Another AU TRC RP.....but this one isn't set in modern times.....it's really set in Ancient Japan, where Kurogane comes from. Coming home after a night of drinking at the local tavern.....Kurogane meets a blonde man who introduces himself as Fai D Flowright, a sprite. Next morning, Kurogane dismisses it as a figment of his drunken imagination, but then he meets Fai again.....
The only thing is, Ashura has ruled that none of his sprites are allowed to leave the Fairy World to enter the Mortal World unless it is to cause harm to someone.....and he's a very jealous man.......
Kurogane - Ruby Chan
Fai - Sakaki
Ashura - Pikari
Tomoyo - Fai

((OOC: Let the Rp begin! At least, until we need a character that we don't have. :sweatdrop: ))
Kurogane stumbled slightly as he strode down the muddy track towards the palace, cursing the rock that had dared to lie in his way. He was on his way back from the local tavern, and whilst Kurogane was usually able to hold his alcohol, tonight he had outdone even himself, downing bottle after bottle, to the amazement of his fellow drinkers.
However, he was sober enough to realise that unless he made it back to the palace on time tonight, Tomoyo would ban him from the visits to the tavern that she'd so 'kindly' allowed him to have. Kurogane shuddered at the thought of staying in at night drinking with Tomoyo and Souma - the strongest drink they ever drunk was wine, and Kurogane hated the stuff.
Muttering something about evil rocks, Kurogane almost didn't notice the blonde man standing at the side of the road. However, he sensed that he was being watched, and that was enough for him to pay attention to his surroundigns, frowning as he gazed into the blue eyes of the person who was watching him so curiously.
"Who the hell are you?!" He growled, his words slurring ever so slightly.
-
Fai watched the human curiously, with his blonde head tilted to one side and bright blue eyes shining in the darkness, as the dark haired man grumpily made his way down the muddy road, not at first noticing Fai as he stood leaning against the side of an old, wooden fence that separated the fields from the road.
"Who the hell are you?!"
Fai flinched slightly at the large man's harsh words, but his curiosity winning out over hesitation, the slender man hopped up, sitting atop the fence and speaking, now with an amused grin playing across his fair features, and a lock of blonde hair falling across his eyes. "I'm Fai... Fai D. Flowright..sprite...at your service," He bowed slightly from where he sat, blinking shyly at the man, "And who are you, and why are you stumbling? Are you hurt?" He asked back innocently, blue eyes suddenly wide and concerned.
-
"I'm Fai... Fai D. Flowright..sprite...at your service,"
"And who are you, and why are you stumbling? Are you hurt?"
Kurogane swayed slightly as he stood still, crimson eyes narrowed at the blonde's announcement and question.
"Sprite? Sprite my foot. Either I'm more drunk than I thought, or you're some stupid make-believer. Sprites aren't real...I haven't believed in the old wives tales since I was a kid." He snorted, staring disdainfully at Fai.
"And I'm not hurt, you baka! Haven't you ever seen someone tipsy before?" He sneered harshly.
-
"Haven't you ever seen someone tipsy before?"
"Tipsy?" The blonde asked, a slightly confused look in his blue eyes.
Then after pausing for a moment, Fai hopped down from the fence and walked cautiously towards the swaying man, ignoring everything he’d ever been warned about getting too close to humans, as he slowly circled around him, interested...
“You didn't tell me your name. I told you mine, you have to tell me yours. It's only polite, ne?" The blonde asked, smiling up at the dark haired man, while staying just out of his reach.
-
Kurogane blinked in mild confusion as the blonde....or Fai, whatever his name was.....began to circle him. Most people would have got the hint by now and left him alone....so what was with this stubborn fool?! Maybe if he told him his name he'd go away?
"Kurogane. Just Kurogane - I have no last name." He finally growled, beginning to feel just the slightest bit on edge around the man. For some reason, Fai reminded him of those vultures he saw hovering over battlefields, and that would mean that Kurogane was the...brrrrr.
"Anyway....." He said slowly, a grin spreading over his face. "You can't be a sprite......because all they are meant to do is cause trouble, according to the old tales." He finished triumphantly, sure that he'd proven his point.
-
Fai smiled back brightly at Kurogane's grin, "Hmm, how about if I call you Kuro-pon? Or Kuro-chan? Or maybe Kuro-mu would be best?" He asked laughing, still slowly circling around the man, who appeared to be getting dizzier as he followed Fai with his eyes.
"And who says I'm not causing trouble, ne?" Fai asked, suddenly stopping, and giggling while watching Kurogane's eyes try to focus on him... and forgetting suddenly, in his fun, to keep his distance from the human man, Fai reached up and touched Kurogane's dark, spiky hair... ruffling it gently...
-
Instantly, Kurogane's hand was holding Fai's wrist, gripping it to the point of pain. He could hear the bones of the blonde's fragile wrist creaking under his grasp, but didn't loosen his hold, instead tightening it.
"Kurogane. Not Kuro-pon, Kuro-chan, or Kuro-mu. Kurogane." He said in a soft, deadly voice. He could see Fai wincing, but didn't really care about that. He was a samurai...he didn't care about things like that.
"And who gave you permission to touch my hair?" He continued angrily.
-
The blonde's blue eyes opened wide as the man suddenly grabbed his slender wrist painfully in his strong grip, and Fai froze, unable to pull away... remembering now, all he'd been warned about humans...especially male humans...
"Gomen ne, Kurogane," He whispered quietly, beginning to tremble as the large man continued to hold tightly to him... "They warned me I'd be hurt if I came here, if I got caught by a human," Fai murmured softly, staring up with his large, blue eyes.
-
"Gomen ne, Kurogane. They warned me I'd be hurt if I came here, if I got caught by a human,"
Kurogane paused at the words, studying the blue eyes and finding, to his surprise, not just fear there.....but something almost akin to terror, as if Kurogane was some huge monster out of a nightmare. And Fai was actually trembling too....he could feel the tremors vibrating right through his hand and up his arm.....
Sighing, Kurogane released Fai, stepping back to give the blonde some room.
"Look, I'm sorry, alright? I've got a short enough temper anyway, let alone when I'm a bit worse the wear......" He muttered, feeling unexplainably guilty for his actions.
-
Fai's eyes grew shiny with fear, as he waited for the human man to do all the horrible things to him that he'd been told would happen if he got caught... but then Kurogane let go...actually apologizing for hurting him, and stepping back.
"Are you sure you are a human?" Fai asked softly, his eyes reflecting the amazement he felt at surviving his brush with the man. His wrist was bruised and hurting, but he felt a happiness at the fact... they for once, had been wrong, or perhaps this man was just different...
-
"Are you sure you are a human?"
Kurogane snorted at the question.
"Idiot. Of course I'm human. Are you always this naive, or...." His voice trailed off, and he did a double take, staring at Fai.
"You really are a sprite, aren't you?" He whispered hoarsely, never taking his eyes off the blonde.
-
"You really are a sprite, aren't you?"
"Of course I am... told you so, didn't I?" Fai smiled once again, reminding himself this time not to touch the man. He didn't move away, however, figuring if Kurogane was going to hurt him, he wouldn't have let him go in the first place.
The blonde gazed up into Kurogane's crimson colored eyes seriously, "Are you still that one thing... tipsy?" He asked curiously, "How did you get that way?"
-
Kurogane could almost feel his jaw dropping out of shock. Don't tell me he's never tasted alcohol before?! Or even seen its effects?
"I drank sake of course." He snorted, crossing his arms and raising an eyebrow.
"You do know what sake is, right?" He asked. I mean come on, no one can be that naive or innocent....even Tomoyo's little cousins know what sake is, even if they haven't drunk it. He's got to know....right?
-
"You do know what sake is, right?"
Fai looked up at Kurogane's expression and laughed at how amused the man seemed to be, "Sake is the thing that humans drink to get tipsy?"
Then tilting his blonde head and considering for a moment, he asked Kurogane, "Do you have any of this... sake? I would like to try some, especially if you find it so good!"
-
Kurogane blinked at the question, before snorting disbleievingly again.
"Of course not, dummy! That's why I went to the tavern! I don't have any sake!" He snapped, turning around so that he wasn't facing Fai. However, he could still feel hurt eyes staring at his back, which made him sigh and turn back round again.
"Look....maybe I can get my hands on something, alright? It's not every day you meet a sprite....even if that sprite is an idiot." He sighed.
-
Fai smiled widely up at Kurogane, and began to walk towards the field once again. "So, it's a date then! Fai, Kurogane... and sake!" He giggled, then looked over his shoulder, back at Kurogane, as he gracefully jumped over the fence.
"You stayed a long time at that place where you were drinking sake," He said, grinning, "Shouldn't you be getting back to the palace, ne?"
-
Kurogane sighed, crossing his arms.
"Yes, Tomoyo will be angry other...hey! I never told you that!" He shouted, caught off guard by Fai's words.
-
"hey! I never told you that!"
Fai's grin grew wider at the look on Kurogane's face, "I've been watching you, Kuro-tan!" He admitted mischievously. "I like you..."
And then turning, Fai walked away, into the field. His body shimmering in the moonlight...blonde hair lighting like spun gold... then suddenly he disappeared, with only his last sentence ringing in the air behind him...
"Don't forget our date...Kuro-mu..."
-
Kurogane stared as Fai shimmered away, blinking at Fai's last words.
"I've been watching you, Kuro-tan!"
Then, shaking his head, he continued back to the palace, wondering what Tomoyo was going to make of all this. Fai's visit seemed to have sobered him up, and he was no longer stumbling along the path.....in fact, he was outright running, realising that he only had a short while until he passed the time Tomoyo had set for him to be back by.
Finally arriving, Kurogane marched past his fellow ninja with hardly a backward glance, before crashing through Tomoyo's door with his usual respect, yelling out to her.
"Tomoyo, you'll never guess what I just saw!"
-
"Tomoyo, you'll never guess what I saw!"
"Oooo, what did you see Kurogane??? Was it a pretty girl? And if it was, when is the wedding?" Tomoyo asked with a playful smile on her face as she spun around from her spot by the window.
"Maybe Kuro-muu has finally decided to settle down? Must be the full moon tonight..Oh yes and you barely made the cerfew! So this means that it has to be a girl!! "Tomoyo said as she walked towards Kurogane laughing.
-
Kurogane pulled to an aprupt halt at Tomoyo's words, and fluidly swung around, beginning to walk in the other direction seamlessly, as if that was what he had been intending to do right from the start.
Stupid! Kurogane cursed. How could you forget what she was like?!
-
Tomoyo chuckled, "Wait Kuro-muu!! Sorry, sorry! Couldn't help myself!" she smiled a wide smile. Tomoyo ran over to Kurogane and dragged him over to a large chair sitting him down.
"Seriously, what did you see?" Tomoyo said her smile fading, and her face became serious as she sat on another chair across from Kurogane.
-
Kurogane studied her suspiciously, searching for any sign of a typpical 'oh hohoho@. Seeing none, he shrugged and crossed his arms, smirking at Tomoyo knowingly.
"You know, I never really believed in sprites....even as a child, I was sceptical. But then tonight.....tonight, hime, I saw one." His voice was awed, and the fact that he had used Tomoyo's proper title was an indication of how much he had been overwhelmed by the experience.
"He was really annoying though." He said, coming back to earth with a bump.
-
"A sprite? Hmm..you don't see many around here. Interesting. Are you that you didn't drink to much sake though Kurogane? They're rarely allowed in the human world." Tomoyo said as she tapped her chin thoughtfully.
"Annoying? Not pretty? Awww..When are you seeing him again? I want to meet him." Tomoyo said absentmindely as she looked out her large bedroom window at the moon and smiling at the same time.
-
Kurogane turned up his nose at Tomoyo's comment about him drinking too much sake, although he was secretly wondering that himself.
"He said something about tomorrow night....but there's no way I'm letting you go near him! He'd probably end up running for the hill screaming, in one of your outfits." He snorted. "And pretty? Not really....although there was something fragile about him, almost effeminate.....and he had this blonde hair, you know? Like golden flax...." He breathed, before getting a hold on himself.
"And what do you mean, 'not allowed'?"
-
As Fai walked through the mist and snuck back to the Faerie realm, a light blush covered his face as he thought only of the dark haired human...Kurogane...
And still feeling a disbelief that he had actually spoke to a human man...he snuck quietly to where the King slept and resumed his position near him.. as if he had never left... And as he closed his blue eyes, began to dream of the next night, when he could see the man again...
-
"Ohohoho, Kuro-muu. Now why would I do that? Put a total stranger into one of my creations?" Tomoyo asked as she laughed.
"His blonde hair though, that sounds pretty! It would go well with some of my outfits, but if I could make one, it would look perfect!" she turned starry eyed just thinking about the outfit.
"And pretty? Not really....although there was something fragile about him, almost effeminate....and he had this blonde hair, you know? Like golden flax...."
"Sound to me like Kurogane likes someone!!!" Tomoyo said in a sing song voice when she heard that. When she saw Kurogane's face she reacted by laughing.
"What do I mean by saying "not allowed"? Well...Their King is quite strict about that rule. I can't explain it, must have been all the wine! I suppose you must ask him yourself tomorrow." Tomoyo said beaming at Kurogane while waving her hand in front of her.
-
Kurogane frowned at Tomoyo's explanation...or rather, lack of.....but simply nodded and got to his feet, exiting her chambers without another word. Tomorrow night then...he'd see whether this 'Fai' was real, or just a figment of his drunken imagination.
The next night, Kurogane leaned against the fence, waiting at the same point in the road that he'd seen Fai the other night. Slung over his shoulder was a bag.....and in that bag were several sake bottles. He'd gone down to the tavern early tonight especially to get them, but this time had not stayed to drink anything himself, wanting a clear head tonight.
Of course, if Fai never turned up because he hadn't really existed, Kurogane wouldn't be at too much of a loss.....
He could always drink the sake himself.
-
Fai walked across the field...blonde hair shining in the moonlight... hoping but not really believing Kurogane would come... then he saw the dark haired man leaning against the fence...
"Kuro-mu!" Fai cried, as he ran to the ninja, unable to restrain himself... throwing his arms around him and pressing himself close against the man’s warm body... Then suddenly realizing what he was doing, the blonde moved back quickly, a blush covering his face... “Gomen ne, Kurogane... I missed you...”
-
“Gomen ne, Kurogane... I missed you...”
Kurogane raised an eyebrow, but said nothing, secretly relieved that Fai had glomped him like that. There was no doubt at all now that Fai was indeed real, and not just his imagination.
"Here. The sake." He said shortly, holding the bag out to Fai.
-
"Is this sake?" Fai asked, eyes wide as he looked into the bag filled with bottles that clinked together as Kurogane handed it to him.
"Arigatou, Kurogane!" He laughed, and then hugged the ninja once again, this time holding on longer than before, nuzzling the ninja's chest...taking in the larger man's warmth...
"Where shall we drink our sake?" He asked, looking around, then taking Kurogane's hand and pulling him to a small group of trees where they wouldn't be seen from the road.
-
As Fai began to pull him over to a small group of trees, Kurogane dug his heels into the ground and shook his head.
"Uh uh. If you haven't had sake before, we have no idea what kinda effect it's going to have on you. We're going back to the palace." He said firmly, turning and beginning to pull Fai down the road and towards his home.
"Of course, we'll have to keep out of the way of the other ninjas and Tomoyo." He snorted, realising exactly what they'd think if they saw him entering the palace with an attractive, girly looking blonde.
Kurogane's life wouldn't be worth living.
-
"We're going back to the palace."
"Kuro-mu is taking me to the palace!" Fai smiled up at him, letting the ninja take hold of his arm and pull him along. The blonde rested his head against Kurogane as they quickly walked down the road in the darkness... feeling safe... all his worries about humans fading away as he began to completely trust this man...
Upon seeing the palace in the distance, Fai let out a happy cry and began to pull Kurogane... "Can I see your room first, Kuro-mu?!" He asked, looking up at the ninja with his innocent, blue eyes...
-
"Can I see your room first, Kuro-mu?!"
Kurogane swallowed hard, wondering why such an innocent question was effecting him so much.
"S..sure." He croaked,speeding up the pace and pulling Fai into the shadow of the great Imperial building. Then, glancing furtively around, he slung Fai over his shoulder and jumped up to a window ledge, before leaping onto another.
He carried on this way until he reached his own window, and kicked the shutters open, sliding into his room and putting Fai down as he turned to lock the shutters back up.
"Sorry about that. If the other ninjas saw you, they'd have assumed that....never mind."
-
"Whee!" Fai cried, as Kurogane suddenly lifted the slender blonde over his shoulder and carried him through the window and into his room. As Kurogane sat him back down, Fai held onto him for a moment trying to catch the breath that had been knocked from his slight body.
He then turned around in a circle, gazing around the room. His eyes fell momentarily on the futon bed that took up part of the room, and then he turned once again to the bag of sake the ninja was now holding.
"Teach me to drink sake now!" Fai told him, grinning, as he sat down on the floor crosslegged, gazing up at the ninja through blonde bangs.
-
Kurogane rolled his eyes, sitting down opposite Fai on the floor.
"Baka. It's just like any other drink. You pour it, drink it, and pour again." Kurogane snorted, demonstrating by grabbing a small goblet and filling it with sake, passing it across to Fai.
"And if you get more used to it, you can just drink it straight out of the bottle" He continued, grabbing another bottle and taking a swig from it. Smiling at the innocent way Fai was staring at the sake in wonder, he nudged the goblet slightly with his foot.
"Your turn. Or are all sprites this chicken?" He taunted.
-
"Chicken?" He asked Kurogane, then smiling once again, he lifted the glass and poured the whole contents into his mouth, swallowing it down quickly...
There was a pause as the blonde's eyes got huge, and his face flushed slightly, then he began to cough and sputter, trying to catch his breath.
After a few minutes of that, he settled down, and lifted his glass to the ninja, "More, please!" He laughed.
-
A small smile crept onto Kurogane's face, and he shook his head even as he poured Fai more sake and handed the bottle over to him.
"You're really something, you know that? Most people would just give up after a reaction like that." He snorted, leaning back on an elbow and taking another swig of his own drink.
"But then again, you're much dumber than most people, aren't you?" He sniggered.
-
"But then again, you're much dumber than most people, aren't you?"
Fai looked up at the ninja's face then, hurt shining in his eyes, "Just because you're the first human I've ever talked to doesn't make me dumb," He said quietly. Then lifting the glass Kurogane had given him, he once again poured it all into his mouth, this time sputtering a little less.
-
Kurogane bit his lip, fumbling for the right words to say in this situation. Unable to find any, he sighed, and decided that the best thing to do would be to change the subject.
"I'm the first human you've ever talked to?" He asked, noting with some surprise that Fai was already becoming accustomed to the taste of the alcohol.
Something in the back of his mind was warning him not to let Fai get too drunk and keep himself sober, but he brushed it aside, not really understanding why that particular thought had occurred to him.
-
"I'm the first human you've ever talked to?"
"Yes," Fai replied between drinks. He had now abandoned the glass that Kurogane had given him and was drinking straight from the bottle, long gulps...
"This sure is good sake, Kuro-mu!" He laughed suddenly. Then moving close to Kurogane, he gazed up at him, smiling... He then began to giggle as he leaned into Kurogane, nuzzling his blonde head against his chest. "Kuro-pi? I've never seen a bed like that before. Is that where you sleep? " He asked innocently, motioning to the futon that sat on the floor.
-
Kurogane raised an eyebrow, staring at the sprite.
"Of course it's where I sleep! Haven't you even seen a futon? First sake, then my futon....what do you have down in that world of yours? Rocks?!" He exclaimed disbelievingly. Then, shrugging, he took a large swig of sake again, leaning back on one hand.
"You can't honestly tell me that you've never seen a futon before...next thing I know, you'll be asking to try it out for yourself." He snorted.
-
"next thing I know, you'll be asking to try it out for yourself."
Fai looked to Kurogane with bright eyes, "Hyuu! Could I, Kuro-mu? Could I sleep in your futon with you... please?" Then without waiting for the ninja to answer, the blonde jumped up on rather unsteady legs, and flopped down dramatically onto Kurogane's bed, spilling some of the sake from the bottle he still held, and laughing rather giddily.
Then lifting the bottle up to his lips once more, he drank what was left, and tossed the bottle to the floor, looking up at Kurogane with wide playful eyes, "Kuro-mu, your face is all red, is it from the sake?"
-
Kurogane stared at Fai as the sprite looked at him playfully, those innocent eyes sending shivers down his spine and making him flush a deep red. Images of him sharing his futon with Fai flashed through his mind, and he coughed hard, lifting a hand to hide a very impressive nose bleed. Do not molest the sprite, do not molest the sprite.....
Discreetly wiping his nose off with a corner of his cape, Kurogane shrugged, and said in an amazingly calm voice, regarding the circumstances;
"Fine. Tonight only. Just get yourself ready for sleep. If you need night clothes, there are a few shirts in that pile, although they'd all be too big for you. Another image shoved it's way into his thoughts, and he groaned, pinching his nose to stop it bleeding again. Do not molest the sprite Kurogane, damnit!
-
“Yay!” Fai cried, then reaching off the bed, and nearly toppling over the edge, he grabbed the clothing that Kurogane had motioned to. The blonde pulled out a long shirt, and facing the other way, he pulled off his clothes and quickly pulled the ninja’s shirt over his head.
“You didn’t peek did you, Kuro-chan?” He asked, blue eyes glinting mischievously. Then giggling at the look on Kurogane’s face, he laid down in the ninja’s bed, “I’m waiting for you, Kuro-mu...”
-
Uncertain, Kurogane walked over to his futon, lying down next to the sprite and pulling the covers over them. Unsure of what to do, or how close Fai really wanted them to sleep, he cautiously wound his arms around his guest, breathing a small sigh of relief when Fai smiled and placed his own arms over Kurogane's holding them in place.
"So, sprite....is this living up to your expectations?" He asked dryly.
-
As soon as Kurogane was in the bed next to him, the sprite snuggled up to the large man's chest, happily pulling the ninja's arms tight around his slender body, and holding them in place.
"You're supposed to give me a goodnight kiss now, Kuro-chan," Fai suddenly said matter-of-factly. He looked up to the ninja sweetly, then closed his eyes waiting for Kurogane to kiss him...
-
Kurogane paled, his eyes darting over the room as if looking for someone to help him. Damnit! What the hell is he thinking of?! I'm not kissing him....I'm a samurai, a cold heartless samurai....who realy wants to kiss him back right at the mo...aargh! No!
Rapidly unwinding his arms from around Fai, Kurogane hurriedly rolled onto his side, facing away from Fai and attmepting to bury his now crimson face in a pillow.
"No way. Go find some other mug of a samurai to play your games with." He grunted feebly, his voice muffled by the covers.
-
“You’re so mean, Kuro-mu,” Fai pouted as the ninja turned away. Then grinning, he jumped over Kurogane to sit facing the ninja, and leaning his blonde head close to Kurogane’s face, he whispered, “I just know I won’t be able to go to sleep without a goodnight kiss.”
Then the blonde leaned even closer, blinking his large blue eyes at the man, and softly running his slender fingers through Kurogane’s short spiky hair, he asked innocently, “Don’t you want to kiss me, Kuro-mu?”
-
“Don’t you want to kiss me, Kuro-mu?”
"No." Kurogane said through gritted teeth, shutting his eyes and refusing to look at Fai. Yes I do, yes I do!
Feeling the soft touch of Fai's fingers running through his ahir, Kurogane let out a small sigh despite himself, finding himself beginning to relax unconsciously.
"Are all sprites as annoyingly hyper and calm mixed into one?" He breathed, shifting closer to the touch.
-
Fai giggled softly as Kurogane turned his head, unconsciously moving closer to him, and the sprite continued to run his fingers through the man's hair.
"Are all sprites as annoyingly hyper and calm mixed into one?"
The blonde giggled at the question, “Are all humans this stubborn?” Fai asked back with a grin. He then continued to stroke Kurogane’s dark hair... as he moved closer... his face now only a few inches away from the ninja’s... his wide eyes looking up at the man innocently... then falling part way closed as the sprite sighed softly... “Please kiss me... Kuro-mu...”
-
Kurogane opened his eyes, staring up into Fai's pleading blue eyes, before focusing on those perfect rosy lips, and smiling softly.
"Yeah, we are....but we give in pretty quickly to sprites too." And with those words, he leaned upwards and planted his lips firmly against the sprite's, finally giving Fai the kiss he'd been so persistent about.
Pulling back, he grinned wickedly up the blonde, his red eyes twinkling in mischief.
"Well, sprite...what do you think of that?"
-
Fai sighed softly, feeling the breath pulled from him, as Kurogane’s lips touched his, and thinking the kiss had absolutely been worth all it had taken to get to.
"Well, sprite...what do you think of that?"
“More please,” the sprite whispered softly, blue eyes staring deep into Kurogane’s crimson eyes... all the mischievousness leaving his gaze as he realized he finally, happily, had the strong ninja right where he wanted him... wanting him too...
-
“More please,”
Kurogane blinked in mild surprise, before grinning broadly as he caught the happy look in Fai's eyes, and suddenly realising that he wanted to make sure that Fai was always this happy. Evn though he'd known the sprite for such a short time, he felt a deep connection between them....almost as if they had known each other in another life. And for someone like Kurogane to admit that...it had to be a strong feeling.
"Fine then, Fai. But you may end up surprised." He threatened playfully, moving over to the candle and blowing it out, plunging the room into darkness.
"Let's see if you still want more after this..." He whispered, before joining Fai on the futon again.....and pulling him close to meet a passionate kiss....
-
~~~
Fai woke slowly, his blue eyes surprised to see the moon slowly being pushed away by the sun as early morning approached. He knew he had to leave... he had no choice... As much as he wanted to stay pressed close against the man beside him, safe and warm, another would soon be waking... and if he wasn’t there...
The blonde sprite looked to the dark-haired man that lay next to him, and leaned in to nuzzle his chest gently, the words of his earlier plea coming back to him... ”more please...” and he smiled, thinking about just how much more he’d gotten...
Fai then whispered in Kurogane’s ear, softly... reluctantly, “I must leave now, Kuro-mu, but I will be back when night comes, and we can drink sake again, if you wish...”
-
When Kurogane woke, there was no trace of the blonde spirit who had spent the night in his room....nor any sign that he had ever been there, for both the window and door were still locked.
"Was it just a dream?" Kurogane murmured to himself, glancing round the room. But then he felt a warmth in his chest, and looked down to see the mark of a sloppy kiss, placed there knowingly for the dark haired man to find.
No......it was real.
