Epilogue: What Can Be

Fai lay on the wide double bed. Darkness fell early in this country; everyone had turned in for the night. Fai was smiling quietly to himself while Kurogane undressed next to him.

"What are you smiling at?" Kurogane grumbled as he slid into bed next to the mage.

Fai turned to face the Ninja. "What was it, what you did before?"

"What?"

"When you pressed your lips against mine, what was it? Is there a word for that?"

Kurogane stared at him disbelievingly. "You don't have kisses in your country either?"

"A kiss," Fai turned back over on his back and smiled up at the ceiling, savoring the word. "I like that. It sounds like a little present."

"You come from a messed up country," declared Kurogane. He shifted over and proceeded to show Fai exactly what a kiss could be.

AN: Well, that's it. I wasn't originally planning on doing an Epilogue, but the idea jumped at me and I had to seize it like a rabid hamster before it burrowed away into the tall, dark recesses of my forgotten stories storage bin (If you ever find that bin, please tell me where it is! I seem to have forgotten)

Please review! I'm not sensitive at all. If you butcher my story I'll love you forever (well, maybe). Flames welcomed, just review!
