And Sakamoto gives Akimitsu some much needed advice on how to treat a lady. Will he get the message?

Chapter 10: Advice About Girls

A couple of hours later, Akimitsu was laying down in his room, just thinking about how much Shizue can't stand him because of his immature, perverted behavior, but he knows that there's more to him than she thinks and no matter what he tries to do to impress her, it backfires on him badly. He has hidden feelings for Shizue, but isn't sure how she would want to see in him. But he also knows that he wants to marry her to bring peace to their clans, even if it means taking in some responsibility...which to him is a huge pain because he's used to being lazy and sleeping around.

The white wolf lets out some heavy sighs and a few sad whines whenever he thinks about it a lot and soon enough, Sakamoto comes in the room and he said, "I thought I found you here."

"Hey, Saka." Akimitsu said, sadly.

Sakamoto was familiar with that tone in Akimitsu's voice whenever something bothers him deply and he sat down next to him on the bed and asked, "What's wrong, Aki?"

"Nothing." Akimitsu answered.

Sakamoto looked at him in the eye and he told him, "Akimitsu...I know you too well to hide something from me."

Akimitsu knew Sakamoto had a good point with what he meant by that and he lets out a long sigh and asked, "Saka...am I doing anything right with Shizue?"

Sakamoto was surprised when Akimitsu mentioned something about Shizue and that was very unexpected and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Well...am I really the right guy for her?" asked Akimitsu.

"Honestly, what do you think?" asked Sakamoto.

"A part of me has feelings for her, but I'm scared that I might screw up and she'll reject me for whatever reason. I want to end this war between the two clans with her in order to bring peace. But that's too much responsibilities to carry for me. What do I do to make her impress me?" asked Akimitsu, a little worried.

Sakamoto clears his throat and replied, "Maybe if you stopped spying on her or any other women in the bathroom or stop making any crazy attempts to impress her, it could happen."

"Often times, I'm so desperate to find the one for me. When there are beautiful girls all around you, you don't know what to do when you first meet them. I'm always tongue twisted, nervous and a little insecure at times...and I guess my father's 'perverted' ways helped me to gain girls' attention, but not in the right way because I end up getting punched, tied up, thrown out, slapped or kicked many times." Akimitsu explained.

Sakamoto rolled his eyes in surprise to that and he said, "I guess you take after Hayate."

"No, I don't!" Akimitsu said, in defense.

Sakamoto chuckled at that and he said to him, "Here's the best advice I can give you in order to make a first impression when you meet a girl and I suggest you take the same tip every girl says; just be yourself and relax and try not to do anything too stupid."

Akimitsu blushed in embarassment after Sakamoto pulled out the last part and he scratched the back of his neck and said, "I guess I'm good at the last part. I always do stupid things to impress a girl; like when I walked to Shizue's room and sung a song to her...howling of course, snuck into her room and tried to sleep with her, but it ends up with me getting beaten by her father."

"That's rough." Sakamoto added.

Akimitsu nodded his head and then, he turned to Sakamoto for a moment and he said, "Unless...you can be my fall guy. Saka, I need your help to get girls and Shizue to like me. If that means go up and beyond, so be it."

Sakamoto was immediately shocked by Akimitsu's idea and he said, "You've got the wrong panda to be involved with in your ideas, Aki. Besides, I'm engaged, remember?"

"Bao-Yi won't have to know about it. I'll just say I talked you into it." Akimitsu replied.

"This is a very bad idea." Sakamoto said.

I see Sakamoto and Akimitsu kinda like Hayate and Oak Sung in their younger years. Amazing how it turns out, huh? Stay tuned for more!
