____________________________________________________
After telling Skuld that nothing really happened
between her sister and him, Guardian followed
Keiichi to his workshop/garage. As he watched him
work on his motorcycle, one single thought kept
nagging him. "Um...Keiichi, do you mind if I ask
you a personal question? It's about your and
Belldandy's relationship" Guardian asked. Turning
red lightly, Keiichi answered nervously "w-what
is your question?" "I know that you deeply love
her, and that your nervous about that. But when
are you going to ask her?" Guardian asked curious,
"Ask her what Guardian?" Keiichi stated confused.
Shaking his head, Guardian thought *Keiichi can't be
this bad can he?*. "About this" he answered tapping
his ring finger. "Oh" Keiichi said turning a deep red,
"Truthfully what is keeping you from asking her? Don't
worry this is just between us guys ok?" Guardian stated
when he noticed how embarrassed he made him. "I wanted
to get my self set, so that we can live better then we
are now" Keiichi replied. "Not to be rude or anything
but WAKE UP!! Do you really think trivial matters like
that are important to her? All she cares about is being
with you, THAT is all that matters to her" Guardian spoke
slightly annoyed. Keiichi blinked at Guardian's reaction,
sighing slightly Guardian spoke "I' am sorry Keiichi, I
would like to apologize for my rude behavior. It's just
that you shouldn't let something as simple as that, stand
in your way of happiness."
Thinking about it, Keiichi realized that Guardian was right.
"Um..another reason is I am trying to save up the money to
get her a ring. THAT'S the real reason Guardian" Keiichi
replied looking up at him. Reaching into his pocket,
Guardian removed a small object and tossed it to Keiichi.
"The person who gave me this, told me that one day I would
find someone special to give it to. And I can't think of
anyone more special then you and Belldandy" Guardian replied
smiling. Opening his hand Keiichi gasped in shock, in his
hand was the exact same ring that he had been saving up for.
With tears in his eyes, he looked up at Guardian and asked
one single question "Why?" "I made a promise to someone" was
all that he received in answer from Guardian. With a slight
grin on his face, Guardian asked "What's your excuse now,
Romeo?" Looking down sheepishly Keiichi responded "Um..I am
waiting for the right moment?"
"Ok, that reason I will except, anyway we better return to
the house. It's almost lunch time and we really don't
want to worry your future wife again. Now do we?",
Guardian replied starting to laugh at Keiichi's reaction
to Belldandy being called his future wife. Walking up to
the house, Keiichi spoke "I just thought I would warn you,
my sister is a little infatuated with you. She thought
that you would hate her, for not returning the other night."
"Keiichi, your sister Megumi is a sweet, kind and beautiful
young woman. Any guy should feel lucky to know her, let
alone date her. But like Belldandy, she also already has
a future husband so don’t worry" Guardian replied. Keiichi
looked at Guardian in shock, as *why is he telling me this?*
crossed his mind. "I' am telling you this because, I know
how you worry about your little sister's well being"
Guardian said trying not to laugh at Keiichi's face turning
white.
"Um, Guardian?" Keiichi asked timidly, "You want me to stop
doing this right?" Guardian asked. "Y-Yes, if you don’t mind"
He replied. "I remind you too much of Urd when I do that don't
I?" Guardian stated as the reached the house. As they entered
Keiichi nodded in response to Guardian's question. It was then
that Megumi shyly walked up to Guardian, "Um G-Guardian w-would
you l-like to go w-with me t-to th-e p-party that the debate
club is having?" In the background Keiichi just shook his head
and sighed, receiving a dirty look from his sister in response.
Kissing her hand "As much as I would love to show up with the
most gorgeous women in the club. Sadly I can't for -" Guardian
was interrupted by the phone ringing. A few minutes later, Megumi
shakily replaced the phone and looked at Guardian in shock.
"That is why I can't, you already have a date" he replied
bowing to her. "If everyone can excuse me for a second" Megumi
quietly stated as she walked out of the room. With a smile on
his face Guardian started counted down "5-4-3-2-1". When he had
reached one, a female shriek of happiness was heard from the
other room.
Finding that everyone was looking in the direction of the
shriek, Guardian explained. "That call was from a guy that
she has had a crush on for years. He is also in her debate
club and he just had asked her to the club party himself" he
said. Keiichi looked at Guardian in wonder, ~~Now Keiichi
you know I can't tell you the answer to that. Don’t worry,
all I will say is that she will have a great time"~~
Guardian said in response to Keiichi's unspoken question of
was that his sister's future husband. Megumi walked back into
the room, with an apologetic expression on her face. "Guardian
I-" she started, smiling Guardian replied "Don’t worry Megumi,
You just go and enjoy yourself tonight ok?" A look of shock
crossed her face, she then gave Guardian a large hug. Blushing
deeply she said "Thank you Guardian, I' am um... going to get
changed now." Megumi then walked out, headed for her room to
change.
When she returned later, her face turned crimson from all of
the positive reaction's she received. Keiichi who was
speechless at first, stood up and told her "You look very
very beautiful Megumi, your date will not know what hit him."
For her own brother to say something like that, made Megumi
deeply blush. She never thought of herself as pretty, but when
Guardian gave her his opinion her face turned crimson. Guardian
glanced up when Megumi entered the room, and his jaw
promptly dropped. In all the years that he had know her in the
future, he had never seen her look so beautiful before. Before
he knew what he was doing, Guardian gave Megumi a long approving
whistle. When her face turned a deep red, he realized what he
had just done. Guardian started to apologize, when he softly
heard her whisper "Thank you Guardian."
It was then that he noticed that she was crying, he then
walked over to comfort her. Guardian felt responsible for making
her cry, since he did whistle at her. He put his arms around
her as he softly said "I didn't mean to make you cry Megumi.
But in all of the years that I had known you in the future,
I have never seen you look this gorgeous before." The only
reply that Guardian received, was Megumi burying her face into
his chest and starting to deeply sob. Speaking telepathically
so that only she could hear him, Guardian softly spoke.
~~Megumi I know how lonely you have been in the past, and the
real reason behind why your crying. But trust me princess,
after tonight your life will change for the better. I won't
tell you anymore, so not to spoil the surprise.~~
Megumi's eyes opened wide, when she heard Guardian speak to
her in her mind. She looked up at him in shock, ~~Yes, I know
that I surprised you by doing this. I just thought that you
would rather the others, didn't hear this. And yes Megumi you
will have a wonderful time tonight, so don’t worry. Your date
is a very lucky man, I just hope that he realizes it~~ Guardian
stated wiping the tears from Megumi's eyes. Ashamed from her
earlier emotional outburst, a deep red tint colored Megumi's
cheeks. When she refused to look up from the floor, Guardian
tilted her chin so that he could look into her teary brown
eyes. Without even asking he knew what she was worrying about.
~~He has never kissed anyone either princess, consider this a
learning experience for the both of you~~ Guardian grinned
and winked at her. Megumi gasped in shock at what he had just
said, she HAD been worried about that. She then blushed demurely
from what Guardian had hinted at.
~~Don't worry about the lovebirds, I believe they have their own
plans for tonight~~ Guardian stated. Keiichi started to speak
"Megumi, I was thinking since you were going to that party
tonight. Do you mind if I take everyone else out to eat?" Out
of the corner of her eye, Megumi noticed that Guardian was
motioning for her to say no. She didn't mind to begin with,
but she felt that it must be important for him to say something.
"Of course I don't mind Oniichan, you know that" she replied
wondering what was going to happen. After his sister left with
her date, Keiichi asked "Guardian, where should we take the
ladies to eat tonight?" "Keiichi, as much as I appreciate you
including me in the group. I am sorry but I already have plans
for tonight, so its your choice you decide where to go. Urd, you
know what to do when you get there right?" Guardian asked.
Urd nodded that she knew what to do, "Oniichan, don't you want
to come and eat with us?" Skuld asked pitifully. Signing sadly
Guardian replied "Lil Sis, I would love to go with you tonight.
But I have something I have to do instead, it's really important."
Skuld opened her mouth to say something else, when Urd placed a
hand on her shoulder. "Skuld, if he said that it was important,
trust me its real important" she stated. Guardian wearily sat
down in the living room, after everyone left to wait for his guest.
A little while later, just like clockwork, he detected the presence
of another being. His hunch played out, when the scent of roses
permeated the house. And he heard someone seductively call "Keiichi,
where are you my darling? Are you hiding in your room?, No your
not in your room. You know how much I like it when you play hard
to get." Guardian sat still on the couch, waiting for his guest to
make it to the living room.
"So this is where you where hiding, you naughty boy. Making me
look all over the place for you" came a female voice giggling
enticingly. Guardian quietly swallowed, hoping that he didn't
insult her by not being Keiichi. He knew that Peorth's temper
was legendary, even in the future that he came from. A pair of
warm silky arms then wrapped around his neck. and a enchanting
voice started to seductively whisper very graphic suggestive
ideas into his ear. "I don’t think that Belldandy would approve
of you trying to seduce Keiichi like that" Guardian replied.
The arms quickly left his neck, as Peorth hissed in a mad rage
"Who are you?? and where is my Keiichi." "Hello Peorth, my name
is Guardian, and as for Belldandy's boyfriend he is out with
the rest of his friends" Guardian replied turning around.
Peorth's eyes went wide, all of the anger she felt was replaced
by fear and terror.
*What did I do to have a warrior of infinity sent after me?
It couldn't be my playful actions toward Keiichi could it?* she
wondered trembling. "Don't worry Miss Peorth, I am not here for
you. I have a favor to ask of you though, I need your help with
my current mission" Guardian explained. Peorth's mouth flew open
in shock, as *He needs MY help? How can someone like myself help?*
"Your reputation as a gossip has reached even my time. I need for
you to spread a believable rumor about Belldandy for me" Guardian
asked. "I AM NOT A GOSSIP, I just tell people about the information
I hear" Peorth snapped. "I am sorry Lady Peorth for calling you
a gossip, but can you please do this small favor for me? You can
alter it all you want, but only if you kept the main message intact"
Guardian asked. Now this had her full attention, permission to alter
the rumor to her hearts content.
Biting her bottom lip, Peorth wondered *why a message would be so
important, to send a warrior to deliver it?* "Guardian, What's this
lil' old message about?" she asked coyly wrapping her arms around
his neck. After removing Peorth's arms from his neck, Guardian
spoke "This is a rumor that may soon be true, Belldandy is
considering becoming mortal for her love Keiichi." "But in order
for her to do that they.. have... to.. be... married" Peorth replied
as a look of shock crossed her face. "She can't do that he's mine,
and anyway he doesn't have the nerve to look at her! Let alone
propose to her, unless... YOU!" Peorth snarled glaring at Guardian.
"Do you love him Peorth?, do you want to see him happy? If this rumor
doesn't happen, history will repeat itself and both your Keiichi and
Belldandy will die" Guardian stated in a firm voice.
A look of pure terror and shock crossed Peorth's face, as she shakily
sat down. "W-what happened.." was all she could get out, sighing
Guardian replied "I am from what you would call four years in the
future." "In that timeframe both Keiichi and Belldandy have died,
one from a supposedly accidental gas explosion. The other from the
result of a demon attack, I am here to stop both of them from
happening. All I need is for you to start that rumor, make it
so realistic that the demons believe it" Guardian told her. Looking
down sadly Peorth asked, "That's what he's going to do tonight isn't,
he's going to propose to her?" After seeing Guardian shake his head
yes, she sadly said "I will do it for the both of them then."
Guardian put his arm around the now tearful Peorth, just as the both
of them felt a distinctive internal click of a promise fulfilled.
"Keiichi, are you sure you can afford a expensive place like this?" a
surprised and a bit worried Belldandy asked. "Yes my Bell-chan, I can
afford this I have been saving for this a long time" Keiichi replied
placing a reassuring hand on hers. Belldandy's face flushed a light
pink, as the thought of * his is being so bold tonight, its like he
is another person.... I wonder....?* ~~I am very insulted that
you would think, that I used one of my potions on him again. You know
that Father hasn't returned them to me, especially after the incident
with Thor. Maybe its because, he has decided to stop acting like a
sissy and start acting like a man.~~ A very annoyed Urd telepathically
stated. Belldandy knew it wasn't funny, but she started giggling as
she remembered how Urd turned Thor's normal blond hair Neon green.
~~Hey! it wasn't THAT funny when father found out about it!! Anyway
Thor started it in the first place~~ Urd mentally protested.
Noticing how Keiichi kept nervously looking at her sister, then at
his closed right hand. Urd got the message and spoke "Look Skuld,
they have an endless ice cream and sundae bar here." After Urd was
dragged away by Skuld, nagging her about why was she walking so slow.
Keiichi nervously swallowed, then asked "Bell?" Belldandy turned
to see what her Kei-chan wanted, and found him kneeling before her.
"Bell, the day that you came into my life, was the best thing ever
to happen to me. I know that we have been through our up's and downs
together. I am setting you free from your contract, I want your
decision to be your own not bound by the contract. Belldandy, my
angel will you marry me?" Keiichi asked presenting her with the ring
Guardian gave him. Belldandy's eyes flooded with tears, as her
memories of Keiichi's and her promise when they were children
returned.
"Yes, My dear Kei-chan I will marry you" she answered with tears
flowing down her cheeks. Everyone is the restaurant watched as
the proposal unfolded, started clapping and gave them their
congratulations. From where Urd was standing at the ice cream bar,
she wiped a stray tear from her eyes. "I was wondering when he was
going to ask Neechan, he sure took long enough didn't he Urd?" Skuld
stated her full attention on pouring hot fudge over her mix of several
different flavors of ice cream. Urd looked at Skuld in shock,
surprised that her sister was taking this so well. And after she
had worked so long to prevent this from happening to begin with.
~~I grew up Ok and found that it wouldn't be so bad to have Keiichi
as a big brother. You happy now Urd???~~ Skuld told her.
~~Could it be that my little sister, now understands about love?
Maybe it's because Guardian is know with us huh?~~ Urd hinted
winking at Skuld. ~~SHUT UP URD!!! I only think of Guardian as
Oniichan now ok~~ Skuld stated with a beautiful pink blush coloring
her face.

yes, she sadly said "I will do it for the both of them then."
Guardian put his arm around the now tearful Peorth, just as the both
of them felt a distinctive internal click of a promise fulfilled.
"Keiichi, are you sure you can afford a expensive place like this?" a
surprised and a bit worried Belldandy asked. "Yes my Bell-chan, I can
afford this I have been saving for this a long time" Keiichi replied
placing a reassuring hand on hers. Belldandy's face flushed a light
pink, as the thought of * his is being so bold tonight, its like he
is another person.... I wonder....?* ~~I am very insulted that
you would think, that I used one of my potions on him again. You know
that Father hasn't returned them to me, especially after the incident
with Thor. Maybe its because, he has decided to stop acting like a
sissy and start acting like a man.~~ A very annoyed Urd telepathically
stated. Belldandy knew it wasn't funny, but she started giggling as
she remembered how Urd turned Thor's normal blond hair Neon green.
~~Hey! it wasn't THAT funny when father found out about it!! Anyway
Thor started it in the first place~~ Urd mentally protested.
Noticing how Keiichi kept nervously looking at her sister, then at
his closed right hand. Urd got the message and spoke "Look Skuld,
they have an endless ice cream and sundae bar here." After Urd was
dragged away by Skuld, nagging her about why was she walking so slow.
Keiichi nervously swallowed, then asked "Bell?" Belldandy turned
to see what her Kei-chan wanted, and found him kneeling before her.
"Bell, the day that you came into my life, was the best thing ever
to happen to me. I know that we have been through our up's and downs
together. I am setting you free from your contract, I want your
decision to be your own not bound by the contract. Belldandy, my
angel will you marry me?" Keiichi asked presenting her with the ring
Guardian gave him. Belldandy's eyes flooded with tears, as her
memories of Keiichi's and her promise when they were children
returned.
"Yes, My dear Kei-chan I will marry you" she answered with tears
flowing down her cheeks. Everyone is the restaurant watched as
the proposal unfolded, started clapping and gave them their
congratulations. From where Urd was standing at the ice cream bar,
she wiped a stray tear from her eyes. "I was wondering when he was
going to ask Neechan, he sure took long enough didn't he Urd?" Skuld
stated her full attention on pouring hot fudge over her mix of several
different flavors of ice cream. Urd looked at Skuld in shock,
surprised that her sister was taking this so well. And after she
had worked so long to prevent this from happening to begin with.
~~I grew up Ok and found that it wouldn't be so bad to have Keiichi
as a big brother. You happy now Urd???~~ Skuld told her.
~~Could it be that my little sister, now understands about love?
Maybe it's because Guardian is know with us huh?~~ Urd hinted
winking at Skuld. ~~SHUT UP URD!!! I only think of Guardian as
Oniichan now ok~~ Skuld stated with a beautiful pink blush coloring
her face.
