Day 6 [Late Evening] My Pony

[Bayushi Suteichi]

He looked at his fan that now rested at her side then looked back at her.

"You know, that fan can hide smiles. I am glad to know that I can put one on your face."

[Shinjo Liu Fei]

"I admit," she said, turning to him. "I have never needed the use of a fan, or have ever used one. Perhaps I will find someone to show me. Along with some of the other, finer, points."

Fei's implied suggestion was obvious to them both.

[Bayushi Suteichi]

"Well, I am sure we can find you a good sensei...over dinner." The desire to want her was irking him. Her presence was more than pleasant to him. For the first time in his life he was at peace.

"I will need to get a new fan."

[Shinjo Liu Fei]

"A matter to discuss," she said in a teasingly professional matter. "As well as to how you managed to lose your only fan."

[Bayushi Suteichi]

"I did not lose anything. I gained a new sense of purpose and direction that I never had before. And I intend to explore this sense of purpose and direction to the very fullest." he replied. It would be evident to her what he was implying.

[Shinjo Liu Fei]

Swiftly taking the fan from her side she unfurled it in between them, not really holding it at all properly but it was enough to show it off. "I hope it was worth the trade," she said, amused from behind the fan.

[Bayushi Suteichi]

"Yes. She certainly is worth it and more." he answered with a faint smile.

[Shinjo Liu Fei]

"Come, lets at least give Gokiburi his stall back," she said, glancing back to her horse with a faint smile. Then, turning toward the exit, she ushered Suteichi out of it. Speaking to herself quietly as he passes, "Before I start thinking this is private enough."

[Bayushi Suteichi]

Suteichi raised an eyebrow, his faint smile upon his face as he heard her.

"Well my Hiomoyasu, I know of a place we can go for...privacy."

[Shinjo Liu Fei]

"Insatiable," she said, shaking her head lightly. As much as she wanted to, she felt the eyes on her already, "After last night I am not so sure that is a good idea, Suteichi." Unless he was sure of its privacy, but she didn't want to show the opening for a push if he wasn't going to make a push for it already.

[Bayushi Suteichi]

Suteichi just merely smiled. She was right about his insatiable appetite for her. He desiered like no other even his sempai. He also knew she was right. The question remained in the back of his mind was her desire of him the same. Then he started thinking that he may be losing some control and needing to get everything under control.

"I stand by your assessment of the matter. I do not need to say how I feel or what I am thinking. You know. Restraint is something that every samurai should exercise. Thank you for reminding me of my early training."

And a bucket of cold water to calm me down.

[Shinjo Liu Fei]

There was certainly a look in her eye, trying hard not to just let herself give in. With the slight privacy she allowed herself something. Placing a hand on his shoulder she looked to him for a moment, a light smile and a direction to their efforts. "When we are married, we will not have to worry about such things."

With that she let her hand slip away and glanced around for a cold lake to jump into, (un)fortunately the stables contained none.

[Bayushi Suteichi]

Correction, TWO buckets of cold water. Very, very cold water


"Then I will await that day when we are wed because there will not be any quiet nights."

[Shinjo Liu Fei]

"Do you intend to play a song for me every night?" she teased with a wide smile, she needed to tease. It was the only way to calm herself down and push away the urge.

[Bayushi Suteichi]

She actually managed to get a laugh out him.

"Yes my burning flame. A song. Every night. You can sing along... I know you have a great voice for it. " he teased.
