The thornless rose ((Kiki*Tsukiakara)) **mature**

“Yellow sounds nice.” He said as he started to make the tea for her. The smell of mint filled the little basement they called home for now. “I think if we work hard we could finally sleep above ground” Tsukiakara said.

Inori nodded and said, "That'd be nice babe." she walked over and hugged him from behind as she waited for the tea to finish.

Tsukiakara liked the hug. “It almost done dear” He said sweetly. When it was he pour both of them a glass of tea.

Inori nodded and slowly started sipping the tea. "Mm you take such good care of me all the time." she murmured softly.

“I just try my best to make you happy” He said as he sipped his tea. After he was done he was ready to start building.

"Well you're good at it." she said laughing and cleaning up the dishes. "Soon we can start painting."

“Yep” He said happily as he walked up the stairs out of the basement. He started to get the wood ready outside as he waited for Inori to finish the dishes.

When she finished she came up and said, "Want me to help? Hand you stuff or anything?"

“Most of the hard stuff his taken care of. All we pretty much need to do is all the hammering.” He said as he got out two hammers and a bunch of nails. All the walls were frozen into place by his ice sword. All they needed to do was to hammer them all down so they stayed walls when the ice melted.

Inori nodded and began hammering. "Does doing that.... Yah know...." she didn't want to asked but wanted to know if it shortened his life.

“This one doesn’t though… someone had to die in order for this sword to be made” He said kind of regretting he said it. An ice style user was defeated by his great-great grandfather and that ice style user’s life force was embedded into the sword.

"Oh." she said happily. "That's alright. You won't die." that's all she really cared about. She wondered if she really would only have ten years with him.

He started hammering away at the first section of the wall. Since the sword did most of the hard work they would probably be done before sunset. “How you doing?” He asked when he had a short break (ran out of nails.)

She looked over. "Oh, alright. How about you?" she nuzzled his chest with her head.

"Pretty good we're making good progress." He said. The first floor was more then halfway done. They even had a front door now. Tsukiakara warped his arms around and hugged Inori not worrying about getting more nails.

She sighed and looked into his eyes. "This is the life babe. You make me so happy." inori was breathing heavy.

"Is there something wrong honey" He asked thinking something was wrong when she was breathing heavily.

"Huh? Oh no i was just working too hard." tries to stop. "Just a little winded is all." she laughed and stroked his hair. "Thank you for caring."

"Well okay. I think I can finish the building part. Do you want to start with the painting?" He asked.

She looked at him funny. "Uh babies probably don't like the smell of paint..." she said raising an eyebrow with a smile.

"Oh your probably right." Tsukiakara said. This was the first time he was a father so he didn't know what was right or wrong. "I'll do that don't worry. You should probably take a break maybe make something to eat." He said with a smile. He then let go of the hug and went to get more nails.

"I'll make sandwiches for us both." she went and began cooking, humming softly to herself.

When she went downstairs, Tsukiakara worked even harder. He wanted to finish it before she came back as a little surprise.

Inori smiled and nuzzled him. "What are you doing sexy man?" she asked hugging him tightly. She had fixed food fir when ever he wanted it. She had also tidied up and started decorating downstairs.

When she hugged him he was right in the middle of painting. “Just giving our house a little color. This was the paint you wanted right?” he asked. He didn’t want to have messed up but he would of gladly redo it if she truly wanted it.
