High & Low ~The story of SWORD~

Act 28: 'Hentai' inner voice!

It was dark. Deep night had fallen. There were many clear stars, the fast-warming moon would be seen till late. Though his eyes were open now; his heart was pounding, mind empty. He could not think of why. It's as if a hypodermic of adrenaline emptied into his carotid. He strained into the utter darkness and his breathing rate began to steady. Without a doubt he knew he slept too long. After all he was exhausted and need all the sleep of the world. In the blackness he moved slowly enough to make no sound, fast enough to reach the covers.

In his own surprise, he was not sleeping alone. His memory was still grey and far, but he slowly put the puzzle together. Expect of his angry speech at the Kokuhakudou Station, that was tantamount to a declaration of war with Kuryu Group. That he was tortured and almost died. That they finally saved SWORD, the casino plan was destroyed and Kuryu brought down. If all that was not enough, he ended up sleeping with Kasumi. He did not regret, nevertheless.

After so many years of sleeping alone every action was automatic, reflexive, efficient. Waking up was no longer unpleasant. True be told, it was weird sleeping next to another human being. Specially one he was very font off. First aware of the coolness of the air and it's loamy fragrance, while he rolled out of the covers. He made a small pause only stare at the girl that was still sleeping next to him. He leaned in and kissed her forehead, softly covering her up.

Pain throbbed so violently around his skull that he wondered why it didn't just crack open. Cobra leaned against the wall trying to balance. Today would be on of those days his body would be sore after all the beaten he was through. He could not complain though. Pain was regular factor in his life. He hated it. After all who would love pain. He decided to men up and get dressed. Few steps away from his bed, he stood in front of his dresser. After coming cross a clean pair of jeans and a clean black shirt. He got dressed and walked outside.

He lit up a cigarette and checked his phone. It was already 3 in the morning. He made a puffed and exhaled the smoke sitting on the bench. The cold breeze against his body made him shake a bit. His mind started to recalled what had happened hours ago. Indeed he enjoyed every minute with Kasumi. Yet, he was not sure about Kasumi. Because his memory rang the day back in time, as Kasumi was offended by him kissing her. He remembered her saying it was her first kiss. Probably, this was also her first time. He smoke and gazed at the open sky above him, tolerating with himself.

Inside the room, Kasumi awoke without warning, eyes flung so wide each iris was a perfect orb of dark chocolate. After a second or two her head turned like some Halloween dummy, mouth slackened, "I know what happened..." she mumbled. She sat up on the bed as the covers fall down against the bed, revealing her body. She looked at her nude frame and blushed. Her heart was pouncing in a fast pace, ready to run away from her chest. She noticed that Cobra was not sleeping any longer. She gathered up herself and stood up. She stumbled in the darkness finding her long shirt and her panties. She got dressed and picked up Cobras Jacket and wore it. Next she stepped outside.

She crossed her arms around her chest and gazed at the man seating outside. Her cheeks blushed as she stared at his flawless form. Indeed it was her first time. And she was never the type that had any experience if it came to sexual intercourse. Normally, she would make such a big mess. Complain here and there, acting like she did when Cobra kissed her back then. Honestly now, she did not care. If it was her first time or her last, the point was that she slept with Cobra. She spent a night with that wild Yankee, that had won her heart. Her 'pervert inner voice' kept cheering happily noting that attractive male was now hers. Only to make her blush more and filled totally 'Hentai'. She never knew her inner self was a total pervert.

"How long are you going to stare me, Baka?" Cobra quizzed breaking her inner thoughts. He gazed at her upon his shoulder and tapped his hand against the bench gesturing her to go sit with him.
