To end a painful evening (D5 LE Closed - Amaya's)

[Seppun Hideo]

After a long deep kiss that seems to go on forever, Hideo ends the kiss and places a few soft kisses along the girls neck, before whispering "I hope my company is much better than his my dear Amaya."

[Ide Amaya]

At first, her only answer is a small sound of pleasure. "Infinitely better," she whispers.

[Seppun Hideo]

"Good" he whispers softly in her ear after placing a gentle kiss on it. He strokes her sides, then moves to look her in the eyes as he added "I wish to make you smile, and to make you happy. And perhaps selfishly" he kissed her on the lips again "I would like to be the only guy on your mind. How may I make your evening as joyful as you make mine, my dear Amaya?"

[Ide Amaya]

She whimpers when he kisses her ear, "it's very hard to answer questions when you kiss me like that."

[Seppun Hideo]

Hideo chuckled. "So you want me to stop kissing you? I can pause while you answer if you wish."

[Ide Amaya]

"For a moment, please," she says sadly. "We should at least drink a toast to Chi-Pu."

[Seppun Hideo]

Hideo nodded - it was a bit of a mood flattener, but she was right after all. "Hai, lets." He topped the drinks up, and then picked his cup up. He allowed her to do the toast, as Chi-Pu was her kin.

[Ide Amaya]

Grateful for his understanding, she picks up the sake cup. "Chi-Pu..." no words come, only tears. She swallows and, instead, she sings.

[Seppun Hideo]

Hideo finishes the cup in a single mouthful, and lowers his head as she sings. He offers a silent prayer to the woman who seems to have had such a strong effect on Amaya, eyes closed, while allowing Amaya to finish her song.

[Ide Amaya]

When the song is over, she drains the sake cup. She sets it down in a firm, determined manner. "Let us consider the matter concluded. I do not wish to think upon it any further tonight."

Sake consumed: x4

[Seppun Hideo]

Hideo placed his cup down, noting how she had done it and her tone of voice. He topped the cup up again. "Hai, back to focusing on Amaya-chan and bringing her beautiful smile back, neh?" He placed his hand on hers, giving her a smile.

[Ide Amaya]

She tries to smile, but it doesn't reach her eyes. Then she puts her other hand on his shoulder and leans in. hungrily pressing her lips to his. The kiss does not linger, but is urgent and needy. When she draws back again, "tell me again where we'll go after the ma-ai, I want to dwell on something happier."

[Seppun Hideo]

Hideo was surprised by the forceful kiss, mentally adding up sake drinks in his mind as he presses into her kiss, before she pulls away. He smiled, only one place coming to mind as he pulls her to him for another kiss before he spoke. "Perhaps the gardens of Otosan Uchi would be a better thought process. The first that comes to mind is a small rock garden in the Northeastern outer district of Otosan Uchi. While the district itself isn't a nice area, the garden is quite serene. The shintao rock garden is a main center piece, but the garden cleverly arranged hedges and walls preventing sound from moving among the paths. It was designed so that young lovers might talk in privacy."

[Ide Amaya]

"Privacy, hmm? Do you wish to hide me away from all the world, Hideo-San?" She caresses his cheek.

[Seppun Hideo]

"On the contrary; I want the whole world to see you at my side, your beautiful eyes and sweet smile showing the world the picture of a perfect lady of the Seppun" he placed a few gentle kisses on her neck as he added "but I want moments of privacy to tell you I love you, to hold you in my arms and say your embrace makes my heart race, and fills me with blissful joy and happiness. That you light up every moment just by being there."
