Summary- Hotaru/Yami (AU) One-Shot
Yami restless because of the growing uneasiness in his kingdom, spends a fruitless night staring from his balcony. However, when there, his eyes travel to the inner court yard paradise with its own secrets.
Phalaenopsis Orchids
The full moon that guarded the Egyptian sands wrapped its luminous rays around an elegant bedroom of a fitful figure. It pierced the silk black violet sheets covering a tossing youth, who sat up in irritation. The stubborn jaw line, the broad shoulders and proud tilt of the head declared the youth undeniably male. One tan hand ran through spike blond bangs, which currently flopped over his eyes shielding them from the outside world. Moonlight followed the hand through a second layer of hair, this one the color of the deepest black, and finally swiping through the third layer of red tips. A sigh erupted from the pensive figure, as he shook his head, effectively revealing his breath taking orbs. His colored orbs were as unique as his hair, the very edges of his orbs were red, and then trickled into the violets that stared passed the window at which he gazed. Parting his sculpted lips, a breath left his lips and he shoved away his covers, revealing the tan chest marvelously toned. Standing from his bed, he walked toward the window he stared at, his white lower robe brushing his knees. His fingers brushed over a golden crown that he passed on the way to his balcony window. The male was the young Pharaoh of Upper Egypt, Atemu to his advisors and subjects, Yami to his closest friends.
Exiting his room, and standing on the open balcony, he smiled in relief to the subtle briskness that coated his sweating skin. Yami sighed again and leaned against the balcony rail, trying desperately to ignore the rampaging thoughts that constantly harked at him, sparing him the realm of sleep. The once friendly Shadow Realm was growing and filling with evil intentions of some that abused its powers. As pharaoh he was to control the Shadow Realm, but he could not stop the growing unease of his kingdom, nor the rising of those who would challenge him. Wanting nothing to do with his troublesome thoughts, he sought out with his eyes the only piece of serenity that calmed his thoughts. His unusual orbs alighted on the inner courtyard garden, and for moments upon time, he stared at it losing his awareness to its colorful blossoms. However, before he fully relaxed, a flicker of white among his colorful sanctuary drew his attention. Without a thought, he leapt from his balcony and rushed toward his inner courtyard. Yami felt a tumble of anger at whoever that would violate his sacred place. Yet, when he discovered the origin of white, his breath left him, a young woman stood with her back to him.
Taking soft steps, he admired the neck long raven hair of the pale woman, which gently danced across her shoulders to the tune of the soft wind. Raising a tan hand, he gently tapped the girl's shoulder, and when she spun to face him, words failed him. Mysterious amethyst eyes stared at him, widened a bit in surprise, but holding an innocent quality. Frailty brushed her frame, and Yami almost reached to bring her to his side, to protect her from anything that may cause her harm. She was clothed in an elegant violet dress, but something seemed off about the young woman. With his royal grace, he lifted one of her limped hands to his lips, a chilled feeling surrounded him. Kissing the back of her hand, he gently released it, and stared at her in question.
"You are so cold, why?" Yami asked her, completely intrigued by the woman in front of him. However, his question caused those peaceful amethyst's to snap in hurt. "What is it maiden?" He inquired, concern evident in his tone, and face.
"Mi'lord." The raven haired woman voiced, and Yami felt pleasant shivers touch his spine. "I am not of this world." She informed him, and turned to flee, as if hurt if she would see revulsion upon his face. Yami quickly grabbed a pale wrist, and used his other hand to turn her face to him.
"Yes, no beauty like you could be found here." Yami told her, bringing her toward him. "Tell me, where is it you come from?" He inquired, his face soft and staring at the amazed orbs of the woman.
"I come from a far star, the planet Saturn." She told him, one hand pointing in the direction of her home.
"Your name, maiden?" Yami intoned, wishing to have a name to call her.
"Hotaru." She answered.
"I wish to learn about you." He spoke, rubbing a thumb over the captured wrist he had yet to let go.
"Sire." Hotaru was cut off.
"Yami." He instructed, watching the tender blush on her ivory cheeks.
"Yami, I can only visit Earth, I cannot stay here." She informed him, turning her head down.
"Why?" He asked, a tear building in his heart.
"Your kingdom, it has none of Saturn's energies, my soul would fade away." She answered, turning back to him.
"Is there anyway to change that?" He inquired, and pulled Hotaru flushed against his body.
"Why, do you plead to know so?" Hotaru asked, tilting her head up to stare in his eyes. Yami tilted his head down to stare in to hers, his eyes flickering.
"I feel a calling to you." Yami answered honestly, leaning his head closer to hers. Hotaru gasped however, and pulled from his grasp, before he could ask what had happen, she turned a worried eye to the sky.
"I am sorry, I must leave before the first ray of the sun appears." Hotaru apologized, lifting a hand toward her home star.
"Wait, will I see you again?" Yami asked, worry coating his voice. The sad amethyst turned to him, and Hotaru walked toward him.
"Yes." Hotaru whispered, walking closer to him.
"Promise?" Yami pleaded, and saw Hotaru sigh. She wave a hand over her heart, and a flower appeared in her hand. Also, a purple crystal appeared from her breast, and a small piece separated from it melding with the flower. The crystal shot back into her chest, and she leaned toward him.
"Promise, this Phalaenopsis Orchid holds a piece of my soul and heart." Hotaru gently told him, then with a brush of butterfly wings, she place her lips upon his. His eyes widen, and before he could phantom a response, she was gone. Yami blinked, brushing two fingers across his tingling lips, then walked back to his bed.
Yami awoke the next morning, wondering if it had only been a beautiful, lonely fantasy. However, grasped in his left hand was the orchid she had given him. Running a hand over the smooth petals, he planted a soft kiss upon it, and tucked it securely upon his person. The day dragged on, and he wanted nothing more then the soft caresses of the night. His wished was granted, and he waited for his night nymph in his garden.
Hotaru appeared once more in the beautiful flowers of the foreign kingdom. Both of them held many secrets, and she wondered at the gravity of her feelings. Yet, her thoughts whisked away at the sight of her waiting pharaoh. She walked toward him demurely, and he yanked her into his arms. Yami gently cupped her chin, and swiftly placed a burning kiss on her beautiful lips. Hotaru felt her breath slip from her, and she placed a hand over the strong heart of Yami. She felt the Phalaenopsis Orchid pulse from his person as they shared a blinding kiss. 'I know how, to survive here, on a foreign world, but will I?' Hotaru's musing were cut, by the lips lifting from hers, and instead brushing her neck. Yami pulled away, placing one more kiss upon her sweet lips, before settling his head on her shoulder.
"You do not know how much I yearned for you today." Yami whispered, letting his breath tease her ear. Hotaru shook as his warm breath slipped over her ear. "Is there a way to get you to stay?" He pleaded quietly, his hold around her tightening. "I beg of you, if you know a way, to tell me." He urged her, his defenses falling quickly. "For I," he begun with a hitch, "I don't believe, I could survive without your presence." Yami told her, and tilted his head to place a kiss on her shoulder.
Hotaru felt herself slip, someone trusting her so fully, wanting her there with him, instead of pushing her away. "Yes." She answered. She felt him leave his place on her shoulder, and instead gazed into her eyes. "Yes, there is a way." Hotaru surrendered, and his hand slipped around her left cheek aligning their gazes firmly.
"Tell me." Yami told her softly. "Please, tell me." He urged her. Hotaru stared into the eyes a like her own, and yet not, she knew her own answer. 'Yes, I can trust him with my most precious's treasures.' She thought softly. Raising an ivory hand to stroke his facial features, she smiled softly.
"Love." Hotaru responded softly, and felt the burning lips of the pharaoh. She sighed into his embrace, allowing him entrance to her cavern. Yami dipped into a few places of her mouth, but did not take advantage of her. Pulling his lips from hers, he placed a kiss on her forehead, before dipping another quick kiss to her lips. Wrenching away from the bewitching lips of Hotaru's he gazed steadily into her eyes.
"You have mine, with a glance you stole the only things I guarded earnestly." Yami whispered to her. "Night Nymph, Hotaru, I love you." He declared feverishly. Hotaru sighed into his chest, and placed a hand upon his heart.
"Sand King, Yami, I love you as well." Hotaru swore. "Now, bring out the orchid I have given you." Hotaru softly instructed, and observed as he slipped it out. "Hold it over your heart." She ordered, and leaned toward him. Yami did as instructed, and this time it was Hotaru who placed a raging kiss upon his lips. He felt the Phalaenopsis Orchid grow warm, and enter into his heart. His hand free, he slipped it behind her head to take control of the kiss.
Hotaru gently smiled into the kiss, her orchid hadn't rejected him. Finding the other half of her sleeping soul she pushed harder against him. The night was speared by moonlight, and flowers grew around the area on which the couple stood. Surrounding the kissing pair was the beautiful, and rare Moth Orchid.
Okay, here is the first request. Oh, Moth Orchid is another name for the Phalaenopsis Orchid. (Its long, so I went with the short name.) Anyway enjoy, especially you Sailor Ra. Oh, and your Lita (Makoto,) and Seto one should be up shortly. If any of you have request for a pair, go ahead and suggest them. I will even do some of the same pair, (Example : say another one of Yami/Hotaru.) Just leave your request in your review. On that topic, please review.
