Chapter 4 - Catching Up to the Others
Nothing much happened for the next two months. Well, stuff happened but there were no death threats and anything that could get the girl's fired. Reito's horrible charms continued and failed each time. Natsuki almost got into a few fights with him from time to time, but Mai and Shizuru were always there to stop it.
Recently, Natsuki had been doing double the work in the mornings, seeing as Mai now was stuck in the bathroom every morning throwing up her guts until it hurt; Morning Sickness. Natsuki insisted on being by the side each and every time, but the soon to be mother wouldn't let her and told the woman to get do the work before the got fired. Now, Reito was still unaware of the small monkey-like creature growing inside the busty woman and the three women all said she simply had a bad case of the stomach flu. He bought it, but was still suspicious.
Although one thing did change... Natsuki and Shizuru's relationship. That one kiss started a few others, some hidden here and there, a lot in between work, between cleaning and working at home, behind closed doors and out of sight. That turned to make outs, and love soon blossomed. Ehhhhhhh, sort of.
Shizuru Fujino knew for a fact that she was deeply and madly in love with Natsuki.
But the bluenette was busy with her new job, adjusting, and her best friend having a baby soon. Plus threats from the baby daddy and some guy trying to sleep with her friend. She didn't have time for love, let alone acknowledge it.
Which was okay, since Shizuru's father had announced that in one year exactly, he would resign from the company and either Shizuru or Reito would take over. It would be a competition and who ever won would be the new president of Fujino Corp. and the other would need to find a job outside the company. Neither of them had the time or energy for love, but Shizuru wanted it.
She wanted her Kuga puppy to love her back. Than she would get the job as president of the company, Natsuki could officially move in with her and they would be in love and happy and Mai could have her baby and be totally safe.
If only life was easy.
But Noooooo! It just has to suck!
--
Natsuki placed two plated of food in front of the two heirs and turned quickly, turning off the stove and moving the pan from the heat. Reito ate his eggs in a matter of seconds and downed his coffee before picked up his suitcase and running out the door. Shizuru silently sipped her tea and watched him go, giggling as the door slammed. "You know... He leaves a love 20 minutes before me and I still get more work done in the day."
"Well you said he stops to flirt with his secretary for about an hour before and after work." Natsuki said, picking up the hot pan and taking it to the sink to be washed. She had gotten better at the whole cooking and cleaning up later thing (but everyone of her dishes had mayo in it).
Shizuru nibbled on her egg and nodded in agreement, "As do I, Nat-su-ki-chan."
Natsuki snorted in response, dropping the pan in the sink with a crash and turning on the water. It boiled the moment it touched the hot metal and steam rose a few seconds later. Shizuru silently stood up and walked behind her woman, wrapping her arms around her waist and kissing the back of the woman's neck, "Ara, Natsuki-chan is... jealous?"
"Get off." The woman growled, breaking from the grasp of her partner and quickly walking into the living room, disappearing from sight. Shizuru sighed at the very familiar situation. How could she help it? Natsuki was so protective of her now; just like she was with Mai. She could remember the woman's exact words.
"Shizuru, please stop flirting. I... have no fucking idea what we're doing but you mean a lot to me know and I want to keep you safe."
Who could blame her though? These past to months happened to fast. It was like in a weeks time their relationship took a large jump in the right direction. Placing a hand over the racing heart, Shizuru took a deep breath to try and control her blush but it wouldn't go away. That was the best night she had had in a while, and it meant a lot to her, that night when Natsuki had said that. She sighed happily and walked out into the living room, spotting the woman she loved laying on the couch with her head handing off the arm rest. Shizuru walked over and kneeled in front of the pouting woman and pressed their lips together.
Slowly Natsuki began to respond and her arms went over her head to pull Shizuru's face closer to her own while her tongue wormed its way into the older woman's mouth.
"Natsuki!?"
Natsuki shot up at the sound of Mai's voice, smashing Her's and Shizuru's foreheads together. Shizuru winced and rubbed her forehead and looked up to see her woman running up the stairs. "Of course..." she said, eyes downcast and a frown firmly planted on her face. She liked Mai, she really did, but she wished she was number one in Natsuki's book. And that was currently Mai and it would be for a while.
Natsuki came running back down the stairs again, going directly into the kitchen. Shizuru went into the room and saw Natsuki pouring water into a kettle to be heated up. "Natsuki?"
"Huh? Oh, Mai wanted tea!" she said quickly, turning the stove on high and placing the kettle on top. She checked her watched and frowned, "Time to go, Shizuru, you'll be late."
"I'm not leaving without my goodbye kiss." Shizuru countered, crossing her arms over her chest and planting her roots firmly in the ground.
Natsuki rolled her eyes and went over to the stubborn woman, wrapping her arms around Shizuru's neck and grinned at her, "Since when did I have to give you goodbye kisses?"
"Since a few seconds ago when I asked for it and forever on from now." the heir said, resting her head down on Natsuki's. The bluenette smiled and slowly kissed the woman before pulling away and moving back across the kitchen. Shizuru bit her lip to restrain herself from just staying there all day, "Bye, then."
"Bye!" Natsuki said, turning the stove on higher and watching the kettle.
Shizuru picked up her purse and walked out of the house. God, it was getting harder and harder to control herself around the Kuga. Did Natsuki really have no idea what she did to the Fujino?! Did she not know how hot and bothered Shizuru got?! Couldn't she tell how much Shizuru... loved her?
Natsuki brought the steaming hot tea up to Mai just a few minutes later. The pregnant woman was laying on the bed completely passed out from exhaustion. Placing the large cup on the night stand, Natsuki sat on the edge of the bed and softly shook her friend awake. "Mai... I brought your tea..." she whispered.
Mai rolled over and looked up at her friend with a strong glare. "Go away, I'm sleepy."
"And I cooked and cleaned this morning again, so get your ass out of bed and drink this tea before I force it down your throat with a rubber tube." the bluenette threatened. Mai sat up a few seconds later and picked up her tea, glaring at Natsuki while she drank it. The woman grinned back at her and winked, "All I need is a threat and you listen."
"You could never hurt me even if you thought I was gonna kill Shizuru." Mai said.
Natsuki froze. No fucking way. Mai knew about her and Shizuru? What were they anyway? Were they a couple, or friends with benefits? "Mai... you-"
"I know." Mai said, shrugging and taking another sip of her tea. "You two aren't exactly subtle, or quiet, or good at hiding stuff."
Scoffing, Natsuki laid down next to her best friend and pulled the covers over them, "You think anyone else knows? Like Reito or Old Man?"
"They don't know. I'm sure of it." Mai said, finishing off her tea. She put the cup on the night stand again and snuggled into the warmth beside her, "How much do you like her?"
"I....... know I like her." The bluenette muttered, pulling the covers over her head. How the hell was she supposed to know? Her and Shizuru never talked about it or anything, so it was a mystery. Although she sometimes got that she-likes-me-more-than-I-think feeling, she never acted on it.
Mai groaned and pulled the covers from the girl and glared at her, "You've been with her for two months and you don't know what you want yet?"
"I don't do well under pressure!!" Natsuki whined, giving her friend a cute puppy dog face with her face tinted red from the heat radiating off the blanket, "I know that I want her to like me, cause I like her, and I want us to kiss and stuff like that..."
"You haven't had sex yet? Of course you haven't... do you want to?" Mai asked bluntly as if it was normal to want to sleep with your boss.
Didn't most people hate their bosses? What the hell? This is why it was all so confusing to Natsuki, it was new to her. Everything that she had been through these last two months was like moving from first grade to high school in two days. Did she want to have sex with Shizuru? Yes. "No, I don't think so."
"Huh, and here I was thinking I would get a yes..." Mai said, a confused expression on her face. Natsuki snorted in response and sank further into the covers until she disappeared from the world and entered her own world of light brown plush blankets.
--
Shizuru sat in her office, sending the last of her recent documents to her father's email account before hearing a knock on the door, "Come in." In walked in her well known cousin, who currently wore a smirk on his face. Holding in a groan but still rolling her eyes, Shizuru snapped her laptop shut and looked up at the man with expectant eyes, "What do you want, Reito?"
"Oh well remember what I said two months ago? About me and Natsuki and her jumping in my pants?" he asked as rudely as he could. Hey, he was trying to piss his cousin off. This could be useful. Although, Shizuru had almost completely forgotten about that, until now, "Yea well I remembered in the break room. So I think that since tomorrow is Saturday, Ill take her out for a little dinner than we'll go back to the house and... you know." He said, winking.
CHING
"What was that?" he asked, looking around the room. His eyes stopped on the window of the tower, thinking a bird must had been stupid for a few seconds and crashed, before returning his ever taunting gaze to the woman. "So, what do you think of my master plan?"
Clearing her throat – and disposing of the broken pencil in her hand – Shizuru smirked back at the man, "Ara... I think that Natsuki is actually going to have to cut off your penis."
Cringing in his seat, Reito crossed his legs but still had the confidence on a lion stalking its prey. And he had his prey worried and pissed, perfect, "She wouldn't do that. I think there might be a heart under all that ice. I mean she's only cussed me out like..."
"27 times."
"Yea 27 tim- ..yea she hates me." He muttered, his gaze dropping. He stood up and went to the door without another glance and shrugged, "Well, free will or not, I'll have her virginity. Promise you that, Cuz." he said, leaving out the door.
CHING
"Ara, time to buy more pencils. Or maybe pens this time."
--
Shizuru came home that day in a bad mood. Reito had stayed home late to finish up his project for this month, while Shizuru had finished it and sent it to her father last week, which gave her plenty of time to get ahead. Reito's little 'talk' (even though she knew Natsuki would never go for it and would rather kill him) scared her. Every single girl Reito ever brought home he had slept with, and she knew. The guy couldn't keep his mouth shut for shit.
"Mai, I'm home." she said, walking into the kitchen expecting to see the woman standing over the stove like usual. But the woman was no where in sight. "Mai?" she asked again, a bit louder this time.
"'Zuru." Well that was diffidently not Mai...
"Ara... Nat-Su-Ki-Chan." the Fujino said, turning around to face the bluenette with a smile on her face. Natsuki grinned back and stepped up close to the woman, their bodies just inches apart. Not really in the mood for games, Shizuru reached forward and cupped Natsuki's face in her hands, brining them together in a kiss.
Natsuki chuckled a bit and broke the kiss, placing her hands over Shizuru's, "What, rough day at work?"
"You have no idea." Shizuru said, her eyes bearing into Natsuki's.
Natsuki looked back into them for a long while. It was like this woman was staring right through her. Not like looking at her soul or anything; that was cliché and lame. But it was like Shizuru knew exactly what she wanted, and what she needed. Her hold on the woman's hands tightened until she turned and led her out of the kitchen and up the stairs, "Mai's asleep. And your fathers not back yet. Reito come home with you?"
Holy ****; was all that was going through Shizuru's mind at that point. Were they about to... At that thought, Shizuru's face turned to O.o and her heart turned to X.x, "No, he won't be home for another two hours." she said quickly. Her heart nearly skipped a beat when they stopped in front of her bedroom door.
Natsuki opened the door and pulled them both in, closing and locking the door behind them. She leaned her back against the door and took a deep breath while Shizuru stared hard at her, "Natsuki…...what are we doing?"
Biting her lip, the bluenette shrugged and gave the other a very earnest look, "I just, want to be alone right now, okay?"
"Ara, so straight forward..." Shizuru said, sitting on the edge of her bed.
Blushing a bright red, Natsuki stomped her foot down hard on the carpet, "'Zuru!"
"Natsuki should keep it down, Mai is asleep after all." she said, being as crafty as ever. Natsuki grumbled something and jumped up on the bed, eventually sitting on her knees behind Shizuru, "And what's my sneaky Natsuki up to this time?"
"Trust me." The sultry voice whispered in her ear. Shizuru shivered at this; it was all too familiar but something totally new at the same time. Natsuki pulled Shizuru's jacket down from the woman and rested her hands on her shoulder's, pushing her thumbs into the woman's back.
Shizuru's head fell back onto Natsuki shoulders as a soft moan slipped through her lips, "Ugh... a back rub?" she asked, her eyes slipping closed in pleasure. God this was helping a lot. She could pretty much feel Natsuki finding all of her sore muscles and pushing the stress away. "Thank you so much for this."
"Lean forward."
The goddess followed the command, her shoulders slumping a bit and her head partly down. Natsuki stopped her ministrations for a bit to reach around and start unbuttoning Shizuru's shirt. The helpless woman moaned again and helped unbutton the thing all the way until it slid off her shoulders and stopped at her bent elbows.
Natsuki grinned and started the massage again. Although this time, her lips came down to plant soft butterfly kisses upon the brunette's neck. Her hands traveled lower, bit by bit, until they landed near Shizuru's skirt line, "Oh damn, out of skin to massage..." she whispered again.
Shizuru nodded and unzipped her skirt, lifting her hips off the bed to let the offending clothing slip down and pool at her anklets. Natsuki hands traveled lower and started to nurse the woman's hips by her panty line. Shizuru moaned again and let her head fall back. "'Zuru...'" Natsuki muttered. Shizuru turned her head and was met in a heated kiss.
Natsuki broke the kiss for a moment to swing her leg around and straddle Shizuru against the bed. The brunette's hand came up and wrapped themselves in the blue tresses that surround both girl's faces as the kiss grew hotter by the second.
Natsuki groaned into the kiss and pushed Shizuru's shirt off her completely, making the girl clad in matching red undergarments. She pulled back, both of them panting and looked down at Shizuru's completely fit body and groaned again. Strong arms, lean legs, a flat stomach and at least a C cup. Natsuki leaned forward and attached her mouth to the woman's neck, her hand moving to cup her breast. Shizuru moaned loudly, feeling the pit of her stomach ache with want.
Scooting back from the embrace and laying on the middle of her bed, a very flushed Shizuru looked up at Natsuki with growing lust. Her eyes must have been the color of blood by now; her mind to clouded with dark thoughts. 'Fuck... are we actually going to...?'
Natsuki crawled on top of her boss and kissed the woman once more. Shizuru's own hands went up and quickly unbuttoned all of Natsuki's shirt and pulled it from her shoulders, throwing it some where. Like she cared at this point. Natsuki moved her knee up and pressed it against the woman's center.
Shizuru moaned again and wrapped her leg around Natsuki's waist, making the bluenette move her hand back and hold her thigh in place. Lord, fuck self control. Shizuru grinded herself onto Natsuki's knee and moaned in satisfaction. Natsuki broke the kiss again and pulled back, looking at the woman, "Shizuru... If we do this, what's next?" she asked. Hell she wanted this so badly at this point, but Mai. Mai. Mai. The woman wouldn't get out of her head! Mai and the baby and the threat of Tate and her risking the job and everything.
The job... Mai; the baby!
Shizuru stilled herself and laid flat again, cupping the confused woman's face and trying to kiss her again, but Natsuki sat up. "Nat...suki..chan?" she asked as Natsuki got up off the bed and stood up. "Natsuki, no wait!" she pleaded, but the woman didn't listen. Did she do something wrong? Was she too needy? Maybe Natsuki was the one that wanted pleasuring... Natsuki picked up her shirt and quickly went to the door, opening it and daring to look back at the Fujino.
Confused Emerald met a sad crimson as Shizuru pleaded one last time, "Natsuki, you don't understand, I need to tell you something. I lov-"
"No." the bluenette cut in, sending a harsh glare her way. They couldn't do this. It was against the rules. Her and Mai would get fired and they'd be out on the streets with that beast out there watching them and the baby would be in trouble. She couldn't make that risk, no matter what her heart told her. "We can't Shizuru." 'Damnit... I think I love her......' she thought, breaking eye contact with the woman. She eyes fell to the floor; Shizuru's eyes looked so sad. So fucking sad and it was her fault!
"Shizuru... I'm done messing around. I can't pretend to like you when I only want sex." she stated, walking out the door and closing it behind her. She ran to her room and went inside, leaning against the door frame. Mai was still sound asleep in their bed, clutching Natsuki's pillow.
The bluenette smiled softly and slipped her shirt on, walking over to the bed and kneeling beside her friend, "Mai... Mai wake up." she said loud enough.
Mai stirred and opened her eyes, glancing at Natsuki's face before traveling lower to Natsuki's still open shirt. She make a noise and rubbed her eyes and sat up, "Either you're trying to seducing me or you're really really horny. Or both...." she said. After a moment of thinking, she made a disgusted face, "Is there a third option?"
Natsuki laughed and kissed her friend's forehead, smiling. "Well... I think I could just use a good hug."
"Awww you poor poor little snuggle bear!!"
"Shut up, Mai!"
--
I can't pretend to like you when I only want sex
This was the line that shattered Shizuru Fujino's heart. After that heavy door slammed shut, she curled into a small ball on her plush comforter and tried her hardest not to cry. Natsuki only wanted sex? So then she diffidently was not a virgin in that case. She should tell Reito, so he can call off this stupid idea of his. God how could she be so stupid?!
It was probably Mai. They were obvious close enough and what Natsuki just did to her was not something you do off instinct! There must have been plenty of practice in that! Ha, Natsuki probably worked as a hooker off the street to make some...
Not working.
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't hate Natsuki. It was too hard. The woman that had played with her heart had broken it, but still pocketed a piece. She was still head over heels in love with Natsuki and she had no fucking idea how the other woman felt about her. Shizuru shook her head and slipped under her comforter. God she was tired...
--
Reito watched as a very shirtless Natsuki walked from his cousin's room to her own room and shut the door behind her.
"Shizuru... you have been a very naughty girl, yes you have."
'Well I guess I can call off what I was planning for tonight since our maid is obviously not a virgin anymore. You work fast Cuz, I'll give you that. Though Mr. Fujino won't be so happy to hear about this...' he thought sinisterly.
