Blessed the Broken Road
Rascal Flats
"Do you ever think back, ya know, to when you first named me?" Diakoku asked as he and Kofuku sat quietly sipping on sake' as they stared into the starry sky. When he asked, a small, sad smile crossed her lips and she nodded; those two bobbing front curls bouncing around her petite face and he watched her. Taking in every inch that the moonlight touched as her violet eyes glittered with memories. "I sure do. I remember every small, painful, and happy detail of it. You were the most beautiful soul I'd ever seen. And you became a fan when I called you! Oh, how happy that had made me! But every memory of yours that flooded through me; each more painful than the last, I wasn't quite sure of my ability to handle you." She spoke lightly with a small smile; her eyes staring off into the distant past as she recalled that moment. Warmth suddenly enveloped her as he wrapped one of his large arms around her tiny shoulders and pulled her onto his lap. "You were the God that blessed my broken road. Who woulda' thought; a God of Poverty. I had always wondered; in my human life I had had a wife and loved her dearly. But something always seemed off. Like, ours souls weren't on the same wave length. I understand now, thanks to you." He leaned in and rested his large chin on her shoulder and whispered those final three words and her face lit up.
"Oh, Diakii! You're too sweet!" She said as her small hand reached up to cup his cheek and her cheek rested against his other. "You saved me; you guide me and love me even knowing who and what I am. You accept my joking with Yatii, and my play with humans. I couldn't have asked for a better partner." She was a God, and never thought she would be able to love anyone. Then, here came Diakoku when she desperately needed someone. A small ball of light that caught her eye and she knew then; he had to be the one! Oh yes; she remembered that day like it was yesterday, and every day that came after; as a matter of fact. "I remember everything from my past; my wife and children, the accident, and the pain and suffering of being the only one to survive. All of that though; I will always believe that all of those moments were signs directing me to you." Obviously he became a poet when he was drunk and they were alone but Kofuku was sucking it all in happily as she snuggled against him.
"All those years I'd spent; I had just been passing through on my way to you. I may have chosen the wrong way to get here, but I'm glad it worked out in the end." He hugged her close to him and took in a deep breath, reveling in her scent. Each God had their own sweet aroma, and he adored hers the most. She let out a content sigh and wiggled around to wrap her arms around his neck. "My Kokki. All this sweet talking; I really do enjoy it, but what do you say we head to bed?" She questioned with a playful twinkle in her eyes and he caught on to it fairly quickly with a broad grin. "Of course, My Lady." He replied, rising to his feet with her still cradled in his arms. She giggled and kissed his cheek as they made their way through the front room and upstairs to go reminisce in another way. I ended up with the God that blessed the broken road I was on to reach her. Thank you, Kofuku…
[ This chapter is extremely short, but it held a lot of sweet meaning in it. This is how I believe they'd be with no one around and a few good drinks in them XD. I will not leave you with just this, though! I have had an idea for another, so I think I will be updating twice tonight since the night is still young! RxR for me? MUAH! ]
