Dropping In (AnaxSashura, but feel free to barge in Nero HAHA!!)

[Guest]

Sashura walked into the warmth of the Headquarters from the freezing snow outside, however, the weather was of no effect to him, he was all too used to such cold weather. He bore a warm smile on his face, and his crystal eyes seemed to observe every detail of the Headquarters. Why? Simply because he was in search of something. He had been escorted by two guards to the base after being approved access by the head. He usually wore his Drachman militant uniform, however, due to some friends in Central, he was now wearing clothing suited for an Amestrian Militant. His hairstyle was also different. He usually wore his long, silver hair up in the back, but llowed two bangs to fall, but now his hair was long ad silk like, flowing down to the mid of his back. He wore black leather gloves that had his alchemic circles engraved in them.

"Do you have any clue where she would be?"

"No sir, First Lieutenent Kir. All I can tell you is that she is in this building."

The soldier before Sashura was indeed a young man, his voice not fully matured and containing a small, country accent. Sashura simply sighed slightly and nodded before he walked off and made his own rounds in search of the woman. His footsteps seemed heavy as he stepped, for a click came from his boots every time his foot met with that tiled floor. His cold, diamond clue eyes seemed to scan the areas closely and quickly as if he were a cyborg searching for an important figure from the past. He, however, never let his smile fade, trying to seem as if he was truly one of them. His katana jingled on his waist, and when he finally caught wind of another beautiful militant, he whisked right over to her.

"Excuse me, but do you know where I can find Anastasiya Romanov? Very beautiful woman, Drachman... She has beautiful eyes, just like yours, yet hers are crimson..."

[Guest]

"Okay I want you to give this report to Central HQ immediately." She said with a yawn, taking off her glasses. Anastasiya rubbed her eyes to rub the tiredness away but it did not work, she decided to grab a cup of coffee now that her break has started. She got up, starting gathering her papers and stacked them into one piile until..
"Madame, there's a man looking for you."One of her female assistants said. Anastasiya carried putting the papers onto a stack and started to make coffee, as if the assistant wasn't there.
"Did he say who he was.." She asked, her voice tired and slurred. Anastasiya pulled an all nighter doing work and.....handling that guard that was following her around. They found him outside naked, and lobotomized. He couldn't speak and telll who did it to him so they sent him to Central hospital....
"He said he was First Lieutenent Sashura Kir, madame."When her assistant said those words, Anastasiya dropped her coffee, spilling it everywhere on the floor. He's here in Briggs?!
She ran past the assistant, telling her to clean up the mess and ran to the slipperly ice hallway, turning her this way and that. Where is he...?

[Guest]

Sashura waited calmly for his beloved, leaning against a wall, his left hand resting on the hilt of his katana. He let a small smirk take to the corner of his mouth as he thought about Ana, and finally, once he looked up, he saw her, looking around confused and searching for him, hopefully. He let a small 'humph' echo from his chest and walked up behind her, placig his hand into hers, turning her around so she could see him. His eyes were slendered, although that may have bee due to his Auregese heritage. His smile never left his face, and he quickly kissed her lips gently ad softly, causing many eyes to turn towards their direction.

"I've missed you for quite some time..."

Sashura chuckled lightly, and pushed a strand of his long hair out of his face, allowing his diamond eyes to look into hers. His hands hadn't let go of hers yet, and this made many start to whisper. Where they married? Former lovers? Dating? What was the relationship between the two of them!? Of course, only two people knew that answer: Her and himself. He pulled her into his chest and hugged her gently, his voice soft and smooth, and eve a little lgihter than usual.

"I missed you, so I decided to drop by. I hope that's alright?"

[Guest]

Anastasiya became surprised by his kiss, as she always is but as always, she kissed back, wrapping her arms around him. She looked into his eyes, her crimson eyes were the very opposite of his diamond eyes. She never saw such beautiful eyes in a man before....Maybe it was because she never looked at any man's eyes so intensely as his...
"I think you dropping by was the best thing ever since I came here." Anastasiya whispered in his ear seductively but tenderly as well. She stroked his long hair, smiling. It was so straight and sleek unlike her naturally wavy hair but it was okay...This man was the most delicious looking specimen she ever touched and laid eyes on...
She then saw and heard people whispering, trying to be discreet about it but Anastasiya can heard everything. This shouldn't be new really. Anastasiya wanted to flunt out a kiss or something to prove their questions but that's abit too much? What if Nero came here....Nice mannered man, too bad she might break his heart...

[Guest]

Sashura could hear the whispers floating about, but it was the least of his worries. He was by Ana now, so why worry about such trivial matters as such as these people? He then noticed something... His stomach wanted to growl... Sashura shook his head and told himself not to be hungry at this time, for now, all he wanted to do was enjoy his time with her, not worry about food. He finally pulled back from the hug and kissed her again, having missed her touch and sweet smell. He was happy to know that she wanted to see him, but was even happier to know that he had beaten a certain man who was attempting to steal her from him. Yes, Sashura knew all about the young man, who supposedly was spending alot of time with Anastasiya, but in the end, he was no match for the charms of Sashura. He wnated to let out a hardy laugh, but his strict personality hardly even let him smile as freely as now, let alone laugh in such a way.

"Why don't we go somewhere and catch up? I'd love to here of your experience here... Plus, I have something important to tell you."

It was strange for Sashura to live through something like this. It was not often that you got to experience 'instat love', especially not in this day and age with technology and such.... Jeez, he was starting to feel like an old man iwth the pattern of speech he was using. He sighed slightly, but once he remembered that he was close to his beloved, there was no worry in all the world. Hell, Drachma could even be attacked right now and he wouldn't care... Okay, maybe he would, but still

[Guest]

"Sure thing~" She said, switching to her native drachman. Anastasiya realised she spoke in Amestrian and laughed to herself quietly. She has been here for so long, she did not speak her native language often and because half the people here considered her the "enemy"
Anastasiya wrapped her arm around his arm and started to lead him to her office and started to whisper everything to him in Drachman. These whispers were only heard by Sashura. Not even heard by the guard, another one stationed to take the place of the one before him, could hear her.
"I've been made Head of Political Affairs here but Reila posted guards around me 24/7. So she suspects.." She whispered to him. Anastasiya caught sight of her office door and opened it, leading him inside. Her assistant just finished up cleaning up the mess she left behind. Anastasiya told her to leave, locking the door aftwards.
She turned to him and smiled, tracing his fine lips with her finger.
"So, what do you need to tell me?"

[Guest]

Sashura followed her back to her office, her whispered words not seeming to phase him. Reila was indeed a powerful being, and with Briggs reinforced the way it is, it would be foolish on their part to make any sudden actions. After they entered her office, there was a woman who had appeared to be cleaning up some mess and had finihed right when they arrived, only to be kicked out. Whe they woman was sent from the office, Ana shut the door and locked it and placed her finger on his lips, tracing them gently. Sashura simply smiled and turned back to her desk, taking a seat in a chair near the wall. He crossed his legs femininely, ad rested his head on his hand. He bore a cunning smile on his face, and his eyes seemed to concentrate on the weather outside, rather than the woman who stood across from him.

"You see, I am to be stationed here in North. So, I'm looking to hope that you will not mind me dropping by occassionaly. Even without warnig or further notice. Of course, I will only due this with your permission."

He did not look back at her, not once, for some strange reason. No, his eyes were still focused on the cold weather and white snow outside that window. What was it about the outside that attracted him so much? Well, he would keep that to himself. He chuckled slightly before he sat up a little and looked back at the beautiful young woman. Then, the words just slipped from his mouth without warning and against his will.

"Shall we... Go out for a second date?"

[Guest]

She sat on her desk, still piled with paperwork and so forth. It was so tiring doing all this labour, it either bored her or made seducing men and stealing their money so much more fun. But she isn't doing anymore, in fact; Anastasiya was sort of glad for it..
"Of course I don't mind you stopping by~ You're always welcome." Anastasiya said with a wink. Then she looked outside the window with him, looking at the endless snow white that covered this area. Everything she saw was snow but Anastasiya liked it. Snow was pure and soft, something she will never be. She could of if she had another chance or if her father hadn't...
Then she heard him ask for a second date, her smile glowed in her face. Anastasiya nodded her head and leaned towards him, tenderly kissing his lips. It was pretty obvious what her answer was..
"Yes, lets."

[Guest]

Sashura chuckled lightly when she agreed to his invitation of visit, and was slightly surprised when she kissed him on the lips, kissing her back. He had figured he'd gotte the answer he wated, but just incase... When she nodded and consented a second date, the diamond grey eyes of Sashura seemed to light up with joy, but he quickly hid that by looking at the ground and chuckiling lightly, stroking his hand through his long hair. He wasn't used to wearig it down like this, so it ofte made him question his current looks. The fact that he was wearing his hair down also made him feel akward, since it was against Drachman military protocall. He stood up from his seat and took her hand, stepping closer to her, standing right betwee her legs, and kissed her again, a smile following behind it along with a series of words.

"Where would you like to go? Money is no option... Time is't of option either."

Sashura seemed to have been more relaxed around her now, strangely, and didn't seem so strict and up tight as their first meeting, but he was slightly confused... Was his current way of acting correct Had she fallen in love with the strict, uptight Sashura? Or did she just love him as a person whole? These questions mortified him, for he knew not the answer, but he tried not to let it show for her sake...

[Guest]

She kissed back, drewing him closer towards her. Anastasiya stroked his hair, eventually running her fingers through it. It was so soft and silky...It was nice to feel and she just couldn't stop...
"You should let your hair down like this more often, it's soo nice~" She said, lightly kissing his hair that she had intertwined in her finely manicured fingers. Anastasiya wrapped her left arm on his back and leaned on his chest, feeling relaxed finally. She let her eyes close and listened to his words...
"Hmm where to go, where to go....I'm not sure~ Maybe you can surprise me? I was thinking about walking around Briggs...Enjoy the snow." She said in a soft voice. Anastasiya slowly wrapped her arms around his waist, but her eyes were still closed. She never has been lovingly clingly to a man but it was nice. Espicially when it was him....Warm and nice...Sure she was abit talller than he was but that wasn't a problem at all..

[Guest]

Sashura felt her touch and shuddered slightly with delight, happy to feel her smooth touch once more after so long. Her voice was like that of an angel, and the feel of her hands running through his hair was wonderful. His diamond eyes closed as he leaned his head on her shoulder, enjoying her embrace, his hands and arms wrapped around her waist. It wasn't often that he got to feel so relaxed and comfortable in a foreign nation. He sighed with happiness and then pulled back from her, extending his hand out for her to take. She wanted to walk through the beauty of the snow, then so be it.

"Shall we make our leave then?"

Sashura was a very gentleman like character, and despite his appearance, he could actually be very nice. The thought of walking through the white snow with Ana made him delighted, and so, he could not wait to go with her. He was ready to leave, but then he remembered something that he forgot... He had no clue on how to get out of this building. A light tint of pink came to his face and he kinda chuckled to himself, trying his hardest to remember.

[Guest]

Anastasiya took his hand and smiled. She unlocked the door and saw the guard right outside, his back in her face. This annoyed her. Why did Reila posted guards around her? She was going to do the same thing she did to the last one very very soon.
"Excuse me, I do believe you're in my way sir." Anastasiya said in a very annoying, "I-have-no-paitence" voice, making the guard instantly turn around and giving her space to leave. He bowed in apology but Anastasiya ignored him. But she could not ignore the trailing look in his eyes. It wasn't lust but felt like he was watching her. Wait of course he is!
Anastasiya interlocked her arm around his, leaning her head on his shoulder with a smile on her face. She did not want him to be annoyed or kill anyone, he was like a beast that would attack anything that threatened to steal his prey....
"Don't mind him, I'll take care of him later.." She said, giving him a cheeky side glance..

[Guest]

Sashura was led by his beloved Anastasiya out the door, however, before they could even make it through the door, a man stood in their path, becoming a hinderance to them both. Sashura was annoyed by this man, however, Ana took care of him, simply ordering him to move out of the way, and telling Sashura to keep calm. He eyed the man with a dark glare, which caused the militat official to practically yelp i fear when he saw Sashura's hand tighte its grip. The man tried his best to keep his composure, and started eyeing thr ground desperatly to escape any harm that would come his way. Sashura simply smiled warmly and obeyed his love's wishes, following her out of the building and into the snow outside.

"It truly is beautiful...."

When he said this, he removed his jacket and wrapped it around Ana, hoping to protect her from the cold winds. It was her choice to go for a walk, so he would let her lead. Wherever she wanted to go, he would follow obediently, without question. If she wanted to walk to the Drachman border, then so be it. If she wated to walk all across Amestris to the Xingese border, then he would proudly follow her. The world was at her fingertips, all she had to do was say the word...

[Guest]

Anastasiya breathed in the ice cold air, feeling her teeth take a chill from it. She muttered a thank you to Sashura, wrapping the jacket closer towards her body. Anastasiya looked at Sashura and walked towards him and hugged him.
"Hmmm~ So much warmer~" She said in a soft, melodic voice. Anastasiya looked up the snowing sky and playfully poked out her toungue. A snowflke fell onto it but melted against the heat of her mouth.
She giggled like a little girl and started to dance around the snow, her toungue still poking out in order to taste my snowflakes
"Taste's like water....Hmm, I like it." She said laughing, wondering what the hell she just said. Anastasiya continuted to dance in the snow, taking steps here and there and eventually grabbed Sashura and made him dance a slow waltz with her.
"I'm so glad you came..." She whispered, the longing in her crimsom eyes reflected clearly..

[Guest]

Sashura chuckled lightly and watched as hse danced in the snow, sticking her tongue out to catch the dancing snowflakes. He couldn't help but smile at the site, and laughed lightly when she came over and hugged him. When he felt her tug him along, he made sure to follow obedietly, not wanting her to make a mistake and trip if he didn't bulge. Suddenly, he was waltzing with her in the snow... He didn't know much about dancing, but he followed her steps and caught on rather quickly, enjoying the dance in the snow and holding her close so she was warm... And simply because he enjoyed the feeling of her being so close to him. When she said that she was happy that he came, he couldn't help but laugh freely before he agreed with her.

"I'm happy I came too."

As they continued to waltz for a few more minutes, many thoughts danced through Sashura's mind. He didn't think much of it before, but now his mind was consumed by the thought... He let out a calm sigh and continued to dance, holding her waist and hand gently. His diamond eyes contiued to focus on the starry sky and snowflakes that fell upon them from the heavens before he finally decided to speak, his voice very low, as if he was trying to hide what he wanted to say...

"Will you mary me?"

When Sashura heard those words slip from his mouth, his eyes widened with surprise and he quickly started laughing ervously, trying to figure out what to say. This had only been their second date, he was moving far too quickly for his own good... The thought of her laughing in his face and saying no was unimaginable to him, and so he wouldn't have to imagine it, he played it off as a joke.

"Hahaha, I'm just joking, you don't have to answer that question."

[Guest]

Anasatsiya simply smiled and kissed his lips lightly, soft as butterly wings.
"I would say yes if you weren't "joking". But could you possibily marry me knowing that I killed so many other husbands before me?" She asked, her eyes abit sad and guilty. Her first husband bought her from thr brothel she worked in. He was a nice man but Anastasiya was too disturbed, to mentally unstable to see things clearly. One day she killed him by poisioning his tea and ran off with his money.
She simply sighed and kept on dancing, her head resting on Sashura's shoulder. Anastasiya could never kill this man, she would kill herself first. Eventually, Anastasiya stopped dancing and looked up into his diamond eyes.
"Would you ever, despite that?" She asked in a whisper. Maybe he would, because he has accepted her for who she is, for what she is. He never treated her like a whore like everyone else did...Please say you would...

[Guest]

Sashura and Anastasiya continued dancing, and then she made a surprising comment that made his eyes widen, and even made his heart, which he never knew he had, start to beat faster. She had told him that she would marry him, if he wasn't 'joking'. A light smile took to his face, and suddenly she became sad, asking him if he would marry her, even after she killed off all her previous husbands. She was basically asking him if he trusted her, which he could not answer at first. After what he did to his father, after he was already so mentally ill, could he truly trust anybody This world was cruel towards him, and those who he mistaked for friends, ended up leaving him in the end... But could he place all the blame on everyone else? He thought for a while, remaining silent when she asked him the first dance, continuing their waltz in the timeless purity of snow.

Suddenly, Anastasiya stopped dancing, and looked up at him with those crimson eyes, ever so gentle and warming... She asked him a second time if he would marry her, despite the evil actions of her past... Those bones in her closet, would he be able to see pass them? He didn't know the answer, but he knew one thing for sure: He would try as hard as he could to make it happen. He smiled warmly and kissed her cheek before embracing her gently.

"Of course I would, I trust you, just as you trust me, right?"

[Guest]

She hugged back, feeling his warmth against her body. It sudden got really cold for some reason, even with his jacket on. Anastasiya closed her eyes and smiled sadly, glad that he trusted her though she did not deserve it. Still, she did not voice out as such.
"Let's go back inside, it's getting cold.." Anastasiya said with a smile, though the smile did not completely glow in her face. She gave back his jacket, wrapped her arm around his and started to walk back to Fort briggs. Anastasiya kissed his cheek lightly and leaned her head on his shoulder.
"I suppose you have to go now right? My break is nearly over..So much to do, so little time..." She said with a giggle as they walked back inside the icy hallways. Anastasiya started listing down the many things she still had to do but that jest of a marriage proposal was on her mind also. Anastasiya knew he wasn't joking, he just wasn't ready yet...

[Guest]

Sashura nodded and lead her back inside the building, her arm wrapped around his. Those same stares came back unto them as many officers wondered what was going on. Some were thinking that maybe he was possibly a god to have her so... Sweet around him. They were still surprised she even had a lover after seeing that man hanging on the tree... Poor fellow. Sashura simply laughed when she kissed his cheek, and shook his head lightly when she asked if he had to make his leave. Of course, he did, however, he didn't feel like working on diplomatic issues right now... They were over working him, he may have the emotions of a robot, but, unless they intend to experiment on him, he does have a limit to how much paper work he wants and can do. He sighed lightly and simply kissed her lightly before letting a warm smile take place on his face.

"Maybe after one more date... I'll propose then. Hmhm..."

Sashura bowed slightly and kissed her hand and gave her a soft hug before he agreed to walk her back to her office. The walk, however short it was, was a nice one, for he still got to spend a little more time with Anastasiya. He sighed happily when they arrived at the office and gave her a light kiss on the cheek before he put his jacket back on and buttoned it up.

"I'll be leaving first. I hope to see you again soon, honey."

He bowed again before he walked off, waving for a second and making his way out the building and into the snow... Time to get back to work.

[Guest]

"Consider ourselves already engaged.." Anastasiya said with a low voice and smile. She accepted his kiss on the cheek but wanted a kiss on the lip. Anastasiya did not want to look clingly so she stood there in her office, trying to look happy. Inside, she was abit disappointed. She wanted him to propose.
Anastasiya stood outside her office door and waved to him, trying to smile. But after he was out of sight, her expression turned into a sad one. If only he proposed...Maybe not..She simply sighed and went inside her office, slumped onto her chair and started working on her paperwork absent mindedly.
Among the papers were the invitation to the Christmas party. She wasn't particulary in a festive mood but it would help to lift her spirits abit..A few drinks here and there would be nice...Letting herself go....
"Even if we don't get married, I still have that wretched thing called money and a job." Anastasiya said with a sigh..
