Hajime: It is dark… Too late maybe to visit a lady but he stops by knocking softly on her door. “Hide… Are you awake?”
Hide: *slides the door open* Yes… good evening…
Auto response from Hajime: I am currently away from the computer.
Hajime: “It’s more like good morning…” *grins*
Hide: Is it that late? *smiles* I didn’t notice…
Hajime: Ah I would’ve stopped by much earlier.. Unfortunately there was no opportunity to do so… So what have you been up to?
Hide: Usual … *frowns* I guess you would find most of my evenings boring. Kimono repair *gives him a -look-*… I just took a bath… still trying to dry my hair. Would you like to come in?
Hajime: Looks around making sure no one sees them… Thinks for a moment… “It would be inconvenient perhaps if someone saw me out here by you.. so late.”
Hide: Then hurry and get in here… *laughs a little* I understand your concern… *sighs* but I still wish to spend time with you.
Hajime: *let’s himself in, feeling a bit out of place but following her decidedly avoiding the kitchen* Let’s go to the living room… The view there is nice… (thnks: pathetic.. there’s nothing to see through the windows… it is so dark out)
Hide: *leads him into the living room, settles down on a cushion* How was your day? *looks at him for a long moment, a little smile on her lips*
Hajime: Ah… Same old thing… It’s very quiet where I work. *smiles back* Perhaps because I’ve been tied to paper work than anything else…
Hide: I couldn’t imagine that being very interesting for you – paper work… *pats next to her* Sit, okay? If you’re going to visit me, then don’t just stand there… *smiles*
Hajime: *chuckles* Alright master… *sits beside her, starts to stare*
Hide: Admit it, you find my fussing at you… charming, ne? *grins* Why the staring?
Hajime: Yes… I must admit I lavish in your -attention- a bit too much.. You’ll have to fix that for me soon…
Hide: Fix that? How?
Hajime: I am -clueless-…. especially now that you’ve just taken a bath… (thinks: yes with your hair smelling nice and your skin glowing)
Hide: Should I have waited for you? *grins… thinking, ah, that was forward, even for me with him … and blushes*
Hajime: *chuckles and grabs her for a moment to smell her* No no… This works… either way it works…
Hide: Ah, good. *smiles*
Hajime: Hhmmm… * smells her a bit more* what do you use? *smirks at her*
Hide: Someone back home makes it – my sister-in-law sends it to me – I’ve always been fond of the smell. I can’t quite place it… it’s subtle. Do you like it?
Hajime: It’s musky…. (thinks: yes very much…) You miss Kyoto don’t you… Lately you’ve been talking a lot about it.
Hide: It’s home – it’s all I know. I sometimes miss it – but … I’ve learned the value of new places, of finding something new. Tokyo…. the air is newer here. Kyoto, in so many ways, is the past.
Hajime: Something new… Yes that is -important-. I’m glad you.. decided to. Kyoto though it is something very… -important- to both of us… even if it’s old…
Hajime: *looks contemplative*
Hide: *puts her hand on his cheek* Very important… *smiles* I’m glad I’m -here- though.
Hajime: like old friends…
Hajime: I am too… *thinks about past* If you want you can talk to me about Souji… Is that how you got here? He was confined here before he died.
Hide: Well, yes, I wrote him, of course… so I knew he was here. *not really thinking that he wants to talk about Souji* But how I picked Tokyo? I knew of some people being here… but I could also live more quietly in a busy place than in some isolated village.
Hajime: Hmmm… alright… You wrote him… Why didn’t you come here to visit him.
Hajime: *looks at her* I’m not getting jealous…
Hajime: (OOC: sorry took long phone)
Hide: No… it’s a good question… it was unsafe to travel. My brother was too young to take me, and my father… was too busy. There was so much going on. So letters… those worked. I hoped that I was bringing something to him. He was so lonely, I think, and scared.
Hajime: Yes he must have… I never wrote him though… *leans back on the sofa* I’m glad one of us did… (thinks: coz I’d be so guilty being with you now)
Hide: No… he understood, what was going on…. even though I think most people tried to keep news from him – but that most everyone wouldn’t be able to write him. *take his hand* I think he knew that.
Hajime: Somehow… I don’t think so. I heard he tried to kill a black cat and failed. He must’ve been very frustrated. *entwines his fingers in hers* We were very good friends. Do you think… if he saw us now… -Together-… *turns his head to look at her*
Hide: I heard the cat story too. *laughs softly* Frustrated … yes. He was devoted to the Shinsengumi, and wanted to be there until the end… *leans her head against his shoulder* But would he mind – you and I – I would think not. Souji and I were always good friends, first – and I think he would be happy to know that we found each other. That two of his dear friends were -together-…
Hajime: Ah.. that’s one way to look at it… *chuckles and brings her hand to his lips* I don’t think I could handle it if he was “alive”… He still could beat me with that sword of his.
Hide: Oh really? He always told me that you could beat him. *laughs* Men…
Hajime: Ah… always was the more modest one… But… I think you beat both of us.. *smiles*
Hide: Hmm… if you look at it like that… *suddenly sits back* Ah, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have rested my head on you…. I’m getting your jacket all damp…
Hajime: *laughs* Should I dry your hair for you?
Hide: Then you would be -useful- *grins* Please? And do be careful, I’m very delicate. *sighs, laughs*
Hajime: *chuckles* shall i use my jacket or do you actually have something -useful-?
Hide: No… *gets up, goes to her room, comes back with a towel and comb* Here. *sits in front of him* Now, be -useful- *looks at him, over her shoulder*
Hajime: *moves her to his lap and turns her head so that all he sees is her hair…* You have very dark hair… *starts to run the towel through them… slowly… watching as beads of water disappear*
Hide: Yes… *resisting the urge to lean back against him, or turn around*
Hajime: *runs the towel one more time through her hair… then to check if it’s truly dry, he runs his finger through them* This should be good enough *folds the towel and stretches his arm around her to give it back*
Hide: *taking the towel, holds onto his wrist as she leans back to brush her lips against his cheek* Ah, thank you, Hajime. For being -useful-.
Hajime: Ah… I should give you reasons to keep me now… *chuckles* I took some pictures of me today that you can keep in your wallet… *laughs*
Hide: I’ll have to add that to my list of things that you’re good at: assisting me in drying my hair. *smiles* Pictures? Ah, that would be nice to have…
Hajime: http://red-bird.org/himuragumiplus/saitou/ *hands her the pictures* (OOC: just found in sherl’s.. she doesn’t know i found it.. hahaha)
Hajime: you can pick one out and… use it to scare the mice away… *pecks her cheek*
Hide: Feh. *looks at them* Very nice, very nice indeed.
Hajime: Feh? *quirks eyebrow* I know they look rather… weird.. but hell! give it back then *scowls and tries to grab*
Hide: The ‘feh” was regarding scaring the mice away… *hold the pictures tighter* They don’t capture your eyes just right….
Hajime: *smirks* You think so too? I rather am not too fond of these eyes… They’re -easily identifiable by people who hate me. *chuckles*
Hide: *turns to face him* Ah, but I am quite fond of them. *smiles*
Hajime: *traces her face… and stares at her hard* even if they scare you?
Hide: Scare me? *realizes what he’s thinking about, says quietly* No… when it’s my Hajime looking at me like you’re looking at me now … I could never be scared. *brushes the hair out of his face*
Hajime: I suppose… I -am- yours… *wraps both arms around her and rests his chin on her shoulder* Today… I was thinking of how you used to play shogi with harada… You were such a sore loser… *chuckles*
Hide: *eyes open wide, and laughs* Sore loser? Ha! Harada-san would -sulk- if he lost, and I would have to take him dinner to get him out of it. *puts her arms around him, taking a moment to register his smell – always with the overtones of his cigarettes, but always… him* *grumbles* But it’s not like I -let- him win, either. He wasn’t a fool like some thought he was
Hajime: Ah yes… Harada had intelligence… behind the funny countenance. *chuckles* After all he would usually win once he says something about Souji to a -certain- Hide.
Hide: Even the mention of my name distracted him? *laughs a little* Those were good times, though, when we had time to play games… I wish you had joined us more often, instead of watching.
Hajime: Well… I was busy carving -things-… *chuckles* never did finish that… But you… were always a welcome “distraction” whenever you chose to speak with me… *nozzles her neck*
Hide: And am I still a welcome distraction? *smiles* Or would you wish to go back to your carving? *brushes her lips against his neck* Whatever was that that you were working on, anyway?
Hajime: Hmmm…. *puts a wet spot on her neck before looking up* to be honest… I don’t remember… *smiles* (thinks: you’ll just have to wrestle it out of me)
Hide: Ah, and here I was, thinking that I was going to get one of your secrets out of you…. *smiles, and kisses him softly on his lips, lingering for a moment*
Hajime: *responds back… trying not to be too -urgent, breaks away* If you stick around… Soon enough I’ll let you know.
Hide: Oh, good, good. *laughs* Then I will be able to figure you out…. *softly* because I will stick around.
Hajime: *smiles* (thinks: I am so happy to hear that…) Oh so you will? *quirks eyebrow* For a moment there I thought you’d runaway… and if you ever did… *glances back at his nippontou on the table*
Hide: *hugs him tighter* Nope. Sorry. Not going -anywhere-.
Hajime: Ah… thought I’d have to commit seppuku or something… at least in IM land… *looks for a moment seriously back at her… before slowly smiling*
Hide: No… here… you have me. (thinks: for always, as long as you want me) *brings her lips to his again*
Hajime: *plays with her tongue… a little bit longer than usual… sucking at it… before letting her lips go with a “pop”* I’ll try to be content for -now-. *smirks* But really… you didn’t like my pictures? *sigh* and I went to so much trouble having them taken…
Hide: I like them, I like them! *rolls her eyes* Not as good as having you about… but I shall have to be content with sitting in the garden and sighing at your image when you’re off… *looks amused*
Hajime: *chuckles at her reaction, suddenly very glad* Ah… yes I shall be going away longer than usual soon enough.. when that blasted rpg starts moving… but i’ll drop by to see you or maybe leave word to your writer… Perhaps… *Iooks thoughtful* you should give me photos of you too.
Hajime: ?
Hide: Ah, yes… *blasted RPG indeed* I shall see what the writer can conjure up. But yes… come by to see me… *rests her head on his shoulder*
Hajime: Hide-dono… You haven’t answered my question. *lifts her head up to face him*
Hide: Yes, pictures. She will have to scan them, I think. I will get them to you. Would you like that one of me with the sword, too? *laughs*
Hajime: Oh yes… Just make sure it’s not stained…. *stops abruptly* have you ever … sliced someone (thinks: rather killed someone? injured someone?)
Hide: Only the writer. *smiles* Oh, the writer is offering pictures … no, not those. Yes, I know he’s seen that … Sorry about that. I’ll see to her later…
Hajime: oh alright… that writer of yours… is a little -useless-… *snickers*
Hajime: i shall not want to see general pictures hide… *smirks*
Hide: Ah. I’ll let her know. You want -those- pictures.
Hajime: every man does i think… when he’s with… ah you know what i mean *pouts*
Hide: Yes, yes. *kisses him* I’ll see that you get -something-.
Hajime: *holds the back of her head… not letting her go of her lips* Hmmm…. Hmmm… *closes his eyes*
Hide: *opens her lips, playing her tongue against his*
Hajime: Ah… *tangles her tongue once more before sweeping the roof of her mouth and letting his tongue exit out slowly tracing her lips… then licking the tip of her nose…* Hide… You kill me.
Hide: *laughs* Hajime, I would hope not…. but that you can’t resist me… *grins* But I’m afraid that I cannot resist you, either.
Hajime: No… In that you are incorrect… I -can- resist you… It’s just that… *gently runs his thumb across her forehead* It’s just that I don’t want to.
Hide: Oh? Should I… not be so -charming-? *smiles a little*
Hajime: LOL… If they put you up on a stick.. toasted you three times… *laughs* Perhaps you won’t be as charming… but that doesn’t mean anything to me.
Hide: Ah… good to know that. *rests her head back on his shoulder*
Hajime: *looks thoughtful for a moment* My skin is rough… These hands… *stares at his palm* These scars… You do not mind them?
Hajime: *chuckles* even my face looks old…
Hajime: *laughs*
Hajime: I think you got the worse end of the bargain.
Hide: *sigh* I like your face, I like your hands…. I like it when your hands touch me. I like it when I see your face and then you look at me. *smiles, looking up at him, tracing the line of his jaw with a finger* I even like that -smirk- of yours.
Hajime: *laughs* The smirk? *smirks a little wider, touches her face and stares* Here you can have all of it… But you shall have to pay… And in ways -unimaginable-.
Hide: Oh? I shall have to -pay-? Do tell….
Hajime: Perhaps in little increments… First with your foot… *reaches down…* then your legs *runs a finger up her leg but skips her thighs*, then your waist *squeezes it* then your neck *runs his lips over it*, then your earlobe *licks it* your cheek *pecks at it* your eyes and nose *kisses it* before of course… I claim your lips… and that *looks at her breast* and … of course this *grabs her in between her legs* You understand Hide-dono?
Hide: *gasps a little as his hand grabs her, a little dizzy after his little “tour”* Hai, Hajime-san. I understand -well-.
Hajime: Hajime-san??? Really now… Do we have to go to such formalities. *grins* After all I’ve seen every part of you… *laughs* (thinks: oh yes.. there is one more place i will explore soon enough)
Hide: *laughs* I don’t think I’ve ever called you that – I skipped right from ‘Saitou-san’ to ‘Hajime’, you know. But if you keep calling me ‘Hide-dono’… *grins*
Hajime: Hai hai… That blasted rurouni… Shall I call you Hime then? *grins completely forgetting the fact that he hasn’t smoke in like almost an hour*
Hide: *kisses him* You may call me what you wish… you’re missing that old nickname already, aren’t you? *kisses again, lingering a little longer, as she starts to unbutton his jacket*
Hajime: No I’m not.. missing it… Hime-sama… Not at all… I can’t liken you to a cat…
Hide: Ah… I see… Hime-sama? That’s quite an elevation from Neko-chan… *laughs*
Hajime: (thinks: because it is…) *chuckles* I suppose so…
Hajime: ah… i see little misao is now speaking to her aoshi-sama.. *chuckles* gomene… I’m taking you away from her too.
Hide: No, no problem. At all…
Hajime: I suppose the weasel is not as demanding as the other you. *laughs*
Hide: I’ve been told that I’m the most demanding of all.
Hajime: Ah… Shall I speak with safety then? *glances back at katana* Perhaps I should just tell her to leave -us- alone…
Hide: Don’t worry. I’ll take care of her. *laughs* She leaves us alone… I don’t think she -wants- to know what we’re up to. *grins*
Hajime: We’re not up to anything… Just a few lust here and there… (thinks: and a bunch of pathetic lines from me)
Hide: Lust? And you’ve been so restrained tonight! *laughs*
Hajime: Ah… But if I -give- you everything you want hime-sama… No… No… I shall keep restraining so that you will still want to see me tomorrow…. (ugh)
Hide: I would wish to see you tomorrow (thinks: and every day after that) no matter how ‘restrained’ you are. *rests her head again on his shoulder, looking thoughtful*
Hajime: (same here…) is that so? your writer will kill you… *chuckles* But if you -insist-… *takes her abruptly and lies her down on the sofa.. almost in a pouncing manner* *smiles*
Hide: *grins* As I’ve said, I will take care of the writer… you gave me that nice, sharper tanto, remember? *wraps her arms around him, moving her face close to his*
Hajime: *smiles while looking deeply in those dark eyes, wondering what really was behind them* I’m on top of you again… *chuckles* Gome ne… But I shall not try anything with you tonight… I just like being in -command-…
Hide: Ah, yes…. I’ve learned. *laughs*
Hajime: Oh so you have huh… *bends down and kisses her roughly… while his hands roamed again to her waist and her breast* God hime-sama… you feel so good against me… *finally manages to say but groans afterwards*
Hide: *runs her hands up his back, kissing his neck* Mmmm…. it is good to have you against me as well, Hajime…
Hajime: (I’m such a masochist…) Glad to hear that your highness… But tomorrow… *tears himself away* I will take something from you… *grins* I shall truly see if you indeed trust me.
Hide: Oh? I shall see, then? *smiles*
Hajime: *pulls her back up, letting her sit on him as he laid back down, their positions now reversed* Hai hai! There’s one thing we haven’t really done yet… *smirks* (i doubt if she’s done it with anyone either) I shall leave my mark permanently… have i told you how possessive and territorial I am?
Hide: I think I’m learning… *skims her hands up his body, bringing her lips close to his, but moving away at the last moment* But if you say -tomorrow-… *shrugs*
Hajime: *tries to catch her lips as it goes away… but fails* Ah… But I want to warn you… So be prepared… *frowns* I’ve been trying to leave my mark now for quite a while but you take too long to show “results”.
Hide: Oh? *confused – what -is- he talking about* I will be prepared. For anything.
Hajime: Glad to hear hime… *grabs her and pulls her back down to claim her lips.. his hands clamping again at the back of her head.. not allowing her to deny nor to move away… Deeply…sucking at her tongue… he closes his eyes to heighten the sensation of her… Releasing her only after he’s sure that she’s out of breath.*
Hide: *breaking away from the kiss, breathless and blinking, moving her arms to hold him close* Oh… yes… *laughs a little, quite a kiss!*
Hajime: *embracing her once again… stroking her hair… loving her smell* Hime… soon alright… I want to see a child with your eyes, with the shape of your face and your disposition… *chuckles* I’m a cop… So I do want results sometime soon.
Hide: Hajime…. *closes her eyes, hugging him tight* We shall have to work on that, then. *smiles, so… -very- happy that he wants that from her – with her* I’m… not young, so… you might need to be a little patient. I would ask your doctor friend but we would both get -fussed- at. But… I want this as well. (thinks: I would just never would have hoped to have thought that you would, as well)
Hajime: Ah… Alright… I shall try to be patient… *strokes her hair* Sumanai… I suppose I’ve been… -rushing- you… I’ll try to be patient… And if you require that doctor, I’ll drag her here whether she likes it or not. (Ah yes… that damnable doctor… always fussing…argh!) I hold her up, watching her face once again. I want to remember that face -always-, even if I do leave everytime I’m needed elsewhere. I sigh a bit… I know it’s rather late…
Hide: *smiling* I shall file frequent reports with you then, ne? *laughs* For I know how you -love- paperwork. *looks at his face for a long moment as he looks at her… just struck again by how much she loves him*
Hajime: I grimace a bit at the mention of “paperwork”. She does know how to push my buttons, in the most weirdest, craziest and yet most meaningful ways. Pushing myself up, I lift her once again and sit her on the sofa. Standing up and grabbing the katana, I look out… Yes it’s very dark… I should go. And yet something tugs at me… Leaving again… Leaving her alone… By herself here… I look towards the right where the kitchen lies. My eyes narrow a little… If I could’ve done that… Then… Anything can happen in this household. What if it is to happen when I am not here? But… It did happen even when I was… I shake my head just slightly trying to calm myself… “Hide… I have to go… Lock your doors… Don’t dare open them till sunrise.”
Hide: *watches as he -looks- at the kitchen… sigh. It will be more time… * I will of course take care of myself. *laughs* Hajime… *rises to stand by him at the door* I will. As should you. *stands on tip-toe to reach his cheek for a kiss.*
Hajime: *bends down to accept… slightly grins and tips his hat* Tomorrow Hide… Do -not- forget… *leaves quickly for the door* end of scene.. LOL LOL LOL
Hide: I won’t. *end scene*
