I'M BACK!

As the three walked along through the city of San d'Oria, Cangon split off from Rio and Taya to go and do his own thing. Rio and Taya, now alone, were silent for a while as they walked down the streets. Through unspoken consent, they headed for the mog houses to check in and drop off some stuff. When they arrived, they headed into the room and dropped their extra items. "What do ya say to spending some time in San d'Oria? There are a lot of things to do around here, especially around this season, and we could just relax and have fun for a little while," Taya offered. Rio shrugged and sat down on the edge of the bed. "Sure, if you want to." He took off his two swords as well as his armor and donned a simple black tunic to match his pants. He lay down on the bed, his head up on the pillow, watching Taya as she went about her own things. He began to blush, though, as Taya undressed to her undergarments and placed her weapons down in a corner. She sighed and stretched, oblivious to Rio's reaction to her actions. Still not getting dressed, she yawned and walked over to the bed and sat beside Rio, calling over the moogle. She asked it to go and get her own black tunic and pants to match Rio and then lay down next to Rio as the moogle left.

Rio, trying to stay calm, shifted his weight a little bit and bent a knee to hide something he'd rather not have seen by Taya. Taya noticed the movement and looked up at Rio with a smile. "So what do you wanna do first?" she asked. Rio shrugged and attempted to divert his gaze, but couldn't. "Um, Taya," he murmured quietly. "Yes?" "Um, well, about before, um… did you really mean what you said? To the priest I mean?" Taya seemed puzzled. "What? You mean the 'maybe some day' thing?" Rio nodded, blushing a little brighter. Taya shrugged, then rolled over closer to Rio. "That would your decision," she said slightly seductively, a sly smile on her face, then she rolled away again as the moogle came with her clothing. Rio's eyes widened as what she said sunk in.
