I own nothing except for the OCs. I am just a fan doing this for the fun and amusement of myself and others.
* This will be the first in a series of one-shots revolving around the budding relationship between Sakura and my OC, Yoshi. Ratings will range from K to T.
Within the Berserk Gym, the girls were training and working out. At the current moment, Sakura and Chinatsu were in the ring sparring with each other. However, things were not going so well for Sakura; her movements were stiff and sluggish. And she seemed to be in pain. Misaki was the first to take notice, followed by Rio and Moe. Chinatsu knew as well, which was why she was hesitant to fight Sakura, given her current state. While no one knew what was wrong, they knew one thing; Sakura was not at the top of her game.
"Okay you two! Break it up! Chinatsu, take a breather! Sakura, come here!" Misaki called out.
"Yes ma'am!" they said before leaving the ring. Sakura was slower getting out than Chinatsu was, as her movements still looked restricted.
But now it was time to get some answers.
"What's up?" Sakura asked.
"I could ask you the same thing." Misaki replied. "You weren't doing so hot out there. Your movements were stiff and sluggish, you looked like you were in pain, and you just seemed really off. What's going on?"
"Eh, I guess I'm just a bit sore and stiff." Sakura replied. She placed both her hands against her lower back and pushed forward, causing her back to snap and pop loudly. She groaned in pain as her pops and snaps echoed through the gym. The girls winced in pain.
"Crimanently! Was that your back?!" Rio asked in disbelief.
"Yeah." Sakura replied in a "duh" manner.
"I don't think I've EVER heard a back crack like that before." Moe said.
"You haven't been wrestling long, my naive teammate." Rio pointed out. "But I know what you meant; that sounded terrible and painful."
"When was the last time your body got some rest?" Misaki asked.
"Uh..." Sakura began, unable to come up with a good answer. "No idea." she finally said. Misaki rolled her eyes.
"Do you know what 'rest and recuperation' is?" she asked, placing her hands on her hips.
"I'm a wrestler; we're supposed to fight through the pain." Sakura replied.
"You're also a human." Misaki bluntly told her. "And as a human, you need rest. Something you'll get plenty of this week. As of now, you are not to train, wrestle, or perform at a concert until you've gotten some proper rest. It's Wednesday now, so come back fresh on Monday." she instructed. "Maybe go to a spa or something."
"What? But Misaki-" Sakura protested, but Misaki shot her a glare.
"No buts. You will do it, or I'll boot you from the team myself." she threatened.
Sakura was about to protest again, but when she looked into Misaki's eyes, she looked dead serious. As much as Sakura wanted to in the past, being forced to leave would seem more like a punishment to her. Especially given how hard she worked to get where she is now. Deciding not to risk it, she went to change into her casual clothes, pack her stuff, and head home. "Bye girls. See you next week." she said.
"Take care. Sorry to do this, but I need you to be at your best. I don't want you out there fighting with your body in such a terrible state. Or performing in such a state. Trust me; I've been there." Misaki said. Sakura nodded her head in understanding and waved goodbye.
When she left the building, Rio turned to Misaki. "Funny hearing you threaten to kick her off the team, when you tried to keep her from quitting wrestling." she said. Misaki grinned.
"I have no intention of actually kicking her out; I just said that to get her to go." she replied. Rio's eyes widened, followed by a short chuckle.
"I wouldn't have thought you would have a mean side." she said.
"Who do you think I got it from?" Misaki asked, her arms crossed and her tone almost smug-like. Rio raised an eyebrow.
"Touche." she said.
* Later, in the park *
Sakura was sitting on a park bench. She felt her back going stiff again, so she locked her fingers and placed both her palms on the back of her head and pushed forward as she arched her back on the back of the bench, creating another series of loud pops and cracks. Sakura groaned in pain once more. "Oh... I guess they were right. Maybe I do need a break." Sakura said out-loud to herself. "Maybe I have been putting my body through too much."
"Not surprising; you work as both a wrestler and a pop idol. I'd imagine you'd need more time to recover." a male voice said from above her.
Sakura got a weird look on her face as she turned around and looked up in the tree. And sure enough, there he was; Yoshi Hirano was up in the tree, perched like a bird and resting his elbows on his knees. Sakura could not help but find the sight amusing, especially the cute smirk on his face.
"What is it with you and being up in trees?" Sakura asked, amused by his fascination with being up in the trees a lot of the time.
"I guess it's just a habit to me." Yoshi replied. "Sometimes, I don't even know why I go up there. I just feel comfy up in trees."
"Eh, fair enough." Sakura said.
Yoshi jumped down to talk to Sakura more properly. "So, what's up?"
"Oh, not much. Misaki made me leave because I was so stiff and sore." Sakura replied.
"Ah, I see." Yoshi replied. "Anything I can do to help?"
"Not unless you know how to give massages." Sakura replied.
"Actually, I can." Yoshi told her. "I've given them to the guys before, and I've helped my sisters out as well."
"Oh. Is that so?" Sakura said, intrigued.
"Aye, ma'am." Yoshi replied with a smile.
"So, can you give me one?" Sakura asked. "I think it would be good for both of us; I'd be getting a good massage, and you could get used to touching me." she pointed out.
Yoshi blushed at the thought of touching her, but he did realize that she had a point. Yoshi was still a bit iffy on touching people in general, let alone Sakura. So this left him a bit nervous. But on the other hand, this would be a good way to get him more used to touching her.
"Well... I suppose so." Yoshi replied.
"Great!" Sakura said. "So, where shall we go for it?"
"At the Animal Squadron's gym, there's a special room in there that we use for giving massages, and we even have a hot tub in there." Yoshi said. Sakura's eyes lit up.
"A hot tub?" she asked in excitement. "I'm very interested now. When shall we go?"
"Whenever you want to." Yoshi told her.
"Well then, in that case..." Sakura said, getting up, groaning as she stood up. "Let me get a swimsuit and some clothes, and I'll meet you at the Animal Squadron Gym."
"Sounds like a plan." Yoshi replied with a smile. Sakura smiled too and hugged Yoshi. Yoshi hugged her back, popping her back in the process and making her yelp out. "Whoops... sorry."
"Rgh... it's fine... helped a bit, actually." she told him before heading home.
"See ya in a bit." Yoshi said, heading home himself.
* Time-Skip *
At the gym, Yoshi was in a special room often reserved for relaxation and meditation. And in the center was a model tree that Yoshi was resting up in. Many thought that the tree was put in because of him and how much he likes to hang out in trees. Yoshi was drawing in a sketchbook, trying to get a picture right. But when he heard the front door opening, and heard Sakura's voice faintly, he got down and went to greet her.
Yoshi came out into the main room and saw Sakura looking around the main room. To her, it was a lot bigger than the one at Berserk. She was in awe of it. Yoshi leaned against the wall, watching her in amusement. He also noticed she was carrying a bag and wearing a white robe. "So, do you like what you see?" he asked her. Sakura lightly gasped as she turned to see him. But upon seeing that it was just Yoshi, she sighed in relief and went over to hug him. Yoshi was quick to hug her back. Sakura was also relieved to see that he was comfortable about hugging her.
"Yes, I do." Sakura told him. "I must say, this room is a lot bigger than the one we have at Berserk."
"Yeah, we're usually put through a lot of rigorous training by Katsu. So we need a lot of room to train and exercise." Yoshi explained. "We even have a separate room for meditation."
"So a training room, a spa room, and a meditation room? Sheesh, you boys get all the fancy stuff, huh?" Sakura questioned. Yoshi chuckled.
"You could say that." he replied. "Anyways, come with me." he added, taking her hand in his and guiding her to the spa room.
The spa room was a fairly wide room. In the center were three tables, and along one wall was a row of lotions, oils, and towels. There was also a rack holding a few robes. Also, along the other walls were small counters to hold candles. In the far right corner was a door that lead into a smaller room, presumably a steam room. Finally, in the far left corner was a hot tub. Just hearing the bubbling water and seeing the steam rise up was filling Sakura with relief and anticipation. She definitely knew now that she was going to need this.
"And THIS is our spa room." Yoshi said. "Here, you can get a massage, take a breather in the steam room, or relax in the hot tub."
"Fa-a-ancy." Sakura said, dragging out the "a" for effect. Yoshi nodded his head. "I think I should let myself get to this point more often." she joked, making Yoshi laugh.
"Don't tempt fate." Yoshi told her. Sakura rolled her eyes in an "I know" manner.
Wasting no time, and wanting to get to the good stuff, she immediately set her bag down and untied the sash of her robe. Yoshi went to get some lotion for his hands. As he applied it on his hands, he turned to see Sakura peeling her robe off, leaving her in a white and red bikini. Yoshi's face was set ablaze, and his eyes went wider than dinner plates. Seeing the outlines of her beautiful curves, her perfectly shaped rump, and her long, sensuous legs sent his hormones up in flames. "Oh, lordy lou... God, give me strength." Yoshi thought. Sakura looked over her shoulder at Yoshi and took notice of his face.
"What's wrong?" she asked. Yoshi opened his mouth to try and speak, but his throat ran completely dry. Just seeing her is enough to make Yoshi lock up. But seeing her in a sexy bikini only made the situation worse. "She had to have done this on purpose..." Yoshi thought.
"So, he does seem nervous about this... but this should help him get used to touching me." Sakura thought.
"So... uh... s-s-shall we begin?" Yoshi asked her. Sakura nodded her head with a smile and went to the center table, laying on her belly. "S-S-Should I begin with your shoulders?" he asked her. Sakura thought it over and decided that it sounded like a good idea. So she sat up and moved her hair to give Yoshi better access before crossing her legs. Yoshi blushed hard again. "Ok, she HAS to have planned this." he thought.
Sakura placed her hands on her lap and looked over her shoulder at Yoshi. "Well, are you going to begin?" Yoshi, once again, could not speak to save his life. But he knew it would be rude to keep her waiting, so he walked over and began to massage her shoulders. Sakura groaned and grunted in pain as Yoshi rubbed her shoulders, getting all the cricks and knots out. But in time, the pain soon shifted into pleasure, and Sakura sighed in delight. Yoshi took notice of her reaction and chuckled to himself. She really DID need this; he noticed she was squirming beneath his touch. And while he did not see it, Sakura was biting down on her lower lip to keep from crying out in pleasure.
"Oh, this feels heavenly..." she moaned out. "And this is only the beginning..."
"Hehe... yeah." Yoshi said. "Just let me know when to stop with your shoulders." he told her.
"Will do." Sakura replied.
Soon, she stopped him and laid down on her belly on the table, resting her head on her crossed arms. Yoshi rubbed his hands before starting phase two. He rubbed her back, creating another series of pops and cracks as he undid the knots in her back. Sakura moaned loudly in pain at first, but it was not long before the pain became pleasure. And along with that, her moans of pain became moans and sighs of pleasure and delight. To Sakura, Yoshi had magic hands. "I think I'll have to hire you as my personal masseur." she joked. Yoshi laughed at that.
"Well, I'll have to give it some thought." he replied. "But I do think we can work something out." he added. Sakura felt her cheeks warm up and flush pink; he was actually thinking of going through with it!
Once he got done with her back, he then went on to her legs. He massaged her right leg first. Sakura raised her leg up, giving him better access to massage her calve. Yoshi had to summon every ounce of willpower to keep his male-teen hormones in line. But feeling her warm, silky smooth skin was not making things any easier. Any other boy in this situation, massaging a girl's luscious legs, would end up caressing and stroking them, completely abandoning their original task. But Yoshi wanted to make himself as different from those other guys as possible; he made sure to respect women. But it was still hard as all get out, especially when he began with her other leg.
Meanwhile, as Yoshi was working his wonders, Sakura was sighing and moaning with content and relief. This was exactly what the doctor ordered. She was feeling better than ever now. And on top of that, she still had the hot tub left.
Finally, the massage was done. Sakura got off her belly and sat up on the table. "So, did you enjoy your massage, milady?" he asked.
"Oh, yes. Very much so. Thank you." Sakura said. Yoshi smiled and bowed to her. Sakura giggled and used her feet to pull Yoshi in close for a hug. In addition to wrapping her arms around his neck, she hugged his waist with her legs. Yoshi blushed at the feeling, but soon relaxed in her hold and hugged her waist.
"I'm glad you enjoyed it." Yoshi said. "Now, ready for the hot tub?"
"Yes sir!" Sakura said enthusiastically, getting off the table and heading over.
Sakura dipped one foot into the hot and bubbling water, getting herself accustomed to the heat. She winced at first, but soon waded into the water and eventually sat down. Sakura sighed in relief as she sank down a bit more into the water. "This feels nice." she said.
"I figured you would enjoy that." Yoshi said, walking over to her with a towel and placing it close by to her. "Now, I'll let you be for a while." he told her, preparing to leave.
"Yoshi? Where ya going?" Sakura asked. Yoshi looked over his shoulder at her.
"Uh... giving you some privacy?" Yoshi replied. "I mean, you do want some, right?"
"Oh, come on now. Surely you can join me." Sakura said, trying to tempt him in with her.
"W-W-Well... we d-d-do have some spare swim trunks in here..." Yoshi stammered nervously.
"So you can join me?" Sakura asked, batting her eyes at him.
At this point, Yoshi was more than convinced that she was doing this on purpose. He was also sure she was going to be the more forward one in the relationship. The thought was rather embarrassing to him. But at the same time, he also felt it was not fair for Sakura that she was going to have to make all the major moves in the relationship. That was something he was going to do his best to work on and give her a better and easier time, as he did not want to be seen as a burden on her.
Not to mention, the thought of being in the hot tub with her was very tempting. He tends to have more fun with her. Not to mention, her bikini was really alluring to him.
So with a defeated sigh, Yoshi went to the drawer and pulled out a pair of red swim trunks and went outside to change. In a few seconds, Yoshi came in, shirtless and wearing the swim trunks. Now it was Sakura's turn to blush. She knew her body had quite an effect on him, but he did not know how much of an effect his body had on her. He may not be very muscular, but he is lean and well-toned. And his soft hair, as well as his jaw scar, added a sexy charm to him.
Yoshi walked over to her and waded into the water. He adapted to the heat a bit quicker than she did. Sakura smiled and moved over to sit close to him before taking his wrist and draping his arm around her shoulder and snuggling up close to her. Yoshi tensed up at the action, but Sakura was prepared for that and began to rub his chest soothingly. His chest tingled at the touch, but it did seem to work; he loosened up and wrapped his other arm around her waist, making her blush in return.
"Sorry for being so tense around you." Yoshi said. "I hope to get better, and to take a bit of a load off of you."
"It's fine. I understand." Sakura said, pecking his cheek. "But, what do you mean by 'take a bit of a load off of me'?" she asked, turning to face him.
"I just don't want you to always be the one to initiate all the moves." Yoshi explained.
"Yoshi, it's fine. Really." Sakura assured him. "I know you're relatively new to this, but I'm willing to wait. I know of your condition, and I'm willing to take this slow. We'll take this one step at a time." she told him.
"...Y-Y-You mean it?" Yoshi questioned, surprised to hear that.
"Of course." Sakura said. "If I'm willing to endure painful submission holds in the ring, surely I can handle waiting for you to get more comfortable with showing affection to me." That made Yoshi smile and he hugged her close to him. Sakura blushed hard, but smiled nonetheless.
"Thank you. I gotta say; you have more patience than the other girls I've met." Yoshi said. "My insecurities would have done run them off by now."
"You're welcome. And don't worry; I have my own set of problems. So I'm in no room to judge." Sakura said.
And after that was said, the two just sat in the water, relaxed and content in each others arms. And when it was time to get out, Sakura changed into her casual clothes and gave Yoshi a hug around the neck and a kiss on the cheek before going to head home. But Yoshi stopped her, inviting her to spend some time with him in the village for a while. Sakura was surprised by that; not because he asked her to stay, but because he did so without stammering as much.
Perhaps that soak in the hot tub was not just good for her. It seemed to be good for him as well; it seemed to have helped him open up to her a bit more. But only time will tell if that truly is the case.
But either way, Sakura was up to the challenge. And so was Yoshi.
* This was the first in a series of one-shots I'll be doing for Sakura and Yoshi. If you have any other suggestions, let me know. But remember; they have to be within K and T ratings.
Anyways, I bid you all farewell for now, and I'll see you around. God bless, and peace out!
