Blooming Romance

Primrose leaned on the balcony, watching Holly and Fire spar. She noticed that an eighteen year old boy was watching them on the sidelines.

He had red hair and a scar over his eye. Primrose gazed at him for a few moments and her cheeks warmed up, turning red.

"That's Saizo," Sakura spoke up, startling Primrose and she looked at her, "he's a ninja. He has a brother named Kaze."

"I see," Primrose said with a soft smile and she looked back at Saizo. Her cheeks turned red when he looked at her and gave a small wave.

She waved back at him shyly. Sakura snickered and placed her hand on Primrose's shoulder, "if you have a crush on him, go talk to him."

Primrose blushed furiously, "I-I-I didn't say that I had a crush on him." "Well what're you staring at each other for?" Ember asked curiously as she walked over to them.

Sakura smirked mischievously at Primrose who blushed more. Ember giggled. "Stop laughing and help me!" Primrose squeaked, embarrassed.

"What's going on?" The three girls turned to see Day.

"Primrose has a crush on Saizo," Ember said. Primrose squeaked loudly, her wolf ears and tail showing, "I didn't say that! H-he's really cute but I'm not sure of my feelings yet."

"Well how do you know?" Stardust asked curiously as she and Moonlight climbed down from the roof. Primrose blushed and she covered her cheeks, her tail wagging.

Day chuckled softly and ruffled Primrose's head, making her squeak and giggle. Stardust giggled as Moonlight chuckled in amusement.

Sakura snickered and her stomach grumbled. So did Primrose's. "You hungry?" Day asked. Primrose blushed as she smiled sheepishly and nodded, Sakura nodded too.

"The maids are preparing dinner," Day said, "tell the boys to come inside." Ember nodded.

The moon and stars soon arrived as Day and the others came to the dining room. Night sniffs the air and he smiles in delight, "something smells absolutely delicious."

Holly giggled, "yeah." "The maids made us some pretty delicious food," Slayer chuckled softly. Everyone took their seats.

The maids brought out the food. It was chicken noodle soup. Primrose smiled softly and she couldn't help but feel nostalgic. Her mother would always cook this when she was younger.

Holding back a flinch at the memory, she started to eat. So did the others. Saizo glanced at her shyly as he ate. His cheeks turned pink and he smiled softly.

After dinner, Primrose, Day and Slayer cleaned up. Primrose hummed softly. After that, everyone went to their bedrooms.

Primrose sat on the windowsill, dressed in her silver nightgown. She gazed at the starlit sky solemnly and closed her eyes.

There was a light knock and she looked at the door. "Who is it?" She asked.

"It's me, Lady Rose," Saizo said from behind the door. Primrose blinked in surprise before she got up and walked over to open the door.

"Hi," she said with a soft smile. "Hello," Saizo said with a soft smile, "mind if I come in?"

"Sure," Primrose said, letting him into the room. Saizo walked over and sat on the chair. Primrose walked over to the bed.

"Were you about to go to sleep?" Saizo asked. "No," Primrose said, shaking her head, "I couldn't sleep."

Saizo sat beside her and she looked up at him. She stroked his face and looked at his blind eye. "How did that happen?" She asked, her eyes softening.

"In battle," Saizo said, "my enemy scarred me now I can't see in this eye." "I'm sorry," Primrose said sincerely, "if I could heal it, I would."

Saizo smiled softly and he gazed at her. She gazed back at him and slowly leaned in. Saizo closed his eye and his lips met Primrose's.

Primrose gently wrapped her arms around his neck, deepening the kiss a little. Saizo wraps his arms around her waist.

He smiled softly at her and she smiled back. "Can... can you stay?" She asked, "please."

"Of course," Saizo said gently and the two laid back. Saizo covered Primrose up with a blanket and he chuckled softly as she snuggled up to him.

Saizo held her close and slowly fell asleep. Primrose fell asleep.

OoOoOoOoOoOo

Tiger Lily stood in the throne room, sitting on the chair, her finger tapping the armrest. Her daughters stood by the throne, staying silent.

She shifted her gaze upwards as the doors opened. A man came in, donning a white cloak that was decorated with white fur. He had pale skin and dark brown eyes even though it was hidden by the hood of his cloak.

"Hello... Lucifer," Tiger Lily said calmly. "Your highness," Lucifer said, going down on knee, "you summoned me?"

"I did," Tiger Lily said before she snapped her fingers and a maid came up to Lucifer, holding a small chest that had a white rose.

"I want you to bring my daughter home," Tiger Lily said, "and eradicate all that stand in your way."

"Yes ma'am," Lucifer said darkly before he stood to his feet, picked up the rose and walked out of the throne room.

Moonrise narrowed her eyes coldly at Lucifer's back as she stayed silent.

Outside of the castle, near the gates, Lucifer mounted his horse. He put the rose up to his nose and deeply inhaled. His eyes turned red and a low growl rose in his chest.

"What are we looking for this time, old friend?" Another man asked. This man had light brown hair and peachy skin. He had bright green eyes and a scar on his chest though it was covered by his dark blue armor.

"We are finding the Soulless Rose," Lucifer said  with a dark chuckle before he pulled the reins on his horse and he and the other man took off on their horses.

The rose laid on the ground as if it had been untouched for a moment. A dark figure walked up to the rose and picked it up. The figure was wearing a dark black cloak decorated with black feathers. The figure wore a black wolf mask that had emerald green symmetrical swirls under the eyes and there was white claw marks painted on the cheeks.

The figure touched the petals with a clawed finger and the rose burnt to ashes before the figure disappeared out of sight.
