A/N: Sorry, I forgot that I posted something in FFN. It slipped my mind as I was bombarded with work, work, and work ;(
Since I'm not really supposed to post anything yet (but couldn't help myself when I was so tired with work already haha ;), this chapter/story won't be followed by anything for another couple of weeks or so.
Each Excapade is a stand-alone story unless I put the word "sequel" at the A/N of the first chapter of the story. And, there are circumstances that differentiate Excapade A from B.
And as I've said last time, don't take the story seriously and just have fun reading, okay? ;)
Chapter 2
Sachiko drove the car quietly, just as Yumi kept her silence at the passenger's seat. Both were lost in their own little world, mostly thinking about each other. Though they had a disagreement, unconsciously, the thought of being separated from each other when they had the chance to be together was not acceptable.
Once back in their house, they both made their way to the door in silence. And once inside and was safe from anyone's eyes, if anyone could see them anyway with their high fence and with the security around, they just stood at the door, facing each other, still in silence.
"So, are you giving up now?" Sachiko asked coldly, breaking the long silence.
"No. Are you?" Yumi responded in equally cold voice.
They eyed each other with stubborn look, not backing out from each other's gaze. Both wanted to make the other gave up. Why they were being stubborn, they wouldn't admit to each other yet. For Sachiko, she wasn't used to giving up when challenged. For Yumi, it was time to stand for something, even if only for once in a while.
The staring contest lasted for a couple of minutes, before new reaction adorned the faces of the two. Sachiko sighed just as Yumi shook her head, before their faces slowly broke into a grin. It was so silly to fight, they thought in unison. It wouldn't do them any good if they would continue to fight. If Sachiko needed to leave, then they had to make the best of their time instead of wasting it.
"You are stubborn, Yumi," Sachiko accused even as her eyes gleamed, not with anger but of something else.
"No. You are, Sachiko," Yumi answered as she moved closer to Sachiko until their bodies fitted each other.
"Are you giving up now?" Sachiko asked as she leaned her body closer to Yumi.
"Well, how about you?" Yumi asked in return, bringing her lips closer to Sachiko's but didn't touch it.
The two engaged into another staring contest, before their lips met hungrily, almost bruising, just as their hands hurriedly took off each other's clothes. It was as if they were in a race with time, though in a way, they were with Sachiko having to leave soon. They had wasted precious times already so they worked on each other like they had never done before. As they make their way towards their bedroom, they bumped here and there, just as one by one their clothes were discarded along the way. When they reached their bed, they were both as bared as they were born, and their hands were freer to roam each other's body.
---o---
"Wait," Youko called when Sei was about to ring the doorbell to Sachiko and Yumi's house.
"What? Don't tell me you changed your mind?" Sei asked with raised brows.
"The door is open," Youko explained as she pushed the door. In the end, after Sachiko and Yumi left their place, they couldn't help but worry so to have everyone at eased, she had let Sei dragged her to follow the other couple. Though she wasn't thinking about Sachiko and Yumi during the trip as she feared for her own life at the drive towards here.
Sei grinned inwardly when Youko scowled at her. No doubt the latter was still pissed about what she had done. To prevent an impending lecture, she pulled Youko inside the house.
"You're right. They probably fought right after they arrived, forgetting to close the door. It's a good thing that they have security here," Sei said as they stepped inside. Then she frowned at seeing Yumi's coat at the floor near the front door.
"What is this thing doing here?"
Youko had no answer to that as they walked further inside the house. When they reached the living room, another coat was on the floor.
"This is Sachiko's."
Frowning, Youko picked it up and started to walk again, only to be stopped by Sei.
"What?"
Sei pointed near the foot of the stairs where a shirt and pieces of broken figurine were scattered.
Their hearts skipped a beat.
"Do you think something happened?" Youko asked worriedly as she thought over the things they knew. The door wasn't locked. And then pieces of broken figurine lay on the floor. There was no way Sachiko or Yumi would just leave it like that unless…wait…there were guards at the gate. Surely they would have known if someone trespassed in this house.
"Maybe they started throwing things at each other when they arrived," Sei joked, trying to cover her own worry and in doing so, earned an angry glare from Youko. She raised her hand in surrender and then reached for Youko's hand again. They just couldn't help but feel worry about the arguing couple.
Holding on to each other and hearts thumping in their chests, Youko and Sei climbed the stairs. Along the way, another shirt was on the handrail. They both looked at each other in puzzlement and anxiousness, before they proceeded quietly, only to stop dead when they reached the top of the stairs.
There at the floor, a lacy bra lay, and not too far away, towards Sachiko and Yumi's bedroom, lay another one. They looked at each other with wide eyes, glanced at the slightly opened door to the bedroom where they could hear…
Youko covered her mouth to stifle her giggles and put the other into Sei's when the latter snickered without bothering to cover the sound. All their worries had completely disappeared and were replaced by amusement. If only they weren't so worried earlier, then they would have guessed already what was truly happening with the couple everyone was worried about.
Slowly, quietly, the two retraced their steps, both trying hard not to laugh out loud. A few steps before they reached the bottom of the stairs, a strangled scream startled them, making them missed a step with surprised. In split seconds, they found themselves on the floor, hurting yet laughing at the same time.
"I've never heard her scream before," Sei managed to say amidst the hurt in her bottom and hips and of her laughter.
"Neither had I," Youko said as she held her hurting arm. "Let's get out of her. She will skin us alive if she finds out that we're here."
---o---
"Yumi, did you hear something?" Sachiko asked as she caught her breath.
"Yes. It seems your screams are getting louder with each…" Yumi trailed off and kissed Sachiko's lips teasingly, before she dropped beside the latter and hugged her tight.
"Hmp," Sachiko pouted and dismissed her question. It must be her imaginations.
"So, one week and two days?" Yumi asked, turning to face Sachiko.
"How about three weeks and two days?"
Yumi pouted.
"One week and five days."
"That's a very short time, Yumi."
"Two weeks and no more," Yumi said with finality, turning her eyes away from Sachiko.
"Yumi…"
Sachiko gazed at the side of her lover's face. She could see the seriousness in Yumi's face. She sighed. She didn't want to fight with her again. It was really hard for the both of them whenever they were fighting.
"Yumi."
"Yes?" Yumi asked, not looking at Sachiko but rather of the ceiling, as if it was more interesting than the person beside here.
"Yumi, look at me."
Sachiko's voice was firmer this time. Despite herself, Yumi turned to face Sachiko. Old habits die hard. Whenever Sachiko used stern voice, she couldn't help but be like when they were younger, the little sister who followed her big sister's words. She was pleasantly surprised when she turned and was kissed passionately in the lips.
"Sa…chi…ko…" Yumi breathed.
"Two weeks and five days and that's final," Sachiko said when she caught her breath after that passionate kiss.
"N-no."
Smiling mischievously, Sachiko leaned over Yumi and briefly kissed her. Her smile widened when Yumi's lips followed hers.
"That's not fair, Sachiko!" Yumi complained with a cute pout. Sachiko was using underhand tactic.
"I beg to disagree. I seem to remember someone who used the same thing to me when she didn't want me to attend a conference," Sachiko said, her brows raised, challenging Yumi to contradict her words.
"Two weeks and two days then," Yumi said with a pout. When Sachiko remained quiet, she sighed. "Alright. Two weeks and four days but I want something."
Sachiko's eyes twinkled.
"Agreed. I know just the right thing to give you."
"Really?" Yumi asked with a smile, waiting for Sachiko to say something more. Her eyes widened, however, when she finally saw the mischief in her lover's eyes. "No way…"
"I think you'd take that back later, love," Sachiko teased, draping her hand on Yumi's back and caressed its softness.
"Aren't we going back to Youko-sama and Sei-sama's pl…ooh…" Yumi's question turned into a delicious moan as Sachiko's other hand touched a sensitive part of her body.
"I don't think your body agrees with you, love," Sachiko whispered huskily as she watched in Yumi's body fascination. Just like she loved to do, she showered Yumi with light kisses that ended in one of the peaks eagerly waiting for her attention.
"They…can…wait…then…" Yumi moaned as she held Sachiko in place.
---o---
"What on earth happened to you?" Eriko asked in surprised at seeing Sei's walk and Youko's arms.
The others eyed the two in surprised, too, which turned into a frown when Sei started laughing hysterically while Youko merely giggled.
"You don't have to ask," Youko said.
"Don't tell me Sachiko had you two chased by her security?" Eriko said sarcastically, which only made Youko and Sei laughed all the more.
"No matter what, I don't believe Sachiko would do that unless we took Yumi-chan away from her," Youko said as she wiped the tears that formed in her eyes.
"Then explain properly," Eriko growled. There was no way she would let Sei and Youko away with it. It seemed so interesting.
---o---
"Oh. Hi there. We thought you're not coming back," Sei greeted happily when she opened the door and found Yumi and Sachiko standing outside. She smirked when she saw the two's hands joined together.
"I see you've made up. Good. Come in."
As they settled back inside Youko and Sei's house hours later after they left, Yumi eyed the others uncomfortably. There was something in their eyes, their smiles, their actions that was making her feel uneasy. What was it?
Sachiko noticed the others exchanging looks and smiles plus their gestures. Frowning, she turned her gaze to Youko who appeared nonchalant, and to Sei who wasn't stopping from snickering. Though Sei was cracking jokes with Yoshino, she didn't believe that Sei's merriment was on those jokes but rather on another…
Sachiko's eyes widened. The thud she heard at their house earlier…she blushed and turned to Yumi who must have realized it too because her face was equally red. When the others noticed them blushing, they broke into laughter.
"It's not funny," Yumi protested.
"What is not funny, Yumi-chan?" Sei teased, making the two blushed all the more.
"Stop laughing!"
"Yumi-chan, you and Sachiko really never fail to amuse me. That's why I like the two of you the best," Sei continued, holding her stomach as she laughed really hard.
Both Sachiko and Yumi glared at the others at the room, particularly to Sei.
"Don't worry. Youko and I never told them the details, about how one step at a time…" Sei trailed on purpose and ran away just as both Sachiko and Yumi moved towards her.
"Sei-sama!!!"
"Aahhh!!!"

A/N: See a pattern in the stories for Excapade B? If you didn't, it's okay. There's no need to confuse yourself and ask me about it because…sigh.
And remember when I asked Mother Nature to blow the wind a bit stronger? That night, my request was granted in the form of rain ;) And since then, we are experiencing periodic rains so I'm happy because the temperature is cooler. Having rains during the summer time is probably another manifestation of climate change.
Well, bye again. I'm off for a week-long vacation (hopefully I can really have a vacation and that I won't have a hard time with the travel ;)
I'm going to the farm and the beach! And I'll see my family after one year and 4 months! And to see friends after who-knows-how-many-years-already (I feel like an old person haha)! The last time I was home, it was due to something sad. Now, I'm all for fun and rest and recovery! Hmm…and maybe, just maybe, be able to read/write stories, who knows. Nah, I'll just edit the stories I mentioned at the end of my previous Excapade ;)
Until next time! ;)
Just thought of something. Is today April fool's day? Hmm…
