Title: The Courtesan (SakuMiya)
Author: krystalkatz
Rating: PG
Length: Chaptered
Genre: Au, fluff

Pairings: Sakurai Sho/Ninomiya Kazunari,

Disclaimer: I only own the plot

Nino was glad that Sakurai was holding onto him when they were standing in his main hall face to face with the bitch that had almost killed his baby brother. Lady Sakurai was eying them both with loathing and a nasty glint in her eyes and Nino was very tempted to punch if off her face and would have done if Sakurai didn’t link their fingers together and hold him

“You want to divorce me?” She scoffed her evil eyes glinting dangerously “And for what? A legal marriage to that thing? A paid lover that could never give you an heir… You’re already rushing to your 40’s my dear husband”

“And I would not be able to trust any child that you bore me, my dear wife... I would never know for certain if it really was mine…I have no desire to spend a fortune of my land on paternity tests. Instead I will marry Kazunari if he’ll have me and I will make Masaki my heir…” Sakurai announced calmly and quietly. Nino blinked his eyes widening as he heard that, he had guessed that Sakurai had meant that he wanted to marry him when he said a new deal but the part about Masaki becoming his heir that was completely unexpected. But it was a touching moment, and Nino felt his heart dance inside his chest as he looked up into Sakurai’s face excited by the way he felt. The lady Sakurai stared in horror, her breath catching in a long drawn out hiss before her face changed into a smirk

“You can divorce me if you want… And you can marry as many whores as you want… But as our fathers instructions you will have to give me half of your lands…” She declared glee echoing around the almost deathly silent room with each word. As she finished though Sakurai just let out a loud laugh his hand going up and down Nino’s back comfortingly.

“My dear, I really wouldn’t try pushing for that I suggest that you leave gracefully… Unless you would like Kazunari to push the fact that you and your… What is he? Third lover denied a child his medication and that your lover has been denying the correct treatment…” Sakurai growled his voice icy as he looked at his wife and Nino almost trembled against him but Sakurai’s hand was on his back soothing away the nervousness with gentle warmth and pressure

“What?” She gasped her face paling which surprised Nino a little. Nino had been sure that she knew about that but judging  

“The doctor has not been giving Ninomiya Masaki the medication paid for his lungs are almost beyond the repair of medication, are you trying to say that you don’t know about that?”

“I didn’t! I swear…” she said her pixie like face becoming so panicked that Nino almost believed her that she didn’t know “I asked him to deny him his medication but it was only for a few hours…”

“Then it seems he was acting on his own if questioned though do you think he would keep up that story… or would he sell you downstream? Do you really trust him enough to find out?”

“So after our two years of marriage you’re going to leave me with nothing?” She wailed suddenly, her eyes widening and Nino inched closer to Sakurai unsure what he was feeling.

“Not at all, you’re just going to be overly generous with your half and use of it to get Masaki a full transplant” Sakurai answered with a smile that was well and truly saying ‘I’ve got you know bitch’. “Understand?”

“And you think that people… The tiered nobles do you think that they would accept you leaving me with nothing while you make your lover… Your whore… Your what... Your wife…” Lady Sakurai snapped her arms waving around like a windmill.

“My husband… Or… I hope he will be…” Sakurai looked at him with a sheepish smile the wrinkles forming at the corner of his eyes and Nino reached down linking their fingers together resting his head against his shoulder

“I’d like that, my lord” he said breathlessly his heart feeling like it was beating in his mouth.

“This wasn’t your proposal…” Sakurai said sounding a little panicked and Nino grinned at him “I promise that I’ll do it better… Later I swear…”

“I thought that it was perfect, My lor-“ Nino said stopping when Lady Sakurai gave a howl and ran passed them swearing that she would make them pay. “I’m sorry about this, My lord…”

“There is nothing that she can do to us… And please Kazunari call me Sho…I’ve known you since you were a child after all…” Sakurai told him in a soft voice

“You…What?” Nino sighed sinking against the wall in his surprise and Sakurai gave him a small, almost bashful, smile his fingers running through his greying hair, the lines around his eyes becoming more pronounced

“Its true, I was a friend of your parents…I would come to visit you in your halls…you would sit on my knee…I never saw your brother, when your mother died your father became a different man and then the Matsumoto’s did what they did…When I heard I wanted you to live here but I could not find you…I never expected to find you again running a brothel…”

“My…Lord…”

“Of course you have changed so much since you were the boy that sat on my knee as you played with your toys and I did not recognise you…You look like neither of your parents…But like both of them…” Sakurai smiled his hand rubbing at his face his thumb brushing at the shadows under his eyes and Nino shivered at the truly loving gesture “There’s more Kazunari….”

“Oh?” Nino asked looking at the nervous expression that had just filled Sakurai’s face and he almost chewed through his bottom lip as he waited for Sakurai to speak again

“You are my godson…” the lord told him and Nino’s mouth dropped open his eyes forming two wide circles in his suddenly snow white face

“I…What?” He gasped his voice coming out as a breathless squeak that sounded strange to his own ears

“Your parents gave me the honour of naming me your godfather…I…”

“But we’re not related by blood right?” The courtesan asked quickly his stomach churning at the thought and Sakurai shook his head giving a laugh

“No do you think that I’d ask you to marry me if we were related by blood…Never…But as my godson you are my legal heir but when we get married I would change that to Masaki-chan…” He said softly and Nino breathed a sigh of relief “We could try and get the Ninomiya lands back if you wanted…”

“I’m happy enough…You’ve given me more than enough Sho” Nino told him slowly giving a smile and Sakurai kissed his nose holding him tightly

“I would give you everything Kazunari…Anything you asked for…”

“Sho…” Nino whispered tears filling his eyes unable to believe that this was happening to him. When his parents had died and Masaki had gotten the dust he had given up on everything, he had felt that it didn’t matter what happened to him as long as Masaki was alive he could do anything but now…Now he realised how much he wanted somebody to be the one that was taking care of him “Just give me yourself and that’s enough…”

“I’m yours, Kazunari…Now shall we go and see your brother?”

“Yes…We can tell him that he’s going to be my best man…”

Ninomiya Kazunari and Sakurai Sho married a week after Sakurai’s divorce came through and two weeks after Masaki had recovered from his operation. The former lady Sakurai did try to cause problems for the couple but her protests were immediately shot down by Lord Sakurai’s security. Masaki was name heir by the happy couple and he slowly got to know the young noble Matsumoto Jun and the two grew close enough that Jun disowned his family and became a healer focused on curing the Dust. Lord Ohno moved away from the area and eventually settled in a fishing village where he married the son of the local lord Ikuta Toma.
