Alright let's push that barrier. Most likely going to be M, but let's see what happens.

"Haha. Alright quit joking Yuuki." Risa said as Rito looked seriously into her eyes. "We both know you really don't feel that way about me."

"I do!" The conviction in his voice was something that caught her off guard. "I mean Risa…" The use of the first name. A powerful tool to get attention. "Risa, I've fallen for you. I know it. And from how you kissed me, I'm guessing you like me too."

"Uuuh." She was stuck. The tone he was using was much different from what she was used to and it left her defenseless. She's never seen this side of her friend before. "Risa, please I know you like me. You looked so distraught when I mentioned you and not Haruna during the confession. It's bothering you."

She kept silent as he wrapped her arms around her waist. "Don't try to hide it Risa. I like you, Risa." If this was some cruel yet pleasurable dream Risa was really split on waking up or continuing. Rito felt things were going on her mind and lifted his lips to her neck.

Risa sighed a hot breath as the warm plush sensation of lips pressed softly against her flesh. "I-I like you too, Rito, bu-but what about Lala and, AAH, Haruna." He started nibbling her neck and his hands expertly roamed over her back. "I like them too, but...it's complicated. I can explain later, but first would you like to kiss again? I really liked that."

It would be a red flag to hear it was complicated, but Risa couldn't care less. Besides how could she not say no to him. "Yes." Rito stopped leaving marks over her neck and kissed Risa. Their lips meshed perfectly together with each one moving in perfect synchronization. The sounds of their kisses grew louder with each passing second and both fought for dominance in the situation.

Rito put up a good fight, but Risa got the final say in the matter and held his head in her hands. She slightly lifted herself up as she angled her head to make things more comfortable for herself. Rito started leaning back slowly with each small push Risa made. Soon his back was against the ground and his hands grasped her butt and Risa moaned with the contact.

She pulled away from the kiss and a line of spit was the only thing between their lips. "Damn Rito. For a guy who's never kissed anyone properly, you are quite the expert."

"Would you believe me if it was a natural talent?" He said sheepishly.

"That would explain a lot, but first Rito enough with the shy look." She slid her hand down his cheek and pecked his lips once more. "If you want this, you gotta show me that want this." He smiled before reclaiming her lips and the two went closer to the line. They were moving at a moderate pace as Risa felt something against her lower half of her body.

"Oh? Is little Rito at full attention?"

"Um, maybe?" Rito nervously chuckled. "I'm sorry."

She kissed the underside of his chin. "Don't be." Risa could feel her chest just bursting with happiness and Rito could tell by the beating of her heart against his. "It's nice."

They laid still for a minute before hearing a small ring. They both sat up and Rito looked to see it was his little sister. Risa watched him answer the call before turning away and wondering what to do next. The night was still young and the two just confessed their feelings. Something had to happen, right?

She heard Rito say bye to his sister and hung up. He looked disappointed for some reason. "Rito?"

"Um, sorry Risa, but I'm needed back home. Our mother is visiting and wants me to come by for dinner. I actually haven't seen in a little while so I…"

"I got it, Rito." She said. If her parents wanted to spend time with Risa was more than willing to drop most things. Besides she needed a little bit of time to process what just happened. "Actually I could bring over for dinner if you want. I mean you're not intruding or anything!"

"No, no I understand Rito. Go have some family time, you don't need to worry about me. Although could you walk me home. After all you wouldn't leave a girl alone on a night like this, would you?"

"N-No! Here I'll walk with you." She held onto his arm and relaxed against it like one of those romantic movie cliches. "Mm, you're so sweet Rito." Rito smiled underneath his blush and the two walked to Risa's house. However on their way over, Rito and Risa's eyes looked at the hotel signs and at some of the couples entering said hotels. Risa licked her lips at doing such an activity while Rito tried his best to suppress it. It seemed a little fast for Rito at the moment.

He wasn't one to make a move so early. Risa knew this as well, but decided to see if he was still shy around her teases. "You know Rito, maybe we're out together we should rent a room."

"Wha-Wha-WHA! R-R-Risa, you can't be serious! I-I mean that would be nice, but that's a little much right."

"Oh come now, darling!~" Risa said as she pressed her chest against his arm for an extra measure. "It's not like you'll see anything new. It'll just be a more in depth experience." She snickered at Rito's red shade grow deeper as evidence he's getting some ideas. She busted out laughing and seemed to catch some of Rito's annoyance.

"Haha! I'm sorry Rito, but I couldn't help it. I was just wondering if you could still get teased. And I guess I was right." Rito slightly bowed his head as to cover his eyes with his bangs. "But hey, all in good fun right?" He stopped next to an alley and gave Risa a look.

"Rito?"

"Alright, it's a date."

"Huh?" She said blankly. He seemed to swallow something hard and gave her a small smile. "Whenever we're out again, I'll take to those hotels and we'll spend the night together." Those words were something that were never meant for human ears. Really, human and alien ears as there was a third character that just stumbled upon them. Mea.

'What?! Did Rito-senpai just agree to do spend a shameless night with Momioka-senpai?! Oh my, how will Momo handle such news? Oh, this is too good to be true.' The assassin needed to see the youngest princess and soon.

Risa could feel her heart began to beat faster than ever with surprise and anticipation. "S-Sure, that sounds like a plan."

'Is this really happening?!' They both thought. They didn't realize they finally made it to Risa's doorstep and their night together has come to an end. "Oh well here we are. Oh did I leave my lights on this morning?"

"Probably." Rito said as Risa unhooked her arm and faced Rito. "Hey, I had...a lot of fun tonight. Especially since we, um, got things out."

"O-Oh yeah. Well I mean this night was something." He looked at her nervously and wondered where the confidence he had went. Risa rolled her eyes and gave him a chaste kiss. Rito put his hands on her cheek as he slightly deepened it. She moaned softly as her enjoyment started to get better of her. Risa could feel herself grow more aroused at the thought of what taking the steps forward would feel like if a kiss was this euphoric.

The two started to lose themselves in their own world until the door opened behind them and the sounds of two adult gasps could be heard. Their eyes snapped open and looked to see Risa's parents standing at the doorway.

"Mom! Dad!" Risa said in more horrified shock than pleasant shock. "Risa." They said together. Rito and Risa didn't notice they were still holding each other. Her parents looked and their vision became so romanticized.

Sparkles, little stars in the teens eyes, and a bright pink background surrounded Risa and Rito. Risa's father had the brightest star in his eyes while her mother was laughing loudly and at the same time was crying waterfalls.

"Our baby girl has a boyfriend!"

"Oh, this is wonderful! I never thought the day would come when my girl brings a man home! Tell me is your name Yuuki Rito?"

"Y-Yes." Her mother squealed even louder to the point the only thing matching it was Risa's embarrassment. Her father looked at her with a sly grin. "I thought you said he was just your classmate."

"H-He is. He is my classmate."

"Who happens to be our baby girl's lover! Our prayers have been met!"

"What?! You prayed I got a boyfriend?!" Risa asked as Rito lost track of was going on. "Or a girlfriend. If men were not your taste, we could always accept Mio as our second daughter."

"Kaa-san!" Risa said indignantly. Her father slid next to Rito and picked up his arm. "You seem like a charming young lad. Would you like to come in? Our home is open to the boy our girl seems to have fallen for."

Rito chuckled nervously and looked at Risa, who had her face in hands. "I'm sorry sir, but I'm actually needed back at home. My mother's visiting us and would like to spend time with me and my sister."

"Oh of course, of course. Just remember our home is open. Dear, why don't we leave these two alone while we prepare dinner."

"Of course. Now keep your hands to yourself. We don't want things to get too crazy, now do we." Risa and Rito froze at that sentence as they remembered what was proposed earlier. The door closed, but they could feel Risa's parents looking through a window.

Risa looked at Rito and rubbed her arm. "You know all this time with them away, I forgot how embarrassing they are sometimes."

"That's fine. I know a thing or two about eccentric parents. Speaking of which, I better get home." Risa smiled at his optimism and understanding nature. If she could fall any deeper for him it would be too soon. "Then you better go. Goodnight, Rito."

He leaned in for a goodnight kiss, but Risa stopped him. "Don't you think you got enough of those." He rubbed the back of his head. "I mean we were interrupted."

Risa's confident grin came back and traced her finger on his chest. "It's not my fault for swollen lips." They kissed one last time and it didn't last as long as the others, but Rito had somewhere to be.

"Goodnight Rito."

"Goodnight Risa." She watched him walk off until she could no longer see them. The second he was gone, Risa jumped up and down in victory in gaining Rito's affection and by the looks of it the first one he did with intent. She opened the door with a love struck face and smiled like she was drunk. Her parents were sitting at the table with coffee and simply wished her goodnight.

Risa waved them goodnight and she dived headfirst into her bed. The moonlight bathed over her as she sighed with content. "He's mine. He's actually mine!" She faintly ran a finger across her lips and could feel how swollen they were. 'My Yuuki.'

Rito finally made it to his house and opened to the smell of freshly cooked food and the sounds of the people he loves. In reality, Rito was tired yet energized. Being with Risa sparked something in him. Their time together has made Rito more bold. He could bear Lala's mishaps more and made a continuous effort to confess to Haruna.

And strangely enough nothing changed for them. Recalling from old romantic movies Mikan used to watch, when a man falls for a woman no other can take their place. Yet when he recalls Lala or Haruna with Risa, nothing changes. Haruna makes him blush and the kindness she granted him still rocks his world to this day. Lala, who started as a pain, became his closest friend and helped him grow. And her love was easily reciprocated. Now Risa was the same. A girl he knows that changed him for the better. Her confidence oozed and left an imprint on him. And she was what he could be with a stronger self-esteem. Straight-forward, relaxed, and overall able to show confidence in decision as well as love.

They didn't just change him, but the qualities that initiated that change makes each girl claim a piece of his heart. Rito also thought about how Risa could make him an animal in kissing. He never kissed a girl willingly and yet he seemed a natural. Maybe Doctor Mikado was right. He had a gift and it was gift he could use to show the girls he loves how much he loves them.

"Ah, Rito. Nice of you to finally come by." Mikan said as she set down a plate of food. "Aw, how's my handsome boy?"

"I'm fine Kaa-san."

"Rito!" Two cheerful voices said. He turned to see Lala and Momo looking right at him. Nana waved a hello at him and sat at the table. "How was your time out Rito? Did you enjoy yourself?"

Momo leaned closer to Rito. "Yes, Rito-san. Did you enjoy yourself?" There was mischievous glint in her eyes. "Um yes. I went around town and had some food."

"Hopefully you didn't eat too much. Mikan's been improving her cooking skills and I must know if she's gotten better."

"I'm not so sure." Mikan said humbly. Ringo and others said thanks and began to dig in. Rito watched everyone get satisfied looks on their faces when their tastebuds met the food. His mother's eyes seemed to light up the most. "OOOH! Mikan, this is delicious! I tell you, I've eaten foods around the world, but nothing compares to this."

"Well, when you're taking care of royalty, you gotta improve."

"Don't say that Mikan. You were already skilled enough to dine royalty since I got here!" Rito smiled at Mikan's bashful face at Lala's words. Soon the conversation moved on and Rito quietly enjoyed himself to be back home from such a wonderful evening. However the static face of Momo's grin was ever present and caused a little worry in Rito's eyes.

It was strange to see that grin on her face. "So, Rito."

"Y-Yes." He said snapping out of his worry. His mother held Celine in her arms and the plant toddler cooed in her "grandmother's" arms. "Follow me." She led Rito away from his friends and family. Ringo put Celine on the ground and let her go back to the table. "How's my boy's luck with the ladies?"

"K-Kaa-san." She shook her head. "I mean it Rito, I may have been missing, but I can tell that my boy's in love. Is it one of the princess's?" She gasped. "Is it all three of them? You must have a big heart."

"No!" He proclaimed. "I mean yes, it's Lala"

"Good. I hoped this wasn't an arranged marriage where one or worse both you were unhappy."

"And Haruna." Her mother's eyes widened. "My, my. A love for two. That sounds rough."

"And I just back from a date with one of my friends and I kissed her!" He muttered. If the second news shocked her, this one hit to the core. "My, oh my. Rito, are trying to build a harem?"

If Rito was drinking, he'd spit take. "It is so strange to see the boy who couldn't look at magazines of girls, go on and build a harem."

"I-I didn't ask for it." His mother smiled. "I'm sure you wouldn't, but I hope you're taking responsibility for these girl's feelings." She pointed at the three princesses with her thumb. "I can see these girls care for you. I just hope you'll do what's right for all of them. Your date as well."

"R-Right. Thank you Kaa-san." Ringo smiled and hugged her son. "Don't worry. Neither your father or I haven't been the best parent these past years. The best we can do is help you with your problems. And we'll be by your side no matter what."

"Thank you Kaa-san." Ringo leaned over. "Besides if any of your girlfriend's are available and willing, can a couple of them model for me? You seem to have a knack for finding rather nice figures."

"Kaa-san!" Rito said. Momo was watching from the side and twirled a strand of hair. 'Rito-san, you should be more than ready to accept the Harem Plan. Momioka, I salute you for helping my dream, OUR dream come true. Soon Rito-san his love with all of us.' She thought wistfully.

Risa was laying on her bed and wondered about the other girls: Lala and Haruna. They were friends and they both loved Rito much longer than she did. Perhaps, she could share. But first, she's going to be the one to conquer Rito before anyone else. "I can be selfish, one last time."

Our lovers have been confirmed. But will Risa's interest clash Momo's? Probably not. Just a couple more chapters.
