Chapter 27: Me, Jealous Of You? Bless Your Delusional Heart (END)

Obi POV

A soft smile crosses my face as I look out across the grounds of Wistal Castle. There's a woman coming up from the main gates with Mitsuhide beside her. I can hear her angelic laughter on the warm breeze. I slip down from the top of the tree I'd been previously napping in and walk out to join them. She smiles as her deep blue eyes fall on me.

"Hello there Mr. Obi, it's nice to see you again."

"Hello again Miss Imrei, you are a lovely sight for sore eyes if I say so myself." I smirk as I take her hand and kiss it.

"You two and your sarcastic lovey dovey greetings are going to make me sick already." Mitsuhide groans.

"Fine, if you believe you're going to be ill, then I believe I'll relieve you from your post and escort Imrei the rest of the way."

Imrei still left with Prince Izana two days after she confronted Mitsuhide, Master, and myself. She's been gone for two months now and it's definitely been different without her around. The kickbacks aren't the same, there's no music filling the air. It's been so strange not having her here but she and I still spoke through letters and we occasionally crossed paths on our jobs. We really have tried to start over, just with experience now. We're really trying to get to know each other and try things at our own pace, without the forced marriage and schemes. It's been working wonderfully.

"So, how long are you here for?" I ask as I lace my fingers through hers.

"Two days, then I have to return. Is there anything fun to do while I'm here?"

Cheerful violin music fills the air as Imrei plays with Errie, the girl who took over her position as Chief Musician when she left. After her injury healed, she was slowly able to play again and from what she tells me only has minor difficulties. The song ends and our group cheers and Imrei abandons her post as Errie starts playing again. I get to my feet and meet her in the middle, handing her a bottle before taking her other hand and twirling her around. She laughs and holds onto me to keep her balance so I draw her close and she rests her head on my shoulder.

"It's nice to have you back." I mumble as I press a kiss to her head.

"It's nice to be back."

"Are you sure you don't want to come back to Wistal Castle?"

"I miss being here with you all and the kickbacks, but I'm doing great working with Izana and it's more peaceful out there. It's like a new beginning. Maybe someday."

"If not, it'll still be okay. I'm just glad I got a second chance to make things right. Thank you for giving me that chance."

She lifts her head to look up at me and my eyes widen slightly as she kisses me. I weave one hand through her hair and pull her closer as my eyes drift closed. I smile into the kiss as I hear cheers erupt around us.

"Get it Obi! Finally a real kiss from the lovebirds! Taren, you owe me fifty!" Garak slurs.

As we part, I steal another few short kisses from her and she smiles.

"Obi?"

"Yes Imrei?"

"I think I accidentally fell in love with you somewhere along all of the chaos."

"Good because I fell in love with you a long time ago."
