(D11 EM, Closed, Oubaihime's) Morning Light

[Kitsu Murato]

"Five more minutes then. Just enough time for me to serenade you, if you wish," he offers.

[Kaito Oubaihime]

The girl nodded. "Sing to me."

[Kitsu Murato]

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No, I won't be afraid
Oh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

So darlin', darlin', stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand
Stand by me, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darlin', darlin', stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Woah, stand now
Stand by me, stand by me

[Kaito Oubaihime]

She smiled. "Fine..." Bai offered her hand to the Kitsu.

[Kitsu Murato]

He takes her hand and finds his way to his feet. Then gently pulls her up and into his arms. Since he had agreed to stay with her, he had the good sense to bring a change and had left it in the corner of the room. So he was not going anywhere.

It would give them more time together, which is what he wanted more than anything else.

[Kaito Oubaihime]

As they got up the earth calling was strong pulling him back to the futon. Bai started giggled as the Kitsu was on top of her. "I think the earth doesn't want to get up."

[Kitsu Murato]

"So it would seem," he says, his face hovering just above hers. He put a hand on one cheek and his lips on the other.

"It would have me change my lyrics to 'lay by me'. And I would have no good argument to counter."

[Kaito Oubaihime]

Looking at his eyes and feeling his touch the Kaito blushed. Bai struggled to bring words out at him. Once the brain had settled she smiled. "Maybe..."
