Pairing: Helena x Kokoro

Genre: Romance/Drama

Disclaimer: I do not own Dead or Alive or any of its characters.

Author's Note: Now that I think about it, DOES Kokoro even have a husbando to love? Ahhhh, doesn't matter. Anyways, I should write Helena x Kokoro more often. They're so good together~! This is completely new by the way, so please enjoy~

Helena Douglas. Head of DOATEC and also…the older half-sister of Kokoro. Many admire her because of her mature appearance and behavior. The French woman doesn't mind this kind of attention, however, there is only one person she admires the most. And that person is Kokoro herself. Helena doesn't know why, but just looking at her cute appearance makes her heart beat every single time, even after the geisha is calling her "Onee-sama" from now on. It pains her to think that this love is so sinful, despite the fact that they are half-sisters. But the French woman doesn't care what anyone thinks. All that matters is that the little half-sister is the only one she'll truly love.

Helena invites herself to Kokoro's home after doing so much work at the office. It's stressful, but definitely worth it. She has Kokoro's permission to stay over as many times and as long as she wishes. Those two have become close as friends ever since they reunited. But…Helena wishes that they are just more than "friends" or "sisters". She lies on the couch while putting an arm on her forehead, sighing in exhaustion at the thought.

"Is something the matter, Onee-sama?" Kokoro asks.

The blonde lifts her arm while lifting her head a little to see her little sister standing there with a polite smile. "No, my dear. I'm fine. I'm exhausted, that's all," she replies, her thick French accent being music to Kokoro's ears.

"I made tea if you want some." The dark haired girl gestures toward the tray of tea on the table.

Helena sits up to see that Kokoro has already prepared the cups and kettle on top of the tray. "Sure, I would like some."

"Alright, then." Kokoro closes her eyes with a small smile, pouring the tea into one of the cups and handing it to the blonde woman.

Helena takes an elegant sip, closing her eyes and hums at the taste. "Mmm…tastes wonderful~"

"I'm glad you like it. Here, let me sit with you." The raven haired girl allows herself to sit next to her older-half sister and take the cup she poured for herself to take a few sips.

Helena is happy that her little sister is having some tea with her, though, she wishes this moment could last forever. Her feelings for her are growing stronger and stronger every time she's near her. Kokoro turns to the blonde and smiles a gentle smile with the French woman doing the same with a slight blush on her face.

"You okay?" Kokoro asks.

"Yes, my dear. I'm totally fine," Helena takes another sip and gently sets the cup down. "Thanks for the tea. I…have something to do."

"Already? Awwww…I thought we're going to spend time together," Kokoro pouts adorably. "That's why you walked in here, right?"

"I better go bathe and freshen up. Work was stressful anyways."

"Mmmm…alright," Kokoro says. "Don't take too long. I'm planning on making dinner soon."

Helena nods and goes off towards Kokoro's room to shut the door behind her. She lets out a soft sigh and walks over toward her little half-sister's bed. She sits on it, gently glides her hand on the sheets and then back. It's warm…warm with Kokoro's scent. The French Woman doesn't know what's gotten into herself. Falling in love with her little half-sister emotionally and sexually. After reuniting with her, she's been like this. She may be outed as a pervert from now on. But she doesn't care. Her love for Kokoro will always be the same. She'll look at no one else but her. However…how will she be able to tell her little half-sister? How will she react? Only time will tell for sure. They've been spending time together for a while and they are getting along well. But Helena's feelings for her began to grow stronger and stronger. She doesn't know if she'll be able to hold them any longer. Kokoro is just so cute, elegant, merciful and gentle, just like Kasumi, the runaway ninja. Helena would have gone out with her, but the ginger has her own sister, Ayane that she's going out with. In fact, they're already having a sexual intercourse with one another. She's happy for her errand girl, but what about her? Surely, she should be as brave as Kasumi to confess her feelings, yet why is it so hard?

"This is bad…" she says to herself.

She decides to go take a bath now to clear her thoughts.

**Next Day**

"Anything you need, Helena-sama?" Marie Rose asks as she is carrying a bunch of documents in her hand.

"No," Helena answers. "Thanks, though."

"Are you feeling okay, Helena-sama? Your face seems a little red every time I see you."

"I'm fine, don't worry. Thanks for your concern."

"N-no problem," Marie says as she turns to leave, but slightly turns her head back to her mistress. She's been worried about her for a while, but whenever she asks her about something, she says she's fine. Until today, it's up to the point where the petite girl is growing a bit suspicious of her. As much as she wants to look further into this, she feels that she shouldn't bother Helena like this. She goes to deliver the documents outside her office rom.

Helena lets out a soft sigh as she puts a hand on her head while shaking it a little. Work isn't the only thing that's stressing her out. It's the fact that she's trying so hard to think of what to say to Kokoro if she does confess to her. It's been bothering her since this morning. The young geisha in training is also concerned for her, but Helena just brushes it off like it was nothing. She knows it's rude to do that, but she can't shake the feeling of Kokoro's reaction when she tries to confess to her. Why is it so hard for her?

Hours later, the French woman decides it's time for a break. Maybe a bite to eat will make her feel a little better. She goes out and walks down the busy streets, earning some stares and swooning from most people walking by the mature woman. She gives a few people a wave with a smile, earning some squealing girls fainting in the process. She sweat drops and continues walking casually down toward a small shop where she orders her food starts to eat. Eating some food makes her feel a bit better as she looks around, seeing some people eating, chatting and having a good time. Maybe…just maybe she'll confess to Kokoro tonight when she comes over to her house. Yes, that will be the plan when she gets home.

Full of confidence, she finishes her food, pays for it and starts to head out. She starts to walk in the busy streets again. However, she slows down as she sees someone familiar with a guy next to her. She decides to hide and quietly get a bit closer until she sees that it's Eliot with Kokoro. They are just talking and laughing as they are just heading out of a supermarket. Maybe she is just helping him since he is struggling, which is understandable. That's what Helena thinks until Eliot hugs her tenderly with the young geisha returning the embrace. Now, is it a friendly embrace or is it something else other than that? It is then that without thinking, Eliot plants a kiss on Kokoro's forehead. It makes Helena clench her fists. He is being THIS friendly to her? For what? Is Kokoro secretly seeing this guy? If so, that's why they're so giggly with each other. But Helena knows she shouldn't be jumping to conclusions like this, yet…her jealousy is getting her faster. She flees the scene without them noticing, thankfully.

She turns a corner to make sure they aren't following. She sighs in relief and makes her way back to the office for more work. Helena cannot believe what she saw. Either Kokoro is seeing Eliot without telling her or something else. How long have they been talking friendly like this? And why hasn't Kokoro said anything about it? A lot of questions float around in her head like a river as she begins working at her office again. She's going to have some serious talk with her younger sister tonight.

**Later**

After hours of hard work, Helena makes her way towards Kokoro's home. Opening the door, she wipes the sweat from her forehead and kicks off her shoes.

"I'm home…" she calls.

"Oh, welcome home, Onee-sama~!" Kokoro runs toward her older half-sister and hugs her briefly. "Would you like some tea to freshen up? Or would you want to take a bath first? Maybe a bath should keep you cool, right?"

Helena doesn't respond as she turns away.

"Onee-sama?"

"Ah…n-nothing. Actually I just want to lie down for a moment."

"Ah, okay."

As Helena makes her way toward the living room, Kokoro takes a few steps toward her.

"Say, Onee-sama," she says. "I heard that Sempai is going out with someone recently."

"Sempai…you mean Kasumi?"

"Mm-hmm~! Apparently it's with her own half-sister, Ayane-san. Isn't it great~?" Kokoro clasps her hands together happily.

"Y-yeah…totally…" Helena puts a hand on her forehead, not enthusiastic about it.

"You know, I am envious of Kasumi-sempai," Kokoro continues. "I wish I were going out with someone. If were to have a true love, we would go on lots of dates."

Helena sits up a little as her little sister keeps on rambling.

"We would go to amusement parks during some weekends or special occasions, go out to dinner, or maybe watch the stars every now and then! Oh! Maybe we can have tea together and snuggle in bed together too~!"

As Helena keeps on hearing Kokoro's rambling, she is clenching her fists in anger. Now, the geisha didn't say WHO she's in love with, whether it'd be a boy or a girl. But whoever it is, it's getting on Helena's nerves. Kokoro is just being unfair and she doesn't realize it.

"Oh, my!" Kokoro blushes as she puts her hands on her cheeks. "Did I just say snuggle in bed together? I'm such a dirty girl, aren't I~? Ehehe~!" She covers her mouth to stifle her giggles. "Oh, when we do that, maybe we can-"

"Shut up!" Helena shouts.

This startles Kokoro and turns to the blonde. "O-Onee-sama…?"

Helena stands up to face her younger half-sister. "So…who is it that you're in love with? Tell me?"

Kokoro backs away a step. "Onee-sama…what's gotten into you? Why are you…getting so angry all of a sudden?"

Helena ignores those questions as she keeps on talking. "Who are you in love with exactly? Is it Eliot? Is that who it is?"

"W-wait what?" Kokoro says. "Where did that come from all of a sudden?"

"Are you seeing him often?" Helena questions. "I saw you two giggling and talking like you were having a great time."

"N-no…I-I was just helping him out, that's all," Kokoro answers. "I don't even know THAT much about him…"

Helena sighs and turns away. "You're lying. It's obvious you're in love with someone. But…I don't want to know who it is. It'll make me angry."

Kokoro stands there, petrified at her big sister's attitude. She has never seen her this angry before. "Onee-sama…why…why are you jumping to conclusions like this? Why are you so upset…?" Tears start to fall from her eyes as she clenches her fists. "I just…I just don't understand…"

Helena turns and her eyes widen at the sight of her little half-sister about to cry. Regret immediately takes over.

"Onee-sama no baka! You're cruel!" Kokoro shouts as she buries her head in her hands, sobbing.

Helena grits her teeth and shuts her eyes tightly. She shouldn't have lashed out at her like that. What can she do to fix this? There is only…one way to do it. It may be a shock to her, but she has no other options. She slowly takes some steps toward the dark haired girl, gently pulls her arm away and quickly presses her lips against Kokoro's. The geisha's eyes widen in surprise and her arms just fall at her sides. It shocks her so much that she can't move a muscle. Helena pulls away and puts her hands on her little half-sister's shoulders.

"Kokoro…do you love me?" she asks.

"O-of course I do," Kokoro replies. "But…but why did you…"

"I would never do this as a joke," Helena says. "To this day, I have looked at no one else but you. Ever since we reunited, my heart is telling me to love you…more than a sister. You're the only girl I see as a woman."

"Onee-sama…" Kokoro is at a loss for words. Her own older half-sister…has been in love with her all this time?

Helena hugs her tightly, not wanting to let go. "Please…Kokoro…go out with me. I know we're half-sisters, but to me…we're more than that. We're a lot closer than anyone thinks. Don't you realize that?"

"B-but…" Kokoro's body is shaking from trying not to cry again. This is so shocking that it's hard to comprehend.

"It's okay…" Helena whispers. "You don't have to be afraid. But all I'm doing is being honest with my feelings. Now it's up to you to decide." She pulls away to give her a gentle, yet sad smile.

Kokoro just stares at the French woman with tears threatening to spill again. From what she's telling her and the gesture she's giving, she realizes that Helena is right all along. The French woman has loved her for a very long time, but tried to hide her feelings just for the sake of protection and in case she got rejected by her. But Kokoro now knows the truth. Small tears fall from her eyes as she looks up at the French woman.

"You should've…told me this sooner…" Kokoro says softly. She slowly raises both hands to cup Helena's cheeks. "You're so mean…Onee-sama…"

She slowly leans forward, puckering her lips. Helena does the same, leaning the rest of the way until they connect lips. At last, they are sharing their first kiss. And this feeling…the feeling of bliss…immediately takes over. The feeling of each other's soft and moist lips…they cannot get enough of them already. They pull away briefly before diving in for more. Helena sheds tears of joy as she enjoys the make out session. Her dream of being Kokoro's girlfriend has come true. And for Kokoro, she is so happy to be with the only person she is so close with. They kiss and kiss until they pull away to catch their breath, saliva escaping from their bottom lips.

"Onee-sama…" Kokoro breathes.

"Kokoro…my darling, Kokoro…~!"

They lean in to kiss each other again while embracing each other. This night cannot get any better.

**Kokoro's Bedroom**

Another make out session comes and goes until they pull away. It's dark inside the room and they should be in bed, but the two sisters don't care. They gaze into each other's eyes as Helena begins to undress Kokoro, but stops for a moment as she looks up at the shaking Kokoro who has her arms wrapped around her chest.

"I-I'm sorry, Onee-sama…" Kokoro says. "Go ahead…I don't…really mind."

Helena sighs. It's obvious that the young geisha is lying, so she lets go of her clothing. "Listen, if you're not fully ready, I understand. But know that your body isn't the only thing I want. It's your heart as well. Unless you're fully ready, I won't ask for it."

Kokoro just stares at her older half-sister.

"I'll wait, okay?" Helena says. "Until then…" She plants a kiss on the forehead. "Let's have a good night's rest."

"H-Hai…Onee-sama…" the raven haired girl replies softly.

Getting under the covers, the two girlfriends snuggle against one another, earnig a soft giggle from the young geisha. Helena smiles and embraces her.

"This is what you wanted, right?" she says. "When having a true love, they do this, right?"

"Hai," Kokoro replies, softly. "That's exactly what lovers do."

After about a few minutes of silence, snuggling up against one another, the two sisters fall fast asleep. Their journey as lovers has only begun.

A/N: I am trying SO hard to come up with different scenarios for love confessions and stuff. Honestly, it's kinda difficult, but it's all good. Anyways, if anything is messed up, I apologize. I did my very best to make the scenarios make as much sense as possible.

Long and detailed reviews because it took me 2 days to write this!

Have a nice day~!
