(It's fine as long as you're not doing anything major like killing off my character or something)

Enzo nodded his head to her then he kissed her on her cheek getting to her ear to whisper, "If you want to go back to your home then I will be with you, no matter what the punishment." He said to her keeping her close while they were together, "I won't stop you if you wish to quit. And if anyone forces you back into it I'll chop their head off for you." He said then he softly kissed her lips, "But since I'm still going to need to earn the money for the food and shelter, I'll change from being an assassin to being a bounty hunter. It's an option to kill the target, and they give you more bringing the target alive." he said to her with his smile, "I have to keep the rice on the table in some way, and what better way than doing something that you're good at with extra perks." He said to her then he hugged her, "And I am happy with my decision. I want to be with you, maybe after a while start a family. I want to live with you."

When the pair started walking, Enzo kept a hand around her waist keeping Lei close to him, "I'm guessing that your town, Kobe is more of a rural location than this. You sounded very cheerful after I suggested moving out to the country side."

(Ack! Sorry its so short sweetie @_@ I do not want to control your character to often. That is unless if it is alright with you.)

Enzo was always so sweet to her. He always knew exactly what to do and what to say to make her smile. This was the only man she wanted to be with. somehow she knew the moment she met him that they would be together for the rest of their lives. "You mean it? You would be willing to move to kobe with me?". Lei wondered what would make Enzo happy. They were both in the killing business so either they would have to stay near his town or move to her hometown. "Enzo...I want to quit being an assassin. I no longer have a reason to kill. I want to live a normal life with you.". Mainly lei no longer wanted to put her life in danger. She could see that the two of them had a bright future together. Would he be happy living a normal life with her? She wondered if living a normal life was even possible. She was the only daughter of a rival gang, there was no way her father would simply give her up like that. "Enzo are you happy with your decision?" All she wanted to do was make him happy. He was all that mattered to her.

"I would love to see the country side. I think we should stay here. The country side sounds perfect.". Living out in the country would make her feel more at home. The town of kobe was very small. It was a farming town. But within the inner city it was filled with casinos, small businesses, and whore houses. "I am ready to go.". Lei stood up, held his hand, and began to walk with him.

(no it's fine. I just need to get my words together)


Enzo chuckled seeing how she reacted when she had first gotten her food, "Don't worry about it Lei. I used to have little habits myself whenever I'd eat other places other than home." He said to her then he sighed relaxing himself, "But in all seriousness, I was thinking that we take a look at the pond since the atmosphere is relaxing. Then maybe we can take a look at the countryside to maybe see about making a house out there, unless you'd like to live in your town." He said to her then he smiled at her, "Hard to believe this all started because of a mission."

Enzo smiled at her then he returned her kiss after a minute giving her a kiss on her cheek. Enzo had finished his meal shortly after she finished eating hers, "I'm glad that you enjoyed your meal. This place usually has some of the best food despite being a small place." He said to her then he set the money for the cost of the meal on the table.

When the older man brought the drink to Lei, Enzo looked over to what she had looked at then he sighed, "I guess that we're just a little nervous about today." He said to her then he rubbed the back of his head, "Once we're ready we should take a look at the few real sights that are here."

(Do you need to take a break from this rp? If so let me know. I do not want to, I absolutely love this rp!)

"Is this place any good?" Lei whispered to Enzo. When it came to food she was a little picky. Trusting his judgement lei continued to look over the menu. "I will haaaaaaaave....". There were so many things to choose from sh was having a hard time trying to decide. "I will have what Enzo is having but only half of the portion please.".

She felt a little embarassef for what she said to him earlier. Perhaps it was to soon to say something so serious. After thinking about it for a moment she figured that it was alright$ for once in her life she was one hundred percent sure of something. She loved him with every fiber in her body. Just thinking about it. Made her smile.

Where are we going first? What are we going to look at?" Lei asked question after question until their food arrived. "It smells so good Enzo! I can't wait to try it!". She poked around in it with her chopsticks until she heard Enzo laughing at her. "What? What did I do?". She did not know what was so funny. "Oh!l. She stopped messing around with her food and blushed. "I am sorry...its a bad habit of mine..."

She took the first bite and smiled, "it is so good! Nice choice my love.". She leaned over and gave enzo a kiss on the cheek so she didn't distract him from eating. Lei continued on eating. "I could not eat another bite!". She said in a happy tone. Lei had only eaten about half. She did not eat much.

Her ar slowly snaked around his waste, "I can't wait...to...". Out of the corner of her eye she saw the man that spoke to her at the bath house. One minute the man was there the next he was gone. Lei shook her head and looked at the person who served them the food. "Excuse me...may I get something to drink?". She thought that she was seeing things!. The man brought her a glass of water and handed it to her. After taking a couple sips she felt a little better.

(you don't need to apologize for a short post)

Enzo walked with her stroking her side while they did, "Of course I wouldn't mind showing you. There are quite a few interesting things to see around here." He said to her then he went through to a more private section of the market place seeing much fewer people everywhere than the last place they looked, "But before we go, let's eat a little something. I remembered that we haven't eaten breakfast just yet." He said to her then he kissed her cheek while heading inside of a small restaurant.

Once inside, they could see that the place was as secluded as the special market. An older woman, appearing in her 40s stepped out of a curtain and bowed to them, "Welcome back Enzo. We were wondering why you were absent last night." She said to him when a slightly older man walked out from behind the curtain that the woman left, "Well whatta you know. Looks like our favorite customer got himself a pretty lady with him." He said to Enzo and then he laughed, "So you want the usual, or would there be something special for today?" He asked.

Enzo chuckled then he said to the man, "I'll have one of the usual, but we'll still need a menu for my fiance. She's new around this section of town." He said to the couple then they quickly got the pair seated and set a menu for Lei, "Get whatever you like Lei. It's my treat." He said to her with a smile. On the menu were a variety of different bowl dishes with the name Yoshinoiya on the top of the menu.

He was the one who had done more for her. "I should be thanking you.". Lei blushed. "You have made me very happy and I feel very greatful to have you in my life. Thank you.... Thank you for everything. I..." She pressed her cheek against his and very softly said "I love you.". In to his ear. She felt so nervous saying that to him. It was the first time in her life that she had said it to anyone.

"I would love to look around a little more.". They never got to finish looking around. "Would you mind showing me around? Since this is my new home I would like to know a little more about it."

(Sorry its so short I will make up for it next post)

Enzo heard her comment on the taste then he smirked answering her question when it came up, "Well, mainly by experimenting, but the original recipe was from the local apothecary near by. I did some mild experimenting to decrease the time it takes for the medicine to react. The one thing that I couldn't fix is the taste." He said with a smirk

Enzo tried making his bath quick yet effective. When he was out of the baths, when Lei spotted him, he held her hand then he walked with her giving the man that he saw a moment before a nasty look to keep him away from her. He then looked back at Lei and smiled at her, "So Lei. Any places that you would like to visit before we go ahead and marry?" He asked her with his smile, "I just thought that we could have some fun before we get to the shrine." He said to her then he moved his hand from her hand and wrapped it around her hips, "Thank you for everything Lei, I truly appreciate everything that you've done."

Lei pulled the covers over her head, "Nooooo I want to sleep." She peaked from underneath the covers to take a look at him. For someone who was suffering from a hangover he looked great. "Whatever it is I want it.". Lei wanted the herbal mix that he used to help him with his hangover. After he left to go mix up the herbs she tried to get herself from out of bed. No matter how hard she tried she could not move then a couple inches.

Enzo returned with a cup of the herbal drink she held her her hand out for it. Lei let out a long painful groan when she tried to sit up. "Enzo....". She said softly. She needed help sitting up. enzo assisted her. "Thank you my love.". She pressed her lips against his then began to drin'. She finished it all in one gulp. "OH THAT IS HORRIBLE!". She thought to herself. "Where dod you get this recipe?". It tasted horrible but it worked. With his assistance Lei sat up and got out of bed.

The two traveled to the bath house together. On the way Lei stopped at random shops to look at the things she did not get to look at the day before. "Will you be joining me Enzo?" She asked him as she slipped her hand in to his. It did not hurt to ask. Knowing him he would probably go to the mens side. Lei giggled and kissed and kissed his forehead. "I will see you in a bit my love. Try not to cause to much trouble alright?". It was too early in the day for perverts to be roaming the bath house. In fact there was only a few people inside.

"No geishas, no perverts, this is great!". She said out loud in a happy tone.carefully she lowered herself in to the hot water and relaxed. After laying in the water for a moment she cleansed herself. It felt good to be clean. Lei dressed herself in a fresh kimono, put her hair in an updo then went out front to meet up with Enzo. A man passing by noticed Lei standing out in the front unattended. "Why would somone leave a pretty little thing like you all alone?". He asked her. Lei nervously shook her head, "No. You misunderstand I am waiting waiting for my fiance. We are getting married today.". The man nodded and moved along. What lei did not know was that the man was one of the men sent to spy on her for her father.

"Enzo!". She said happuly. Lei wrapped her arms around Enzo and held on to him tightly. The man looked at Lei one last time and went on his way to tell the others what was going on. "Are you ready? I am so nervous! I can't believe this is really happening.". She kissed him and placed her hand in his. She followed beside him and waited to see where he was taking her.

When Lei fell into his lap he chuckled then he fell down himself a few minutes later after finishing what was left in the bottle with a red blush on his face from the alcohol while he slept the night away.

Once it was the morning, Enzo got up and he rubbed his head getting the effects of a hang over from the night before to see Lei on top of him, "Oh my fuckin' head." He groaned then he got up trying to keep her from waking up while he went went off to the kitchen to get some herbs together to work with the hang over and all of it's effects. Like the sensitivity to light from the sunlight pouring through the window next to the herb vases.

Enzo stayed at the vases for a moment before the herbs took their effect then he went back to the room to see Lei up and awake, "Oh. Hi hun." He said to her rubbing his head, "If you have a hang over I can mix some herbs for you to drink up. May not taste good but it can get rid of a hang over faster than an apothicary's can." He said to her then he rubbed his head, "If you want we can go to the baths and get ourselves washed up at the bath house."

"You're on!" Lei said as she poured him another glass. "Winner gets whatever they want....no questions asked...." Lei drank the Sake like she normally would. Tere was no reason to be ashamed of who she was. She was not a raging alchoholic, but she was not really a sober person either. Lei was right in the middle where she knew when to call it quits. While she was drinking her second glass she coughed. "Bottles? What do you mean bottles?????" She thought to herself. Lei played it off like she meant to cough. "Excuse me. I am not use to the taste." Yeah right! If Lei would have known that the sake was stronger than what she was use too she would have not made any bets. "Ohhhhhhhh Lei you are in for it now!" She thought to herself. Lei cleared her throat and continued to play off the fact that she already knew she was beaten.



"There must be something I can beat him at!" She thought to herself as she poured him another glass. One glass turned in to three and three in to the whole bottle. Whenever Lei opened her mouth to say something it came out backwards. It got to the point where she did not say a damn thing because she did not want him to know. Also it was entertaining to watch Enzo slowly get drunk. "Oh god....." She suddenly said. Lei was already gone before the first bottle was empty. Now they were on the very last bottle. After Enzo finished another drink Lei tried and tried but could not even guide the glass to her mouth. Eventully she put the glass full of Sake down on the ground and gave him a goofy look. "I am...doooooooone *hic*" Lei leaned in to give him a kiss, stopped half way there then passed out in his lap.



Morning came quicker than what Lei wanted it too. The sun shined through the windows and she pulled the covers over eyes. "Uuuuuuuuugh......." Lei rolled over on to her stomach and groaned a little. "At least I didn't get sick!" She tried to make the best out of everything. No matter how hard she tried she could not make herself move. "I will just sleep for a few more minutes. Enzo is not even awake." Lei could not even remember what happened the night before after the first bottle. "I need a bath...." She groaned. Lei smelled like sake. Her body slowly began to twitch. When she finally moved she looked around for Enzo, "Enzo?" He was no where to be found. Even if Enzo was not there she still planned on taking a bath, or at least clean up a little and change.
