Chapter Two
Puurfection Gone Wild
To my lovely readers, thank you so much for your feedback on the first Chasing Tail. This story is written from a new, female character's perspective but I am working on continuing with the characters from chapter one. Apologies for the wait between chapters, comments are welcome and encouraged! Below is a short summary so you may discover if this story is relevant to your interests:
Aiko Hatsumi is a kind natured sweet heart who never gets into trouble and is instantly liked by everyone she meets. She's never considered having any kind of relationship because she's so happy with her current life style. Although she has many admirers none desire her as much as Makoto Kotarou who has coveted Aiko since he met her. One night, Aiko starts to feel very strange. Her entire persona becomes much more catlike and suddenly she's craving the love and attention of Makoto. However, what starts out as feelings of harmless love quickly turn into feline lust.
********************
Whilst most girls my age were trying to hold down a relationship at university, I preferred holding down a job. I worked in an adorable bakery of a weekend where I baked sweets I'd learnt how to make as a child. It turned out people just went crazy over my carrot cake and raspberry muffins and, before long, word got out that I worked the weekends. I got to meet all kinds of people; actually, that job was how I met most of my friends from uni.
I remember one guy who came in called Makoto Kotarou. He was very likeable and would often return with these huge orders. Eventually he confessed to me that he'd made all these excuses to come see me and that his roommates has all complained they were getting fat so they'd sent him to 'finally just ask me out'.
Please, don't get me wrong, Makoto was the loveliest guy I knew but I was so happy with the way my life was going I didn't want to risk messing things up; so I turned him down. I think I made him very sad but he kept coming to see me anyway which always made me smile. But this isn't the story of how I broke Makoto's heart, quite the contrary actually...
It was another Saturday and I felt sunny and ready to tackle work with a smile - that was until I reached my front door. I felt like I'd been punched in the stomach. My skin was prickly like hedgehog quills, my heart raced in a flurry of desperation and, all at once, I was overwhelmed by the need to lie down.
I spread my body across my bed, wriggling and stretching in a bid for comfort. Nestling in the fabric I contemplated phoning in sick but found I was quite unable to tear myself away from such warmth. I slid out of my summer dress and lay there in my white cotton bra and panties, entirely satisfied. Everything remained just peachy for a good three hours. Upon any attempt to move I would be overcome by fatigue and, strangely, the need to drink milk. I didn't even like milk. Finally, I hoisted myself upright and sense required me to survey myself in the mirror.
My eyes danced over the reflection of my body. Instead of concentrating on my long, flaming red hair or deep brown eyes I peered at my, scantily clad, figure. It was a smooth accumulation of gentle curves combined with a tight waist and a soft neckline. My breasts felt even more enormous yet I was no longer self conscious, I almost wished they'd burst out of my bra so I could show everyone.
This was so unlike me. Often, modesty would dominate my psyche. I was the girl with E-cup breasts and killer curves who wore knee length skirts and high collar shirts. Suddenly I wanted to just stand there naked and proud.
These new concepts made me feel alone and unsure. One thing I did know was that I wanted to share my new self with someone – anyone. But who did I have to confide in? Although I had friends I was hardly close with any of them and this need for comfort was turning into a fleeting desire to be touched. I required affection.
The clock read 4 O'clock. Had it really been six hours since I was due in? I wondered if anyone would notice if I went out in my underwear...of course they would. I was losing all rationale and considering that this was, perhaps, a dream. My roommate returned during my contemplation and I felt exceedingly happy to see her. I went for a hug, which turned more into a dive, and we ended up tumbling to the floor.
Baring in mind that I was still in my underwear, this act of friendliness was not received well. "Fuck, Aiko what was that? Why aren't you at work?" Michiru growled at me. She continued to scold and lecture me covering the topic of my partial nudity and various other issues of which I cared little about. All this time I was staring at her hands.
Normally, Michiru and I got on well. She was a bit more of an extrovert than myself and would occasionally come home rather merry from a night out. One time she revealed to me that she loved it when a partner played with her hands. Be it a light tickling or full on suckling on her fingers it'd turn her into a purring kitten. I wanted purring kitten to play with.
