The rest of the day passed in a blur with them moving on and Jun staying asleep against his legs. More than once he had tried to move to relieve his legs but Jun just held his legs refusing to allow him to leave. He hadn’t been planning on going far away but his legs had gone numb from the waist down and he knew that when he could move again there would be tingles throughout his body. Eventually, lulled by the gentle movement of the carriage, he fell to sleep his hands continuing to move through the soft hair of his husband.

“Sprite…Sprite…” A voice called a hand shaking on his shoulder and Kazu opened his eyes slowly surprised to see himself staring into the expressionless face of his husband. Jun was still looking a little fevered and sweaty with very pale lips his breathing a little ragged. The bandage that he had placed on his chest was still in place and thankfully there was no blood seeping through.

“Um…How…Are you feeling now?” He asked rubbing the sleep from his eyes as he ruffled his hair with his fingertips before reaching out to touch the bandage stopping when Jun gave a small hiss. “I am sorry…Did…I hurt you?”

“No...I am fine…” Jun answered slowly capturing his hands squeezing his fingers. “…I think that you have saved my life, husband…”

“…You…You are being dramatic…” Kazu stammered his cheeks burning brightly as he looked at their joined hands for a second or two. “It was not even that deep of a wound…”

“And yet in only a few hours I was left as weak as a kitten...” Jun sighed releasing his hand and closing his eyes tightly flopping back against the seat of the carriage. He looked almost vulnerable with his hair flopping over one eye biting on his lip his body shivering. Kazu was about to open his mouth, wanting to speak but the carriage came to a stop and the door opened. Kazu blinked at the light hit them and he smiled when he saw Yun standing there.

“We have arrived at the inn my prince, lord…” The old man said slowly and Jun gave a nod his face filled with arrogance again as he slowly rose to his feet and got out of the carriage holding his hand out for Kazu’s. Kazu promptly gave it somehow knowing that there was little chance that his lover would allow anybody else near him now. As if to prove that point he tugged him to him and marched them towards the inn without so much as looking at anybody else. The inn was different than the first, this time made of a deep rich wood and surrounded by smaller houses the occupants all straining to look at the royal carriage and party. Kazu didn’t have time to get embarrassed though as he was tugged inside and then guided towards a table that was far away from anyone else.

“…Husband…” Kazu whispered softly a nervous lump coming to his throat when Jun’s eyes turned on him and he wished that he could find the courage that he had in the carriage again “Are you sure that you wish to stay down…I…You…You are still looking…”

“I am fine…Some food and drink will make me well again…But…” Jun snapped before his expression cleared and he gave an almost smile “Thank-you…For your concern…”

“…You are my husband...” Kazu whispered bowing his heart trying to ignore the way that his heart turned telling himself not to fall for his kindness, it seemed that every time he did it was only a few moments before the dark side of Jun came back out leaving him confused again.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

“You are not coming in?” Masaki asked looking at Toma who shook his head giving a very small smile as he stroked the mane of the horse. His eyes moving to the door of the inn before sighing and saying;

“I think that for now it would be best if Jun saw less of me…Being the bad guy has its downsides…Go…Go before your husband decides that I am trying to steal you as well…”

“My husband would never think that…He knows that I only love him…” Masaki laughed confidently looking across the courtyard to Sakurai who was watching him almost like a puppy his eyes shining with all the love that he had been seeing for years and he knew that would be reflected in his own eyes. Toma gave a laugh, a slightly mournful little sound, and Masaki flushed brightly embarrassment flooding through him as he turned to look at the man who was rubbing the back of his neck with his thumbs.

“Ah my lord you make me jealous…Go now and leave me alone with the only thing that will ever love me my horse…” The man said putting his hand on his back pushing him physically towards Sakurai. Sakurai’s arms were held out to him and Masaki hurried to fill them. He rested his head against the shoulder allowing his warmth and smell to wash over him. They had both spent most of the journey here worrying about Jun and Nino even though they had promised that they wouldn’t do that anymore. Neither of them had been able to come up with a way of helping them anymore than they already had been and tomorrow they would be separating.

“Husband, please tell me that Nino and the prince will find a way…” He breathed into the neck and Sakurai’s arms tightened around him a little more and Masaki felt a kiss land on the top of his head before he whispered;

“…They will be fine…I think and I hope that if people give them space…I know that Toma was just trying to help but I think that he might have set things back…It just depends on how your friend reacts now…”

“But Kazu is terrified of him…He cannot even speak to him without flinching…I have never seen Nino like this…” Masaki sighed worrying at his lip until Sakurai stopped him with a finger shaking his head gently;

“Nor have I but…I know that Nino is stronger than he is being now…And when he discovers that, my friend will not know what hit him…That is the reason that I suggested the union to the king…”

“You…But I thought the Ninomiya’s…” Masaki frowned. He couldn’t remember much about the process but he was sure that Lord Ninomiya had sent a letter to the king talking about Nino like he was a horse.

“They put his name forward but the king…Save from Lady Kazuko, he is not fond of the Ninomiya’s and he brushed it aside until I told him that Nino was more like his mother…” Sakurai told him and Masaki couldn’t help but nod. Even if you were just going on looks you could tell that Nino had nothing in common with his father or brother, his looks and personality were completely that of his mother “...And that if anyone could handle Jun’s more dramatic flares then Nino would be able to…I would not have said that if I did not feel it…Please, my love it has only been a few days and things are still strange for them but please do not worry…One day soon your friend will realise that Jun’s bark is very much worse than his bite and when that happens my friend will not help being wrapped around Nino’s finger the way that I am yours…”

But I hope we will see Nino starting to enjoy his as well...
For now, all he did was suffer, my poor thing!
I want him to be happy beside the man who he will have to live with forever!
