Chapter 12: Lovey Dovey!

 

Dustin ran into Rin's clinic and went over to Jiro. “I need 500 coins now!” Dustin yelled shaking Jiro.

 

“What do you need that for?” Jiro asked pushing Dustin's hands away from him.

 

“I need to buy Aine!” Dustin shouted.

 

“What are you talking about?” Kohaku asked.

 

“Aine ran into a man and he took her to a brothel,” Dustin explained.

 

“How could you do that to her?! Why didn't you stop him?” Jiro asked.

 

“I was caught up by three other men. I tried to stop them, but I couldn't get to her in time,” Dustin sighed feeling guilt run through him. Jiro grabbed Dustin's arm and pulled him down the street.

 

“Where are we going?” Dustin asked.

 

“We are going to get Aine out of that place,” Jiro stated. Dustin pulled his arm away from Jiro and ran forward feeling that something was off. It was as if he could feel Aine and she was terrified. What made her feel this way?

 

He ran up to the brothel and the owner walked over to him. “Welcome back sir! I'm sorry, but the girl you requested is with a costumer right now,” the woman smiled sweetly.

 

“Move aside,” Dustin ordered.

 

“Excuse me, but you can't go back their without buying a girl,” the owner snapped. Jiro came up behind Dustin and pushed the guards to the side.

 

“Go Dustin. Go get Aine,” Jiro said. Dustin nodded at Jiro and ran into the building toward the feeling that was pulling him. He ran until he came across a door. He knew Aine was behind it, he could feel it.

 

He heard a muffled scream come from the other side and kicked down the door. His blood boiled at the sight he saw. An old man was on top of Aine trying to take off her yukata. He went up and pulled the man off of her.

 

“Hey!” the old man yelled.

 

Dustin turned to him and whispered in a deadly voice, “If you value your pathetic life then leave.”

 

The man gulped and nodded before running out of the room. Aine threw herself at Dustin before he even had the chance to turn around. “I'm so glad you came for me! You don't know how scared I was!” she cried.

 

“It's okay now. I'm here,” he whispered into her ear while he ran his hand through her hair.

 

Aine looked up at his face and saw genuine concern on his face. She smiled slightly and said, “I'm alright now that you're here. So what's the plan for escaping?”

 

“Plan?” he asked confused.

 

“Don't tell me you ran in here without a plan! They'll catch us both!” Aine yelled.

 

“Jiro is holding back the guards at the front so can't we just walk out?” Dustin asked.

 

“Why are you asking me? You're the one who broke in here,” Aine said crossing her arms in annoyance. Dustin grabbed her hand and pulled her out the door.

 

“Hey! What if Jiro isn't holding them back anymore?” Aine asked.

 

“He wouldn't leave you like that,” Dustin said squeezing her hand. He walked back to the front door and found all the guards unconscious and Jiro sitting on the floor cross-legged.

 

“About time you came down!” Jiro yelled standing. Aine laughed thinking the situation was hilarious. Dustin and Jiro looked at her as if she were crazy.

 

“Let's go before someone calls the magistrate!” Jiro growled and grabbed Aine's other hand. Jiro pulled Aine out of the building causing Aine to pull Dustin after them.

 

“We need to split town soon or those people will come after you,” Dustin told Aine. Aine nodded in agreement and they were at Rin's clinic before they realized it.

 

“Welcome back Aine! I take it they got you out in time?” Kohaku asked.

 

“I guess you could say that,” Aine smiled.

 

“How much did you owe the owner?” Rin asked.

 

“I don't know. They stole me back,” Aine laughed.

 

“That's not right! They are going to be after you from now on! You have to get out of Edo!” Rin shouted going into a panic.

 

“Calm down Rin! We still got some time before we have to leave. All the guards are old cold for the next couple of hours,” Dustin reassured.

 

“All thanks to me!” Jiro exclaimed trying to get some say in the conversation. Aine looked down at the hand that was holding hers and followed the arm up to Dustin's face. She pulled her hand out of his remembering that she was still mad about what had happened earlier. She crossed her arms and turned away from Dustin. She huffed and stuck her nose in the air.

 

“What's going on now?” Dustin asked.

 

“Don't talk to me!” Aine yelled and ran to the back of the clinic.

 

“I think she's still mad,” Rin stated. Jiro sighed and sat down. This wasn't going to end soon. Aine could really hold a grudge.

 

Dustin shook his head and walked after Aine. He walked into the room she was sitting in and sat down next to her. “Look Aine, you ran out before I could say what I really wanted to say. So yeah, I'm not really good with things like this so I'll just come out and say it. I share your feelings. I love you Aine.”

 

Aine looked up at Dustin with tearful eyes. “Do you really mean that because I can't handle you playing with my heart like that,” she whispered.

 

“Of course I mean it. Believe it or not, I love you and no one else,” he smiled.

 

“But how could you? You're a famous rock star!” she exclaimed gripping his kimono and shaking him a bit.

 

He laughed and grabbed her hands in his. “My status in society means nothing. I'd give it all up to be with you.”

 

Aine blushed, knowing he was telling the truth. “I thought you said you weren't good with this kind of stuff,” she stated.

 

“I'm usually not, why?” he asked.

 

“Because that was the most romantic thing I've ever heard. I don't think a movie line could top that!” she cried and hugged him.

 

“So you're not mad anymore?” he asked.

 

“I was never mad. Well, I was mad just not at you, more at myself,” she sighed. He pulled her to him and felt relief fill his body. Everything was going to be okay now. Things were going to get better now.

After a short goodbye to Rin and Kohaku they were on their way. Aine, Jiro, and Dustin were off to the river where Aine and Dustin washed up. They thought they could try to find a clue on going back home. Since they had nothing better to do they might as well retrace their steps.

 

“Are you going to go back to your pack?” Aine asked Jiro.

 

“I don't know. I don't really have anything there. I was only supposed to stay until I found a mate then start a clan of my own, but now that you're with that stupid human I can't really go back now,” Jiro smirked at her.

 

“I'm sorry. I ruined everything for you,” Aine whispered.

 

“It's not a problem! I was starting to get tired of that place anyway. It's about time I start looking for a mate of my own anyway,” Jiro said trying to make her feel better.

 

“I'll help! Let me help you find that perfect mate!” Aine offered.

 

“I don't know. That's something I should do,” Jiro said.

 

“Just let her set you up with some girls. Women always love to play matchmaker,” Dustin whispered to Jiro.

 

“Please Jiro! Let me help!” Aine begged.

 

“Fine, but mates are for life so you can't get me any stupid ones,” Jiro stated.

 

“I'll find the perfect girl for you!” Aine smiled with a determined look on her face. Dustin shook his head at her and smiled inwardly. He just couldn't believe he had met a girl like her. He felt so lucky.

 

“It's okay if you don't find someone,” Jiro said.

 

“Nonsense! I will find someone!” Aine yelled.

 

“Okay I'll leave it to you,” Jiro stated.

 

“Leave him alone Aine. He should find his mate on his own,” Dustin sighed.

 

“I'm only trying to help,” Aine said looking up at him with big puppy dog eyes. He chuckled and put a hand on her head in an affectionate manner. Aine smiled up at him and moved his arm to hang it around her shoulder.

 

Dustin would always treat Aine like a child, but she loved it. Even though they were the same age she loved being babied by him. She wondered how many girlfriends he's had and treated like this.

 

“It's getting dark. We should stop here and make camp,” Jiro stated.

 

“Okay, but we could go farther,” Dustin said.

 

“Yeah, but there is a spring nearby,” Jiro said pointing in the direction of the spring.

 

“I vote for us stay here! I want a nice hot bath!” Aine cheered.

 

“Alright let's camp out here then,” Dustin agreed.
