2,134 words, 2 hours, etc, etc... we know the drill. Anyways, I have an enjoyable (or so I think) twist in here... yeah... Alright, anyways, bad news: I'm obsessed with runescape. It won't affect my release times much, I'll still release every 1-3 days unless I'm not at a computer. Still, I just thought you'd want to know that I disgust myself. Yeah... Either way, I've got some humour in here, some annoyances, some reluctance, etc. Oh, and there's more description in the first 500 words. Noticed that?
Darkfire: Uhh, should I apologize at this point? The story NO. THE CHAPTER, NOT STORY! is lemon-centric... =/ it was all I could come up with on short notice. Also, on her pride... Don't you think good ol' onee-sama + Tsukune can help out with that? Yeah, yeah, yeah... Essentially, Kokoa could complain that he/she (lmao) is a human, etc, etc... Then Moka points out that Tsukune was a human, pretends to get all offended. Kokoa wants to please her onee-sama so she gives it a shot... could work, don't you think?
Sinistellerz: Right on! (Versus left on!)
Ou-Rex: Yeah, when I consciously try at descriptions, I'll skip the parts that need them the most. It's also a problem cuz I don't proofread. I'm actually cutting into my shower time by writing this reply... Be glad :( Lol, thanks for reading, and I'll get to your story ASAP. (I'm lazy, and apparently a rune-addict)
Ghostknight: Humour, just for you. I read 'Meet Moka's Parents', I actually stole the wedding portion from it. I did ask dogsfang if it was alright (since he doesn't read my stories, I thought it'd be polite to ask. Ou-rex is special). Anyways, I can't promise that I'll never kill anybody off, but I won't for now. Is that good enough?
On with the show! (Skipped to the end of ceremony)
"You are now Mrs. Aono Moka, and Mr. Aono Tsukune," The monk solemnly said, after having completed the ritual. It was quite a simple ritual, a few binding words; a couple of spells, the usual. By the time they were done, Tsukune was nearly exhausted from the time they'd spent standing and talking. It felt so stuffy. At that point, he paused to look around and re-view the bland sights. The walls were light beige, and there was a deep-brown shouji 15 metres behind them. Tsukune and Moka were standing in front of an altar, while the monk was standing behind it reading from some pages. Leading up to the altar were tatami which were red compared to the beige of the others inhabiting the floor. All in all, the room was a fusion of Western and Japanese style design.
"Please follow me," The monk broke Tsukune out of his reverie by speaking again in his quiet voice. Moka and Tsukune followed the monk out through the shouji into a hallway which was far more majestic compared to the earlier room they were in. The walls were inscribed with gold pictures and words, all detailing the quest of heroic Vampires. The gold contrasted nicely with the silver walls, and greatly complemented the red, velvet floor. Tsukune noticed that the hallway they were nearing had a black floor, and the walls were nearly replaced by doors. Each door had a specific number and a color on it. Tsukune assumed that green meant the room was occupied, yellow meant it was reserved, and green meant it was free. The three of them continued to walk until they reached a room which had a yellow card with the letters 'Aka-Aon' inscribed upon the card, nearby the number '1337'. The monk fished a key out of his beige cloak and attached it to the door, causing a clicking sound to be heard.
"You'll be left here until tomorrow morning, after the sun has risen. All your essentials will be provided, and I will leave clean robes outside of the door," The monk explained, as he gestured towards various parts of the room. "I wish you luck in your union," The monk nodded his head in parting.
As the monk walked back down the hallway, Tsukune and Moka hesitantly entered the room. Tsukune looked around for a moment, surprised that it was nearly bare save for the king-sized bed in the corner, and the large Jacuzzi within the bathroom. Tsukune threw his jacket over the lone sofa that was wisely sitting there, and stared at Moka for a minute, before going to the washroom. "I'll be taking a bath," Tsukune told Moka, as he stripped down and entered the pre-filled Jacuzzi. Moka stared hesitantly at the bathroom door and she sat on the sofa heaving a large sigh.
"What's the problem?" Inner Moka asked through the rosary. "Did you not want this?"
"I did, it's just that…" Moka trailed off. "I'm not sure if I'm ready," she whispered, after a pause.
"It's your choice," Inner Moka finally said, after a brief pause. "I'll wait for you to agree."
"Really?" Moka's face lit up a little, as if a huge burden had been lifted off of her shoulder.
"Of course," Inner Moka replied. "Though you're the one who'll have to tell him."
Moka imperceivably frowned for a moment. "Alright…" She hesitantly replied, putting an end to their conversation.
At that point, Tsukune exited the bathroom, with only a towel around his waist. Moka eyed his muscles for a moment and quickly looked back up at him. "You can take a bath now," Tsukune gently said, as if he were aware of the inner turmoil she was facing.
Moka gave Tsukune a small smile and hurriedly entered the bathroom. She slowly stripped down to nothing and entered the Jacuzzi, releasing a content sigh as the water helped ease her tension.
Tsukune reluctantly looked towards the bathroom, and took extra bed sheets out of the closet. He spread them over the couch and stared at his make-shift bed for a moment. In a sense, it was hilarious that the first time he was sleeping on the couch was his wedding night. 'It's what she wants,' he mentally reminded himself, and he looked for a book of some sort to read. There was nothing. 'Maybe there's more to a wedding night than just sex?' Tsukune chided himself for not bringing something. Suddenly, he remembered the rubix cube which he'd brought to Castle Akashiya. Was it still there…? Tsukune peered inside his jacket pocket for a moment and grinned. He still had the unsolved rubix cube. 'I never thought I'd be happy to see an unsolved rubix cube…' Tsukune mentally mused.
At that point, Moka walked out – in her clothing – and looked at the couch for a moment. "Why are there bed sheets on the couch?"
"Well, I thought you'd want the whole bed to yourself," Tsukune grinned. "I am a bed-hogger."
"Are you sure you want to sleep on the couch?" Moka asked concernedly. "I wouldn't mind if you slept with me…"
"It's fine," Tsukune assured her. "I don't really mind. I had to sleep on the streets back when I was travelling." Moka frowned and was about to say something, when Tsukune smiled reassuringly. "It's fine."
Moka sighed, aware that he wouldn't budge. After a three-minute stare-down with Tsukune, Moka finally gave up and crawled into bed. She had a plan. Sadly, Moka fell asleep quite some time before her plan could be enacted.
Tsukune looked at the sleeping face of Moka adoringly, and finally went to sleep on the couch.
Tsukune was awoken by a weight on his chest, and the sound of a door slamming open. Tsukune winced and looked down. He was amazed to see that Moka had gotten on the couch and slept with him. Then, finally realizing something, Tsukune looked towards the door and his eye twitched in annoyance. Kokoa was standing at the door.
"Unhand my onee-sama!" Kokoa yelled, as she charged towards Tsukune. At that point, Tsukune had an epiphany. There was only one way to get rid of Kokoa. Tsukune looked towards the window, and at that point, Kokoa jumped. Tsukune knew that her angle of descent would cause her to land directly on Moka's head. What kind of husband would he be if he let her have her way? Right before Kokoa landed, Tsukune grabbed Kokoa's shirt and threw her towards the window with all his might. "ONEEE-SAAMAAAAA!!!!" Kokoa cried, as she flew towards the window. Tsukune winced when he heard the sounds of broken glass, and the accompanying thud.
"Will she be alright…?" Tsukune frowned. He looked down towards Moka to see if she was still asleep.
"Tsukune…" Moka murmured, snuggling closer to him.
Tsukune smiled and patted her head softly. Morning seemed to come far too quickly, and Moka eventually woke up, and smiled brightly at Tsukune. "Morning," Tsukune greeted, with a smaller smile.
"How was your sleep?" Moka asked.
"I was awoken by a little kid with red hair," Tsukune replied. "I threw her out of the window."
"She better be alive…" Moka pretended to glare at Tsukune. "How did she even get in here?"
"I wouldn't know…" Tsukune muttered, also wondering the same thing. "Maybe she snuck in?"
"Then how did you wake up?"
"I'm surprised you didn't… She slammed the door and literally screamed."
"I enjoyed myself!" Moka pouted for a moment. Suddenly, as if remembering something, Moka quickly looked outside, and gasped in awe. "It's beautiful…" She murmured.
Tsukune looked outside, to see the sunrise, shaping the sky into molten gold and bronze. In the distance, they could see a few of the other couples also looking at the sunrise with less awe. "They don't seem to be enjoying themselves," Tsukune pointed out.
"Well, Vampires are supposed to be stoic," Moka sighed. "I suppose I'd be considered a failure by the Vampiric race."
"I told you already," Tsukune sternly reprimanded Moka. "You're not a failure. If you ever become one, you'll be my failure."
Moka unwillingly laughed. "How do you know just what to say?"
"I love you enough to think of them," Tsukune replied with a grin playing on his face. "I think we should head back, right?"
"We don't have to…" Moka sighed. "We could stay like this forever…"
"As appealing as that sounds…" Tsukune sighed, "I think we have some parents to talk to…"
Moka winced, "They'd love to hear what happened last night."
"Oh, I'm sure," Tsukune laughed in agreement. "They won't mind, as long as we're happy."
"I wonder…" Moka sighed, "I just hope I don't get 'the talk'."
"Didn't you already…?"
"Well, whenever I've done something wrong, mother punishes me by 'educating me'."
Immediately, Tsukune's head was filled with erotic, incestual pictures which he couldn't remove. At that point, he had a nosebleed, which didn't escape Moka's notice.
"Just what are you thinking of…?" Moka's brow twitched as she glared at Tsukune. "Don't you understand the difference between talking and actions…?" She slowly spoke, irritation laced within each syllable.
"Of course I do…" Tsukune nervously replied. "Oh, look at the time! I'd better get changed!" Tsukune tried to get up, but was held down by Moka.
"Maybe…" She seductively smirked, "I should just punish you…"
Tsukune gulped, "I-it's fine…"
"Oh, are you sure?" Moka pouted, enjoying the agony which was prominently displayed on Tsukune's face.
"Com-completely," Tsukune replied, his voice having cracked at some point.
"That's a shame," Moka pouted even deeper, before finally releasing him. Tsukune ran off to the bathroom, while Moka laughed in the background.
Tsukune exited the bathroom, and walked past Moka. At that point, Moka walked past him to go to the bathroom, her hip barely brushing against his hand. Tsukune's hand was tingling, and too much blood was flowing to his face. 'Tease…'
After Moka and Tsukune had both gotten ready to leave, they exited the festival grounds, and went to a waiting limo. Tsukune got inside, and was surprised to see that Lord Akashiya and Ayako were both inside.
"So, did you enjoy your time at the festival?" Lord Akashiya grinned knowingly.
"It was alright…" Moka conceded hesitantly, having finally gotten into the limousine.
"Just alright?" Ayako teased. "You're not that bad, are you, onii-san?"
"Oh, I'm far better than that…" Tsukune laughed. "We just never went that far."
"Tsukune!" Moka hissed, annoyed that he'd said it before everybody was there.
"You didn't get that far?" Lord Akashiya frowned. "Let me guess… was he a little… slow?"
Moka blushed fiercely, "We didn't…"
"Our clothes stayed on the entire time," Tsukune assured Lord Akashiya. "Sorry to disappoint."
"No, I think you're far more disappointed than I am," Lord Akashiya laughed. "I don't mind, but your mother, on the other hand…"
Moka frowned. "I don't want to face her."
"You'll have to," Tsukune replied, as he put a comforting hand on her shoulder.
"But I don't want to!" Moka complained.
"Is there something I'm missing?" Ayako frowned, as she looked between the two.
"Moka's mother punishes her by talking about sex," Akashiya explained.
"Where's the problem…?" Ayako frowned.
"It's embarrassing!" Moka whined, putting her head into Tsukune's shoulder.
"You'll live…" Tsukune assured her. "Besides, don't you think you're concentrating on it too much? It affects us more than it affects her…"
"Unfortunately," Lord Akashiya sighed. "She wants grandchildren."
Tsukune's eyes bulged out of their sockets. "This isn't good…"
"Exactly!" Moka agreed, "Now you see why I've been complaining?"
"So just have kids, then." Ayako offered the obvious solution.
"We're still in school…" Tsukune and Moka replied monotonously and simultaneously.
"You're rich; can't you afford to take care of one kid?" Ayako frowned, "Or you have to make her focus on something else…"
"Like?" Tsukune leaned forward eagerly, waiting for an answer.
"I wouldn't know," Ayako carelessly replied. "It's your problem…"
"She did like medieval weaponry a lot…" Akashiya mused.
"Then we have to find some medieval weaponry!" Tsukune proclaimed.
"I know just the place…" Akashiya grinned.
To Be Continued
Ooh, where do you think they're gonna go? (Somebody give me the name of that djinn city please? It's in a lot of fics, and it removes illusions, etc, but I forgot the name). Well, that bracketed portion pretty much spoiled it. Oh well. Do you think Tsukune and Moka will ever get a lemon? Should I just keep this fic clean? Meh, whatever. Will Ayako/Kokoa/Kahlua ever find true love? (Random. I wanna know your opinion on that)
Kay, anyways, I gotta shower. Later guys :).
OH PS: You guys missed an error in my last chapter. I'm not correcting it till somebody points it out.
Laterz.
