Tatsuko grabs me and hugs me tightly again. I pick her up so I can stare at her, straight in the eyes. Of course, she can't see mine. She wraps her legs around my waist and cuddles into my neck. I kiss the top of her head and start walking home with her in my arms. My bugs start buzzing around in me, reacting to my insane emotions. She lifts her head up and places her lips on mine once more. I kiss back and she deepens it, only a bit though before she pulls away. I crave more but I bring her home. We walk in a comfortable silence the entire way until we arrive at my house. I have kikaichu open the door and am careful to avoid my father, as I don't want him commenting on our state right now.

I send out a few beetles to open her bedroom door as we walk into her room. I place her down on the bed and grab the remote and turn the TV on. I lie down next to her. "According to all known laws of aviation, a bee shouldn't be able to fly..." Tatsuko cuddles into my chest. I remember that she's in my clothes. I say, "Tatsuko, I'll be right back I need to get changed."

She nods and says, "Don't think I forgot, you still owe me. I didn't see your dick."

I sigh and say, "You saw my cum though."

She says, "Not enough."

I sigh. She can be so difficult sometimes. "Not now, Tat. I'll show you when I get hard, ok?" She nods. I go to my room and put on my comfortable black muscle shirt and my green pajama pants. I go back into Tatsuko's room. She's curled up on the bed still in my clothes. She looks up at me and pats the spot next to her. I smile and go up to the bed. I get under the covers and say, "Come here." She complies and lies down next to me.

She cuddles into my chest again and turns her head to watch the movie. I shift into her, trying to get our bodies as close as possible to each other. I wrap my arms and leg around her.

We continue watching the movie like that until we're about 30 minutes in. She looks at me and notices the many scars I have on my body. I look down at her as she touches one of them on my collarbone. I shudder at the feeling. She asks, "Did the bugs do this to you?"

I say, "Yes, but it's not their fault. Don't be mad at them for hurting me. They do a lot more good for me than they do bad." I look at her and she nods but still looks remorseful.

She says, "Does it hurt?" I say, "When I was a young boy-" she cuts me off, "MY FATHER TOOK ME INTO THE CITY!" I sing with her, "To see a marching band, he said son when you grow up, would you be the savior of the broken, the beaten and the damned. He said will you defeat them your demons and all the non-believers, the plans that they have made..."

We continue to sing together until the song is over. I kiss her and she kisses back. She says, "Continue what you were saying."

I say, "When I was little, it was excruciating pain. They had to create their burrows inside me and it was torture. I've gotten used to the pain. Now, I realize how worth it it was. Besides you, they're the only friends I've ever had, which is why I'm eternally grateful to you for being here for me."

She starts kissing some of my scars on my collarbone and neck. When she gets to a certain spot I can't stop a moan from escaping my lips. She says, "Does that feel good?" I blush and nod slightly. She attacks that spot, kissing it. She starts sucking on it and I whimper slightly. It feels really fucking good. She then bites on it causing me to gasp and flicks her tongue across the area. I let out a deep moan at this. She continues rotating between kissing, sucking and biting and licking.

Before I get hard again I pull her off me. She whimpers a bit. I crash my lips onto hers once more and immediately pull away, afraid of how she'll react. She puts her hands on my cheeks and kisses me again. I blush and pull her into my chest again, still spooning her. She says, "Shino, you're warm." I chuckle and kiss the top of her head. She pulls herself closer to me. Now, there's barely a part of our bodies that isn't touching.

We continue watching the movie just like that, in silence until it's over. As the credits start to roll she turns to me and says with tears rolling down her face, "T-That was so good! C-Can we watch A bugs' life n-next?" I nod and get the movie and put it in its place and lie down next to her in the same positions as before, not questioning her mood swings.

I hug her close. I hate seeing her cry. I look down at her and wipe the almost dried tears off her face. I kiss her cheek.

"Stop doing that!" Tat said, moving away from me with a frown on her face, no longer crying. I sigh. She looks back to the movie and starts giggling.

"It's so-" She cuts herself off with another giggle "funny!" She comes into my arms and I put my leg around her once more. I sigh again and decide to tell her another sad story about when I was little to see if she'll be affected by it .

I say, "When I was little, nobody ever liked me. They all called me creepy, bug freak, bug nerd, bug boy and such. They wouldn't talk to me. It caused me to be introverted completely. I now have basically no confidence at all, besides when it comes to fighting. I mean, I've never been this close to someone ever before. It means a lot that you'd even want to be here with me. I don't really want to leave this position. Finally, having someone with me, feeling body heat. People take it for granted but having my insects as my only friends for years makes me realize how amazing it is to be in the presence of a human. Especially you, Tatsuko. I've grown very fond of you. Maybe it's because you're the only person who's ever showed me any affection. Maybe it's something else, I'm not really sure. I just don't want you to leave me, which is why when you stormed out earlier I didn't waste a moment before going after you. Tatsuko, please don't leave me."

A tear runs down Tatsuko's face and she bursts into sobs. "Shino! I won't leave you! Ever!" She throws her arms around me and sobs into my shoulder.

"Hey! It's ok, you don't have to cry!" I say, rubbing her back. I continue, "It's been like this for my entire life. It's just started to get better because of you. You don't need to cry for me." She cuddles me even closer than before, if it was even possible.

"But I do! You're my bwest fwiend in the world!" She said sleepily, as if her mood swings and period made her extremely tired.

I say, "You don't know how much that means to me. Nobody's ever called me that before."

"Really?" Tat asked, her dark eyes looking up into my glasses.

"Yes. You're the first person, besides my father obviously who has ever shown that they care."

"That's... nice..." Tat said, slurring her words as she was half asleep by now.

I bring her face up to mine and kiss her passionately. Tat breaks away from the kiss and says, "No... kwisses..." She rests her head on my chest then falls asleep curled up against me. I've finally realized my feelings for Tatsuko. I love her.

I turn the TV off and smile down at her small body running my hands gently through her soft hair, trying not to wake her. After about thirty minutes of me doing that, I also fall asleep, hugging her.
