School Rumble (Broom and I)

"Everything," Komoku murmured, nostrils twitching a moment in thought. "You're a strong girl, Mei...you got all kinds of talent, you're gorgeous...got a scent that'd make me run five miles to smell again..." he sighed blissfully. "But you're about as terrifying as a cat in heat when I'm around, which is cute as shit...but look at you now, you're uncomfortable because you're naked, why? What's there to be uncomfortable about? I know you're gorgeous, so do you...you need to understand yourself better, I learned that years ago...and I've never been happier, or more well fucked.," he grinned.

"Mostly that last one."
 
Mei was silent for a moment before her lips curled upward and she..started to laugh. It wasn't..a short one either. She honestly couldn't stop laughing..at all. It had been years since she really felt the need to laugh so loud or long, but when she finally controlled herself, she looked away, slightly embarrassed. "I'm sorry..I didn't mean to laugh so much.." She told him as she slightly covered her blushing face. "I just...didn't expect to be getting advice on how to better myself from you..." She gave him a smile, and then kissed him softly. "Fine, if being naked will make me understand myself and give me more confidence, I won't put anything on..."
 
"Good," he said, satisfied with himself a moment before his expression changed to mild annoyance. "...Hey, what do you mean you didn't expect to be getting advice!?" he grumbled, his expression like a grumpy dog who lost his favorite toy. "I give good advice! I give great advice!" Hmph.
 
"Oh, I am sure." Mei said teasingly, caressing the his cheek with the back of her hand. "Don't pout like that. There are only two other people that give me advice in the world that I actually follow." Mei wasn't sure if she was seeing a different side to him, or if he had always been like this and that was what attracted her to him in the first place.
 
"Uh huh," Komoku said dryly, eyes narrowed suspiciously at her. "...Suppose as long as you're naked, I won't complain." Besides, it'd be good for her to get out of her comfort zone. Her job as Boss would mean she'd be challenged with that on a daily basis, if she couldn't get comfortable with some skin, they were going to be so fucked.
 
"Yeah, thought as much." Mei looked away from him, the smile still remaining on her lips. She really didn't know exactly why she felt so..happy. Especially now, after the sex was done. But, she might as well enjoy it for now. After being in charge for so long, she needed an outlet to relax, and she wouldn't complain if she could do it in more ways than just sex. "Just don't make me come to your door naked again, okay? I'm fine with you seeing me like this, but no one else."
 
"I dunno, you seemed to like it," Komoku smirked, heading out to the kitchen to check on dinner. "Go relax, babe. I'll handle dinner." She did, too. She was soaked when he saw him.
 
Mei blushed a little. She wouldn't have liked it so much if she really did get caught. Ugh, this was going to be annoying to deal..arguing about whether or not she needed to wear clothes.

"Oh, Komoku...have you seen any of the five that we fought a little while back? The ones who kidnapped Jana? I have an arrest warrant out for them, it's very important that we capture at least one of them. From what Nicholas told me...we can't just leave them to their own devices."
 
"...Really," Komoku mused, gently prodding the steaming bag a moment. "Arrest warrant, you say, for what?" Well, that was going to...complicate things, just a little.
 
"Well the blonde hair boy is obvious, rape, battery, assault..but the other four? They're involved in some sort of conspiracy along with him to try to eliminate DC...So was the girl who attacked Damien and I to free him." Mei explained as she propped her leg up on the couch, laying down. "I figured they were slumming around Red, and I haven't gone out there since we rescued Jana. But you, Dujae and Sejae are the only ones who know exactly what to look for, since I still have no idea who any of them are."
 
"...well, I'll let them know," Komoku shrugged. "Dujae and Sejae go to some pretty rough places, I'm sure they're familiar with anyone hearing about them." Woo boy...was he going to be in trouble if Mei found out.
 
"Good...I wish I could be of more use right now..at least I'll get the eyepatch removed at the end of the week." If Mei went out right now she'd be more of a liability than anything. She still had another month to go, and even then she might not be able to get back out there right away. Though there were plenty of other things for her to do.
 
"Well, you should let me know when you need an extra muscle or two," Komoku smirked. "You're not some lone wolf anymore, girl. You're the leader, you can't go out on your own, even if you think you should."
 
"Sometimes I forget," Mei began as she laid her head back. "I've been alone for so long, I honestly do forget that I have people I can depend on. Usually when I get really angry..." Like when she saw that text message...she just left without telling anyone to save Jana but...she was really lucky Komoku and his friends came to help out. She could only imagine what the outcome would have been otherwise.
 
"No kidding," Komoku said dryly. "But you can't do that anymore, Mei. Being the leader and all, it's dangerous, and a little bit stupid. Leave it to the idiots like me."
 
"...I know. I'm trying my best to remember that. Not that you're an idiot...just durable." Mei commented as she looked at the ceiling. She wasn't sure how long it was going to take before she got used to relying on others..it was her job to command, though. In a different sense than what she was used to.
 
"Must be all that milk I drank as a child," Komoku mused, sitting down the steamed bag of fish with a complete assortment of vegetables and potatoes. "Or all the fights I got in, probably that too...but I did love milk," he grinned. "Cheap, you know? I started liking tea later."
 
"I liked orange juice and milk when I was a younger. Then I grew into water and tea only." She watched as he set down dinner, and she got up from the couch and sat at his table. "This all smells really good. Thank you."
 
"Sure," Komoku grinned, sitting next to her. "My pleasure, bad manners to not make a pretty girl dinner after you fuck her." Among other things, anyway...at least she was embracing what he suggested, she seemed quite comfortable around him without any clothes.
 
Mei was content with being naked because of the long curtain of brown hair she could hide behind. It made her feel as if she weren't completely and totally exposed. Now that it was drying, it was thickening and covering her entire back, and some of her chest. She smiled when he sat next to her and then started to dig in. She was always hungry, mainly because she usually worked through lunch all the time. "How did you lean how to cook like this?"
 
"Worked a place that's probably gone now when I was younger, between my fights," Komoku mused. "The Iron Wok, great place...owner was a former soldier, about sixty years old when he took me in, scariest old bastard I ever met," he grinned. "Guy was half blind, could barely hear. But lemme tell you, he could cook some damn food, and that Wok was about as deadly as a sword in his hands." he said, rubbing his head with a sigh. "It was crap living there, but it gave somewhere for Masami to sleep, good enough for me."
 
Mei tilted her head a little hearing the story. It did make sense, but she couldn't help but wonder why exactly he and Masami were out on the streets in the first place. She was never aware of any poverty in Blue territory. If anyone was an orphan they normally had an inheritance, she knew a person like that back before she went to Central. "May I ask what happened to your parents?" She never even asked Jana about her past, but maybe it was because she simply wrote off everything as "She's from red". Mei..felt bad about that.
 
"Don't know," Komoku shrugged. "Long as I remember, it's been just me and Masami. Can't say I give a fuck if they abandon their own kids to the streets. Being poor in Blue sucks, Mei. You're always the brunt of every joke, you're always the reason that something bad happened, always the punching bag..." he trailed off absently, chomping into some steamed broccoli. "One day, they started getting a little too nice to my sister, told them to back off and they tried to do something about it." he said, recalling with a wild grin. He could still remember the taste of blood on his teeth.

"First boy who touched her got bit, I tasted bone."
 
Mei was silent for a moment as she ate. She honestly wasn't sure what to say...she never thought about what it was like to be poor. She supposed that she had always taken her parents for granted, and that really made her feel like a bad person. In fact, she was sure that she had been one of those people who looked down on the lower class, stereotyping them as trouble makers. "...Sorry. I'm sorry you and your sister had to go through that. I'm also sorry for calling you trash before.."
 
"I am trash, Mei," Komoku grinned. "I am gutter trash, I am everything those people told me, and more. I'm violent, I enjoy beating people into a messy pulp, I like risking everything for a fight. I like the fear of that I might die against a strong opponent. I like fucking women, I like making people afraid. They tell me like I don't know what I am, but I know it...but I don't care. I became a king of my trash heap while everyone stayed in their fancy houses with their loving families. I made it work, I don't care what they say. I let my sister grow up to be however she wanted, that's all I give a shit about. Now?" he mused.

"Now, Dujae and Sejae and I...they don't even bother anymore, they act like they can do something, but they know if I wanted to, I could waltz right into their pretty little houses and make them live like I did. They don't touch my sister, because she's a terror on her own, but they know what would happen if I found out."
