Authors note: Well it certainly has been a long time in the process. I'm sorry to leave everyone on such a cliffhanger every time, I know the suspense must be killer. I have just finished my second year of uni, and the stress is hitting. In the manga my love for Ryu x Chizuru has really kicked off. This chapter isn't amazing but I hope it does some justice! Special thanks to those who have still been favouriting, following and sending me some wonderful messages. You are all brilliant. Please enjoy the chapter, R & R and send me some more messages cos I love all the support from each and every one of you, and I want to know really, what you want next! :) As said before - I dont own these characters - but here is my latest lovely scenario for them: Enjoy 3

There was something about the way, Chizuru reflected, the way Ryu made her heart flutter.

It was uncontrollable, new, inviting yet it hurt as it banged against her chest longing to be free. Chi was a little hesitant, as she stared around the empty space. The stairs begun in front of her, her childhood friend at the top of the stairs beckoning her into his room. But after all they had done, meant they weren't childhood friends anymore.
Leaning against the wall, Chizuru ran her fingers through her hair and spent a moment or two trying to catch herself. Had she even been thinking straight? Is this all she ever wanted from Ryu? She wanted him beside her, forever. If that was possible. She wanted to feel every inch of him against her, the warmth from his body, the sound of his voice against her ear; her fingers slid to her lips nonchalantly. She wanted his breath on her skin, and his lips on her all the time. She stroked her own cheeks and closed her eyes. Ryu was always going to be more than a friend to her. The tension they had built, the heat between them was so much more than she could have ever imagined. She didn't on love him, but she lusted after him. Chizuru felt her mind start to flurry with endless images. Why was she thinking of their friendship now when they had come so far? Now she could only question whether this was the temptation she had longed for, and searched for in him. If these were all the things you were supposed to do in love, or if there was more that she was missing. She as finally looking at Ryu as a man, and a man who she wanted to seduce and conquer. She wanted to give every ounce of love to him, and she wanted to be his forever.

Now - there he was - in his room. In their home, alone. At the top of the stairs she could only imagine what was behind that door. She had teased and giggled and played around with him. But this was the time for their relationship to grow. She dropped her bag on the floor and crept to the top of the stairs. The door of his room was slightly ajar, she could hear him rooting through his closet.
'He won't need that kit' she thought to himself, pushing the door open.

Chizuru decided acting normal was the best step, she would slowly pounce on him. As if they needed anymore tension than they already had. It would be interesting to see Ryu make the first move; he shifted around from his closet to see Chi get comfy on his bed. Before when she had lay there, it meant nothing. But now... Ryu found a new beauty in Chizuru. It had always been there and he had always admired her, but now she was in reach. He felt her passion when she kissed him, her felt her nerves and her courage break through at the same time. Whenever she held him or her fingers lingered for too long against his, or the way her face still blushes the deepest shade of red when she does something new; that was a Chizuru he had fallen in love with. And the love of his life, lay on his bed. Her skirt draped provocatively and the top two buttons undone on her shirt; her hair still ruffled from the morning encounters and her cheeks with the slight tinge of red that made him wonder if she was up to something.
Ryu folded his kit away and stretched and he rose from the closet, his shirt lifting slightly to expose his stomach, much to Chi's pleasure. He decided to push her a little further.

'So' he said with his lip curling in to a smile. 'Where's my breakfast?'
Chizuru sat up with a fake concern on her face. 'Same place as mine - in the fridge waiting for you to cook it.'
Ryu giggled. 'You want to work here eventually don't you?' He moved quickly towards the bed and pushed Chizuru down on it. He wrapped his legs through hers and his chest was resting centimetres above hers, she couldn't react as quickly as she hoped.
It had taken Chizuru by surprise. He legs had nudged her skirt higher up her thighs, and she felt the material of his trousers graze against her. His hands were wrapped around her wrists so she couldn't move them from above her head, her own shirt had risen to expose her navel which Ryu's eyes were lingering on. This alone made her blood rush and her cheeks burn, let alone the temptation of having his face so close. His deep eyes caught her every reaction, his tongue licked his lips as he edged closer. Chizuru slowly closed her eyes to meet what she thought would be a kiss..

But, Ryu's head snapped down to kiss her stomach. Her skin was so smooth and soft. He ran his tongue downwards to the hem of her skirt to see what reaction he could get from her. Chi responded to him by squirming, her eyes were still shut tightly as shock and embarrassment flooded her. Her skin was on fire and Ryu was putting it out. He kissed the small space between shirt and skirt. She felt him mumble something against her, but she couldn't quite make it out.

'Not enough' he growled as he used his teeth to pull at the bottom button of her uniform. It came undone easier than he thought.
'What are you doing?' Chi moaned glimpsing down at him for just her second. She regretted it. She loved Ryu animal instinct too much and secretly she didn't want to question his motifs.
'I wanna hear you moan for me.' Ryu whispered against her.
Chi gritted her teeth as he pulled another button away, surely he was just testing her - she thought to herself. He popped another two buttons making her gasp. Again he ran his tongue along her body, making her go rigid and shiver slightly. His touch was alluring. She wanted more.
'Not enough' he urged again, wondering how far he could push her before she would moan his name. His Chizuru would finally call him name and beg him for something more. He longed to hear her.

He popped the final button and a groan left her lips as Chizuru lay on his bed in a gorgeous state. Her lips were marked from biting them, suppressing the moans she wanted to release. But she wanted to be pushed, she liked him in charge; she could feel herself giving in to him and falling for him over and over again. He pulled off her shirt and lay her back down. Her bra was plain and simple for school, but it was also easy. He nudged slightly at it; she could feel his warm breath across the top of her breasts. His teeth drew the straps off her shoulders and he bit her. Softly against the neck, leaving a slight graze. Chi moaned into his hair, his hands still tightly holding her wrists as she tried to fight them. I want to touch him.
He kissed the top of her chest and licked the grooves he could reach; holding her steady with one hand, he slid his hand down her back and undid her bra and pulled it aside.

Chi was so cute when she was embarrassed.
He could feel how much she wanted him, the heat against his legs were begging him. Her moans and her whimpers. And even the gasps of breaths craved him, invited him and filled him with a new desire.
Their friendship had blossomed - there was nothing to fear. This was the step he had waited for and wanted. He wanted to protect her and cherish her but at the same time, Ryu wanted to leave more than a mark on Chi. He wanted her to belong to him.
His mouth hovered over her nipple. He blew slightly and watched it harden.
'Chizuru' He moaned, moving up to her eyes to meet his.
She opened them slightly, a wicked smile had formed on his face. Who was this new Ryu?

Whoever he was - she liked him.
She liked him a lot.

He whispered against her; a request which made her ache all over, with a fear which satisfied her.

'Let's play a game'.

Chizuru moaned, how blind could she bad? What a man she'd had all this time in Ryu.
