Hi there. Ok for the first I really appreciate the reveiws they make me want to countinue and i'm glad you like it. As for your question for one thing the reason i didn't mention kei is that i forgot his name and i will try to mention him and the other knights in future chapters. I hope the rest of your questions may be answered in this chapter. It is from sasame's point of veiw what he's thinking,feeling etc, and basically back tracks into the past. There is really no forward motion in this chapter it basically is a calm and slow chapter but i hope you enjoy it anyway. I'm not sure i did a great work on this chapter but whatever here's the next chapter

Sasame followed Mawata as they moved towards the front of the trailer to join the group and grinning Himeno.

Sasame wasn't usually bothered easily but at the moment he was. His brow was creased, the only line –etched with worry—on his young handsome face. And his eyes were filled with confusion. He stared absently into space, lost in thought, barely aware as he took a seat beside Mawata. He could feel her body generating heat and his eyes roved feeling flustered trying to regain his serene mind and pallor once more.

Sasame was aware to, though, that Goh was still glaring at him

No doubt, Sasame thought amused, for his insecure love of Mawata

Don't worry I'm not going to take her from you, I don't love her

But then, the thought struck him—his whole day with Mawata, thinking of her—what had he been doing? What had he been doing?

Himeno he also saw seemed increasingly happy about this. Sasame sighed silently, rubbing a hand through his silky hair wondering……

He hated this feeling, he really did, not knowing what he was doing, acting irrationally. Sasame pictured Mawata in mind's eye. Her teal soft locks of hair caressing her face under reserved blue eyes filled with caution and yet a gently loving smile.

He didn't love her. He was sure of that.

"I am your knight of sound and yours alone" He remembered that night as he gave his heart and life to Takako to do with what she pleased.

The women he loved.

Takako was his spring in endless winter, she had saved him and he…..Sasame closed his eyes….had returned it, gently kissing her cheek, her neck, to her lips. Full of luster and beauty. Locking his hands around her waist, encircling her…encircling takako.

That night had been a beautiful one for Sasame and yet he had never been able to set his conscience of it's guilty form because of...her.

No, he didn't love Mawata though he did, sasame had to admit, felt attracted to her. Enjoyed teasing her, making her blush...

but no. i am to mature for her anyway and she is only infacuated with me. I will not lose the love i cherish as i wait for takako once more.

Sasame had only come to help Mawata,see how she was farring and also for his own selfish desires of wanting to ease his guilty conscience. And now that he had apologized was there reason for him to stay any longer? He seemed to be causing the girl many problems of turmoil and emotions related to the heart...

And when he was near her he got lost in her eyes, broken eyes he wanted to mend...g rowling at himself, Sasame shook his head

but how could he leave he had promised Himeno...

flashback

After, when the princess of diaster had turned into takako things began to regain normaility. The knights forgave Sasame and he returned to his life of a D.J and takako. Takako got a part-time job and rented an apartment.

Sasame stayed with the knights, grateful to them and filled with understanding at what they had done. However always on his stop from work he stopped at Takako's for dinner.

"Sasame your here, Takako called from the kitchen, take a seat--dinner;s almost ready--i'll be with you in a second"

She appeared and sounded busy and not wanting to bother her sasame called back "Alright"

He sat carefully on one of the tower seater sofas, sinking into the leather material, and waited.

He had seen the house many times before, from frequent vists, and nothing appealed to his interest or arrosed his curiosity. Sasame watched the clock, it's interatic designs and after a couple minutes takako rushed in,wiping sud filled hands on her apron.

"Hello-dear--sasame sorry i didn't greet you before---"

Sasame smiled" It' all right takako no need to be harrassed"

takako pulled off the apron revealing a pretty velvet black dress

"Beautiful" Sasame commented.

She sat down and when he leaned over to kiss her, she put a finger to his lips.

"hmm" Sasame said trying to resist the full red lips.

"I have nws to tell you"

"Can't it wait" Sasame murmmered "Till later"

Takako laughed, "If i wait any longer i might forget because i'll be with you to long"

She brushed the silver hair from his eyes,her own pleading.

"You make a very persusavie argument" Sasame said his eyes twinkling and leaned away from her, into the sofa.

"So do tell your news"

"Alright, well, Himeno called. i knwe you hadn't seen her in a while and she asked me to ask you and me to go on a camping trip"

"camping trip?" Sasame said dubiosly.

"It's himeno's birthday and she wanted us, her family and all the knights to go for a week--it's the only thing she wanted since a child"

Sasame smiled "If it's for himeno i will, she was the pretear and amazing loyal friend. She saved me and you and the love we cherish--i would do much for her friendship and faith."

Takako was quiet for a minute

"But that's not the only reason, takako said, your also doing it for her"

There was no denying it so he said strongly "I am"

"Good. I wish you and her heart at ease"

Takako spoke sadly "I have made her what she is today"

She countinued "A also came to a descesion, i will not accompany you on this trip because i do belive you would do better alone--Mawata would feel akward with me as much as she does with you--and i know the courage it is taking you to face her after the dilemma"

"takako..."

Takako closed her eyes "Sasame, If you love me you will do this for me"

Sasame was silent for a second then whispered " As you wish i am your knight and yours alone"

"Sasame" a voice rang shaking his shoulder "Sasame"

Sasme blinked and opened his eyes into the corncerned face of Mawata.

"Are you okay?"

"hnn..i am fine thankyou for the concern"

"No problem,"Mawata withdrew and kept her distance

i will fix this mawata...i will try...

"Alright, himeno's voice rang as a bell, ready for the game?"\

"yeah a chorus of voices greeted her as the trailer moved on the way of wilderness
