CHAPTER 1
The moon was in.
The food was ready.
And it was. . .
" Dinnertime!" Manta yelled out.
. . .Dinnertime.
Anna nodded to herself as she dropped the baton stick in her hands, ignoring Yoh who was still on the ground doing push-ups. " Finally it's dinner." Anna said approvingly, her hands behind her back, ready to leave the garden and enter the house. " I'm starving."
" An- - -na," Yoh whined, still struggling with his 1000th push-up. " What about me? I'm so hungry I could eat- - -"
" The grass found below you." she snapped, turning around. " You still have 80 more to go; after you finish those, then will you be allowed to eat dinner with the rest of us."
" Awww," he moaned, struggling to get up from the ground, when he caught a glimpse of Anna's black coloured underwear. He gaped, his eyes gazing up and down at Anna's thin, smooth legs. Involuntarily, his hands were reaching out to touch her when she turned around, and he gasped and went back to his push-ups. She raised her eyebrows at him before shrugging, walking into the house.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
" Wow, Yoh, you look like shit."
" Thanks, Horo. I love you too."
Ren frowned at him behind the bowl of rice before him, and dropped his chopsticks for a second. " Oi, Anna-san." he said, and Anna looked in his direction. " Don't you think that you're straining him a bit too much? After all, it's not good to eat right after you exercise. It's not too good for Yoh's body."
Anna blinked. Ren certainly was a good friend.
She smirked and nodded. " That's a good point." she said, grinning in Yoh's direction, who was barely able to lift up the copsticks in his hands. He looked up, noticing her grin, which was more like a leer. " I'm going to listen to Ren's advice for once."
Yoh's face brightened. " Less training than usual?" he asked.
" No." she said. " After exercise, you will have to do small chores before eating, such as massaging my back."
Almost everyone groaned, including Ren.
" Anna-san." Ren said, sweatdropping. " That's not exactly what I meant. . ."
" Mmm?" Anna said, acidly sweet, and even Ren did not dare to say anything after that.
He turned to Yoh, whose food before him was taken away by Anna.
" Gomen, Yoh." he said apologetically.
" No, it's alright." Yoh said, smiling weakly as he got to his feet to step behind Anna. " I don't mind."
Ryu, Manta and Horo looked at Yoh in surprise. Even Anna seemed mildly shocked, to say the least.
" What's wrong, Yoh?" Horo asked, mouth still hanging open.
" Nothing." he said, massaging Anna's back with as much force as possible. Little did anyone know, that Yoh was secretly crying with glee; as this was the first time that he was actually touching her. You see, for years now, he and Anna had been engaged, but nothing had actually happened between the two of them. No touching of hands, hugging, kissing, and. . .
He shuddered and shook himself.
" Ouch, Yoh. That hurts." Anna said, wincing.
Did she know how aroused she made him when she said that?
" Sorry." he muttered, his hands softly pressing against her soft skin, his fingers jerking slightly as they felt themselves across the thin layer of her bra strap. This was the first time he had felt any part of Anna, and it was an amazing experience. His fingers edged there once again, trying to peek at it through the white shirt she wore, and his eyes gleamed slightly as he saw through the thin material that it was black.
" Wow, you're pretty good." she muttered, moaning as he hit her at the right spot. He shuddered again, getting harder and harder by the second. " You could give Horo Horo a run for his money any day."
" Sorry about that." Horo muttered into his pork.
" Ne, Anna-san," Manta said. " Who has actually massaged your back before?"
Anna blinked. " Well. . .there's you, Horo Horo, Ryu, Ren. . ."
" REN?" Ryu and Horo gasped.
" Yes. And he wasn't half-bad." she said, smirking. " Tell them, Ren-kun."
Blushing, Ren nodded.
" Oh yes, and Hao." she finished.
" HAO?" Ryu, Horo, Ren, Manta and Yoh gasped.
" Yes. . ." she said, flinching as Yoh's grip increased. " He wanted to invite me to join his group of. . .somethings. He said he would do anything for me if I did, and I told him all I wanted was a good back rub."
They stared at her, slack-jawed.
" And did you. . .?" Manta asked.
" Don't be stupid." she snapped. " I told him he didn't do it well enough, and would not agree. He offered to do it once more, but I told him I had better things to do. Then he said that he loved me. . ."
" HE SAID HE LOVED YOU?" the others gasped, and Yoh's grip tightened, if possible, even more.
" Yes. . .Yoh, would you relax?. . .And I told him I had no interest in him, so he just smiled and left. Nothing to fuss about."
But it was. This was the true sign of Anna's power. She had almost all of the world's most powerful shamans in the palm of her hands. Plus, she had the world's most powerful man massage her back. Plus, she tricked him AND he loved her.
" You're incredible." Yoh said, fascinated.
" I know." she said, smirking, getting to her feet. " Well, I'm finished. Call me when the 8 o'clock show comes on, Yoh. I'm going to take a bath."
Again, thoughts swarmed the dirty mind of Yoh.
The other men, friends of him for years, knew exactly what he was thinking.
" I would call you a pervert if you two weren't engaged." Ryu muttered, though a grin was playing on his lips. Blushing furiously, Yoh turned to face him, face blushing like crazy. Horo grinned at him too, while Manta looked confused, Ren nonchalant. " What was the colour of her bra, after all?" Horo asked, grinning at him. " Maybe she didn't, but we saw everything."
He looked at the rest of them in awe, mouth widened in shock and embarrasment.
" You WERE obvious, Yoh." Ren said, shrugging,
The expression on his face was laughable, and the others but Ren burst into laughter. Finally, when they had subsuded, Yoh sighed and brought his rice to himself, chomping through it. " Well, what am I supposed to do?" he complained. " We're engaged, for God's sake! And we haven't even kissed before! I mean. . .what's that? It's like we're in a sitcom from the 70's!"
The others laughed, while Ren just smirked.
" But, I have to admit, Anna-san really is very pretty." Ryu said, nodding slowly, his magestic flop of Elvis hair flopping up and down like a plate of jelly.
" Just that she's scary as a demon." Manta said, shuddering. " Great example. . .the incident with Hao."
" That makes her attractive sometimes." Horo said, smirking at Yoh. " I bet she's a minx in bed."
" Horo!" Ren said warningly.
" It's true though." Yoh said, and Ren's mouth opened in shock. " I've been wanting her for so many years now, and she hasn't even showed an act of kindess to me expect for making me small uniforms and training me day and night."
Ren smiled warmly at him. " Oh, you'll be okay."
He stared at him in surprise, and looked at the others, who smiled at him.
" Well, we'd best be off." Horo said, getting up from his place.
" Yep." Ren said, looking away.
The four of them stood up, looking down at their shocked friend.
" Good luck." they said.
He smiled. " Yeah." he said. " Everything will be alright in the end."
" That's more like Yoh." Horo said.
" Hmph." Ren said, as they shut the door behind them. He smiled.
" Goodnight." he said.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
It was eight.
Yoh nodded to himself and picked up the small tombstone in his hands. " Goodnight to you, Amedamaru." he said.
" Goodnight, Yoh-domo." he said, before disappearing into the roof.
He smiled to himself as he walked towads Anna's room, ready to knock on her bathroom door when he noticed that the door was slightly open. He shook himself, shuddering once again at the thought of what Anna would do if she found out he was peeking at her showering. He made motion to walk away, when he remembered what he was there for. He knocked on the door, and it opened wider slightly.
" Yes?" came her voice.
" Er. . .It's eight." he called out.
" Alright." came her voice, and the sound of water stopping.
He couldn't help but let out a gasp as he saw her through the small crack in the door, her unblemished, milky white skinned body for him to see. His tongue involuntarily darted out to lick his lips as he watched her slowly reach over for her towel, wrapping it tightly around herself, but not soon enough for Yoh to not notice her well sculpted frame, moulded with beauty.
He knew he loved her.
He knew she didn't care less about him.
He knew he had to respect her privacy.
But DAMN did she have a nice body. His eye pressed even deeper into the hole now, wondering where she was at the moment. He blinked as he noticed she wasn't there anymore. He frowned and surveyed the place as much as he possibly could with so little space given, and it was when he was hoping for more vision space when the door creeked open.
A very angry, confused, and yet at the same time amused Anna was looking down at him.
" Good evening to you too, Yoh-kun." she said, crossing her arms across her chest.
