The Summoner And The Ninja

Chapter 2

During that same day she arrived, the night time came immediately. After dinner he escorted her to her chambers in the same hall as his.

"Wow I can't believe how much Eblan changed, I mean it's amazing how you restored this kingdom back to its feet!" She beamed. "Who are you and what did you do to the annoying child named Edge?"

"I did nothing to that awesome good looking ninja you speak of darling, your looking at him." He cockly responded.

"Well then good job Edward, you certainly surprised me, to be honest I was expecting your advisors to be on your tail, wacking you up to being the responsible mature king that the people are expecting you to be." She sharply responded.

"Oh that doesn't happen as much as it did in the beginning sweetheart, as you can see not only am I ruling an entire kingdom by myself without a queen, but I am still the best ninja in all of Eblan honey." He gleamed.

"Well maybe if you stop hitting and running pretty women you see will you finally find a queen that will stick around." Rydia said.

Ouch he thought. That actually offended me. Sure I was "playboy" back then and sure I never cared about young girls feelings - only yearned for what they had to physically offer. But that all changed when my eyes locked into his emerald. I mean I know what to say and do to a girl to make her crazy for me. Cause not only am I attractive with my good looks, but I am a wealthy only child prince. My title is enough to make any girl not hesitate to fall into my hands. But her, Rydia resisted my title and my charm. All my smooth moves and romantic words that is highly effective to any girl, failed. Never have a met a girl who ignored me, walk away from me, dismissed me... Never. At first that shocked me and then I accepted this challenge to make her want me. Clearly my motives and actions only made her mad and feisty (especially dangerous) at me. But that only made me more excited and pumped. No matter all the firaga,flare, or bahamuts spells she threw at me, only boosted my ego. She was and is the only girl I think about. All these normal girls didn't mean anything to me in fact I never wanted to do any physical things to those girls anymore. All I want is to win her over and show her that I care for her. I even am welling to take damage for her in battle and use up all my potions for her well being. And now she still doesn't take me seriously that I've changed am no longer a playboy. I care for her but whenever I say nice things or complement her, she throws it away and laughs. Even now she mentions my regretful past of girls. It hurts.
And of course I quickly change the subject.

"Well this is your room, please make yourself comfortable and if you need anything my room is down the hall." He quietly said.

As he was turning to walk away, she grabbed his right shoulder "Wait!" She yelled. "Please don't go, am sorry for what I said, that was wrong for me to say. Stay." She then looked into his eyes with hers. He was shocked. Was she really apologizing?

It was very rare for her to. He looks at her- damn her eyes is drawing him in. He looks at her gorgeous blue eyes. They are so addicting, pulling him in, he cannot fight back. "Okay I'll stay." He spoke. Anything for her.

"Really! Thank you so much!" She twirled. "I wanted to speak to you so much."

She did? Rydia the smart mouth beauty, is happy for him staying. He was glad, also shocked coming from the same summoner who constantly said he was annoying and always told him to go and bug someone else.

"Am happy you finally admitted that you love to talk to me sweetcheeks. I mean I don't blame you, if I were you I will want to talk to such a handsome ninja too."

"Oh yes the day has finally come huh?" She sarcastically coughed.

"Anyways" the young king said. "How are you. Do you enjoy living with monsters in a cave and swimming in lava, battling it out with random encounters of trolls?

"Oh yes that is the life style." She spoke. "Actually what I did most of the time was watching over the young creatures and learning more about magic and summoning from the king and queen." "In my time away I was starting to miss Rosa and the others. So I decided to go and visit." Said Rydia.

"Oh did you now, so how was your visit to Baron?" Edge spoke. "Did you gossip away with Rosa and steal her away from Cecil?" He laughed.

"Actually no, I didn't go to Baron yet, I heard that they were at Kapio to meet with Edward to talk about trade and an official political treaty." She said.

"Am glad I was the one in your heart that you wanted to see so badly gorgeous. Ah I can get used to being your number one." He sang.

"In your dreams your majesty. Keep dreaming that you'll be the first one in my heart that I want to visit first." She defensively said.

"Oh am in your heart? Ahh this is a dream I never want to wake up from." The young ninja replied.

"You're desperate for anything are you."

"Yes, yes I am. I'll take anything sweetheart." He joked.

"What ever you say ninja, anyways I think it's time for bed." She spoke.

"Very well my lady, I wish nothing but the sweetest dreams for you." With that said he looked at her. Her image shined with the moonlight on her. Gods. She is so beautiful. He stood there, right in front of her, staring.

Until she said,"I know you missed me but honestly keep your mouth up." She joked.

"OK OK you caught me, but can you blame me? You didn't change at all." He spoke. "Your the most beautiful person I ever laid eyes on." He grabbed her right cheek, and carefully kissed her delicate, soft, milky skin. She froze, shocked with the soft kiss that Edge left on her cheek. She stared at him. He is so handsome, she thought, his strong features and crazy cool hair is addicting. Of course she didn't plan on telling him. That would only feel his ego.

"Good night Rydia." He said as he was walking to leave the room.

She paused and said "Good night Edge." She smiled.
