Chapter 34: Admiral Troubles

"Wait, you have to what now?" Koby was sitting up in your bed, topless and naked beneath the sheets. You were laying down on your stomach and hummed.

"I have to learn how to play the guitar, and apparently write a song for her and her soon-to-be husband. Haaa..." You sighed and put your face into the pillow and Koby chuckles at you and ran his fingertips over your scarred shoulder causing you to shudder.

"It just means that she loves and trusts you. And wants you to be a part of her traditions."

"Uh huh, she only has three months though until the wedding though."

At that Koby widened his eyes and stared at you which earned another groan from you. Koby then laid next to you, bringing you into his side. He kissed your hair, and nuzzled into you.

"Well...uh good luck?"

"Sentomaru said the same thing. That doesn't help me with my dilema."

"Wouldn't the first step be to actually buy a guitar?"

"Yoru, you're not helping Y/N feel better."

You smiled into your pillow, Koby had been able to hear Yoru from the beginning which you summed up to the fact that Koby was the person you trusted the most. They had a pretty good relationship, the only other person who could hear Yoru was Smoker. He was Yoru's favorite person, which you thought was funny.

"I'll do it in a few days, right now I'm worried about what my next mission will be. I hope I get to stay on ship with everyone here. I'm exhausted being shoved here and there."

One thing that Koby never wanted you to do, was keep anything from him. Especially when it came to things that bothered you or things that irritated you. You told him that he had to complain about one thing every day having to do with his duties, and sometimes he said the same thing twice. The boy couldn't help it, he liked what he did, and he liked helping people. It made you love him even more, but more often than not, he'd beg you to let that little compromise slide.

"You're not." Koby lamented, and he pulled you in closer, breathing in your scent and you became sad. Sometimes being a Marine sucked, having your relationship stay a secret sucked even more.

"Wait how do you know?"

"I am a Captain, and I can request people who I trust to help me out with things that I need. And it just so happens, that I need a very skilled Combat Medic for my next mission. And it was approved just this morning. Hehehe." Koby smiled and you just stared at him wide-eyed before your signature smirk made its way to your face.

"Why Captain Koby, did you use your position of power to get something that you wanted done?"

"Hehehe, I guess this is about as selfish as I can get." He nuzzled you closer and smiled into your hair. Another thing you wanted of Koby was to be more selfish when he wanted something, especially if it was something he wanted of you. He was an incredibly giving person, and he rarely thought about his own needs that didn't include eating and sleeping.

"Well thank you for that. I am truly grateful to be on the same ship as you again."

You pecked a kiss on Koby's chest when Yoru squawked.

"No round two while I am here you guys, just sleep please I am begging you!"

You sighed and Koby gave an awkward laugh at Yoru's whining. He really did have impeccable timing in all things.

Three days later and you were in a music shop, trying to figure out what exactly you wanted to get. You got all the beginner books on music, and basics on guitar. You also got some notebooks and pencils that you thought you would need in order to write a song. You were currently looking at the acoustic guitars and were annoyed at just how many different designs there were. When you'd gotten everything, you headed back to the ship, only to come face to face with Admiral Kizaru.
