Princess Aiko sat in her room brushing her sunset golden hair
thinking of her beloved Yukio and when he would return from the battle
field.They had been together for an eternity as it seemed. As she stared
into her eyes in the mirror she heard the pounding of horse hooves and
carraige wheels on the hard dirt ground outside. She instantly dropped her
brush and ran to the window to see her sweet love had returned at last! She
rushed down the cold cobble stone staircase on her swift bare feet. As she
reached the front room, there was a long awaited knock at the door. Her
heart pounded with every beat on the wood.Aiko gracefuly opend the door to
be greeted with Yukio's warm embrace and a kiss to her hand.
"My fair Aiko" He spoke with such passion in his words.
Aiko's eyes glistend with joy to see that Yukio had returned from battle in one piece. Yukio wiped the tears from his sweet flower's cheeks.
"General Chou has requested me, is he home?"
Aiko bowed,
"AI Father is in his study quarters "
Yukio followed the nimble girl to his general's whereabouts.
"Excuse me," Aiko poked her head in the door."Father, Lord Yukio is here."
"Ah, my sweet daughter let him in and haste."
Yukio entered to see the old general and king of the land, Aiko's father growing old with time.
"My boy my boy!, I have heard the war was sucessful as far?"
"Mmmm yes my lord tis' well."
Aiko sat by the door cracked slighlty, not even a mouse could enter.
"Now lord Chou, what may I ask is the reason for this call,praytell?"
"Well, Yukio my boy, I see you are worthy and noble with a sword and have had an eye upon my fair daughter Aiko since yee were knee hight. I have pondered and watched you to tell if you were worthy of her hand, and I am impressed with what I have observed. You are to be wed to Aiko at once!"
"My..my lord! Tis an honor to be wedd to the finest girl in all Rukusai!"
"Then it is set, you will be wedd before next moon rise."
Aiko couldn't belive what she had precived!
"Oh glorious love! Oh joy and rapture of fine and fair markings to the moon!"
As she continued to listen, there was a pounding knock at the door. Aiko opend the door to see a little messenger boy, only the age of 10 or so.
"Please miss,may...may I speek to Lord Chou!Tis' ergent!"
She nodded and showed the boy to father and her suitor.
"Lord! We need you at the chambers of congregation now."
"Ai boy let us go, Yukio stay and protect Aiko, I will be back tomorrow in time for the marraige cerimonies. The servants will set up everything."
Lord Chou and the young messenger boy rushed out the door and off on horseback.
"My sweet,tis getting late and tommorrow is a big day."
"Ai. You may sleep in father's room, if you wish."
Aiko showed her sentual lover to the room and he laid on the bed.
"Mmmm, Aiko come lay with me?"
"As you wish but only for a little while."
She laid down in Yukio's sweet arms and he began to play with her long soft hair. Aiko closed her eyes and began to sleep with the comfort of protection surrounding her. Yukio kissed her cheek as he began to tire and fall into a slumber.
Arm in arm the qaint lovers slept under the moonlight.
"My fair Aiko" He spoke with such passion in his words.
