Prince Of Strength~Masrur Fanfic

Chapter 3 ~ Preparations and Celebration

I woke up the next morning with a large stretch before feeling a edging pain in my lower back. Remembering what happened the previous night I turned to the sleeping red haired man beside me. Lightly sighing, I took in his masculine features before getting up and scrounging around for something that might fit me. But there was nothing in sight, looking up I noticed a closet. In hopes of finding something in there I opened it walking in.

The noise of the door being flung open startled me so I peered out the door. "Masrur, I hope you are up!" Sinbad's voice rang as the red head slowly awoke from his deep sleep. Rubbing his head he glared daggers at the overly eager man. "Some of the Princess's men gave me these clothes for her, just in case she would like to change." He grinned looking around the room. "Now where is that cutie?"

Masrur got up, still nude, growling at him lowly. "Woah man, put some clothes on!" Sinbad exclaimed covering his eyes, his face a bright red. "Wait~ If you are naked, does that mean-"

-Glare-

Sinbad shut his mouth quickly as Masrur shot him a whole hearted death glare. "Anyway, I will leave these clothes right here. By the way, we are going to have a party before you leave in your honor!" He sang before dashing out of the room. I came out with a soft giggle as Masrur let out a frustrated sigh, pinching the bridge of his nose. Picking up the clothes, I quickly slipped them on before making my way to him and planting a firm kiss on his lips. "Are you sure you want to leave tonight?"

"Of course." He mumbled giving me a kiss back before readying himself to go to his friends.

We made our way to the meet up point where is friends had already made a banquet for him. "Do they party like this all the time?" I asked, amazed by the lay out of food and decorations. "Yes." He simply replied as they all cheered. "Its not even the evening yet!" I yelled glowing at all of the bright and colorful things. "That is Sinbad for you." He sighed as we were drug into the middle of the crowd.

Airavata and Ariyday waited for me by the end of the table, both with their arms crossed. "There you are mistress!" Ariyday rushed over picking me up in a tight hug , squishing me against his soft blonde mane. "Okay, okay let me go!" I laughed as he gently put me down. "Needless to say, he was worried." Airavata chuckled giving me a wink. "You are one to talk, he stood up all night pacing like 'Does she have a new pair of clothes, is she going to sleep alright, will she be safe.' blah blah blah!" Ariyday mocked as Airavata blushed intensely before splashing water on him. "I did not!"

I giggled as the two began to bicker remembering that they were still children at heart even thought they tried to act so adult. "Come on you two enjoy the party." I smiled, pushing them both into the crowd. "B-but, I am not very sociable!" Airavata cried trying to escape my push in a futile attempt before bumping into someone. "Oh excuse me miss, I am ver-Oh hi!"

"Ah you must be the Water Mage that is visiting, nice to meet another with high potential. My name is Yamuraiha." She introduced with a hand held out, he took it with a heavy blush. "Sorry my name is Airavata, are those mana infused!" He exclaimed pointing at the shells on her ears. "Oh yes, are those real?" She asked pointing at his fin like gear. "Yes, they are of my own making." "Mine too!" She laughed as they quickly hit it off.

"This is a pretty nice party." I smiled lightly as I sat down beside Masrur. "Yeah, but I don't know if I am ready to leave." He admitted, taking a strong sip of his drink. "Why is that?" Glancing at me before shrugging lightly he took another swig of his drink. "Maybe I am not as strong as you think." I frowned deeply before curling my arms around him tightly. "You are a winner in my heart."

"And if I don't win the tournament?"

"Then I will live here with you." I grinned. "I ran away once, can always do it again." He rolled his eyes before ruffling my hair. "Just promise you will never run away from me." He mumbled under his breath.
