[Shin~The ladle monster!]

Cale's smile didn't really disappear. Ko had chosen the perfect way to get things started, it appealed to Cale's nature, which wasn't in the least bit romantic. It certainly wasn't going to be a serious fight, but she thought it was going to be fun. She didn't step back as Ko took up a looser, ready stance.

"I'll hold you to those terms.

She promised teasingly as she lifted one hand casually, as if to lay some lingering touch on his shoulder and continue her flirtation... only to snake her hand quickly down to grab him above the elbow to pull him into a throw.

Not that she truly expected him to fall for such an obvious ploy. She was simply eager to initiate, to see how he would respond.

[Vintrict]

Ko let her get close enough to do that. He was just curious how she was going to take advantage of this for herself. It started when she finally took hold and squeezed his bicep. The pull instinctively put his right foot forward, until he realized that Cale had a lot more strength than he gave credit for. The look on his face showed a raised eyebrow and some surprise as he took notice. It made him come to wonder just how built she really was. It almost reminded him of...

No, that was the past.

His left hand snapped forward, grabbing her by the latching arm she was using. His eyes were looking straight at hers as various little routines ran through his head that he could do from this situation. But when it came to those with higher strength, Ko did not have many to use. At that point, putting them into a grappling situation was his best bet, which was not a bad idea for what he had in mind for Cale to begin with. He grabbed her by the forearm just above the wrist, twisted, and squeezed. This relieved a lot of her gripping strength due to pushing the muscles and bones feeding into her wrist together. An old Chinese trick.

What would she do now?

[Shin~The ladle monster!]

Cale was very well-built, although she was still stronger than the size of her muscles would have her believe. Her body wasn't so muscled to the point that it was unattractive - she had more the athletic build of a female fitness model. Her amber eyes were excited as opposed to calculating when he met her gaze.

When he grabbed her wrist, the trick did indeed work to relieve the better part of her grip on his arm. She realized that he would be able to pull free of her grasp easily, so instead of keeping a hold of him, she let go and spun inward while reaching up with her other hand to grip his forearm this time. For a moment her body would be pressed playfully against Ko's, her back to his front while she clutched his arm to her chest. At that point she planned to twist her body and tug on his arm to pull him over her hip and off balance, but her own stance wasn't very sturdy.

[Vintrict]

It was almost like they were performing the tango. His arm was pulled to her front and he could tell at that point that she was pulling and getting ready for a very fierce throw. Many scenarios like this played through his head, and the right counter came when his left foot stepped between her feet and locked itself to the inside of her right foot.

This put his body against hers, thus making it more difficult to throw him since he was sticking to her body now. Her balance was compromised, that he could easily feel. His right arm came around and wrapped her in a chokehold as he kept her to him, pressing their body intimately against one another. They were sort of in a stalemate because Ko wasn't taking advantage of her imbalance. He was actually letting her stay up.

Being so close now, he could smell her perfume and feel the form of her body. The warmness caused his heart to beat faster as her touch caused all kinds of manily signals to go off within in.

[Shin~The ladle monster!]

Cale's hands instinctively flew to the arm that wrapped around her in a chokehold, but she made no real effort to pull him away. She liked the closeness, and the warmth of his body pressed against her back was pleasant. Her balance precarious, she knew that any vigorous attempts to pull him away would prove unsuccessful anyway - although for a brief moment she almost hoped that he would send them both tumbling to the floor. A smile lit up her features as she realized with a husky chuckle that she was roughhousing with Ko. He hadn't seemed like the type. She wasn't sure what was going on in his mind, but Cale was having great fun. She assumed he was also enjoying himself, judging by the way she could tell his pulse was racing. Hers was too.

Instead of trying to escape, she freed both her hands and snaked them around behind the two of them. He could keep his chokehold. She boldly lay her warm palms on his hips and pulled him tightly against her from behind, teasing him by rotating her hips. The adrenaline, as well as the alcohol and excitement of the evening had certainly given Cale whatever courage she needed to get over her reluctance and be so very straightforward.

[Vintrict]

He could only guess what her next move would be. Maybe she would elbow him in the side. Maybe attempt to push him backwards using her weight. She certainly had the position to do so. She could even throw him over her. But instead of either of those options, he felt her hands touch against his hip area, only for her to pull him tightly against her. It was only then that he realized that this was no longer a fight as much as it was a sensual dance between the two dressed individuals. The gesture would have made him blush if he was able to. Instead, he immediately dealt with the feelings that were boiling in his body by hugging to her body and falling to the floor with her in his arms. They both would strike down onto their sides, with Ko on his left and Cale on her right. An oof came from his mouth as he struck, the fall only cushioned by his arm. Nothing bad, but it wasn't a fun feeling all the same.

In essence, they both had fallen to the floor.

[Nefarious Koneko]

-lurks about-

[Shin~The ladle monster!]

Cale hit the floor with a wince, but then she found herself recklessly laughing - the tiny amount of pain from falling on the floor was a small price to pay for the interesting position she'd found herself in. She rolled over onto her back, the red dress pooling around them both on the floor. She took a moment to catch her breath, for it seemed her heart was racing a mile a minute, and turned her head to glance at Ko with an excited, lusty expression.

"So," She asked with a grin, "Since we're both down here... which one of us won? Or does that make it a tie?"

[Vintrict]

The way she giggled and laughed clearly showed her enjoyment of this. Ko felt that he had indeed achieved the bond between Cale and himself. Not as powerful as the one shared between Shayla, he thought, but that was good enough. He was mounted over her with his hands pinning her own to the floor as he stared down into her eyes with a face contrasting hers. While she was smiling and enjoying it, his expression was blank. He was wondering if it was a good idea to even take advantage of her drunken state. He didn't want to make her think that she was good only as a good ********. That would lower morale and just make their relationship edgy down the road. It had to mean something.

"It depends. Do you want to take off your clothes or do you want me to do that for you?"

Flirtatious words came from his mouth instead of questioning her. It looked like his own mind was speaking for him. Or rather, his own growing lust. He supposed he couldn't think about the ethical consequences of this. He just felt that Cale was going to leave a mark on him like Shayla did. This is what they meant about carrying too many buns in one basket.

[Shin~The ladle monster!]

Truthfully, Ko was thinking things through far more than Cale was. He may not have known it, but Cale was quite used to the routine of a one night stand. She was always more guarded with her emotions - one great ******** wouldn't leave her completely lovesick... Not like it would with Shayla. She wouldn't let herself get too emotionally invested, but at the moment she had no moral reservations against the two of them having a good time. Even when she was sober, her reluctance was more due to the fact that others might think she was sleeping her way to the top.

At first his blank expression concerned her, but then his flirtatious words made her smile. She wriggled playfully beneath him, making no move to remove him from his dominant position - she liked him there.

"In that case I'm pretty sure that I lost, come to think of it."

[Vintrict]

Ko lowered his face and kissed her, the light of the night pooling through the window and masking their bodies in a serene glow.

[Vintrict]

The next day, they were soon out on the street. Ko drove a white colored Porsche, which zoomed down the street in fast acceleration. Fast, expensive cars seemed to be the norm from the Renshu thus far, just proving how shameless they were in showing off their wealth and their desire for speed. Taking them to a more standard restaurant, which wasn't too cheap or too expensive, he drove them up to a steakhouse. Taking her inside, he got themselves a table and then menus distributed to them as he sat down.

"Order as much as you want," he said to her, sitting across from her at a table near the window. The seats were very comfortable due to their cushioning. The interior was like a Texas themed bar, with wooden walls, lower lighting, and many accessories of Texas related decorations. This included a head piece of a bull sitting on the wall. Hanging near them was the head piece of a wolf with its mouth opened, as if it was going to bite off one of their heads from above. It was as if Cale was being chased by fate itself.

Cale didn't care much for fancy or rich things, but she did enjoy going fast, and so the ride was an enjoyable one for her.

When they sat at the booth, Cale's eyes seemed drawn to the wolf head mounted above them. It didn't really bother her that it was there, although at one point she found herself making faces at it when she thought Ko was preoccupied with his menu. Yep, he was right in thinking that she did sometimes have a fairly childish outlook on things.

Glancing over the menu, she found her stomach growling. Still, despite his assurances that it would be okay to order as much as she wanted, she felt a little self conscious. To order a meal that would leave her feeling full, even at an average-priced restaurant like this... It would probably leave quite the bill. Not to mention it might be embarrassing to out-eat him. She decided to wait until Ko ordered first, to see how much she should order.

[Vintrict]

When the waiter came, Ko ordered a meal that had all the essentials from the food pyramid: rib eye steak, steamed vegeatables, bread, and a cup of fruit. The waiter then waited for Cale to make her order. All the while, Ko settled back in his seat and stared across the table at her. He really had fallen for her.

[Shin~The ladle monster!]

Cale ordered a very similar meal, only heavier in protein and red meat. Her steak she ordered rare. She still felt a little bit self conscious for ordering a meal as large as his - she was sure that he wouldn't expect a woman to order a large meal, and she didn't seem to care about counting calories. It was a wonder that Cale was as thin as she was, but she actually found it very difficult to put on weight that wasn't muscle.

Catching him staring at her, she gave him a questioning look and tried not to feel self conscious, but the truth was she cared what he thought of her. Which was new, because with most guys she didn't give a damn what they thought.
