Fire Meet Gasoline

Ch. 5 - Rapid Oxidation

RAPID OXIDATION: results in burning of a material or even an explosion. It happens rapidly and produces light and noticeable heat.

As I waited my mind wandered all over the place. Am I really about to fuck Kyojuro right now? The flame Hashira?! Who I barely knew just as a co-slayer and superior a little over sixty hours ago?!

I quickly tried to fix myself. I was wearing only a Yukata after being disturbed by my unexpected window visitor. I combed out my hair with my fingers as best as I could, my sweaty skin getting stuck on some of the tangles. I fixed the knot of my Yukata and slid a pair of nice panties underneath just as a treat. I was mentally kicking myself for not asking Rengoku to purchase perfume in town. I wasn't planning on doing this kind of shit in the corps...Obanai wasn't even expected... I could only hope I was the minimum of what he expected.

Three soft knocks came at the door and my heart felt as though it was going to leap out of my chest. Am I really about to do this? We were fine a minute ago, joking around about it...but now it's actually going to happen! What?!

I carefully opened the door just a crack. Rengoku's small smile was on the other side of the door. His eyelids were a bit lower than usual, filled with lust that I was sure he had no idea how to handle.

"Am I allowed in?" He asked, voice low for once. His fingers curled around the door as he peered into my eyes with his, absolutely piercing. "You're allowed to change your mind." I swallowed hard and shook my head, stepping back from the door and allowing him in.

"Welcome back," I mumbled, shyly standing in the center of the room. He took his sandals off as he entered. I felt incredibly awkward, dressed so scantily in front of him despite being in just a robe the night before. He chuckled, looking around the room.

"When were you planning on giving these back?" He asked coyly, walking to my chest where his ascot and vest sat. He picked them up and turned to look at me, who had a guilty look on my face.

"When I was done with them," my face flushed pink. I felt my knees nearly trembling, my feet pointed inward to ensure I'd stay standing. My hands were folded in front of me as I watched Rengoku.

"When you were done with them?" He repeated with a questioning intonation, raising one eyebrow with interest and taking a step closer to me. It made my body quake even harder. It was as if something had changed in Rengoku the minute I invited him to my room.

I nodded slowly, "they helped me...think about you." A sly smile crept upon Rengoku's face, a smile like no other. This smile had purpose. He placed the two pieces back on the chest.

"Did they?" He asked again, this time completely closing the gap between us enough for me to feel the heat of his breath wash over my face. One of his hands came up into my hair, his palm cradling the back of my head as I looked up at him, our noses nearly touching.

"Have you done this before?" I asked him quietly, voice trembling. His eyelids were still heavy as he examined my face all over, red eyes darting. He shook his head.

"Never," he whispered, leaning down toward my neck and using his free hand to hold my waist. I felt his soft lips press against the flesh of my neck. The first time his lips touched me anywhere... I felt my knees begin to buckle.

"Then you really know how to make someone feel..." I whimpered, trying to hold back any sounds. I heard him lowly chuckle. It almost sounded like a growl.

His grip around my waist tightened as he continued eating away at my neck, teeth now nipping the skin. My body fell limp in his arms as soft moans bubbled from my lips. I hadn't received this much caring attention...honestly...ever!
