The Tale Continues (Saiunkoku Monogatari Fanfiction: Ryuuki x Shuurei lemon)

Chapter 57: In Someone Else's Room

Breakfast is already prepared and everyone was wondering why Seiran and Jyuusan are not yet awake. They had been waiting for the two and when they do not seem to be coming, they decided to check them.

''I'll check elder brother. It's strange for him to wake up late,'' Ryuuki volunteered.

''I'll go and see Jyuusan,'' then Shuurei agreed. But instead of just the two of them going, Shuuei, Shusui, Kouyuu, and Sera followed too.

''Brother is not in his room. Maybe he went out early to the bath,'' Ryuuki supposed. But as they saw Shuurei blush when she opened the door of Jyuusan's room everyone went to see why. The two are soundly asleep in each other's arms.

Shuuei sighed but he smiled after that. ''I guess I can't do anything now. I noticed that they seemed to have become closer but I did not know he had gotten this far with my sister,'' he said as they sat down on the chairs outside the room.

''Even in his sleep my brother is so possessive,'' Ryuuki thought out loud.

''Now I understand why he had been so protective of Jyuusan yesterday. He glared at all the men who stared at Jyuusan,'' Shuurei added.

''Really? That's a good development then. Seiran should marry soon,'' Sera squealed and Kouyuu nodded.

''I guess he is really going to be your younger brother,'' Shusui teased Shuuei.

''Well at least he is someone I know. At least he is not the type who treats women unjustly,'' Shuuei sighed.

''Don't worry. Seiran is good man. He will make a good husband,'' Shuurei reassured him and Ryuuki nodded. He wondered why Jyuusan gets lumped to men older than her for years just like Jin and Seiran.

'It's warm,' Jyuusan thought as she woke up from her sleep. She felt like she is wrapped in someone's arms but it felt comfortably warm. She opened her eyes when she felt warm breath on her neck. She saw Seiran's face so close to hers and his arms are possessively wrapped around her. He is breathing softly. She looked at his sleeping face which she had never seen. His bangs are covering his face. She brushed his bangs and tucked it neatly behind his ear. 'He looks so handsome and kind when he is asleep. He looks like an angel. But when he is awake he is a bossy devil,' she thought.

That's when she realized that she is in the arms of this person that she always called a monster or a beast. One of his legs are holding hers in place. Then she noticed that one of her arms is wrapped around him too. She quickly let go of him.

She felt a pang of pain in her head as a result of the sake she drunk. This is her first time to feel a hangover. She tried to push Seiran away and unwrap his arms but she couldn't. ''Seiran, Seiran...wake up!'' she complained. She felt like she is going to throw up.

Seiran hugged her tighter instead. ''Pipe down. I want more sleep,'' he said with his eyes still close and burrowed his face at her neck.

''Seiran wake up!'' Jyuusan yelled loudly as his hair tickled her when he nuzzled. The people outside looked at each other and became silent when they heard her.

Seiran opened his eyes and was surprised to see Jyuusan beside him. ''Jyuusan? What are you doing in my room?'' he asked with furrowed brows.

''What the heck?! You are the one who is in my room. Let go of me!'' Jyuusan snapped. Her head is killing her. Seiran realized that Jyuusan is wrapped tightly in his arms and their bodies are entwined. He could feel her body soft and warm against his'. The breasts he nearly touched last night was pressed to his own chest and it felt so soft and squishy. His sleepy consciousness was jerked awaked. He blushed and quickly let go of her. He looked around and realized that he is indeed he is not in his room. He is in Jyuusan's room.

''Why am I here?'' he asked in confusion. He wanted more sleep.

Jyuusan yelled, ''I'm supposed to be the one asking you that.'' Then he recalled their drinking match. He is still sleepy and he groggily got out of her room to go to his'.

''Tsk. She's the one who made me stay then she would yell at me first thing in the morning like I am the villain,'' he grumbled upon getting out of her room. He held his forehead, his head hurts a little. He too had drank a lot since Jyuusan only got drunk when she had already taken too much sake.

''You're blocking the way,'' Jyuusan said and pushed him to the side as she went out of her room. ''Ouch my head really hurts,'' Jyuusan whimpered as she held her forehead too, her fingers gripping her hair.

Shuurei and the others cannot help but laugh at the two. Seiran and Jyuusan only realized that they are being watched when they heard they are being laughed at. ''What are all of you doing here?'' they said in unison which further made the others laugh.

''We're waiting for you,'' Ryuuki informed.

''Please prepare for breakfast. The table is already set,'' Shuurei revealed with a smile.

''What? Is it that late already?'' Seiran said and as he looked at the window, the sun has already risen. Jyuusan run to the bathroom and threw up. Sera, Shusui, and Shuurei quickly followed her. ''That's what you get for drinking much more than you can handle,'' Seiran muttered though he is concerned.

While they are having breakfast, Sera suddenly said, ''Jyuusan-chan you two should get married soon. Or else you would get pregnant unmarried or were you prepared and used a contraceptive?''

''Don't say something like that Sera-chan. Nothing happened. We we're just drunk and fell asleep. Why would I marry that deceitful monster?'' Jyuusan quickly replied.

''You are the one who is deceitful here,'' Seiran butt in. ''Don't talk like I want to marry you either.'' He was hurt at the quick rejection of Jyuusan. He had thought of proposing to her after the night in his mansion but her clear rejection told him he does not have to. He was relieved that he did not propose right after that night, else he would just be turned down and embarrassed.

Shuurei giggled. ''You really looked good together though,'' she mused.

''Right. You should have seen how you looked holding her so possessively elder brother,'' Ryuuki teased.

''I don't know what you're talking about,'' Seiran said and continued to eat. ''And don't talk like I'm the only one here who slept in someone else's room,'' he added and glanced at Ryuuki.

''I slept in Shuurei's room but I slept on the floor not the bed,'' Ryuuki quickly excused himself.

''I fell asleep on Shusui's room but I am sitting on chair,'' Shuuei excused himself too. ''Unlike someone there who slept on the bed holding someone tightly,'' he added and Seiran glared at him.

''It's only normal for me to sleep with Sera,'' Kouyuu said too. They did not let this golden opportunity to tease Seiran since it is quite rare. They always get defeated by dark Seiran. They ate happily bantering at each other as they are finally able to get back at Seiran for always bossing around.
