Whazzup guys! It's been ages since I updated right? My exams are over and now I have time to focus on writing… and so here it is… I'll try and update as soon as possible. Have fun reading! ^^
Reviews are deeply appreciated.
It sure is nice to be home once again. He then realize that Oyakata-sama's idea of going home is not that bad. The cheerful Sanada Yukimura is then greeted by a court lady with a warm, motherly smile, and he returned the smile gracefully while bowing. "My, my, Yukimura-sama, what were you thinking, leaving Ueda for such a long time? Sasuke-kun, you should have reminded him how everyone here had anticipated his return, especially Akihime-sama." Yukimura chuckles nervously, scratching his head innocently as they are passing the hallways of the large, majestic castle of the Sanada clan. Yukimura had already known where they are heading, and spontaneously his body shakes with fear, anxiety and unease. They finally reach a room, which Yukimura acknowledges so well, the painting of a terrifying feared oni on the shoji (door) perfectly describes the person in it. The court lady kneels politely before the door. "They have arrived, Lord Masayuki." After a few moments, a stern, firm reply came. "Let them in." Hearing her landlord's respond, she gesture both Yukimura and Sasuke to come inside the room, bowing again before leaving.
At the centre of the grandly furnished room, an old man was sitting in a much reposed manner, with a smoking pipe in his hand and a fan in the other. Wrinkles were all over his visage but the air of might and virtue is still lingering about him. This man is the head of the Sanada clan, Sanada Masayuki. A glimpse of him would have reminded anyone of Takeda Shingen. Sasuke knelt, lowering his head upon seeing this man, who he sees as his master and Yukimura bowed deeply.
"Pardon me for not coming back for such a long time… Father."
He took a glance at his face and smiled. The man suddenly got up and frowned. Even Sasuke was startled, and Yukimura, was shivering and maybe he would end up pissing himself. To be honest, in the mighty warrior's life, he had only feared three people. His Oyakata-sama, Lord Sanada Masayuki – his father, and his cherished Akihime. The fan was raised, and it appeared like the man is aiming for the warrior's head. "Masayuki-sama!" Sasuke gasped as Lord Masayuki yelled mightily like he was facing an enemy and stroke his fan to his son's head, but to Yukimura's surprise it resulted in a gentle, harmless hit. He opened his eyes and saw his father putting on his usual strict face.
"How dare you to show yourself after forgetting about your old man?" There is an air of silence for a quite amount of time.
"Father. Pardon me! I, Sanada Genjirou Yukimura am guilty for neglecting you! Hit me, father! I would not object to anything you would do to me."
Sasuke was about to interfere, as Lord Masayuki's large hand ruffle through his son's hair. His frown has ceased to turn into a longing smile. "Welcome home, Nobushige." Yukimura's eyes were glinting as he heard that name. His father was the only one who calls him by his formal name. "Father…" Sasuke's lips curve slightly as he watched Lord Masayuki patting his son's shoulder. Out of the blue, Masayuki's eyes turn to Sasuke. "You've done a good job, Sasuke. I'm sorry if he had troubled you." Sasuke bowed to his lord's praise. "It is my duty, Masayuki-sama. Danna did a brilliant job and he did not trouble me at all." If only you knew, Masayuki-sama…
Thus, Lord Masayuki, his son, Yukimura and Sasuke sit down enjoying their tea as the young enthusiastic warrior told his war experience in his fiery way. Sasuke shook his head disapprovingly while his father listened attentively and sometimes laughed. Yukimura was glad as Masayuki told him, "You've grown the way I wanted, Nobushige. Worthy and deserves to lead the Sanada clan to glory and prosperity! Shingen did a great job indeed. However…" Yukimura sipped his tea, waiting for his father's words. "When would you give me grandchildren?" Good timing. He bursted his tea right on Sasuke's face. "Chi- Children?" he asked, his face flushed red, Akihime's face was on his mind. Lord Masayuki nodded. "Yes. Don't you think it's time, Nobushige?" Yukimura looked down; his face was even redder than his armor. Seeing his reaction, Masayuki narrowed his eyes suspiciously and then his foot was on the table and his fan pointed to his son's face. "Don't tell me… you haven't touched her yet?" Sasuke tries hard to contain his laughter upon seeing his Danna's reaction to his father's accusation. "Masayuki-sama, your son is even more pure than Lady Aki herself…" he thought. "EHHHH?" Yukimura exclaimed, defensively got up. "Of course I have!" Aware of the matter in his son's mind, Masayuki continued, "Not the hand touching, hugging thing, skin brushing, I mean, Nobushige… the husband and wife thing, you know?" Yukimura wailed, full of embarrassment and innocence. "I know! It's just that…" he muttered. Sasuke and Masayuki waited for him to continue. The atmosphere was too tense for Yukimura. "That's our secret, okay? I don't think I should tell you our bedroom matters!" Masayuki and Sasuke shook heads and exchanged disappointed glances. "Nobushige. I won't live long. At least, I want to see your little ones before I leave. At least, I would be rest assured that you had passed your blood. There would be continuation of the Sanada legacy. Go and see Akihime. I'm sure both of you had so much to say after being apart for so long."
His father's words echoed in his head as he walks beside Sasuke, heading to his room. "Hey Sasuke." Sasuke had a bad feeling when he turned to his Danna. His lips were pouted. Sanada Yukimura's ultimate attack is unleashed. His cute face.
"What?" replied Sasuke. Yukimura frowned, there's a sad look in his eyes.
"I love Aki. I really do." Sasuke put his hand on his Danna's shoulder.
"I know, Danna. Relax. And I know, she loves you too." Yukimura smiled a little.
"Maybe I'm too absorbed with battles and wars that I'm… awkward when it comes to such physical relationship. But I love her, sincerely. Do you feel that way when you're with Kasuga? You know, awkward, shy, maybe?"
Sasuke pondered about that for a while. Please! He's a lady's charmer. He's all sly and skilled when it comes to womanizing. Besides, a ninja must be equipped with excellent skills of love making… just in case it is needed. But now he has to make Yukimura feel better, so… "It's normal Danna… after a while you'd get natural with it. It's a man's nature, trust me. Like I said, you're just inexperienced. That's all." Yukimura's eyes were brightening with pleasure at Sasuke's words. "Thanks. You always know what to say, Sasuke!" The shinobi, on the other hand forced a smile. "But I'm worried, though" the warrior suddenly said. His sulky expression returns. At the same time, a servant came up to Yukimura and bowed. "Yukimura-sama, we have prepared lots of dango for your return. I hope you would have some." A bright smile flashed. "REALLY?! Sweet! All of you are so generous! Of course I would have some, no, all of them!" As Yukimura hums happily, tailing the servant, Sasuke sighed again. "Danna, are you really worried?" and followed his master nonetheless.
NEXT, Our Yuki is finally meeting Aki… wait for the update. I'll do my best… sorry for my bad English, it's not my mother tongue… ^^
