Ties that bind

[Kililia]

She simply lay on the beach, rolling in the sand and swam back in the water. And lazily layed on edge of the water,letting the water wave hit her.closing her eyes as she enjoyed it so much.

 

[TertiusHuman]

He got out of the water, walked up to the towels, picked up one, he dried himself and wrapped the towel around his waist, taking a seat on the steps to watch Keiko.

 

[Kililia]

Keiko went back in the water and dived deeper then popped out . She look around before getting out and step out of the water. She started walk on the beach to grab her own towel. She walked up to him: " I'm hungry...."

 

[TertiusHuman]

"Let's go have a shower to wash off the sand and I'll take you out for early dinner. I heard that the seafood platters are quite good here."

 

[Kililia]

Kieko headed back to the resort for the shower:" we can just get street food, look delicious than fancy resto..." Ran away,jump in shower, quickly washing up as she grabbed a summer dress to wear*

She headed back to his side:" let's just have street food...than the fancy stuff... It will taste better, no? "

 

[TertiusHuman]

He showered and got dressed in cargo shorts, a loose shirt, and comfortable shoes, he looked at her in her comfortable dress and smiled

"Sure, until we get groceries, I have this interesting friend beef dish that you might enjoy. And I believe you know a thing or two about making food as well."

He picked up his wallet and pushed it into his pocket, taking the keys and making sure the place is closed up and locked before they step out.

"Want to walk?"

 

[Kililia]

Keiko nodded as she walked by his side as he licked the door:" I definitely know how to cook, it's one of the few skills, that I enjoyed learning as tradition...though I still not sure the bonus of it aside save money. As long you don't expect me to be a house wife that cooks for you ...you wont be disappointed"

 

[TertiusHuman]

He chuckled and shook his head, "I have survived without you having to cook for me, so I will most likely not demand it from you. But let's not talk about the current situation at home, time to enjoy our time away from home and the troubles surrounding it."

 

[Kililia]

Keiko couldn't understand how he manage to be like a regular guy now...if she met him this way, she probably be in love hope marry and kids. She almost ran in a pole thinking of this. She gasped as she stopped herself in time and turn to him:" is this all pretend, for me to put down my guard?" She was angry at herself and in conflict:" I mean... What ..is all this...I should be jumping off the balcony or something" * confused and upset at herself*

 

[TertiusHuman]

He looked at her confused why she suddenly turned on him

"What?"

A frown creased his brow

"Why would I want your guard down? Why would you want to jump off a balcony? What is going on?"

 

[Kililia]

Keiko ran her fingers through her hair;" this is not normal.. I am not suppose to get along with you....I mean... With everything that happened between us... I mean... I should be ... I don't know!" * She back away as she try to stay calm*

 

[TertiusHuman]

He stopped and looked at her

"So you want to be married to a man who dominates and punishes you the whole time, a person you can hate? Look, I know that we had the worst start, but there is no reason for us to be able to work together and find a semblance of happiness with each other."

He held out his hand to her

 

[Kililia]

Keiko hesitated as it was hard to trust him but after a moment. She took his hand with her own shaking as she couldn't stop herself:" will you at least try meet me half way...?"
Being that she was of the modern world, she felt she was suppose to run away , fight till the end and not give to him in moments of weaknesses. But she was honestly exhausted of fighting and she was already legally his wife not mention he presented to the heads of the other clan as his woman. He made sure she could not escape her role as his wife and duty as his woman, she was glad that she was still on the pill. As she was unaware he had already changed the pills to make her more fertile and soon mother to his children.

 

[TertiusHuman]

He entwined his fingers with hers and smiled at her

"Only if you are willing to accept my decisions if I do."

Together they walked toward one of the market areas, there were quite a few people walking around and as could be expected, there were numerous food stalls with native dishes which looked strange, but smelled very nice. It was then that he realized that he was also quite hungry after their flight and swimming in the ocean.

 

[Kililia]

Keiko sighed as she followed after him, she knew, he had final say on everything. She hated the fact that she enjoyed these moment together, it was lol confusing her, she knew there was no going back.

Her stomach started growl and she end up buying large bags. She started taste the food and gave him samples. She glared as he only accepted if she fed him herself like a romantic couple. She mumbled:" you being childish, Kento...." She had manage fill first bag and plan fill all 4 bags of food for her husband to carry.

 

[TertiusHuman]

He smiled at her as he carried the bags, "I know you will not give me something if it tastes bad, so if you feed me, I know that I can trust you that it will be good."

In a way it was true, but he also liked that she did actually think about feeding him, it just showed that not all hope was lost, not yet.

 

[Kililia]

Keiko started look through the next spot and started to eat here and there and had him taste the best stuff. She didn't even realized that she only gave him the best and glared at him:" don't be soo sure about yourself... It might backfire..."

She filled the next bag and started bargain price. She always smirked when she won and handed him the bag:" two more to fill..."

 

[TertiusHuman]

"Seems like you are aiming to empty the market and get enough food for the whole week."

He smiled as he said this, taking the extra bags from her. He still ate the food she gave him, even despite her warning, because he knew that she would not carry through on the threat she had made.

 

[Kililia]

Keiko looked at him:" I got it cause I was thinking of cooking something for you you.... But.... If you rather just prefer restaurant food...we can returning all the food..."

She smirked at him:" don't worry, I won't ever cook for you as you seen to complain alot..."

 

[TertiusHuman]

He gave her a faux angry look, "You know, I can still spank the mermaid if she is being insulting."

Of course, he wasn't serious and he believed that she knew that. He just wanted to enjoy the time he had with her and he was hoping to get her to understand him a bit more.

 

[Kililia]

Keiko smirked:" you just want an excuse to spank me...perv..." She was started read him enough to know when he wasn't seríous*

" Let's find a place to sit and rest our feet,I'm getting tired..."

 

[TertiusHuman]

He smirked, "Maybe you like getting spanked? Who is the perv then?"

He chuckled and gave her a wink, he motioned to a corner cafe with umbrellas and seating outside, "Let's sit down there, I could do with something cold to drink."

 

[Kililia]

Keiko literally threw a small fruit at Kento head as he said she might enjoy it. Then she act innocent and payed for the fruit casually and smirked at him daring him do something. She walk pass him:" I want matcha ice cream latte"

 

[TertiusHuman]

He easily dodged the half-hearted throw, grinning at her as she paid for it

"Aww, did I touch a kinky spot there?"

He chuckled as she brushed past him and followed her, she picked a seat and he placed the bags on one of the vacant seats and sat down opposite her, "I never had that very complicated coffee name you used, so I might want to steal a sip of yours."

 

[Kililia]

Keiko enjoyed these small moment and wished she never met him while trying run away. A part of her knew, he was not to be defied as he viewed himself as head of their soon to be family. She wondered how he react when she never end up pregnant, unawared of his trickery.

She pushed the cup to him: " its nice and cool...i love ice cream..." *She watched him taste it: " I can order another one for you"
