Disclaimer: The characters of Fushigi Yuugi don't belong to me. If they did, Chichiri and Tasuki would be sitting here with me fanning me while I typed.
This is Yaoi. This means that there is a male/male relationship. So for all those who don't like that, don't read! Easy enough for ya?
Swimming Lessons
Chapter Four
By Lady Firebird
"See, there it is, the spring that I promised you!" Chichiri pointed out the window to Tasuki. He looked the direction of Chichiri's pointing finger and gasped. It was beautiful. A waterfall fell into a pure pool of water. Water lilies floated on the surface, and a Nyan-nyan sat on a rock to dip her feet. "When did you want to start the swimming lessons?"
"Oh, anytime. Not today though. I just really want to eat, and go to bed." Tasuki replied. As soon as he finished speaking there was a knock on the door. Chichiri opened it to reveal a Nyan-nyan with a tray full of food.
"Taiiskun said that you're hungry. So, I brought this. Do you like your room? I think it's pretty! The bed is sooo big! Do you need more pillows? I can get more pillows!" The Nyan-nyan stopped to take a breath, and Tasuki took the tray from her and set it on a table.
"No, thank you! We're fine. The room is fine. Thank you!" Tasuki smiled at the girl, who grinned back, and then skipped out of the room.
"I'm going to talk with Taiiskun for a moment. I'll be back in a while. Leave me some food. No Da!" Chichiri left the room, and Tasuki started to eat.
"Do I smell food in here?" Miaka asked as she came into the room. "Ohh... looks good... but I can't have any. I'm still having morning sickness." But I wanted to talk to you Tasuki."
"Sure Miaka! What about?" Tasuki looked at the miko, and grinned inwardly. He loved Chichiri, but Miaka was the most beautiful girl that he had ever seen. All of her warriors loved her in their own fashion.
"How are things going with you and Chichiri?" Miaka asked.
"What do you mean? As friends, and traveling buddies, we're doing fine. Except for the whole lack of direction thing." Tasuki took a large bite of a bright red apple.
"No, I mean, you have a crush on him don't you?" And with that Tasuki started to choke on his apple. Miaka started to pound on his back. When he could breath, he managed to answer.
"How'd you know?" Tasuki turned a bright shade of red. He hadn't meant to say that. He was going to deny his feeling yet again. But there was something about Miaka that made everyone tell the truth.
"Oh, it's easy! You respect him, you listen to what he says, and actually think about it. Also I noticed the body language. You were standing very close, and you kept glancing at him." Miaka looked pleased with herself.
"Okay, yes. I like him... well, love him really. He's so beautiful, and kind, and patient with me. But I'm not going to tell him. He's a monk, and he's my best friend. I won't ruin our relationship." Tasuki glared at Miaka. "And you won't tell him either. He's not going to find out."
"All right Tasuki. But what if he came up to you, and told you that he liked you? Would you cat on it then?" Miaka smiled and waited for the answer that she knew was coming.
"Yes.... That would be the best day of my life." Miaka grinned, and wondered if Taiiskun had made as much progress with Chichiri as she had done with Tasuki.
