Complications

………..ARGH!!!! WRITTERS BLOCK!!!!! That means I’m making this entire chapter up without the aid of my notebooks. A first time for me.

Kanetsugu-……..how are you going to do this?

I have no clue.

Mitsunari- This will not end well.

Shut up! Yes it will! Just get to the reviews!!!!!

TripleMGurl.

Kanetsugu- uh……please don’t hurt us! She’s writing it, see?!

And Xing Xing.

Mitsunari- a bit oblivious, are we? I’m sure Kanetsugu is confused enough for everyone.

Kanetsugu- Hun?

Mitsunari- See. Told you.

Okay, shut up you too. I don’t own samurai warriors. I’m merely borrowing them for my entertainment.

Chapter 3- Epic Confusion


Kanetsugu had stayed by Mitsunari’s side most of the day. The man was hysterical and Kanetsugu could not get the reason out of him. It was obviously something Sakon had said to him, but he wouldn’t say what. When Kanetsugu asked exactly what had been said, Mitsunari would curl into a ball or just start crying again.

It was frustrating, beyond belief.

He had tried prying Mitsunari out of his bed to no success. He had managed to pull Mitsunari from it, accompanied by sheets all of which fell on top of Kanetsugu. Then Before Kanetsugu could do a thing, Mitsunari ran back into his bed with his covers. This was harder than taking care of a two year old.

“Stop sulking, Mitsunari!” Kanetsugu yelled, once again trying to pry the distressed man away from his bed. “You’re the ruler of Japan, for Gods sake!! Get out of bed!!!”

“I don’t want to, Kanetsugu! Let me go!”

“No!! You have meetings to go to!!!” He let go and almost glared at the lump in the sheets. “If you would just tell me what is wrong, I’ll do what I can to make it right!”

“You can’t do anything!” The lump in the sheets yelled.

“I’m sure I can, Mitsunari! Just let me know what is going on!!”

“NO!”

Kanetsugu lost it. “That’s it, Mitsunari! If I can’t get this out of you, then I’ll go to Sakon!”

Mitsunari poked his head out of the covers. Eyes wide and mouth slightly open. “N-no! Don’t do that!”

“Will you tell me then?” Kanetsugu asked while he tried to fix his hair from the previous tumble to the floor.

Mitsunari bit his lip and stared at the floor. Kanetsugu saw that this was getting him nowhere. He fixed his hair into a high pony-tail and brushed his bangs out of his eyes.

“Fine then. I’m going to go talk to Sakon.” He turned to leave.

“NO! Kanetsugu!”

Kanetsugu looked over his shoulder. “You won’t tell me. I’m sure he will. He’s always been an honest guy.”

“I command you not to go to him!!”

Kanetsugu chuckled on his way out. “Not listening, my lord! I’m acting in your best interests.” Kanetsugu left the room even though he could hear Mitsunari still protesting behind the door.

‘At least that should get him up and to his meetings….’

Now….If he were Sakon……where would he be? Maybe he would ask around.

He went into town and scanned the crowd for anyone he knew. He spotted an unmistakably tall man with crazy blonde hair a bit further down.

‘Kejji…..’

He immediately remembered the other night and he blushed a bit. He didn’t really want to confront Kejji right now, especially after what had happened. He knew Kejji must have been really drunk to do such a thing. Last time Kanetsugu knew, Miss Okuni had had a place in Kejji’s heart. In fact that umbrella near Kejji right now was moving. He was with her now. He defiantly didn’t want to go over there and make it awkward for everyone. He didn’t even know if Kejji even remembered….kissing him…

He blushed again.

‘It was nothing. It meant nothing. Kejji is in love with Miss Okuni and not me! Not like I wanted him to be anyway. Although. That kiss was…..ARGH! What am I saying?! I’m not saying this! I’m yelling it in my head! Now I’m yelling at myself! Stop it!’

“Hey, Kanetsugu!”

A hand on his shoulder immediately broke him out of his mental argument. He didn’t even need to look up to know whose hand it was. He visibly stiffened at the touch. Kanetsugu yelped as he was pulled into a one armed hug. Kejji grinned down at him.

“Miss Okuni has come to visit us!”

Okuni stood near Kejji, dressed in a beautiful green kimono and a pink and yellow umbrella slung over her shoulder, gracefully. She saw Kejji hugging Kanetsugu with one arm so she attached herself to the other.

“Hello Lord Kanetsugu. You’re looking handsome, like always.” Kanetsugu could hear the distain in her voice. What was that all about?

Kanetsugu pulled himself free of Kejji’s arm and regained his composer. “Hello, Miss Okuni. You’re as beautiful as ever, as well.”

She grinned and tightened her hold on Kejji’s arm. “Lord Kejji is taking me to the market. He’s going to protect little old me from robbers. Isn’t that right, Lord Kejji?”

Kejji was starring at Kanetsugu but snapped back when he heard his name. “Uh…yea. Sure.”

Okuni shot Kanetsugu a wicked smile before giving Kejji’s arm a tug. “Come on, lord Kejji. Let’s go.”

“Hold on a minute. I want to see what is up with Kanetsugu.” Kejji told her and she pouted. She obviously didn’t like that response.

“I was wondering if you had seen Sakon today.”

Something in Kejji’s eyes flickered and he gave Kanetsugu an accusing stare. “Why?”

Kanetsugu squirmed under his gaze. “Well…..I just need to speak with him. That’s all.

Kejji blinked but held his gaze. Checking Kanetsugu’s face for any sign of fault. “Well…yea. I’ve seen him today. Saw him heading toward the old bridge. You know the one where the cherry blossoms almost cover…. Okuni, stop it!”

Okuni who had been impatiently tugging on his arm, let go in a hurry. She pouted and glared at Kanetsugu.

Kanetsugu smiled uneasily up at him. “Thank you, Kejji.”

Kejji smiled wide and patted Kanetsugu’s head. “No problem little man.” He left his hand there a little longer than necessary. Almost as if he was reluctant to not touch him. Again Okuni placed herself on his arm and tugged. This time, Kejji went with her. She shot a particularly nasty glare in Kanetsugu’s direction before they disappeared from sight.

Kanetsugu felt something strange inside of him. The way she held his arm and flirted so openly with Kejji……it made him….

‘Am I jealous? No….That’s not it.’

No matter how many times Kanetsugu told himself he wasn’t jealous, he didn’t seem to be convincing himself. It was best to put this out of his mind and go talk to Sakon.

True to Kejji’s word, Sakon was on the old bridge, just starring at the water as the cherry blossoms fell into it.

“Sakon…..May I speak with you?”

Sakon looked up and saw Kanetsugu. He smiled pleasantly enough, but Kanetsugu could tell something was wrong.

“Of course, what’s up?”

Kanetsugu stood next to him and looked down into the water as well. “What happened between you and Mitsunari?”

Sakon did not look surprised at the question. “Did he not tell you? He tells you everything.”

“Not this. All I know that it is about you. So I decided to come and ask. Did you reject him or something?”

Sakon looked a bit confused and finally turned his full attention to Kanetsugu.
“Reject him? What on earth are you talking about? We were talking about you.”

“Me?” Kanetsugu looked just as confused now. Mitsunari was supposed to be telling Sakon that he liked him.

“Yes, you. It was about how Mitsunari worships you like a god. He acts like he wants me to be you. I told him that I couldn’t do that. That was about it.”

“I see…..” Kanetsugu was baffled.

“Now, what’s this about rejecting him?”

‘Oh….Crap.’

“Oh it’s nothing….”

“Don’t give me that, Kanetsugu. Tell me what is going on.”

Kanetsugu sighed. “I’m not sure Mitsunari would be too happy with me if I told you.”

“That’s okay. Tell me anyways.”

Kanetsugu saw that he wasn’t getting out of this one. Might as well fess up. “Mitsunari has feelings for you Sakon. He really, really likes you. He confided in me about this a few nights ago. He was going to tell you over tea, but something must have gone terribly wrong. Now he’s sulking like a child.”

Sakon laughed. “When isn’t he sulking?”

Kanetsugu had to laugh also. “That’s true. So…You’re not…grossed out?”

“Why would I be? I think Mitsunari is beautiful. He’s a pain in the ass too, sometimes but I think I’ll be able to manage.”

“Really? That’s great! He’ll be really happy when I tell him.”

“You know what, I’ll tell him myself. Do you know where he is?”

“Hopefully at his meetings. If not, check his room.”

Sakon smiled. A real smile this time. “Thanks man.” Before he could go anywhere, however, Kanetsugu grabbed his arm.

“Before you go Sakon….I want you to know what you’re getting yourself into. Mitsunari is like a baby brother to me. I love him very much. He is a brat and a bit of a spoiled little child. Be good to him. I don’t ever want to comfort him for crying over you again. If you hurt him, the heavens will not save you from me. Understand?”

Sakon blinked a bit. “Yea. I know.”

“Good.” Kanetsugu said and let go of Sakon’s arm. “Now go to him.”

Sakon began to walk away but called over his shoulder, “I never took you as the aggressive type, Kanetsugu! You’ve always been so reserved, like a little woman.”

“Just go!”

He watched Sakon leave, the man’s laughter fading with him. He sure hoped everything worked out okay.

Mitsunari scowled as the last messenger left. He sat uncomfortably in his seat. Was Kanetsugu actually going to go and talk to Sakon? Maybe it was just a threat to get him out of bed. Threat or not, it had worked.

Just as he was about to get up and go back home for the day one more messenger came in. “Lord Ishida. You have one more visitor.”

Mitsunari sulked. He just wanted to go home and curl back up in the sheets. “Fine! Let them in.”

The messenger bowed, showed someone inside then left. Mitsunari’s eyes widened as the figure approached without even bowing. Within seconds, the figure stood next to him, looking down at him.

“S-Sakon?!”

Sakon grinned. “Hey, beautiful.”

Mitsunari instantly blushed. “W-what are you d-doing here?”

“Give it up, Mitsunari. Kanetsugu told me everything.” He sat down next to the startled leader and grinned. “I like you too.”

Before Mitsunari could respond a pair of lips closed over his. He blushed deeper and leaned into the kiss. Sakon’s lips were nice and soft. They ignited a spark within Mitsunari as soon as they touched his.

Sakon pulled away and touched Mitsunari’s auburn hair. “See? That’s all you had to do in the first place.”

Kanetsugu sat at the low table in his room, studying old battle plans. Again. No matter how hard he tried, he could not focus. The thought of Okuni with Kejji made his insides burn with an unknown feeling. There was nothing he could do about this however. He’d just have to live with it.

A knock on his door, caught his attention.

“Come in!” He called. It was most likely Mitsunari.

To his surprise, it was Kejji. Kejji was caring a bunch of Sake bottles and two cups.

“I’m feeling kind of lonely.” Kejji spoke awkwardly. “Would you like to share a drink with me?”

Kanetsugu blinked, extremely confused. Where was Miss Okuni? “Uh…sure.”

Kejji smiled and set the cups down. Within an hour, both men where extremely drunk instead of confused.

“You’re such a light weight, Kanetsugu!”

“I am not!” Kanetsugu slurred and gave Kejji’s arm a playful shove.

Kejji growled and tackled him to the floor. Kanetsugu yelped but laughed after. Kanetsugu’s drunken mind couldn’t even make out how horrible this would look to anyone who could walk in. Kanetsugu was on the floor with his robe hanging off one shoulder and Kejji was on top of him, between his legs. It looked extremely awkward but nether man seemed to mind at the moment.

“You beast…” Kanetsugu laughed.

Kejji however had stopped laughing. He was starring at Kanetsugu beneath him. His pale skin was exposed and his dark hair had come loose from his pony tail.

“You’re beautiful…” Kejji whispered.

Kanetsugu blushed instantly and was now starting to grasp the situation he was in. “Kejji…”

Kejji wasn’t going to let the opportunity slip away. He leaned down and covered Kanetsugu’s mouth with his own. Kanetsugu was shocked at first but soon found himself leaning into him. Kejji supported himself up by his elbow so he wouldn’t crush the smaller man below him. Also leaving one hand to explore the soft skin that lay out before him. His kisses moved down slowly without protest from Kanetsugu. When they touched his neck, Kanetsugu mewled softly and exposed more of his neck for him.

Kejji took it as an open invitation and latched on to the side of his neck. He licked and sucked that spot, marking Kanetsugu as his. All Kanetsugu would do was moan, helplessly. Everything seamed to be going just fine, until Kanetsugu felt something against his leg. Whatever it was it was very big and hard. His mind suddenly clicked and he knew what it was.

Kanetsugu screeched and kneed Kejji in the gut. The bigger man gasped and rolled off Kanetsugu. Kanetsugu gathered his robe back up and crawled into a corner.

“Kanetsugu?” Kejji asked after catching his breath.

“DON’T COME NEAR ME WITH THAT THING!” Kanetsugu yelled pointing at him.

Kejji blinked, confused until he looked down and saw the obvious tent that he was pitching in his pants. He grinned. “Aw, Kanetsugu. He wont hurt you.”

“YES IT WILL!! THAT THING WILL KILL ME!”

Kejji laughed and crawled over to where Kanetsugu was huddled in the corner. He grabbed Kanetsugu’s legs and tried to pry them apart. It did not help that Kanetsugu wasn’t wearing anything under his rope, so when Kejji did get his legs apart, he could see everything. “I know you like me too, Kanetsugu.”

“PLEASE, STOP!” Kanetsugu tried pushing on his shoulders to get him away from between his legs. “WHAT ABOUT MISS OKUNI!?”

“You can stop yelling. I’m right next to you. And what about Okuni. I was just accompanying her to the market.” A sly smile crossed his face. “Where you jealous?”

Kanetsugu blushed deeper if possible. “NO!” he squirmed to get his legs out of Kejji’s grasp.

“All your squirming is just turning me on more.”

Kanetsugu yelped and stiffened. “Please….don’t.”

Kejji frowned and let go of Kanetsugu’s legs. “Okay….What do I need to do?”

“Hun?” Kanetsugu asked bringing his legs close to his body.

“I want to be with you. So, what do I need to do?”

Kanetsugu frowned also. “I don’t know….romantic stuff, I guess.”

Kejji suddenly smiled. “You want me to woo you?” He laughed. Kanetsugu pouted. He was surprised Kejji even knew what the word woo meant. “Don’t pout, Kanetsugu. If that’s what you want then so be it. I’ll woo the pants right off you.” He seamed determined and got up. He gave Kanetsugu a peck on the lips before leaving the room with the sake bottles.

Kanetsugu sighed and uncurled himself from the corner. What are the consequences of what he’d just done?
