"Oh come on lord Takumi!" Hinat said. "Please, don't do this to us. We're so nervous! Right Oboro?"

"Y-yes." She answered quickly and then looked back at Takumi.

"So, I should confess that I found out recently that I actually am bisexual..." Takumi said. His retainers looked confused at him. "It's that you're sometimes attracted to a guy but also sometimes to a girl..."

"Oh, cool! That means I do have a chance!" Hinata said happily.

"I know that I have to disappoint one of my loyal retainers, because I do have feelings for somebody...! But as you know, I can't date two people!" Takumi said.

"Yeah, I wouldn't even want you to date with Hinata as well while we are also dating. That would be so weird and painful." Oboro said this and looked with an odd face at Hinata, and then looked back at Takumi. "I can imagine that you don't want to disappoint one of us. So I'd understand if you chose to date Hinata. But of course I rather see you at my side. Haha!"

"Hinata?" Takumi then said.

"Yeah? What's it lord Takumi?" He said joyfull.

"Please don't make this any harder than it already is... I know that I told you I'm sometimes also into guys, but what happened yesterday..."

"Go on! Go on!" Hinata said.

"Sitting there with Oboro on the town square and watching yesterday evening's sunset made me realize how pretty she is, and how kind. And that I never had feelings for anybody else anymore after I recruited Oboro... I realized that I actually love her..." Takumi blushed while he said that. He tried to dodge Hinata's sad face, because he knew this had broken his heart.

"REALLY?" Oboro said way too happy, with Hinata looking sad at the floor next to her. "I mean... I'm sorry Hinata... That must have been painful to hear!" Oboro said. She petted his back and then looked at Takumi. Who also knew that he just crushed Hinata's biggest dream.

"I-It's all right. I'll get over it... Just... be happy together and that kind of stuff...! I'll leave you two alone for now... See ya later..." He quickly walked out of the room with tears in his ears. Oboro had tried to stop him to pet him some more telling him it was going to be all right, but he walked away too quickly.

"At least it didn't turn out as sad as I expected..." Takumi said looking at the door Hinata just ran through. He turned to Oboro. "This has all happened so fast... Oboro, I really like you!"

"Hmh." Oboro got tears in her eyes. "It's like a dream coming true! I'm glad you told me so!" She pulled Takumi to herself and readied for a big hug, but not a normal one. A hug that came from love. Takumi also came closer and he threw his arms around Oboro and pulled her body against his. Oboro put her head on Takumi's shoulder again.

"I felt so glad this morning as well, when you came in a hurry through that door. I always thought I had a good chance with you, but... when you told me so, it all became clear to me!" Takumi said and he smelled Oboro's blue hair. She was definatly wearing parfume. It was coming from a parfume with quite a sweet scent. Maybe blueberry? Or raspberry? Takumi couldn't tell, but it did smell lovely!

"Hmh." Oboro let Takumi go. "Was it that obvious? That I liked you?" She said.

"Well, everybody was talking about it. I sometimes thought it were rumours, but I heard everyone say it was true, that you had feelings for me." Takumi said.

"Hmh. I did tell everyone except for you, lord Takumi. Haha! But it doesn't matter no more. Because all that matters is that we're together right now, and that we are about to live a great and happy life. I don't doubt that!" Oboro grinned.

"Haha, Oboro. I don't doubt it either. I have faith in that you are the person that is going to make me a proud man! Speaking of that. Do you see yourself having children later?"

"Hmmm... I would like to have a child. Which has your cuteness, my good style, and our combined battle skills! That would be great!"

"It would! Haha! I'm glad you want to have a child as well." They continued talking about things, their love, their future together. They talked until they realized it was time to go downstairs to have dinner. "I totally forgot that we have to tell all the others about our ... love..."

"Oh yes, right. The lord Takumi is about to tell his siblings and friends about how he is going to marry me! It sounds too good to be true!" Oboro said.

"Don't worry Oboro! It is true!" They left Takumi's room and Takumi grabbed Oboro's hand while they walked to the mess hall. Oboro blushed and looked at Takumi. Takumi looked back at Oboro and blushed as well upon seeing her blushing. "Don't blush like that! It makes me blush as well!" They both laughed.

When they arrived at the mess hall they noticed that Hinata had reserved the two seats on the head of the table for Takumi and Oboro. It was good that it was on the head, because it would be easy to do a speech from there. The speach where they would tell everybody about their secret feelings, how they got together.

Takumi and Oboro took a seat. "Heya love birds!" Hinata said and winked at them.

"Hey Hinata, thanks for keeping these seats reserved for us!" Oboro said.

"Hey. So what's for dinner today?" Takumi asked.

"Well Jakob is serving cooked beans and daikon salade." Hinata said. "It smells delicious!"

Oboro and Takumi tried to smell the scent. It tasted good. "We're going to tell everybody." Oboro then said.

"About being a couple?" Hinata asked.

"Yeah. Why not? We have to tell them at some point anyway!" Takumi answered.

"So these seats on the head of the table are perfect. We can do a speech here and everybody in the mess hall will hear it! Thanks Hinata!" Oboro complimented.

"No problem!"Hinata said proudly. "Ah, there's the food! Play a good knife and fork!"

"Enjoy your meals!" Jakob said. And everybody started eating.

"I'm not very hungry." Hinata then said. "If you'll excuse me, lord Takumi? If I train for a bit now I might get more hungry after it."

"Uhm. As long as you get back before the others finished eating." He answered.

"I'll keep that in mind." He said and Hinata run outside to train. He kept running for a long time, his usual jogging route. Because that course leads to his favorite place in the world. When he arrived he looked at his favorite open field and sighed. He drew his Katana and swung it some times. "Stupid... Hrraa!" He swung it with all his power. "Well at least they are happy now... Hyaaa!" He tried to struck his anger away. "They are happy together... Hrrraaa!" He panted: "Pff... Pfff... Pfft... I wanted to be with lord Takumi...! Hyaaa...!" The striking made Hinata tired. So he went to a big tree with a lot of shadow under it and sat down. "I want Oboro and Takumi to be happy! But... I want to be happy too...!" He took a moment to look at the grassy field. This field was so special to him. "The field where I met Takumi..."

Hinata thought about his memories of this field: Years ago this had been the place where Hinata and Takumi first met. Takumi and Hinata became friends very fast, because of the determination they both had. They were so resolute to fight and become really strong guys one day. "Actually, we did both become strong guys. I shouldn't be jealous of Oboro and her love relation with lord Takumi, I should be happy that we're such good friends! And that I am so close to Takumi! I'm his personal retainer! I don't need a love relation with him! A really close friendship will suffice!"

Now that he had made up his mind he went back to the camp. When he arrived there he saw everybody was still eating. "I'm just in time! Ha-ha!" He walked inside to go back to Oboro and Takumi. "It helped." He sat down on his seat and continued eating again. "I made up my mind."

"Good." Takumi said. Then he signed to Oboro: It's the right time now.

Oboro nodded and they both stood up. Everybody looked at them to see what they were doing.

Then Oboro started: "Hey friends... Me and lord Takumi should tell you all something that has happened...!"

"Yes." Takumi continued. "Todat we both confessed that we had feelings for each other."

"He finally noticed my feelings for him, I had to tell him!" Oboro interrupted and people laughed.

Takumi continued: "We decided that we should be together, since we both love each other, as a couple."

"W-wow!" Sakura said suddenly. "My big brother has a g-girlfriend!"

People started laughing. "It wasn't meant as a joke!" She yelled.

Takumi whispered at Oboro: "This is kind of embarassing..."

Oboro whispered back: "I know... Let's just continue..."

She continued with a raised voice: "So, that's what we wanted to tell you guys!"

"That's s-so cute!" Sakura said. And then she unexpectedly continued: "I'm not kidding guys! Don't laugh about such a serious matter!"

Everybody went quiet. Takumi and Oboro sat down again but everybody kept looking at them.

"Yeah, you're right Sakura! That's so cute!" Hinata stood up and began clapping.

"Yes! I'm glad you're happy!" Sakura stood up as well and began clapping too. It was an insiration, more and more people started taking it serious and stood up to clap.

"Thanks guys!" Oboro said and she and Takumi blushed. Everybody was clapping for them.

Takumi winked at Sakura, and they all finished dinner and went back to their own stuff. Takumi and Oboro went upstairs. "You should move in with me!" Takumi then said. "I mean, that's normal if you're a couple right?"

"Yes! That's totally how I imagined it! Let's go to my room and grab my stuff so I can put it in your- I mean our room." And so they did. They went to Oboro's room, mainly to transfer her wardrobe and sewing stuff for making her own design clothes. When they were finally done Oboro said: "I'm exhausted! Let's change to our pyjama's and then go to sleep!"

"Sure let's do that!" Takumi said. When he came back from changing to his pyjamas, Takumi was wearing a long shirt and shorts. Oboro's pyjamas were a long patterned pair of trousers and a casual wide shirt. "Oh, that's a cute outfit!" Takumi said.

"Thanks Lord Takumi!" Oboro smiled. "To be honest I really think that outfit looks sweet on you!" She blushed.

"Let's go to bed then. Tomorrow will be a brand new day!" Takumi said. He layed down in the bed and Oboro closed the curtains and then layed down as well, next to Takumi. "Good Night Oboro!" He put his arms around her and closed his eyes.

"Night Takumi..." Oboro smiled upon seeing it, and then they both fell asleep.
