Time Stamp: Tessera 28, 81379 Tian opened the door to the new condo with her brand new set of keys and smiled. "This is it...our new home..." she walked into the room carrying a couple of duffle bags of not just clothes but also many valubles of rare designs. The condo wasnt very large....not nearly even a 6th of the large mansion she and her love, Kira, used to live in in Watani. But...it was..... cozy. 2 bedroom 2 bathroom, a kitchen, a dining room and a nice cozy living room. It was nice....but no good place to hide anything due to it being a condo. She would have to place many of her things in the bank. But...it reminded her of home....her old home she grew up in. She liked it. It reminded her of the happy days she lived with her father before her criminal days, before the days she even knew sex appeal was the best way to get anything you want. She smiled and dropped the bags on the floor and moved to the large window in the living room. "Oh look at that...we can see the city barriers from here...such pretty colors" she said softly.
Kira followed behind, shutting the door behind them and laying down on the couch, looking out the window. <span style='color:green'>I never got to ask you about your parents, how are they?</span> He said, stretching his wings and then letting them frap over the couch, tow of them molding back into his body as he relaxed, watching the sunset.
Tian went quiet. She looked back at him breifly "They're dead....." she said softly. she looked back out the window. "My mother died when I was born..my father devoted his life to me....eventually dyieng about 10 years after I left home.... I never told my father what i was doing in my life...but somehow i think he knew...he knew about the conartistry, the sex, everything." She held back a little whimper. "It started as whoring myself out...but then i learned i can get more than money with my looks....and thats how i repaid him. He devolped drugs so i could keep sane and i just let the innocent me die....the girl he tried to let live on..what was left of my mother...." she shivered. "But what did it matter..i sucked at everything else...i wasnt smart...i would just be flipping burgers if i didnt do what i do today" she looked back at him again, guilt in her eyes.
Kir walked over to her and hugged her, tilting her head up and shaking his head. <span style='color:green'>But nothing is ever totally destroyed or forgotten, thats why you feel guilty right now, because the innocence inside you is still alive</span> He said, resting his head on her shoulder. <span style='color:green'>Besides, how would I ask your parents for their daughters hand in marrage if i knew nothing about them?</span> He said, smiling at her.
"It wouldnt matter now though then-" she stopped blinking for a moment, her breath became quick and nervous "What Kira? Wha-What?" she turned around in his arms and looked up at him. "What?" she said confused.
<span style='color:green'>I said I wanted to ask for your hand in marriage.</span> He said, getting down on one knee <span style='color:green'>Tian, will you become my mate?</span> He asked, pulling out a shimmering necklace and putting it on around her neck, the jewel that he was stealing when he first met her was the centerpiece of it, surrounded by a silver chain. He stood up as he put it on her, smilng at her the entire time and seemingly calm. Calm down, calm down...AGGHHH what if she says no, what if I did something wrong... He thought as he awaited her response, hoping for a positive answer.
She looked at the necklace for a moment before tears began to well into her eyes and she looked up at him. She began to cry a little harder now, but not out of sadness. "Oh Kira.....Y-Y-Yes...." she said with a quivering smile. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him deeply. She nuzzled her head into his neck afterward crying with a big smile. "Oh....Im so happy"
SHE SAID YES, SHE SAID YES He thoguht, his mind to frazzled to think at the moment. He returned the hug, resting his head on her shoulder and wrapping his wings around her, pulling her as close as he could without hurting her. His eyes shined with a look of pure love as he gazed at the beauty in his arms. Unable to resist any longer, his lips claimed hers in a firey kiss, his breathing heavy as excitement rushed though him.
She giggled and kissed him back. "Oh, this is more than expected" she laughed and put a hand on his chest. "Kira, you have been the greatest man i have ever met, treating me like a person and not like some eye candy, you defend me and care for me. I promised myself i would never really fall in love but you managed to get me to fall in love, and I love you" she smiled and put a hand on his cheek, rubbing it lightly. "i dont need the money or the nice big house...i just need you"
<span style='color:green'>As I need you, Tian'sla</span> He whispered to her, still holding her in his arms, knowing that his actions spoke enough about his love for her. Her scent intoxicated him, the feel of her body and her kisses were like a drug to him, driving him to a world of bliss. He didn't care what happened, as long as he could have and please her, that was enough. No long winded speeches on how much he loved her, no elaborate gifts, but just actions from the heart, and maybe a gift once in a while, were necessary to show his love.
Tian smiled and purred deaply, resting her head on his chest. She closed looked out the window at the barrier. "Im sure we will be happy here for a long time together...i know its not the same size or as nice....but its cozy...." she smiled warmly, looking up at him.
<span style='color:green'>I already told you, I don't care as long as I have you</span> He said, her purr relaxing him and making him sit down on the couch, pulling her with him. He gently tilted her head up and kissed her softly, his arms wrapping around her and pulling her up so that she was sitting in his lap as he kissed her, one of his hands now cupping her chin as he began to eepen it, bending her back a little, pressing their bodies together.
Tian nodded and closed her eyes, kissing him back just as he did to her. She continued to purr and let him do what ever he wanted to her, letting him lead on...she was just in a trance from all the excitement of getting married and such.
Kira moved down to her neck, nibbling at it and giving it light kisses, his hips grinding against hers as the passion built between them. <span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class='ooc'><tr><td>cant think</td></tr></table>
Tian was enjoying it and all but...she felt something pulling at her...softly she began to push him away. "Kira....." she bit her lip. "can you stop for a moment...." she blinked and hoped he wouldnt get upset.
Kira gave her one last kiss on the neck before pulling away, looking at her with worry in his eyes. <span style='color:green'>What is it, did I do something wrong?</span> He asked, resting his head on her shoulder and relaxing, a little dissapointed that it didn't go any further, but he could wait.
"Kira....what do you know about me" she stroked his cheek lightly as she asked him this, looking into his eyes with a soft compassion of both worry yet love. ""For some reason now..i get this feeling that we barely actually know each other...we have been close since we met...but....." she looked away sorrowfully. "Something doesnt seem right..."
<span style='color:green'>I know I love you, I know that your parents are dead, and I know that you love me</span> He said, stroking her cheek with the back of his hand. <span style='color:green'>But you are right, where were you born, how idd you grow up, why did you swear never to love?</span>
She smiled at him fondly "I was born in Swaraj 24 years ago...lived with my father most of my life till he had me go to school..but we always kept in contact." she bit her lip as her next part began..... 'I swore to never love because at the age of 10 i thought i met the love of my life...we dated throught school...till i caught that bastard fucking some girl from behind in a parking lot" she growled "He broke my heart...so then i became obessesed and depressed even more, as you knew i have depression and skitzophrenia...,and kinda based my life afterwards to never really love..." she frowned. "I was acting so foolishly..." she looked away
<span style='color:green'>You did not act foolishly, you overreacted to a situation that hurt you. It's a normal response, and you don't want to do it again because you are afraid you might get hurt.</span> He said, turning her head back to face him as he held her close, smiling. <span style='color:green'>But you recovered enough to take a chance with me, and that chance paid off, for both of us.</span>
