Chapter 2"I'm afraid you're stuck together" Himeji gulped when the couple gave him the evil eye.
"Stuck… together?" The girl's left eye began to twitch.
"Y-Yes" he gave a small shriek when the hair man hauled him up by the collar.
"How do we get unstuck?" Aoshi demanded.
"T-there's a key, but I lost it" He brought his hands up and begged. "Please don't kill me. I swear I'll get you free. Please!" He gave a sigh of relief when the man dropped him to the ground.
"Aoshi-sama" the girl interrupted. "Do you think we can break it loose?"
"Good idea" Aoshi muttered. Pulling his kodachi out, he was surprise when the man grabbed his arms.
"Wait! Please don't break it! I had to import it from the U.S. Do you know how expensive that is?" Himeji paled.
"You should have thought about that before you handcuffed us," Aoshi growled.
"Don't!" Flinging himself forward, Himeji placed both his hands over the precious metal. "You'll have to kill me first"
"If you want" Aoshi stared at him coldly.
"Aoshi-sama!" the girl gasped. Bringing his kodachi down, he stopped it several inches from the flinching man. "You're lucky Misao's here" he muttered as he tucked it away.
"Can't you get if off without a key?" Misao demanded when the man opened one eye cautiously.
"No" Himeji gave a sigh of relief. "My sister, Satori, has a spare key. I can write to her and she could send it"
"Good" Aoshi gave him a cold glare.
"But first" Himeji hesitated. "Please promise you won't do anything to it until the key arrives" He gazed at them firmly. "I spent years saving up my money for this. If you break it…"
"We understand" Misao sighed. "We won't do anything to it, just write to your sister"
"I-I'll go now" Himeji reluctantly moved his hand.
"Wait" Aoshi gently tugged Misao along. "We're going with you."
"What? Why?" Misao grew confused.
"He might run away" Aoshi bent down and awkwardly picked up some packages.
"Aoshi-sama, Let me help you" Misao reached over.
"Misao, Don't!" It was too late. Tripping over a package, Misao had stumbled into Aoshi who lost his balance. Himeji winched at the loud crash.
"Anou…" he kept his mouth shut when Aoshi gave him a warning glare.
"Aoshi-sama?" Moaning, Misao glanced down at Aoshi who closed his eyes in frustration.
"What?" he sighed.
"I just had a thought" Misao paled. "if we're stuck together, how can we take a bath?"
