Opposites Attract (Maria)

[RYUUJI MARIA]

She'd start to hum a sweet tune something she hadn't done since she was like twelve. Silvia had always done it to cheer her up when she was down in the dumps. Someday she hoped she might have a little girl of her own possibly with Kuro that she could do the same thing with. At his question and feeling him grab her hair gently she would stop looking up at him now. "Cause it made me feel like an old lady." Maria would reply jokingly she had always loved her natural hair color. "I wanted to leave my old life and clan behind so dyeing my hair seemed like the only way to do that." A constant reminder of the sister she had lost and the one that had broken her promise to her. Now of course she was no longer resentful towards Shiva so she wasn't sure why she didn't change it back now she guessed she just had grown accustomed to the color since it was her favorite one after all.

She smiled back at him blushing lightly at the honorific knowing it was a sign of how much he cared for her now. "So sweet of you Kuro-kun." She would say closing her eyes hoping he liked his own honorific given now. She would gladly take his last name when that day came knowing it would signify their eternal love together. Soon they arrived at the valley entrance and thanking him for helping her out of the boat in no time reached her hotel. "It is a little chilly tonight but I'll keep you warm and more tonight." She would say suggestively as she smiled feeling him grab ahold of her waist now. She'd then move to unlock the door and headed inside finding her samurai gear and weapons on her bed still along with her casual outfit. She would move to grab her backpack and stuffed it all into it along with her blouse and panties. "Well that's everything I brought with me Kuro-kun. Let's go shall we?"

[CHIJOUMAE KURO]

Kuro noticed the humming. It was a beautiful tune unfortunately Kuro had never been quite musical. He chuckled at her comment. “I doubt even if you were an old lady you wouldn’t look it.” Kuro could understand her need for independence, but leaving his own clan hadn’t ever crossed his mind. “It must have been a hard decision to leave your clan. It must have taken extreme courage.” He smiled at the honorific she’d given him. “Why thank you my dear.” He blushed at her not so veiled promise. “Uhh I-I-I-I’m looking forward to it.” He said smiling nervously. He nodded. “Sure let’s go.” He made his way to the Chijoumae house. “Welcome to my home my love.” He said waving at the compound.

[RYUUJI MARIA]

Maria would smile sheepishly at his comment rubbing her arms a little together now. "I'd a foxy grandma huh?" She chuckled lightly wondering how he'd respond to that. Her mother was well into her fifities and she still looked pretty great so who was to say if she and Shiva would share in that luck or not. Not that such a thing really mattered to her people got old she knew that and there was no fighting it no matter how hard one tried. "More than you know and it was the biggest mistake I ever made. I can only hope mother will accept me back." Nothing like showing up on her front door like hey i'm back. Having Kuro meet her was going to be a little unpleasant knowing she was a bit of a cougar. She could only hope if Shiva had introduced Roronora to her yet that things had gone normal and smooth.

"Welcome." She would reply with a smile. She'd smile sheepishly as he seemed nervous about another romp with her. "Relax Kuro-kun last time was great and this time will be even better." She would say with a serious smile hoping to give him confidence. She would nod her head in agreement and carrying her backpack in a hand followed alongside him now. Soon enough they arrived at his clan's compound and she had to admit it was rather breathtaking to behold at night. "I hope your sisters will really like me. Maybe for dinner I could cook their favorite meals." She would say and suggest looking at Kuro now a worried smile on her face now.

[CHIJOUMAE KURO]

He chuckled at her. “The hottest grandma this side of Kumo.” He said laughing as well. He loved her since of humor. Kuro knew a woman’s age was one of their biggest worries, and he wanted Maria to know her age meant very little to him. “You made a mistake. I’m sure she’ll take you back with open arms.” He didn’t know her mother, but he made an optimistic guess. It was the best he could do with the information he had. “You’re a very accomplished woman there’s no reason she wouldn’t be proud to have you back.” He chuckled embarrassedly at her comment. “Oh i-i-it’s not that. I’m just a little embarrassed t-t-that you think so highly of me, but it’s not a bad thing. Just I’ve never been praised so highly.” He had honestly forgot about his sisters. “Oh they’ll love you. You brought them sweets simple as that, but how about we make them dinner tomorrow. I’m not quite ready to share you.” He said kissing her neck passionately.

[RYUUJI MARIA]

"Oh you flatterer you." Maria would smile sheepishly rolling her eyes playfully. It was good he had a great sense of humor it really helped her open up more and enjoy herself discovering her own sense of humor in the process. She didn't worry too much about her age right now she was young she should enjoy life right now and not sweat the small things. "I'm sure she will but not after giving me a lecture of some kind." Still she deserved it after running away the way she did. She hadn't bothered to leave a goodbye letter she had just gone. She hated goodbyes and had always avoided them. Saying goodbye meant never seeing someone again and she didn't want to have to face that. "That makes two of us Kuro-kun but you deserve it because you mean everything to me now." Maria would simply reply a smile on her face now. Hearing they would love her did put her more at ease and less nervous as she might have been before. She would smile more moaning gently at the kissing of her neck wrapping her arms around his neck now. "I can meet them in the morning then. Tonight I just want to enjoy the rest of the night together." She would say kissing at his jawline gently a few times. "Would you like something to eat we didn't exactly eat much earlier?" Not that it mattered to her their time had been spent doing something much better. She wasn't that hungry herself but she wanted him to be happy so it couldn't hurt asking.

[CHIJOUMAE KURO]

He chuckled. “Just working with what I’ve got.” He said smiling. Kuro really liked Maria she was funny and passionate what he felt were her best qualities. Kuro wasn’t worried about getting old with age came wisdom he only hoped he could be half as wise as his own father. “It’s what parents do best lecturing.” Kuro really wished that he could get over his studying, but it only happened when he was embarrassed or nervous. His father said his mother had had the same problem as a kid. Maybe he would grow out of it, but he doubted it highly. “You m-m-mean everything to me t-t-too. It seems being around you has sent my stuttering into high g-g-gear.” He enjoyed the feel of her kisses. “I’m just hungry for you Maria. You can satisfy all my needs.” He said walking into the house. He kept ahold of her hand leading her to his room. He put his finger to his lips and pointed at the room down the hall. “That’s my sister’s room they have ears like a cat.” Kuro stalked quietly to his room and slid open the door. His room was decorated with pictures of his greatest moments. There was a picture of him and Bee standing side by side giving each other a fist bump, one where Kuro had become a Genin, and then Chunin and finally Jounin. The final picture was a picture of Kuro his father and his mother. “Well this is my room.”

[RYUUJI MARIA]

"You've got something special then." Maria would reply with a smile on her face now. She liked to believe everyone was special in their own way. For Shiva she felt it was her ability to see the best in people and bringing it out in them. For herself it was being passionate about the things she did and being wiser than her age. "Well mother is a lecturer alright. I got lectured once just for eating with the wrong utensil." Ridiculous to most but her mother it seemed. She was only five but her mother had instilled into her proper etiquette and manners. Still she had been a bit rebellious so she probably deserved most of the lectures she got. "I don't mind your stuttering it's rather cute to me." She would simply reply giving him a soft kiss on the lips before removing her arms from his neck now. She'd smile at his following comment placing a hand on his chest now trailing a finger across it. "I hunger for you too Kuro-san you're simply irresistable." She would reply taking one of his hands to follow him inside now. At the motion of his finger to his lips and the whispered comment she would look down the hallway to the specified room noticing the lights were off they seemed asleep. She would nod and follow him into his room now carefully shutting the door behind them before placing her bag at the end of the bed. She would glance at the pictures briefly smiling at each one before looking around at the rest of his room.

Pretty nice I like it." She'd reach into her backpack now and pulled out some pictures handing them to him. The first was of her, Shiva, and Silvia together she'd barely been ten then her hair white as snow like Shiva's. The second was just before Silvia's passing. She was standing a long a grin on her face as she pointed at her new Chunin headband. The third was during her samurai training when her hair was short like a boy's and recently dyed purple her chest wrapped for training. The final was her graduation from samurai training her hair long and flowing her ample chest apparent as she was handed her twin katanas a serious expression on her face. handing the pictures over she then sat on the edge of his bed feeling the covers now smooth and silky almost like velvet.

[CHIJOUMAE KURO]

Kuro did have a way with words his soft spoken nature combined with his way with words had caused quite the stir at the Kumo hospital. The nurses who hadn’t been scared of him followed him around asking for sonnets, and Haikus. He’d never been lectured for something so small, but he knew that the Ryuujis were a proud clan, and her mother seemed like a stickler for perfection. “I’m sure she just wanted a proper education for you my dear.” He blushed at her compliment. “I’m glad I could be so adorable for you.” He said making his eyes wide with expression. Kuro was glad both he and Maria were skilled Shinobi; otherwise they probably would have never made it past his sisters. He loved the feel of her finger on his chest. “My you’re getting hot. We better get in there before you eat me alive right here in the hall.” He bowed to her. “I’m glad the room is to your liking.” He looked through the pictures she handed him. “Your sister Silvia was a beautiful woman.” He said before handing them back to her on the bed. He placed his hands on hers before going for another kiss.

[RYUUJI MARIA]

Maria had always kept those pictures to remind herself of much she had grown. To remember the lessons she'd learned in life so far. It defined who she was now. It was also a reminder of how close she had been to her sisters once and the bond lost with Shiva that needed to be reformed. "I know she did. I was supposed to become clan head but I reckon that fell to Shiva now. They wont allow a Ryuuji without the marks of maturity to lead." Shiva was the only one who hat gotten hers. Silvia had refused her own not wanting the position herself. Maria had missed out on hers when running away if she returned home she might be able to get them. She smiled sheepishly at his expression poking him on the nose. She chuckled lightly at his following comment as she then had headed into his bedroom handing over her pictures. "I would love whatever your room looked like really." She would reply brushing some hair out of her face now. At his last comment she would look to him and the first picture he was holding on top the group photo. "She truly was and she had a gift for changing people. I think she passed that light onto Shiva when she passed." She would take the pictures handed back placing them on the desk nearby. Then she felt Kuro place his hands on hers and she closed her eyes as she returned the kiss with equal passion fingers curling up as she did.

[CHIJOUMAE KURO]

Pictures held a lot of meaning for people. Kuro knew and understood this. A picture was almost a time portal to a time with happy emotions for a time when you felt sad or to remind you just how far you’ve gone. He listened to Maria’s response, and nodded. He had gone through some of the same things being his father’s heir. “I know what you mean. Parent’s want to give them their children the world, so to prepare them for that they weigh you down with training to accept the world’s weight. Sometimes though what you want is slightly lighter.” Kuro had noticed the marks that Shiva had possessed and had just guessed that Maria had refused them. “I see.” He blushed Kuro had always been organized, but it was good to know even if he wasn’t Maria would still like him. Kuro enjoyed the passionate kiss, and shook his head, once they broke apart. “Stop selling yourself short Maria. You’ve had quite the change on me.” He said kissing her shoulder, and then her hand. Stroked her stomach feeling the scar rub against his palm he bent down to kiss her naval. “To think I was so close to losing you, before we’d even met.”

[RYUUJI MARIA]

Maria had used to wonder why she held onto the photo with Silvia in it. It'd only brought her sadness and anger back then. It still brought her sadness to look at them but it also made her want to better herself. To live up to the expectations Silvia had once had of her to carry on that same light she had. "I never wanted to be clan head to be honest I suppose that's why I fought against her so many time. Now though if given the chance I would take it I think." She felt she was more mature and suited for it now. Shiva had refused the title to focus more on INTEL. If given the chance to earn her marks of maturity and the title she would happily take it and with Kuro in her life now it would finally be complete. "Okay i'll try and just know you've had an equal effect of change on me too." She would smile moaning gently at the kiss to her shoulder. She'd continue to smile as he kissed her hand and then her stomach where her smaller scar lay. "Never knowing of a love that could be. Would you miss me deeply if I were to die tomorrow?" She would say and ask running a hand through his hair now. She knew she would miss him greatly if he ever died after tonight. She felt drawn to him more than any other guy she had been with before. When they were initimate like before it felt like they had become one souls intertwined they were simply perfect for each other.

[CHIJOUMAE KURO]

Kuro nodded it had been his dream to take over for his father. He knew his lessons would make him a great leader for the Chijoumae, and Kumo. Bee said he knew that Kuro would succeed him, and that had been just the kick he needed. Kuro loved to hear her moan and know it was he she did it for. “Well I’m glad we’ve had such a great effect on each other.” He nibbled her stomach feeling her fingers in his hair. He looked at her in earnest. “I would miss you more than words could ever express.” He said before rising up to take her hand and place it on his chest. “My heart only beats for you. My strength may belong to the Raikage and Kumo, but my life is yours.” He said before grabbing ahold of her shorts and pulling. “Let me show through actions how much I love you.” He said before kissing her passionately, and stroking her bust.

[RYUUJI MARIA]

"I'll never be the same you've corrupted me Kuro-kun." She'd reply with a sheepish smile on her face now gasping lightly as he nibbled her stomach a little. He'd left his mark on her today in more ways than one. Like a fresh scar on her heart he would always have a place in her heart and mind so long as they were together. "I love you Kuro-kun. If I-I lost you I don't know what I would do with myself." She couldn't take losing another person she loved again. Losing Silvia had been too painful and had taken years to accept and get over losing him would be even worse since they seemed perfect for each other. She might live on for Shiva's sake but she would never be the same. She would smile feeling his hand with her hand feeling his heartbeat now. "And mine belongs to you. My life and strength is yours so long as you want it." She'd smile and feeling him pull her shorts down moved her hands to help him a little quicker. "I can't wait." She would simply reply smiling still. She'd return the kiss just as passionately hands on his back now clawing gently as she rubbed it with them now.
