"Heh~ I see you liked my special jello", said with a proud toothy grin the girl that came out of the bathroom, finishing drying her pink hair with a white towel and wearing a pair of comfortable black shorts and a white tank top.

"Mm?", replied the purple haired girl sitting on the couch with a small plate in hand where a multicolor kitty shaped jello rested now missing one ear as she glanced at the pink one to then shrug with a smile.

"I couldn't help it, like I've never had too much of a sweet tooth but your deserts are... I don't know... How can I say it...", Yuri explained while Natsuki approached and sat next to her on the couch.

"Irresistible, I know~", Natsuki said jokingly as she took the other ear of the cat jello and ate it herself, to then switch to a more comfortable position placing a cushion on one of the couch's arms and leaning there herself while resting and crossing her legs on Yuri's lap.

"What'cha watching?", Natsuki asked as she turned her head to the TV her girlfriend was watching while eating her dessert. "I was looking for something to watch and found this interview to Stephen King, you know, the famous horror author", Yuri replied.

"Oh yes, a very Yuri thing to watch", Natsuki joked and snorted while Yuri simple rolled her eyes and smiled. The pink one simply grabbed her phone she had previously left there on the couch and went on social media while Yuri continued to watch her show and eat her dessert.

Eventually, Yuri was done with Natsuki's special jello and put the plate on the small table before her, to then almost robotically began running her fingers across Natsuki's legs on her lap, back and forth from her shin to her thighs like if they were a cat she petted to relax herself.

...

"It's over now, come on, let's look for something to watch together", Yuri said after her interview show was over, patting Natsuki's thighs to get her attention. "Alright", Natsuki simply replied as she put her phone aside and switched her position.

The pink girl then moved her legs off her girlfriend's lap only to shift her body towards her, laying on her side now and resting her head on Yuri's lap, while Yuri began running her hands through her still slightly fresh pink hair from that shower she took minutes ago.

While Natsuki changed the channel over and over again trying to find some anime to watch using her right hand, she trapped Yuri's right hand on her head and moved it to her stomach to then start rubbing her forearm tenderly with her thumb.

The purple girl blushed lightly and smiled warmly at the gesture and after planting a soft kiss on her girlfriend's temple in gratitude, she continued to caress her pink hair with her left hand waiting for her to choose something to watch.

"Eh?", Natsuki suddenly said after changing the channel a few more times and having to quickly go back to one she just passed, where the very brief glimpse of a middle age man of dark gray hair and beard immediately rang inside her mind.

"Isn't that...", Yuri said with a confused expression as she too recognized the man in the picture shown next to a fairly good looking woman of red suit and blond hair speaking to the audience while sitting behind a crystal desk.

...after he tried to break in the cellblock that keeps the prisoners under custody awaiting a judgement, fortunately, the security personnel stopped him in time before he could succeed.

What's more surprising however, is that he worked for the police themselves. Detective Seishu Date has now been locked in a separated cellblock due to him deliberately pulling out his gun and aiming it at one of the prisoners.

The security guard patrolling the area luckily saw him when he was passing by while patrolling the area and stopped him, however, it is reported that Detective Date did fire his gun while trying to break free and although the bullet fortunately just hit the floor, it did prompt the rest of the security personnel to come and submit him before the issue could escalate to anything worse.

The latest reports indicate Detective Date had been acting strange the last two weeks and many of his co-workers agree if not all, that he seemed like a completely different person, the most common description of his recent behavior make use of the words paranoid, stressed looking and bad mood.

We will continue to address this case as soon as our corresponsal now waiting outside the Police station can get more information about the Detective's situation and what exactly prompted him to act like that...

"To think that was the man that interviewed us just two weeks ago...", Natsuki said disturbed. "So he tried to deliberately murder one of the prisoners...", Yuri said just as disturbed.

"What could've happened to him that made him do that? He seemed like a nice guy", Natsuki asked concerned. "Who knows... Maybe he had a grudge against one of those prisoners?", Yuri asked.

"It could be but why not like, wait for him to be judged at least? I mean they had him caught...", Natsuki asked. "Maybe he knew he would get away with the judgement by buying the judge or something like that?", Yuri suggested.

"Heh... You read too much dark stuff...", Natsuki said glancing at her from her lap. "It does happen in real life though...", Yuri smiled awkwardly.

"Yeah but in places like America or any of those other countries in that continent...", Natsuki said. "Here too, people with great economical power can do that anywhere really", Yuri replied.

"You know what, no more TV or books for you today missy, come on", Natsuki said as she suddenly got up and turned off the TV. "Eh? Where?", Yuri asked as she saw her girlfriend heading to the apartment's front door.

"To take a stroll or something, I need some fresh air", Natsuki said as she put on her hoodie and shoes and grabbed her keys. "You just took a shower, it could be bad for you health", Yuri said as she hurried after her, rushing to put on her shoes as well while Natsuki was already unlocking the door.

"Leave your mommy mode for bed, Yuri", Natsuki said as she opened the door and got out. "N-Natsuki!", Yuri blushed madly as she followed her while the pink girl just snorted at her girlfriend's ever so flustered reaction.

===================

"You know, I once had the illusion of having a girlfriend that would do this with me, but...", Natsuki paused a bit, both now taking a stroll around the park near Natsuki's home, the dim orange light the imminent sunset casted upon them being their only companion, all while the shorter girl walked clinged to her taller girlfriend's arm resting her head on her shoulder.

"I eventually gave up because I accepted I was too freaking short for anyone to cling to my arm like this haha...", Natsuki sighed and then finished saying, "but this is actually much better if you ask me".

Yuri simply giggled and rubbed Natsuki's cheek with her thumb, but the pink girl tried to bite it, which prompted her girlfriend to exclaim, "sorry!".

"Relax, I'm just messing with you, dummy!", Natsuki chuckled and squeezed Yuri's arm gently against her body which never failed to ruffle the butterflies in her stomach to then just sigh with a smile and say, "sorry...".

"Of course you'd say that...", Natsuki chuckled again and Yuri soon joined her while they kept walking with a calm that seemed as if everything in the world was right.

"The park surely is lonely at this hour...", Yuri commented after thinking about the only people she had seen so far was an old lady a while ago feeding the birds and another couple going in the opposite direction of them a bit ago.

"Must be because it's Saturday and the sun is about to set, I don't know... Hey, look", Natsuki said as a tree full of yellowish leafs and that granted a wide and great looking shadow worthy of sitting on for a Sunday morning picnic caught her attention.

"What's up?", Yuri asked curious but Natsuki simply dragged her there by her hand as she stopped wrapping both arms around hers. "I think this place would be nice to come and relax sometime, the sun wouldn't bother us here", Natsuki flashed her fang with a smile.

"You're right, we could come here and read something together, cuddle on the grass or just lay there and close our eyes while we hold each other's hand...", Yuri certainly began to imagine the possibilities. "Geez, I unleashed the cheesy monster", Natsuki giggled while Yuri simply blushed lightly and shrugged.

The pink girl then had a sudden urge and an idea to attend it as she looked around discreetly to ensure the safety of her next actions and then say, "hey, babe".

"Mm? -!", Yuri mumbled tilting her head towards her but then, Natsuki almost ragdolled her as she grabbed her by the waist and pushed her against the tree with great yet gentle force that didn't want to hurt her one bit.

"There's no people around and I'm craving something~", Natsuki whispered with a voice that sent shivers down Yuri's spine, the good kind though, to then get on her tip toes and grab her girlfriend's pretty face between her hands.

"All yours~", Yuri smiled happy as she pulled Natsuki's hood over her head, now showing off those cute cat ears it had and that she secretly liked so much, while Natsuki simply smiled back at her and finally satisfy her urge afterwards.

Natsuki slowly rubbed the her lips against Yuri's before fully locking in the kiss, feeling the warm breaths of each other on them as they slowly closed their eyes and finally, after a few seconds that always felt so slow and yet so fast, they pressed their lips against each other while their heartbeats accelerated and their bodies got full of that so welcomed warmth.

Eventually, they both needed to catch their breaths and with great coordination worth of a couple that new each other so well, both pulled their mouths away from each other's, panting lightly and smiling while looking into each other's loving eyes, which could only make the purple one feel the need of saying one thing, "I love y-!".

Yuri had began to say, however and to Natsuki's concern and curiosity alike, she cut herself off just one word away as her violet eyes suddenly caught something in front of them in the distance.

There, around 25 feet away, was a tree the on going fall season had taken it's toll on as the bare branches on its head showed, aside from a very few that still held some yellow and cracky leafs.

And behind that tree, was a man.

Yuri could easily recognize it was a man, one around his forties, by the rough features of his tired face and the wide forehead that showed his hair had began to abandon him.

The purple one now got the bad kind of chills running down her spine as she could clearly see that man right there had been watching them for God knows how long, since he was only peeking his head and thin fraction of his body behind the bare tree and looking in their direction.

"What's wrong? ...your cheeks got real cold...", Natsuki asked concerned as the previous warmth her girlfriend's face transmitted had gone in mere seconds. "I-I forgot I left something on the stove! W-We have to go home now and quick!", Yuri shook her head and tried to put her best awkward smile.

There was a reason for Yuri's words.

She knew if she told her feisty girlfriend the truth, Natsuki would undoubtedly go and confront that strange man but it was precisely that what the purple feared.

With practically no one else around, who knows what that man was really capable of. She didn't know his motives but she could think of a hundred reasons that were driving him to act like that and not one of them was good.

"Did you serio-! Woah! Take it easy!", Natsuki exclaimed as Yuri grabbed her hand started to walk insanely fast but still, not exactly running, dragging her back from where they came.

"What did you leave on the stove?! The apartment could be on fire now!", Natsuki scolded as she soon adapted to Yuri's pace. "S-S-Some water t-to make some tea...", Yuri managed to reply as she discreetly kept glancing behind her shoulder.

...

But soon enough, both caught up with the couple they had seen before and from there, exiting the park turned out easier and much more calming after Yuri wouldn't see that creepy man again.

"Hey, weren't we on a hurry or something?", Natsuki asked confused after as soon as they got out to the main street with a fair number people coming and going, the purple girl slowed her pace back to normal. "I-I just remembered I did turn off the fire, the water must have got cold by now though...", Yuri shrugged with a greatly awkward smile.

"You made me sweat a bit... And I already had taken shower...", Natsuki sighed annoyed. "I-I'm sorry... I can wash you up if you want though~", Yuri joked to help her disturbed heart calm down.

"Wait, was that your plan all along??", Natsuki asked feisty and surprised. "Maybe it was... Maybe it wasn't~", Yuri giggled as she swung Natsuki's hand back and forth as they walked.

==================

As both reached the entrance of the apartment complex, the purple girl took one last glance behind her shoulder and smiled relived after seeing no strange man was around after all.

"What do you want for dinner, babe?", Natsuki asked as they calmly headed to the stairs. "Mmm? I don't know, anything will be delicious as long as you are the one who cooks it~", Yuri smiled sweetly.

"That doesn't help me at all you- JESUS CHRIST!!", but as the pink girl placed one hand on the guardrail to start going upstairs and back to coziness of their home, the sudden fall of an object around the size of a person next to her startled her like hell.

The eerie sound of decens of bones cracking and the disturbing sound of flesh against concrete, after all, let both girls know that it was indeed a person what, or rather, who fell from somewhere above and that now laid in an impossible angle under a growing red puddle.
