Warning: Hey get this …this fic isn't a shonen-ai fic. It's actually love between a guy and a girl. Some of you might be going but Hotohori is a guy and Nuriko's a guy too, so how can one be a girl. Well if you watch Fushigi Yugi Eikoden you'll understand this fic sooo much better. This story is also in Nuriko's and Reishun's POV but the POV never changes because they're one. .
Disclaimer: I don't own Fushigi Yugi … its Yu Watase's.
For all the people who haven't seen Eikoden: Ko Reishun is Nuriko's reincarnation; Shu Eian is Hotohori's reincarnation.
Author's note: I never change that intro , I think all the people who have read this fic already know that by now. But anyway as always thanks so much for the reviews and on with the fic (just now I forgot how to spell "on" I hope that's not a sign .)
Cooking … I'm not really good at it but this looks …ok
I looked down at the mixed vegetables that I had been cooking; it had been such a long time since I had actually made a meal.
Yes a day and a half that's a wonderfully long time not to cook especially that you work at a restraint
Giggling to myself as I moved to cut up some mushrooms; it had been a long time ago but once I actually ended up giving Eian and myself food poisoning by mushrooms, but he nicely never brings it up.
The fire crackled gleefully as I dumped in the added ingredient. I couldn't help but notice how much the fire was the brightest orange, not unlike Tasuki's hair color. It lit up the room and sent it's burning embers flying skyward threw the chimney.
"Wonder how they're doing?" I said to no one in particular. Signing as I contemplated about it.
This was true a lot could have happened in ten years not just to him but to Chichiri too; Tasuki would be nearing the age or 40 and Chichiri maybe 53 or so.
I walked over to a little cupboard to take out an old rag, tied my hair and sleeves back and started to work washing and dusting. Slowly but surly my mind drifted again to Tasuki and Chichiri.
What if the Mt. Reikaku Bandits were in a fight and all wiped out? Even though I think that wouldn't be the case since they are one of the strongest Bandit groups in Konan, not that that he is leader of them again … but still. And Chichiri hasn't come by Suzaku Village at all since the last time Eian and I had seen him, a long time back.
My thoughts were broken by a heavy nock on the door, this immediately steered me from my work, getting up to walk to the door.
"Yes, hold on a bit please"
"…"
I reached the door and opened it but no one was there. I walked out a bit farther into the sun and looked around to find no one. My body let out a jolt as I backed up into the door and I turned to verify it being a door. For some reason I was scared …
I was just about to was in the door when I noticed a peace of parchment next to my foot, bending down to pick it up I noted how smeared yet readable the words were. I unclenched the paper and read:
Ten years ago I hated you and I still do, you don't deserve to live in this village or any village really. Actually you don't deserve anything that you have, that boy or Aya.
If you don't stay away from Aya then I will force you to stay away from everything you love PERMENENTLY. Do you hear me, you little bitch.
After reading the word permanently I entered the house rather quickly.
Just great after everything was going so well today.
It was known fact that Eian and I were looked upon as weird but still the word "permanently" didn't sound so good.
Just then another nock on the door made me shake …
"y…ye…yes"
"Hi Reishun it's me Aya"
I get out a sigh or relief and moved to the door, "Oh it's you, I tho…" I stopped dead remembering.
"If you don't stay away from Aya then I will force you to stay away from everything you love PERMENENTLY."
I stared to shack as I opened the door revealing a smiling Aya; "Hi" she said, about to come in.
Let her in … let her in…If you don't stay away from Aya then I will force you to stay away from everything you love PERMENENTLY.
LET HER IN!
PERMENENTLY!
My mental battle ended and my fear of the letter took over.
"You now what …I have to cook, and clean …and do other stuff" I moved to the side a bit, getting in her way.
I'm sorry
I didn't want the mood to be altered by telling him about the note. And to be honest I didn't want to remember about that either, but Aya must be confused at how I treated her. Tomorrow I would see her no matter what; I mean we work at the same place so it's almost inevitable. I would try to make up for today and it was true what I said it wasn't I lie.
But just for right now I kept that out of my mind.
That night when Eian came home we ate my cooked dinner. It was actually really good tasting too. Eian also didn't fail to complement, which made my heart flutter like mad. All our conversations ended in blushes and giggles.
Also a huge bonus to the night was when I took the plates to be washed … I got a kiss on the cheek, but still a kiss. Eian tanked me with a kiss. We has progressed a lot from when we protected Suzaku no Miko. He's now a lot warmer toward me a lot warmer.
All this made me remember the time I wrote letters to Houki when I had to go and to my duties as worrier. My mind kept telling me over and over that one day really soon I would be telling myself the same thing I would have written to her:
"You'll see, one day I'll write you and it will say I've got him … he's mine"Author's note: I'll write more a bit later, this chapter was actually quite long !
