Chapter 2
The next day mercifully was the weekend, at around oh-butt-thirty I hear cinder moving around in the kitchen. Ignoring her I fall back asleep. Waking up for the second time I look at my clock "12:30" I groan pulling myself out of bed and getting dressed.
"Looks like Someone slept in" a chipper voice sounds behind me.
I jump a foot in the air, land on my bed roll off and fall on my face. "DAMMIT CINDER" I shout standing up and quickly pulling my shirt on all the while blushing furiously. She smiles, her eyes shining. I shake my head realizing that I am staring 'what is with me today' I think as I grab her proffered hand.
"Someone's extremely high-strung today" cinder remarks pulling me up.
"There's more to it than that" I say squeezing my thighs together trying to quell the ache that has spread there. "I've found someone..." I trail off not knowing how to continue.
She looks down "oh..." She says slight disappointment edging her voice and features.
I lean closer half expecting her to pull away and laugh at her own joke. But as I get closer she seizes my shoulders and pulls me into a kiss. "I have an idea" I say breaking the kiss to come up for air "my family believes that battle is the truest form of expression, so I would like you to spar with me" her eyes widen and she blushes.
"Let's do it" she whispers and an aura of fire whips up as two glass weapons form on her hands.
"Wow" I breathe as I take in the chrystallic structure of her swords. Snapping out of my daze I in turn summon my blades "Kami no souru" I shout realizing that I don't have enough time to summon them without their name. I bring my sword up just in time to block hers, and the impact knocks me back a couple of feet.
"God of souls" cinder smiles "an apt name" she states as our blades meet again. "I can tell that the white one is your soul," she says pausing "but who does the black one represent" she questions. Pulling myself into a crouch I smile quickly casting an illusion spell to hide my sharp teeth "I hope you never have to meet her" we charge at each other pulling out all the stops. Sparks fly in a blur of motion as we fly at each other. Finding a break in the pattern I charge in only to find myself flipped to the ground with cinder straddling my stomach, a glass knife at my throat, and our faces only inches apart. My breath starts coming out in short gasps and a flush creeps up my neck.
"Well looks like someone's having fun" Yang's voice comes from the doorway. Cinder smiles and throws her knife in Yang's general direction, then grabs my head softly and pulls me into a tender kiss. When we break away she stands up and turns to yang "yup" then she pulls me up and into another kiss. Yang squees and pulls us into a hug "wait till I tell-"
"No-one" I say cutting her off "you will tell no-one until we're ready"
"But-" Yang pouts
"No butts Yang" I admonish "we're still working things out" I say softening my voice "you'll be the first to know when cin and I decide to go public"
"Honey," cinder says coming up behind me "I'll love you to the ends of the earth, but" she says kissing me "call me that again and I will kill you" she smiles "Kay"
I smile deviously then grab her waist and dip her then leaning in and kissing her I smile "fine no nicknames yet"
