What did you do to me?

U-1146's POV: Since the hypovolemic shock, my head is a mess. I had run to the zone of the hemorrhage and saw an empty ground there, a sign that a lot of my coworkers, neighbors, friends, and other inhabitants of my world would never come back again... I also found an erythrocyte's cap there. A lonely one, without its owner... I started to panic and wanted to look at the cap's badge that would tell me, whom it belonged to. But my fear that it could be hers didn't let me. "And what if Sekkekkyuu was here? And what if she was one of the fallen?" I gulped and mustered the courage to read the badge: no, it wasn't yours. For two brief seconds, I felt relieved, but then it hit me that this didn't mean anything: this was not guaranteeing me that you were alive, and even if you were, you could still fall down there. Then, thanks to a blood transfusion (and the combined efforts of us all) we got saved, and everything slowly returned to normality. And there you were, on another delivery and about to collapse. I felt relieved and happy, so extremely happy. When your poor legs couldn't take it anymore, and you were about to fall, I rushed to your side, and your beautiful amber eyes, surrounded by these long, red eyelashes, turned into my direction, and you smiled at me. The same way as the day we had first met, the same as always, the same as I remember you. Since that day, I started questioning myself: what is it that is uniting us? We are always running into each other, even though the probability of it is one in a billion, and it's not that I don't like it, on the contrary: someone as sweet and cheerful as you is making my days only better. Now that I think about it, 4989 is partly right: since the two of us have become friends, I smile more often. Now you have gotten better in your work, and I'm really happy for you, but these three times we were meeting in one single day earlier have become just one or two and a lot shorter encounters, since I don't have to guide you anymore. However, I admit that I changed my route a few times on purpose to have more time for a conversation with you or simply to watch over you, because you are so cute, so kind, and so irresistible that you attract anything... Wait... Irresistible? Shit... Aaaah, damn it! What is happening to me? What am I thinking? But she's so cute... no, she's a red blood cell and also your friend! Don't you dare think about her that way, U-1146! But oh well, it's not as if it was a crime, either. I mean, a lot of red blood cells live together as a couple... and even macrophages and dendritic cells, not to mention the things happening in the liver or the gallbladder, these places aren't called "the Dark-Red Light District" for nothing. B-B-But she's so cute, so sweet, so innocent, and we're just friends! I can't think further than that! Even though I am dying to kiss her. Damn! Damn! How can I even think about something like that? Stupid 2048 and 2626 with their stupid ideas! I should never have gone to the liver with them. How could they mention that AE3803 would look sexy dressed as a hepatocyte or a Kupffer cell?... Aaaaaah! Now I will never get rid of that image in my head! These bastards! But I do have to admit that they are right, surely she would look even cuter than she already does. But is that even possible? She's already so beautiful as she is now, is it really possible to top that? Even just dressed in her uniform she looks like a goddess, I never thought about that, but AE3803 really is so damn gorgeous... Ah? Aaaaah! You're doing it again, 1146! Shut up! Even though you're not even talking, just thinking! Asshole... Wait, is that her? It's her! And she's coming here. How should I look her into the eyes after everything I imagined? Behave... and greet her normally. Oh, no way! She carries an ice cream cone and doesn't wear her jacket... What a temptation, Kami-sama! "Good day, Hakkekkyuu-san! Wow, it's so hot today! The temperature started rising all of a sudden, isn't that strange? Do you want to?"  She's offering me to lick from her ice cream. God, she looks so... so... tempting. Behave, you damn pig! Lick it and act normally. "Thanks, Sekkekkyuu, ah..." Good heavens, no wonder she likes this stuff so much. Refreshing, sweet and with a soft texture. Hm? Why is she looking at me like that? No, don't do it... don't smile at me like that, don't, no, no, no, no! Aaaahhh, I can't take it anymore! "Did you like it?" the red blood cell asked, eating her cold dessert, without taking her eyes off the petrified guy. "What?!" "The ice cream, did you like it?" "That too, I mean, yes. I like the ice cream too... He." *** The poor neutrophil, who was tortured by his feelings towards that sweet delivery girl, wandered around through the bloodstream, wondering what had happened. From time to time, the mental image of a beautiful AE in a dress returned to him and made him cover his face with both hands, fearing that someone could read his indecent thoughts. When he finally managed to get rid of it, he started to remember her lips as she was enjoying her frozen treat and felt guilty once again. But the worst thing was yet to come: his muse with her ice cream AND wearing a sensual dress. "Hands up, you shameless pervert!" "I'm innocent, I didn't touch her!!!" screamed the startled 1146, raising his hands. "Oh, man... This was just a joke, but as I see, I did catch you red-handed. So tell me, what kind of filthy thing did you do?" Young 4989 had the bad habit to appear out of nowhere with some dramatic entrance or jokes like that, but he had never imagined receiving such an answer from his friend, one of the most serious and focused cells he knew, almost confessing the intention of committing a crime. "Ah, well, to be honest... I do need to talk to someone about it, or I'm going to go crazy, but I don't think that this someone should be you." "So you'd rather talk to 2626, the pervert with the hairdo of a fucker? Or to 2048, the Casanova with the bad habit of gossiping with the macrophages? Oh, I know! To 2001! Ah, no, wait, that wouldn't be a great idea, since he would basically send you packing, saying that he had 'no time for gossip'," the younger one mocked him, making it clear that if he wanted to talk, then only to him. The tormented neutrophil gulped. Yeah, his friend had a very good point. They went to a secluded place, checking it thoroughly for the presence of a certain "green ninja". 1146 told his friend about the cause of his mental suffering and was pleasantly surprised that the other didn't mock him or make any joke. Yet. "Fact is that you're totally in love with that girl, 1146, and it's normal, you know... that your instincts demand you to 'act'. You like that girl and I don't blame you for that, on the contrary, I would be way more concerned if you didn't like any girl. We all had made our round through the bars in the liver, but strangely not you. Why? Are you saving yourself for marriage? Or are you celibate?" "Sh-Shut up! That's not it, it's just that I'm focused on my work, that's all," replied the one with the covered eye, embarrassed. "Oh~ So you've reached puberty! Soon, you'll have hair where there wasn't any before, and your voice'll become deeper..." "Go to hell, 4989..." "That was to break the tension, just a joke, just a joke. I'm only messing with you, in fact, you're the most intelligent and noble of us all... And this is why you're feeling bad, because you're so good-hearted! So good-hearted that you even think that finding the girl you like sensual is a crime. This is your problem. And no, it's not a crime! It's normal... what's not normal here is the fact that you still haven't kissed that cutie." "Hey, more respect for Sekkekkyuu!" "No, less respect for Sekkekkyuu! Come, be bolder with her, quit being stupid. Believe me, all this nonsense like 'Oh no, I'm such a bad guy, a pervert, this is wrong, I'll go to hell~' will go away once you've gotten rid of your horniness." "Don't say it like that... you make it sound even worse. And no, it's not horniness," objected 1146, covering his face. "No? So what is it then?" asked the younger one with sarcasm. "I like her." "This is horniness, you want to do it with her, and I'm not talking about going on a walk." "No!" "You don't?" "I do! Aaaah! No! Well, yes, but not because of horniness or anything! Don't look at me like that! You know what I'm talking about! AAAAAAAAAAAAH!" "Nope, no clue..." "I like her, but not only because she's beautiful, I like everything about her, not only her body. Everything, her personality, her laughter, her wonderful eyes, her cute character... Have you ever seen the adorable expression on her face when she learns a new route? Or how her voice changes when she's happy from when she's nervous?" The younger one looked at his friend once again. This was exactly what he had wanted to hear, and also possibly what 1146 needed to hear from himself as well. "Then, my dear 1146, you don't like her, you love her. So there's nothing wrong with all these thoughts about her that your filthy little head produces," answered 4989, tapping with his finger on the older one's forehead. "So what should I do?" "For a start, you could confess your feelings to her, see if she feels the same, and if she does..." "..." "And if she does, then kiss her. I wouldn't mind doing it myself, she's really pretty..." 4989 had to run away after making this joke, in order to not be phagocytized by his friend. During the persecution, the latter got hit hard and fell... on top of Sekkekkyuu. "Sekkekkyuu! I'm sorry! Are you alright?" She didn't respond, and he got scared. "Sekkekkyuu! Forgive me!" The red blood cell managed to open her eyes with difficulty, and two small tears flowed out of them, these eyes the neutrophil adored so much. He felt miserable at the sight. "Tell me I didn't wound you... Are you alright? Where does it hurt?" he inquired, placing his hand under her head, like a pillow... he perceived something warm and noticed that his hand and glove were covered in hemoglobin. "Hakkekkyuu-san, my head hurts so much. Is this mine?" she asked, still being on the floor, seeing the red liquid on his glove. "I'm so sorry... I will bring you to the infirmary, don't worry, everything will be alright." "Damn 4989, you will pay for this, I'll kill you." Like a princess from a fairy tale, the neutrophil carried the girl in his arms, looking for the nearest infirmary. She didn't lose conscience, but rested her head against his chest. The white soldier thought that she was doing it because it hurt so much, and felt even guiltier. "Hakkekkyuu-san, it was just an accident. No need to feel guilty." "My carelessness is the cause for you getting hurt, I'm very sorry. So please allow me to take care of you..." AE raised her face dangerously close to the neutrophil's, who was fighting with himself to stay calm. The young woman wrapped her arms around his neck, she was so close, with a different expression on her face and a look that was making him nervous. A mysterious smile appeared on her lips and a special spark in her eyes. "With pleasure, Hakkekkyuu..." 1146 could swear that there was something different about her voice, which was softer, and certainly something different in that "Hakkekkyuu", not to mention that she removed the honorific "-san". And again that mental cinema started playing in his head that was making him feel like a sinner. But this time, he had his hands full and couldn't even cover his face. At the infirmary, a macrophage treated her wound that had to be closed up with two stitches. Then, she examined her thoroughly. There wasn't anything to worry about, but she still recommended the red blood cell to rest and to stay a few hours at the infirmary under observation to make sure that she didn't vomit or have any internal damage. "What happened was my fault, so please let me take care of her." The blond, blue-eyed macrophage smiled. "Teh hee~ you're so sweet, Neutrophil. Alright, you can stay with her, but just for two hours, after that you both will return to your work, mmmm? You can stay here, in room two, room one is for emergency patients and three for outpatient cases... Here you have magazines, books and a music player on the shelf next to the bed and the couch, but make sure she doesn't read, she can't strain her eyes, okay?~" "Yes, Miss, thank you very much," answered the neutrophil and turned around to AE, who was sitting on the bed. A few minutes were spent in silence, until she broke the awkwardness. "Hakkekkyuu-san? Can I ask you a favor?" "Of course, whatever it may be," he answered, getting next to the bed and waiting for instructions. "I want to lie down, but this pillow is a bit too hard. Could you maybe fluff it up for me?" "Sure." It was a simple task: just get closer, bend down and shake the pillow a bit... bend down to her, get closer to her and shake the pillow that would be under her neck. Okay, maybe not that simple after all. He gulped again, putting in all the efforts in the universe to not give in to his basic impulses. "Ah, I think that... Is this alright?" "Mmmm, no. A bit more, please," she asked, being dangerously close. "Did she just whisper? Did she just whisper into my ear? No, I'm imagining things... Good grief, what a pleasant shudder. No! Stop! Enough! Calm down, that's just your imagination, 1146." "How about now?" "Now it's better, thanks, Hakkekkyuu-san." New minutes of silence followed that felt like eternity for the neutrophil. And again, it was her who broke it. "Hakkekkyuu-san, I don't want to annoy you, but could you do something else for me?" "Sure, this is why I'm here." "Great to hear that. I'd like to take off my shoes and socks... So could you please? If it's not too much trouble, of course." He nodded. After all, he had promised to take care of her, so he had to do it, even despite his inner voice shouting: "And now throw yourself at her and make her yours!". The red blood cell stretched one of her feet into his direction, she couldn't help but remember the princess from a fairy tale who loses her glass slipper. Though, in her case it was the other way round, he would remove her shoe, instead of putting it on. He took off her shoes and one of her black socks, exposing her small foot. Now only the other sock remained. "You have me literally at your feet, Sekkekkyuu. Why do I have the impression that you're doing it on purpose? No, no, no... it's just my imagination, you would never do anything like that." "Hakkekkyuu, do you find me beautiful?" she suddenly asked, caressing the neutrophil's chin with the upper part of her exposed foot. He was frozen in shock, wondering whether he was dreaming. "..." "Do you find me beautiful, yes or no?" she repeated, raising his chin with her foot. He, for his part, had swallowed so much saliva by now that he was mentally begging for a glass of water. "Y-Y-Yes, you're-you're the m-most beautiful woman I-I know." She smiled and offered him her other foot, so that he could take off the second sock. "So why have you never said it before?" "Ah, well. You have never asked..." he replied, blushing violently while removing the last sock. "Hakkekkyuu, would you like to kiss me?" "This is not real, it's a dream, just a dream... Take advantage of it! No, no, no, no... it's probably the blow, Sekkekkyuu must be confused from it. Should I go for the nurse?... I know, it's me who has a concussion and is in a coma, this is all just a dream." "Ah..." The red blood cell grabbed his jacket and pulled him towards herself, so close that their foreheads were touching. "Yes or no?" "Yes." As soon as he had pronounced that word, she kissed his pale lips. The white soldier clumsily tried to reciprocate that kiss that was getting more and more intense with each second. He didn't understand what was going on, but it was not like he even wanted to, not now that this gorgeous red-haired girl with the golden eyes had gently and playfully broken the kiss and started to nibble his lower lip with relish. The white blood cell's breathing became agitated. That stimulation was too much for him, almost torturous, and it was just the beginning. "Sekkekkyuu... I..." "Shhh... you can't be loud in an infirmary," she silenced him mischievously and took off his white cap, kissing him again on the lips. "Do you want to continue kissing me, Hakkekkyuu?" "Yes, yes, I do... please." He bent down to do it, but she stopped him, making a barrier with the palm of her hand. "Why didn't you do anything earlier?" "Huh?" "Like, seriously?! Did I have to send you an invitation? A letter, maybe? Come on! Did you at least notice that I put on make-up? Or that I combed my bangs differently yesterday?" "Wait... so you did flirt with me?" "Pha... and you're supposed to be the clever one." She kissed him once more, biting his lips from time to time. The neutrophil was just letting her do it, without putting up any resistance. When she noticed that he was clutching the bedsheet, trying to hold back, she couldn't help but chuckle. "He, no need to do that...", she murmured, taking his hands and placing them on her hips. "Sekkekkyuu, if you continue like this, I can guarantee for nothing... You're driving me crazy. "Oh no, not yet," she whispered to the neutrophil, who was completely at the mercy of his "captor's" will. "Look now..." She slowly licked his ear, making him send to hell every last shred of his self-control, it was too much, he just couldn't take it anymore. Not even in his craziest dreams had he ever imagined something like this. Now it was him greedily kissing her, and his hands on her waist started to move, one to her back and the other to her thigh. "Sekkekkyuu, you're cruel..." "Really?~ Not that you were putting up any sort of resistance," the red blood cell replied, wrapping her legs around the leukocyte to hold him in place, while creating a path of kisses starting from his cheeks to his chin and stopping at his neck. The feeling of her tongue playing around with his skin was driving him insane. 1146 allowed her to love him, trying to regulate his breathing, and took off one of his gloves with his teeth. He needed skin-to-skin contact, to feel the soft skin of his beloved Sekkekkyuu. When this was done, his hand returned to her back while the other was grabbing her thigh that was still holding him prisoner. "I don't care if it's a dream, it's the best of my damn life." "And what if someone enters?" he whispered. "Mmm~ you're right, then I'll have to stop." "Eh? So we're not going to continue this?" "This? What do you mean, exactly?" she asked with hope. The question threw the neutrophil off his guard, and he automatically remembered 4989's words. So which was it? Horniness? Love? Passion? Lewdness? Or all four together? "This... this... this... is..." "Wrong answer, Hakkekkyu-SAN!" exclaimed the erythrocyte, emphasizing the "san". Then she automatically let go of him, shoved him from herself, laid down and turned her back to him, adding without even looking at him: "I'm better, you can leave." "Sekkekkyuu, what I wanted to say is... is... uhm, is that..." "You don't even know it yourself. Please, just go back to work, I want to sleep a bit." 1146 wanted to talk to her, to turn her around and try to understand what had happened. Explain to her that his head was a mess and that the only thing he knew for sure was that he was in love with her. But then the macrophage entered. "Well, well ~ Mister Neutrophil, there was just an announcement that all the available soldiers need to head to the peripheral area, where an abrasion has appeared. Don't worry, I'll take care of the red blood cell myself. ~" He nodded and left to do his work, planning to return after that and to clarify with AE what had happened. When the antigen was beaten, he ran back to the infirmary, but the erythrocyte was gone. In the meantime, and going against the nurse's word, AE3803 was slowly walking home. She felt a bit weak and dizzy, maybe it hadn't been such a great idea to leave the infirmary, after all. But she just couldn't stay there. She didn't want to see Hakkekkyuu-san's face, not after what had happened. AE felt ashamed. She had fallen hopelessly in love with him quite some time ago and despite giving him respect, affection, attention and compliments, he was just treating her like a friend. So she decided to become more active: improving in her work, using make-up, but he didn't even notice it. Then she tried to change her hairstyle a bit... nothing. Maybe dropping some hints?.. Nope. After this, the blow that had cost her two stitches on her head and the fact that he offered to take care of her, brought back her hopes, her inner voice saying: "Come on, AE, one more try. Be bolder, and maybe it works out this time.". She saw the right opportunity, took it, kissed him, he kissed her back and allowed her to continue, but when she asked him what it was.. he couldn't answer. What a painful blow to her self-esteem. "He doesn't love me, he just got carried away..." She was muttering to herself while wiping away a few tears, smearing over the make-up she had gotten as a gift from Lady Macrophage. "So stupid, now I probably look like a damn raccoon..." She started walking at a faster pace, her apartment was already nearby. But she still felt a bit light-headed and her wound was throbbing. And just as she was thinking about stopping for a rest, she perceived a voice: "Sekkekkyuu, we have to talk! Wait!" It was him, Hakkekkyuu-san... She pretended to not have heard him and walked even faster, trying to leave him behind. But that goddamn wound made her sway sidewards, and she bumped against a wall, to not fall to the ground. "Sekkekkyuu, let me hel-" "No, I'm okay. I'll manage on my own." She got up to her feet and continued to drag herself forward. "No, you won't, you're staggering. And what happened to your eyes...? Let me help you." "Of course, this is what you do notice... I said no! I don't need your pity!" she spat at him and started to run. Bad idea. The neutrophil managed to catch her just in time before she could land on the ground. Against her will, he carried her once again in his arms, like a princess, while she was struggling to free herself. "Where's your apartment?" No answer. "As you wish. Then mine it is." "Two blocks from here, third floor. Just put me down, I want to walk on my own." "No." "Put me down! I told you I don't need your pity! I'm looking stupid enough as I am now, so put me down." "..." "Put me down! If you feel at least a bit, a tiny bit of affection towards me, then allow me to keep my last remaining dignity and leave me alone!" "And what if I don't feel a tiny bit of affection towards you?" he murmured, going upstairs. "..." The red blood cell's chest tightened at these words. "Tell me! What should I do if I don't feel a tiny bit of affection towards you? What should I do if you have me completely in your hands? If you're driving me crazy... from love? Do I still have to put you down? Let you alone in that condition? Well, I don't want to, I can't and I won't. So take out your keys, because I'm not going to leave, like it or not." "This is cruel, don't play with me... No need to play with my feel-..." AE was suddenly silenced when the neutrophil put her on her feet and started kissing her exactly like she had done it in the infirmary, pressing her against the apartment's door. At first, he was gentle and after this, without averting his gaze from her gorgeous golden eyes that were now smeared with mascara and eyeliner, began to bite her lips. "No, you are the cruel one here... You have entered my mind, started to possess my head, kissed me, driven me insane and in the end turned your back to me. This is really cruel. So open that door and start to take responsibility for what you did, if you don't want anyone to see us, of course." The red blood cell took out her keys from her pocket and managed to open the door with her trembling hands, not even knowing how. As soon as they passed the doorstep, the leukocyte took off her jacket and hat and started to continue where they had stopped at the infirmary. "Hakkekkyuu-san..." "Forget the 'san'..." Now it was him dominating the situation. He took her wrists, held them over her head, and started to draw sighs from her lips using kisses and licking her ear as she had done with him before. And as one of his hands moved under her black t-shirt, to feel her stomach, the lace of her bra, a soft and melodic moan escaped her when she felt him gently grabbing her breasts. "Ah, Aammm~ Ah! Sorry, it's a, a sensitive area, ah, Hakkekkyuu~" The neutrophil didn't listen to her, continuing to caress her breasts that were so soft and pleasant to the touch. Impossible to not try them, so he cut her bra open, removed it and started to enjoy, suckling one and keeping his hand on the other. "Hakkekkyuu! Aaammmg!~ I could've taken it off myself. Hey, aaah!~ Mmmm, aaah, slower~" "I'll buy you a new one, ten if you want, mmmm..." he exclaimed, leaving her breast in peace and returning to her mouth, roughly entering it and starting to explore its every corner, while she was fighting to not suffocate from pleasure. She scratched the sofa cover, trying to mitigate the endless pleasant sensations created by his caresses and bites, even though he was still only playing around, paying her back for what she had done to him in the infirmary. There was more to come, a lot more. "Sekkekkyuu, what I wanted to say to you in the infirmary..." "Aaammmg!~" "You're driving me insane, no clue what you did to me. But I like it... I like you, I need to love you, allow me to love you, Sekkekkyuu." "I'm sorry for how I treated you in the infirmary, Hakkekkyuu." "And I'm not." "Eh?" "It was necessary, otherwise I would still be imagining things in my head, instead of being with you for real." "...What kind of things?" she asked with curiosity. The neutrophil mentally slapped himself in the face. "You don't want to know that..." "I do." *** Breaking a kiss full of passion and being careful to not crush that precious muse that had taken possession of all his senses, the neutrophil got up to take off his cap and his jacket. Not looking away from his beautiful lover at any moment, because he simply couldn't; in a world of 37 trillion cells, this delivery girl was the only one able to satisfy his need for love. Neither of them had planned this, to start their relationship like that, but it just so happened, so there was no need to think too much about it. They loved each other, they wanted each other, and there was no crime in their actions. "You're so beautiful..." Just these words were enough to completely disarm her. She had waited for such a long time to hear something like that, and not from anybody, but only from him. Once she had been daydreaming during one of her breaks about her eternal savior rescuing her once again, discovering how much he loved her, confessing his feelings to her and then living happily ever after together... This was the bad thing about daydreaming: after imagining what could be, reality hurt even more than before. But now it was no innocent love-dream anymore, this was real. "Hakkekkyuu, let's go to the bedroom..." she invited him and got up from the sofa, but her beloved neutrophil stopped her. "Let me." He lifted her so gently into his arms that she felt her heart melting away any moment. She felt so tiny in his arms, his strong pale arms with scars from previous fights. During the short walk to her bedroom, she could perceive his breathing and heartbeat on her skin, while he was carrying her like a princess, his princess. Then he carefully placed her on her single bed and proceeded to undress her, while kissing her stomach, her chest, and her shoulders. The red blood cell, for her part, was caressing his back and neck, trying to free him from the inner part of his uniform, a kind of protective gear that was connected to the gadgets he needed to do his work. "Let me do this, Sekkekkyuu." He pressed two small buttons on his abdomen, and the gear widened enough to take it off. The now bare-chested neutrophil blushed as well when he noticed how she was enjoying the view. "I'll help you with this..." AE bent down dangerously close to him and began to carefully remove his belt, making him tremble. He could hold back, not say a word or avert his gaze, but his crotch wouldn't deceive anyone. It was too much, his impulses were out of control. "Come here." 1146 took the erythrocyte by the shoulders and laid her down on her side, so skillfully that the wound on her neck didn't touch the mattress. Then he got on top of her, without crushing her with his weight, and started to explore her body once again by licking and kissing. "Sweet... so sweet." The contact of his humid tongue made her shudder, and he knew it. He noticed it on her face, the goosebumps on her skin, and the way she arched her back and clutched the bedsheets. Knowing that he had now dominion over her, was turning him on even more. He would take his sweet time to pay her back for the torture in the infirmary. "Hakkekkyuu... ~" "You were very cruel to me, I think I've earned a compensation." "Huh? But, Hakkekkyuu..." "Do you have a clue how you left me in the infirmary?" "Uhm, I'm sorry?" "No, you're not... yet. My naughty girl." AE raised her eyebrows in surprise. There was a strange smile on his lips, an expression she had never seen on him before; a mix of lust, wickedness, and mischief. "What are you going to do to me?" she asked, slightly worried at the sight of him holding his belt in his hands. She could swear to have seen a fleeting spark in his visible eye while asking that question. "Punish you." "Eh? You're not going to hit me, are you? I won't do it again!" "What? Never in my life! I love you!" They both remained motionless for a while. The words "I love you" still managed to freeze them. "Uhmmm... and what about the belt, then?" "Hehe..." The leukocyte used the belt to tie up her wrists behind her back. "Hakkekkyuu, what are you...?" "I will show you how it feels like to be left with desire, Sekkekkyuu." Once again, he started to run his mouth over her body, starting with her décolleté and going to her stomach. Now the only piece of clothing left on his beloved erythrocyte were her black panties. He began to slowly pull them down and bite the relief of her now exposed hips, descending to the inner side of her thigh, while she was arching her back.  "Aaah~ Hakkekkyuu, I-I've already learned my lesson." "No, you didn't." "Mmmm, aaah~!" The red blood cell couldn't believe what was happening right now, what she was feeling and how he was able to make her shudder even without still having consummated the act itself. He was just playing around with her. Using his tongue to torture her. His indecent tongue was licking her humid opening, while she was trying to breathe normally, still with her hands tied up behind her back. And after long minutes of "torture", he finally left her crotch in peace and wiped his mouth with his forearm, watching AE tremble, pant and slowly lower her legs. A few seconds more and she would have surely reached her orgasm, but this was exactly the point: no letting her reach it yet. "Now you have taken revenge... ah, ah... Hakkekkyuu, will you untie me?" "Nope." "Eh? But you did get your revenge, didn't you?" "I have the entire day, Sekkekkyuu. Yes, but only for what you did today." "Today? Bu-But I've never done anything like this to you before." "Oh, really? Are you sure? Do you remember the day of the heat shock?" "But I didn't do anything." "Do you have any idea how torturous it was to see you like that? Without your jacket, sweating and with your t-shirt clinging to your body..." The red blood cell gulped. There were this strange spark in his eye and the lewd grin again. "And what do you have to say about the time we ended up in the washing station with your kohai?" "That was your fault, you drenched me with bacterial blood." "Because you were there, so beautiful... Alright, I'll let this one slide. But not when the cedar pollen arrived, and you came running up to me for protection, drenched in histamine, or in the bone marrow when you looked at me with that face... And when we both landed in the fibrin! These were the longest days of my life! You were literally glued to me!"  "This was the platelets' fault..." "I don't care, you did this to me, so you will pay for this," he replied and kissed his beloved Sekkekkyuu, moving his hand to her humid opening. "Mmmm, aaah~ Untie me... please." "I'll think about it." The neutrophil placed his forehead on top of hers. He could see her glassy eyes, feel her labored breathing, her messy hair that was shining with sweat, and her body heat while introducing his fingers inside her, stimulating her clitoris with his thumb. "Hakkekkyuu~ Ammmm... Ah, ah, Ha-Hakkekkyuu~ Hakkekkyuu." "Sekkekkyuu, Sekkekkyuu, do you see now what you did to me?" "Hakkekkyuu, please... kiss me, I don't want you to stop kissing me." That sweet request from the red blood cell, who was about to reach her climax, made the neutrophil smile. He fulfilled her wish and kissed her while taking his fingers out of her. It was starting to become torturous for him as well, he also needed to begin. "Come, I'll untie you." "Thanks," she replied, catching her breath. She was about to sit up and rest a bit, but his body on top of hers stopped her again. "You're forgiven." "Uhm, thanks?" "And now I will finally make you mine." The neutrophil removed his last piece of clothing, freeing his erection, and rubbed himself against her opening, drenching himself with her wetness. She was so sensitive from all that foreplay that this friction was enough to make her moan. "Mmm~ ah... ah... careful~ slowly." The leukocyte consummated their union with a sole thrust. He decided to just get it over with, to not cause her unnecessary pain. Then he froze, looking at the tears coming out of the young erythrocyte's eyes. The pressure inside her was a sign that she was in pain, but it couldn't be helped. "Hakkekkyuu..." "I'm sorry, I didn't want to hurt you." "Kiss me..." He felt a mental slap in the face. Even during such an intimate and hot moment, she still managed to melt his heart. "I love you, AE..." "You don't know how much I wanted to hear it, say it again." "I love you, AE, I love you..." "Hehe... Hakkekkyuu, I love you more!" She hugged the leukocyte, who was punching himself mentally for defiling the sweetest girl in the world. "I'm a dirty pervert... What am I doing here?!" "Hakkekkyuu..." "Yes?" She was covering her completely reddened face with her hand. "You can continue, it doesn't hurt anymore..." "... Okay, I will have enough time for apologies later." "And we have the whole day..." he said, continuing the swaying of their hips, increasing the rhythm and also the intensity with every minute. While enjoying the sight of her breasts moving to the beat of his thrusts and the heat and wetness of her insides enveloping his manhood. The hours passed, and after having reached the climax a few times together, they gave in to their fatigue. Two days have already passed since then, and, as if it was a game, the two workers continued living their lives as usually, with the only difference that the neutrophil was "kidnapping" her for a few minutes every time he saw the chance, to guide her to some empty room, duct, or hallway to kiss her or whisper some words of love into her ear, before thy both returned to their respective tasks. And when the workday was over, they met at her or his apartment. "Listen, 1146, we're going to the liver, to see strippers. Do you want to come along or are you afraid?" exclaimed 2048, accompanied by 2626. "Pfff, oh, this holier-than-thou will come, but to read them the riot act or the bible." "Pha, who wants to waste their time looking at naked women? Go and have fun, ladies," replied 1146, drying himself with a towel in order to return home. "Seriously? Pal, you don't know what you're going to miss out on, they're a feast for the eyes..." answered 2048. "Well, it must be great to see the naked body of a pretty woman, but do you know what's even greater?" asked 1146, awakening the curiosity of everyone, except for 4989, who already guessed what would come now. "What? What could be better than seeing a pretty and sexy woman without clothes?" inquired 2048. "Touching her, you loser. See you later, I have a beautiful woman waiting for me at home." The shocked 2048 and 2626 were looking after 1146's silhouette leaving the showers, while the young 4989 was having the last word, humming to himself: "Turn down for what~"
