Recap
Poof!
Skull transformed. Mortified, he ran the rest of the way to his rooms
Pausing, Bianchi turned and followed him.

Day Three, continued
The purple duo walked in silence to his room. When they arrived at Skull's door, he entered but left the door open for Bianchi. She followed.
vvv
Bianchi was surprised at Skull's silence, but figured it was probably due to his embarrassment at changing back to his baby form. Willing to wait for him to open up to her, she headed to towards the small kitchen.
It wasn't long before she had a small dinner and dessert ready. Silently, she set the table and sat down to eat.
vvv
Skull sat in the sitting room thinking. He was proud of all that he had accomplished, but afraid to tell Bianchi. The smell of her wonderful cooking wafted through the room, drawing him to the kitchen.
Sitting across from her at the small table, Skull could not meet her eyes. "Domo arigatou*," he whispered.
vvv
Bianchi smiled at the sound of the stuntman's voice. Wishing to see his eyes, she reached across the table and placed her hand upon his. Stunned, he looked up at her.
Her smiled broadened as she responded, "Iie*."
As dinner turned to dessert, conversation began to blossom. Soon, they retired to Skull's room for the night.

Day Four
Over a small breakfast made by Bianchi, Skull contemplated how to tell her of his deal with Scheletro. Finally, when Bianchi rose to take the dishes to the sink, he made a decision.
When her back was to him, he slipped off his black leather gloves and placed them on the table. As he rose from his own chair, he slipped the silver ring of the Carcassa Family off. Kneeling on one knee behind her, he cleared his throat.
Her eyes grew large, as she looked at him. Skull's will hardened as he saw the smile stretching across her face.
"B- bianchi-chan, w-would you marry me?" His voice had started soft and but became strong and clear as he finished.

"B- bianchi-chan, w-would you marry me?"
Bianchi blinked her. She could not hold back the smile that lit up her face or the butterflies in her tummy. As she stepped toward him, the past few days passed through her thoughts.
The first time Skull tried and enjoyed her food in the limo… Running her fingers through his hair as he slept on the jet… Their first kiss… The feel of his body when they made love…
Blushing, Bianchi nodded yes as she fell to her knees before him, reaching for him.
vvv
Skull was stunned that she had said yes and sat frozen for a moment, but when her arms reached for him he reached for her.
