Chapter two: The king's question.

Fuu and Ferio had finally managed to reach his apartments in the higher part of the castle.

When they entered his rooms they made there way strait over to the widow seat were they sat together looking at each other.

After some time of wondering and loving silence between them Ferio spoke. "There was a reason I brought you here, instead of letting you see the others before I stole you off."

Fuu looked at him, Ferio's voice was tentative and his eyes were full of worry. Fuu was a little concerned he was never normally like this. "You know that you can always tell me what ever is on your mind."

Ferio looked at her his eyes filled with concern. "Does that go for asking you any questions I have as well." Fuu nodded she wondering were on Earth Ferio was going with this conversation.

"Oh good. Because I was wanting to make our relationship into a formal engagement. Now in my heart I have placed the belief that I can do the same as you magic knights go to earth and come back here. So you can introduce me to your mother and we can visit her some times if you don't mind living here with me that is. So My Fuu I wish to ask you if you would do me the greatest of honours and be my wife?"

Fuus eyes were wide she threw her arms round Ferio. "Of course I'll marry you and that's wonderful about you being able to come and meet my mother I would like you too do that. As for living here that would be wonderful, my mother knows that I have always wanted to go abroad and I can say you live over seas so she wont mind."

"Oh good I'm glad to hear that I was dreading you saying no to me."

Ferio drew her close, Fuu smiled up at him. "I am now going to attempt the small Japanese word I learnt from Umi. So bear with me if this goes a little wrong alright?"

Fuu nodded wondering what it was he had learnt from Umi. Ferio coughed once and went a little red. "Aishiteru Fuu."

Fuu grinned at him, Ferio looked a little onshore. "That was perfect Ferio thank you for learning it for me."

"Anything for you my darling."

He drew her close, Fuu looked up into his golden eyes and he looked back into her green ones slowly he smiled. Leaning down to her he kissed her very gently Fuu responded to him just as gently, leaving them in a loving silence.
