Chapter 47: Couples Game Night

"Hey!" Yuzu smiled to the taller girl who was currently sitting with a muscular arm wrapped around her waist. "Hi Yuzu, it's been ages!" Jumping from her seat, Jasmin wrapped the blonde in a right hug. The action coming across as genuine friendship; Yuzu hugged all her friends. At the initial contact, Yuzu seized up, eyes flicking towards her girlfriend who was currently perched on the edge of the couch, her eyes narrowing at the action. Being polite and returning the embrace for a few seconds, Yuzu smiled as she peeled herself from the girl, breaking the eye contact she had with her girlfriend. One of the rules was that she would have no physical contact with Jasmin, Yuzu had abided by that since she and Mei had come to the agreement. Though it probably didn't look like that to Mei.

"Hi Jasmin, been a while." Harumi offered a small smile to the girl. She had been introduced to her by Yuzu on several occasions, though this was the first time she had ever 'hung out' with her. She by no means disliked the girl, rather she had a good taste in clothes, easy-going but was smart all the same. That and she carried a nice looking piece of meat on her arm. Harumi hadn't seen him before, must be new, she thought to herself as she eyed the young man now sitting by himself.

"Sorry, we weren't here when you got here, had to run out and get some stuff for Mei." Holding up the case by her finger, Yuzu gave it a slight jingle before walking over and placing the case down beside Mei, who now felt slightly embarrassed with every set of eyes on her.

"Got you your favourite," Taking the cap off one of the bottles, Yuzu handed the girl the chilled drink while placing a quick kiss to her cheek.

"So what'd we miss?"Harumi asked as she perched herself on the arm of the couch, they had been gone for a solid twenty minutes, surely they had done more than just sit and chat.

"Well, Jasmin and Nate arrived just after you two left, so as per the email the last couple to arrive gets a special treat. That couple would be yous two." Matsuri said with a grin as she pointed to her girlfriend and the blushing blonde.

"Wh-what!? Me and Harumin aren't a couple!" Yuzu shrieked as she clung onto Mei's arm through the jean jacket.

Harumi didn't look nearly as stressed out bothered by the announcement as Yuzu did. Matsuri was possessive, what was hers was hers, no one else was allowed to touch that.

"Last I checked, couple meant two people?" her finger coming to rest on her chin as if she was thinking, Matsuri let a small laugh escape her lips.

"Hey this is supposed to be a chill, get to know each other night, we're not trying to break up couples," Willow said as she tried to reassure the blonde and settle the pinkette.

"Hey, I'm not picking anyone. It will be their own choice what happens," Picking up her now empty beer bottle, Matsuri placed it in the middle of the table and pointed to the two.

"Spin the bottle. Well if you want," Matsuri's smile had her girlfriend raising her brow sceptically.

"What's the catch?" The smile in the blue eyes showed that there was more to the sentence that originally spoken.

"Well, you can either pick someone who isn't your partner to kiss, or spin the bottle and chance it." Matsuri continued as she gestured to her girlfriend, Yuzu looked like she was going to pass out she looked so worried.

Harumi knew her little devil; this was a challenge, either pick who you prefer or have to kiss a random. Harumi for one wasn't going to fall for it. Walking forward, skinny jeans and a tank top, Harumi placed her hand on the bottle and after smirking at her girlfriend, spun it and took a step back. Matsuri seemed only slightly disappointed at her girlfriend's choice, though when the bottle started to slow the concentration on the young girls face stiffened.

"And... Nate, it is." Willow announced, Yuzu who was still wrapping her head around the whole thing, stuttered a response "Harumin you're not actually gonna..." Yuzu slowed down to a halt when her best friend leaned down over the young man. Breasts falling down in front, capturing his attention. With a final glance to her girlfriend, Harumi pressed her lips to the boys.

Fingers wrapped around the nape of his neck, Nate couldn't help but kiss back. How could he resist? Harumi was hot as hell, he had eyed her as soon as she walked in. Well... her and her two friends.

It was slow and lasted a little longer than necessary, Harumi pulled back and gave a quick smirk to the boy who had a look of shock and speechlessness on his face, that and a noticeable blush.

"Good enough for you?" Harumi asked as she plopped herself down next to her girlfriend on the cuddle seat. The annoyance was written all over the younger girls face. Yet she couldn't say anything; it was her game.

"Your turn Yuzucchie!" With a grin, Harumi pointed to the bottle on the table, she could see the discomfort on Mei's face. Yuzu didn't make the rules, but she was sure the blonde would get in trouble for it later, no matter what she chose.

Shit, what am I supposed to do? I can't pick someone cuz Mei will think I like them but if I spin it might land on Jasmin!

Visible sweat was on the blonde's brow as she reached to spin the bottle on the table. She would rather take a chance and hope the gods where on her side than have Mei question her choice later.

Shaky fingers spun the bottle, spun would be an exaggeration. When you spin a bottle it's exciting to start and as it slows the nerves kick in. Yuzu's spin started so slowly it was slowing down before she had even drawn her hand back.

And like the announcer she had become, Willow tapped her nails against the bottle as it came to a halt.

"And... Jasmin, it is!" Keeping up the enthusiasm of her first statement, Willow made sure to keep a close eye on the girl's reaction.

Shit

Shit was the only word that ran through the blonde's head. Maybe the gods truly did hate her. She didn't dare look at Mei, she could feel the aura around her change as the bottle stopped. She could see her fingers grip the head of her bottle that little bit tighter. But Mei didn't say anything, sat in silence as she watched Yuzu fiddle with her bottle.

"Well that's easy then, we're just friends," Jasmin said casually, giving a soft chuckle as if it really didn't mean anything.

Getting from her seat, the tall girl sat next to the sheet white blonde. The fingers were initially cold against her neck, the contact bringing Yuzu out of her trance.

Bright blue eyes watched her for a moment before they closed and the soft skin grazed her lips. Yuzu, as much as she believed she was a good kisser, was frozen solid. Though unlike her best friends show, Jasmin gave a soft peck to the blonde's lips and pulled back almost immediately. Relief flooded the blonde; Jasmin was just her friend. Her boyfriend was sitting right there for Christ sakes.

"Loosen up Yuzu, I feel bad for Mei if you're that stiff all the time" Jasmin laughed as she stood up and made her way back to her seat.

"H-hey, I'm just not used to kissing other people!" Yuzu defended, her usual cheerful demeanour returning as she felt a little bit lighter about the situation. If Jasmin was interested in her in that way she would have taken the kiss further. If anything this kiss seemed like a blessing.

Matsuri, having perked up a little since having to watch her girlfriend french kiss a muscular hot guy who was clearly checking out her girlfriend's tits, picked the bottle up and smiled.

"See? Nothing bad." Grinning, Matsuri took a sip of beer before clearing her throat.

"So I was asked to host this little get together, but as many of you know, I like a little bit of drama. So seeing as we're all couples here, I have put together several games questions for us to do. Really it'll only bring us all closer together, and there lots of drinking! We're starting the night off with a simple game of back to back. If you and your partner don't answer the same you drink; Simple." Matsuri smiled as she spoke, seeming unfazed to the other guests. Harumi, however, paid close attention to the hand on her thigh, it almost made her laugh.

Her girlfriend, who organised the entire night, was jealous.

"As our new guests have yet to participate, it seems only fitting that Willow and Ash go first." Gesturing the middle of the room, Harumi offered as she pointed to the couple sitting in the corner of the sofa.

"Hey, we've been dating for years, no way we're losing this," Willow said confidently as she dragged her partner off the chair who only looked mildly confused, obviously having picked up most of the conversation but not all of it.

Now standing front and centre, Willow said a few sentences in English to explain the situation, Mei, however, struggled to hold back her chuckle of amusement of Willow warning her boyfriend not to say anything horrible about her.

Mei was nearly fluent in her English, she knew Yuzu's wasn't terrible but she definitely wasn't good enough to have picked up the Scots words with how fast she was speaking.

Mei could say she was enjoying having the older girl around. Perhaps family wasn't the worst thing, perhaps people could change.

In the short span of time that the group was rearranging themselves to view the couple properly, Yuzu gently wrapped her hand around Mei's arm.

"Hey Mei?" Yuzu's shaky voice asked as she tried to catch the younger woman's attention. Mei could hear the apology in the girl's voice before she even turned her head. She didn't want to hear an apology, Yuzu wasn't really at fault here; it wasn't as if she had any control over who the bottle landed on.

Turning around, Mei had initially thought she was just going to reassure the blonde, but upon seeing her lips that had moments ago been on her rivals, placed a soft kiss to her lips.

There, all better Mei thought as she opened her eyes she saw the blonde's pink cheeks and wide eyes. Clearly not the reaction she was expecting.

"I'm not upset with you Yuzu. She was respectful and just pecked you, it's fine." Mei offered what she classed as a smile, but to the rest, it probably looked like the blonde was being scolded. That always seemed to be the case, Mei normally smiled with her eyes not her lips, Yuzu knew that. And that's all that mattered to Mei.

"Okay, let's keep it PG to start with. Don't think any of us are drunk enough yet to disclose any personal information." willow smiled and she pressed her back to her boyfriends, showing off his height.

Matsuri placed a large bowl in the middle of the table, nearly overflowing with folded pieces of paper.

"I have written several questions for us to ask so it's fair for everyone. We can all pick one each then swap couples. And you all know the rules I'm sure. Drink if it's you, if only one of you drinks we move on if both drink or neither drink you both have to drink again." Smiling, Matsuri gestured to the bowl for the first question to be drawn.

Jasmin was the first to plunge her hand into the bowl of folded paper, her eyebrow raising as she gave a brief smile to the youngest girl who sat with a smug smile as she leaned against her girlfriend.

"Who cums first?" Tossing the paper onto the table, all parties looked back to the couple. Willow stood still, a grin making its way onto her lips, it took a few moments but the girls in the room couldn't help but laugh when the young man tentatively put the bottle to his lips.

"C'mon Matsuri, is everything you've planned tonight like this?" Harumi asked, throwing a disapproving glance at her.

"Not everything," It was a mischievous grin, one that Harumi didn't completely trust.

"Okay guys lets speed this up a little, everyone take a question and ask away," Matsuri said cheerfully as she poked at the bowl.

"Who's the better driver?" Mei spoke up as she read from her slip of paper. Judging by Ashton's car she assumed he would be drinking one again, though she was slightly confused or maybe impressed when Willow took a long swig of her drink.

"I can guarantee that I'm a better driver than all you here!" Willow laughed, the smile of her face full of pride as Ashton laughed and nodded.

"No way? Is that your car we seen at Mei's?" Yuzu jumped with excitement, knocking Mei's arm as she hopped to the edge of her seat.

"Yup sure is, she's the love of my life and l know how to drive her. I do some racing on the side for fun back home." Willow grinned, the wild flush in her eyes only fuelling the blonde's enthusiasm.

She loves her car as much as I love Mei's and mine!

"No way?! Do you think you could show me?" Yuzu's excitement was put down as Mei spoke up, eyeing her cousin before turning to her girlfriend.

"That won't be happening." Her voice was stern as she spoke. That sounded dangerous, not exactly a situation she wanted to be putting her girlfriend in.

"Wh-what?" Yuzu whined, the pout on her lips catching the attention of everyone in the room. They, however, didn't affect Mei's judgement on the topic.

"Just as I said, I don't want you to be driving like that, it's dangerous." Continuing her hard stare towards the blonde until she nodded her head in defeat, mumbling a small 'fine' as she took a swig of her beer in defeat. Mei didn't like to say no, or stop her girlfriend from doing something she wanted, especially if she pouted about it, but this was for safety reasons.

"Why you gotta be such a ball-buster? That sounds like a good time." The young man sitting across from Mei snorted, his eyes not challenging Mei but mildly disagreeing with her. Mei, though, didn't seem to be in the mood to be criticised by a man she'd known for an hour.

"I'm sorry if wanting to keep my girlfriend out of harm's way makes me a 'ball-buster'. I would rather take on an insult and know she was safe than be persuaded otherwise and put her in harm." Her voice turned bitter for the first time that night, Mei scowled at the boy. Just because he seemed more laid back than a preschooler and couldn't seem to give a crap about his 'girlfriend', going off the way he couldn't drag his eyes off Harumi, didn't mean Mei had to be the same.

"Okay Mei, you made your point, you love your girlfriend, but let's put the teeth away. Tonight about having fun not getting on each other's nerves." Matsuri spoke up, she was sure she would have rather watched the show for a moment more, but her girlfriend had told her otherwise. And she needed to be on her best behaviour If she wanted to get 'cheered up' Later.

"Next question..."

Yuzu and Mei stood back to back in the living room, now coming to the end of their round with having only lost one question.

"Who's the better kisser?" Was readout with a bit of a giggle by Harumi, she quirked her brow at her best friend, she had listened to the blonde boast about how good a kisser she was before, but would she admit it in front of Mei? Pride wanted to tell Yuzu that she was obviously amazing at it, but then again Mei's kisses did feel amazing. Nope, definitely has to be Mei.

"That's quite cocky of you to say, Mei," Willow laughed as she watched her cousin take yet another drink of her emptying bottle.

"The game is to win, I don't particularly think I'm better than Yuzu at it, but I knew she wouldn't drink to the question..." Mei responded relatively quickly and mundanely to the question.

"See, me and Mei defiantly know each other!" Yuzu beamed as she smiled to the group of people, obviously proud of their accomplishment so far.

"Last question, 'who's most likely to protect the other from danger?'" With the last question hardly even finished being spoken, Yuzu brought the bottle to her lips to take a swig. She knew, without a doubt, no matter what the situation, if Mei was in danger she would do anything to save her.

"Wha- how can you get that right? Would you not save your precious Yuzu, Mei? How heartless," Matsuri said, her voice taking on a solemn tone as she spoke the last sentence for dramatics.

"No I believe I would, but I know Yuzu wouldn't hesitate." Mei's response quietened the girl down, but Yuzu perked up at the words as she turned around to peck her girlfriend on the cheek.

"That's right!" Her grinning face was enough for Mei to allow her girlfriend the glory of kissing her in front of the other parties; She deserved it after all.

"I'm pretty sure you guys cheated or something-" Matsuri grumbled,

"You're only saying that because you only got two questions right!" Yuzu's retort encouraged the group to laugh, even Harumi was openly laughing at the pout on her girlfriend's face. Bringing her face closer to the pinkettes ear, with her laughter now stopped, Harumi whispered words of joy to the younger girl.

'Cheer up, I'll reward you later."

"Okay, so let's mingle, next up Is a mitch match of games combined into one, but you guys need to be a whole lot drunker than this." Matsuri, now full of energy, said as she used her phone to turn up the speakers slightly

...

"Mei you need to relax a little, she's only talking to her and if you haven't noticed she keeps looking back and smiling at you," Willow said as she tried to cheer up her cousin, who was currently staring at her girlfriend who was talking to Jasmin. Given, everyone else was standing chatting to them too, but Jasmin was focused on Yuzu; Mei could sense it, and she didn't like it. Not at all.

"She's trying to reassure me that nothing is happening. I know she's not doing anything, but that doesn't mean she isn't trying to pull something." Mei scoffed, she knew Yuzu wouldn't do anything after the day they had, Yuzu wouldn't do anything intentionally anyways. Mei was merely concerned for the conniving woman who was trying to rope her girlfriend into sex.

"Well from what I can see, she seems pretty normal, just a friend. I mean I'm not doubting you, but maybe we were wrong that she would try anything when other people are around." Willow thought as she pulled herself slightly closer to her cousin; they couldn't have anyone overhearing the conversation.

"Perhaps..." Mei replied, her voice rather low. Maybe they should just focus on having some fun and relaxing, but she didn't want to let her guard down and risk something happening.

"You guys okay?" Yuzu, who appeared beside the pair out of thin air, asked as she smiled towards her girlfriend.

"Yup everything is good, though I'm curious to see what else Matsuri has planned tonight if things can even more personal." Willow laughed as she gestured to the youngest girl in the room, who was making small talk with her girlfriend and Jasmin, the two young men currently in the process of sitting opposite each other at the kitchen table. From what Yuzu could see it looked like the two were about to have an arm wrestle.

It would be quite a show, she had seen Ashton's biceps before and they didn't disappoint, tonight was the first time she had met Nate but it was easy to see he was a muscular guy.

"Oh here we go, I swear his pride couldn't get any bigger," Willow said rolling her eyes as she watched her boyfriend roll up his sleeve and rest his elbow on the table, a cocky grin on his lips as he eyed his opponent.

It took mere seconds for the girls in the room to surround the table, it was a show to be had.

Ashton gave a winning smirk to his girlfriend before flexing his grip on Nate's hand; Nate glanced around the room, first nodding at Jasmin before catching the plum coloured haired girl's eye. Giving her a smile that matched the Scots. Yuzu watched as her best friend rose her eyes brow a little at the smirk, it almost looked challenging. Yuzu thought it looked rather similar to when Mei would raise her own eyebrow in a suggestive way, one that mimicked "I dare you", but not in a bad way. That was not a look her friend should have been giving the young man. Especially when her girlfriend was sitting right next to her.

"Out of the pair, I thought Matsuri would be the one flirting with other people," Willow whispered to the blonde as she motioned to Harumi who was currently perched on the back of the couch watching the two young men who were currently in the process of trying to outmatch the other.

"She's not flirting!" Yuzu defended, she wanted to believe that she wasn't seeing the same thing Willow was, but that definitely wasn't an innocent smile.

"Yeah, tell that to Nate, cuz he seems to be winning for a reward," Willow whispered under her breath, Yuzu glanced back to the two men, Ash was on the verge of losing, knuckles just a hair away from brushing the tables. That was until the older blonde cheered a few magic words.

"Cmon baby, if you win I'll let you have what you wanted last night!" Willow shouted over the music, her strong voice clearly reaching the young man as there was an instant pick up of his arm. Within the next twenty seconds the match was over, Ash after jumping in triumph, made his way over to his girlfriend and pulling her aside for whispering to be had. Nate, sat at the table sipping his beer with a smile.

"I dunno what she just promised him, but it must have been worth gold." Laughed the young guy, Jasmin coming around to loop her arms around his shoulders. "If you need a pick me up you can always ask," The words were 'whispered' into the young man's ear, but loud enough that Yuzu, Mei and Harumi heard clearly.

Yuzu turned pink as she tried to turn away, Mei rolled her eyes, Harumi, however, turned to Matsuri as she fiddled about with the speaker.

"So how come I've never met you before Nate?" Yuzu asked as she perched herself on the edge of the table. She had been friends with Jasmin for a number of months, but she had never heard her mention Nate, there were stories and tales and nights she'd with people, but never had Yuzu heard of this guy before Matsuri's invite.

"It's pretty new, we've been dating for a couple of months, but we've been seeing so little of each other I've not had time to gossip about it." Jasmin laughed.

"You gossip about me?" Nate asked, slightly shocked at the reveal. Jasmin gave a grin, "We gossip about all our partners and the sex that comes along with it." She gave a grin to the man sitting next to her who seemed to puff up his chest at the words; He had nothing to worry about.

Yuzu gave a nervous laugh as she felt lasers on her back, turning around Yuzu made a 'calm down' gesture with her hands. She tried to offer her a reassuring smile but Mei didn't take well, instead, she turned to her cousin, engaging in whatever conversation was happening there. Sighing Yuzu turned back to the couple with a forced smile, something had to go wrong, didn't it? Yuzu said to herself.

The get together lasted nearly another hour before Yuzu managed to pull Mei aside to explain herself. Everyone seemed to be that little bit more comfortable around each other with a little more alcohol. Yuzu nervously tugged on the side of Mei's jacket as she tried to pull her slightly away from the others, Mei, although not removing the contact, wore an unimpressed look, Yuzu couldn't see herself getting out of this one easily.

"Are you ready to stop ignoring me now?" Yuzu asked with a smile, clearly trying to lighten the mood but she only got a frown in response.

"Okay, I'm sorry, what Jasmin said wasn't completely true. I'm not going to lie, I have spoken a little about us before, but not just to Jasmin. It's just girl talk when we hang out. I mean I've never gone into any detail with her before because I know how you would feel about that, but I'm not going to lie and say I've never said absolutely anything. The other girls go into more detail than I ever have with them..." Yuzu rambled as she tried to get Mei to stop scowling at her. Yeah whilst having a girly chat she may have let some things slip, like agreeing to a statement but she hadn't, apart from Harumi, told anyone specific detail about her sex life with Mei.

"Please don't be mad Mei. As she said, I've hardly been spending any time with her over the past few months and even before then we didn't talk much about you and me. I don't want you to get upset over something like this. We should be here having a good time... I promise not to talk about anything to do with us in regards to that again to her, but please don't be angry with me." Yuzu practically whined the last sentence to Mei, a small smile working its way on to her lips as she pulled Mei towards her by her jacket; bringing her flush against her.

Her words, or her smile, must have worked as Yuzu saw a small crack in her girlfriend's demeanour. Still gripping tight, Yuzu pushed herself on her tiptoes and pressed her lips against Mei's. It was a gentle kiss, more of a long peck than anything else. When Yuzu pulled back she saw a small smile on her girlfriend's lips.

"I knew you weren't really mad at me." Yuzu grinned as she ran her hands down the length of the jacket, finally releasing Mei when her hands came to the bottom.

"Maybe I just wanted you to admit what you had been saying without me having to pry it out of you?" Mei said as she didn't step away from her girlfriend, instead, giving her a small smile. Mei although not impressed by what she had found out, knew Yuzu liked girl talk and if that was one of the drawbacks of being with the blonde then so be it. As Yuzu said, it wasn't as if she was going into any great detail and it wasn't as though Yuzu was disappointed in that department, so really Mei had nothing to worry about. Well, that's what she hoped, and that's what she told herself for her to let this slide.

"I'm sorry okay," Yuzu offered her apology again before giving a big smile, the last thing she wanted was Mei really being mad at her. Things had been too dramatic for her liking the past few months, she just wanted things to go back to normal. Were they would spend the night together as a happy couple just having silly squabbles that didn't really matter.

She got a small nod from Mei before the younger girl moved back slightly out of her grasp. Glancing over to the coffee table, the pair saw Matsuri setting up rows of shot glasses on every side of the table. Each length had five glasses each filled with a clear liquid. Yuzu knew what this was 'Where's the water', she had played it once or twice at parties. Though knowing Matsuri, Yuzu had expected them all to be some type of spirit.

Gently taking Mei's hand, Yuzu leas her girlfriend over to the couch where the other couples were currently gathered. All watching in curiosity as the young girl finally set up the game she had boasted about.

"Alright everyone, sit next to your partner everyone gets on side of the table.' Matsuri smirked as she pulled herself to her feet and put her bottle to her lips, lavishly sprawling herself down next to Harumi who was sitting on the armchair. Though she was quickly pushed off.

Everyone was situated around the small table with Jasmin and Nate taking the large couch, Harumi and Matsuri on the armchair, the other pairs sitting on the carpet either side of the table.

Mei wasn't looking forwards to this, there was a large stack of cards on the table, five shots lined in front of her and it wad all created by her young friend.

Yuzu, however, was filled with excitement, she was visibly squirming as she looked around the table joining in the idle chatter and laughter. The pair sat side-by-side on the floor, waiting for Matsuri to explain what this was. Mei didn't think this was going to be a simple game of wheres the water. Matsuri was too creative, perhaps meddling would be a better word, for it to be a simple game.

"Alright, so taking it in turns we each pick a card, on the card, there will be a task or a question for you. It's a mixture of lots of different things so no point in explaining them all now, but if you don't want to answer your partner has to take a shot." Matsuri said as she grinned at the stack of cards.

Everyone had drunk enough by this point that idle chatter was coming naturally, enough liquid courage was swirling in the room that the first few questions answered by Willow and Harumi swiftly. Yuzu giggled as she picked her fate, shielding the card with her hand as if she wouldn't have to tell the others what she got.

"Truth or dare?" Yuzu said as she looked back to Masturi, confusing lacing her face as that's all the card read. "Simple really, same as normal truth or dare, someone just has to ask you." Matsuri shrugged.

"Well, I pick truth!" Yuzu said happily as she waited for her response, and she didn't have to wait long before Willow was grinning wildly as she gently nudged the girl's shoulder. "You a top or a bottom?" The quested prompted the room with laughter and Yuzu's cheeks flared red as she froze for a moment. This should have been expected.

Yuzu opened her mouth several times to reply but each time all that came out was air, the longer she had to consider the question the darker her cheeks became. She was pretty good at being a top, but then again she loved it when Mei dominated her... Am I a ... bottom?

"Bottom..." Yuzu said quietly, just barely audible over the music coming from the speakers in the room. "Oh really? So, Mei, you must be quite controlling in the bedroom too?" Nate said quickly through a laugh. It was clearly meant as a joke, and likely anyone else in the room would have fired something similar back, but that wasn't within Mei's nature.

"Breath Mei," Yuzu whispered into her girlfriend's ear as she leaned a little closer before she could retaliate, grasping her hand and giving a light squeeze. Taking her girlfriends hint that she wanted to enjoy the evening, Mei shrugged her shoulders, "You'll never know. I'm possessive with what's mine, and I like to remind her of that." Mei snapped back after a moments time, her words only inducing her girlfriend's red cheeks.

"Annnd lets move on before Yuzucchie dies of embarrassment," Harumi announced through her own muffled laughter as Yuzu tried to hide behind the table and her beer.

"Haha okay, here I go," Jasmin said as she reached for a card on the table, laughing as she read it. "Never have I ever..." There was a slight pause as she thought for a moment, "Taken drugs," Looking around the group as she as watched to see if anyone drank. To her surprise, both the scots drank from their bottles along with the young pinkette, who just shrugged off the 'What?!" she got from Harumi with 'It was just a little weed,' and turning back to the group.

"A little weed never hurt anyone," Willow smiled with a wink as she leaned across the table to clank her bottle off Matsuri's. Willow had tried it several times... c'mon, they lived in Scotland, it's only cultural.

Yuzu didn't touch or even go near her bottle at the statement, she felt Mei's eyes on her when the question was said. She had partaken in things while at parties that Mei wasn't aware of, but she wasn't stupid enough to know she would be grilled like a salmon if Mei found out she had taken drugs.

"Okay my turn," Harumi said as she gave another glance to her girlfriend. "Remove a piece of clothing?" Harumi clicked her tongue as she glowered back to her girlfriend again. She was wearing little enough as it stood. After a moments consideration, she took off her jacket, revealing her smooth shoulders. Now in only a crop top and skinny jeans, she roughly tossed her jacket at Matsuri, who just managed to grasp the clothing before it smacked her in the face.

"Hey, don't blame me, you should have worn more!" The young girl defended, with a laugh. Though Yuzu felt a shiver run down her back at the thought of pulling such a card, she couldn't afford to lose a piece of clothing. She would have nothing left bar her underwear.

"C'mon Ash it's your turn, and no pussying out!" Willow grinned as she knocked herself into the young man's side. Mei's eyes widened slightly at her language, she had never heard the girl talk like that before. But in all fairness, the girl was probably holding her tongue around Mei to be polite.

Yuzu, still sitting on the floor next to her girlfriend, could feel herself becoming slightly more than tipsy. She could feel the buzz in her head that made her want to take another sip and not stop smiling and chatting. Taking another swig of her beer, she discretely pulled herself closer to Mei and wrapped her arm around her waist. Yuzu tried to keep her eyes focused on Ashton as he drew his card from the stack, but she felt Mei initially flinch at the contact before turning her head to Yuzu. Watching her intently for several seconds before following the blondes stare. Yuzu was shocked that brushing off her attempts as nothing worked, she was on the verge of certain that Mei would have asked her to remove her hand.

Yuzu tightened her grip on Mei's side as the younger girl made no attempts to remove the hand from her waist.

Through stuttered Japanese and a little assistance from his girlfriend, Ashton read out his card. "What's the weirdest place you've ever hooked up?" Though everyone waited for his response, it was Willows look of expectancy that had the others waiting on the edge of their seat. With a nervous look to the blonde sitting behind him, Ashton finally spoke up, his voice audibly wavering.

"On an aeroplane."

Yuzu choked on her drink as she tried hard not to splatter it over the floor. Both Matsuri and Harumi looked mildly amused, Nate had an approving look on his face, but Willow did not look happy.

"And you was this with?" She asked, narrowing her eyes in a way that made Yuzu see the resemblance between her and Mei. Scratching the back of his neck, the young man shuffled a few centimetres to the side. "Lizzy, it was before we got together."

"Ooo you're fucked," Nate tipped his head back as he laughed at the couple, now arguing in English about this 'Lizzy'. He received a small smack on the arm at the words along with a disapproving look from his girlfriend who was also smiling at the scene... Everyone was... Even Mei.

Once the laughter and idle chitchat had died down slightly, Mei raised herself onto her knees and elegantly pulled the card from the top of the stack. She frowned when she looked over to Matsuri who was smiling gleefully as she watched Mei read her card.

"Drink 3 shots or give your partner a lap dance," Mei raised her brow, almost considering her options. She had never given a lap dance before, heck she hardly ever danced and it certainly wasn't in the way in which a lap dance unwound. Though her decision was made for her as Yuzu wordlessly split the shots into two groups, pushing three of them towards her girlfriend. Her cheeks were burning as she made the decision for her partner, but there was just no way Yuzu was going to let Mei do that here. It would probably be more embarrassing for Mei than Yuzu.

"Hey that's not fair, Mei has to choose" Matsuri whined, Mei however after giving Yuzu a quick look, knocked back the three shots, only stopping to take a break after the second one, though took the third like a pro too. "Ooo go, Mei!" Willow wooded, she was shocked to see how easily Mei drank the alcohol. It was vodka, Mei liked vodka. The cheer was echoed by the blonde as Mei placed the glass back on the table, she felt the blonde's hand grip onto her shoulder and gave it a light squeeze before she placed a quick peck to her cheek. Though this time Mei did push the blonde away from her slightly.

Looking up from the table Mei was pleasantly surprised to see Jasmin's gaze on her, she glowered as she watched Yuzu smiling happily at Mei's side and turning to Willow to retaliate to something she had said. Though Mei nor Jasmin seemed interested in what the scot had said to the blonde, the eye contact was strong, challenging. So she's finally going to show what she really wants. Mei thought as she finally broke the eye contact to watch Nate pull his card.

His face seemed to light up slightly as he read his card, "Seven minutes in heaven," He said as he placed the card back onto the table, looking around the group Nate could say he would be happy with any of the girl there. But there was the looming possibility that it would land on Ash... if that happened Jasmin would be taking a shot.

"Spin the bottle," Matsuri said, writing out these cards felt much more amusing than this was. She had already let her girlfriend kiss this man once, what was the probability it would happen again? Clearing a small space on the table, the young man spun the bottle before watching it intently.

"If it lands on you we are leaving," Mei said under her breath as she leant closer to Yuzu. Who merely nodded, that wasn't a question it was a statement.

"Really, what the hell, is that bottle rigged or something?!" Harumi said as she eyed the bottleneck that was pointing towards her. Harumi looked down to her girlfriend as she heard her click her tongue, her eyes burning holes in the bottle as she refused to look at her girlfriend.

"Ooo," Willow sounded as she watched the pair looking at each other. Surely she wasn't the only one who could see the chemical attraction between the two. It was a long thirty seconds before Mei spoke up, "Are you going to complete the challenge?" It broke the silent atmosphere as Nate jumped to his feet, "I've no objections?" Wiping down his slacks, his gaze was fixed on the brunette who was still perched on the side of the armchair, contemplating whether she should or not. Though it wasn't like she had a choice, Matsuri sure wasn't stopping her.

Placing her bottle on the table, Harumi started walking down the hall to the cupboard, her steps were quickly followed as Nate dashed after her. Now Matsuri was looking at her girlfriend, her eyes narrowed as she watched the pair turn the corner.

"You're really just going to let him go and make out with Harumi? That's a lot of temptation right there, I wouldn't let Ash within a metre of her she's so fine!" It was Willow that spoke up, it came across as simple girl banter, but it was a directed question. Jasmin shrugged as she took a sip of her drink, "I trust him, besides we're not strictly exclusive." The girl's response had all the others, bar Matsuri who still had a bitter look on her face, shocked, Yuzu choked on her drink once again.

"What?!" Yuzu said, her eyes still wide with shock. She had known Jasmin for a while now and never had the girl mentioned that any of her relationships were non-exclusive.

"Haha what can I say we both like each other but are still attracted to other people? It's not too uncommon, I mean haven't you ever seen someone that you would just die to bang but couldn't because of Mei? I don't have that problem." Willow said with a smile as she addressed the blonde's bewilderment. It didn't seem like that big of a deal to the others, but Yuzu seemed to have a harder time taking in the information. Sure the blonde found other people attractive but she had never felt the urge to sleep with someone else, she was with Mei and didn't plan on changing that.

Mei, however, scowled as the girl spoke, narrowing her eyes. If you are implying that Yuzu wants to sleep with you, you couldn't be more wrong. Mei thought to herself as she grit her teeth.

"And hey it's not just me, you didn't seem to have any objections." Jasmin gave a suggestive smile to Matsuri who was gripping her beer tightly. "The only one who can refuse the card is the person who picks it, so I didn't really have a choice. But going off the way he has been ongoing her all night I can only imagine he was hoping it would land on her." Matsuri spat back in a rather low voice, her annoyance at the current situation showing brightly.

Jasmin only laughed it off, and surprisingly it was Mei who spoke up. "You wrote all these cards, if you weren't prepared for both you and Harumi to partake in the events on them then you should have been more reserved when you wrote them,"

"Hey let's not get too serious here, for all we know they might not be doing anything at all." Willow tried to calm the growlingly intense conversation, but her encouragement was quickly put down as it was her boyfriend that couldn't help but laugh at her statement. "Sure," Was all he managed to say before quietening down his laughter.

"While they're off having some fun, how about we continue?" Willow continued as she picked up her own card. "How many people in this room have you kissed?" Willow looked confused at the card, surely there was more meaning behind this, or Matsuri had hoped someone else would be pulling this card.

"Just the one, what about you guys?" Looking around the room, Jasmin and Mei held up two, Matsuri held up three fingers without hesitation, Yuzu slowly put up four as she felt everyone's eyes on her.

"Ooo Yuzu, you've been busy?" Jasmin spoke as she raised her perfectly shaped brow. Yuzu was ready to laugh the comment off when she turned to Mei who had the same expectant look on her face.

"...Jasmin, Matsuri, Harumin and Mei... obviously..." At the questioning looks, she continued to get from the other Yuzu continued. "Hey, it's not like I've been making out with everyone. I've just pecked Matsuri and Jasmin before and obviously I've kissed Mei..." Yuzu said, surely that wasn't a demon she could feel beside her, oh no, that was just the cold aura emanating from her girlfriend. "Harumi?" Mei asked in a low voice.

Nervously Yuzu nodded, "I've kissed her before as well, back in high school..." Was all Yuzu said, she knew she would get a lecture about this later, but she didn't want it in front of everyone else.

"... We'll talk about this later," Mei said in a low tone as she turned away from the blonde slightly. The music was becoming more like background noise by this point as the girl's laughter drowned out most of it. Yuzu was next to draw a card, clearly getting more nervous with the way things were going so far.

"Would you rather, never eat p-pussy again or never get yours eaten again?" Yuzu's face was burning hot as she read the card, her stumbling over the words a clear indication of her embarrassment if her scarlet cheeks weren't enough. Yuzu although mortified by the question still had to answer. On one hand, oral was life, on the other, if she chose to never give any again did that mean that Mei would go without if she wasn't able to give her it? It was quite a dilemma.

"I think... never eat it again, I guess..." Before the blonde could live through the embarrassment of her answer, both Harumi and Nate walked back into the room. Nate hosting a silly grin while Harumi had a slightly more serious expression.

"Damn, wanna trade?" Nate laughed in a joking manner as he knocked Matsuri on the shoulder as he gestured to Jasmin who merely rolled her eyes at the statement, Matsuri, however, didn't take the comment so well. Her eyes initially narrowing on Nate ready to snap back before her annoyance was directed towards her girlfriend, who had perched herself on the edge of the large sofa.

Seven minutes earlier...

The door closed as the two stepped into the dark closet, there was an awkward silence as the two stood with their chests just centimetres from touching. Harumi couldn't deny she found the young man astoundingly fit. He had muscle, stubble and as it turns out, was a good kisser. But she also had her girlfriend. Nate was in a similar boat, just without a guilty conscious. Harumi had only grown more beautiful over the past few years. Keep her hairstyle the same, her body just matured, she had a figure that was plastered all over the 'after' section of girls magazines.

The first thirty seconds of their seven minutes together were spent in motionless silence. But that was only the first thirty seconds, a low "Well?" came from the auburn-haired girl prompting Nate to draw his lips down to meet his companies'. The kiss started off slow and hesitant, Harumi trying to keep her hands in check as she let herself be pushed back into the bookcase behind her. Nate, however, grew in confidence, his hands wandering that little bit more as the minutes ticked over and the kiss became more heated. The pair becoming lost in the embrace, Harumi found herself leaning more into the kiss, her hands gripping at the already tight fitted shirt.

Harumi found herself loving the way the slightly rougher lips felt against her neck but hating the feeling it gave her in her chest. It took a moment for her to figure out what it was... Guilt. She was feeling guilty for feeling good. The seven minutes were just about up when Harumi pushed back on the firm shoulders that towered over her. Replenishing the original distance between the pair. "I think that's quite enough wandering," She breathed in a low tone as she tried to catch her breath.

"You sure? I'm not busy after this if you wanted we could take this somewhere else?" Nate said, his charming grin just visible in the shadowed room. His voice was smooth a deep, his demeanour masculine and aloof. Harumi felt like she had to stop herself from accepting the offer. She was definitely lusting after the man in front of her right now, there was no denying that. But she had her girlfriend and this was 7 minutes in heaven, those minutes were up and that meant whatever had just happened was just part of her girlfriends game. Nothing she would be engaging in again.

"I'm just fine where I am thank you," She said back, wiping the side of her neck to remove any trace of their events.

The game continued on for a short while after that with the happy atmosphere soon returning. "Right guys I think we've all learnt enough about each other now, how about we put it away and just chill?" Harumi asked as she could see her turn coming up fast and wasn't quite feeling it anymore, it would be just her luck that she get something that would put her in yet another compromising position.

"Well that works, looks like we won though?" Jasmin grinned as she gestured to the untouched shot glasses in front of her and Nate. Mei and Yuzu had managed to drink four of theirs, and both the other couples having only drank one of their shots.

Yuzu stood from the floor to stretch her legs, the feeling letting a sigh escape her lips before she stumbled slightly knocking into Mei who was currently in the process of getting up as well.

"Oops sorry Mei, guess my heads had a little too much," With a nervous grin Yuzu hoped Mei wouldn't think anything of it. Luckily enough, Mei gave a small smile as she rested her hand on the blonde's shoulder, "It's fine, how many beers have you had?" Mei added as she pair moved away slightly from the table and loud chatter that was starting to break out now that no one was focusing on the game.

"Ehh five I think plus one shot..." Yuzu said with a nervous smile, Mei however just nodded. It was apparent that no one was paying attention to how much they were drinking, there were just growing piles of bottles around the flat.

"Hey Yuzucchi, can I borrow you for a minute?" Harumi said as she appeared beside the pair, her voice expressing the urgency that her face was trying to hide. Yuzu completely forgetting about her girlfriend for the moment as she quickly stumbled around to see Harumi. "What's up, you okay?" Yuzu asked through slightly slurred speech, though she was dragged away down the hall, Mei just catching 'not here' from the younger Taniguchi sister before the two were gone from sight.

"She's avoiding me you know?" Mei's head turned at the sound of her young friend's voice. Mei merely raised her new eyebrow at the younger girl as if prompting her to explain herself. Even if Mei pretty much knew why, it only seemed right to make the younger girl confirm her thoughts.

"You know why. She's barely spoken a word to me since she came back from being with 'him'," The younger girl scoffed as she motioned to the young man who was currently dancing with the other three in the living room, having turned the music up slightly. "And you believe...?" Mei prompted again. There were several possibilities as to why Harumi would be avoiding the young girl: She had taken it too far while in the closet, she had been pressured into something or, the most likely option according to Mei, that she merely wanted a bit of peace and quiet from the irritating youngster.

"... I don't know why... I think she's mad that I didn't say anything to stop her before." Propping herself against the wall, Matsuri took a long swig of her drink before motioning to Mei. "But you seem to be having a better night," The words were somewhat bittersweet. Given Yuzu hadn't made out with someone for seven minutes, but she had kissed Jasmin and Jasmin was still yet to show her true colours. "It could be better." Mei simply stated. "Perhaps you should try apologising to her, then she may not ignore you?" Mei offered in an attempt to be helpful, though the comment was brushed to the side with a grumble, leaving the two in silence.

"What do you mean you liked it?" Yuzu scratched her head as she watched her friend pace back and forth through the room. "I mean it felt great! Not great in a one time only thing, I want to do it again!" Harumi rattled out in a jumbled sentence, taking the blonde by the shoulders and giving her a small shake at her words before letting her head drop to the blonde shoulder. A sigh escaping her lips.

"I don't know what to do or why I'm feeling like this, but she keeps trying to talk to me about it." Harumi said as pulled herself from the blonde, letting herself flop onto the bed. It was safe to say Yuzu was shocked well and truly. Harumi was one of the loyalist people she knew, she never saw herself in a position where the girl was confessing she was using after another. Especially someone she had only met that evening.

"Wait, so you are going to... cheat on Matsuri?" Yuzu hesitated before she spoke the words, them not feeling right as they rolled off her tongue. "What? No! I wouldn't be in here with you telling you how confused and frustrating this is for me if I was going to go and sleep with him." Harumi said with a roll of her eyes as she jumped from the bed again, falling back into her pacing.

"But he was just sooo hot and good. I've never felt like that. I mean have you ever had someone like that completely ravish you? Nevermind you're with Mei..." It being clear that Harumi was having quite the image before reality came back and pulled her into check.

"What are you saying?" Yuzu asked, not understanding what her stance was in all of this. Harumi was her best friend, but Matsuri was her friend too, she couldn't exactly pick sides.

"I don't know... I feel terrible for thinking about it but I can't help it. I know I shouldn't care about anything else because I have Matsuri, but what if we're not meant to be together. I mean do you get feelings like this even though you are with Mei?" Harumi asked as she turned her head to Yuzu, hopeful she wasn't alone and a complete monster of a girlfriend.

"Not really... I'm sure it was just the rush of everything that happened tonight because you were making out with him. But that was just part of Matsuri's game," Yuzu tried to be convincing, but even she knew she didn't sound convincing at all.

"... I thought you loved her?" Yuzu asked tentatively. Matsuri was obviously in love with Harumi, that much was clear; She had been infatuated with the girl for years. Harumi somewhere along the line seemed to give in, and slowly warm up to the girl. Again, Yuzu was more than sure Harumi cared deeply for the girl and Harumi herself had said she loved their younger friend, but if Yuzu weighed up both sides of the relationship she could take a guess at who was more committed.

"I do love her!... I just don't know if I can see us spending the rest of our lives together." Harumi said in a low voice, her eyes dropping to the floor as she cursed under her breath at her situation.

"B-but..." Was all Yuzu could muster at her friend's words, she didn't know what she was supposed to say. Though it seemed someone was watching over her as there was a knock at the door before Jasmin slowly walked in, a small smile on her lips.

"Matsuri is looking for you, think she wants to apologise or something?" Jasmin said as she gestured out the door, as if to say the girl was looking for her.

"See? She just won't leave me alone at all... I'll keep you posted," Harumi said as she trudged her way out of the door, only picking her demeanour up once she was actually leaving the room to keep appearances up.

"Sorry about Nate, I think he's caused more trouble today than he's worth," Jasmin laughed as she made her way over to the blonde, who laughed at her statement. "Hey don't worry about it, I'm sure he didn't mean anything by it." Yuzu laughed as she suddenly noticed that she was alone in a bedroom with the girl who supposedly wanted to sleep with her.

"You know how I said me and Nate aren't exclusive?" Jasmin continued as she took a step closer to Yuzu. Yuzu nodded her head nervously as she swallowed the saliva that built up in her mouth. She wasn't mentally prepared to make sense of the situation, her mind was still racing from the bombshell Harumi had just let loose.

"Well I think he might just be going after Harumin, I've told him to back off but I can't say for sure if he will or not. If she throws herself at him he won't say no," It took a second, then two for Yuzu to blink and smile at her friend's words. "Thanks for the heads up," She's just my friend, Yuzu thought to herself, thinking anything was going to happen was ridiculous, this was Mei and Willow's warning getting inside her head. She had never doubted her friend before, she had no reason to start now.

"Also, you look really good tonight, and the not being exclusive... That works for both of us." These words, however, did not come from a friend's point of view. Yuzu felt two hands on her hips as Jasmin closed the last of the distance between them. Having Yuzu backed up against the wall, Jasmin spoke again. "I know you are with Mei, but I won't say a thing. I've wanted you for a long time Yuzu..." The words were said as the deep blue eyes looked down on the blonde. Yuzu couldn't stop her breath hitching in her throat as she felt Jasmin's lips ghost her own while she spoke. Something about the sharp yet soft features of the girl's face and enchantingly cerulean eyes had Yuzu stuck in place.

Forget pushing the girl off, Yuzu's drunken mind was still trying to process the words that were being spoken. Yuzu had too much going on inside her head at the moment, she couldn't focus, but this wasn't right.

"J-Jasmin, I'm happy with Mei..." Yuzu said through a wavering breath, though the hands on her hips didn't release their grip, rather they tightened possessively. "I didn't say you weren't already happy, but I can make you feel... ecstatic." The words were a whispered breath across the blonde's sensitive lips before her head dipped down to press against them. It was slow, gentler than Yuzu had expected and much more than the peck the two had shared before.

It was safe to say Yuzu was drunk, and she wasn't the best drunk but she knew these lips, however soft and luxurious they felt, weren't Mei's.

Knocking the hands off her side gently, Yuzu pushed back on the girl's shoulders to break the kiss. "Jasmin, I appreciate it, b-but I don't want to cheat on Mei. I love her and I don't need you to get... satisfaction. We're just friends," Yuzu said firmly as she tried to offer a smile to the girl who looked slightly shocked, her confidence returning after a second of internal debate.

"You can't knock what you've not tried. Was it not you who said you would never not try something once? Well, all I'm asking for is once," Jasmin smiled briefly before dipping her head down again, capturing the blonde's slightly parted lips with her own. Jasmin was mildly surprised when she felt the blonde beneath her kissing back, given it was only for a split second but it was enough to encourage the girl.

Her lips being released soon after the kiss started Yuzu felt those very lips trailing down her neck, sending butterflies to her core. The blonde's head tipped backwards slightly when Jasmin sucked just below her jaw, the action making a small pant leave her lips.

"N-no Jasmin, I really don't want this." Yuzu said, her breath raspy as her weak hands tried to grip onto the taller's arms to push her away. Yet at her words, Yuzu felt a hand trail along her shoulder before pulling down the strap of her dress, revealing her right breast. It was at that point that Yuzu's mind seemed to catch up with the situation.

"Jasmin I said I don't want to!" Yuzu's raised voice was accompanied by a firm push that put centimetres between the pair, giving Yuzu enough space to pull her dress back and steady herself against the wall. Yuzu watched as she saw a bewildered expression take over the girls face, then annoyance then the smallest part of what Yuzu thought to be hurt.

"It's not that I don't think you're attractive because I think you are, really. But I'm with Mei and we don't do this sort of thing, and I don't want to do this. We're friends that all..." Yuzu said as she got her breath back and stood up straight. Though part of Yuzu thought it was a little ridiculous trying to comfort the girl who had just tried to seduce her knowing full well she was with Mei.

"I'm gonna go," Yuzu said nervously as she checked her dress one last time before making her way out the room. Tonight was just too much for the blonde to cope with.

"Did you really think she would disrespect Mei like that and give in to you?"

Jasmin's head spun around at the sound of a taunting voice, seeing Willow now leaning against the door frame with a small smile on her lips. "Is it really that far fetched? She is a people pleaser," Jasmin said as she too fixed her clothing and made her way towards the slightly older girl.

"Well considering she has never made a pass at anyone in the entire time she has been in a relationship I would say it's quite an unrealistic goal. All you've achieved is losing her as a friend as well." Willow smiled at the girl. She didn't like that Yuzu had been put in this position or the stress that Mei has evidently been going through because of it, but the fact that Jasmin had finally shown what she wanted from the blonde. Thus bringing an end to Mei's stress and hopefully allowing the couple to move forwards.

Jasmin stood in front of the girl for a few moments longer before just walking past her into the living room where she saw everyone else was gathered.

Yuzu was currently giving Mei her coat as she was trying to get the girl out the front door as fast as possible. Mei, however, didn't buy her girlfriend excuse of her just being tired, and so was being rather reluctant about it.

Matsuri and Harumi were in clearly in the middle of a heated discussion, that being obvious to anyone in the room.

While Nate and Ashton seemingly sat in awkward silence stuck between the two squabbling couples.

"Mei c'mon I just wanna go home. I'll explain when we get home just stop being so stubborn." Yuzu said as she gave a slightly pleading look to her girlfriend from the front door. Although reluctantly, Mei gave a lasting look to the group and just before she was about to agree with her girlfriend, Matsuri turned the music off with a sour look. Her argument obviously finished.

"Alright, the party's over. Everybody out." She said blandly, her eyes narrowed in annoyance as she watched her girlfriend pick up her jacket as well.

There were a few minutes of people faffing around before everyone was out of the apartment and getting into taxis. "Do you mind if we share a cab?" Harumi said to Yuzu as she walked out of the flat with a glum expression.

"Sure... what happened once you left?" Yuzu asked as she turned her attention to her friend while Mei took this as a sign and left to the side of the road to try and flag down a taxi.

"Nothing really, she was just getting mad because she thinks I was lying, which I was, and when she tried to make me talk about more I just told her I didn't want to stay the night and would rather just go back to my place. She got really pissy after that and kicked everyone out." Harumi said in a glum tone. It being evident that she wasn't really up for talking and would rather just get home as fast as possible.

"Yuzu," Mei called as she gestured to the cab waiting for them. Giving a short nod to Mei, Yuzu gave a quick wave goodbye to the other couples who were currently doing the same before getting into the taxi.

"So are you going to tell me now?" Mei said as she took her shoes off at the door, clearly slightly annoyed at being kept in the dark about her girlfriend's urgency. Mei had seen Yuzu being dragged off by Harumi for several minutes before Harumi came back several minutes later prompting her and her girlfriend's argument that had Mei's attention. She had only noticed the blonde coming back several minutes later due when she was rushing for them to leave.

Yuzu took a nervous breath before pressing her back against the front door as she felt Mei's eyes on her. "I kissed Jasmin," Yuzu spoke so fast it took Mei a moment to process the words. Initially thinking that Yuzu was referring to the small peck they had shared earlier on in the night, but going off the guilty look on the blonde's face it was obvious this was a kiss Mei hadn't witnessed.

Mei's face countered into one of confused anger, her voice low "... You what?" Mei asked, her fists forming in tight balls as the words of the blonde sunk in. Realising how she had said that Yuzu shook her head.

"No I mean, she kissed me! I told her no, but she kissed me again. B-but I told her I was happy with you and I didn't want to sleep with her... I'm sorry I doubted you, Mei, you were right." Yuzu defended herself in a rushed voice, then after a moments silence, once she saw Mei's features soften, spoke slowly as she apologised, never once breaking eye contact with her girlfriend.

After a few moments of silence, Mei gave Yuzu a once over. "Are you okay?" The younger girl asked as she stood in place watching the blondes every movement.

"I'm fine, Mei, I'm just... I'm sorry I doubted you and made you feel insecure. If I'd have looked more closely I would have been able to stop it soon-" Yuzu, although sincere, her words were cut off by Mei with a soft kiss to the blonde's lips, effectively shutting the blonde up.

"You don't need to apologise for anything," Mei said with a soft smile as she pulled back slightly from the blonde, her eyes gaining a glint in them as she eyed the blonde carefully.

"Now, I didn't dress like this to impress the company at the party..." Mei said as she pulled open the sides of her jacket, revealing her exposed torso covered in lace black. The action instantly perking up the blondes mood as an impish grin grew on her face at the sight before her. Quickly dropping her bag at the door, Yuzu slowly made up the space between her and Mei, her eyes drawn to the girl's torso. It was just something about lingerie that drove her crazy, it made Mei's already stunning body look irresistibly sexy, complimenting her curves and prioritising her breasts: enchanting Yuzu. There had been a growing fire in Yuzu's stomach since the moment she had seen Mei put it on, and that desire had by no means disappeared.

Her hands slipping beneath the jacket, Yuzu gently wrapped her hands around Mei's sides and brought her eyes up to meet Mei's, who had all but lost any kind of comforting look for a needy lustful gaze. As the blonde leaned in there was a gravitational pull between the pair's lips, their lips brushing against each other several times, ghosting the other's lips before the kiss ignited. Yuzu's grip tightening as if to combat the ferocity of the kiss, while Mei's hands appeared on either side of the blonde's head; one through her hair the other the side her neck. Yuzu noticed Mei's fingers were burning against her skin and was successively dominating the kiss. Yuzu had left her wanting for hours, now she was seeing the results of that.

The kiss was hot and needy, fingers clutching at whatever they could find and it wasn't long before their chests were rising rapidly. It was Mei who pulled back first a she felt Yuzu prying her jacket off to expose her milky shoulders. She let the cloth slip to the floor, and watched with a growing blush as Yuzu traced every section of her body with her eyes, she could practically feel Yuzu undressing her with her eyes, the thought alone sent shivers down her spine.

"...Fuck... you look so good Mei," Yuzu said under her breath her eyes still glued to her girlfriend's torso, clearly not finished taking in the sight before her.

"You want a show? I can't quite give you a lap dance, but I can definitely give you a show." Mei gave a low smile as she took the blonde's hand in her own and pulled her arm lightly as she tugged the girl down the hall. Yuzu, mindlessly following as her eyes stuck on the round muscle waving to her from the tight jeans Mei was wearing.

Wait, a show? Oh, fuck this is going to be amazing!

Yuzu's mind finally caught up with what was going on and the words Mei had said in the kitchen as she was gently pushed down onto the desk chair, Mei leaning over her as she wrapped her lips around the small ear lobe.

"How about some music?" Mei asked as she twiddled with the phone in her fingers. If she was going to show off her body and give Yuzu a good night it only seemed appropriate to have some low music on for background noise.

She received a curt nod from the blonde who still seemed mesmerised at the current situation. Mei had said she was open to trying new things in the bedroom and given they had tried a few things, nothing extreme but just an extra bit of excitement.

This, however, was the first time Yuzu had ever received any sort of a show from her girlfriend, and the way Mei was swaying her hips had Yuzu hypnotised as her girlfriend edged closer before lowering herself onto her lap. Leaning in, Mei laced her fingers around her girlfriend's neck and leant in close to the blonde ear, blowing gently on the burning hot skin.

She could hear the blonde's breath catch in her throat as the cold air brushed her ear and body pressed against the blonde. It had been a while since Mei had seen the blonde speechless in moments like this. She remembered the days when a simple kiss would leave the blonde speechless when a swift touch of her hand could make her shiver. This reaction: Yuzu not knowing where to put her hands, her uncontrolled breathing, the flushed cheeks, she was even struggling to speak. This helpless side of her girlfriend had Mei considering dressing for the blonde more often.

"I must say, you've been keeping some things from me..." Mei whispered into the blonde's ear as she took the lobe between her teeth, giving it a gentle pull before her lips moved to taper down the slender neck.

"You didn't tell me you had been with Harumi..." Mei gave a light bite before she pulled down one of the straps on the blonde's dress, nails scraping over the smooth skin as they followed the fabric.

"And I think it's about time I give you a lesson,"

Yuzu felt her heart jump at the mention of her best friend's name, she had assumed they would be having an argument about this reveal, she never imagined that she would be sat on a chair with her girlfriend dressed in lace on top of her.

"M-Mei I didn't sleep with Harum-" Yuzu's stuttering was cut off as Mei pressed her lips firmly against hers; It was heavy and full of propose, her tongue soon coaxing its way into the blonde's mouth with no resistance. Hands gripped as her hair as Yuzu's hands finally found a place on Mei's hips, yet Yuzu's newly found confidence as she fought back in the kiss was broken as Mei pulled the blonde's head back with a fistful of hair; Not enough to hurt, but enough so that Yuzu was looking up to Mei as their lips ghosted each other's again.

"The only name I want to hear leave your lips tonight is mine," Mei growled through her teeth as her head dipped back in to grasp the blonde's lips when she received another nod from the blonde.

Yuzu watched for several more minutes as Mei continued to shower her in kisses, along with completing several moves Mei would definitely describe as indecent.

It wasn't long before Yuzu had reached her limit, she felt her mouth go dry as she watched her girlfriend pulling back up from her squat as she flaunted her ass at the blonde. Just as Mei was coming up, Yuzu had finally moved from her chair and spun the younger girl around as she found her lips with lustful desperation, her hands gripping tightly to the round muscle that was just being shown off to her.

"I want you out that dress," Mei said in a low voice, pulling the blonde's lower lip with her teeth as she allowed Yuzu to massage her muscles.

Wordlessly, Yuzu turned around presenting the zipper of her dress to Mei, it's being mere seconds before uncoordinated fingers started to pry the zipper down to reveal the peachy skin below. Yuzu found her dress at her ankles in recorded time, but she was proud of the fact that she had successfully managed to unbutton Mei's jeans and tug them down just enough that when she pushed the raven-haired girl down onto the bed, the only thing hiding Mei's outfit was pried off in one swift movement.

Yuzu breath and movement was cut short as she looked at her girlfriend lying on their bed. Mei's lingerie had not disappointed Yuzu with its lower half, having tight black shorts. Yuzu thought it looked like silk but she couldn't be sure, she was too focused on taking in the sight of Mei dropped across their double bed in nothing but this phenomenal underwear.

She seemed to forget that she too was standing in nothing but her underwear and was just teasing Mei as she stood doing nothing.

A grin slowly made its way onto the blondes face as she slowly walked toward Mei on the sheets, stating at her stomach Yuzu pressed a gentle kiss there and smiled and the intake of breath Mei took. Making her way up the torso rather fast, Yuzu finally took Mei in a deep kiss as she pressed her entire form against Mei. The skin to skin contact felt to right, neither wanted it to end.

The make out was hot and as needy as the rest had been that night, Mei's hands wandered for long enough before the removed the blonde's bra with a snap, removing the material with purpose as her lips went straight to the two peaks just revealed to her. It should be noted, that Mei wanted to be in charge tonight and had not long since, flipped their positions, now straddling the older hips she had her arms pressed either side of the girls head, pressed into the mattress as Mei worked on pleasuring the blonde.

With the rustling of sheets and heavy breathing that was happening Mei was starting to feel very hot as the minutes passed. Realising the blonde, Mei sat up straight as she went to unzip her own undergarment, but was stopped as two hot hands ran down her arms, a pout on the suspect's lips.

"No, leave it on..." Yuzu gave a grin as she watched Mei hesitate for a moment longer, before lowering her arms. "It turns me on so much... let's take these off..." Sitting up, Yuzu's fingers worked to unbuckle the small clips that connected the shorts to the main body piece, though it fit so well to Mei's form Yuzu didn't see the point in the clips as the material clung to her skin like a lifeline.

Returning her earlier position of being on top, Yuzu removed the silk-like material, slowly dragging them down the long milky legs. Looking back at her girlfriend, Yuzu could see the want in the lavender eyes, she was asking Yuzu not to tease, she needed her.

And the joyful blonde was more than willing to oblige. Shuffling forwards, Yuzu gently spread the girl's legs before running her hands down her thighs and wrapping around them. With one last look to her girlfriend, Yuzu watched as Mei had her eyes scrunched shut and head back in the pillows as she waited in anticipation. Taking in the sweet smell from below her, Yuzu finally gave Mei what she wanted with long lick to the glistening lips. A needy moan escaped Mei's lips as her hand instantly went to the blonde locks between her legs.

That was the start of a long night for the two, Yuzu managed to keep Mei in her undergarment for one more round before she gave in and let Mei remove it. Though the sight underneath was just as rewarding, fueling the blonde even more. She was sure this was the best sex they had had in a long time, probably because Mei was trying to dominate her every chance she got.

There was even a point when Mei had taken on Yuzu's advice and spanked her firm ass while doing her from behind, the moan that came from the blonde as a result was more enjoyable that Mei had expected. A suitable punishment that sent butterflies to both girls stomachs, prompting Mei to do it again at the blondes request. 'Request' would be a nice way of putting it. Yuzu had her head buried in the pillows with her ass up as Mei fucked her hard, it was more of a beg that anything else, accompanied by moans and gasps.

Breathing was harsh as the two finally cooled off, the bedsheet loosely draped over them as they tried to catch their breaths. It had been several minutes since they had called it a night and snuggled up, both seemed exhausted as sweat was stuck to their bodies and breathing just under control.

Head resting on Mei's shoulder, Yuzu gave a light chuckle, tracing her fingers over the girl's stomach. "You really are good at giving punishments, maybe ill have to misbehave more often." Yuzu grinned lightly as Mei gave a light scoff.

"Or you could just be honest when we're having sex and admit you like to be dominated, you said it yourself you're a natural bottom," Mei said after a few moments, her smirk that of a winner. Yuzu laughed wholeheartedly at Mei's comment, she loved that she was the only one who saw this side of her girlfriend.

"I really love you, you know that Mei." After a few minutes of silence, Yuzu said quietly as she closed her eyes. This warm wholesome feeling she got around Mei wasn't something she could describe with words. She felt it was just impossible.

"I know," Mei smiled back as she pulled the covers over them properly, and tucked Yuzu's head under her chin as she got comfy in the blondes embrace ready to go to sleep. Tonight although there were parts Mei would have happily erased, turned out quite well. Part of her had believed it would end in an argument with one of them sleeping on the couch, but she was wrong. Yuzu had been strong and proven her wrong, now they were in a good place and for the first time in months, the thought of the brunette didn't stir any feeling in her chest. All she could focus on was the girl in her arms laying several kisses on her bare chest as they drifted off to sleep.
