Dad: YOUNG GIRL! WHAT DID I TELL YOU?!
DAMN IT! °runs for life°
I don'ty owny TMMy! xD
Last time:
What was I for Kisshu? A person who was chosen to save his race? A random girl that suddenly became a princess? Was I just an excuse to please his desires? A long awaited girl which was chosen to be married to the prince? Wait? Who was the prince, anyway? Kisshu said something about me being his princess …
My eyes widened after some time of thinking and I tensed up at the thought.
"I'm chosen to marry the prince; to marry Kisshu!" I squeaked and covered my face with the blanket, trying to find something that could prove me wrong. But after some time of thinking, I got tired and drifted off to sleep; mentally praying that my theory was not wrong.

2 days later
Chiyo's POV
"Arek …-"
"Is … fine …-"
"She … rest … seems … worn out …-"
"- … Chiyo …"
I moaned a bit while sleepily opening my eyes; who needed to speak at a time like this? I couldn't understand their whole sentences, anyway! Opening my eyes the whole way, I realized that I was still in the Café basement. My waist ached but it wasn't as bad as the last time. Turning my head, I blinked as I saw Pai, Taruto and Kisshu standing in the room, looking away from me as they seemed to talk about something.
"Morning …" I mumbled sleepily, getting their full attention. I smiled softly at them and yawned. Kisshu's ears perked up at that and my smile got even brighter.
"Chiyo!" He called and rushed over to my side, gently taking my face into his hands while caressing my cheeks with both his thumbs. I blushed at his touch and mentally smiled happily.
"Got you worried there, didn't I?" I teased and to my surprise, his face turned serious and stern.
"Don't you dare do that ever again; did you hear me?!" He scolded and I just flinched a bit, my eyes softening as I looked deeply into his eyes.
"I wanted to safe you and I'm happy I could do it; I couldn't let that guy kill you and have you dying in my arms. I'm sorry I worried you, Kisshu …" I whispered the last part and saw how surprised he was by my words.
He sighed and sat down on the bed, being careful as to not sit onto my arm or something. I tore my eyes away from him a bit and looked back at Pai and Taruto; both of them were staring at me with worry and relief. I smiled and I saw Taruto's eyes widen before he grinned cutely back at me.
"Hey, guys!" I said and both aliens walked over to me; well, Taruto rushed over.
"Are you alright? You are alright, aren't you?!" Taruto asked and I just shook my head.
"I'm not alright …" I said and they looked at me in confusion. Grinning, I ruffled Taruto's hair.
"I must be crazy to find you guys so super-cute!" I finished and they grinned at me except for Pai, who just smiled.
"We are glad that you're awake, Ohime-sama." Pai said and my smile vanished, causing Kisshu to glare at Pai. I shook my head and put a hand on Kisshu's shoulder.
"Don't blame him … please … it's not his fault … I'm the problem here …" I whispered and Kisshu looked at me with a raised eyebrow. Keeping my mouth shut, I was close to crying. I saw Kisshu nod towards Pai and Taruto and they vanished from the room. Sighing, I knew what was going to come now.
"What do you mean?"
Here it comes …
"I mean … I don't want to be a princess … at first, I thought that you guys just call me like that because I'm something like that and not a real one … I just don't want to be Queen …" I mumbled the last part and I felt Kisshu shift a bit. Before I knew it, he was on top on me and luckily, he was careful as to not put too much weight on my waist.
"Why don't you want to be Queen? Don't you want to be my princess?" He whispered hotly into my ear and I fought back the small moan that wanted to escape.
"Kisshu …"
"Don't you want to help all our people?"
"Yes, but …"
"Don't you want to see Pai and Taruto's family happy?"
"Sure … but …"
"Don't you like me?"
"I … I don - … No …" I whispered and I felt his body tense up. He stayed frozen in place and I closed my eyes, trying to fight the tears that would escape if he understood me wrong.
"So … that's why you don't want to be Queen? Because you hate-"
"Because I love you …"
I could see his eyes widen and I smiled a small smile, which was filled with relief, joy and pain.
"I don't like you; I love you, Kisshu …" I repeated and he took a breath before he pulled back a bit to look into my eyes.
"Then why don't you want to be my Queen …?" He asked and I heard all the sadness in his voice; he was by a loose. I sighed and smiled sadly up at him.
"I don't want to grow up and to be a Queen, you have to grow up and that fast …" I whispered and I saw him blink before smiling gently at me.
"You don't have to grow up to be a Queen …" He whispered huskily as he snuggled his face into my neck. It caused me to giggle and he pulled back to grin at me with pure joy. I stared at his happy face before I closed my eyes to think.
"But … a Queen has duties and things to do and I don't want to already start ruling people around and things and …"
"Yes, a Queen has duties but the King takes care of all the things! You can still stay young if you want to; I'm not going to change that! You will just have to stay calm and gentle when you go in public. But I don't have to tell you that; you already act like a princess! Just stay yourself and the people will accept you. When I think it through; they would love you at first sight."
He said and I sighed before looking into his eyes, which were filled with gentleness and … hope? Does that mean he wants me to be his Queen? Oh my god … that's why he tried to … Royalties already have kids at teen-age, don't they?
"But … about that royal-thing … Is it usual for royalties to have kids at young age?" I asked a bit embarrassed but Kisshu just smiled down at me.
"To be honest; we two are just in season for that!" Kisshu said excitedly as he dove down to kiss my neck. I squeaked at first but I couldn't fight the moan that wanted to escape; that alien found my soft-spot!
"Is it a bad timing to check Chiyo out?"
My and Kisshu's head shot up and my face went wholly red as I saw Keiichiro standing in the room, smiling gently but still a bit amused. Kisshu jumped off of me and cleared his throat while straightening his shirt. I pulled the cover to my nose, hoping it would hide my blush but Keiichiro maybe already had a mental picture of my face. Keiichiro turned to Kisshu and smiled somehow amused.
"Should I come later?"
"No, you can check Chiyo out; her wellbeing has priority." Kisshu said while blushing a rosy colour at the thought that Keiichiro, out of all people, saw us in an awkward situation.
"You're right, Kisshu-san." Keiichiro said and I could see Kisshu tense up at how he called him.
Keiichiro walked over to me and I gulped as he pulled the covers back, revealing my in-bandage-covered chest and waist. My eyes widened as Keiichiro then started to take the bandages off.
"M-Matte!" I squealed and Keiichiro stopped and looked at me, smiling softly while Kisshu seemed to have trouble breathing as he had a slight blush on his cheeks.
"Hai?" Keiichiro asked gently and I blushed furiously.
"Y-You can't t-take the bandages o-off!" I yelled and Keiichiro looked at me.
"Don't worry; I'm just going to look at the wound. I'm not going to take a peek, okay?" Keiichiro said and I hesitantly nodded.
I laid my head onto the pillow and closed my eyes tightly as I felt the cold air hit my waist and chest; it felt strange but I could handle it. Opening my eyes again, I was surprised as I saw Kisshu looking back at me. He wasn't looking at my chest! Oh god … he maybe wanted to …
"Kisshu …?" I whispered and he smiled softly as he knelt next to the bed; a hand taking mine and the other on my head, stroking my hair.
"Hai?"
"How did I survive …? I felt how deep the wound was and I saw people dying from such wounds so … why … or how did I survive …?" I asked, remembering that the sword pierced through my waist. Kisshu chuckled and I looked at him, puzzled.
"You only can die a normal death or if you wish to. When someone stabs you or something, then you will be brought back to live and healed. The only thing that would remind you of the wound would be the pain when you wake up. You don't have a wound but the pain is still there as if you have one." Kisshu explained and I blinked.
"The pain and a mark which proves that she was wounded." Keiichiro added and my eyes widened along with Kisshu's. I sat up and Kisshu pulled back to look at my waist. I gasped as I saw a little sword mark on my waist just were the sword stabbed me. The mark looked exactly like the Knight's sword.
"Is this … normal?!" I squealed and Kisshu touched the mark lightly, making me gasp a bit; it really felt like the wound was still there.
"I wasn't informed of this!" Kisshu shouted as he shot up into a straight position. I flinched at his raised voice and just then did I realize that my chest was still revealed. I pulled the covers to me, covering my chest as I looked up at Kisshu, who was still growling at the ceiling.
"Kisshu, it's okay; really, it is." I said calmly and Kisshu looked at me, slowly calming down but he still had a dark aura around him. Sighing, I looked at Keiichiro who was smiling with relief.
"It seems that everything is alright; you will just feel the pain some time longer but then you will be okay again, Chiyo. Kisshu, you can take her with you and promise to take good care of her. By the way, if you don't feel good, Chiyo, then just come and tell me; I will see what I can do, alright?" Keiichiro said and I nodded, smiling brightly at him in a grateful way.
He nodded and walked upstairs, leaving me and Kisshu alone again. I looked at Kisshu; he was still grumbling. I tugged lightly on his pigtail, snapping him out of his glare contest with the wall. He looked at me, blinking.
"Kisshu, can I ask after a favour?" I asked softly and he nodded.
"Can I visit my parents?" I whispered sadly and Kisshu just smiled before taking my hand.
"Maybe you would like to take some clothes on first?" He pointed out and I blushed as I realized that he had snatched the blanket away from me.
"U-RU-SAI!~"
