Chapter 2

I hate him. That's my first impression I had for him.

Natsuki felt her hands trembling in anger at the sight before her. Alyssa was the only one that noticed Natsuki's death glare she was giving the pair and decided to keep quiet as she hoped her sister wouldn't star anything as she watched Reito hand feed Shizuru, who snacked happily- enjoying every mouth full.

It disgusts me, I've wanted to hand feed her for as long as I could remember.

Natsuki didn't even touch her mayonnaise sandwich she had prepared for herself. She felt her blood about to burst from anger. Taking control of herself, she quietly inhaled deeply to cool herself down, acting like nothing had happened. "So Onee-chan, how did you two meet?"

I felt my heart stabbing me twice in the back just saying those words.

Stopping for a second, Shizuru looked over at the blunette who looked rather uneasy. "Ara, why we met on the business trip," she smiled warmly, grasping Reito's hand under table.

Figures, that idiot must have drugged her or something.

"He confessed to me and next thing we knew…" Shizuru paused before wrapping her arms around Reito her eyes filled with joy. Alyssa smiled in happiness at the sight while Natsuki just crossed her arms not looking pleased one bit.

His face seems familiar though, wait! That's right; I've seen him at my dad's work. But where else have I seen him…?

"Shizuru please, your" Reito talked smoothly to her making Natsuki's eye twitch.

Of course, I'd recognized that voice anywhere. He's head of the student council along with Shizuru, people think of him as the prince of Fuka for his 'good looks' and perfect smile. If you ask me, I think I'd rather listen to Nao sing then spend a second with that jerk!

"I love you so much Reito-san"

..I hate you Reito.

"I love you to Shizuru" Reito leaned in kissing the girl on the lips. Natsuki felt her stomach about to hurl at the sight; turning away she left her seat in a hurry.

I can't believe she did that, she… I can't even recognise my own sister.

Slamming the door behind her she threw herself onto her bed burying her head within her pillow. She could feel her anger slowly fading away, but her sadness was slowly rising.

I love her. I've loved her longer then that bastard ever has. Why can't she accept my feelings. Why-

The knock on the door broke her form her thoughts. "Come in" she yelled out not bothering to move. The door slowly opened revealing the tall brunette standing there. Turning her head around she watched Shizuru walk in taking a seat on the side.

"Is something wrong Natsuki?"

Her voice sounds so heavenly, so sister like.

"What do you mean?" Natsuki tried her best to put a smile on.

"You left so hastily, was something wrong?"

"It's just that I…I…"

This might be my chance, I must tell her.

"I… I just don't like him is all"

Baka!

"Natsuki, I know you may not like him now, but just try to at least get along with him, I'm sure you'll have something in common" Natsuki gazed heavenly into Shizuru's eyes.

The only thing we have in common at the moment is that we love the same girl.

"I'll try" Natsuki pouted in defeat flipping her head back, resting her chin on her pillow.

"Ookini" Shizuru leaned down planting a kiss on Natsuki's head. Natsuki felt her cheeks blushing at the feeling, as Shizuru left her alone in her room with her thoughts.

She doesn't even notice. Maybe this is for the best, maybe I should…

Natsuki flipped onto her back staring up at the ceiling. Her eyes seemed lost, her body acted soulless while time itself seemed to have halted for her.

What am I saying a Kuga never gives up, they keep fighting on. I'm not going to lose Shizuru to a guy like him.

Smiling in triumph, she leaned herself up looking to the side to notice something. On her desk was her mayonnaise sandwich. Smiling warmly to herself she reached over for the sandwich.

Thanks Onee-chan.

Finishing the remains of her sandwich, she licked her fingers clean in delight. Opening the door, she was met with a pair of blue eyes staring up at her. "Is Natsuki alright?"

"Yeah I'm fine" Natsuki patted Alyssa on the head walking aside her.

"Good, then Natsuki can finish our tea party" Natsuki froze still before hanging her head down.

This is going to be a long afternoon.


Natsuki kept her eyes focused on her sister; she wasn't paying attention to what she was eating but rather kept her eye focus on every word that came out of Shizuru's mouth.

"He sounds like a good man" Shizuma smiled warmly towards her daughter.

"Yes, he seems almost too perfect to be true."

Geez even at dinner she's talking about him, this makes me sick.

"So how did you two get together?" Hiro took Natsuki's attention away before looking back at Shizuru looking eager to know.

"Ara, it was a Wednesday afternoon, we were both tired from the meeting and decided to grab a bite to eat. We chatted for awhile before the subject of love was brought up and he confessed to me. He looked like such a nice guy that I accepted his feelings and since then we've been a couple" Shizuru shined her eyes dreamily in mid space making Natsuki's eye twitch at what Shizuru was thinking.

"He sounds like such a nice gentleman, I wonder why Natsuki doesn't go out with someone like him?" the family looked over at Natsuki waiting for a response meanwhile Natsuki was having a hard time trying to come up with an excuse.

What am I suppose to say, 'It's because I'm gay' or 'It's because I'm in love with Onee-chan' I can't say that. I know, the most sophisticated and clever response ever to be heard.

"It's because all guys want to do is to get into your pants" Natsuki leaned back letting out a sigh of relief.

Genius Natsuki, genius!

"Natsuki!" Shizuma placed her hands over Alyssa's ears whom was looking side to side in confusion.

"Now Natsuki, not all people think like that okay" Hiro finished his plate before resting the utensils aside. "You know, that Takeda fella seems like a good man"

No ****ing way!

"Forget it, he can't even speak properly without looking down at my chest" Natsuki pushed her chair out, collecting her plate she left the room. The family sat in silence neither one looking at the other.

"I'm sure she means well" Shizuma broke the silence but felt her words being drowned out.

Shizuru wiped her mouth before pushing her chair out. "I'll go talk to her" she left the table following the blunette into the kitchen. She watched the blunette place the dishes aside only to notice the brunette staring at her.

I hate it when she's watching me, I feel like cowering away into a hole.

"Is Natsuki alright?" the brunette walked slowly towards the blunette who looked rather uneasy.

"Yeah…I'm fine" Natsuki lied turning her back facing Shizuru. Shizuru's eye softened, embracing the girl from behind she snaked her arms around the girl's waist holding her in close.

The way she holds me, it reminds me of the way my mother would hold me when I was sad.

"If Natsuki wants to talk about it, I'm all ears okay. I don't want you to suffer alone" Shizuru whispered gently into Natsuki's ear soothing the girl.

One reason I detest men was because of my parent's death. The driver that they had crashed into them was a drunk driver; he was responsible for my parent's death. Men are idiots; I wish they would all just die.

"Thanks Onee-chan" Natsuki muttered under her breath making the brunette smile.

"Will Natsuki help me get dessert out?" Shizuru unravelled her arms from Natsuki's waist before heading to the freezer door. Natsuki turned her head to the older girl and nodded.

She's a good sister. Very understanding.


Sunday morning means sleep in morning.

Snores escaped from Natsuki's mouth echoing around her room. A trail of saliva dripped from her mouth onto the pillow causing a damp patch to be made. "…Mayon…Mayonnaise…" Natsuki snored before turning onto her side.

That's until….

The door burst open letting in a great amount of light into the room causing the blunette to pull the blanket above her head. "Onee-chan!" Alyssa ran into the room before diving onto Natsuki's bed. Natsuki groaned in anger and pain as Alyssa crawled up along the bed.

Every Sunday morning she does this, come on it's only, what…

Natsuki opened her eyes in pain still taking in the morning light. Alyssa smiled warmly into Natsuki's eyes causing the girl to frown. "Ara, Natsuki must know she can't sleep in all day" Natsuki turned her attention to Kyoto girl that stood at the doorway.

"Can't I even sleep in just for a little more?" Natsuki pouted crossing her arms.

"It's midday Natsuki, time for you to get up" Shizuru left the room with Alyssa following after her.

One downside to having sisters- they wake you up when you don't want o be.


"Ara, Natsuki certainly knows how to relax" Shizuru chuckled at the sight of Natsuki laying back on a pool side chair wearing a white bikini suit. Natsuki turned her attention at Shizuru's outfit, the sight was enough to make Natsuki's nose begin to bleed.

Baka, why does she have to wear that? She looks hot in it though.

Looking away, Natsuki look over to see Alyssa playing happily in the pool. Chuckling to herself, she stretched her legs out before walking over to the side of the pool. Jumping into the air she held her legs in tight doing a cannonball into the water.

Rising to the surface Natsuki looked around to see Alyssa and Shizuru soaking wet. Natsuki grinned to herself before diving back down into the water.

The water is so clear, even from down here I can see Shizuru's face. Sometimes I wish I could just be like water and let my feelings flow.

Natsuki listened in to the sound of water rushing past her. Her eyes stared upon those of crimson. She could feel her heart stopping at the sight of the falling Shizuru slowly closing in on her. She noticed the girl's smile and immediately began to panic.

Oh no, not-!

Shizuru shot her hands down to Natsuki's sides tickling the girl hard. Natsuki tried to hold back the laughter but Shizuru's hands got the best of her. Gashes of air escaped from her mouth causing her to return to the surface. Gasping for air, she looked around to see Shizuru was nowhere in sight nor was Alyssa.

"Oneeeeee-chaaaaannnn" Alyssa sang before ganging up on her sister tickling her. Natsuki felt another pair of hands against her waist knowing they belonged to Shizuru, she let out a loud laugh as the two girls continuously tickled her.

Natsuki laid out on the side of the pool breathing in slow breaths trying to regain her strength while enjoying the UV rays.

Although one advantage of having sisters is that they can make you laugh.

Natsuki's eyes trailed up the brunette's soaked body reminiscing every inch of her.

"Oh by the way Natsuki" Natsuki cocked an eyebrow eager to know what the Kyoto girl had to say next. "Have you finished your assignment yet?"

Assignment? Oh shit!

Natsuki was gone in a flash leaving a cloud of dust to shower Alyssa and Shizuru in.

Crap, crap, crap!
