: "H-H-H-Hatori! U-U-Uh…" He just smiled. "A-A-Are you trying t-t-to u-u-u-u-undress me?" she buried her head against his chest more.

For a minute, it was quiet. He imagined her cute face flustered and red, not knowing what to say. Her faces always made him smile. He was going to close his eyes and rest his head on top of hers, but she started to move away from his body. With a little space between the two, she kept her head down while he looked down at her.

Then she softly whispered: "I-If I-I take off y-your shirt, c-can I go change?" He just stared at her, as she started to unbutton his shirt. For the first time, with a woman, he felt nervous. What was she doing?

Soon enough, he felt naked as she unbuttoned the last button near the top of the shirt. Her hands slid down his bare skin, making him shiver at her touch. "Tohru," he whispered. His shirt fell to the ground, and as soon as he stepped forward to lean in for a chaste kiss, she glanced into his eyes. Something stopped him.

"I'll be right back," she said, rushing out the door. He felt flushed. But he called back to her:

"What do I get out of you taking off my shirt?" She took a minute to reply, but when she peeked around the corner, his eyebrows rose.

"Y-Y-Y-Y-You'll see," she whispered. He felt his world spinning and had to sit on the edge of the bed. His body ached; it was her first night, and it was amazing how she made him feel by just talking.

When he saw her come back, it wasn't just words that made him feel attached to her.

It was words and sex appeal. He took no chance to skip out on anything. He made sure one thing led to another.
