"What would you do? And anyways, I have you. I want you, and I'm not leaving you. So if you want to leave me then go ahead but I will never leave you, unless you leave me." She said, giving him a small face and kissing his cheek."I promise that if I really wanted to be with Hotaru, I would be wanting to marry you right now, and I wouldn't even be laying next to you."
|
"I would have left you. If you still cared for him." he answered before smirking. "But, since you say that.. I believe you. Just know that if you're stuck with me after we marry. I don't think I'd leave." He held her a little closer, kissing her lightly before laying his head back on the pillow. "Well, if anything, if ever you want to leave me, just tell me." he said. He wasn't sure how he'd be able to handle it, but if that was her wish, he'd obey it.
|
"Well..I'm not going to leave you so if your not going to leave me we'll be stuck together for a long time.." She smirked, kissing him back."I don't have feelings for him."
|
Ace smirked, glancing down at her. "Good. To both parts." he said, giving her another kiss before closing his eyes. "So, any other questions you've been dying to know?" he asked.
|
"Hm. What kind of books do you like to read? If you read that is.." She said jokingly and kissed his cheek. She noticed him close his eyes."Tired?"
|
He shook his head lightly, opening one eye to look at her. "Not tired. And I do read. Like suspense books. And horror ones." he said, grinning. "Which type do you like?" he asked, seeming curious.
|
"Well I like..Horror, fantasy, not so much Romance unless theirs something else like action or drama, or horror." She said, leaning her head up to look at him."I like Suspense books too." She said, running her hand down her arm."So, do you want to get up and do something or just stay here?"
|
Ace nodded, agreeing with her on the romance factor. He hated the types that just had that main factor, and nothing else. "Well, we could check out the music room." he offered, glancing down at her to see her reaction to it. He knew she liked playing the piano, and she'd promised him she would play something for him. Now was as good a time as any.
|
"Oooh. That sounds good." She grinned, getting off of him and standing up. She smiled a little and put out a hand to help him up."I forgot all about the music room..and I still never got a full tour of the house."
|
Ace sat up, taking her hand to get off the bed before leading her out of the room. "Then I shall resume the tour while we go to the room." he said, offering her a small grin, gripping her hand a little as they went down the hallway, up some more stairs. "The music room is held in one of the towers, to keep it from disturbing the other rooms and people." he explained. Shin's room was also located in one.
|
Katie smirked, nodding a little."Thats reasonable.." She said, following after him."Why'd Shin get a cooler room then you?" She laughed, brushing her bangs out of her face. She looked at the pictures on the wall and smiled a little."Family portraits? They're nice paintings.." She said, looking towards the ground.
|
He smirked, shrugging. "I didn't care about the room. Besides, he gets spoiled cause he's the youngest of us." he answered, laughing. There were a couple of paintings of the family. "Yep, the darkish reddish haired is our mom. Shin gets it from her." he said, pointing out a nice looking girl in her teenage years. "Though, I'm sure you know that from having seen her around. The other one is obviously our father." he said, nodding at the one with all of them. He smirked again, teasing. "If you don't know, it's the one with black hair." The portrait was a larger one, with all the kids there, sitting or standing around the chairs of the parents. Pretty traditional. Shin was only around two years old, so he was sitting on their mother's lap. Ace himself, was five, and looking a little cross since they were all dressed in formal clothes.
|
Katie smiled, pointing to the little boy that looked lie Ace."You don't look so happy.." She laughed."Ugh, I know! The youngest in our family was so spoiled as a child.."
|
Ace laughed a little, nodding. "Ah the woes of being the non-youngest. Being slightly ignored by the eldest and the youngest." he joked a little before making a face. "I was five. Thus, got annoyed at wearing such stuffy and uncomfortable clothes, in a boring pose for hours." he said, trying to defend himself. A moment later though, he smirked pointing at the younger Drake. "Least I'm better off than him." he said, smugly.
|
"Aww.. He's crying." She grinned, turning away from the picture and giving him a kiss."Come on, lets go see the music room." She said, turning back to look at his mother."Shes very pretty.." She said."And your very handsome. Your father..used to be I guess.." She smirked.
|
He smirked, nodding but glancing at another picture of the help. There was Primrose, a maid, with a two year old child, and other help around the house they'd had before. "Yeah, she is." he said, starting to move to down the hallway again. He didn't tell her that it wasn't really his mother, since neither of them were blond, and he had blond hair instead of the black or red hair of their father and brothers. He chuckled. "Our dad, really lost it and got fatter. Thus why there's no more pictures of him currently." he explained. Since the pictures now had the others, all minus their dad."We have a room made for things that we use for hunting, and other storage rooms, music room, guest rooms." he said, pointing them out, though stopping at the music room door.
|
"Do you ever wonder why you don't have either of your parents hair color? Not thats its a problem its just odd.." She said, runnign her hand threw his hair."Yes, your father is pretty fat. But then again, so is mine..though my moms thin, and beautiful, though... Alvilda looks like her the most."
|
Ace smirked and nodded. "I never had to wonder. I mean, you had to be pretty dense not to notice you were the oddball." he said, not really looking bothered by the fact. "Our father had a relationship. Out came me." he said. His brothers never were bothered by it, since only Keel had been born before him. And the others had known him since birth. So he was as good as any of them. The subject had never been brought on, for there was no need to do so. "Is she? That's nice.. And why is it that they turn fat while the female is still pretty?" he asked, smirking. "I have no plans on becoming fat."
|
"Good, because unlike my mother, I wouldn't be able to stand it.." She said slyly."So your father cheated on your mother? Wow..she must be pretty passive, because if you ever cheated on me I would leave and you would, never. See me again.." She said, sending it as a warning and then giving a small smile before laughing.
|
Ace laughed, nodding, and taking note of that warning. "I'll do my best. And yeah, our mom was pretty docile, and well, she can't really do anything about it, since he'd just shut her up." he said, shrugging. "Besides, she had us to think about."
|
"Well even if I did have kids, if my husband cheated I would take them and go." She said, smirking at him."Which is why you shouldn't mess with other women."Though our father had special sex toys for our workers.. I wouldn't be surprised if he made a couple moves on Hotaru." She laughed,kissing his cheek."But all in all.. we used to be a pretty happy family. Our mothers been sick for the past few years and now were just sort of waiting for her to go.."
|
He made a small face. "I would never go for another guy. And if I ever cheated, I must be either drugged, or drunk off my mind." he said, shrugging before kissing her forehead. "Really? Well, maybe she just needs some time away or something. But, I'm sorry she's been sick." he said, frowning a little. Opening the door, he led her into the room, where a variety of instruments were around the room. A baby grand piano was next to the window.
|
"This is great." She said, going over to the piano and sitting down on the stool."Good. "She said ,pressing her fingers on the keys."Want me to play a song?" She asked, patting the seat by her on the stool."Its fine.. my mother just can't really do much. But she never told us when we were kids because she thought that once we knew..she couldn't act like she wasn't sick anymore around us. And that she would have to deal with our pity, and just seeing the pain in our eyes.. and then one day we all found out, and she was right." She said softly, trailing her fingers along the keys."You know she made lullabys for each of us."
|
He nodded, taking a seat next to her on the stool. He did feel bad for her mother and for them. "I'm sorry." he said. "I suppose the most you can do is just, make sure she's well taken care of." he offered, unsure of what to say in such a situation. "Can you play the lullaby?" he asked curiously.
|
"Yepp, But I can't remember the words so i'll just play the piece..." She smiled, looking down at the keys. She started to play the song softly and then went on with the whole song, trying to remember the words as she went on. This had been her lullaby, the tune sounded sad without her mothers voice singing to it. She looked up when she was done."It sounds depressing by itself by my mothers voice made it really happy.." She said, her fingers still on the keys.
