The night went slow, morning seemed so eternally late to come, Rhyokyo tossed and turned upon his bed, surely he could not sleep, he was far too nervous and exited. He thought of how he could possibly sleep, everytime he closed his eyes, they only seemed to open by themselves, he was too mentally active. "I need to get some rest" he thought again and again, until he finally fell asleep, deeply. His tiredness finally took over the small adrenaline he had. Slowly the rest of the night went by, he had small dreams, of possible memories. Content with his finding, he once more had the dream of the field, only, that he was not alone. Alongside him, was Kris, in the most beautiful form he could imagine. The moon was bright, making the flower's reflection light up for them. He slowly approached Kris, with his heart beating faster, stronger with every step he stood closer to her. He trembled when he held her in his arms, and hesitated to say some words, but he surely expressed...

-"The most beautiful flower for the most beautiful person..." - this seemed too familiar to him-.

Then, as he approached her lips, he felt she slowly faded away, and all of a sudden, someone called his name. "Rhyokyo", a distant, weak voice called to him, "Rhyokyo", it called once more and then he opened his eyes and awoke from his slumber. Slowly he blinked, it was bright, the sun was up and next to him, was Lily, sitting and smiling. After seeing her, he picked the pillow and buried his head beneath it.

-"It's too early... let me sleep a few more minutes... or hours..." - he muffled and tried to sleep some more-.

-"Sleep more?!?" - Lily laughed -"It's actually mid-day, you missed breakfast" - she giggled -"Kris tried to wake you up but since she saw you were so tired, she decided to let you sleep some more".

-"What?!?!?" - he sprang up quickly, picked up some new clothes and ran out of the room-.

-"Men... you will never understand them" - she shrugged and laughed as she retired from the room-.

In the shower, Rhyokyo once more thought while the water ran on him, through him. The "what's if's" crossed his mind, followed by "maybe's". Then he thought about his dream, how close he was from embracing her lips. And then, one questioned seemed to pop from his mind.

-"Wait... how come I did the same thing... as they did?..." - he recalled the couple they say their first day, when Kris explained things about 'love' -"Maybe it's a natural feeling..." - he said as he got a slight headache-.

The headache meant something... in recognition from a small recalled memory, he finally understood, and remembered what is 'love', and every simple, but marvellous thing that has to be known about it. He smiled then he felt awkward, it was a bit odd for him to recall something which he not knew and all of a sudden, just knew. But of course, he thought this was a sure good thing. As he finished showering, he slowly came up with something.

-"I'll take her tonight" - he said happily as he dried himself -"I just hope she like's it..." - he said once more-.

Afterwards he walked out, freshly showered and with new clothes. Then he saw Jixian coming his way.

-"Put some of this on!" - Jixian said while spraying him with some perfume-.

-"Ugh... what is this??" - he coughed as Jixian 'showered' him with the small, but greatly odorant perfume-.

-"You have to admit that now you smell good" - she winked-.

-"True but... why?" - He asked-.

-"Let's just say... some girls like it" - she giggled-.

-"Oh... thank you then..." - he said-.

-"I think it's almost time for dinner" - she grinned -"Ready to take her 'there' after that?" - she giggled-.

-"I sure hope so" - Rhyokyo said nervously determined-.
