Crazy Over You

Y

I finish up at the office finally, looking at the clock and seeing it's already 6:30 pm. I put my stuff away and lock up my office and head to the elevator.

I say good night to the security staff and walk out of our building. I turn left to walk home and run right into Ryujin.

"Ryu, what are you doing here?" I say with a smile.

"Well I figured I would meet you at work since I burned dinner again and figured we may as well go out" she says laughing.

"I told you this was going to happen. You better marry a girl who cooks or hire a great cook" laughing walking with her.

"Or you could just continue to live with me and cook for me" she says.

"Well I am not too sure your future wife would like me hanging around or my future husband would like me living with you" I say playfully pushing her.

"You are probably right, so I guess we'll just have to get married then. That will settle it then."

"Yeah I am sure that will happen. I am not exactly your type."

"Maybe my type is changing," she says giving me that killer smile.

I smile back at her and brush that comment off.
"So what do you want for dinner?"

"Well I think I just might be in the mood for some sushi" I say.

"Alright I know a good place that is only is about 10 minutes from here" she says grabbing my hand and walking in the other direction.

We get to the sushi restaurant and have a great relaxing dinner. We head home and I have to say I couldn't be happier that we are. My shoes were definitely not made for walking long distances.

"I am going to grab a shower and then movie time ?" I ask Ryujin.

"Absolutely, since you are showering I am picking" she says with a smile.

I head into my bathroom and quickly jump in the shower. I get out and throw on a tank top, some shorts and a zip up hoodie. Walking out into the living room. I see the Netflix on and no Lisa.

I go over to her room and knock on the door lightly "Ryu, we still on for that movie?"

I hear a woman's voice moaning "Yes Ryujin right there baby" and I instantly recognise it as Natalie's.

I walk away from her door and turn off the tv.
Grabbing a bottle of water and heading to my room. I sit down on my bed and grab my iPad and pull up a Netflix movie.

I sit there trying to concentrate on the movie, but my mind is furious, wondering what happened between when we got home and what Ryujin told me at dinner about settling down.

Maybe Natalie was that woman and I couldn't help, but feel a little hurt.

I fall asleep and wake up around 9:00, it's the weekend and I know Ryujin has a 2 day break in between games. I throw the covers off and grab my hoodie and make my way into the kitchen.
Hearing no sounds I figure that Ryujin and her guest are still asleep.

I start the kettle and put some coffee grounds in the coffee maker for Ryujin and turn it on. I pop down a bagel and wait for it to pop.

I hear Ryujin's bedroom door open and footsteps heading towards the kitchen. "There is coffee brewing for you" I say paying attention to my bagel.

"Oh Yelina you didn't have to do that for me" I hear an annoying voice say as I turn around.

Seeing Natalie in one of Ryujin's shirts as she sits down on the bar stool at the counter. Making a mental note to burn that stool or at least sanitise it well since I don't know if she bothered to put on underwear.
