Transition And Restart Chapter 297

'What the h.e.l.l? First real walking talking session this year . You a.r.s.e!'

But no matter how much Ryu grumbled he just couldn't compare what they were doing now to his own attempt just days earlier .

It didn't help that sis ran Urufu's errands with a brightness in her eyes that hadn't been there since Nao cheated on her .

'And Nao, you coward, you've not shown your face since . '

Which technically wasn't true . His face had shown up more than once . Usually together with Kuri's, on ads on billboards, television, the Internet and magazines . His fame grew, backlit as it was by Kuri who had stayed the sensation for half a year now .

"Kuri," Ryu started and glanced at his sister .

As every time before Kuri just shook her head . She grabbed his hand and leaned closer . "I'll be there whenever she wants a shoulder to cry on, but I'm not interfering directly with Nao . "

"But they should at least talk, or let me punch his face . "

Kuri smirked and tightened her grip . Her hand was smooth and warm, just about perfect like anything else on her body .

'd.a.m.n, she's not listening . ' Ryu flashed his most winning smile at one of the new members from Iris.h.i.+ma High, and got the predictable result in return, plus a small bonus . The girl threw Kuri an uncertain smile .

Ryu looked at his girlfriend just to find out what kind of predatory grin she had served the poor girl, but there was none, just an amused and welcoming smile . 'OK, that one didn't work . Let's push her some more . '

"What was your name, again?" he asked the girl .

"Ryu, really! It's Chiyo . She's so cute so you really should remember her name!" Kuri said in mock exasperation and let out a bubbling laughter . It came to an abrupt stop, and Ryu felt her flinch .

'Now what? Oh, of course . '

That bell like laughter had rung farther than she planned . Further ahead of them Ryu saw Urufu turn, mesmerised by the sound .

'Well, you're an a.r.s.e, so why don't you just hurt a little bit more!' Ryu tugged Kuri closer, and for the first time since they agreed on her boyfriend girlfriend deal she tried to pull away .

'c.r.a.p, I didn't mean for you to hurt as well . '

The thought barely registered when Ryu saw his sister beelining for Urufu . Some problem or another she hadn't been able to help a team solve, Ryu guessed . Just as she reached her target she threw him and Kuri a measuring look . It quickly turned into an angry stare .

'What's she up to?'

Noriko nestled in all the way under Urufu's arm, and Ryu saw him give her a surprised glance while at the same time typing out some outline on a touch-pad .

"Is it really that cold?" Kuri's voice said .

Both Ryu and Chiyo looked at the show playing out around Urufu . Whatever Noriko had planned, it worked in a way . Urufu's face no longer displayed pain, but instead it showed discomfort with Noriko's closeness .

"Uh, I think I'll join Ai-chan," Chiyo said and made herself scarce .

Ryu followed her back with his eyes until she reached his ex . 'd.a.m.n, goes both ways, I guess, he thought when the familiar lump built in his throat . ' He wasn't anywhere near over his former girlfriend . 'Why did I agree to this stupid set-up in the first place? Ah, yes, Vogue would have forced another boyfriend on her otherwise . '

Was that even legal? Ryu doubted it, but then there were a lot of things that weren't strictly legal, and s...o...b..z, in any of its forms, was infamous for being hard on the girls . Slave contracts his father once explained, and Ryu wondered how he knew . There never was an answer .

"Ryu . Ryu! Idiot bro!"

Ryu shook his head and stared at the apparition facing him . "Yes?" he said somewhat belatedly .

"Don't yes me," his sister said . "Urufu needs the two of you to handle the next station," she continued and glanced at Kuri .

'You really don't like to see Kuri and me together . h.e.l.l, I probably wouldn't if I were you . ' "Sure," he drawled and pretended he disliked being disturbed by his sister .

"You," Noriko said and pointed a finger at Kuri, "had better shape up or I'll take him from you . "

"Huh?" Kuri said .

"Even if just for comfort, I'll take him from you, so get your s.h.i.+t in order and make up with him . "

"Language!" Ryu protested .

"Shove it, idiot bro! Fix that station and leave Kuri to me . " Noriko growled at him, and for a moment Ryu played with the thought of disobeying her . "You want to see if I've mellowed the last year?" Noriko threatened him .

Ryu caved in and made ready to help out with the next station . After he let go he started walking a bit brisker, but he only got a few steps ahead of the girls before he heard his sister again .

"Kuri, you can ask Ryu about me . Whenever I really put my mind to something things end up the way I planned . "

"What is this? A declaration of war?" And that was Kuri's voice . It had an edge to it Ryu hadn't heard for a while .

"Kuri, just trust me on this . If you don't make up with Urufu in a week I'll make sure he never as much as looks your way again . Your call . " With those words Noriko caught up with him and sprinted ahead of him all the way to where Urufu lounged by a stone wall and helped one team with a problem .

'This is bad,' Ryu thought . 'Really, really, really bad . Sis is scary whenever she gets that way . ' She hadn't, for two years now . That attempted **** scared her from acting too rashly . In a way Ryu felt happy that side of her had been restored . 'Still bad . She got that part from mom, and dad always backs down whenever she's in that mood . '

Ryu glanced at his girlfriend . 'Do you have any idea how scary sis can get?' he thought when Kuri returned a quizzical look .
