D14EM (Bo's rm) Now what? (closed!)

[Usogawa Narumi]

"They hurt you, I will weigh them down with rocks myself and throw them in the river." She says harshly before it's gone and she raises hands to beckon him to sit with her.
"I don't have any choice. We'll see your magistrate." It's said with finality.

[Asahina Bo]

He nods, relieved that she had taken, in his eyes at least, the only logical course of action. There's a chuckle as he thinks for a moment, "I mean in her eyes yer doin' a big favor takin' me off her hands. So she owes ya that much. Otherwise this risks fallin' through and I stay under her command."

[Usogawa Narumi]

She scrambles into his lap, facing him and straddling so his face fills her vision. Arms slink around his neck and fingers toy with his hair lightly.
"You're never a burden to me, Bo." she looks at him seriously, this mountain she's fallen completely in love with, who loved her back so thoroughly.
She felt sick to her stomach to think she'd nearly lost him- still risked losing him- and would continue to think as much every day.

He mentions that despite their planning, nothing is guaranteed yet, and she pouts, nodding. "If ..you stay under her command, we stay there?" If this all falls through, I'll be arrested, she thinks bitterly. Or worse.
And her uncle's blood would always be on her hands. A defeated sigh before she kisses her mountain deeply.

[Asahina Bo]

He offers a reassuring smile, "I doubt there's much risk of that. As I said she wants me gone almost as much as you want me with ya." He lets the comment once more get interrupted by the kiss.

[Usogawa Narumi]

The smile helps, she'll admit. His confidence is reassuring, but she can't let herself believe him. Not really. Not completely.
When she releases him, her arms remain lazily around his shoulders, "I don't think that's possible. After all, I want to wake up to your face everyday for the rest of our lives."

[Asahina Bo]

"Well that's why I said almost... but, yeah, I want that too."

[Usogawa Narumi]

Narumi laughs at that, and holds him close. "So tomorrow we leave then? And go from there, whatever's in store? I'm sorry I hid this all from you. I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you."

[Asahina Bo]

He carefully and gently squeezes her closer, "Yeah, I reckon that's the plan. The quicker we get this dealt with the less we need ta worry about them droppin' some other complication."

[Usogawa Narumi]

She shifts her weight in his lap at the squeeze, getting increasingly comfortable, with a quirk to her lips. "Speaking of complications, though of a decidedly different sort. A good sort. What do you think of children? I-" Her nose wrinkles in thought. "I don't know how many I can give you. It depends on how difficult carrying the first is."

[Asahina Bo]

"Yeah I guess I wasn't exactly easy on my ma... but she did go on ta have my sister so that's a good sign." He chuckles, "I mean it's duty to have 'em but I reckon I'm not in a rush either."
