Chapter 2: Playing Match Maker!
A few days later…….
Aeka hadn't said much since her arrival, although she occasionally spoke with Master Long, and during meals, she showed none of her inner feelings. Wufei noticed all that clearly, even if she hadn't said much to him in the past few days.
The young pilot thought about this, even if he was unsure if he wanted to. Why did it bother him anyway? The fact that she didn't talk to him much. Why did he care? She was just some strange alien woman who appeared out of no where, with tears in her eyes. The tears, that always seemed to come first in his thoughts. Aeka may not be human, but she was no stranger to feelings and she was good at keeping them at bay.
"It must be her royal training." Wufei said to himself silently, sipping the hot green tea, staring out the window. The artificial scenery was beautiful, but that's not what he gazed at. His dark eyes were centered on a rather charming princess, who sat on a bed of grass in the gardens, dipping her fingers into the cool water of the small ponds.
Wufei's hand was hurt with pain from the small tea cup, but he ignored the heat, Aeka had him in a trance. The picture she made looked like a painting no painter could really put onto canvas. Meiran never made him feel like this. And it was a feeling he wasn't sure he liked.
"Wufei." The voice seemed to come out of no where, making the Chinese youth come back to reality. Upon arrival, he finally felt the stinging hot cup, and quickly set it down on a nearby table. Master Long had entered Wufei's room without him knowing it. Surely the older man must have seen how he was staring at Aeka. He should be angry for being spied on, instead he felt embarrassed, but he refused to blush.
"Sifu Long." He nodded once, greeting his teacher at the same time, rubbing his reddened fingers.
Master Long merely smiled, suppressing his laughter. He had caught Wufei, and the young pilot knew it, this was his chance to either tease Wufei, or ignore it. Which should he do? "Aeka-hime is rather enticing, isn't she?" He said; doing neither of his choices, glancing at her, then back at his student. Wufei nodded, relieved that his master hadn't said anything to embarrass him. He turned, leaning against the wall, closing his eyes. When Wufei didn't speak, Master Long did. "You know the Chinese Opera is visiting the Colony don't you?" He asked, looking at Aeka for a moment, waiting for a response.
"Hai." Was Wufei's reply as he continued to lounge against the wall, eyes closed.
The older man watched the young princess a bit longer before he spoke. "I've been thinking." He started. "Aeka has been here for a few days, and all she does is stay in her room, or go out into the gardens." The Chinese pilot opened his eyes, staring at the floor, silently listening to his teacher, wondering what he was thinking. "Perhaps you could show her around the Colony." Master Long continued, staring at Wufei expectantly. "Maybe you could take her to the Chinese Opera." Wufei blinked, not sure of what to say to the request. He looked his master in the eye, his expression blank. "She needs to get her mind off the confusion." Master Long added, trying to convince the gundam pilot to agree.
There was no way Wufei could deny his teacher's request. "Iiyo." He accepted the request, trying to ignore the same feelings he had whenever it involved Aeka. Especially since Sifu Long had this all planned out, very sly indeed.
As if on cure, Sifu Long grinned, pleased. "Arigato Wufei." He thanked pilot 05, before turning to leave, and then he paused, his back still turned. "Oh, and you might want to tend to that burn of yours." He chuckled, then left.
Wufei watched him leave, when the door closed behind his teacher, a small frown formed on his lips, and his eyes narrowed slightly. To think, he had let Sifu Long talk him into taking Aeka on a date. Wait a minute, did he mean a real date?
"What have I gotten myself into?" He asked himself out loud, shaking his head, confused.
Aeka sat beside the small pond, he knees beneath her, unaware of the arrangement that had been made. She had no idea that Wufei would be her escort, nor did she notice the effect she had on him. All that was on her mind was the fascination with the colony. Not to mention the calm state her body was in. For once, her mind was not on Tenchi or Yosho. Yes, she felt homesick for Jurai, but Tsunami had brought her here for a reason, yet it bewildered her. No matter how confused she was, she would not question her goddess.
"Learn to love again?" She repeated Tsunami's words, trying to figure them out. What did she mean? Aeka had known love, and it crushed her heart. But she was not about to think about it. She was away from them, and in a way, it could be consider a vacation from returning to Jurai, where she had an obligation as Crown Princess.
She closed her eyes, keeping her fingers in the cool water, lightly splashing, making small ripples form patterns. For a brief moment, a pair of jet black eyes along with a handsome face invaded her thoughts. The face she saw was neither Tenchi nor Yosho's, but Wufei's. This was probably the first time she let herself think about him. He was very kind in letting her stay with his clan, but it was not his generosity that caught her attention. His looks were one thing, but there was something about him that had her curious. He was mysterious in his own way, and the way he looked at her, it gave her stomach butterflies. She didn't know it, but she was experiencing the same unsure feelings as Wufei.
"Aeka." A voice interrupted her thoughts. She flushed, and looked up, hiding her startled expression. "Hai." She greeted Sifu Long with a smile, and stood up, bowing.
For the second time that day, the elder clan member had to suppress his laughter. First, he saw Wufei's embarrassment, now Aeka's. What a day. Both were dazed, and he must be the only one who could sense what they felt. Attraction, it was that simple. He had to admire their ability to hide it. This is what he thought, but he would say nothing about it. They would realize on their own. After all, he was no match maker; he was the head of the clan.
"Do you find the L5 Colony to your liking?" He asked.
Aeka nodded. "Hai, I find it rather fascinating."
"Hontoo ni?" Sifu Long raised an eyebrow, unconvinced. She had not been further than the gardens, and she needed to see more of the colony before he'd believe her. "Hime, I've been thinking…….maybe you'd like to see more of Colony L5 ne?" Aeka looked up at him, questioning, but waited for him to continue. "There's more to this colony than just my clan's home or the gardens. Wouldn't you like to see more than this? I'm sure you'd like it, your highness."
'Your highness?' The purple haired princess blinked at being referred to formally. Yes, she was royalty, but she did not expect anyone but her people to call her that. Not to mention this was the first time Sifu Long had acknowledged her royal status. In any case, her real question was, 'What was his real intention?'
"Aeka-Hime?" Sifu Long stared at her questioningly.
"Ne?" She asked, realizing she had gotten lost in her thoughts, not hearing the rest of what he had said.
Another small smile appeared on the elder man's face, looking at the young girl's innocent flush. "I said, if you like, Wufei will show you around."
Just saying his name made Aeka blush, and the request turned her cheeks pink. So this is what Sifu Long had in mind. To have her and Wufei go out, like a date. She didn't know what to be more embarrassed about, being alone with Wufei, or just the suggestion of it.
Using the training she had, Aeka hid her flushed cheeks behind a light smile, and faced the old man. "I would be honored to accept his invitation." She agreed, to please him. It would have been disrespectful to refuse; after all he had done for her. This was the only way she could think of to repay him, even if the idea of it unnerved her.
"I'm glad to hear it, Aeka-san." He grinned, satisfied.
Wufei sighed, shaking his head in disdain, not liking the fact that Sifu Long had weaseled him into going out with Aeka. It's not that he didn't like her, on the contrary, he found the Jurian Princess attractive. She had a way of making him feel unsettled, like his heart was slowly being stolen, and he hated to admit it. It made him feel weak, something he didn't like. Should he allow himself to feel like this?
He questioned it as he waited patiently for Aeka, leaning against the Clan's limousine, with his arms folded, his expression blank, deciding if he should keep his feelings at bay or give in to them. As a gundam pilot, he had to make the choice, which was more important, the Colonies, or her?
The sound of heels clicking meant that his waiting was over, and Aeka had arrived. He looked up to greet her only to be stunned at what his eyes perceived.
Aeka stood before him, dressed in a form fitting peach Chinese style gown that was slit on both thighs, designed with white tigers, which framed her slim figure to the hilt. The white shiny heels made her seem a bit taller, and more elegant. She wore her long purple hair in a high ponytail, and her lips were ruby red, making her red violet eyes seem more piercing. She blushed at his staring.
"Suteki." He whispered, captivated by her beauty, knowing his choice could wait.
