Chapter 25:
Kazehana rested her head on Minato's naked chest. Minato held her after they found some time alone together. He gently stroked her hair as he looked down to her. Minato was finding it hard to sleep recently as he had a lot to think about. At the moment he was thinking about Kazehana, he sighed.
"Is something the matter, Minato my love?" She opened her eyes and looked up.
"I thought you were sleeping." Minato asked.
"Don't worry about it. Don't avoid the question."
He sighed, "I've been wondering. What if we didn't have children?"
She looked up at him with a worried frown, "You don't want to have children?"
"No, it's not that. I'm just starting worry that we might not be able to have children. That maybe something is wrong with me."
"Don't say that." Kazehana said with a soothing tone. "I'll love you no matter what. I would love to have your children and I am not one to give up on trying so soon. If it is not our fate then I will still love you. We'll just have more time together. I'll be happy as long as I am with you."
Minato leaned down a little and kissed her on his forehead. Minato did feel lucky to have Kazehana in his life, many people would actually just call him a lucky bastard including many of the readers. Minato had less than a week of security and he wanted to use that time to make his Sekirei feel just as lucky.
Time would tell if he would be able to manage such a goal.
Minato tried to spend sometime with all his Sekirei that week though with so many that was easier said than done. There were also other problems, Tsukiumi was doing her level best to avoid him as her face would turn bright red as she was constantly reminded of that night. On a different issue Kagari was avoid Minato like the plague, or some sort of mix of the plague and leprosy. Kagari was dealing with his own insecurities and issues of his own gender identity. So he had a lot on his hands.
Still the ashikabi tried. The day was pretty ordinary for those gathered. They all had a crowed breakfast and then all went to do their own things. Sekirei number 101, Oriha, was doing her usual activities of drink some tea and reading a good book. At MBI her tuner was a woman who enjoy Victorian literature and she would some times read to her. Oriha could be violent sometimes but was mostly peaceful when she wasn't. She lifted her cup and slowly sipped at the drink. She noticed at the corner of her Musubi her her pink maids out sit sweeping. Otherwise there was nothing to bother her. The someone tapped her on her shoulder, she turned around the be greeted by the smiling face of Minato.
"Good morning Oriha." Minato said to her.
"Oh, Minato good morning to you." The Sekirei smiled putting down her cup and book and instead patting down her skirt.
"I was wondering if you would like to do something with me."
"Yes, I would love to do something with you." Oriha said with a smile and blushed.
Not much later did they find themselves at a cake shop in the city. It was basically an all you could eat but for cakes. Her own clothes looked like a maids outfit with in itself so she fit in with the waitresses in the maid outfits serving the customers.
Later they went shopping to a nearby mall and they found a book store that sold old books. They shopped for a little while and Minato got her a copy of a book of written by Charles Dickens. Overall it was a pleasant day they spent together.
The following day he asked Shi out. Shi was dressed in her shrine maiden like outfit and her black hair was in twin pony tails. Shi was a nice girl but shy, like really shy. They went for a walk by the park in the morning and Shi clung to Minato's arm intimated by strangers. Minato noticed this and tried to stay close to her to comfort her, he actually found it a little cute. Shi lived a very sheltered life before MBI collapsed and wasn't used to the outside world and usually got pushed into things. Minato tried to get her to choose something for herself to be a little more open of her desires. Shi ended up picking to go to an ice cream shop and try some ice cream, it turned out that was the first time she ever tried the frozen treat.
"Ah! My head hurts!" Shi let out in pain.
"Ice cream head ache. Don't eat it too fast!" Minato told her trying to stop her form crying.
Though anyone whose ever had an icy treat cause pain could relate with her. After that they ended up watching a movie, unlike the movie that Matsu had chosen days before this movie was a a sweet romantic comedy. During the movie Shi nuzzled next to Minato glad that the darkness in the theater hid her blushing face. Before they headed back to the Inn they stopped at a photo booth and took some photos in it. The photos were silly but Shi treasured them anyway.
The day after that he decided to take Sai out. Sai had short hair and wore a striped top that showed off her midriff and wore some leather bloomers. That outfit got them many looks as they went down the streets. Minato gave suggestions of what to do thought Sai didn't seemed pleased with any of them, she actually seemed a little angry. In the end Minato agreed to go anywhere she wanted to go without so much asking what that place was. The next thing Minato knew they were at some sort of dive bar drinking beers. Minato was old enough to drink he just never really made it a habit. Still he sat down in a booth across Sai drinking. They talked about all sort of things, though he didn't mention it he could see out of the corner of his eye a bunch of guys staring at them, They were ogling her and just giving Minato a 'what is she doing with him' look. He didn't want to ruin anything so he just ignored it the best he could. Besides he had gotten used to getting that look.
Eventually Minato went to the bathroom leaving Sai on her own. Like hyenas finding easy prey the guys who'd been checking her out went towards her. They were all big thuggish delinquents who mostly spent their lives doing less that reputable work. Sai was fairly petite so they thought she would be easy, that was exactly what Sai was hoping for. Sai was fairly violent and she actually wanted a fight. She knew she could fight the other Sekirei but most had lost any desire to fight or if they wanted to fight it was only going to be a sparring session. She felt going to some place like this with people who would cause trouble would be a good place to fight since likely everyone there who started anything deserved to get beat. Basically she wanted to hurt someone. They started with their bad pick up lines which she just ignored as she waited for one of them to do something so she could actually fight back.
That's when some burly guy grabbed her arm and pulled her out of the booth. Everyone other guy who had been watching her turned away afraid to anger him. Sai was perfectly happy like that, she wanted the fight.
That's when someone yelled out, "Let her go!"
Of course that was her Ashikabi Minato.
"Yeah, what if I don't?" He said turning towards Minato.
Let's face it Minato isn't much of a fighter, he's never been in actual fight in his life and if he was in one he would likely be the one who loses. The bar became still when suddenly Minato punched the square on the face. For a moment nothing happened and Minato took a step back.
"Now it's my turn." The bear of a man said in a dark menacing tone as he raised his fist to hit Minato back.
Before he had a chance to throw that punch the strings at the end of Sai's arms struck him on the side tossing him across the bar. Sai quickly grabbed Minato's hand and pulled him out of the bar. Before anyone could chase them she picked him up and leapt onto the nearest building and kept leaping away until they were safe.
"What the hell were you doing?!" Sai yelled at Minato. "I could defend myself. You could have gotten seriously hurt."
"I'm sorry." He bowed to her. "I didn't think. I just didn't like how they guy just grabbed you, I didn't want to see you get hurt."
He was an idiot, or so Sai concluded. Still she knew that even so he would do anything he could to protect her. She leaned in and kissed him on the lips, the contact made her wings light up behind her.
"Let's go home." She whispered to him,
She didn't feel much like fighting anymore.
On the next day Natsu the knife throwing sekirei went out with Minato. Her usual purple top, gloves and skirt freshly cleaned. She smiled a taking Minato's hand as they walked down their path. Minato had heard there was a fair nearby and invited Natsu to come long with him. It was a fairly easy going day, they rode on some rides and had some snack at the stands. As they walked in between the various stands something caught her eye, a large stuffed teddy bear.
"Do you want it?" Minato asked seeing it was a prize for a darts game.
"Okay." Natsu answered a bit shy.
The game was pretty simple if Minato was able to pop five ballon with six darts he would win the bear, the problem was that his aim got him two if he was lucky. Still Minato had decided he'd win that bear for her so he kept trying. Minato must have spent a lot of money trying, more money than the bear was worth but finally he won it.
"Here you go." Minato handed her the bear happily.
"Thank you." She took it happily.
Natsu had great aim and even though she would have used dart instead of throwing knifes she could have easily won it, still it mean a great deal that Minato would try so hard for her. She squeezed the teddy bear tightly happy to have such a caring ashikabi.
The next day started out much like the others. Benitsubasa was day dreaming when she got nudged by the ever jubilant Musubi, "What do you want big boobs?!"
"Oh, I was trying to wake you." Musubi smiled innocently. "It looked like you were about to fall asleep. If you want I can clean here and you can take a nap."
Benitsubasa nodded and walked away. She didn't feel tired but she'd take any excuse not to clean. She was wearing the maid outfit and she hated it and hated that Musubi looked so much better than she did in hers. As she walked she noticed out of a window Kagari leaving again, he had been going to the hospital everyday for reasons she didn't know. She did notice that Tsukiumi seem to vanish too.
Benitsubasa paused as she spotted Minato.
"Hello Benitsubasa." Minato told her. "Would you like to do something with me?"
"Huh?"
"Would you like to do something with me?"
Benitsubasa didn't know what to say she tried to avoid him while she was forced to wear that costume. "Maybe..."
"Is something the matter?"
"No..." She lied.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Well I have something to say." Minato smiled. "I've talked to the others and I got them to agree that you don't have to wear that anymore."
"What?"
"Well it was for a punishment but I forgave you a long time ago. I didn't even want to make you but I convinced the others to let it go."
"So you don't like me in it?" She asked not knowing why she even brought it up.
"No, I always thought you looked cute in it."
Her face turned as pink as her hair, "Really? Even when my breasts are smaller than Musubi's?"
"You're cute it doesn't matter how the others look."
That pink face went red. "So you really don't care about breast size?"
"Uh, I guess I don't."
"Okay, I think I would like to go out with you. After she got changed the pink haired fighting Sekirei went with her Ashikabi to get something to eat.
Later they returned back to the Inn Minato asked, "Did you have a good time?"
"Yes, I..."
"What?"
"Uh, if you liked the maid outfit on me... maybe I could wear it..." Her face turned ultra red. "in my room."
Minato simply smiled warmly at her. Minto loved his Sekirei and did show them that through his actions. He didn't get a lot of sleep that week, for various reason but as he held Benitsubasa in his arms as she slept he was worried.
The next day he had to go to the MBI meeting and if something went wrong Izumi would take over and they might lose not only the Inn but how they lived.
