WEDDING SHOPPING! (P/Neo)

It had been a week since Neo had asked Akira to marry him. It had been a week since Akira had said that she would. It had been a week of anticipation and wonder. It had been a week of pure love and joy. Akira had never remembered a time where she was ever so happy. Actually, she couldn't remember a time where she was happy ever, until Neo that is. He brought her hope. He saw her beauty when everyone else saw nothing but a monster. He made her giggle for the first time. He pulled out her smile. He brought her new experiences and he believed in her. Then, there was something else. Something Akira hadn't spoken a word of yet.

On this very morning just as the sun had begun to peek over the horizon, Akira found herself in the bathroom. The poor girl had woken up with an odd feeling in her stomach and ended up getting sick. She had really hoped she didn't disturb Neo, since they had been in the same bed. She also hoped that what she was feeling wasn't an illness of some sort that would be terrible. They were supposed to go shopping today, which was the whole reason they stayed in Sunagakure that night. Akira wanted Neo to see her village. She wanted him to hopefully see why she loved it and the people so much. She wanted him to see where she had grown, except she would try to leave out as much history as possible. However if he were to ask, she would most certainly tell him.

It seemed that after a little while of feeling this sickness it has begun to pass, which Akira found strange. What was it? A sickness didn't work like that unless it was... No. It couldn't have been... but it could. Was Akira experiencing... morning sickness? Should she tell Neo? No. What if she really wasn't? Normally, morning sickness didn't happen until the second week. Then again, you could never tell with a pregnancy. She decided not to tell him Until she knew for sure. She just hoped that he wasn't awake while she was gone. A few moments later, Akira had crawled back into bed and fell asleep.

When she awoke again, Akira took a moment to stretch and then layed over Neo sideways. She would then begin to poke him on his head, "Oh my Dearest Sleepy head... it's time to wake up." Any other day the woman would have let him sleep but today she was excited. Today, they were going Wedding Shopping!

"Mhhhhmmm oh....Akira....g'morning...." smiled Neo as he opened his eyes. He let out a soft yawn. He then turned over to Akira and wrapped his arms around her and brought her close. He touch the tip on his nose on her nose and smiled. He then kissed her on the forehead and got up. His lean muscular body flexed as he stretched to wake his sleepy body up. He cracked his neck, and shifted his shoulders. His metallic bones would grind, and the metal bolts of his neck would spark. His drive woukd whir and hum softly as Neo reactivated some of his prosthetic organs from thier hibernation. As soon as Neo verified his vitals signs where functioning properly he got up and walked over to Akira. He then knelt in front of her and looked up to her face to meet her beautiful eyes.

"I'm going to go take a shower and get ready.....theres another shower in the other room so you can get ready too.....well unless you want to shower with me....hahaha just kidding, lets save that for the honeymoon " Neo smiled and chuckled as he joked with her. His black hair would poof up due to his bedhead, it was an odd pair of two strands of his hair that stood up. It was like he had little antennas. Neo then got up fro..his kneeling position and headed off to the bathroom..he winked and blew her a kiss before proceeding inside.

Neo quickly took a shower. He then picked out his normal attire. A black suit and tie with a white dress shirt. He combed his black hair and with much effort, was able to subdue the pesky strands of hair that refused to cooperate. He buttoned up his shirt which had ironed late at night while Akira slept. He then put his pants on and tucked in the shirt. He neatly tied the tie around his neck and put on his black blazer. He then put a fedora on his head and strapped his signature gas mask on to his face. He looked at himself in the mirror and a puff of steam poofed out of his masks as he admired his neatness and clean attire. He then proceeded to the living room waiting for Akria.

The first thing Neo would do when he awoke was smile. It filled Akira's heart with joy at the sight. She loved knowing that she could make him smile even just by being there. He would roll over and pull her close touching his nose to hers. It made the girl giggle a little. Akira would feel his lips press to her forehead before he got out of the bed. She couldn't help but smile that very morning. Neo always made her feel so happy wether it be the thought of him or being around him. Purple eyes would watch as her love woke himself up more and got ready to begin the day. The woman would sit up as he moved her way and would stare straight back into his eyes as he stared into hers.

Akira would giggle again as Neo spoke to her. He really was something else. He was somewhat unpredictable to her. As she looked at him, she would notice his hair. It was quite fluffy and there were some strands that stuck out. It made her want to laugh but she wouldnt. She was sure her hair was probably tangled and frizzy in a way. Soon enough, Neo had taken off toward the shower. He would blow her a kiss and wink at her before disappearing into a bathroom. Of course, soon after Akira would do the same thing.

The female had gone to the other room as Neo had told her about to shower. Her shower didn't take all that long. She would step out and dry off. She would put on her underclothes before standing in front of a mirror. Her hair was wet but she had dried it to the point where it wouldnt drip. However, that's not exactly what Akira was paying attention to. Purple eyes looked at her stomach through the refelction in the mirror. What if there really was something in there? What would it be? Would she really be a good mother? The woman would stand for a moment staring, lost in her own head. Then, she would begin moving again. The woman would throw on her back sundress that she had picked out for this very day. It held a light layer of ruffles at the bottom with a bit of sparkle. She had simple black flatts to go along with it. She would dry her hair and brush it out. It looked rather shiney and straight, which only added to her joyous day. If Akira was to be doing wedding shopping, she wanted to feel her best. She wanted to look presentable.

Akira would smile at herself in the mirro before she would realize something. Neo was probably waiting for her! The woman would quickly make her way out of the bathroom and find her way to the living room where she would find Neo waiting, as she had thought. A sweet smile would spread across her features as she looked at him, "Handsome as always."

Neo gave Akira a soft smile, he was sitting on a sofa his legs crossed as he was reading a book written in some ancient and unknown language. He put the book aside, and the pages immediately bound together only to be opened by Neo's touch. He got up and straighten his suit and went over to Akira. He looked at her from top down to her toes. He couldn't help but smile from underneath his mask, Akira of course wouldn't be able to see the sweet smile but a small sparkle could be seen in his eyes.

"You look beautiful." Neo said in a ever so calm and collected voice. He then hooked his arm around hers and led her towards the door. "shall we get going?" inquired Neo as he opned the door for his fiance. A soft gust of wind entered the humble house.

A small air ship no bigger than the house landed on the grassy open plain. It was beautifully decorated with silver and what seemed to be like gold. It's entire hull was made out of a beautiful smooth wood made out of the sacred oak trees from Necro wonderlands sleeping forest. The sails, and its wings spread out to the skies, as if like a set of open arms awaiting Akira for a warm embrace. The air ship settled down, as its soft humming engine began to grow silent and go to a shallow sleep. A set of stairs, began unfolding down to present itself at Akira's feet. Gold railings would spiral down as soon as the stairs presented itself. the gold railing had a warm glow as if beckoning Akira's finger tips to touch them.

"Well, lets get on." smiled Neo as he awaited Akiras response.

Akira would become amazed at the sight of Neo's book bounding itself together. She hadn't ever seen any book do such a thing before not even one in Wonderland. She wondered how such things worked. She was quite the curious one. Always wondering. Always exploring. Always learning. However, the curiosity left her head as Neo made his way to her. After he had looked her over, Akira looked to his eyes for any sort of reaction, considering it was the only feature she could see behind his mask. She could tell he was happy. The look in his eyes told her so. This would make her smile in return, even if she couldn't see his.

When he complimented her, the woman couldn't help but blush. She didn't understand why she was blushing but his compliments made her so happy. She figured it had to do with that. He would lead her towards the door and open it allowing her to exit first. Neo was quite the gentlemen towards her. Akira would tuck her hair on the left side of her head behind her ear as the gust of wind had come through the door.

As Akira looked up, she would notice the flying... thing. Her eyes would widen. She stood in awe at its beauty but also in fear. The demon had no idea what this contraption could do. She had no idea what it would be like. It was supposedly a mode of transportation but she didn't know if she could handle such a thing. It seemed safe and looked pretty. The woman was torn between being afraid or not. As Neo spoke to her, Akira would look to him with concern in her eyes. She was more afraid than not, which was rather odd for this woman. Then again, she believed herself to be pregnant. There were many new fears that came with a new child, if this were the case. Would getting on this thing be alright?

Neo smiled and assured her it was totally safe. "It's safe. I swear....I built it with my own two hands." Neo chuckled as he took his fiancees hand and guided her up the steps. He made sure not to go too fast, but at a pace where she was comfortable in. He made sure to make her feel safe by never letting go of her hand. He constantly reassured her that he was by her side and that everything was alright. As soon as they boarded the stairs neatly folded and the ship slowly ascended up into the air. As the ship gained altitude the air grew chilly, Neo simply gave Akira his jacket to make sure she was warm. The ship moved at a steady rate as it flew across the sky. Bellow them was wonderland, soon they passed the out skirts and flew over various landscapes and scenery till they neared Akira's village of sand. The ship descended down back to the earth bellow, it settled softly so that it would not disturb the villagers. "Where here. Wanna show me around, I'd love to meet your people." Neo smiled sweetly as he awaited her sweet words.

Akira would stare at the beautiful ship as Neo spoke to her about her assured safety. Although she trusted him wholeheartedly, she couldn't help but feel that anything could happen. Besides, she had never been at such heights before. However as long as Neo was holding her hand, Akira would slowly make her way onto the airship. The woman would try to keep her breathing slow and steady, until they had reached the top of the stairs. At this point, the stairs would fold and Akira would grip Neo's hand tighter. Purple eyes would dart all around, until she remembered she needed to stay calm. She needed not to stress. If she were pregnant, it would be highly unhealthy for the baby and herself. So, Akira would remain close to Neo the whole time the couple was in the air, which would keep her calmer than it would if she were alone.

Neo would give the woman his jacket making her smile at how sweet he was, since the air was relatively colder. Every once in a while, Akira would glance over the side of the ship only to back away and simply look out over the horizon. This would continue all the up until the duo made it to her home village. The ship would land outside of the village walls and Akira woukd hurriedly remove herself from the vessel, after kicking off her shoes. As Neo spoke to her, Akira would smile back with the excitement of a child. "Well, Mr. Stigma," Akira would say with a giggle, "Let me formally introduce you. I am Akira the Mother of this wonderful, sand kingdom. Let me tell you, honored guest, you are in for quite a treat." The demon would gesture for Neo to follow her through the gates of the village she held so dear.

As soon as the duo would enter, a group if curious children would run up to the woman. "Welcome Back, Momma!" A loud, little girl would shout. "Yeah! Welcome Back! Hey, did you come in the thing we saw?! Was it cool?!" An energetic boy would quickly ask the demon. However, what would catch the attention of the woman was a small girl tugging her dress. Akira would bend down next to her and the girl would stand on her toes to whisper to the woman, "Who's that man right there?" Akira would giggle at all of the children. She lived them all so and couldn't help but feel such amazing joy in speaking with them.

"Well, let's see if I can get it right. Thank you all for being here for my return. I appreciate it. That thing you saw.. I did come in it. It was very cool. I'm sure you'd love it,"Akira would smile at the boy before feeling another tug at her dress from the same shy girl, "Oh right. Sorry. This man here.. this is my fiance. His name is Neo." The children would look from Akira to Neo before asking, "What's a fiance?" Akira would giggle and say quite simply, "It means we're planning to get married but aren't yet. Today... I'm going shopping for my pretty, wedding dress!" With those words, all the girls eyes would light up before the shy child would speak in a whisper,"But.. you already have a pretty dress. This one." Akira would smile before petting the girl's head, "Thank You but it has to be a very, very pretty one." Soon, all of the children were bouncing around and being excited. Soon enough, they would all run up to Neo to introduce themselves.

After a while of the children talking, Akira would grab Neo's hand and drag him along, "Time for us to go, kids. I'll try to play with you later, ok?" With a collective "aw", the children would run into the village yelling and screaming about the two. Eventually, their voices would fade and Akira would sigh sadly, "Those would be the children from our orphanage. I try to visit them as much as possible. They're amazing kids with great potential. Not all of them will get to become Ninja but they'll definitely get to do other beautiful things." The woman would smile as she thought about it. Then she would shake her head, "I am so sorry. I didn't even ask you if you were ok with that. I should have.. uhm.. is there anything you'd like to do before dress shopping? We have amazing food. I can show you my office.. or we can just walk and I can be like your tour guide.. Uhm.. I'm sorry. I've never actually brought anyone here. You're honestly the first. I've never had friends or.. anyone.."
