Pain of the Sword v2.0

Chapter 2

Disclaimer: I have tones of these started, but this is the only one that's worth reading so far. I don't own the Ronins, I own nothing cept my horse and I'm striving with her. I'm poor. The only thing I get out of these stories is happiness. Have fun, tell me if I need to revise something, or if you think something would be kewl.

"What's going on?" Kento asked rubbing his ears.

"So they're the ones?" A figure dressed in green and carrying a long saber appeared out of the smoke. The man raised an eyebrow in skepticism at the group of warriors.

"And who might you be?" Asked Ryo standing up.

"My name would be Itachi." He bowed for them, allowing his sandy blond hair to fall into his face.

"And I am Soyokaze." A man clad in blue leather pants appeared before them.

"No you two are highly rude." Two more men appeared at their side.

"Jay, pleasures all mine." The tall man smirked at them. He placed his hand on the well-tanned skin hidden under his ginger vest.

"I would be Atsui." The shorter man bowed to one knee then shot up in one fluid motion. As Atsui raised the sash he wore around his shoulder and chest swished at the bottom of his him-less pants.

The Ronins looked at the four men in questioning, then down at White Blaze for answers.

"I do believe we have something you would like old friend." Soyokaze declared pulling a soft pouch off his belt.

White Blaze's eyes opened wide and he licked his lips.

"Here it is your majesty." Itachi smiled at the tiger and handed him the small bag.

Mia was awakened by the slobbery kisses of a very deprived dog.

"All right boy, I'm up." She patted Toby's head gently. Mia set up and looked over at the clock on the nightstand, 6:49. With a sigh she snuggled back into the covers and closed her eyes.

Mia was awakened again when the curtains of the balcony were thrown open and the bright sunlight poured out onto her face. She moaned in protest and pulled the covers over her head.

"Come on Mia you've slept long enough." Terry called at her. A muffled 'no' was his only reply. Terry just shook his head, "Fine. If you're going to be stubborn I'll just have to get you out of that bed." He growled and jumped onto the bed. Mia squealed as he dug her out of the warm covers and pinned her to the bed.

"I give!" Mia laughed as Terry tickled her.

"Really?" He whispered huskily into her ear.

"Uh huh." Mia bit her lip and nodded girlishly.

"That's good." Terry grinned at her and began to trail light kisses from her lips down to the hollow of her neck. Mia giggled as he nipped at her neck.

"Yep real good." Mia smiled and Toby jumped on the bed.

"Ah Toby!" Terry bellowed at the large puppy.

"Oh Terry he just want some loven' too." Mia smiled and gave the dog a big hug.

"I swear that dog gets more affection than I do." Terry pouted and climbed off the bed.

"Hey Toby, Terry's jealous of you." Mia kissed the big dog on the head.

"I am not!" He yelled from the kitchen.

"Come on boy." Mia climbed off the bed and grabbed the robe on the chair. Toby followed her into the warm kitchen.

Terry was standing in front of the stove cooking eggs. Mia walked up behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist.

"Hungry love?" Terry asked. Mia nuzzled her head into the back of his neck. "I'll take that as a yes." He smiled and flipped the eggs onto a plate.

"Thank you." She smiled happily taking the plate from him.

"Oh you don't get off that easily." Terry grabbed her around the waist and placed her on the countertop.

"And what my I ask is good payment?" Mia threw her head to the side and smiled.

Terry dipped his head down and nibbled at her neck. Mia wrapped her legs around his lower chest and squeezed.

"Have I ever told you how much I love your legs? There so strong and long." He ran his hands up and down her legs in appreciation.

"Thousands of times dear." She nuzzled her head into his neck.

Terry rubbed her back effortlessly humming in her ear. Mia giggled as his breath tickled her ear.

"May I have this dance?" He whispered in her ear, placing Mia back on the floor

"I would love to, but where's the mus-" Terry cut her off with a kiss and started humming a bit louder.

Terry took one of Mia's hands in his and wrapped the other around her waist while Mia placed hers on his shoulder. Slowly they began to sway to the music Terry was creating. Gradually their steps became more professional and they waltzed around the kitchen.

Dipping and twirling, Mia laughed happily in her lover's arms.

Terry slowed the dancing down, dancing in box circles. He bent down and tucked his head underneath her chin.

"Mia." He whispered.

"Hum?" Mia stroked his hair with her eyes closed. Raising his head to her ear, he nibbled at it.

"Marry me?" Mia's eyes snapped open and looked into his crystal blue eyes in amazement.

"Wh-what?"

"Please be my wife Mia." Terry took her hand in his and placed a thin gold ban with a bloodstone surrounded by small sapphires.

"Oh Terry its so beautiful. I had read in books that it would be like this, but I never thought it would happen to me." Tear fell from her eyes.

"I love you Mia and will do anything for you. You will always have my heart Mia. Please...say you'll be mine." Hope and love laced his eyes as he looked down at her.

"I will!" Mia jumped into his arms kissing him all over, "I will! I will! I will so much!" Mia yelled as Terry hugged her. Toby barked and jumped around them.

Kento heard the red Viper roar up the driveway.

"Someone's here!" He bellowed up the stairs.

"Who?" Rowen asked walking down the steps buttoning his shirt.

"Don't know." Kento shrugged opening the door and walking outside.

"Hi guys." Mia stepped out of the car, her face glowing.

"Where have you been?!" Both men yelled running out to her.

Mia turned back to the car and waved to the driver. With a roar of the great engine, the driver was off.

"We've been pacing all night long worrying about you." Rowen scolded her as they walked in.

"Oh how sweet." She sighed, still not removing the silly giddy look from her face.

"Mia!" Ryo yelled at the top of the stairs.

"Hum?" She looked up at him eyes sparkling.

"Were have you been all night?!" He ran down the steps and shook her shoulders.

"Were have I been all night? I was at the performance which you all didn't want to attend." Mia scolded back.

"Why didn't you come back home?" Ryo still not letting his temper simmer.

"I don't have to tell you were I was all night. Its my own business!" She yelled at him.

"What's all the screaming about?" Sage asked at the top of the stairs.

"Mia- I'd like to know as well." Rowen crossed his arms over his chest.

"What is with you guys? I was having a perfect morning till this." She huffed.

"Well we didn't." Kento pointed out.

"Grrrr! CAN"T I HAVE SEX WITH MY BOYFRIEND AND NOT HAVE TO TELL YOU!" Mia shouted at them.

Four jaws dropped to the floor. Eyes popped out and eyebrows rose.

Mia's chest heaved from her screaming.

"Oh morning Mia. Good to see you back home. Did you have fun at the performance?" Cye walked in the house and Mia smiled and nodded at him.

"Yes very much thank you."

"That's good... My word that is a beautiful... engagement ring!" Cye gasped and walked up to Mia taking her hand.

"Thank you. Terry proposed to me this morning." Mia smiled.

"After you slept with him." Ryo murmured. Cye and Mia both shot him a look.

"Congrates." Rowen said with a hint of depression, which Mia didn't pick up.

"Yah hope you have a happy life together." Sage didn't smile.

Ryo nodded and walked off.

"Wow! Sweet-does this mean we're going to have kids running around here?" Kento began to jump up and down.

"Well I hadn't planed on one so soon." Mia smiled at the thought of having Terry's children.

"When's the date set?" Rowen asked setting down on the steps.

"Well were thinking about in the early spring, March maybe." Mia gave a sure nod of her head.

"I want to be an uncle." Kento pouted.

"Yes Mia it would be nice to have little ones running around the mansion." Cye smirked as Mia's face went pale.

'These guys really want me to have kids.' Mia thought looking at all the hopeful looks the boys were giving her.

"What's all the commotion down here?" A man voice echoed from the balcony that Mia didn't recognize.

Please I beg you!!! Tell me what you think!!!!!! * Falls on knees and crawls begging and pouting *

Yep so much prettier...
