Ryuko happily walked around now, knowing that she was to be married to her lover. Satsuki shared her happiness, looking at her ring finger and thinking of how much Ryuko means to her and how she felt when she said yes. Ryuko made her way down to the garage to go out on her Kawasaki Ninja for a little while. She put on her riding jacket and helmet, then rode out. Feeling particularly giddy now, she popped a wheelie while she was leaving the mansion driveway, and held it for a little ways. She rode around town, going down main street. While she went zipping past the jewelry store she visited when she went after the necklace, she saw a familiar vehicle parked outside. It was Jakuzure's car, and curiosity got the better of Ryuko. She stopped and went in to see Jakuzure looking around over by the wedding/engagement rings. "You looking for something nice for Mako?" Ryuko inquired.
"Yep. I wanted to get her something she'll like." Jakuzure said, looking back at the rings after looking to Ryuko.
"What are you doing over here, though?" Ryuko continued, not showing her left hand.
"Umm... well, I guess... it should be pretty clear what I'm doing in this section."
Ryuko cracked a smile. "Heh, you're gonna ask her, aren't you?"
"Please, don't tell anyone yet. Her mom and dad are already okay with it, and I wanted to surprise her with it today."
"Ah, okay. Your secret is safe with me." Ryuko chuckled. "By the way, she likes light blue."
"Okay, thanks for the info- wait, how do you know that?"
"We've been friends for a while, and we did have that one date. I know alot about her."
Jakuzure went with Ryuko's suggestion and picked out a silver ring with light blue gems and paid for it. "I really hope she says yes."
"She probably will. She really likes you, ya know."
...
Jakuzure went over to Mako's to ask her out on a date. She went to knock, but the door opened as she was about to, with Mako standing there to greet her. She reached out for a hug and kiss, which she received with joy. "Hey, miss Nonon. Whatcha doin'?" Mako asked with her usual smile.
"I wanted to take you out tonight, maybe even a sleepover after, if your folks are okay with it."
"I'll ask!" Mako responded cheerily.
She went to ask her parents if she could go out then have a sleepover, which they said was okay. Sukuyo peeked out from the kitchen and saw Jakuzure standing there by the door with her hands in her pockets. She winked at Jakuzure, who winked back as she pulled the jewelry box from her pocket to give Sukuyo a quick glance of it. Mako went to her room and packed a bag with some clothes and went out the door with Jakuzure. "So, anywhere in particular you want to go?" Jakuzure asked her.
"Wherever you wanna go." Mako replied.
"That's the point of me asking you."
"Umm, I guess we could go down the boardwalk and go to that spot on the beach we went to when we got frisky that one time."
"Sounds good to me. But this time, let's save it for when we're at my place."
Mako started blushing, thinking about being intimate again. "I'd like to do that again. But like you said, at your house."
They walked down the boardwalk, holding hands the entire time. They stopped at a familiar snack stand and got some fried candy bars with powdered sugar on them and ate them as they kept walking until they came to the entrance for the path to their favorite spot. Being kind of playful, Jakuzure hiked Mako up on her back, riding piggyback to carry her the rest of the way down to the beach. They took off their shoes and walked down to the water's edge, where they held each other close for a good while. "Ooh, Miss Nonon, I love you so much." Mako said, squeezing the breath from her.
"I *cough* love you too, Mako."
After spending their time at the beach, they started heading for Jakuzure's house.
...
Ryuko stopped in town to pick up something for Satsuki and herself to have for dinner. She sent Satsuki a message to not have the cooks prepare anything when she got to the restaurant. She had heard about this particular place online, and decided it was worth a try. It wasn't a huge place, and the prices for the quality and amount of food were pretty good. The smells of the food coming from the place were intoxicating, even more so since Ryuko was a bit hungry already. She picked up their meals, strapped them down on her bike and headed out for home. She rode carefully, so as to not lose any of the food.
She returned home and went to meet Satsuki in the dining room, where the places were already set for the two of them. They sat down and proceeded to dig in. "This stuff smells pretty good. What did you bring us?" Satsuki asked, taking in the pleasant aromas of the food.
"For you, the Shrimp and onion tempura with vinegared wakame and cucumbers, and for me, the pan broiled salmon and vegetables." Ryuko answered, licking her lips as she handed out the meals.
Satsuki bit down on the shrimp and was amazed at the texture. It was a nice, fried crunch, but it wasn't too crunchy or soggy. Her dish also had the perfect amount of batter for flavor but not so much as to overpower the shrimp and onion. The vinegared wakame and cucumbers offered her a nice meshing of flavors. She started thinking to herself, "Wow, she picked this out and it was a hit."
Ryuko ate away at her dish, also loving the flavors and textures. The salmon was cooked to perfection and the vegetables had a nice bite to them. The ladies shared bites of their dishes with one another, which they both enjoyed. After finishing up and clearing the table, they went to sit together on the couch. Satsuki put her arm around Ryuko and gave her a kiss on the cheek. "You know, my lips are right here." Ryuko said, puckering up.
"I know, but after what we just ate, I didn't think my breath was too fresh right now." Satsuki told her.
"I ate the same stuff, and besides, I don't care about your breath. I'd just like a kiss, please."
"I can't say no to you." Satsuki responded, kissing her on the lips this time.
"See? That wasn't so bad."
"I wanted to do that from the start."
...
Jakuzure walked Mako through the front door and they sat their things down, then stood together in a brief hug. Jakuzure felt as though the time was good for her to ask the biggest question she'd ever ask anyone. She asked Mako to dance with her, which she didn't refuse. "Aww, you're being sweet again." Mako said.
They danced around the living room, doing simple dance moves and dips. At the end of one dance, Jakuzure stopped and asked Mako to stay there. Mako started to feel her heart rate going up slightly when she saw Jakuzure going down on one knee in front of her. "Mako Mankanshoku, in the time we've been together, I've loved you like I've never loved anyone before. You've filled a hole in my life that I didn't even know was there at first." She stopped to pull the jewelry box from her pocket and opened it to show the ring. "Miss Mankanshoku, will you marry me?"
Mako felt her head swirling and she fainted, but Jakuzure caught her on the way down. "H-hey, wha happened?" Mako asked groggily.
"I just asked you to marry me, and you fainted. Thank god I caught you."
"Oh, you did just ask me that." Mako said, starting to gather herself. "My answer is yes. I will marry you."
Mako kept still while Jakuzure slipped the ring on her finger. They got up and went to hit the shower together. They scrubbed each other head to toe, taking their time. While the water was still running and the soap was running down the drain, Jakuzure moved Mako up against the wall and she went down on her knees in front of her. She gently kissed Mako on her intimate spot then got to work. She licked her slowly for a couple of minutes, then decided to use her fingers. She pushed her index and middle fingers inside, which made Mako weak in the knees. Jakuzure pushed up into her fiance's weight, which made her moan and start to grab at the handles in the shower. Jakuzure could see Mako's abdominal muscles tightening up, and looked down to see her toes curling up from the pleasure. When Mako had enough, she reached down and patted Jakuzure on the shoulder. "You're done? I can keep going if you want." Jakuzure told her.
"N-nah, I'm good." Mako replied, with a satisfied look on her face.
"Well, how about we go get dressed and watch some TV before bed?"
"Sounds great!"
...
The next day, Satsuki and Ryuko had invited everyone over for a tea party to announce their engagement. Ryuko walked over to have a word with Jakuzure. "So, what did she say?"
Jakuzure beamed a smile. "Yes. She said yes!" She replied, showing Ryuko her ring.
"Hmm, seems we both have some news for everyone."
"Something with you and Lady Satsuki?"
"Yep. Same thing as you and Mako." Ryuko told her, also showing her own ring. "This little tea party is also for us to announce our engagement. If you'd like, I suppose you two could announce yours as well."
"Sounds like a plan."
At the height of the party, Satsuki called everyone's attention over to herself and Ryuko. Ryuko whispered in her ear about Mako and Jakuzure, and she looked over at them and smiled. "Everyone, Ryuko and myself have some great news. We're no longer just girlfriends. I asked her to marry me, and she said yes." She said, both herself and Ryuko showing their rings.
"It appears that Mako and Jakuzure have some news as well." Ryuko said, raising her glass to them.
Jakuzure was holding Mako from behind in a hug, and Mako held out her hand to show her own ring. "Miss Jakuzure will soon be Mrs Jakuzure, and so will I!" Mako chirped.
Everyone applauded both couples' good news. The recently engaged couples hugged and kissed their respective partners.
...
While Jakuzure was walking Mako home, she brought up another big step for them. "Hey, id thinking... When we do get married, you should move in with me." Jakuzure told her.
"Omigosh, yes! I'd love that! We'll be happily married, and we'll be living together! That's the future I've always dreamed of."
"Did you mean it though? You want to take my last name?" Jakuzure asked, feeling warm inside again.
"Yep. I was also thinking, maybe I could be the housewife. I'll take care of things at home, and you'll just come home from work and relax."
"You don't have to do all that," Jakuzure continued. "This will be an equal partnership."
"That can be my share of it. I'll take care of the house and the kids, and when you come home from work, you just sit back and relax."
"If that's-" Jakuzure started, but picked up on what Mako had just said. "Wait, kids?"
"Yep. I know we can't get each other pregnant, but we'll figure something out."
The ladies finally made it to Mako's house and they went inside. They took their usual place and waited for everyone to gather so they could tell Mako's family the news. Once everyone was gathered, Mako started to tell them. "Mom, dad, Mataro, guts, I have something important to tell you all. Or rather, we have something to tell you."
Jakuzure kissed Mako on the cheek and picked up where Mako left off. "This wonderful, beautiful, amazing lady right here has given me something."
Mako finished the sentence. "I gave her my hand. My left hand." She finished, holding up her left hand and showing them the ring.
"Well, it looks like our little girl is going to settle down." Barazo chuckled with a sense of pride.
"I can't say I'm surprised." Sukuyo added.
"My sis is getting married? Damn, I thought I was gonna get a hottie first." Mataro teased.
"It's not just us, either. Lady Satsuki and Ryuko are engaged as well." Jakuzure told them.
"The love bug must be working overtime." Sukuyo said with a smile.
