The Blue Iris
The Blue Iris Part II

Fiti kept blushing herself, Snap out of it Fiti you're acting 15. she thought to herself with a small grin, well, he is sorta cute.
Fenix felt a tingling in his cheeks as he looked at her he sighed quietly and thought to himself, She is like an angel a beautiful radiant angel. Fiti averted her eyes and was saved by her apartment coming up rapidly on her left. She made a dash for it and slid her key card in and opened it calling "Aiko." Into the empty apartment, hoping her friend would be home. Fenix walked to the door and began to blush Fenix stop this, you have duties Fenix shook his head trying to stop blushing.
"I guess Aiko isn't here." Fiti said gently. "I guess I'll have to find where she hid it. This could take awhile, please, sit down." she said pleasantly motioning toward a small sofa.
Fenix took a seat on the sofa and looked around and closed his eyes taking a small break from being serious for a change.
Fiti started pulling out drawers and opening cabinets rummaging through clothes and other disks trying to find the missing Libra disks "I could have sworn Aiko put these somewhere around here." Fenix looked at a table and saw some disks marked with the symbol for Libra, He picked them up
"Fiti I found them" he said softly
Fiti blushed a deep crimson
"Oops. Yep those are them." she said a tad sheepishly. "Anyway, those are them. I guess you'll be leaving soon then, huh?" she said the last part sounding a little disappointed.
Fenix sighed and looked down saying
"I don?t know if I want to leave I have my duty but I want to stay here and get to know you better" he closed his eyes softly.
Fiti jumped ever so slightly and finally managed to choke out
"I really, really don't meet many people quite as interesting as you." she said softly sitting down next to him. "And I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel the same way you do."
Fenix smiled softly opening his eyes
"I do own a flower shop on earth, I don?t work as a spy all the time" he said looking to her admiring the beauty of her brown eyes again.
She smiled back meeting his gaze with hers. "And I'm the guardian of a 14 year old girl. And neither of us can return to Earth really. That's why I'm considering quitting." She said gently, her voice was slowly getting quieter almost subconsciously.
Fenix looked down blushing saying "I could get you back to earth though"
He looked down softly and closed his eyes again "I need to protect the flowers on earth."
Fiti turned her head to stare at him a little better, "Oh really?" she said quizzically, "How would you propose to do that?"
Fenix looked at Fiti again and thought slowly "Well we could get you back by having you pose as my wife and Aiko could pose as our adoptive daughter" Fenix sighed looking down Fenix that was a stupid Idea
"Ok" Fiti blurted out in a moment. "I'd have to talk to Aiko, but seeing Earth again would be nice, at least for a little while."
Fenix looked up blushing and smiling his hair falling into his eyes "I thought that was my worst idea ever." He said brushing his hair away.
Fiti smiled gently "It wasn't a bad idea." she said kindly "Actually it's better the any of the ones I came up with. I have a little business left I have to take care of anyway. And I'd love to go with you, really."
Fenix was shocked and blushed even more his face red as a rose he smiled at Fiti and said "I actually based my idea on my ummm errrr growing feelings for you" he looked down and sighsSome spy you are you cant even keep a secret from a girl you just met
Fiti smiled gently and brushed a bit of his hair behind his ears gently and said "I actually feel pretty much the same way about you. I don't feel this way about many guys, actually I don't think I've ever felt this way about a guy before. It's sort of unnerving to me too."
Fenix Blushed as his eyes met hers he felt something in his heart that he never felt before as he smiled he said "I guess this is what you call love at first site huh?" He was blushing even more
Fiti smiled at his joke. "Yes I suppose it is." she said laughing gently He's so sweet. she thought to herself I wonder how I ended up falling for somebody so polite.
Fenix looked at her feeling actually happy for a change he gazed into her eyes and thought to himself I finally met a woman who is mature Fenix smiled and scooted a little closer to her just a little bit.
Fiti giggled a little bit We're both acting like silly kids she thought to herself but it's fun. With that she got a mischievous glint in her eye, leaned in gently and kissed his lips gently.
Fenix returned the kiss softly, he stroked Fiti's hair closing his eyes he felt whole for a change he liked how he felt.
Fiti closed her eyes and kissed Fenix back a little more Oh my God I can't believe I'm sitting on a sofa acting as foolish as a teenager kissing somebody I just met today. Fiti almost started giggling but at that moment the door swung open and Aiko walked in. Aiko took one look at the site before her, turned around and walked back out shutting the door behind her. She had a strangely traumatized look on her face. Fenix gazed into Fiti's eyes trying not to say I love you he sighed caressing Fiti's cheek he seemed real happy for a change it was strange the black rose of the bloody scythe was in love.
Fiti smiled and him, feeling his hand on her cheek. It felt soo very nice. She lifted one of her hands up and touched his hair then started giggling gently and whispered "I think we scared Aiko."
Fenix smiled gazing into her eyes and said "Oh really..."Fenix chuckled placing his forehead to Fiti's still fighting off the powerful three words I love you.
Fiti smiled back and leaned in gently and kissed him again. Then finally whispered, "You're cute, you know that?" before kissing him again.
Fenix returned the kiss and said, "Your beautiful, you know that?" as he kissed her again.
Fenix finally got the courage to say the words to Fiti but almost choked on his words trying to say it he gazed into her eyes bringing his face closer to kiss her softly again he then said "Fiti Amuro I-I-I love you" he blushed bright red again.
Fiti was mildly shocked but managed to compose herself again fairly quickly and finally managed form enough of a coherent thought to say "I...I think I love you too."
Fenix kissed her again and smiled and gazed into her eyes again and tried to get a hold of himself but couldn't as he smiled at her again.
