"TALKING"

THINKING OR P.O.V

Terms of Endearment

The red haired woman stared out at the ocean as she let the fresh sea breeze hit her hot and bothered skin. Nao was so caught up within her thoughts that she couldn't hear the heavy foot steps upon the board walk coming behind her.

"So this is where it all started huh?"

Nao turned around to see a smiling Natsuki along with a now parked imperial blue Camaro in the parking lot. "Yea this is where it all started, this is where we made our pack for high school to destroy everything and-"

"To leave no survivors," said Natsuki finishing the red-haired woman's sentence.

"Oh boy when I think about that we went into high school thinking we were invincible," said Nao while smirking. "Yeah we sounded like a bunch of warriors back then," said Natsuki who was now leaning on the metal railing along with Nao.

"So when did you start loving her?"

The cobalt haired woman knew who her friend was talking about and she made no effort to hide the truth. "Really I have always loved her, but if your asking when I fell for her all I can tell you is that it is has always been there," said cobalt-haired woman looking a the ocean ahead of her.

"I see… look Natsuki I cant say how sorry I am for everything, it's just that after talking, or more like having people yell at me. I finally realize that I have been hurting the most important thing of all and that's our friendship. Hell I also had to realize that your sister kicked my ass and I don't want that again," said Nao with a smirk.

Natsuki couldn't help but give a light giggle at her friends joke. "I'm sorry for that Shizuru can sometimes lose it when it comes down to me," said Natsuki looking down in embarrassment. "I mean who could blame her she's in love with a beautiful woman," said Nao before enveloping Natsuki in a bear hug. Natsuki could feel Nao's tears sinking through her shirt the cobalt-haired woman gently rubbed her friends back for reassurance.

"I'm here Nao I will always be your friend you got that. Remember the promise we made when we were in high school," said Natsuki softly.

"Yeah I remember," said Nao.

"That's why you dumb red head I can't let you go, because we made a promise to be friends forever," said Natsuki with a smile.

"Yeah friends forever," said Nao with a smile before wiping away the remaining tears that dwelled on her face.

"Well look what we found here a spider and wolf pup hugging don't you just feel the love," said Chie to her wife. "Now dear, stop making fun of them," said Aoi with a smile.

"Yeah shut your trap Harada," said Nao with a blush. Shortly after Chie and Aoi both joined in the hug all except Shizuru, after everyone broke the hug the gang focused there attention at Nao and Shizuru.

Natsuki motioned over to stop Nao from walking over towards Shizuru, but felt a hand on her arm signaling her to stop. The emerald-eyed woman looked over to see the source that was stopping her and it came from none other then Chie. "You have to let them work things out this is both Shizuru's and Nao's honor on the line," whispered Chie into Natsuki's ear.

"So you're marrying my best friend huh?"

"Yes I am Yuuki-san," said Shizuru with a firm tone. "You know I always hated you Shizuru, I hated the fact that you made your way into my best friend's heart before me. The fact that Natsuki always thought about you first before me I hated it… I hated all of it, but you know I realized it was not my place to hate you," said Nao looking straight at Shizuru.

"You know Yuuki-san I use to feel the same way about you also. Thanks to Natsuki she has made me see past that and on to the future and that's something you taught her. So in some weird way I have you to thank Yuuki-san," said Shizuru holding out her hand to shake.

"Thank me huh, you know what take care of my best friend here," said Nao pointing over to a blushing Natsuki, before taking Shizuru's hand in her own.

"Oh boy I'm glad this is over," said Chie to Aoi.

I'm glad this is over also.

Two months later.

"Hurry the heck up pup your wife to be is waiting on you," said Nao before living to take her seat with the others.

"Is my little muffin ready to go," said Seiga with a smile. Shortly after Natsuki came out wearing a white wedding gown that fit the curves of her body perfectly being guided along with Seiga. The nether lovers could hear the music playing in the background there eyes focused on each other from a distance.

Soon after the emerald-eyed woman was soon in front of her family and friends, as Natsuki walked down the isle she looked over to Nao, Reito, Mai, Chie, Aoi, and her mother. A small feeling of disappointment crossed the cobalt-haired woman's mind seeing that she could not invite others, but it was soon replaced by the smile of her lover standing at the alter.

Every moment felt like an eternity for the too as vows were exchanged all Natsuki could see was the shinning light in her lovers crimson irises. The two lovers stared eternally and lovingly into each others eyes as though they wanted every fabric of that moment to last forever. Nether of the lovers paid attention to the priest until there names were called.

"Now Natsuki Kruger do you take Shizuru Viola to be your lawfully wedded wife through sickness and health for richer and poorer," said the priest.

"I do," said Natsuki with a smile.

"Do you Shizuru Viola take Natsuki Kruger to be your lawfully wedded wife through sickness and health for richer and poorer," repeated the priest.

"I do," said Shizuru with tears in her eyes.

"By the powers invested in me I now pronounce you wife and wife you may now kiss the bride," said the priest with a smile. Without thinking, Shizuru leaned down and cupped Natsuki's face in her hands. Shizuru's lips pressed gently against Natsuki's own while she closed her eyes. The crimson-eyed woman's slightly calloused thumbs wiped away the tear marks that were produced earlier from her lover and soothed Natsuki's quivering lips. It had all come as a shock to the cobalt-haired woman. Natsuki was no doubt shocked, but her lips acted on their own accord. She gave in to her. Instantly, after the shared kiss there was a light clapping from the small audience that sat below.

Shortly after the reception Shizuru and Natsuki made there way back to their home, Natsuki felt her self being lifted up and carried upstairs. The wonderful reality soon set in with the cobalt-haired woman, that Shizuru was all hers and she was all Shizuru's. After being gently set down on the king size bed below them, once again Natsuki's nervousness set in, but the cobalt-haired woman also felt a stronger emotion that laid dormant inside her.

Soon emerald met crimson; Natsuki looked into her new wife's loving but pleading eyes. "Natsuki c-can I kiss you?" asked Shizuru in a pleading yet low voice. Natsuki shook her head in approval to her wife's question. Suddenly Shizuru's lips were on hers. Shizuru felt Natsuki's arm snake around her back neck, pulling her even closer while the other one made there way in Shizuru's tawny locks. The two lovers felt a sameness yet difference to the kiss that they were sharing. It felt as though was nothing different about the kiss and yet this kiss was nothing like all the others before both bodies felt as thought they were living yet dying.

After breaking for air Shizuru stopped to rest her forehead lightly upon her lovers. Natsuki looked up to see dark crimson eyes lustfully looking into her emerald eyes with a passion of burning desire. "You don't know how long I have wanted to do that," said Shizuru now regaining her breath.

"I love you so much Shizuru, I know you have waited for a long time. So please zuru make love to me, give me proof of your love," said Natsuki. Shortly after Natsuki's clothes were soon off and feeling odd Natsuki looked over to her lover who was still clothed.

"No fair zuru your clothes are still on, you never play fair," said Natsuki with a pout. "Ara I'm sorry suki let me make you comfortable," said Shizuru. "No here let me," said Natsuki removing Shizuru's jacket. "You know what I'm still shocked that you wanted to wear a tux, I looks sexy on you," said Natsuki with a seductive look in her emerald irises.

Shortly after Shizuru's clothes were off and both lovers' were completely naked. Forgetting their nakedness, Shizuru pulled her wife closer. A soft moan escaped Natsuki's lips, and Shizuru captured it within her mouth. Natsuki was beginning to turn the crimson-eyed woman on; Shizuru couldn't help the throaty moan that was left deep within her chest. Shizuru's hands found refuge in emerald-eyed woman's cobalt locks, and Shizuru pulled her closer to deepen the kiss.

Natsuki's lightly damp chest rubbed against Shizuru's, the tawny haired sister could tell her lovers nipples were erect. Now Natsuki's womanhood twitched with desire, and now the emerald-eyed woman's mind was soon clouded in a lust-filled haze. Shizuru's rough but soft hands moved away from Natsuki's upper body and began tracing the length of her sides before running further and cupping her round bottom. The emerald-eyed woman's own hands traveled down her lover's chest, exploring the already known, but wanting to relive the excitement. Her fingers raked over every defined muscle with a desperate want that was only just growing. Their kiss intensified, opening up for each other to venture in without any rejection.

Natsuki had pulled back first, gasping for air, but in mere seconds she had launched back in for more. Tongues slid together and trails of saliva danced in the small spaces between them.

Moans and whimpers filled the sticky air and breathed down the necks of their tantalizing bodies. Perspiration drizzled down prickled skin, only to be stopped in its tracks and lapped up by a hot, moist muscle.

Shizuru couldn't contain her sanity any longer. Natsuki was driving her to the brink, and crimson-eyed woman had to release it all before she ended up ripping her wife to shreds. Natsuki shivered, but her moan was of want and of nothing more. Shizuru held Natsuki up easily with one hand; so that the younger woman sitting in her lovers lap Shizuru's intense stare never looking away.

"Are you ready for this my Natsuki, I am not going to lie it may hurt, but I'm here for you every step of the way," said Shizuru. "Yes I am ready I have always been ready," said Natsuki with a smile. Shortly after that was said Shizuru's digits made there way to the entrance of her wife's womanhood; taking a deep breath Shizuru pushed her way into her lovers soaking hot womanhood.

"Mmm..." Shizuru groaned with her head buried in her wife's neck. Natsuki was still so tight, and she swallowed Shizuru's digits completely. Shizuru felt the cobalt haired woman stretch around to accommodate her fingers, the feeling was amazing. Still new to this herself, Shizuru contemplated on her next move. Her breath warmed the skin right under Natsuki's chin, leaving goose bumps as the aftermath.

"Are you in any pain?" said Shizuru with a worried look in her crimson orbs. "I was, but the pain stopped don't worry I'm alright you can move now," said Natsuki with a small smile.

Shizuru gently pulled out, claiming her loves lips once more and forcing Natsuki's mind away from the dull ache. Then the crimson-eyed woman pushed the two digits back inside her wife. Shizuru's grip on her wife's hips tightened and she pulled out slowly, before slamming once again all the way back in. she had hit something, for Natsuki had yelled her name in an exasperated gasp. She pulled out again, faster this time, and hit home. Loving the little whimpers she received, Shizuru continued her actions, grudgingly getting faster. Still new to the little things that made Natsuki cringe in desire, Shizuru had put her skills into play.

Hot whispers and shallow breaths echoed through the room, drenched with passionate kisses, a low moan broke through. Wet bodies that glistened with light sweat slid together in perfect unison, eliciting noises from each other.

Natsuki's mouth locked onto Shizuru's as her fingers wound themselves in Shizuru's dark golden locks. Shizuru bit down on her bottom lip just hard enough for a gasp to escape Natsuki before Shizuru plunged her tongue in to meet her wife's. Her left hand took its place at Natsuki's hip and then slid up to cup one of her large breasts, tweaking the nipple.

"Ohhhh..." The younger sister tilted her head away, her eyes fixating on the ceiling just above her. They were sealed closed as a soft whimper formed on Natsuki's lips, her body arching away from her lover. Shizuru's pace was fast, yet not frantic, and her mouth kissed and nipped at her cobalt lover's throat now. The older sibling's skillful tongue would then dart out and lick the side of her loves neck and grip the cobalt-haired woman's hips just a little harder, pressing her body closer and sandwiching Natsuki against her body.

Shizuru caught Natsuki off guard with another hit against her spot. A little wail tore through her throat and jolted her head backwards with every thrust. Her mouth was wide open, but only silent screams filled the room.

Shizuru's hand traveled down under Natsuki's thighs and lifted her up, hooking her legs higher around her sturdy torso. Her breasts jiggled and her hands frenetically searched for a place to busy themselves. They gripped at the base of Shizuru's now damp long, tawny hair.

"Hard—ah!" Shizuru had already complied with her younger sisters pleas before they had left her kiss-swollen lips.

The crimson eyed woman's digits slammed into Natsuki soaking, tight, wet cavern, and her nails dug into wife's thighs. Her mouth once again claimed a pert nipple, biting and tugging at the swollen bead. Natsuki gasped, her eyes shutting tighter. The sounds of skin on skin, slapping against one another, filled her ears; Shizuru's harsh breathing, her groans, her moans, her pants. The pleasure was all so much, and it was only building. Natsuki's nails left her wife's hair to claw into her skin. Scarlet liquid lightly bled down her back.

"S-Shizuru!" Shizuru's pace had gotten faster and she gripped onto Natsuki as if for dear life. The pleasure building inside Natsuki was almost too much, and the cobalt haired woman was nearly arriving at her limits.

"Dammit!" Shizuru's grunt was muffled into Natsuki's neck and her poundings increased. The emerald-eyed woman's eyes crossed briefly and her toes curled. Her body arched even further, her mouth opening in a silent scream. Then it all tore loose.

"S-Shizuru!" Shizuru's name was all but a screech. The older sibling's lips slammed into younger sibling's and dominated the emerald-eyed woman's mouth as she continued to ride out the waves of passion until Natsuki nearly collapsed from exhaustion; her knees were buckling from lack of energy. Their kiss ended, and Shizuru leaned her forehead against her own.

"You're beautiful," Shizuru's words weren't awkward like they usually would've been any other time she said them. Natsuki's breath mingled with her wife's and flooded over the bridge of her nose. Too tired to support her any longer, Shizuru slid the remaining digits from her lover Natsuki pouted at the immediate void. Exhaustion also calming the tawny-haired woman she fell back on two the bed with Natsuki in her arms.

"I love you so much," said Natsuki who was now drifting to sleep in her lovers arms.

"I love you too my Natsuki," said Shizuru before letting sleep over take her.

I will always love you beyond the terms of endearment.
