NOTE: THIS STORY IS SET DURING AND AFTER THE KISS BETWEEN MATSURI AND YUZU IN CHAPTER 9.

Chapter 1: My sister is jealous?

Mei had just bought the ingredients needed for tonight's dinner. Although, it was Yuzu's turn to buy the ingredients and make their dinner, she went ahead and bought it herself because she needed to get out of the house and breathe some fresh air. Besides, Yuzu was late..

Mei had been thinking about a lot of stuff: the student council and Yuzu. Mostly Yuzu. She had told the latter that they should stop fooling around. But she knew in her heart that she didn't really want to 'end' whatever they had going on with them.

At the same time, Yuzu and Matsuri came out of the Karaoke place. Matsuri saw Mei looking in their direction but Yuzu didn't. Matsuri grabs Yuzu by the forearm and tells her, "As I thought," she said, "You're my onee-chan alone". Yuzu was taken by surprise as her lips were attacked by Matsuri's. Matsuri was wearing a flavoured lip balm. It was orange.

While Matsuri had her way with Yuzu, Mei saw everything that was happening. Matsuri looked straight into Mei's eyes as she kissed the heck out of Yuzu, as if saying, "She's mine! Back off!"

After a second or two, Yuzu was broken out of her trance and was blushing furiously. She pushes Matsuri while still keeping ahold of her shoulders, just so that she won't try to sneak another attack. Yuzu was always weak to kisses... It was Mei who made her like that. After so many kissing assaults, she was bound to be addicted to it. Although, she wouldn't complain anytime Mei kissed her.

"What were you thinking?!" Yuzu exclaimed, "What if someone saw us?"

"Well, I told you Yuzu onee-chan," Matsuri said, "I like you,"

"Quit fooling around,"

"But I am not..." Matsuri replied, pretending to look vulnerable,

"In anycase, it's getting a bit late.." Yuzu said, dismissively, "I should get you home."

Mei, on the other hand, was feeling something that she has never felt for anyone before.. She couldn't put her finger around it.. It felt like her heart was pricked with a thousand needles. After seeing what happened, she ignored the look the pink-haired girl gave her and went home.

"I'm home!" Yuzu announced.

Mei was sitting on the sofa watching tv, her back turned to Yuzu. She didn't turn around but said, "Welcome back... The food's on the table,"

"Oh, ummm thanks" Yuzu replied, distractedly. Mei's back was so sexy, she couldn't help but admire it. "What would you umm.. like to have for dinner?"

"I like... whatever you make," Mei replied.

This was new. Mei never praised Yuzu for her cooking.. A simple compliment from Mei makes Yuzu's heart flutter. "Umm, alright," Yuzu said, blushing.

Yuzu made beef curry for dinner. Their mother was away for a work-trip with her colleagues and wouldn't be home for three days. And so, the dinner was practically filled with awkward silence... Since, their mother wasn't there to fill in and make small talk, asking how both of their day had been.

Mei finished first and said her thanks to Yuzu.

"You're welcome Mei," Yuzu said.

"I'll do the dishes after you're finished,"

"Right..Thanks," Yuzu replied awkwardly.

Something was off about Mei and Yuzu noticed it.. Was it something related to the student council again? Mei wouldn't look her in the eye whenever they talked.. It was bugging her like crazy.

While Mei washed the dishes, Yuzu took a long, warm, fuzzy bath. It was so refreshing. So much has happened today. Yuzu was reconciled with her childhood friend Matsuri. Although, it wasn't a very happy reunion as she learned that Matsuri was indirectly doing prostitution and that she... liked her. Yuzu laid her head back on the edge of the tub and sighed a long sigh. It had been a rough day.

When Yuzu entered their room, she saw Mei sitting on the bed reading a book. It was Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Mei eyed Yuzu's dripping wet hair. Yuzu was wearing a dark green tank-top that matched her leafy-green eyes and a pair of shorts which revealed her long, smooth legs.. Yuzu was undeniably, in lack of a better word, hot. She eyed Yuzu's body and was captivated.. She realised she was oggling her, so she cleared her throat and patted the empty space near her. Yuzu didn't seem to realise as she casually walked over to Mei and sat close to her.

"Is there something you'd like to.. talk about?" Yuzu said,

"Yes." Mei said firmly, "What did you do after school today?"

"I..I went out with umm, Harumin. We went to the karaoke place nearby." Yuzu replied, wondering why Mei was asking her, when normally she never cared about where she went after school. Normally, she'd just get told by Mei that it's against the school rules to not come home after school and just let it go. Although, she didn't mind since Mei's finally looking her in the eye and talking to her.

"You went to karaoke with just Taniguchi-san . . .?" Mei inquired in a casual tone,

"Yes, well, while we were at the arcade, we bumped into... Matsuri,"

So that's her name, Matsuri, Mei thought.

"Who's Matsuri?"

"My childhood friend and...schoolmate from middle-school,"

"I see.."

"Umm...Mei, why are you asking me these questions?"

"I...I saw you two kissing today," Mei had on a hurt expression on her face for a millisecond. Had Yuzu blinked, she would've missed it.

Yuzu was wide-eyed. She didn't know what to say, but finally she said, "I, um, she was just... messing around," Yuzu lied, "We haven't seen each other in so long, so..," Yuzu didn't know why she was trying to hide the fact from Mei that Matsuri does indeed like her and has even confessed to her.

There was an awkward silence..

"Me-," Yuzu was cut off by a pair of wet, cotton-soft lips on her own. As the kiss got more heated, she wondered which pair of lips were hers.. Mei caressed Yuzu's cheeks and gave her a deep, hot passionate kiss. Just the thought of Yuzu kissing another girl made her furious.. and jealous.

Finally, she knew what it was that she was feeling. Mei was jealous. The thought of Yuzu being with another person made her feel insecure..

Mei finally broke off the kiss and they both panted.

"hah, hah" Mei, gasped, "Yu-Yuzu, you're mine."

A/N: Thank you for making it this far. This is my very first fanfic in so, please, forgive my mistakes... As we all know, Citrus by Saburo uta is only released bi-monthly in a magazine called Yuri Hime. Two months is a wait too long, for most of us. So, I wrote a fanfiction of what is to happen in chapter 10. You can laugh at my very off-predictions.. or you can help me continue writing the next chapter by reviewing and telling me what I can improve on or suggestions. If there are grammar mistakes that I should know about, please do tell. Or whether they are acting out of character. Really, any kind of criticism is much needed.
