Keeping up Appearances

Part III

By Devon Masterson

Haruka moaned and opened her eyes as the morning sun warmed her body. She arched her back suddenly and sighed in pleasure. Her breath hissed as she saw Zoicite's head buried between her legs. His tongue's darting in and out of her in such a frantic pace roused her from her sleep and made her keenly aware of everything that happened last night. "Ah," she sighed in pleasure as she gripped the sheets. Her orgasm took hold of her as she lifted her body as high off the bed as she possibly could then fell back on to the bed breathing hard.

"Morning," he whispered as he lay beside her. "I'm glad you liked that."

Haruka ran her hands through her hair. "That was one helluva way to wake up."

"I rather enjoyed it myself," he replied as he looked at her casually. "What am I going to do about you?"

"What are 'we' going to do?" Haruka corrected him as she sat up and looked at him. "I mean I've never thought I…"

"I know what you mean. I have a boyfriend," Zoicite sighed as he sat up suddenly. "This whole thing has been reckless."

"You want to end it then?" Haruka asked. She wasn't sure what she wanted herself; the whole thing was just too weird.

"I'd be lying if I said yes," he answered as he stood. "I guess this will be our little secret. I mean what could happen other than we enjoy each other's company."

"I think maybe we should quit while we're ahead."

"You mean go on pretending that we have no attraction toward each other and then be all over each other like dogs in heat when we finally get caught alone?" he asked as he looked at her incredulously.

"Just like a man to think with his dick," Haruka muttered as she swung her legs around the side of the bed to get dressed. This conversation was getting out of hand.

Zoicite rushed over to her and grabbed her gently. "Why can't you admit that you're attracted to me? You're always trying to hide your feelings. Don't always be afraid to put yourself out," he said staring into her eyes. "Yeah, I have a boyfriend and I love him. But I'm attracted to you, I find you sexy. Thinking about taking you makes me want to give it to you so hard that you can't walk straight. I admit it, why can't you?"

Haruka's eyes widened in surprise and then she blushed. She had been doing that a lot since she met him. She shook herself from his grip and proceeded to get dressed. "Take me home," she commanded.

Zoicite shook his head in defeat and got dressed. About ten minutes later, they pulled into her driveway. Haruka opened the door and put one leg out then turned to towards Zoicite and kissed him deeply. "One year," she said as she pulled away. "Then we're just friends and no more." She shut the door and then leaned through the open window. "And by the way….you do make me wet," she added as she walked away.

"Whoa," he whispered to himself as she walked to the door.

~*~*~*~

"Haruka?" Michiru asked.

Haruka looked up from her sketches for ad. "Yeah?"

"Let's go do something," she replied as she put down her cross-stitch that she had been working on for Hortaru. "I don't care. I just want to hang out with you. It's been like months since we've really done something together."

"Well I figured you were busy with the orchestra," Haruka commented as she put down her pad.

"I'm doing anything now," Michi said as she stood, "let's go to the movies."

"Ok, let's go," Haruka replied as she stood. She ran her hands through her bangs.

"Great." The two friends went to the foyer and put on their shoes and left. "I noticed that you let your hair grow out. What made you not cut it?"

Haruka smiled, "I thought it was time for a change." She looked in the side view mirror as her long hair blew in the wind. It was longer than Michi's now.

"A new girl I see," Michi noted as she looked at her bestfriends eyes. "That would explain all the changes. She's trying to impress someone! I'm so happy for you, Haruka. I'm glad you found someone too!"

"No actually, I'm just concentrating on work," Haruka commented. "There hasn't been anybody since you."
"Really…I…"
"Don't worry about it, Michi," Haruka soothed as she saw her friend close to tears. "Right now there isn't a woman in my life that I'm interested in."

"You haven't had sex in a year?"

"I wouldn't go that far…"
Michi smiled, "Oh I see. I guess old habits die hard."

"If you only knew what I've been up to, Michi." "Something like that," Haruka commented aloud.

An hour later they were sitting in the movie theater, watching the previews. "Would you look at them, they need to get a room?" Haruka muttered disgusted, as she looked a couple kissing two rows in front of them.

The couple broke apart and the guy stared at them evilly. Michiru blushed in the darkness and the couple turned around looking at the screen. "I'm going to get some popcorn and soda," Michiru whispered as she started to get up.

"I'll get it. The line is probably ridiculous now and I've seen this movie before you haven't," Haruka replied as she stood. "I'll be back."

Michi nodded as she sat back and watched the movie as it started.

Haruka stood in line waiting when she was grabbed out of line and pulled into dark causeway near the theaters. "I wish you would've told me you and your boyfriend were here," she said coolly.

"He sprung it on me. We haven't gone out in while, I didn't think I had to clear it with you," Zoicite replied. "And what is she doing with you anyway."

"I don't have to answer to you," Haruka said coldly as she started to move away.

"Why so angry, Haru-chan?" Zoicite asked playfully. "Are you growing attached to me?"

"I'm just a friend who wonders why you're with him when he doesn't really care about you," Haruka answered.

"Is that so?" Zoicite whispered as his hands trailed to her thigh and lifted her leg. "So you think I could do better?"

"Of course. You don't need to be his trophy," she answered as she felt him kiss her neck. "Someone might see us."

"It's too dark," he replied. "And before you say anything else we'll tell them that the line was really long…" he added slowly as he lifted her leg to his shoulder and traced the cloth near her sweet spot. He could already feel the moisture. "I'm so glad you're off your period."
"Me too," she replied as she felt him flip her panties to the side. His thick dick pushed up against her opening and then entered her forcefully. She bit her lip as he thrusted inside her deeply and hard. She buried her face in his shoulder as he moved in her so that she wouldn't scream out and let everyone know what they were doing. She could hear him trying his best also to keep quiet so as not to alert anyone of their affair. "Oh gods please," she whispered. "Zoicite…"

"You like this?" Zoicite asked as he pushed harder into her. This was on his favorite ways to have her other than taking her from behind. He could always slide in more deeply that way, but nothing was like taking her up against the wall where he could use his power and the wall to drive into her deeper. He had been hard all day thinking about taking her. It was so frustrating working around her period and ovulation cycle. But it was either that or condoms and he hated having something between them. Having her only two weeks out of the month was somewhat tight, but they were already reckless in the beginning. They were quite lucky that she didn't get pregnant. How would he explain that?

"Y-yes," she stuttered as fought for control. She would get him back later for this; perhaps she would go for a little ride.

Zoicite smirked at her answer when he started to come. "Haru-chan," he said lowly in her ear he thrusted harder to make her come.

"Oh," she called out softly as her climax broke across her, "Zoi..cite."

Zoicite nearly fell against her as he pulled himself out of her and brought her leg down. He held her. "Haru-chan," he sighed softly. "I..."

"Michi's popcorn!" Haruka remembered as she pulled away from him. "I have to get back before she misses me." Haruka ran off leaving him standing in the dark causeway.

Zoicite leaned his head against the wall in disappointment. "I guess I might as well being heading back myself," he thought as she emerged from the dark causeway. All of a sudden, he was pushed against the wall.

"I forgot something," Haruka replied as she kissed him deeply. "Enjoy the movie," she whispered in his mouth as she pulled away and went to the concession counter.

"A year's not going to be enough."

~*~*~*~

Haruka wiped her face as she finished changing the oil in her car. She should have no problem winning tomorrow's race. She smiled in pride at her car that she enhanced herself then thought about yesterday when Kasuka called her into her office yesterday. "Leaving Japan is a big step. But there is so much opportunity in California; I could open my own firm finally. But then I'd have to leave…Zoicite. He probably wouldn't care anyway, he'd still have Malachite."

"Hey," Zoicite called lowly from the garage door.

Haruka rolled out from under her car. "What's wrong?" she asked as she stood up. She wiped her hands pulled her coveralls off. "You two had a fight?"

"Yeah," he answered as he leaned against the wall.

"What about?" she asked.

"The same old thing," Zoicite replied as he ran his hands through his hair. "We both had some words and…"

Haruka hugged him and sighed, "You don't need him."

"We've been together for years…"

Haruka pulled away. She growing tired of this cycle. "Zoicite wake up! You two have grown apart. You've become his trophy, a door mat to wipe his feet on when he's resting from running around."

"It's not like that," Zoicite said in his defense.

"Oh be man, and face it," Haruka fumed as she stepped away. "You deserve so much better. Someone who understands and respects you."
"And who is that, Haruka? You?" he accused. "Are you the one who can fulfil my needs?"

Haruka's eyes widened in shock. "Well you'd be better off with me than him," she answered as she blushed.

Zoicite shook his head. "Whatever."

Haruka's cheeks further got hot at his comment. "So I was convient when you want to play the man."
Zoicite's eyes flashed in anger and he clinched his fists. "No, just a convient screw."

Haruka narrowed her eyes and punched him in the jaw. "Get out and never come near me again."

Zoicite held his jaw and walked away as he shot her a dirty look. "Be glad too."

~*~*~*~

"What's wrong?" Malachite asked as Zoicite sat on the side of the bed. "I never seen you so withdrawn even when we…"

"Do you love me?" Zoicite interrupted.

Malachite smirked, "You know how I feel about you."

"You haven't told me in over a year that you loved me," Zoicite replied. "You're dodging the question. Do you love me?"

"Yes," Malachite answered.

"Why?"

"Well you're gorgeous and you're always here for me," he answered. "You know what I like."

"I see," Zoicite commented as he stood up. He walked into the bathroom and slammed the door.

"Honey, come out," Malachite called through the door. Zoicite didn't answer as he knocked on the door. After several minutes, he started knocking again. "You're scaring me. What are you doing in there?" he asked as he started to panic. In response to his last comment, Zoicite stepped out of the bathroom wearing the same clothes he wore the first he and Haruka went out. "You cut your hair?"

"I thought it was time for a change," he remarked as he sported his new short haircut.

Malachite wrinkled his nose. "I like it better long. It'll grow back though."

"And I will cut it when it does," Zoicite replied as she put his baseball cap on his head. "And just like my hair I'm cutting you loose."

"What?" Malachite asked. "Look, whatever I did I'm sorry."

"Be a man," Zoicite replied as he walked away. "Besides I'm sure that whatever-her-name-is that you've been seeing will love to have you all to herself."

Malachite's mouth opened in shock and then he clamped it shut. "Well, Ru-chan, this was you've been waiting for."

Zoicite shut the door behind him and sighed. "How can I face her now," he wondered as he walked to his car. "It's been a week. I wonder how's she doing…"

Haruka sat on the bathroom floor next to the bathtub. She held a cloth to her head and took deep breaths as she prepared what to do next. All of a sudden she leaned over into the toilet and threw up again. She wiped her face and looked at the discarded test, from a couple of days ago, in the trashcan. She couldn't believe she was pregnant. She had to get away. She was already in the process of moving to United States. There were only a few odds and ends and she'd be far away from him as possible.

A soft knock came through the door breaking through her thoughts. "Haru, can I come in."

"Shit," Haruka sighed. "I thought she was out running errands."

"Please," she pleaded.

"Come in."

Michiru opened the door and saw Haruka sitting on the floor. "Here drink this," she said as she gave her a glass of ginger ale. "Mom, told me that it helped her with her morning sickness."

"Thanks," Haruka replied softly as she took the glass and began to drink slowly.

"Does he know?" she asked softly once she finished drinking.

"He has made it clear that he didn't want to be a part of my life," Haruka answered as she stood. "It'll just me and the baby, besides I don't like men anyway."

Michiru smiled in spite of herself. "Have you been to the doctor?"

"Yes, I'm 6 weeks. I tested myself then went to the doctor," Haruka answered as she went her room to lay down. Her room was almost completely empty except a small cot that she was using until she left.

"Everything ok with you and the baby?" she asked worriedly as she followed Haruka.

"Fine. I'm healthy and the baby's healthy. I have a doctor's appointment with an obstetrician in San Francisco on Monday," she answered as she lay back on the cot.

"What's his name?"

"I want to forget," Haruka replied as she yawned.

Michi smoothed Haruka's bangs away from her face. "When you…"

"Michi, I'm never going to want to talk about," Haruka began, "it was the classic story, got drunk and then got pregnant."

Michi narrowed her eyes. "If you're telling me that horrible lie you must have loved him very much," Michi commented as she stood. "Ka-chan, you don't have to be so strong all the time. We'll talk when you're ready. In the mean time, I'm going to San Francisco with you to make sure you take care of yourself."

Haruka turned on her side. "This is between you and me," she said softly, " and thank you, Michi."
Michiru smiled and closed the door to the room softly.

"You're a jack ass, Zoicite," Haruka mentally cursed as tears flowed onto her pillow

"You took my heartbeat from me.

This is the saddest story…

Why me?

You denied me

Now I'm forced to roam this planet sadly,

You took my heartbeat from me,

Should've just stabbed it for me…" Kelis, Get Along with You
