Chapter 7   Rin gave a expectant stare at Hisao. “It’s up to you.” Hisao sighed before wracking his brain with ideas. ‘Well, sports at the park isn’t a thing. We just ate so that’s not an option. I don’t think I’ve ever had a day out in the town with Rin. Wait… does this count as a date? Does Rin think of it was one? Hmmm a movie? Bowling? No… bowling wouldn’t work. Shit. A walk! That’s it!’ “How about we just go for a walk?” “Okay.”  With that Hisao set off in the direction of the town’s park. Rin followed after, staying with his pace next to him as she looked at the tops of buildings and the sky. Hisao alternated between checking what was in front of them and looking out of the corner of his eye at Rin. ‘I really can’t get her out of my mind. Even at work I’m thinking about her now. I don’t know what I should do.’ He kept thinking about her as they walked to the park.   The park was rather small, but the city wasn’t exactly big either. There were a few trees, a pathway that curved in seemingly random directions and branched off in some areas. The grass was starting to brown as winter was coming soon, the trees leaves were turning different shades of red and yellow, some were scattered across the ground. “How about we take a break and sit somewhere?” “Okay.” With that Rin took a few steps in front of Hisao and sat down in front of the closest tree. Hisao watched as she sat and stayed still for a minute as he looked at Rin. The sun cast a shadow through the tree that left leaf patterns across Rin’s legs and feet, her eyes were closed as she leaned against the tree in the shade. Hisao caught himself staring and sat down a couple feet from here and decided to close his eyes as well. “There’s a nice breeze today, Rin.” … Only silence was given in response. ‘Maybe I’ve tired her out. She probably only leaves the atelier when she has to. She agreed to come out easy today though. Hmmm.’ As Hisao thought about this he felt the breeze pass over them. ‘Mmmm, that feels nice. I wonder how long we can stay like this?’ “Hisao.” “Yes?” “I want to paint.” Hisao let out a sigh as his question had been answered. “Let’s head back then.” Rin gave a nod as she stood up and waited on Hisao. Hisao got up and stretched, taking in one more breath of the beautiful atmosphere in the park, ‘It was nice while it lasted.’ With that Hisao walked back with Rin to Corner 22.   When they finally arrived at Corner 22 it was already night and the sky had turned black except for the stars and the moon. “It sure got late quick.” “I guess.” “I think I need to go to my place tonight Rin.” “Why?” “Well, I have work tomorrow and I don’t have clothes, in fact, I’m already wearing some of your clothes.” Rin gave a blank expression before replying, “Stay here.” With that she went upstairs and left Hisao staring blankly at the door to the stairwell. “Guess I’ll wait then?”   “Ready, I need you to come get some things.” Hisao gave a puzzled look before shrugging and following Rin upstairs. When he looked into the room, she had thrown 2 pairs of clothes ontop of a suitcase, somehow folded the easel up and pushed it against a chair, and laid out a set of paints. “Rin… what is all this about?” “I need you to take them with us. I have trouble bringing things places.” “Where are we taking them?” “To your house.” Hisao stared back blankly, expecting a reaction to come from Rin. Nothing. Hisao thought about how he could turn her down but all he could think about was the tension from last night. With a final sigh of resignation he packed the suitcase up neatly, found a box that the paints went in and frowned at the easel. ‘Now, how am I going to carry this too?’ “In the closet.” “What about the closet, Rin?” “There’s a strap thing so I can carry something.” Hisao then set everything back down and found a meshlike plastic strap with some sort of hooking mechanism that he assumed was what she was talking about. He brought it back to the art kit that had been packed and, after a few minutes of getting it wrong, attached it to the kit. He let out a sigh, then wiped the sweat off his brow before picking it up and placing it gently around Rin’s shoulder. With that Rin gave a nod, Hisao picked up the rest of the things and gave Rin another look. “Guess we’re off then.” Rin nodded silently before following Hisao down and to his house. The entire trip was filled with silence before they arrived at Hisao’s apartment building. “We’re here, Rin.”   Rin stopped and looked the building up and down with a bored expression. It was 8 stories high and was plain grey blocks outside of the windows. “It’s not really much, but it’s not too expensive either.” “I’m cold.” “Right, let’s go in then.” Hisao led the way, holding the door to let Rin through before following in and passing her so he could show her the way to the elevator. Rin continuously tilted her head in different direction slowly as they walked through the building. There wasn’t much to look at though, there were a few paintings of no consequence, plants, and a reception desk that was empty. Hisao pushed the button and let Rin go in first when the elevator came before pressing for the 4th floor.   Hisao led the way when the doors opened before stopping at room 420 and turning to Rin. “The place is a bit messy, but I guess it’ll do.” Rin gave a blank stare and Hisao remembered the state of the atelier when he first came up to see Rin after the art exhibit had ended. “Never mind.” With that he opened the door and led Rin inside. The room was rather simple, the door opened into a hallway with a half wall after a few feet that showed the kitchen, the half wall also served as counter space, the opposite wall had cabinets lined to the top of the ceiling over more counter space. Further down was a cross section that opened into a living room type area. To the left from there was the bathroom and the opposite direction led to the bedroom. Again Rin stared around taking in her surroundings as she slowly walked through the area and decided to make herself at home on the living room’s couch. “Are you hungry Rin.” “Not really.” “Is there something you want to do?” “Yes.” “What is it?” “That.” Hisao froze. ‘Does she mean what we started last night? Am I thinking too much into this?’ “What do you mean Rin?” Rin didn’t respond this time, instead she got up and walked calmly over to Hisao before pushing her body into his slowly. Hisao naturally leaned back and his back hit the wall in front of his bedroom. Rin just took another step forward as she stood on her toes to Kiss Hisao, with that Hisao wrapped his arms around her waist. “Rin…” “I’ll go slow. Bed.” With that she leaned back and stared at the door to Hisao’s bedroom. Hisao quickly gathered himself and opened the door. “Okay.” He left the door open and stared at Rin as he turned around in front of the bed. “I’m… not really sure what to do here.” Rin stared at him and gave a sly look before saying, “So the problem was in your pants afterall?” Hisao couldn’t reply and only gave an embarrassed look before Rin walked up and pushed him forward with her body onto the bed before sucking on his neck. “You’re awfully aggressive all of a sudden.” Rin replied by biting into Hisao’s neck roughly before licking her tongue over the mark her teeth had left. “You like this sort of thing though. I can tell.” With that she pressed her hips firmly against the bulge that had formed at Hisao’s hips. “Yeah…” “Shirt.” Hisao pulled off his shirt before pulling off Rin’s to notice that she wasn’t wearing a bra. ‘Did she do this too when she moved all that stuff around? Maybe that’s why I couldn’t follow her up. My heart seems to be holding up better this time too.’ As he finished that thought Rin kissed him firmly on the lips and stroked her tongue along the crease between his upper and lower lip. Hisao swallowed as a shiver ran down his spine. ‘She’s amazing. What did I do to deserve something this good?’ “Hisao. You’re thinking too much.” “S... Sorry.” “Is it working ok?” Rin made a gesture with her head to Hisao’s chest. “Yeah…” “Good. Lay all the way on the bed.” Hisao couldn’t do more than listen to Rin through his shock at this point so he obeyed obediently. ‘Since when was she so dominate? Is this a new side to her?’ With that thought he looked down and saw Rin unbuttoning and zipping his pants with her teeth. “It’s hard for me to do yours. You should unbutton mine while you’re at it.” With that she gave a blank expression and stood upright. The light in the room was only slivers that leaked through the blinds on the two windows leaving strips of light across Rin’s body. ‘She’s beautiful. Even more than the last time I saw this part of her. Is this love?’ Shaking his head he unbuttoned hers and took his own pants off. While he did his Rin somehow shimmied out of her own and when Hisao finished she straddled him looking down with a sly smile as he stared at her from hips to breasts to her face. “Are you still okay?” “Yeah.” ‘At this point I might even lie, but I really am fine for now.’ Rin leaned down over Hisao using what little bits of arms she had to hold herself up and started to grind against Hisao. Her breathing became more and more ragged and Hisao could feel the heat from it on his neck. He became more and more excited and placed his hands on her waist and felt her breathing become heavier and he started to strengthen the motion she was already making. “Inside.” “Are you sure?” “If you can make it safe.” Hisao paused for a minute before reaching his arm into the nightstand next to his bed. ‘SUCCESS!’ He pulled out a condom and showed it to Rin. “Okay.” She gave a nod and moved back onto Hisao’s thighs sitting upright as she waited for Hisao to put it on. He started fumbling for a bit before getting it right. “Okay…” With that Rin gave a worried expression before using her thighs to position herself over Hisao’s waist. “You need to hold it still…” Hisao took one hand onto her waist and the other at the base of his area. Rin slowly lowered herself onto Hisao as a pained expression took over her face. “Are you okay?” “Ye...yeah.” She slowly forced her body the rest of the way down and Hisao felt a jolt of electricity run through his body. ‘This feeling is amazing. I. Rin.’ With that his mind turned to blank noise and he placed his hands on Rin’s hips. “I’m going to move.” “Okay.” With that Rin started to push her hips forward and backward. Hisao’s hands strengthened the movement and both of their breathings become ragged again. With ragged breath Hisao was the first to let out, “Rin.” “…Hisao. It’s about to happen.” Rin threw her chest onto Hisao and started to move her hips more wildly, Hisao’s hands adapting to the rhythm and pattern of her motions. Hisao’s mind couldn’t tell whether to focus on the sensation of Rin’s breasts pushed firmly against his body or the feeling of being inside Rin as her hips moved about. Rin started to bite Hisao’s neck as she gave her final thrusts of her hips on him and pushed her body into him as hard as she could. Hisao’s hands tightened on her hips as she pushed into him and he pushed his pelvis into her as they both reached their climax.   They both layed there panting after Rin released her bite on Hisao’s neck. Hisao could feel her panting on his neck, and could still feel the insides of Rin. He layed his head back and let his hands trail down her thighs before falling emptily onto the bed. “That was amazing.” Hisao caught his breath and quickly realized something was wrong. He clutched his chest with one hand as the pain started to spread from his heart throughout his chest. “Rin…” “Hisao?! What’s wrong?” Rin gave Hisao a very worried look for the first time in his life. “The dresser… the bottle…” Rin quickly moved over his body and pushed looked into the dresser. An orange bottle of pills lay in the drawer, she quickly picked them up with her mouth and sat them on Hisao’s chest. He opened the bottle, swallowed a pill and layed still for a few moments as Rin watched. “Hisao..?” “I’m okay now.” He stayed still for a few minutes even after saying that as the pain subsided. ‘Maybe I overdid it… I even made Rin that worried… I have to start taking better care of myself, this is unacceptable.’ “I’m really okay now.” Hisao sat up as said this and gave Rin a weak smile. “I’m sorry.” “It wasn’t your fault. I should know my limits better… Besides, that isn’t something I ever want you to apologize for.” Rin said nothing as she bent forward and kissed Hisao on the cheek. “Are you really okay?” “Yeah.” “Lay back down then, your side.” Hisao gave a quizzical look before doing as she said. Rin took a deep breath before laying down next to him and squirming until she pressed her body as tightly against his as she could. “Rin..?” “You like these things, right?” Hisao gave a small smile as he said, “Yeah, they’re the best.” Rin pushed her body closer before telling Hisao. “Covers. It’s cold.” With that Hisao used his free arm to pull the covers over them. He snuggled into Rin as he felt her breasts push tightly against his back. He gave a smile as he closed his eyes. Rin pushed back with him and closed her eyes as the sun set on the two.
