Moth to a Flame

[BlackAkuma]

Ugh, Yo-Yo was nervous, so damn nervous, why was she so fucking nervous? It was just a date, she’d had dates before. Maybe not with someone this hot or absolutely loaded, but that shouldn’t make a difference, shouldn’t throw her off her game. Cleo was just a human.

A human with thick lips, smooth hips, glowing eyes, a winning smile, and that hair…

Staring. Yo-Yo was staring. She needed to stop staring.

She snapped out of it came back to reality, just long enough to process what her hostess was saying. Was she offering to train her? She could really use it, and it wasn’t like Aaliyah was all that interested in showing her stuff. Most of the time, she would just yell at her and tell her what to do every day, acting like she was her mother, not her cousin. Kind of tiring, if she was being honest.

At the mention of her…mhmmm…wonderfully long legs, Yo-Yo reached down and gave her thighs a reflexive rub, before she sheepishly reached down to rub her thighs. ”Umm…thanks. Your legs are pretty nice, too. And I’d like that, training together. Would be really helpful, honestly.” She was quick to perk up and raised a finger. ”Not I’m, like, desperate for it, or anything. I do fine in the ring, but there’s no shame in, you know…diversifying, I guess. Right?

Of course Cleo noticed the way that Yo-yo was staring at her, it was hard not too, but Cleo was used to such stares, and in fact she welcomed them. It was part of what drove her to compete in the types of competitions that she did, and in a date especially it was rather validating to have the one you were trying to woo be staring in utter awe and adoration.

So Cleo allowed it without interruption and just smiled and nodded at what Yo-yo said about training. "Oh I'm sure but as you said a little diversifying can go a long way. Who knows maybe after training with me you'll even be able to bear you're cousin in a match." Cleo mentioned off offhandedly with a small smile on her face, not knowing or caring how her date would interpret that little declaration.

That one got a laugh out of Yo-Yo.

She tried to stifle it, but it came out way too quick. She liked to hype herself up, sure, but even she wasn’t so big on herself to think she could beat Aaliyah in a match. They’d playfought all the time at family reunions, and her cousin always took her easy. She was older, smarter, stronger…better. Yo-Yo didn't like that fact, but that was the fact.

”Look, I appreciate the vote of confidence, but, I mean…” She shook her head. ”You’re good, great, you beat Aali, don’t get me wrong. But just ‘cause you did, don’t mean I can, right? That ain’t my level.”

Cleo noticed the barely stifled laugh from her date, no doubt a result of her own perceived inferiority to her older cousin. However as brief as it was Cleo did notice the brief moment of resentment that flashed in her eyes as well. "Well we can always put that to the test later on, but in the meantime I say we enjoy each others time, and ah perfect time the waiter." Cleo said as the waiter approached to take their orders to which Cleo ordered "Yes we'll have the wagyu beef mini gyoza and edamame appetizers to share, and if my date is also ready to order, I'll take the omakase sushi dinner please." Cleo said in a refined, confident tone that showed she knew what she wanted well in advance and the menus were purely a formality for her.

[BlackAkuma]

Yo-Yo only understood about 25% of what Cleo had just said, and none of the important parts. She had no idea what wagyu beef was, what gyoza was, or what was ‘mini’ about it. It all sounded expensive, she knew that much, but she assumed this was all on Cleo’s dime. It damn sure wasn’t on hers.

Decision time.

”Uh, I’ll have the, uh…” Fuck, how do you pronouce that? ”The bas…basa…”

The waiter seemed to grow tired of having his language butchered and spoke up. ”Basashi.”

Yo-Yo snapped her finger and returned to that menu. ”Yeah, that. And the fugu. The fugu fish sounds nice.”

The waiter looked at her like she was insane for a few moments, then shrugged and jotted down the order, before bowing and stepping off.

Cleo would chuckle slightly as she saw the absolutely dazed look on Yo-yo's face as Cleo made her own order. Made sense, the girl didn't exactly seem like the type to have much of a handle on this type of cuisine but Cleo found it cute.

Though that being said as Yo-yo began making her order Cleo's eyes would widen slightly at her choice of options, not only the Basashi but also her follow up fugu order that also had the waiter's eyes widen in shock. Once he left Cleo couldn't help but let out an outward giggle.

"Well now you're far bolder than I initially thought, but I quite like someone so... adventurous." Cleo said with a flirty smile and wink directed at Yo-yo.

[BlackAkuma]

…did Yo-Yo do something wrong? She’d never heard of a fugu fish before, but she figured it couldn't be that big of a deal with a silly name like that. And it was fucking expensive, so that meant it had to taste good. Made sense to her.

Whatever the case, it seemed like her choice impressed Cleo enough, so that helped her calm down, just a touch. ”Yeah, I can be pretty…’adventerous’, when I need to be.” She allowed more of her natural smile to come out. Cleo had the most beautiful eyes.

She let a silence reign between them for a moment, a little staring, before she propped her elbow up on the table and leaned in. ”So, sell me on it. You say you could show me a few things…things like what? If you and me were having a wrestling match, right now, how would you take me on?” She let her legs swing out, her feet occasionally brushing against Cleo’s thigh—little touches.

Cleo was fairly sure that Yo-yo had no idea what she ordered, but that was fine, it would just make it all the more entertaining when she found out what it was that she had asked for. That being said though Cleo's attention would soon be directed to Yo-yo fully.

"Hehe I see. Well that's a good quality to have, especially in our line of work." Cleo said with a light tone in her voice before a brief silence took hold, filled with Cleo tilting back and finishing her drink, putting the glass down just as Yo-yo asked what Cleo would do to Yo-yo in a match to sell her on showing her a thing or two. All while lightly teasing Cleo's legs with her feet which only made the beauty smirk in response.

"Oh. I think I'd start with my legs. It is the center of point of my style." Cleo said and as she spoke she would elegantly raise her own leg, having it meet with Yo-yo's and start to play footsie with her under the table.

"Throw some kicks you're way, targeting you're own legs before switching to some leg based slams and submission to really...mhmm tear you apart. All while using some... sensual moves to keep you nice and distracted." Cleo said while leaning forward on her elbows and bridged fingers under her chin with a flirtatious grin on her face.

[BlackAkuma]

Yo-Yo was sort of new to the whole…foreplay thing. Not that she’d never had sex or dates or anything like this, but this whole song and dance, this act where you spoke in circles and acted like things were normal, it was all uncharted territory. The best she could think to do was pretend she was a sex vamp in a movie. Ham it up.

It was working, so far. At least, it wasn’t not working. Cleo seemed to be into it, if the sensation on her legs was anything to go by. Yo-Yo bit her lip, suppressing a moan as the woman’s more experienced touch lit her on fire. She squirmed in the chair and stretched out, giving her more access to her lower body.

”Sensual moves.” She almost whispered the word, like it was some great secret. ”I’ve been thinking about getting into that kind of thing, you know. Looks…looks fun.” It looked a hell of a lot more than fun, but she didn’t want to come off like the complete neophyte she was.

”Aaliyah’s not too hot on it, though. Family doesn’t want us getting into it.” She scratched her head and shrugged it off. “I mean, I guess, I don’t need her for it, but…”

[Bare]

Oh yes Cleo could tell that her teasing was having the effect that she was wanting it too given that Yo-yo was now offering up even more leg for Cleo to start sliding her feet higher and higher against.

"Oh hehe trust me it is." Cleo said with a wink at her date when she mentioned she'd been thinking about getting into such competition on LAW. However Yo-yo mentioned how her cousin wasn't into it nor did their family want them getting into it to which Cleo would simply blow a puff of air.

"Who cares? It's your career. Your life. If you want to try it then that's you're business to hell with them." Cleo said surprisingly impassioned, more than she meant at least which Cleo quickly reigned in before smiling again. "If nothing else let me be the judge of that. I certainly think you have the body for it at least." Cleo said with another flirtatious grin on her face.
