It was Miyu's birthday. Tonoko had taken her to the park - the same park he had given her the clan crest. She had been curious all day as to what he would do. He wasn't giving her any hints, but it was clear he was planning something. Miyu was currently hanging upside down on monkey-bar, looking over at Tonoko with a smile. Tonoko watched her and smiled softly. Finally, he stood up and walked over to the upside-down Miyu, leaning down to kiss her while she was upside-down.
She blushed and giggled softly. "T-Tonoko..." She murmured. "I'm gonna fall if you do that..." She whispered.
Tonoko chuckled and placed his hand on the back of her head, pressing his lips harder against hers. She gasped and pushed him back so she could jump down.
"I hope you intended on catching me if I had fallen." she whispered before grabbing his collar and forcing their lips together roughly.
Tonoko laughed. "Of course." He murmured and pushed her back against the metal pole of the monkey bars. He breathed in deeply and moved his hand to her butt as he pressed his body against hers. He had already looked around the surrounding area for any possible witnesses and found none.
She gasped and shut her eyes. "T-Tonoko ... What have you been hiding all day? What have you planned?" She whispered, clawing his back lightly.
Tonoko smiled softly and pulled back to look at her. He reached up to caress her cheek and laughed softly. "Have I told you that I love you?" He asked.
She smiled. "Yes. And I love you too." She whispered, searching his eyes.
Tonoko's smile slowly turned into a smirk as they held each others gaze. He reached down to entwine his fingers with hers before and kneeled down and smiled. "Now that you're eighteen, here's a question for you." He smirked. "Miyu, will you-"
Miyu's face brightened. "Yes! Yes, of course!" She smiled at him.
Tonoko's face softened and his face brightened slightly as he reached into his pocket and pulled out the velvet box, opening it to reveal a gold band with a small diamond stone. He smiled up at her as he took the ring and slipped it onto her finger; a perfect fit.
Finally, he stood back up and wrapped his arms around her torso. "I'm glad." He whispered.
She smiled, tears brimming in her eyes as she hugged him tightly.
"Inabikari, Miyu..." He murmured and smiled. "I think it'll fit perfectly fine." He whispered.
She blushed brightly as she shut her eyes. "Did your parents know you were doing this?" She whispered.
Tonoko nodded. "They've known for a little while." He replied. "And your parents will be waiting to see the ring when you return home tinight." He murmured and smiled softly. "Your mother was quite excited."
She blushed. "I'm glad that I'm finally going to be yours." She whispered.
"Fully mine this time." He murmured and blushed lightly. "Every part of you." He moved both arms around her waist and smiled softly as he gazed into her eyes.
She blushed brightly. "We won't have to hold back anymore. Th-There won't be a boundary to watch." She whispered. "T...Tonoko. I've decided I do want children with you." She murmured.
Tonoko's eyes softened and his blush deepened. He turned his eyes down as he imagined what it would be like to have children with thought about his mother and father and the children they had and tried to imagine what it would be like to have a child of his own. He leaned forward and tilted his head up slightly and pressed his lips to hers. "I'm glad." He whispered.
She blushed and smiled. "I love you, Tonoko." She whispered.
"I love you too, Miyu." He whispered and kissed her neck softly. "There isn't anyone I'd rather spend my entire life with." He said.
She smiled and closed her eyes, moving her head backup give him better access to her neck. "I-I wish we were married already." She whispered. "I-I want to give myself to you.." She whispered, biting back a moan.
Tonoko nodded. "What I wouldn't give to be able to take your clothing off now." He murmured and breathed down her neck.
She shivered and gasped slightly at his words. "I..." She quickly pulled back and searched his face. "C...Can we go to your place? P-Please? I don't want someone to show up here." She whispered.
"My parents are home." He murmured.
She bit her lip. "I'll come in the window..." She murmured.
Tonoko breathed down her neck again and pressed his lips to the crook of her neck. "What if I can't contain myself?" He asked. "We don't want to ruin anything now that we're so close to marriage."
She bit her lip. She knew that they both wanted one another, but she also didn't want to mess up things. She lowered her head and sighed.
Tonoko sighed. "If we continue on like how we have..." He chuckled lightly. "I might take you right in front of everyone the minute we're married." He laughed slighty as his blushed deepened. He hoped that she knew he was kidding, although serious to some degree.
She let out a breath and sighed. "D-Do we have a date set to get married?" She whispered.
Tonoko nodded and smiled. "I didn't want to wait too long so while I was talking to my parents, we thought a month from now would be good." He said. "One month..." He whispered and moved his hand up the back of her shirt. "And this comes off." He murmured, his hand laying over the hook of her bra. He moved his hand down to th small of her back. Like always, her flesh was cold to his touch while he heated like a furnace.
Her knees felt weak at his words. She ached for him so much yet the thought of giving herself to him still made her nervous. "You... You promise to be gentle with me when that day comes, right? And you'll stay by me when in labour?" She whispered, blushing.
Tonoko nodded and caressed her cheek. "Of course." He murmured and pressed his body completely against hers. "I'll be as gentle as you want." He whispered and kissed the corner of her lips. "I don't want to hurt you." He whispered.
She closed her eyes and smiled. "Thank you." she whispered and kissed him harder, wrapping her arms around his neck.
"Well,well,well..." a voice came from behind Tonoko. He hadn't need to turn around since he recognized the voice.
Miyu pulled back from Tonoko and looked over his shoulder at Chrone who was standing there with her hands on her hips, glaring at the pair. "Chrone?"
"You to seem to be on quite closer terms than you lead people on to think." Chrone said.
Tonoko had pulled away to look at Chrone. His face was faintly flushed, but it was bright enough for Chrone to see. "Does she really drive you that crazy, Tonoko?"
Miyu narrowed her eyes on Chrone. "Leave us be. Our relationship isn't your concern."
Chrone narrowed her eyes at Miyu. "You know how many gIrls in the village hate yours guts?" she asked.
"Chrone...it was my choice." Tonoko said.
"You hardly knew her." Chrone said.
Miyu bit her lip and turned away.
Tonoko narrowed his eyes. "I'd say I chose very well." He said.
Chrone scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Nice choice. She's just scum." Chrone stated.
Miyu's eyes widened. "Wh-Who do you think you are? Calling me scum? I could kill you in seconds." She hissed.
Chrone rolled her eyes. "Yeah, yeah, save it for later."
Tonoko shook his head. "Chrone, leave. Now."
Chrone narrowed her eyes at Miyu. "Better watch yourself; a lot of girls are quite angry at you." She said and turned to walk away.
Tonoko stepped forward, pointing his index finger at Chrone. "Don't start, Chrone." he warned. "And you wonder why I was never interested in you."
Chrone bit her lip and forced herself to keep walking until she was out of sight. Miyu bit her lip and closed her eyes.
"I'm... Im sorry..." she whispered.
Tonoko shook his head. "Don't listen to her. I chose you and gave you the family crest because I want to spend my life with you." He reached out to grab the pendant around her neck.
"I love you too, Miyu." He whispered and kissed her neck softly. "There isn't anyone I'd rather spend my entire life with." He said.
She looked at the necklace in his palm before looking up at him, tears brimming in her eyes. "B...because if me, you lost a friend.. I..." She lowered her head and frowned, squeezing her eyes shut as tears slipped from the edges.
Tonoko moved to lift her face and frowned. "A real friend would understand my feelings and know that I love you." He said and kissed her cheek. "If Chrone can't understand that, it can't be helped." He frowned and moved to wrap his arm around Miyu's shoulder and began to walk her away from the park. He want Miyu to think about anything else other than Chrone at the moment. "How about I retreat my lovely fiance to a beautiful dinner?" He asked and smiled softly.
Miyu smiled gently. "O-Okay. Sounds nice." She whispered.
After Tonoko had treated Miyu to a beautiful dinner at a restaurant his father treated his mother to on their annivarsary, Tonoko and Miyu walked around the village for a little bit, hand-in-hand. Tonoko swung her hand back and forth lightly as he took in her beauty with the moonlight. Despite seeing her almost everyday since they first met, it still made his heart seem heavier when he really stopped to look at her.
Miyu smiles gently as she looked at Tonoko. She loved him with her life. She wanted to spend her life with him. Web she saw Tonokos parents together, she hopped they could be ask much in love as them. She let out a soft sigh as she lifted her hand and looked at the beautiful ring. It made her heart flutter knowing that she was a month from being an Inabikari. Tonoko was so handsome in her eyes. His body was so muscular and his eyes captives her so easily. She squeezed his hand tightly as she looked up at the moon - she always thought of his compliment to her about being like the moon. It made the moon something she loved to see.
Tonoko noticed her gazing at the moon and he turned his face to look at it as well as he moved his arm around her shoulders. He smiled softly up at the moon and sighed. "Beautiful moon..." He said the meaning of her name slowly and sighed again, turning his gaze back to her face. "I find you much more beautiful than the moon." He whispered. "The moon merely compliments you."
She blushed and smiled. "Thank you... My fiancé." She whispered. "You're too good for me." She murmured.
Tonoko smiled and turned his face to the sky again, taking in the view. "No, I think it's the other way around." He chuckled.
She blushed and moved to lean her head on his shoulder. "My handsome Tonoko." She whispered.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A few months later, Emi had her planned last child. It happened to be another daughter, which everyone was happy with. Katara was older now, and she was becoming more talktive over time. The twins were just over a year old now, and although they were identical twins, they were completely different. Arashi was a more bouncy, bold child, while Haruki often remained quiet and chill. Izumi was the new addition, with the same traits as the other children. Unlike the other children, Izumi was a very quiet child and created a peaceful calmness to the house that made Ryuu and Emi more relaxed despite the young children.
Tonoko and Miyu had managed to get a small place for themselves shortly after they were married and finally gave themselves to one another not too long after marriage, although Miyu was still scared of having children, so they had made sure that conception wouldn't occur.
It had been a short while since their last visit to Tonoko's parents, so they had decided to pay a quick visit when they were walking by. When they arrived, they were greeted by hugs by both parents and Katara. The twins were already put to bed before the two arrived. Tonoko had moved towards Izumi and picked her up, he hadn't seen her since the week before and he missed her calming, peaceful expressions.
Emi smiled gently at Miyu and Tonoko. "We've missed you two around here." She laughed lightly.
"Onii-San..." Katara said as she walked up to Tonoko. "Come back home." She frowned. "I miss you too!"
Tonoko smiled and put Izumi back down in the crib before picking Katara up and kissing her cheek. "I've missed you too, Katara." He smiled softly.
"Then come back home." She frowned.
"Kata, we explained to you. He lives with Miyu in another home." Emi said.
"No!" Katara wrapped her arms around Tonokos neck tightly.
Miyu let out a sigh between sorrow and humor. She thought it was cute that Katara was wanting her brother so much.
"Katara..." Tonoko whispered. "Remember what I said?" He asked. "Remember how I told you that you're the one who needs to protect the little ones now? You're a tough little girl, " He whispered.
"B-But what if I need your help?" She asked.
Emi let out a sigh and looked up at Ryuu. They had been through this with Katara many times, but she just didn't seem to understand why Tonoko had moved out.
"Then all you have to do is call my name and I'll with you instantly." He whispered and placed the tip of his finger over her heart. "In here." He whispered.
Katara frowned and lowered her head on his shoulder. "Onii-san.."
Miyu smiled gently and rubbed Katara's back as she leaned in to kiss Tonoko quickly.
Tonoko smiled back and pulled back from Katara to smile at her. "If you ask mom and dad, maybe they'll allow you to come stay at our place for a few days." Tonoko whispered.
Her face brightened. "Really?"
Miyu smiled. "As long as mom and dad say yes."
Katara snapped her head in Emi and Ryuu's direction. " Can I? Please!"
Ryuu smiled and nodded. "I'm sure a night or two won't hurt." He said.
Katara grinned. "I get to see where Onii-san lives!"
Tonoko smiled and nodded. The only probably was that they didn't currently have an extra bed. They had just gotten the house not too long ago and they only had a few furniture items in the house.
Katara smiled before squirming out of Tonoko's arms and running over to jump into Emi's arms. Emi smiled gently and shifted Katara so she could support her better.
Tonoko smiled and moved over towards Emi, wrapping his arms around her shoulder. "I'l be sure to come back next weekend for your birthday, by the way." He said and pulled back with a smile.
Emi smiled gently and placed a kiss on Tonoko's cheek. "Yeah you better." She murmured.
"You're not pregnant again, right?" He asked and moved his hand to Emi's stomach. "I don't want to be killed if I forget." He said jokingly.
Emi rolled her eyes. "No, I'm not pregnant, Tonoko. Izumi was the last one I'm having..." She smirked. "Unless your father has plans I'm unaware of..."
Ryuu was leaning against the wall, and when Emi glanced over at him, he just whistled and looked around the room.
"Oh jeez..." Emi murmured before sighing and letting out a laugh. "Well if he wants more, I got news for him..."
Ryuu laughed and shook his head, moving to wrap his arms around Emi's waist from behind, kissing the side of her head. "No, I enjoy five." He murmured.
She smiled and turned to look at Miyu. "It's Miyu's turn to start having the kids."
Miyu's face turned red. "Ah... well..."
Tonoko glanced at Miyu and smiled softly. "We were just giving it a little time, getting use to everything." Tonoko said.
Ryuu laughed and patted Tonoko's shoulder. " Two weeks after we married, Emi concieved you. It's part of marriage, son. You'll never get use to everything; it all changes down the road."
Tonoko mumbled something under his breath and sighed. "Alright, we don't need the details, dad." Tonoko laughed.
Emi smiled and laughed. "I had actually wanted a boy from the start... however I didn't realize how much he'd turn out like his father." Emi smirked up at Ryuu.
Ryuu laughed and wrapped his arm around Tonoko's shoulder, pulling him into his side. "Yet, here we are, the two of the four men you favour the most." He smirked.
Emi sighed and nodded. "Yes, yes."
Miyu laughed slightly and smiled. "I don't really care if I have a boy or a girl."
"I want a boy." Tonoko said and laughed. "Yeah, it's obvious - I know."
Miyu smiled and shrugged. "Then when we finally decide to have children, I will hope for a boy."
"Well, son, it's up to-" Ryuu began but Tonoko moved his hnd over Ryuu's mouth.
"Okay, dad. Don't go saying anything that changes everything either bad or awkward." He rolled his eyes.
Ryuu shrugged and laughed when Tonoko pulled his hand away.
Emi sighed and smiled, moving over to Ryuu and wrapping her arms around his torso. "Don't worry Tonoko, I punish him lots."
"See, now why can I not pin-point exactly what you mean with that?" Tonoko asked raising a brow.
Emi smirked and shrugged. "Guess it depends on how you feel like taking it."
"Mommy made daddy sleep on the couch the other night..." Katara said with a yawn.
Emi smiled and bent down to pick Katara up. "Someone's sleepy." She stated and chuckled.
Katara nodded and closed her eyes. Emi smiled and started for the stairs. "Say night-night, Katara."
"Night-night Daddy. Night Onii-san. Night Miyu." Katara said sleepily as Emi walked up the stairs.
"Well, we better head back to the house." Tonoko said.
Ryuu nodded and walked the two to the front door. "Come back to visit soon."
Tonoko nodded. "Of course. We'll certainly be here for mom's birthday." He said and smiled.
Miyu smiled gently and hugged Ryuu before her and Tonoko left the house and back onto the village streets. "That was a nice visit." She smiled. "You're sister is still very attatched to you, though."
Tonoko smiled and nodded. "I still remember the day she was born." He sighed. "And she always seemed to grow quiet in my arms." He turned his face to the sky and smiled softly.
"Not anymore." Miyu laughed lightly. "Now she just cries louder."
Tonoko shrugged. "I do miss having her around though."
Miyu smiled and took his hand in hers. "I... I'm alright if we try to have a kid now." She whispered. "It'd give us something to look forward to as a child were to grow within me." She whispered, blushing faintly.
A faint blush surface to Tonoko's cheeks and he reached down to place his hand on Miyu's stomach. "I'd finally be able to understand why dad was always so crazed over mom's stomach." He laughed lightly. "I mean, I knew; it was cool to know a sibling was growing within your mom, and to feel a kick and all, but dad was always way more excited." He sighed and pulled his hand back to his side. "Are you sure?" He asked and glanced over at her.
She smiled and nodded. "I think it would bring us closer to have a child of our own."
Tonoko nodded. "No fears, no stopping? We go right through next time?" He asked quietly, squeezing her hand lightly.
She blushed and nodded. "I'm ready for it this time." She whispered.
Tonoko nodded. "Promise?" He smirked.
She sighed and nodded. "I do mean it this time..." She said, blushing.
"I won't let you go back on your promise." He said and moved his arm around her shoulders, laughing softly.
She nodded. "Y-You may have to just force me at the last minute." She laughed nervously. She knew how she was, when she was nervous she'd back out at the last minute.
Tonoko nodded. "Just don't try to beat me up this time." He murmured.
"I-I didn't really beat you up last time..." She murmured.
"You shoved me pretty hard and I ended up hitting my head." He murmured and scratched the back of his neck.
"Don't remind me..." She murmured, lowering her head.
Tonoko smiled and sighed, leaning over to kiss the side of her head. "It's fine." He whispered and laughed softly. "They're fun memories."
She smiled slightly. "I felt so bad after though..."
Tonoko laughed again. "Not this time though. No going back, and no random last-minute battles." He chuckled. "For a child..." He whispered and closed his eyes, leaning his head against the top of hers.
She smiled gently and sighed. "I... I will probably fight you... b-but I promise not to be bad after..." She murmured.
Tonoko shrugged and smirked. "Guess I'll have to fight a little back." He chuckled.
She blushed. As she went to speak, some random guy stumbled out of the alleyway, arms outstretched towards Miyu. The two of them gasped, and Tonoko quickly reacted, pulling Miyu back and his foot collided with the mans stomach, sending him flying backwards. The bottle in his hand slipped and smashed on the ground, sending alcoholic liquid in every direction. Tonoko narrowed his eyes at the guy and turned to Miyu. A few more men suddenly stepped out and surrounded the two. Miyu gritted her teeth.
"Isn't she a pretty thing?" One chuckled.
"Why not play with her for a bit?" Another smirked.
Tonoko gritted his teeth and reached for Miyu's wrist, pulling her closer to himself. "Touch her, and you will die." He said casually.
The men all laughed. Some pulled out kunai and smirked. "You think you're a match for all of us?" One asked.
From somewhere up high, a kunai was whipped towards Miyu and she was unable to dodge in time as it embedded itself into her shoulder. "Ah!" She hissed.
Tonoko gritted his teeth, gently pulling the kunai from her shoulder and looked at it before throwing it towards one of the advancing men. Just before it could hit him, or before he could dodge, the kunai bursted into a bright yellow ball of sparking metal. The man wasn't able to dodge it and his body stopped instantly, shaking before falling to the ground. He moved around Miyu, grabbing the one drunk mans arm and swinging him around at the other two. They dodged and stumbled slightly to catch their balance again. Tonoko gritted his teeth and stuck his arms out. Anger was starting to boil within him and two large lightning bolts shot straight from the sky and struck the two men.
Miyu winced at her shoulder wound. It was deep and blood was gushing freely. She let out a shaky breath as she reached around to pull Tonoko to her side. "Hold your breath." She whispered and quickly formed hand seals. A purple mist appeared around the drunk men and they each stopped and fell to the ground. Miyu canceled the jutsu and fell to her knees as she held her shoulder, wincing.
Tonoko frowned and reached down to pick her up in his arms. He looked around at the bodies laying on the ground and moved towards the hospital. He pushed his hands over wound in attempt to make it stop bleeding and hurting less. After reaching the hospital, a doctor quickly took her to a room and stitched up her shoulder - the wound was too deep for even medical-jutsu to completely heal. They also made her stay for an hour with an IV of blood dripping into her arm. Miyu glanced up from the IV at her husband and smiled.
"Have I ever told you how much I love your clans ability?" She asked him simply.
Tonoko smiled. "Which one?" He asked and winked.
She laughed. "Your dads side."
Tonoko nodded as he leaned against the bed, resting his forearm on the bed beside her. He traced his finger lightly over her hand and sighed. "I'm glad I can protect you like that." He murmured.
She smiled. "That's one of the reasons your dad liked your mom, right? Because she only possessed Taijutsu, he vowed to protect her?"
Tonoko laughed softly and nodded. "It made him feel macho towards her. Said it made him feel like a real man when he could protect her as much as he did."
Miyu smiled gently. "I hope you and I can be like your parents... Always there for one another, so close." She smiled. "I'm not saying we aren't now, I just mean... You know, more so..." She blushed faintly, feeling stupid about her own words.
Tonoko laughed softly and reached out to caress her cheek before leaning over to kiss her softly. "Miyu, I understand what you mean." He chuckled lightly and leaned his forehead to hers. "I've watched my parents my entire life, and now that I'm in a relationship myself, I want it to be as special as what they have." His voice lowered and he sighed happily. "I really do love you, Miyu."
She smiled gently. "I know. And I love you too."
At that moment, the doctor returned and checked Miyu's shoulder and then checked how much blood was gone from the bag. He unhooked her and said she was free to go before walking out. Miyu and Tonoko left the hospital to return home, once arriving, Miyu laid down on their bed and let out a sigh and wince - her shoulder hurt a lot, but she was happy to be home.
After Tonoko changed into a pair of pajama pants, he crawled in beside Miyu and rolled over onto his side, propping his head up. He sighed and smiled lightly, looking into her eyes. "I'm glad you're alright." He whispered.
She smiled gently. "This is nothing." She shrugged. "But thanks. A-Are you wanting to now?" She asked, blushing as her eyes trailed his body.
Tonoko nodded slightly and moved his eyes to his hand. "I...just don't want to hurt your shoulder anymore." He murmured.
She shook her head. "I'm fine. She smiled. "You won't hurt me." She whispered, reaching out to touch his cheek.
Tonoko nodded, then smirked. "You'd risk hurting it more?" He asked.
She blushed and shook her head. "I won't. It's fine." She moved to hover over him. "I-I want to... Please.."
A light blush fell over Tonoko's cheeks as he stared up at Miyu. Her hair fell at the sides of her face, a light blush spread across her cheeks, amd her hands on his chest. He nodded slightly and moved his hands to her sides, pulling her slowly down to connect his lips. "I'll be gentle." He whispered against her lips.
She closed her eyes ad smiled. "I know you will." She whispered, kissing back a bit harder.
Tonoko's began to deepen as he wrapped his arm around her waist and sat up, pressing his body against her while being careful of the wound. "I almost feel as if I'm taking advantage of you now." He chuckled lightly and moved his mouth to her neck.
She chuckled and shook her head. "I'm asking this of you." She whispered, clawing his back. "Just be ready to fight me at the end..." She whispered.
Tonoko nodded slightly and moved his hands to the back of her thighs pulling her closer to himself. His mouth moved to her collar bone and he bite it lightly.
She closed her eyes and let out a soft moan. Her hands trailed down his back, her head moving back to give him full access to her flesh.
Tonoko took the opportunity and moved her slowly back so that he was on top. He pulled back slightly and breathed deeply, his hands moving to the bottom of her shirt.
"So beautiful." He breathed as his hands travelled up her side, bringing her shirt up with it. He moved his mouth to hers and bit her bottom lip lightly.
She gasped and giggled lightly. "Such a tease." She whispered, her hands moving down his chest and to the rim of his pants.
Tonoko let out a breathy laugh and pressed his lips harder to hers. "Me? A tease." He chuckled. "No."
She nodded. "Just hurry and take me." She whispered.
A laughed slightly and pushed her shirt off before pulling her against himself. "Gladly." He murmured.
