I will not pay for your cleaning bill. ************************************************************************ AFTER HOURS ************************************************************************ It was past closing time at Ukyou's Ryokan and Ukyou finished washing up the plates. ALMOST finished washing up since Blade was still eating. Ukyou shook her head slightly. Blade, always coming around to mooch a meal, and right at closing time to. But she couldn't resist that lost puppy look he took on when she said that he would have to pay this time. Ukyou smiled softly as she watched Blade eat. No, she could never refuse to give him something as small as a meal. Ever since Ranma got married he had always stood by her side and was always willing to lend a hand around the Ryokan. And... "Is something wrong Ukyou?" Blade asked. "Hmm??" Ukyou blinked as she was brought out of her thinking by Blade's query. "Are you all right?" he repeated. "You were just staring off into space." Ukyou blushed as she realized that she had been caught. The blush quickly changed to an angry red. "Blade! Since I was so nice as to cook for you, AFTER HOURS I must add. You'll have no problem helping me clean up?" "Uh..Sure!" Blade looked slightly confused and came around the counter. "Good!" Ukyou huffed "Take this to the storeroom. And this! And this! and finally this!" Ukyou piled Blade's arms high with dishes, pans, spatulas and finally a pot of sauce. Blade buckled somewhat under the load. "Ooof! If your going to make me carry this much. At least let me change into (DEEP MANLY VOICE) MECHA BLADE!!" "Don't you dare!" Ukyou adomished. "A bull in a china shop is bad enough. But a mecha bull in my Ryokan? Only if you pay the cleanup bill!" "Do'we!" Blade waddled off as quickly as possible to the storeroom. Ukyou sighed and washed Blade's plate and flipped his stool onto the counter. Blade no baka. "Neh, Ukyou?" Blade called from the storeroom. "What now?" Ukyou sighed. "Do you want the sauce on the top shelf?" Ukyou ran over to the storeroom "No Blade! I can't reach it up there!" Ukyou saw Blade standing on his toes with arm stretched out and the pot of sauce balanced on his fingertips as he tried to edge the pot onto the shelf. his other arm was filled with cooking pans. "Not up here?" Blade said. He gripped the pot with his fingers and started to bring it down but the pot tipped forwards and the sauce came spilling out along with the lid which landed right on Blade's head. "Ow!" Blade yelped as the pot quickly followed and bounced off his head. "Oh Blade!" Ukyou put her face in her hands "Your a mess. Come over here!" Ukyou grabbed his arm and dragged him over to the sink. She wet a towel and wiped his face. "Ulpphh." Blade sputtered as Ukyou wiped the sauce off his face. "I can do this." "You'd find someway to destroy half the Ryokan in doing so. "Ukyou's lips quirked to show she was joking. Blade sighed and let her finish. "Take off your shirt." Ukyou said. "You've got sauce down your front, and I'll have to wash the shirt." Blade took off his shirt and Ukyou wiped his chest. As Ukyou was wiping off his chest, she noticed the wide scars that were on it. Some were small nicks that he had gained in his numerous fights. But one in particular reached all the way around his midsection. A thick scar that showed evidence of a horrible wound. Blade got this when Epsilon..Ukyou bit her lip. When Epsilon blew Blade in half. Her thumb dropped down and lightly traced it. "Umm. Ukyou?" Blade asked. But Ukyou wasn't listening. She had stopped wiping him off and was staring at the scar. Torn in half. Ukyou's eyes misted and she visualized him lying in a pool of blood and gore. Blade, Baka Blade. That was the result of his machoness. Taking on Epsilon and getting blown to bits. Ukyou's hands gripped Blade's midsection, fingers tracing that scar. Blade, who had comforted her when Ranma and Akane got married. Blade who was always there. He had left her then. "Ukyou?" Blade asked. Ukyou looked up and Blade was stunned when he saw tears running down her cheeks. "Why Blade?" Ukyou said softly. 'Why did you leave me?" "I..Uhh.. I never ment." Blade found himself at a loss for words. "Blade?" Ukyou whispered. "Hmm?" "Promise me, That you'll never leave me like that again.' "I promise." Blade smiled. "Getting killed can change a person. I won't be doing that again." "Death does change people." Ukyou murmured. Ukyou pushed herself up by the toes and gently kissed Blade. Blade was shocked and let Ukyou kiss him without resistance. He tasted the salt of her tears as her lips lightly roamed over his. Her lips pressed lightly on one spot then moved to another. Soon she moved to peck at his cheek and neck. "Uhh..Ukyou?" Blade was starting to get rather....awkward. And shifted his stance slightly so that Ukyou wouldn't brush up against the bulge in his pants. 'Please." Ukyou placed a finger against his lips. "Don't say anything. Just, follow me." Ukyou took Blade's hand and led him to the stairs going up. "Turn off the light." she said and Blade's hand flopped out and hit the switch, plunging the bottom floor into darkness. Ukyou led Blade upstairs and into her room. Blade stood there numbly as Ukyou stood with her back to him. She was moving her hands in front of her. "Uh..Ukyou?" Blade suddenly stopped short as Ukyou turned around. Ukyou had undone the front of her shirt and her bra. Blade's eyes widened as he saw right there,Ukyou's breast. Ukyou's eyes were half closed and her face was flushed. Blade suddenly felt a rising pressure and his vision went red. "Urrghh. Ukyou!!" "Oh No!" Ukyou suddenly leapt forwards and pinched Blade's nose shut. Blade's head swelled up and his eyes bugged out as the blood that was going to head out his nose searched in vain for another outlet. 'Your not going to faint on me!" Ukyou said firmly as Blade managed to swallow and the blood went back down to it's proper places in Blade's veins. Before Blade could say anything, Ukyou pushed him against the door and let her arms fall to her sides, letting her shirt fall to the floor. "Blade? Am I....dirty?" Blade felt Ukyou trembling against him. "Ne..Never!" Blade said firmly "You could never be that!" Ukyou raised her head and her eyes were filled with joy and tears "Arigato." she said and wrapped her arms around Blade's neck. Bringing herself up and kissing him with passion. Blade realized that he had a beautiful woman in his arms. A woman that loved him, And he loved her. Blade wrapped his arms around her and kissed her back. It was rough at first. But soon their lips closed in one continuous kiss, their tongues lightly stroked each other as their hands pressed into each other's bodies. They both broke the kiss and Ukyou's hands moved downwards and unbuckled Blade's belt. Unzipping his pants, she pushed them down, he eyes widening at the bulge in his underwear. Blade returned the favor and undid the knot that was Ukyou's belt. He gently pushed down her pants and marveled at her long, smooth legs. He caught a whiff of her scent and saw her panties were lightly stained with excitement. Ukyou led him over to her futon, and with hands that trembled slightly, pulled down his underwear. Blade's penis sprung upright and Ukyou slid her hand up his leg and grasped him. Blade choked a bit as he stiffened even more from her touch. Ukyou lightly traced the large vein and stroked the tip. Her head was against his chest and he could hear her deep breathing. Ukyou released him and he felt something like a weight drop off his shoulders. He reached towards her to return the favor, but she gently stopped his hands. "Let me do this, for you." she whispered and sat him down on the futon. She stepped back and hooked her thumbs into her panties and slowly brought them down. Blade's breath caught in his chest as the curly brown pubic hairs came into view. He could just see the opening to her vagina under the tangle and saw a dampness around it. Ukyou kneeled before him and pressed against him. Her breasts flattened against his chest and he felt her hard nipples poking into him. He had little time to think on this as she took his hand and guided it between her legs. Blade felt a warm,wet softness as his fingers came into contact with her vagina. Ukyou moaned as she pressed his fingers against her opening and lightly moved them against her. Blade felt a small bump and rubbed his pointer against it. Ukyou suddenly gave a small jump and gasped and Blade felt a wash of dampness on his hand. He realized that Ukyou had just orgasmed. "Not like this." Ukyou gasped. Her face was all red and sweat had started to roll down her body. She leaned Blade against the wall and propped him up with some pillows. "Shouldn't we?" Blade was rather unfamiliar with sex and thought that she should lie down on the futon." "I want." Ukyou looked him straight in the eyes. "To look you in the eyes when it happens." Ukyou grasped Blade's penis and lightly stroked it. Blade's breath came in ragged gasps as Ukyou threw her leg over his and positioned herself over him. Both their eyes met as Ukyou guided Blade into her. Blade felt a sensation that was both warm,wet, and tight as she closed around his length. Ukyou grabbed his hands and breathed deeply as Blade came into contact with her hymen. Blade gave a small nod and Ukyou slid the rest of the way down. "Ahhh!" Ukyou cried and Blade looked down to see blood ooze out of her. "U..Ukyou!" Blade never thought it would be like this. "It...Its ok." Ukyou blinked back tears "It's ok." Ukyou hugged Blade to herself. When the pain subsided somewhat, she took a deep breath and raised herself up. A mixture of pleasure and pain washed up from her groin as she felt Blade's penis slide almost the way out. Steeling herself, she slid back down and the pain faded as a wonderful undescribable feeling was felt. She looked at Blade and his face was screwed up as he clung to her hips. She glanced back and saw his toes were curled up. "Watch me Blade-chan." she said, and Blade opened his eyes in time to see her slide back up and down. Blade was speechless and clung to her as their bodies thrusted against each other. They went on like that for a few minutes until Ukyou pulled Blade backwards by the shoulders so that she was under him. Blade pulled himself out and watched as he slowly slid back into her. He increased the pace as he felt a tightening in his gut that he knew signaled that he was about to come. "Blade-chan,Blade-chan." Ukyou said over and over as she wrapped her legs around his waist. All pain was gone and she was only aware of herself, Blade, and the sensation between her legs. "Uhh..Ukyou!" Blade felt the knot in his gut tighten unbearably. "It's ok!" Ukyou squealed, and dug her fingers into his back. Blade went over the edge and came into her. Ukyou's eyes were screwed shut and her mouth was wide open as she felt Blade's semen enter her, tracing burning paths along her inner walls. Blade fell against Ukyou, she felt burning hot and Ukyou felt like she was sinking down into a lake of warm honey. As she slipped beneath the surface. Her eyes closed and she fell asleep with Blade on top of her. Next morning, Blade awoke to find himself alone in bed. Fresh sheets covered him and he got up a bit dazed at all that had happened last night. "Ukyou?" he called. Nothing. Blade wandered into the bathroom and saw that it had been used a short while ago. "Urmmph." he muttered and wandered downstairs. "Ukyou!" he called. He saw that everything was in it's place, the mess from last night was cleaned up and the smell of a fresh pot of coffee found it's way to his nose. Blade went over to the pot and poured himself a cup. He saw a note on the counter and picked it up. Blade-chan, I didn't want to wake you. After you finish your coffee. Take a bath, take our clothes out of the washer and hang them outside to dry. Then put the chairs down and heat up the grill, and take out the utensils. I'll be back from the market and I expect everything to be set-up when I return. Blade hung his head "Oy!" He then noticed an additional message. P.S.: And be sure not to spill anything. That trick will only work once. Love,Ukyou. Blade: WHADAA MEAN TRICK??? YOU MADE ME PUT THAT POT UP THERE!!!
