wonders why it didn't load Well it is done, small with all my distractions and had I not gotten an e-mail I wouldn't realise it wasn't even working shrug
Oh well, I am half way done the next one so I'll upload it again L It's short but cute.
-Chapter 4-
The day progressed quietly after the incident that morning and they carried on with their day, some more rested then others as Ikki had drifted off in the sun while he had rested near where Shaka himself had rested ... only waking as the Gold Saint shifted, some old traits were hard to die out and any noise near you where he trained was an immediate threat, the good part to it was he didn't look like he was sleeping on the job either.
"Afraid the alarm clock was gonna come looking for retrobution after this morning or were you more concerned about anyone else knowing about your nap ?" he asked Shaka .... trying to act like he hadn't been sleeping just a few minutes before hand.
"Uh .... oh, no ... I was more enjoying the warmth and such. Guess I was enjoying it to much as it was not my intentions to fall asleep" came Shaka's quiet responce, he really hadn't meant to go to sleep while talking to Mu but it was a little late to fight that after he'd woken up.
"Next time I think I'll let Mu take you into the house, cause after this morning I don't think I wanna wake you up suddenly" he smirked, not that the thought had really crossed his mind actually but it wasn't the brightest idea sleeping out where you'd make a good target either.
"I did not mean to tie up your day, mayhaps I should stay in the house instead, make myself less bothersome that way when I drift off" Shaka would say, sliding off the rock and going over the path as though he could clearly see it with his eyes closed as they usually were.
"Hey, no need to take offence, not like I had anything else planned, and getting away from those jokers back at the house for a few hours is never a big bother ... besides I was joking, ever hear a joke before?" he'd sigh, getting up from the grass and following behind.
"I know what a joke is, just never thought you were prone to them actually" Shaka said as he stopped and shifted his head so his ear was towards Ikki, waiting for the Bronze Knight to catch up ... it was interesting to see a different side outside of the Virgo temple, leaving him to reflect how many others were different once they left meditations.
"Yeah well .... just don't tell anyone else" he'd grumble a bit, his joke having backfired anyways. It seemed Shaka was gonna be harder to joke around with then Shun was.
"I am sure a compromise can be reached .... your jokes are as hard come by as my napping in the sun after all" Shaka snickered, it had been more the tone Ikki had used then what he had said that actually broke the serene mood Shaka had been in.
"You know ..... throw in a soak in the hot tub later and I could be bought ...." Ikki'd laugh, having finally caught on to the implications either thing being known might have had, well likely none at all considering those who'd know but it was still fun playing like it would matter.
"Enjoy the bath all you like .... " Shaka was starting to wonder just how he'd managed to aquire a house slave when he'd caught sight of Ikki's puzzled look before the crease left his brow.
"Um .... it's like a heated pool outside that you sit in and relax, usually a social thing shared with friends ...." Ikki would try to explain, making a small detour towards where the pool and hot tub were to show him what he had meant.
"I don't think I am that socially inclinded to bath with a lot of other people, but really thank you for the offer" in fact there was no way Shaka intended to bath with a bunch of other people, male or not that was just not done .... now swim was acceptable but he was not getting into a tub unless it was alone.
"Oh .... okay, I just thought you'd like to ...." Ikki started wondering just what had changed the joking mood to one of this nature, he'd only suggested Shaka relax a bit.
Shaka would follow along quietly, having managed the wrong idea, but then what else would a tub pertain to other then having a bath, and that was not something he intended to share, even if it seemed a common thing for these bronze to do for reason's unknown. It was long after he'd seen the pool and this tub Ikki had been talking about that he understood exactly what he'd misunderstood.
