PART 5 - Revert

"If you are choosing between the two people..." Kogami was looking at her in way that made her blood rush into her cheeks, "it's generally advised you choose the second one. Because the fact that you are considering the second one..."

"... means that the first one was lacking in some manner," she finished that statement. "So I've heard. But what's a girl to do if neither one is lacking, really?"

"Guess the girl is in the tight spot, then," he stated, corner of his lips indicated a faint smile. "Which begs the question... am I the first one... or the second one in this all?"

He was too attractive to her, and that wasn't going to change overnight. Even if that night happened to be with Ginoza. Even if there were several nights as well. Gradually, it might change, but in that very moment...

"You are more than an option, if that's what you're wondering," she mumbled, not wanting to label either him or Gino. "You know... for all I did with him, I still can't tell you to stop," she said, biting her lip. "And for all that I feel for him... I still can't commit to him because of you. I am the worst of the worst."

He smiled at her remark. "Well, you won't hear me complaining. For one, I am glad you can't make up your mind yet."

"Don't," she whispered, breathing heavily.

"Don't... what?" he asked, almost naively. With the presence that was impossible to resist, he towered over her, making her feel the full intensity of their mutual attraction towards one another. It was hovering in the air, waiting to be released.

"Don't make it sound like it isn't a big deal," she said, looking away. Guilt and lust didn't mix well.

Another pleased smile showed on Kogami's lips for a moment. His momentarily insecurity was shrugged off by seeing how difficult it was for her.

"Why not, though?" he whispered in her ear, placing his palms against the wall, provoking her. Cornering her... like prey. He wouldn't do anything to make her uncomfortable... but he would do a thing or two to make her aroused. He was exceptionally glad to see her like this once again. That tormented expression of hers... only meant she was under tension. Sexual tension. And a lot of it.

Because of him.

It lifted a gruesome burden off his chest... knowing that it wasn't really over. Not as long as that fire keeps lingering in the both of them. Regardless of what Gino does... as long as that feeling exists... Kogami wasn't about to let her go. Not by a long mile. Not while he still had a chance.

"Because it's hard, finding myself between the two of you. Having to make this... decision," she said, leaning against the wall again, trying to clear her head, pressing her fingers against the cold stone just so she could stop herself from heading towards him. Her body desperately wanted to move... she wanted to feel his firmness, his warmth, that strength of his. She wanted to grab him and not let him go until he filled her up entirely. That kind of lust... was dangerous. It was contagious.

"You are the one who has to make it, though. Neither me nor him will make this any easier, for we are stubborn like that. You know how we are."

"Shinya..."

"Eyes up."

She looked at him, her pupils dilated; her pulse was so quick it made her produce small, incoherent gasps, all while trying to stay calm.

Whatever Gino did to her was severe enough to shake her to the very core... to change the foundation of their relationship... but evidently... it wasn't irreversible yet.
