Rental Girlfriend: Money Can Change Everything (Short Story) Part 1
(I discovered something and believed it should be passed on. For Thanksgiving I bought a Large Mash Potatoes and Gravy from Kentucky Fried Chicken, then had an idea. Making regular Mash Potatoes with actual Potatoes, I then mixed in the KFC Potatoes into the real Mash Potatoes. It came out a lot creamier and tasted really really outstanding. Especially with the Gravy.)

Introduction:
To say Kazuya was having a bad few days would drastically be considered to be an understatement. Two days ago, he had blundered his life once more. First stating to Chizuru that she was the one he wanted and then when she asked what he meant. He had panicked and immediately stammered out that he wanted her as a Rental and not his actual real Girlfriend. Mostly in fear that he would never see her again. Or be allowed to at least go out with her as a Rental. Now to make matters worse if what she said to him was true, he was about to lose her anyhow. That is if she stopped being a Rental Girlfriend. Rushing across the Campus and nearing the Train Station, he found that his luck was not getting any better. He had completely forgotten his Pass Card for the Train. So he would have to pay Cash, for he did not have time to go back to his Apartment to retrieve it. To make it even worse, the toll gate required exact change. Stepping into the Terminal Store, he decided it would just be easier to buy a 200 Yen Lottery ticket with the winning Jackpot of 250 Billion Yen. Knowing it was just a waste of Money, but he needed the change. Putting the ticket into his Wallet, though he considered just tossing it into a nearby trashcan. "Can this day get any better." He grumbled as he rode the Train to get to Work on time. Arriving ten minutes late and being docked an hour by the Manager. That day did not get any better.

Returning back to his Apartment, Kazuya still had no idea what he was going to do with the situation with Ruka Sarashina. True she was extremely cute and for some reason had her heart set on him. But he just could not bring himself to give up on Chizuru Mizuhara. He did find it funny that he no longer thought about Mami Namami as much as he did before. Sometime in the past year, he no longer idolized her or found himself dreaming of her taking him back as his Girlfriend. No, now all he could think about was wanting to be with Chizuru. As deluded as it was. Sitting down at his table, he looked over the Mail that he had taken out of his Mailbox. With disappointment he noticed there was no notes from Chizuru. "Just Bills of course." Picking up the first one, he grimaced. "The Electric Bill went up again." He muttered and he knew why. Once more the Air Conditioner had almost doubled the usual Bill amount for that month. Opening another Bill he exhaled sharply. Rent was due as well. Checking his Account on his Laptop he shook his head. He had just enough for his Weekly Date with Chizuru this time with enough left over for basic necessities. "Guess it will be Ramen Noodles and Potatoes for the next week." Opening his Wallet he spied the Lotto Ticket and laughed at the impossibility of him actually winning how it would make everything so much easier. With another laugh, he checked on his Laptop the Lottery Website and then as he compared the Winning Numbers with his. He gasped loudly. "HOLY SHIT! I WON!" Feeling faint as he rechecked the Numbers several times. All six matched his ticket numbers. His vision blurred and he passed out.
The next morning, Kazuya arose extremely early. A good two hours before the Lottery Office actually opened and made his way there. He had spent most of the night thinking about what he would do. Deciding that he would not tell anyone, including his Family until the ticket was cashed and the Money was in his Bank Account. Which he found out was conducted within the same day. In his pocket was his Bank Routing Number and Account Number. Standing outside the Lottery Office, he found himself nervously pacing. Several times he became concerned that someone would try to steal the ticket from him, but at that moment the ticket was hidden securely in his Tightie Whities and unless someone was eager enough to reach into his Underwear to get the ticket. They would never find it. An hour later he was in the Office and after over a dozen congratulations by the Staff, his winnings were transmitted to his account. Now all he had to do was go to the Bank, he needed to sign a dozen or so forms there so that he could access his Money. In route he called his Grandmother and told her the good news, asking if he could ask her some advise. At the Bank, the Manager split the 250 Billion Yen into 10 Different Accounts and gave him Five Platinum Debit Cards that had 100 Million Yen Daily limits. At the same time, Kazuya withdrew 5 Hundred Thousand Yen. Taking a Cab to his Grandmother's he could not help but to begin to worry how having so much money was going to change his life. At his Grandmother's she asked the burning question that she decided was the most important.
"Now that you are Rich, Kazuya. When are you going to Marry Chizuru?" Nagomi Kinoshita his Grandmother asked with a huge smile.
"Uhm..." Kazuya's mind blanked and his Grandmother frowned.
"Just because you won that much Money does not mean that you dump Chizuru. She had been with you from the beginning when you were essentially a worthless bum. You are not going to just dump her now!" Nagomi stated sternly and Kazuya had no idea what to do.
"I know Grandma...first though I need advise on how to...do you think I should finish School and then what do I do?" Kazuya asked and his Grandmother smiled.
"Of course you finish School. You will be the first Kinoshita to have a College Degree. That is something important. As per what to do...that is up to you." Nagomi told him and Kazuya took out a piece of paper.
"Okay..First I am going to give Mom and Dad a Billion Yen to open another Store." Kazuya said and Nagomi nodded.
"Good idea..they have wanted to open another Store for years." Nagomi said and Kazuya smiled over at her.
"Don't worry Grandma...you are getting a Billion too." Kazuya wrote that down while Nagomi shook her head.
"I was not worried about that Kazuya. Though thank you..perhaps now I can go on a couple of Overseas trips that I have wanted to go on. Maybe even take Sayuri with me." Namori said with a small smile, thinking it might be good for Sayuri Ichinose to go with her. With that she once more pressured Kazuya to propose to Chizuru as soon as possible. Before the Girl had a chance to become overwhelmed with the fact that her Boyfriend was now wealthy. He promised to talk to her as soon as possible.
At home, Kazuya slipped a note into Chizuru's mailbox stating it was vastly important that he talk to her immediately. He also slipped in 20 thousand Yen to show her how important it was. He had considered giving her 50 thousand, but that would be excessive.

Staring at the note and then the Money, Chizuru shook her head. A bit annoyed that Kazuya would do that. Stepping out onto the Balcony, she found him waiting. "I told you not to do that. To only contact me through the Site. Not unless it is extremely important." She said sternly and he sighed softly.
"I know and it is important." Kazuya said and then moved closer to the dividing wall. Mainly to make sure none of the other neighbors could hear him.
"So what is so important?" Chizuru asked and heard him lean heavily against the dividing wall.
"Okay...uhm well...how do I tell you this?" Kazuya asked and with a deep inhale. "I...I..."
"Spit it out already. It is getting cold out here!" Chizuru demanded and began to become concerned. Scenarios flowed through her mind. Such as he had finally decided to be with Ruka and he would not rent her anymore. Or perhaps Sumi had finally worked up the nerve to ask him out on a real date. The shy girl had confided to her that she really liked Kazuya and wanted to date him for real. The worse case scenario would be that he was getting back with Mami. Any of those meant she would never see him again and that upset her. He once more hesitated.
"Mizuhara...Chizuru...I..I won the Lottery...I won 250 Billion Yen." Kazuya blurted out and Chizuru gasped audibly.
"You what?" Chizuru asked in shock and he repeated what he had just said. She slipped around the Dividing wall and asked him again to repeat what he had just said. Because it was cold, he invited her inside his Apartment and she entered. She sat down at his table and he gave her Tea to warm her up some. He then told her what had happened and how by some miracle he had won the Lottery. That he was now rich. Then he told her the really bad news.
"I will be moving soon into a Larger Apartment. I think it might be best that we...that we can tell our respective Grandmothers that you cannot handle being with me anymore. That we are breaking up." Kazuya suggested, though he felt odd about doing it this way. His Grandmother would not believe that. Instead she would come to the conclusion that Kazuya was dumping Chizuru because he was now rich and wanted someone better then Chizuru. In his mind no one was better then her. Not even one of those Movie or TV Starlets. To him Chizuru was the most perfect girl in the World. She frowned at him.
"Are you expecting them to actually believe that? It sounds more like that you are ending it because you are worried that I am some sort of Gold Digger that is only interested in you because of Money." Chizuru said angrily. "Let me tell you something. Okay so you paid me to go out with you. So what? One day a week is a drop in the bucket on how many Rental Dates I had each week. At any point I could have ended our arrangement and it would not have effected me at all financially. So why do you think I continued to let you rent me?" She asked him sternly and he winced.
"I do not know." Kazuya admitted and Chizuru smiled sweetly over at him. Looking him right in his eyes.
"Because I liked you. I liked going out with you. I looked forward to our Wednesday Dates more then any others. To me it felt like I was in a real relationship with someone." Chizuru told him. "Do you realize that none of my Clients would have jumped off a Ferry in an attempt to save me. Or how many of my Clients that would have used what you knew against me? How many that would basically blackmailed me into doing something sorted with them if they learned about me wanting to keep my College Life a secret. Or not have my Grandmother find out what I did for a living." She shook her head. "They would have threatened to divulge everything if I did not let them in between my legs. But not you. You are the most sincerely caring person I have ever met in my life. Someone that I have come to admire and...and care about." Kazuya did not understand what she was saying. But his heart began to pound heavily in his chest. He swallowed heavily and held his breath.
"Mizuhara!" Kazuya gasped out his eyes began to mist. Hoping she was saying what he hoped she was saying. She smiled and reached up to grab his shirt front in her right hand.
"Do you understand what I am telling you Kazuya?" Chizuru asked and he shook his head slightly. She chuckled. "I am not your Rental Girlfriend anymore. No I am your real Girlfriend and if you do not kiss me in the next five seconds." She smiled mischievously, leaning closer to him. "The two times I kicked you will feel like a gentle tap, because I will kick you so hard. Your ancestors will feel it." She ordered him and he stared at her in shock, right up to the point she pressed her soft lips against his. Parting a few moments later, Kazuya felt his heart pound so hard it almost burst out of his chest. He was in a mystified stupor as he came to the realization that Chizuru had just kissed him. A real kiss. She pressed her forehead against his. "Well say something." She demanded and he blurted out the only thing he could think of.
"Mizuhara...I love you...Will you marry me?" Kazuya stammered out and Chizuru laughed, then smiled.
"Yes Kazuya I will Marry you and not because you are rich. I will Marry you because I have fallen hopelessly and completely in love with you." Chizuru said softly and kissed him again. Kissing him a dozen or so more times, she eased him over to his bed and with her partially on top of him. She hovered a few inches over him, peering down at him. "Do you have any...Condoms and where are they?" She whispered to him and he gestured to the nightstand. She opened it and removed the entire box. He stared at her in confusion. "What? We are going to have sex...actually we are going to make love. All night long." She told him opening the Box and dumping it onto the floor next to the bed. "Now take off your clothes." She stated and began to remove her own.
The Morning or Rather the Early Afternoon:
Awakening, Kazuya pulled Chizuru more tightly against him. He had his head nicely pillowed on her incredible right breast. At the same time, he had his arms wrapped around her waist. She in turn had her own arms comfortably around him. He glanced upwards and noticed that she too had awoken. She smiled at him fondly. "If I had known. I think I might have seduced you long before now." She said with a small twinkle in her eyes. He blushed slightly and smiled up at her.
"I was serious last night Miz...Chizuru." Kazuya said remembering her chastising him about calling her Mizuhara. Wanting him to call her Chizuru. She looked at him oddly wondering what he was talking about. "I do love you and I do want to Marry you." She chuckled and gave him a tight squeeze.
"I should hope so. Because I was just as serious when I said yes. Along with that I love you too." Chizuru smiled as she reached over for her Cell Phone that was within her discarded clothes. Finding it under her Panties and Bra, within her Pants pocket. He watched her completely confused. Then realized what she was doing.
"Oh checking for any Bookings." Kazuya bit his bottom lip and Chizuru chuckled again, shaking her head negatively.
"Nope. I just quit. I have no intention of being Rented anymore, now that I have you. Otherwise it would feel like I was cheating on you. By the way, whatever it is you have with Ruka is now over. I bet you do not know this, but I can be an extremely jealous person. So if you ever cheat on me, I will make you suffer in ways that would boggle your imagination." Chizuru smiled vindictively causing Kazuya to pale. He believed her.
"I would never cheat on you." Kazuya stated firmly and to change the subject. "So should we...get up. Maybe go tell our Grandmothers and my Parents." Chizuru shook her head.
"Later. Right now I want to spend the rest of today and tonight right here. We have a lot to make up for. Since we should have been together like this the first moment that I fell for you. To let you know it was right after I gave you CPR." Chizuru said and really enjoyed his shocked expression.
"Wait that was almost a year ago. Do you mean I could have...we could have been together since then?" Kazuya asked and Chizuru shook her head.
"No. It took me until a month ago to force myself to admit I had fallen for you. When I told you I was going to quit being a Rental the other day, I fully intended right after I quit I was going to tell you how I felt and since I know you lost your nerve right after you said you wanted me. I was going to force you to admit the truth." Chizuru told him and he swallowed heavily. She had basically done that last night. "I need to know something Kazuya. Are you still going to finish School?" She asked him and he nodded.
"That was something else I decided to do. Can I ask do you still want to be an Actress? Because if you do I will support you in every way I can to help you become one." Kazuya said and she smiled at him. Then shook her head.
"Yes that was a dream of mine. To become an Actress. But now I have a new Dream that I want to fulfill that involves you and me living happily ever after. I want it all Kazuya. A loving husband, a Home and most importantly. I want a couple of kids." Chizuru watched as he began to hyperventilate at the mention of the last part. "What I want babies. Not that I am saying I want them anytime soon. I do want them." She liked the idea of the whole domestic scene. She did not really want that a year ago. Now though right after he proposed, she found she did want that. He suddenly stirred and gently moved.
"I almost forgot." Kazuya got up and went over to his Dresser, pawing through his sock drawer and after finding what he was seeking he returned. Kneeling on the bed, he held out a small velvet box to Chizuru. Flipping it open, she stared into the open box with wide eyes. "Grans gave me that about six months ago." Taking out the small diamond ring he, he held it out to her. She presented her left hand and he slipped the ring onto her left Ring Finger. A huge smile crested her lips as she stared at the ring fondly. Holding it out so she could get a really good look at it. Then with a smirk, she basically tackled him driving him back onto the bed and halfway onto the floor. Kissing him passionately.
"We are so doing it again. Right now." Chizuru declared grabbing for another Condom.
Identity Crisis:
Keeping her left hand concealed as much as possible, Chizuru was determined to keep her College appearance so no one would know she had been a Rental Girlfriend. So that meant keeping the engagement ring that was now on her left ring finger secluded. Mostly from her two friends. A very large part of herself wanted to broadcast it. Flaunt the Ring for all to see and declare that she was not only in Love but she was going to get Married to the most wonderful guy in the World. The only thing that kept her from doing that was his friends would easily piece it together that she was not just Chizuru Ichinose but she was also Chizuru Mizuhara. Or vise versa. There would be too many questions and neither of them wanted to answer those questions yet. The other thing she had to keep secret was the fact that now Kazuya was extremely wealthy. He did not want anyone on Campus to know that yet. Once in Class, she kept her left hand concealed as much as possible. Either under the desk or under her notebook. She soon found that it was almost impossible to fully keep her hand out of sight. The other problem she had was she was desperately missing Kazuya. Her mind kept wandering during Class as she found herself wanting to be with him. "Got to concentrate." She whispered to herself, valiantly trying to pay attention. With Classes over, she with her two friends and as they stepped outside she spotted Kazuya with Kibe and Kuri. She inhaled with a sigh. Sure she had just seen him less then three hours ago, but she had an overwhelming urge to rush to him, jump into his arms and kiss him. "Easy Girl...remember keep your cool." She thought to herself. Passing the three, she caught his eye and she subtly smiled. After leaving her friends she made her way to where she knew he would be. Coming up behind him, she grabbed his shirt and pulled him into an empty room. Lunging into his arms and kissing him roughly. Parting she placed her forehead against his and smiled broadly.
"Deja vu." Kazuya whispered to her and Chizuru looked at him slightly confused. "This is the same room you dragged me into last year. Where you chewed me out and where I learned that this Chizuru is the same Chizuru that I first rented." He said and she gasped, glancing around the room and then smiled.
"It sure is. Lets make some more pleasant memories here." Chizuru kissed him again and continued to kiss him for several minutes. Holding him close to her as she made out with him. Really enjoying when he cupped her ass with his hands and began to gently squeeze her ass cheeks. Though it did cause her to become aroused. "You keep doing that and...and I may not be able to keep myself from wanting...oh that feels so good." She whispered the last part huskily. Pushing herself back from him. "Home now! We got to...I need you!" She needed to leave there before she had the urge to lock the door and make love with him right there in that room. Checking outside the room, she darted out and a second later he joined her. Walking a good fifteen yards in front of him, she rushed home to her Apartment and within seconds was around the dividing wall and into his. Tackling him as she tore off her clothes and impatiently helped him remove his own.
Two hours fourteen minutes later, Chizuru laid partially on top of him, holding Kazuya tightly against her. Panting for breath with a large content smile plastered on her lips. She had no idea how it could be even possible for her to love him as much as she did. It was uncanny and almost unrealistic she could feel this way. But she did. Realizing the reason she missed him when they were apart was she did love him with all of her heart. "I do not think me keeping my identity secret is going to work Kazuya." She said to him and he looked at her confused.
"Why not? I mean as long as we are careful. No one should expect a thing." Kazuya asked and Chizuru shook her head.
"No it is not that. Or rather it is that. I do not want to keep it a secret on how I feel about you. That we are together and that I am your fiance. At this point I could care less that anyone knows about what I did for a living." Chizuru told him. Then sat up slightly, looking him right in the eyes. "Lets do it. Lets get Married this Weekend. No waiting the nine months until we graduate. I want to Marry you now not later." She demanded and he chuckled. They had not even told their respective Grandmothers yet. Along with the fact that they were both packing to move into his Condo that he had just purchased.
"Sounds good to me." Kazuya said and Chizuru kissed him. "Lets surprise our Grandmothers and my Parents. Have them meet us across the street of the Magistrate and then tell them the reason we are there." Chizuru laughed.
"That would be so funny. Lets do that." Chizuru said still laughing. "It will serve them right for all the problems they caused us during the past year." She did not mention that most of those problems stemmed from his Grandmother and not hers. But hers did constantly inquire about whether she was going to finalize her relationship with Kazuya. "Make sure you have your Phone ready to take their pictures when we tell them. I do not want to forget their expressions." With a heavy sigh, she settled back down and closed her eyes. Both of them were tired and sleep beckoned to them.
"I love you Chizuru." Kazuya said softly to her and Chizuru smiled happily.
"I love you too Kazuya." Chizuru said back and then they both drifted off to sleep.
The End?
