It was morning and Hitomi woke up to see a bunch of dresses on a chair by
her bed and Merle looking out the window "Oh good your up" Merle said
walking over to the dresses and looking threw them "Here put this on" Merle
said throwing a dark green dress and a bunch of undergarments "What is
this?" Hitomi said holding something up Merle threw at her "That's a
corset" Merle said dragging Hitomi out of bed "I'm not wearing that" Hitomi
protested "You have to" Merle said "I'd rather walk out the room naked then
wear that" Hitomi said crossing her arms over her chest "Ok, fine go out
there naked" Merle said pointing to the door "Ugh! Fine but don't out it on
tight" Hitomi said defeated and started to disrobe.
"Holy shit!" Merle yelled "What?!" Hitomi asked concerned "Hitomi you are so beautiful I cannot believe my eyes, as soon as Lord Van sees you I bet he's gonna screw the small talk and jump on you" Merle said laughing "C'mon let's go" Merle said grabbing Hitomi's hand "No, wait no Merle wait" Hitomi said "What is it Hitomi?" Merle asked "Ummm it's the neckline.it's really low, I have this bad feeling it's.it's all.gonna fall out." Hitomi said a bit embarrassed, Merle bursted out laughing "That's the whole point Hitomi, we want Van to look" Merle said grinning "But, I don't want Van to look" Hitomi said "Oh shut up Hitomi" Merle said grabbing Hitomi's hand and leaving the room.
They walked past some male servants who totally stopped what they were doing and stared at Hitomi as she walked by, both Merle and Hitomi started giggling.
They past by some guards who almost dropped their weapons, Hitomi was smiling like crazy "Now.it's Van time, are you ready?" Merle asked, Hitomi shook her head yes slowly.
They entered the dinning room and everyone dropped their utensils and stared at Hitomi, Van almost fell out of his chair. She was exquisite, pure awe; she was radiant and very luscious.
"You totally have Lord Van's attention" Merle whispered and sat down with Hitomi. "Lady Hitomi, may I say you are looking very beautiful today" General Dunwal said "Thank you" Hitomi said and smiled.
'She's way more then just beautiful dumbass' Van said in his thoughts then glanced at Hitomi who was talking with Merle and giggling. Breakfast was over and Van practically ran over to Hitomi, and Merle obviously noticed. "Hey Hitomi! .Merle" Van said giving Merle a warning look "Hi Van" Hitomi said 'Now tell her you love her' Van said in his thoughts "You look really nice today" 'Damnit'.
"Lord Van I hate to interrupt you r conversation with these two beautiful woman but Princess Aleesha from the country of Kurast is here" General Dunwal said "What the hell? Why?!" Van said a little pissed "Well, I believe you have forgotten that there is a ball tonight and Princess Aleesha is your escort.remember?" General Dunwal said "Mother fuck**" "Noooooooo!!!" Merle yelled out "Lord Van is not going to the ball with Princess Aaliyah or whatever her name is, he is going with Hitomi and that's final! And if you don't do as I say I will scratch off your mother fucki**" "Merle!!" Hitomi shouted "What?" Merle asked "Maybe Van does want to go to the ball with Prin****" "No! There is no way in hell I'm I going with Princess Aleesha" Van said "Yes Lord Van but Princess Aleesha is going to be very upset, she was looking forward to spending the night with you" General Dunwal said. Van shuddered "Ugh." he said quietly for only Merle and Hitomi to hear, Hitomi smiled and turned her head so she wouldn't burst out laughing "So? I'll show her something to be upset about" Merle said showing her nails to General Dunwal "I'll go to tell her right away" General Dunwal said and left quickly. "That's what I thought" Merle said smiling over her victory "Thank you Merle" Van said "No problem it's my job" Merle said still smiling. "So.Hitomi.want to.uh.go with me.to.uh.you know.the ball tonight" Van said scratching the back of his head, looking away from Hitomi, scared of what she will say "I'd love to Van" Hitomi said smiling, a big smile was plastered on Van's face "That's great! Then.I guess I'll see you tonight in the ball room" Van said still smiling then left.
"Yes! Tonight's the night Hitomi! I can feel it" Merle said dragging Hitomi back to her room.
Van entered his room and closed the door quickly and jumped on his bed "Yes! Scores! Tonight's the night I'm going to tell Hitomi my true feelings for her".
*** "Great! The neckline is low again," Hitomi said complaining "Oh stop complaining Hitomi" Merle said while she finished doing Hitomi's hair. Hitomi was wearing a silvery green dress and her hair was up with white and pink flowers in her hair "Ok, now for your make up" Merle said "Makeup? I don't want to wear makeup" Hitomi said "Ugh! How about only a little bit?" Merle suggested, Hitomi thought about it "Fine, only a little though" Hitomi agreed "Yay!" Merle said and started to do Hitomi's makeup. Merle put on black eyeliner, then green eye shadow with green and silver sparkles ontop then a little bit of mascara, then she put on some pink lip gloss stuff on her lips.
"Wow" Merle said in awe, Hitomi smiled "You are so getting layed tonight" Merle said laughing "Merle!" Hitomi said and hit her playfully on the arm "C'mon I wanna go show you off" Merle said grabbing Hitomi's arm and leaving.
*** Van was wearing his formal outfit, the same one he wore when he was announced king the first time Hitomi came to Gaea. He didn't want to wear it but he had to since there were going to be kings, queens and unfortunately lots of princess' at the ball and he had to look "important".
When he walked into the ballroom everyone stopped what they were doing, even the music stopped and everyone bowed and curtsied. He walked around looking for Hitomi, who he guessed was still with Merle getting ready 'Why does it take so long for women to get ready?' he thought. He passed by some young girls about his age who were giggling; he rolled his eyes and continued to walk around waiting for Hitomi to come. He saw Princess Aleesha and quickly turned around, he didn't want her to see him. He saw Allen and started walking towards him, when he felt someone tap his shoulder; he turned around quickly praying it was Hitomi. It wasn't. It was a young girl his age blushing madly "Can I help you?" Van asked "Ummmm I was wondering if you would like to dan**" Merle shoved her out of the way almost knocking he to the ground, Merle heard the girl say bitch "Fuck you too" Merle said giving the girl a dirty look. "Hi Lord Van! Look Hitomi's here" Merle said shoving Hitomi into his face, Van stepped back to look at Hitomi, she was gorgeous, he wanted to kiss her so bad and tell he loved her with all his heart and then rape her, he smiled evilly at the thought.
"She's looking mmm mmm good huh Van?" Merle said grinning, Van pushed her out of the way and walked towards Hitomi who was blushing after what Merle said about her "Hitomi you look beautiful, your like the soft petal of a rose or the Mystic Moon in the night sky and the stars are sparkling diamonds" Van said looking at her in pure awe, Hitomi was blushing madly now over what Van had just said to her "Oh.Van.I don't know what to say" Hitomi said putting her hands to her cheeks to cool them off "It's ok I know I look good" Van said grinning, Hitomi laughed her blush now fading away. "Oh look there's Allen let's go greet him" Van said holding his arm out for her to hold, they walked over to where Allen was with his sister Celena "Allen!" Hitomi yelled excitedly, Allen turned around to see Van and a familiar face but he didn't know who is was, Hitomi hugged him, Allen was shocked there was a woman hugging him and he didn't even know who it was until she looked up at him "Oh Allen I missed you too and Princess Millerna and Dryden and your crew" Hitomi said looking up at him, Allen looked down at her and into her sparkling green eyes "Hitomi?" Allen said, Hitomi nodded and smiled, Allen hugged her "Wow Hitomi I didn't even realize it was you, damn you've changed a lot over these past 3 years" Allen said kissing her hand, Hitomi blushed.
Van felt kind of jealous of Allen but he didn't worry about it too much. "Is this your sister Celena Allen?" Hitomi asked looking at the beautiful silvery haired young woman beside Allen "Yes it is, and I am very proud of her progress she's been learning a lot over these past years I'm so happy to finally have her back" Allen said.
Van didn't go near Celena he didn't like the fact that she was Dilandau. "Wow I've always wanted to meet you Celena" Hitomi said hugging Celena "So have I lady Hitomi" Celena said hugging Hitomi back. Hitomi stiffened and everything went black.
~*~*~*~ Hitomi was standing and looking around except she couldn't see anything since it was dark. Then the room was lit up by fire and she saw Celena's naked body lying on the floor and there was a symbol painted on her stomach the same symbol was painted on her forehead as well. Hitomi's hands went to her mouth, Celena was raped but by who? Then the scene changed and it looked like she was in a temple and she was standing in the middle of a star that was painted on the ground and at the end of each angle of the star there was a symbol. Then the scene changed again she was a young woman with long white hair and baby blue eyes, she wasn't old she looked very young maybe the same age as Hitomi. The woman looked like she had elf ears and she had two little pink dots on her forehead, she had a long gown that was white, gold, red and a big purple bow that was tied around her slim waist. There was also a man there with longer hair then the woman, he resembled a lot like Van's older brother Folken. He wore black and gold armour and his belt he had a golden dragons head that looked like he had chips of an energist used for the eyes. She heard the woman talk about a prophecy about angels, warriors, gods and goddess' then the woman turned and looked right at Hitomi, it was like the woman knew Hitomi was there, Hitomi felt light headed and fainted into the darkness.
~*~*~*~ Hitomi fluttered her eyes open, she was in someone's arms "Look she's awake" Hitomi heard Allen say "Hitomi? Are you alright?" Van said, Hitomi sat up and looked at Van "Ya.ya I'm alright" Hitomi said touching her head "Did you hurt yourself?" Allen asked "No." Hitomi said looking around, she noticed she was still in the ballroom and some people were looking at her but she didn't care right now, she just wanted to know what her vision was about. "Where's Celena?" Hitomi asked "I'm right here lady Hitomi" Celena said holding her hand, Hitomi smiled "You don't need to call me "lady" Hitomi just call me Hitomi, everyone else does" Hitomi said while Celena helped her up. "Come with me, let's get you something to drink" Celena said walking away with Hitomi to get a drink. "Well that was interesting" Allen said looking at Van who looked very concerned of what just happened "Do you think she had a vision?" Van asked Allen "Yes I do" Allen said looking at the two young women getting drinks. The two men were silent for a while until Allen finally broke the silence.
"Well Van you've changed a lot over the years.how old are you?" Allen asked changing the subject, Van cocked up and eyebrow ' Why the hell does he want to know how old I am?' Van thought with a weird look on his face "I'm 18.why?" Van asked "I was just curious.I'm surprised your not married yet, most young kings your age are already married and are starting a family and an heir to the thr***" "Do you have to bother me about this too? What don't people understand; I don't want to marry a stupid fake princess! I want to spend the rest of my life with someone I love; I don't want to spend the rest of my life living some sick fantasy. The only person I want to marry is Hitomi because I lo**" Van realized what he said, everyone is the room was silent and looking at him, Van looked at Hitomi who was blushing madly, his face was red, everyone just kept on staring so he ran out of the ballroom.
Everyone was looking at Hitomi now knowing who she was "That's right" Merle said out loud so everyone could hear "Lord Van loves Hitomi so all of you sluts stay away from him" Merle said, Hitomi just stood there everything was just starting to process threw her mind. She then left the ballroom in search for Van.
Hitomi looked all over the palace, but there was no sign of Van, she went outside into the gardens, she walked around for a while until she saw Escaflowne and Van sitting on it's knee looking at the pendant she had given him.
"Van" Hitomi said walking over to him, Van saw Hitomi and started blushing again he turned around so she couldn't see him. "Van come down don't be embarrassed, it's ok I feel the same way." Hitomi said with a light shade of pink on her cheeks, Van looked at her she was so gorgeous 'Damn would I like to get my hands on her' he thought with a smile.
Van jumped down from Escaflowne's knee and walked a little closer to Hitomi, Hitomi ran into his arms and pressed herself against him "Oh Van I love you" she said still hugging him, he was as hard as a stone "Hitomi" "What is it Van?" "Don't mov*" he never got the chance to finish what he was going to say because she moved and she felt everything and her hands flew up to her mouth "Oh my god! Van!" Hitomi said shocked, Van's cheeks were pink 'Damn my hormonal self '. Van cursed himself mentally. Hitomi couldn't believe it, all she did was hug him, Van looked at his feet and cursed, Hitomi laughed. "What's so funny?" Van asked "Huh? Oh.I was just thinking about something," Hitomi said smiling "Thinking about what?" Van asked curious "I'm not gonna tell you.it's uh.a girl thing" she said still smiling.
"Hey do you hear that?" Hitomi said changing the subject "Hear what?" Van said "Music.I hear music" Hitomi said looking at Van, Van looked up at the castle the balcony doors were open in the ballroom, Van walked up to Hitomi "Would you like to dance?" Van asked holding his hand out "I'd love to dance with you" she said taking his hand and smiling her eyes never leaving Van's.
They started dancing under the stars and the Mystic Moon, people from inside started coming out from the ballroom to see the king and the beautiful girl dance in the night sky. Hitomi and Van didn't even notice everyone in the garden watching them dance; they were too engulfed in each other to care about anything else in the world. Their dance finished and everyone started clapping, Van and Hitomi finally realized that everyone was there saying that they were a cute couple, Van bowed and Hitomi curtsied. "Kiss the pretty girl!" a man yelled out "You go girl!" a woman shouted. A lot of people started making lewd comments and yelling them out, Van grabbed Hitomi's hand and ran into the castle to Van's room while the people whistled and cheered and made lewd noises.
The two if them ran into Van's room "I am so sorry about that, they must be drunk or something" Van said "It's ok.wow I like your room" Hitomi said changing the subject again and walking around Van's room looking at things "Thank you I designed it myself" Van said with a little smile, Hitomi noticed a door and wondered where it led to, she opened it up and then closed it quickly and walked over to Van "Van" "What is it Hitomi?" Slap Hitomi slapped Van across the face "What the.what the hell was that for?" Van asked confused "That door leads to my room, our rooms are attached, I bet you put me in there so you could watch me change didn't you, you pervert!" Hitomi yelled, Van gave her a weird look, and then it clicked "Whoa! No, no.no Hitomi I'm not like that, I put you in that room because I wanted you close to me." Van said turning away from Hitomi and walking to the balcony windows. ".At night, I would check up on you just to see if you were alright, and safe.Hitomi I would never invade on your privacy like that" Van said looking at her, Hitomi just stared at him "Oh." was all she said "You can go now if you wish" Van said looking out the windows, Hitomi just stood there staring at him, she couldn't believe what he said, she walked over to him and put her arms around his neck and kissed him, Van stiffened then relaxed while he kissed her back and put his hands around her waist and pulled her close to him.
They finally broke for air and they breathed heavily just looking into each other's eyes "Why did you kiss me?" Van asked "Because I love you" Hitomi said "I love you too" Van said and kissing her passionately. Hitomi started removing Van's clothes, she put her hand up his shirt and started rubbing his chest, Van picked her up and put her down on the bed and started to disrobe her. They managed to get all of their clothes off except their undergarments, the two lovers were still shy and were new to this exciting moment. Van looked into Hitomi's eyes like if he were asking her permission to remove the rest of her clothing that were covering her luscious body, Van also managed to get his boxers off as well. This night was an adventure for them as they shared their bodies.
"Holy shit!" Merle yelled "What?!" Hitomi asked concerned "Hitomi you are so beautiful I cannot believe my eyes, as soon as Lord Van sees you I bet he's gonna screw the small talk and jump on you" Merle said laughing "C'mon let's go" Merle said grabbing Hitomi's hand "No, wait no Merle wait" Hitomi said "What is it Hitomi?" Merle asked "Ummm it's the neckline.it's really low, I have this bad feeling it's.it's all.gonna fall out." Hitomi said a bit embarrassed, Merle bursted out laughing "That's the whole point Hitomi, we want Van to look" Merle said grinning "But, I don't want Van to look" Hitomi said "Oh shut up Hitomi" Merle said grabbing Hitomi's hand and leaving the room.

".At night, I would check up on you just to see if you were alright, and safe.Hitomi I would never invade on your privacy like that" Van said looking at her, Hitomi just stared at him "Oh." was all she said "You can go now if you wish" Van said looking out the windows, Hitomi just stood there staring at him, she couldn't believe what he said, she walked over to him and put her arms around his neck and kissed him, Van stiffened then relaxed while he kissed her back and put his hands around her waist and pulled her close to him.
They finally broke for air and they breathed heavily just looking into each other's eyes "Why did you kiss me?" Van asked "Because I love you" Hitomi said "I love you too" Van said and kissing her passionately. Hitomi started removing Van's clothes, she put her hand up his shirt and started rubbing his chest, Van picked her up and put her down on the bed and started to disrobe her. They managed to get all of their clothes off except their undergarments, the two lovers were still shy and were new to this exciting moment. Van looked into Hitomi's eyes like if he were asking her permission to remove the rest of her clothing that were covering her luscious body, Van also managed to get his boxers off as well. This night was an adventure for them as they shared their bodies.
