Witch Hunter Robin
Rebuilding from the rubble
Chapter 5
Last Day of Freedom
A Fanfic by Prospero53223
Robin awoke early on Sunday, dressing in some sweats, a t-shirt and her cross trainers before sneaking downstairs and out the front door.
"You're late." Robin jumped when she heard the words spoken to her as she turned around and see who it was. "Amon! You nearly scared the life out of me."
Amon had a sly smile on his face when Robin turned to face him with a look of fright and relief. Moses was also there, tugging on his leash wanting to get going. Since Robin was now done with physical therapy, she was able to jog a lot more and a lot further. Amon had a habit of bringing his dog with him every time he ran. Robin didn't mind Moses, he always seemed to keep the pace better than the two of them could.
"So you ready?" Amon asked.
"Yes, how far are we going?" Robin replied by asking a question.
"Not too far today, Father Juliano reminded me that you are assisting with the opening of mass today." Amon said flatly as Robin nodded her head as they started their jog. "I know, I remember."
They jogged until the first rays of dawn broke through the clouds before heading back. It wasn't a bad jog at all, though in Robin's mind a good three miles especially when they normally ran six. She knew she would do good at retraining, at least the physical aspect of it.
What Robin wasn't sure of was the rest of the training. From what she and Amon were able to gather from Dave and Nagira who kept in close contact with Doujima, any STN member going through retraining would be there for three months. They would be tested physically and mentally while craft users would be closely monitored. The good news out of all this was they were able to keep the status of master hunters and their class specifications. Of course, their final test would be a hunt to see how well they went through there training and how well they did with the partner SOLOMON matched each student up with. It was comforting to know that she would still be Amon's partner, she knew all his signature traits while he hunted and she knew his loyalty to his team, to her...his partner.
It seemed easy enough, too easy for her and Amon's liking. Everything that they have already done for SOLOMON was just too easy. They couldn't figure out why though and from the information they had gathered not to mention what Father Juliano had told Amon when they were at the Vatican, showed no underlying punishment. Could it be that what happened at the STN-J and changes that were being made all throughout SOLOMON so the same thing wouldn't happen again be the cause of such leanency? Whatever it was, neither one of them trusted it. They couldn't trust they? Maybe when they got back to Japan they could relax. Maybe that is if SOLOMON keeps their word would they trust all of this but until then Amon and Robin kept their guard up.
Once back inside, Robin high tailed it upstairs to her room to get ready for mass.
"You have an hour before mass Robin." Father Juliano yelled as Robin ducked into the bathroom.
"I'll be ready in twenty minutes." Robin yelled from the upstairs bathroom, Father Juliano knew Robin well enough to know that actually meant fifteen minutes since all her clocks were five minutes fast.
Amon also got ready for church which he found to be a funny habit since he wasn't all that religious. He had told himself the only reason he went to mass was out of politeness since he was a guest but he knew he was lying to himself. Amon knew the real reason that he went was because of Robin. Ever since she came back home to Italy, Father Juliano had her sing the opening to mass every Sunday. Her soft voice was so powerful and enchanting he couldn't help but look up at her while she sang.
"Gloria in excelsis deo, et in terra pax hominibus bonae voluntatis Laudamus te. Benedicimus te. Adoramus te.
Glorificamus te. Gratias agimus tibi propter magnam gloriam tuam......."
Amon stood up with the rest of the congregation as Robin sang and Father Juliano with some of the churches alter boys came in walking up the isle in great majesty as the congregation looked on.
"Domine Deus, Rex caelestis, Deus Pater omnipotens. Domine fili unigenite, Jesu Christe. Domine Deus, Agnus Dei, Filius patris. Qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis. Qui tollis peccata mundi suscipe deprecationem nostram. Qui sedes ad dexteram patris miserere nobis......."
He continued to watch in complete awe and actually wanted to participate in such a grand tradition. Amon could clearly see why Robin was so devoted to her faith so devoted to the churches traditions, they touched one's heart and melted away all fear and doubt. This was something he hadn't felt in a long time when attending any religious service. He wondered though, how much of it had to do with his partner?
"Quoniam tu solus sanctus. Tu solus Dominus. Tu solus Altissimus, Jesu Christe.Cum Sancto Spritu in gloria Dei Patris. Amen."
The precision had ended and Father Juliano now stood at the alter starting mass.
"The Lord is with you." He told the congregation as they all replied "And also with you."
Robin had slipped in past Amon, making sure she sat in between him and Bradley when the benediction had started.
"I see many young faces in the congregation today all who look a little disappointed that tomorrow is a school day." The congregation chuckled and the children that were present seemed to groan.
"Some of you I asked before mass started today how you were all doing in school. Some of you were happy to reply about how well you were doing while some of you grumbled and said we've only been in school a month Father. I even recall a few of you saying how you wish you were all ready done with school. I'm about to tell you something I've had to tell Sister Sena over a thousand times when she was growing up, one is never done with learning even when school is out." Father Juliano paused for a moment clearing his throat while some members of the congregation once again chuckled before continuing his sermon.
"It was also just last night as I watched Sister Sena pack her belongings up as she too is returning to school that I was reminded of a passage in Daniel that I had read to her when she was still a small child that would be most fitting for the younger generation in our congregation today." Father Juliano paused yet again and turned to the passage he had marked in his bible.
"In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it. And the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, with part of the vessels of the house of God: which he carried into the land of Shinar to the house of his god; and he brought the vessels into the treasure house of his god.
And the king spake unto Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs, that he should bring certain of the children of Israel, and of the kings seed, and of the princes; Children in whom was no blemish, but well favored, and skilful in all wisdom, and cunning in knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability in them to stand in the kings palace, and whom they might teach the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans."
The children in the congregation listened carefully to what Father Juliano had to say hanging on his every word. Amon noticed that he too was listening intently to what was being said that day in mass.
"As for these four children, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams. Now at the end of the days that the king had said he should bring them in, then the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar. And the king communed with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: therefore stood they before the king. And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king enquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm." Father Juliano then closed his bible and turning back to the children in the congregation spoke to them and only them.
"Now many of you haven't heard this story since you attended classes for your first communion and the rest of you this may be the first time you ever heard this story. Many of you feel that because you are children the world does not care for your opinion cause you are young and inexperienced, but as you just heard it was children who advised a great king. I would also like to remind you the words spoken by Jesus to his disciples." Father Juliano then opened his bible up again and turned to another passage he had marked.
"And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them. But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God."
With that Father Juliano closed his bible and the organist started to play Bach's Jesu Joy and Man's Desire while everyone got up for Holy communion. Everyone that is but Amon who had noticed over the last two months there were only three other members of the church who also did not take part in communion.
Robin was the first one back in the pew followed by Dave and Bradley who all kneeled as they made the sign of the cross before praying. When everyone was done with prayer Father Juliano said a closing prayer blessing everyone and wishing them a safe journey home. The organ started up again playing another religious song by Bach as Father Juliano and the Alter boy's left the church first then followed by the congregation. Amon waited for Robin and Dave as they helped Bradley up to her feet. Bradley was noticeably becoming weak and Robin worried that her life long friend would pass before she finished her retraining.
Bradley saw the look of concern on her little sisters face and flashed her a brave smile. "Don't worry about me, I'm not dying until I see you and Amon married."
Robin just shook her head more, really to get the childish thought out of her head that she and Amon would ever be more than just partners.
"I think all the medicine the doctors have you on is starting to cloud your thoughts." Amon had told Bradley for the hundredth time that week.
Bradley flashed another smile at them, this time it was a little more mischievous than the last one. She also had a look in her eyes that showed Bradley knew what she was talking about. She didn't say anything though, she knew Robin and Amon's actions spoke loud enough for her.
"Come on lets get back I'm sure Father Juliano has a list of chores for us to do." Dave said as he helped Bradley walk.
"I'm sure he does and Bradley, I think when we get home you should get some rest." Robin said as she looked over in her older sisters direction.
"Of course I am Robby! You think I would miss your and Amon's going away bash."
Robin smiled as she walked with Amon. Dave and Bradley were slightly ahead of them. Amon did not like the idea of going out well going out was fine, it was the fact that they were going to a rave that bothered him. Robin seemed excited though, and was looking forward to tonight... their last night of freedom before being shipped off to Rome where SOLOMON Headquarters sends all their recruits and experienced hunters for retraining. Amon had noticed that in the past few days though, Robin didn't seem all that nervous when she was around Dave and Bradley. That Robin seemed to act more like a sixteen year old than a sixty year old. She was still mature beyond her years but her friends seemed to be that anchor of normalcy for her. Not that he minded though which he found to be funny normally something like this would drive him nuts but for some reason, when it came to Robin he didn't mind. It didn't bother him that she acted sixteen, that she enjoyed her life to the fullest nor did it bother him that she wasn't as worldly as him or even Touko. Robin was well, just being Robin and he was glad she let him see that side of her.
They spent the afternoon cleaning the monastery, Robin had to help in the garden today along with Amon and some of the other nuns.
"Afternoon is hazy river flowing all around the sounds moving closer to them, telling them the story told by Flora dreams they never knew...."
Robin sang as she weeded and pruned the kitchen garden picking some tomatoes and fresh basil as well. Amon was in earshot of Robin as he and another priest painted a shed. The young priest watched as Amon smiled while listening to Robin sing. Everyone at the monastery could see how they both truly felt about one another. No one said anything though, they knew in time what was meant to be, would be.
"If you wish, Robin, not to stay with the church I will support your decision." Robin's thoughts brought her back to the conversation she and Father Juliano had just a few days earlier.
"I don't understand grandfather, why the change of heart?"Father Juliano smiled sweetly at his granddaughter. It was the first time she had ever called him grandfather.
"It really comes more or less from SOLOMON. I've done some soul searching about what I told Amon when we were at the Vatican. How SOLOMON intends for the two of you to stay partners since they feel you both balance each other out. He's a good man Robin, and I've seen how the two of you look at one another." Robin blushed. She too had noticed how Amon had looked at her since that day at physical therapy when he had told her she was beautiful. Maybe what she felt and what she thought was childish fancy wasn't. Father Juliano then slipped some paper work in front of her.
"What are these?" Robin had asked as she looked down at the papers in front of her.
"They're your emancipation paper work. Technically even though you work for SOLOMON as a hunter for the past three years I still have legal guardianship over you and your accounts. This will give you complete control over your life without having to ask me if you can do anything. It will also give you accesses to the trust fund your father set up for you and your mother."
"I don't want anything from him." Robin gasped but not because of the look Father Juliano gave her but more out of shock from her outburst.
Father Juliano walked over to Robin placing his hands in hers and looked right into her heart broken eyes. "Do not hate him because I do Robin, Toudo did truly love your mother and you. The pendent you wear, he gave it to your mother as a wedding gift." Robin nodded as she looked over the paper work before speaking.
"Can I have some time to think about this?" Father Juliano nodded and took the paper work back.
"You have to the end of your retraining that should be more then enough time for you." Robin got up and thanked him as she left the office, even now as she walked back in from the garden and into the kitchen to start dinner all she wanted to do was run to his office and sign everything.
At dinner all Robin heard while she sat at the table that night from Dave was how she needed to pull her head out of the clouds and how slow she was because she spent all her time in la la land. Dave did have every right to be mad though, Sister Helen had beaten Robin into the kitchen. Now they were forced to eat her good luck going away dinner she made for Robin and Amon.
"Here you all go eat up its a new recipe." Sister Helen said in a cheerful tone.
"Yeah road kill burnt yet slimy." Bradley had muttered to herself which caused a few suppressed giggles and a glare from father Juliano.
"What was that Bradley dear?" Sister Helen had asked not hearing what she had actually said.
"Oh I um said mmmm Calamarie." Bradley was quick with a lie to cover her butt.
"Well it's not all Calamarie its a seafood medley with rice. I got it out of a Japanese cook book I found in the kitchen." Sister Helen replied, the smile on her face grew a bit larger as all eyes turned to Amon and glared as Sister Helen left the dinning area and went into the kitchen to get some wine.
Every one knew Amon was the only one there that had a Japanese cook book. Robin opened her mouth to say something to Amon in the effect of 'how could you just leave your cook book lying around when' Amon had cut her off. "I don't even want to hear it."
Nobody wanted to eat their dinner. The seafood smelt old and bad, not to mention the rice was like mush and the sauce looked like rubber.
"You try it."
"No, you try it."
"No, you try it."
"Why should I try it I'm dying."
"Exactly."
"ROBBY!" Snickers were heard around the table with the classic Robin and Bradley debate that happened when ever Sister Helen cooked.
"Hey one bite just might do the trick you know like in Snow White when she ate the poison apple." The snickers and chuckles continued at the table while Moses walked over to the table looking for a hand out.
As a rule Amon never fed his dog table scraps but if it fell on the floor it was fair game. The thought had crossed his mind then again he didn't want to spend all night in the vets office either "No Moses."
"No Amon wait..." Dave started to protest until Amon flashed him an 'I don't fucking think so' look.
"Ok then Amon, dig in. It is your recipe." Dave said with a smug grin on his face.
"Sorry Dave, I'm not feeling suicidal today." Dave was about to say something back when they all heard Sister Helen come back into the dinning area again.
"Well? Don't be shy dig in." Sister Helen said while every one at the table were glad that there were days when Sister Helen was hard of hearing.
Amon understood how important it was to her though, that they ate the meal Sister Helen had put together for them and how she worked hard to make this meal. Amon picked up his chopsticks. Dave had a point, the recipe did come from his cook book. Amon also noticed that Robin had picked up her fork as they both took a bite of their dinner. Amon though, was much better at cheeking things than Robin was. He had noticed that Robin had made the same face that she did back in the airport when they first arrived and heard that Sister Helen had cooked for them.
"Well?" Sister Helen asked with a smile. They both mumbled about how the meal Sister Helen cooked was just so great to please the older woman and get her out of the dinning area.
"Well I'm glad you..." Sister Helen started to say until she noticed Moses in the dinning room. "Oh no dogs outside during meals come on now Moses out you go."
Sister Helen lead Moses out by his collar through the kitchen and out to the back yard. Robin was very thankful to Moses right then and there as she got up excusing herself by gagging out "Oh God I swallowed it."
Now there were very few things out there that Robin could honestly say she hated to do. One of them was to eat anything Sister Helen cooked the main reason it always lead to the second thing in the world she hated to do, being hunched over a toilet and throwing up. Bradley and Dave had followed Robin so they could tease her.
"Hey Robby! That must have been real good if you want to taste it a second time." Dave said while laughing.
"That was just follow." Robin responded through heaves.
Bradley couldn't help but laugh, normally the one brave enough to pick up their fork was left hanging then again Robin didn't like to leave people hanging.
"So can we count on you being the official taste tester Robby?" Dave continued to tease.
"Shut up Dave." Robin said as she pushed him into the sink turning on the water and getting his backside all wet.
"Ah......hey... Robby....Damn." Dave yelped as he got up and out of the sink grabbing a towel to dry himself off with. Robin now stood in front of the sink brushing her teeth. Within minutes Amon had joined them after helping Father Juliano clear the table rather quickly.
"Correct me if I'm wrong but please tell me we are stopping off some where to eat food that was just I don't know what that was but it sure wasn't food." Amon asked as he watched Robin brush her teeth.
"Yes Amon we are. Besides we need to stop off at the store anyway before we get to the rave." Robin spoke up as soon as she was satisfied that she got the bad taste out of her mouth.
Amon nodded his head as he turned to leave for his own room so he could get ready. Well not really get ready he wasn't changing or anything defiantly brushing his teeth but that was about it. Amon also went over his room to make sure he had everything packed and ready to go for Tuesday.
He all ready knew what and what not to do at a rave having gone to quite a few when he was about Robin's age. He knew not to drink the water or eat the food anyone gave you cause the could be laced with something. He also knew not to accept stickers or temporary tattoos since it was easy to lase those with LSD. If anything, Amon was hoping he could get five minutes alone with Robin just so the two of them could talk. Little did he know Robin was hoping for the same thing.
Nagira's last e-mail to Robin let her in on a little secret, today was Amon's birthday. As a gift Nagira had made two suggestions buy him something by Shakespeare or a samurai movie and named the two he would really like. It was easy enough for Robin to get the items in town along with black wrapping paper, Amon's favorite color. She placed his present in her back pack before changing into something a little bit more suitable than her pilgrim's dress.
They all agreed to meet in Robin and Bradley's room when they were all ready to go. Dave like Amon pretty much stayed in their work clothes while Bradley had changed into some blue jeans with a tank top and sweat jacket. Robin on the other hand looked like something out of Punk Rock Weekly.
"No, No, No." Amon said as he pointed to what Robin was wearing.
"What?" Robin laughed.
Amon couldn't believe how normal she looked with her black cargo pants red tank top and a long sleeved black mesh shirt over it along with her ankle boots and her signature maroon over coat. Not to mention she still had her hair up the same way and he had to admit to himself he liked it a lot.
"It doesn't flatter you." He lied
"And my long black pilgrim dress does?" Robin asked with a chuckle.
"Yes I-I-I-I mean no-I mean....." Amon was starting to stutter. Robin had to admit she thought he was being cute as well as little to overprotective but cute none the less.
"Don't worry, that will be back on tomorrow now let's go before you trip over your tongue." Robin said as she headed for the door.
"Well at least your wearing your coat." Amon said in his classic stern tone that he had not used since leaving Japan.
"Ok then you ready?" Robin asked in an annoyed tone.
"After you." Amon said as he let Robin leave first followed by Dave and Bradley who thought the whole argument between the two of them was funny.
When they got to the car, Bradley sat up front with Dave leaving Robin and Amon the backseat. Dave had thrown in one of his CD's from the last rave the three of them went to. Robin remembered it well it was her first hunt with Dave and Father Juliano. Now the STN members made their presence at raves so no other witches got the idea of trying to hurt or rip people off by using their powers. It was bad enough normal humans were doing that all ready to each other at these things.
Before they even got to the rave they stopped at Giovanni's Italy's answer to Harry's for some real food. Next it was to the local drug store so they could get bottled waters and snack foods for later on. When they finally got to the rave Amon didn't like it. They were at an abandoned building in the middle of no where and it reminded him too much of the FACTORY. They could hear the music pulsating loudly and they were still outside he could just imagine how loud it was inside. When they walked in they could barely hear each other.
Do you think your better off alone, do you think your better off alone, do you think your better off alone. Talk to me oooooooh talk to me oooooh , Do you think your better off alone, do you think your better off alone..........
"Robin." Dave yelled
"Yeah." Robin had to yell back just to be heard.
"You have your board?" Robin nodded and lifted her arm up so Dave could see that Robin brought her skateboard with. Before departing Dave told Robin one more thing before he and Bradley disappeared into the crowd.
"What's going on." Amon yelled so he could be heard over the music.
"We're going to split up. Meet me by the exit sign in five minutes. We are going to help Dave let his presence be known." Robin shouted over the music
"What?" he asked.
"I'll explain in more detail later just meet me by the exit sign in five minutes ok." She didn't wait for an answer and Amon hated having Robin out of his sight.
He watched Robin on her skateboard disappear into the crowd as he started to walk around the parameter of the massive crowd in the open storage room they were in. He spotted Robin once or twice on her skateboard and watched how she maneuvered the board more like a surfboard than a skateboard. As he made his way towards the exit, he noticed a few people in the crowd step, if not, nearly run away from him. At first he didn't understand why until he realized he was wearing his STN-J overcoat and the people running away from him, he could only assume were witches. He then soon understood why Robin had said they were going to help Dave's presence be known, they weren't there to hunt, more to scare, keeping things in order so no one would get hurt well by witches any way.
When he met up with Robin at the exit they both stepped outside into the night air finding a ledge to sit on while they listened to the music from a safe distance for their ears.
"Do you ever question your life? Do you ever wonder why? Do you ever see in your dreams...All the castles in the sky? Oh tell me why... Do we build castles in the sky? Oh tell me why...All the castles way up high. Please tell me why... Do we build castles in the sky? Oh tell me why...All the castles way up high."
"You never told me skate though you look more like your trying to surf." Amon told Robin finally in a normal voice.
Robin laughed as she shook her head. "I do both."
"I never knew that." Amon replied back.
"There's a lot we don't know about each other." Robin pointed out.
"True, but we've both changed a lot." Robin smiled and nodded her head. "That we have. But I don't know, there are times where I feel as if we've been given a second chance, you know? A clean slate to start all over again."
"It does doesn't?" Amon asked as he looked at Robin.
Robin blushed as Amon looked her over before their eyes locked into each other. What was it about him that made her blush so easily?
"Oh I almost forgot." Robin said as she dug through her back pack for his present.
"Happy Birthday." She said with a smile.
"How did you know?"Amon face showed both shock and surprise as he took the present from Robin's hand.
"Nagira." Robin smiled, a small giggle escaping her lips when she heard Amon's reply. "Should have figured."
"Can I ask how you knew about mine." Robin asked curiosity hinted in her voice.
"You weren't the only one studying there new partner." Amon said as Robin blushed remembering how HQ had her watch videos of Amon to study his character, his personality and hunting style before she left for Japan.
At the same time Robin should have figured that out for herself and not think she was the only one who had to study the agents she was to be partnered with. Then again, she did look up as much information she could on her friends when she got to the STN-J. She even tried to look up more information on Amon when she got to Japan but it was rather hard, seeing how his security clearance was pretty high up there .
While Robin was thinking about the events that brought her to Japan Amon had opened his present and smiled when he saw what it was. "How did you know?"
"Well Nagira told me you like Shakespeare and Samurai movies. He also told me that you needed to replace the one cause he destroyed it and on accident he wanted me to remind you of that. The other he told me was on your wish list." Robin said with a smile.
Amon remembered the day when Nagira had ruined his copy of The Tempest and how he wanted to kick his ass. The Samurai movie she had gotten him was damn near impossible to find "I can't believe you found Shogun Assassin."
Robin still smiled as Amon took a hold of her hand. "Well it was hard to find. I had to put it on special order but it was worth it and I'm glad you like The Tempest as well Amon smiled as he started to recite Prospero's Speech.
"And now my charms are all o'erthrown and what strength I have's mine own which is most faint: now t'is true I must be here released by you......"
Robin now had a beaming smile on her face. "You know Prospero's Speech?"
"Actually, I was more surprised when I heard you and Bradley sing it the day of our inquisition." Amon told Robin which caused her to blush in embarrassment .
"You heard us?" Robin asked bashfully.
Amon nodded. "Yes. I thought I had awoke into a dream."
"True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy; Which is as thin of substance as the air, And more inconstant than the wind, who woes Even now the frozen bosom of the north, And, being anger'd, puffs away from thence, Turning his face to the dew-dropping." Robin said and blushed as she watched Amon's trained and chiseled jaw drop to the ground.
"It's my favorite quote from Romeo and Juliet." Robin replied while she looked at the ground.
Amon still having a hold of Robin's hand also started to quote his favorite verse from Romeo and Juliet. "If I profane with my unworthiness hand This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this,--My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss."
"Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much," Robin began to quote as well. "Which mannerly devotion shows in this; For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch, And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss."
Amon smiled at her as he still looked into her eyes. "Would you sing Prospero's speech for me?"
Robin nodded her head and obliged Amon's request it was his birthday after all.
"And now my charms are all o'erthrown and what strength I have's mine own which is most faint now T'is true I must be here released by you. But release me from my bands with the help of your good hands. Gentle breath of yours my sails must fill, or else my project fails, Which was to please. Which was to please now I want. Spirits to enforce, art to enchant. And my ending is despair, unless I be relieved by prayer. Which pierces so that it assaults mercy itself and fees all faults. As you from your crimes would pardon'd be. Let your indulgence set me free."
Amon by now had taken Robin's chin into his other hand stroking her smooth creamy white skin while looking deep into her eyes. Robin felt it harder to breath, was he going to kiss her? She couldn't think she didn't know where she was only thing she knew was that she was in complete and total bliss as Amon gently pressed his mouth to hers kissing her for the first time. When he pulled away they both had a smile on there faces.
"I have been wanting to do that for a long time." Amon told Robin his hand now stroking the side of her head getting his fingers tangled into the wisp of hair she had around her face. Robin still shocked couldn't find any words but a single tear fell down her face as she gave Amon a shy smile.
"Father Juliano has my emancipation paper work for me to sign and I think I won't need the three months to make up my mind." Amon smiled as he held Robin close to him this he would have to admit was the best birthday he had in the longest time.
