Asserting Power

Hope I'm doing this right!!

~*~*~

There is one fact about the difference between men and women that is almost universally acknowledged. It’s been written about, it’s been acted out, its even been put into song.

‘The guy gets all the glory the more he can score
While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore’

It was this fact that had bothered Hilary Tatibana for years and it was this fact that was currently on her mind. The old team had got together again, they were staying at Tysons large house and had been hanging out together for three weeks now, Tyson, Ray, Max, Daichi, Kai and for the first time in years they all seemed to be getting along quite well…. or at least the boys were.

Right now Hilary was in the doghouse and she wasn’t even really sure why! Hilary wasn’t even sure who was the genius that suggested they all go out clubbing last night was but it hadn’t been her!

She had spent most of the evening alone standing at the bar sipping on her long island ice tea she pondered why the guys had it so easy. All of them were looking like they were going to pull tonight. Even Kai and he wasn’t even saying anything. How a guy can have girls fawning over him without saying a word or even acknowledging said girls was beyond her but it seemed to be the case. The weird thing was that he never did anything serious about it, the other guys had all had girlfriends but not him. He was pretty cruel to girls too, he often took someone home but it was just sex, she couldn’t remember the last time he’d had a girlfriend, had he ever had one?

Sighing Hilary turned her gaze from the Russian blader standing on the other side if the room and searched the dance floor looking for the rest of her ‘friends’ Max was currently slow dancing with a shy raven haired beauty… hadn’t they met up last night as well?, Ray appeared to be dancing with two women at the same time his arms wrapped around a blonde and a brunette. Daichi was boasting to lilac haired slightly vampish woman and Tyson… Tyson wasn’t anywhere to be seen, raising herself higher onto her toes she looked around but couldn’t catch sight of the…. Oh there he was… holding onto a platinum blonde haired girl Tyson was re-entering the club a sly smile on his face.

One thing Hilary sure of, was that she needed to get out of here and fast.

Her night was dull and now each of the boys had found a partner… or two… things looked to be getting duller. She knew from experience that sharing a taxi back to the hotel would be awkward… for her at least… and pretty soon one of the women with one of her friends would make one of those comments about Hilary’s reputation in the press.

She didn’t have a bad reputation, in fact her reputation was spotless… that was the problem.

Women that generally came back with the team members were of the type that considered being a virgin, a joke of the best kind.

“There’s nothing worse than a beautiful woman drinking alone”

Hilary sighed and pasting on a fake smile turned to let the guy down easy until she saw who it was.

“Enrique?!” Hilary laughed as the blonde behind her grinned

“The one and only!”

Oddly enough Hilary suddenly didn’t feel like leaving, Enrique was a fun guy and despite his reputation as a ladies man she had never known him to desert her in favour of ‘chasing tail’. The two of them spent a brief time at the bar talking but soon the noise proved too much for a friendly chat and Enrique charmingly offering his arm to Hilary suggested that they head to his hotel in order to talk properly. Hilary gladly accepted and together they left in a taxi, she hadn‘t even thought to inform the guys that she was going, she was 21 now and lived alone in her own flat, she was perfectly capable to look after herself. It was as they left the club that she had tripped, someone got in her way and the two of them went down, luckily Enrique managed to catch her before she hit the ground

“My God, are you alright” the man she had tripped over had saved himself and was now standing by her side “I‘m so sorry”

“I-I‘m ok” Hilary smiled reassuringly at the few people around her. She tried to stand but her ankle throbbed, looking around she blushed at the attention they were getting “Get me out of here” she hissed to Enrique who smiled understandingly and sweeping her into his arms carried her out.

She didn’t think about the Blade breakers for the rest of the night, she and Enrique had headed to his suite, he had ordered her food, ordered her the movie she wanted to watch, spent the evening asking about her life and interests… after three weeks of being with guys who treated her like an unpaid chef/waitress was it any wonder that when he moved in to kiss her she hadn’t pulled away?

Hmphing as she sat back in her seat Hilary crossed her arms and glared at Ray and Tyson who were the main problem right now.

“So what happened last night?”

“Did you sleep with him?”

“Hilary you know Enrique is no good”

“Why didn’t you tell us where you were going?”

The two were relentless. Frowning Hilary looked over at Max and Daichi hoping for some sympathy but receiving nothing but hard looks turned to her last resort… Ok that route was useless too. Kai usually the one person who could be depended on not to treat her like a slave or a child had a thunderous expression on his face.

“We were up all night waiting for you to get home!”

“WHY?” finally Hilary snapped and jumped up off her seat, “Why did you wait up? who asked you to wait up? Certainly not me! and don‘t even try to pretend that if I hadn‘t been seen by one of you being carried by Enrique that you would have all wondered where I had gone.”

“Enrique is trouble” Ray tried to tell her gently

“Says who?”

“He has a different girl every night” Tyson pointed out

“So do you!”

“…”

“Maybe we should relax” Max finally spoke up a voice of reason in the chaos “It‘s not like they’re dating or slept together. Right Hils?”

“…”

“You slept with him?” Kai was the first one to speak after Hilary lapsed into silence

“Not in the way you mean” Hilary snarled “We were on his bed watching a film and fell asleep.”

“On his bed?” Ray asked “Hilary what do you think people will say about you?”

“That I‘m dating him?” Hilary snapped back “Well good, because I am, Enrique will be picking me up tonight and if any of you try to stop me or put him off I‘ll…. I‘ll…. I‘ll call Spencer and see what he‘s up to!”

There was silence, it wasn’t exactly an empty threat on her part, it was no secret that Spencer had made a list many years ago of all the girls in the competition that he intended to sleep with, there had been fifty names in all and so far Hilary was the only real hold out, Maria had turned him down but he had let that go… that was more due to Tala threatening him with castration though. Seeing that they were all speechless following this announcement Hilary pulled herself painfully to her feet and glared at them all before leaving the room and limping into her room.

-*-*-

It was an odd thing for Kai to feel jealous.

It didn’t often happen but he was, he was incredibly jealous.

Many people had thought that he had been jealous of Tyson but that was never the case. It had never been jealousy that spurred him on it had been a need to be the best.

And now he was jealous, really jealous. It annoyed him. The thing that annoyed him most was he wasn’t sure what he was most jealous of. That Enrique had Hilary or that Hilary was willing to be with a guy that was so obviously beneath her

The two of them were sitting together smiling at each other.

They were alone in the park, just Enrique and Hilary sitting in a secluded spot on their blanket.

And Kai watching.

It was obvious to anyone watching the flirting the two were doing, that Enrique was planning taking things further and as he was the one watching it made Kai mad.

Why did it make him so mad?

Enrique leaned in to whisper something to Hilary and she pulled away blushing, looking around she shook her head. Enrique leaned closer smiling as he slowly advanced on the brunette. She squealed as he grabbed her wrists and pulled her in for a kiss.

The two of them were so comfortable as they remained for some time locked in their loving embrace but Kai did not look away, he refused to just leave Hilary with Enrique. He knew the guy well enough to not trust him.

He was proven right in a matter of minutes, Kai was amazed as Enrique pushed Hilary down on the blanket one of his hands slipping down her body and slowly lifting her skirt as he did so. Immediately Hilary was moving away, trying to not outright push him away but maintaining the kiss. Kai didn’t recognise the manoeuvre for the simple reason it had never been used on him but he could see the message behind it.

The tension within Kai eased ever so slightly as Enrique accepted the slight brush-off and moved his hand away from her leg to her shoulder. It was odd but that was the moment Kai knew he could move away. Hilary was the type of girl who could look after herself and if she was still willing to pull away he knew that he could leave them alone together.

For now.

-*-*-

The two of them sat on the floor, Hilary’s foot rested on a pillow and she had a book open but it lay forgotten in her hand as she watched the comedic antics of the yellow figures on screen. Kai wasn’t really watching the television but he was glad to have an excuse for being in the room when Tyson and Ray came to the door.

“Hey guys!” Tyson grinned as he pulled on his jacket “Are you really trusting us to do the shopping alone?”

“Just come back with the things on the list” Hilary replied looking away from the screen “I‘m trusting Ray more than I‘m trusting you!”

“Mean” Tyson pouted but this only made Hilary laugh

“You gonna come with us?” Ray asked looking at Kai “Or are you finally opening up to the genius of the Simpson’s?”

“If it‘s a choice between shopping with you and staying here to watch this…” Kai left the rest unsaid as he turned to gaze at the screen

“Ok just make sure Hilary doesn‘t stand on that ankle” Ray retorted

“I‘m not helpless” Hilary argued but Ray and Tyson had disappeared before she could get annoyed. Shaking her head she turned to face Kai surprised to see him staring at her.

“So do you want anything?” Kai asked politely

“Um… no” Hilary shook her head smiling “but thank you.”

Soon the episode was over and Kai turned to look at her

“Do you mind if we watch something other than a moronic yellow family?”

“The Simpson’s are not any moronic than you are, they have more interesting conversation for starters.” Hilary mumbled her retort with a teasing smile

“I beg your pardon?” Kai turned to her with an amused smirk

“You heard me” Hilary shifted on the floor to face him properly “and I was sitting right here so you really should have heard me, unless you‘re going deaf in your old age?”

“Old age?”

“Well come on you‘re twenty three now” she hissed through her teeth sympathetically “it‘s like next stop death”

“Oh really?”

Suddenly Kai had Hilary pinned to the floor and was tickling her to within an inch of her life. The brunette giggled hysterically as his fingers stayed at her waist, she kicked out suddenly and then pain irradiated across her face. Kai backed off suddenly remembering her injury, guilty he knelt beside her.

“Shit! Sorry.” he stared down at her waiting for her to make a sign that she was alright.

“It‘s ok” she sat up wincing slightly “I don‘t care what Ray said I really think it might be broken.”

“Hold still” Kai moved and knelt down by her feet, slowly he took hold of her ankle, she grimaced as he did this and he looked up apologetically “Sorry”

“It‘s ok”

Slowly he turned her ankle, despite the swelling there was no bruising and the ankle turned smoothly enough. “It looks like it‘s just sprained.”

He looked at her smiling, she grinned back. “That’s a relief” she really was relieved but then she noticed something, why hadn’t either of them moved yet? Why was Kai still holding her ankle? “Kai?”

“Mm-hm?” he wasn’t looking at her face any more, his eyes seemed fixated on her ankle and the way he could fit his whole hand around it.

“Um…” Hilary couldn’t think of anything to say as Kai’s hands started to slowly massage their way along her leg. All she could so was stare at his expressionless face and try to work out what he was up to. Slowly his sinewy hands stroked her pale skin reaching further and further up until “KAI!”

Looking up Kai could see the embarrassed expression on Hilary’s face “I‘m sorry” he moved away carefully resting her ankle back down on the cushion, he stood and was about to leave the room when

“Wait!”

Turning back he looked down at Hilary who, still on the floor, was propping herself up on her elbows unconsciously lying in a very erotic looking position.

“What?” he asked sullenly

“Why did you do that?”

“Wanted to” he shrugged again but Hilary didn’t like that answer, sitting up she climbed to her feet angrier than she could ever remember being.

“Fuck you” she hissed as she limped painfully to the door, she was about to go past him when his arm shot out and blocked her path “Get off me Hiwatari I‘m going home”

“No you‘re not” he spoke decisively as he leant down and in a swift movement scooped her up into his arms.

“If you don‘t put me down I swear to god…” he kissed her, it was awkward as he held her in his arms but it was enough to appease the angry girl. She was speechless actually and as Kai turned to carry her into his room she merely wound her arms around his neck and allowed him to.

Upon entering his room Kai lay Hilary down on his bed and she looked at him with wide confused eyes, he calmly walked back to his door closing it and locking it before turning to gaze at her. She lay on the bed resting on her elbows and staring at him, she was a little flushed and as he walked slowly toward her she inadvertently licked her lips making him smile.

He lay down on his left side next to her, he rested one elbow on the bed looking down at her, slowly he placed his free hand on her knee, he could see her inhale nervously as he moved the hand up her leg once more. She was keeping her legs closer together this time but he slid his hand between her slim thighs slipping one finger under her underwear and brushing at the already wet folds.

Hilary was in a state of confusion… and arousal. Kai was the kind of guy that could make a girl orgasm merely by looking at her and he was staring at her with such fire she could already feel the heat building up within her and then he touched her…. Oh god when he touched her. She had no idea why he was doing this or what he was fully intending to do but… it was Kai….

She knew it wasn’t a good excuse but that was the only one she had. She was cheating on Enrique… although god knew how long that was going to last… still she had never allowed any boyfriend to go as far as Kai was now and they weren’t even dating. Still she kept her eyes on his. He kept staring at her face even as he slowly inserted one finger into her awaiting body he stared into her eyes. His fingers were long, slim but rough and it felt so good to have someone other than herself touch her there. Finally as he made a move with his finger stroking her inner walls she opened up to him, allowing her legs to spread apart and laying flat down on the bed.

Kai smirked as Hilary’s eyes closed, she inhaled sharply as he slowly moved his finger, she had taken this daring behaviour very well and so he moved closer as he pulled out his finger and entered two. Again there was that deep inhalation of breath and she bit her lip. He moved his fingers slowly at first but then as he prepared to add a third finger he began to pick up the pace. He pulled out his two fingers and this time as he added a third there was nothing slow or gentle about it he plunged them in with force making her gasp and start to sit up.

“Kai?” she was gasping but he pressed his lips to hers making her lie back down onto the bed. Soon the pleasure took over any rational thoughts on her part and Hilary was crying out, one hand clung to Kai’s hair while the other took hold of his shirt. The blunette pulling back just watched her smirking as she gasped and shuddered. She stunning in that state, her eyes closed, a slight sheen of sweat on her forehead, her mouth a small o of surprise and pleasure.

Her eyes were opened as he pulled his fingers from her, he licked at them tasting her sweetness, immediately her eyes closed again, Kai’s expression turned tender as Hilary’s face scrunched up and she tried to turn away from him. He could tell that she was confused and embarrassed and began to relax her by kissing her cheek gently.

“K-Kai?” Hilary looked at him her blush obvious

“Yes?”

“Wh-why are you doing this?”

“You don‘t like it?” he asked teasingly, Hilary closed her eyes and tried to sit up but Kai forced her back down on the bed rolling to lie on top of her

“Kai!” Hilary was surprised by the movement as Kai gazed at her with eyes filled with annoyance “Kai what are you doin…”

“Shut up” he hissed and pressed his lips to hers in a possessive kiss that successfully wiped all rational thought from the young girls mind. She didn’t even notice as his hands made their way down to her shirt unbuttoning it speedily. She didn’t pay any attention to his hands whatsoever she didn’t register anything as she felt herself lifted up and her arms being moved. It wasn’t until her shirt slid off and warm hands made contact with her skin that her higher brain functions kicked in. Gasping she pushed herself away from Kai and wrapped her arms around herself.

“What’s wrong?” Kai asked staring her right in the eye and trying not to focus on the area his actions had been leading him towards.

“Nothing but… I have a boyfriend”

“Enrique?” Kai asked mockingly as the hand that had been resting on the bed moved onto her shoulder and soon began to moved down allowing his hand to trace down the outline of her body.

“You… you may not think… much of him but… I can‘t do this, it‘s unfair” Hilary was beginning to have trouble talking with Kai, the way his hand seemed to be moving of it’s own accord until it came to rest cupping at her breast with it’s thumb pressing on her nipple that had become hard and obvious to his touch.

“Then call him”

“What?”

Kai sighed obviously annoyed at her stupidity “call him and break up with him.”

“I can‘t do tha…” Hilary argued but was broken off when Kai decided to sit up and swing his leg over her straddling her supine form. He smirked at her shocked reaction and placing both his hands on her breasts moved his head down to whisper in her ear.

“I can feel what I‘m doing to you, do you now feel what you‘re doing to me” and suddenly he ground his lower half down even more so that Hilary could ‘feel what she did to him’ “Sweet Hilary… this is happening, you can decide whether or not it happens before you break up with Enrique is up to you.”

“KAI!” The shout from outside the room saved Hilary from having to respond

“I‘m in here!” Kai yelled back rolling off Hilary and the bed before heading to the door

“Come help with the shopping!!”

Grunting angrily Kai turned back to the half dressed girl on his bed, what a time to be interrupted.

“Make the call” he commanded unlocking his door and heading downstairs.

-*-*-

“Where’s Hil?” Tyson asked as he and Ray started to unpack the shopping

“She was feeling unwell, I let her sleep on my bed” Kai lied, he decided that if he said that the others wouldn’t question it when he suggested Hilary stay the night and stay in his room. Smirking he picked up the bag of frozen food and carried it over to the freezer.

“Is she going to be ok for the meeting?” Tyson asked sounding concerned

“Meeting?” Kai asked completely thrown, his intentions after helping with the shopping was to drag Hilary somewhere remote or lock himself into his room with her and spend the next few hours fucking her senseless “what meeting?”

“Uh… the BBA teams meeting, duh!” Tyson informed him childishly “and they call me dumb. You guys do realise that Enrique will be there don‘t you?”

“Oh god” Ray muttered “why is Hilary even with him?”

“She says he makes her laugh” Tyson told him, “I don‘t get that, I make her laugh but she aint dating me”

“There’s a difference between laughing with a person and laughing at them” Kai smirked as he spoke “and girls always say… he makes me laugh… about a guy they don‘t really find attractive or good enough for them! She‘ll break up with him before this day ends.”

“Good to know!” Tyson cocked his head to one side as he looked at Kai “but how do you know that?”

Well? Opinions?
