OK this is for all those who believe in equal rights for Gay's and Lesbians! This story is my statement on the law, for not acknowledging our marriages as legal bindings! This is my statement! I know from research that every state in the US has it's own legal standing on Gay Marriage and I'm looking at the states that don't allow this kind of thing. Yeah I know that these characters belong in Japan, but for the sake of my statement, I'm placing them in the US, yeah I know, I hate that too, but damnit I want to make my point known!



Haruka and Michiru were a loving couple. They lived normal lives, Haruka was a car macanik and Michiru was a school teacher. The only thing that was different about them was that they were both women, that loved each other in a rather intimate way. They owned a house together and had a very loving relationship. Their neighbors thought that they made a cute couple, and were fond of them as people. Haruka was Married to Michiru, but the problem was that they lived in Vermont, one of two states to recognize a lesbian marriage as legal. (A.N. ok I know a little down to the point but I'll get into it in a moment)

Michiru was a small girl with Aqua hair. Her mother was still getting used to the idea of her being with Haruka in that way.

Haruka was a strong built female that handled her job very well. Harukas mother did not like Michiru at all and offered to take her daughter back if she would abandon Michiru forever.



"Haruka dear, what time will you be home tonight?" Michiru asked over the phone.

"Michiru, I'm sorry about the delay but I was flooded with work today and I need to get it done as soon as possible." came the audible response from the other.

"But I was hoping to have a nice dinner and then maybe some quiet time to ourselves in our bedroom."

"I'm so sorry Michiru. I'll be home as soon as I can. I gotta go, the boss'll be here in a moment and I don't think he'd like to see me on the phone again. Bye honey, I love you."

"I love you too Haruka," Michiru heard the click of the phone being hung up and slowly turned to look at the small candle lit dinner that she had set out on the small kitchen table. She sighed and blew out the candle.



Haruka arrived home at about 10:30 in the evening. She walked into the kitchen and say the meal Michiru had set out for her when she got home. She smiled a little and ate all that she could and then washed her plate and put it into the dishwasher. Silently she walked across the house and opened the door to their room. She smiled and kissed the sleeping Michiru on the cheek. She took a quick shower before curling into bed, snuggling next to Michiru.



The next day Haruka was scheduled on a flight to see her cousen in New Orleans. Her flight was late in the day, which gave her plenty of time to pack and enjoy her time with Michiru. They were loading Harukas stuff in the car when Michiru was hit by that soft feeling of dread.

"Haruka?" She asked holding Harukas on flight bag. Haruka looked at her. "Do you have to go right now?"

"Michiru, you know that Crystal's waiting for me in New Orleans. We've been planning this trip for months." Haruka put a hand on Michiru's shoulder. "What's wrong honey?"

"It's nothing, just that bad feeling, I don't know." She looked up at Haruka. "I feel liek there's something bad waiting for us."

"Michiru, we both get that feeling when either of us leaves on any kind of trip, just keep a good heart about it all." She placed a small comforting kiss on Michiru's forehead. "Now we have to leave if we're going to get to the airport before I miss my flight."

"OK Haruka, but I don't know if I want to let you go. Your Mine! No one else can have you!" she giggled and kisses Haruka. "Now promise me that you'll be safe and that you won't be a naughty in the Sin City."

"I promise babe, you know I would never do anything that goes against this..." she held up her left hand and twisted her wedding band off to show the inside. On the inside was 'H&M FOREVER' inscribed in the silver. "I love you Michiru."

"I love you too Haruka, I just want you to be safe." They shared a short kiss before Haruka climbed into her car and bid her farewell once more, before driving to the airport.





Ok This is corny and well I don't know if I like it, but damnit it's for the statement! Review please, I'd like to know what everyone thinks of my stuff!
