Leo's point of view
He was ready for battle, his inner beast was in conflict with his human side. It wanted to protect Yuiko with all his strength and tear every single teacher, adviser and the principal to shreds. He was angry that they assumed he had harmed Yuiko sexually and that they now had to marry because she was with child. He knew that he one day would make children with her, and did he want her? Yes he did but he also knew he would not touch her before they were legally married.
"We all know that you parents want to protect your children so it don't end in a scandal on your family names, but we cannot and will not overlook the fact that two of our students are getting married in the second year of high school. Are they even legally old enough to marry?" their home-room teacher asked. He looked at the fellow staff of the school and they all nodded and gave him a look that could kill.
O.K. this was it, his beast was just at the edge of his mind and it would appear any minute now. His beast stopped the instant Yuiko's small elegant fingers touched his arm. He looked down on her and saw her smile. She looked ahead and stood tall for her small figure and look the principal in the eyes and said. "Leo and I am going to marry, and you can't stop us. Leo is 18 years old and legally old enough to marry me. He has never done anything to make his or my family ashamed and we have our families' blessings. Not because he has made me pregnant, which I am NOT, but because Leo and I love each other and it will be the only way to make Leo safe in Japan. We want to finish high school together and then make a grown up life for the two of us, Leo promised me and my father that he would love and protect me for the rest of our lives. And you know what? I WANT that too! So no matter what you say I am going to marry him this spring." She took my hand in hers and together we bowed our heads and asked as a unit "please bless our marriage" we stayed down until we heard a laugh. We looked up and the principal was smiling.
"Now that the school is informed and has agreed to keep the two of you in school, the wedding preparations begins" Toki said and smiled down ad us. The smile sent chills down my spine and I tried to run away leaving Yuiko to the details, but both she and Toki held me by the collar of my shirt. I looked with horror at Yuiko. "Leo, dear, you are not going to abandon your responsibilities in this wedding are you?" Yuiko said and smiled at him with a smile that could kill puppies. I was afraid and just nodded vile big droplets of sweat vent down my face. Yuiko smiled and kissed my cheek.
It was a nightmare. All the planning, the beauty treatment for Yuiko AND me. She wanted my hair trimmed and she wanted to buy new clothed for me I could wear at the wedding even new shoes she wanted to put on me. But I remembered I was all for her and I could not say no. the only thing I really wanted to do, I was not allowed to participate in the slightest. I really wanted to see her dress but she said I would bring misfortune on us if I did. I could not understand this. I had a big fortune and did not see the need to get an even bigger one. But Yuiko insisted. On top of the preparation we had school and all our friends and classmates was invited to the wedding. All the girls wanted to be with and talk to Yuiko all the time leaving little time for the two of us to be together. But all the guys talked about how my life had ended before it even began and we would talk about how my life in the wild had been and they would look at me with fear sometimes, but they all was nice towards me and Yuiko.
