The Return of Kyoko ⋇ An Erotic Horror Story, Part #23

Josh was happily surprised to see Kyoko in class on Monday. She’d been absent for the past two weeks. But Josh hadn’t forgotten about her. Not even with what Hiroshi said. Not even with the rumors spreading that Kyoko had been held in jail and questioned about her ex-boyfriend.

She was back in her usual seat in the front row, and the other students had avoided sitting by her as before. She took one commanding look at Josh as he walked in, and it was enough to make him cast aside whatever small doubts he had about getting too close. Without speaking, she invited him to sit down beside her.

“Hi, er, glad you are back,” Josh stammered.

There was hushed chatter around them. Josh could feel the eyes of others casting their suspicious sights on him and her, gleaning any interesting tidbit they could mine for scandalous news about Kyoko and the boy they assumed to be her newest victim.

Kyoko put her hand on Josh’s thigh and rubbed it. She relished being the vector of fevered gossip.

“Where were you?” Josh asked.

“Working at a rope bar tying up boys,” she said.

“Really???” Kyoko observed a bulge developing in his pants.

“No. Don’t believe the rumors. Sure, I do have to take care of myself. But I wouldn’t take money to do that.” (*I’d do it for free!*) “Actually, I was scouting locations for our short film.”

Oh, yeah, the first project of the year.

“Locations? But it’s just a short film.”

“You want to do it well, don’t you?”

“I already got started doing a project with Mina and Hiroshi. Since you weren’t here…”

“You agreed to do it with me!”

“I did? Oh, I mean, I guess I did, but…”

“Tell them you’re doing it with me. Forget about them.”

“Yes, Kyoko.”

Kyoko patted him on the head.

“So we’re filming on a special location?”

“I found just the right cabin in the woods for our film.”

“Oh, really? What’s it about? A vacation film?” Josh was truly curious. He wanted to see the Japanese countryside while he was here. And he couldn’t help but wonder why so much effort was needed for a project that was only 20% of their grade.

“No.”

“A survival film? Like Call of the Wild?”

“You could say it’s a kind of survival film.”
