Summary: When Aoi is gone, Uruha tries to move on.

Uruha rolled over in the sheets and turned away. He couldn't look at him, no, not without thinking of Aoi. Uruha gripped his sheets tightly as the memories of him kept flooding back. He felt like he was betraying Aoi for wanting to forget and move on. But at the same time, Uruha didn't want to.

He remembered the way Aoi always made him laugh.

Uruha fumbled with the keys at the door to their tiny flat.
"Jesus Christ, don't tell me I left them at the office again!!"
Uruha frowned and swore under his breath. He worked as one of the receptionists for a large banking company. One of the worst parts of his job was getting hit on all the time by most of his bosses, due to his appearance. Today proved to be a bad day; losing his keys made things worse.
"Fuck..." Uruha swore again.
Suddenly, the door swung open. A huge cloud of smoke floated through the open door. Uruha coughed and waved his arms around, trying to clear the air. When the smoke disappeared, a blackened and burnt Aoi stood at the door, wearing oven mitts and Uruha's frilly, floral apron. Uruha gaped at him, too shocked to respond. But then Aoi gestured to their kitchen table, where (very messily!) dinner was set, with burnt steak, spaghetti that looked undercooked and potatoes too charred to be recognizable.
"I had the day off, you see. So I tried making dinner."
Uruha noticed the burning candles placed in the middle of the table. Lighting the candles with his lighter was the only thing Aoi did correctly.
A smile tugged at the corners of Uruha's mouth.
"I know I can't cook, but I know you hate Wednesdays, so I decided to cook tonight."
Uruha started to laugh.
"What? What's wrong with it? Don't you like it?"
Uruha looked at Aoi, whose face was covered in soot and sweat. His frilly apron was destroyed, having caught on fire earlier. Uruha laughed even harder and hugged Aoi tightly before kissing him on the lips.
"I love it."

Uruha smiled slightly at the memory as tears streamed down his face and onto the pillows. Aoi wasn't here anymore. And he will never be here to make him laugh again.

Aoi coughed some more. Uruha looked up from his book in concern.
"Hey, don't mind me. I'm okay."
"Be quiet. You're sick. You're not going to be okay. You have lung cancer and you are not going to be okay. Please explain to me how you are going to be okay, Aoi. You can't. Because you are not going to be okay." Uruha choked.
The hospital room was silent except for Uruha's sobs.
"Uruha, come here."
Uruha looked at Aoi, his beloved Aoi, confined to a hospital bed. He looked at his pale face and his once glittering eyes, sparkling with mischief. He looked at his dull hair, the hair he used to run his hands through all the time. He got up from his chair and climbed onto the bed to join Aoi.
Uruha rested his head onto Aoi's shoulder. He felt Aoi's hands, now so weak, gently tuck some of his honey blond hair behind his ear.
"Hey Uru?"
"Mmhmm?"
"When I'm gone,"
"Don't say that."
"When I'm gone," Aoi continued steadily. "I don't want you mourning me, okay? I want you to be happy. Be happy I'm no longer in pain. And move on."
"I told you not to say that!" Uruha hissed, eyes slanting in fury. He balled up his fists in anger and sat up to glare at Aoi. But Aoi just hugged Uruha close to him. He knew Uruha would react like this. He stroked Uruha's shoulder softly as he felt Uruha's heavy, ragged breathing from trying to control the tears.
"There's plenty of fish in the sea," Aoi murmured softly into Uruha's ear before dozing off.

Uruha bit his lip to keep from waking him up. But he felt like he was going to burst. He never got over Aoi. The man sleeping next to him knew that, but wanted Uruha anyway. Uruha felt guilty and ashamed. Uruha knew he could never love him as much as he loved Aoi. And he felt even more ashamed as he kept giving him false hope that one day he may.

Half a year after Aoi's death, Uruha started to care about himself again. He started to take care of his appearance once more, and no longer dressed in sweatpants and hoodies. He also started to go to work again. It was there that he met him.
He was tall, dark and handsome, like Aoi was. He also had a charm about him that intrigued Uruha. They started dating.
Two months later, Uruha spent the night at his place.
"I wanna hear you cum for me, Uruha. Can you do that for me?" He asked, licking and sucking on Uruha's neck as he kept thrusting into him. Uruha moaned, eyes closed, as he felt his approaching peak. He nodded. He suddenly screamed as he felt him thrust onto his sweet spot.
"AHH! Ahhhh! Ohhh, Aoi..." Uruha 's fingernails dug into the man's shoulders.
He stopped his thrusting.
"What did you say?"
Uruha opened his eyes in horror as he realized what he just did.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I just thought, I just--I don't know, I--"
Uruha looked into his eyes. They were filled with hurt, disappointment and pain.
"It's okay," he pulled out and lay down next to Uruha.
"I'm sorry," Uruha whispered.
"It's okay," he said again. "I knew what I was getting myself into."
He then turned over.

Uruha stole a glance at the sleeping figure next to him. Despite Aoi's wishes, Uruha felt himself longing for him, and wishing he were still here. He wanted this hurt to stop and he wanted to stop hurting others. Uruha hated himself. He was a selfish bastard who didn't deserve the love he kept receiving. He hated how whenever he kissed him, he could only taste Aoi. He hated how whenever he looked at him, he would long with all his heart to be staring into Aoi's twinkling eyes. He wanted so much to look into those eyes again. He felt the tears again and couldn't hold them back this time.
"I'm sorry, Aoi... I can't. I can't move on." Uruha whispered.
They rolled down his cheeks and he started to sob. But these sobs weren't the soft, self-pitying sobs they had once been. These cries were unrestrained, deep and full of pain. They wrenched at Uruha's heart and he turned towards his surrogate lover for comfort. He awoke in surprise, hope filling him like water gushing out of a broken dam as he thought Uruha was opening up to him at last. Once he felt the tears on his neck however, his heart sank. He tried to calm Uruha down, but all Uruha could do was cry hysterically.
"I can't... I can't...."

Title: Windows
Rating: NC-17 (for adult situations!)
Pairings: Reita x Ruki, mentioned Kai x Miyavi
Genre: Humour, Crack
Warnings: REITUKI PORN :O
Summary: Aoi wants to buy a new apartment... But the windows reveal more than expected!

Aoi, Uruha, Reita and Ruki were all seated comfortably in Ruki and Uruha's apartment, watching TV, when Kai opened the door and burst in excitedly with news.

"The apartment! The...apartment! Across! He's selling!" Kai wheezed, gasping for air. He had rushed across the building as soon as he heard.
Aoi immediately stood up. He had been interested in a new apartment for weeks, and this bit of news intrigued him.

"Hey! This is so great! Aoi, haven't you been looking for a new place?" Ruki asked. Aoi nodded.

Uruha smiled. "Aoi! It would be so great if you lived in that apartment! Then we could all live in one building!"

"And we wouldn't have to see Naked Ugly Guy every time we come over." Reita pointed out.

Naked Ugly Guy was what the group called the man who lived in that current apartment. Uruha and Ruki's main apartment window faced his. Unfortunately for Ruki and Uruha (and whoever decided to sit in their living room that day) Naked Ugly Guy liked to walk around, well, stark naked. Especially in front of the huge windows that the small apartments were known for having. Normally, this would have been okay with everybody. But...Naked Ugly Guy was well...not the most attractive person.

In fact, he was downright ugly. Hence his name. (Unless of course, jungle-like armpits with potbellies were your thing.)

Kai shuddered. "I came over as soon as the guy said he was selling. You'd better check it out in a hurry though, competition's pretty stiff." Kai and Reita, who lived in the apartment down the hall, were all too familiar with the landlord's acceptance of briberies. "Sugizo-san likes chocolates, gift cards and anything from Ralph Lauren." Kai recited the list, trying to think of anything he missed.

"I'll keep that in mind. Now, if you guys don't mind, I'm going to check it out! See if I actually like the place first, you know?" Aoi, being logical, always read the fine print. Being a law student he was, he had to. Uruha and Kai immediately followed him. Being the gossips they were, they had to.

As they walked down the hall and turned a corner, Aoi expressed his concerns about having to disinfect the walls once Naked Ugly Guy moved out. They opened the door and saw the landlord talking with a woman holding a baby.

"Naked? NAKED?" The woman's eyes stretched wide open and she held onto her baby tighter. "It's alright then, I'll keep looking." She then walked out. Sugizo-san shrugged and watched her walk off before starting on Aoi.

"Hi! Would you happen to be interested in this apartment? Your rent is due next week, by the way," Sugizo-san added to Uruha.

"You're in luck, the wandering-around-naked thing probably turned so many people off this place! You might even get it cheaper if you play your cards right!" Kai whispered excitedly to Aoi, who grinned.

"Yeah, I'm interested!"

"Okay then! Let me show you around! And you two," he turned to Kai and Uruha as he led Aoi to the kitchen area, "don't do anything stupid."

Uruha rolled his eyes and Kai let out a sigh through his nose. As soon as Sugizo-san was out of sight, they ran towards the big window. "Maybe Reita and Ruki will see us!" Uruha exclaimed.

"HEY! We could have like a can-telephone thingie! You know those? Then we can talk to Aoi, and he can talk to us! The string can just go through our windows! We'll be so connected!"

Uruha snorted. "Okay, Kai. HEY RUKI! REITA! CAN YOU HEAR US?" He yelled.

Kai jumped up and down. They could clearly see Ruki and Reita, only they didn't seem to notice the waving, flapping creatures in Naked Ugly Guy's apartment.

"They can't hear us!" Kai wailed.

"What could they be doing that's more important than this?" Uruha wondered out loud. "HEYYYY---oh my god." Uruha's arms stopped waving around and dropped loosely to his sides.

"What is Reita doing? WHAT IS REITA DOING?" Kai clapped his hands over his mouth in horror as the two watched Reita snake his hands up Ruki's shirt, all the while kissing him deeply and passionately.

"AH!" Uruha covered his eyes as Ruki started to unbuckle his jeans.

"AH!" Kai watched through his fingers as Reita lovingly laid Ruki down on the couch.

"What's going on here?" Sugizo-san came back. Aoi trailed behind him, looking very much like he was about to accept Sugizo's offer.

"AH!" Uruha and Kai jumped and ran out of Naked Ugly Guy's apartment, covering their eyes.

"Well, that was certainly strange!" Aoi said, watching them stumble out and yell in unison.

"Stranger things have happened," Sugizo remarked. "Okay, so if you just sign here and here and make a deposit of $650 by next week, the place is yours!"

"Great!" Aoi smiled, and the two men looked over and discussed the papers, with their backs away from the windows, not knowing that two naked men in the apartment across were making love furiously on a couch.

A Month Later...

Aoi leaned back on his black sofa with a glass of wine and sighed with satisfaction. The place was really starting to feel like home! He looked over a magazine and listened to some classical music. He had some time alone. Ruki and Reita were out, Uruha was at work and Kai was staying over at his boyfriend Miyavi's.

It was unusual for him to be so relaxed. Usually, he would have a term paper or an essay due the next day or so, but everything was done. Aoi finally had some time for himself. He decided to indulge in some stargazing, which he loved doing before he became so busy. He set up his telescope and pulled back the thick, red curtains he had installed, after much insisting from Uruha.

What Aoi saw next would scar him for the rest of his life.

On the floor of Ruki and Uruha's apartment lay Reita, being straddled by Ruki. Ruki looked like he was in heaven, with his eyes closed, impaling himself onto Reita's erection. Reita had his eyes glued onto Ruki's face, as if he couldn't get enough of the image. They were both completely naked, illuminated by the moonlight.

"Ah! AHH! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Aoi dropped the wineglass he was holding and ran to the washroom to somehow clear the picture of his two friends doing each other out of his mind.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

A/N: Inspired ~~(OKAY, FINE! taken from)~~ a Friends' episode: "The One Where Everybody Finds Out"
POOR AOI! Imagine seeing that in the middle of the night! Some of you wouldn't mind...PERVS!

I leaned into him and opened my mouth to let his tongue in.
It was warm and familiar, and I wrapped my arms around his neck to bring him closer to me.
Rei pulled me onto his lap in one fluid motion, never once breaking the kiss.
I could feel myself starting to need air, but I really didn't want to end this.
I felt him run his large hand through my hair.
(I was so glad I decided to wash it this morning...even though I was almost late for school! >___<)
It made its way through my hair, coming to a rest on my cheek.
Then Reita pulled away.
"Ru..."
He murmured as he cupped my cheek, looking deeply into my eyes.
"Rei..."
I breathed back.
I took both my hands and took his face, planting a peck as lightly as possible on his lips.
Then I rested on his chest, listening to his heartbeat.
He wrapped his arms around me.
"I've been thinking..." he said.
I closed my eyes and cuddled him, breathing in his scent.
"About what?"
"You know, Aoi has a basketball game coming up."
My eyes opened and I leaned back onto my pillow to look at him with wide eyes.
Here we were at my house, making out,
AND ALL HE COULD THINK ABOUT WAS AOI'S BASKETBALL GAME??!?
I pouted and crossed my arms.
He took the hint.
"Hey, Ru, don't get mad!! Please?"
He hugged me close to him again.
"It's just...this whole situation! I know I won't be able to rest peacefully until I know that Uruha and Aoi are together. Hahaha. And I have the perfect plan."
I looked at him wearily.
Another perfect plan?
Reita looked at me.
He seemed to know what I was thinking.
"I know what you're thinking!"
He said hurriedly.
"But this one is gonna work out!
See, we'll just bring Uruha to the game, then he'll see Aoi!
See where I'm going with this? So yeah! He'll see Aoi
THEN!
They will fall in love. Love at first sight!
Brilliant!"
He looked pretty pleased with himself.
I gotta admit, it was a pretty good plan!
"Sounds like it will work," I started.
"I know right??"
"But..."
"But what?"
"Could we get back to where we left off?"
"Ohhhhhhh. I see."

~Aoi~

I'm letting the stress get to me.
Shit.
This isn't good.
Last week's practise, I was supposed to meet Reita at this place afterschool.
I had to miss it.
I knew we were playing worse and worse ever since Tora broke up with his girlfriend.
Because he was playing worse, so were we.
He was one of our star players.
SHIT.
I'm scared for the next game.
We were facing K. R. A. Secondary soon.
Their team is beyond amazing,
and they beat us last year.
We finished second in the whole region.
We came so close to first.
The game is in eight days and we are nowhere near ready.
"FUCK!"
Ni-ya screamed as the ball missed the net for the fourth time.
I felt like screaming too.
Coach whistled for a time-out.
"Listen, guys, I know it's hard. But we all have to keep trying our hardest.
Right now, we are going to get murked if we continue on like this."
Yomi, captain of our team, was desperate.
Like me, it was his last year at Purinsu.
But he (unlike me) was riding on hopes of getting a scholarship into an athletic school.
We all nodded, too tired and too frustrated to say anything else.
Tora punched the wall in anger.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?"
Yomi yelled.
"YOU'RE GOING TO INJURE YOURSELF LIKE THAT!!
THINK ABOUT THE TEAM BEFORE YOU DO SOMETHING THAT COULD JEOPARDIZE US!
STOP BEING SO SELFISH!!"
Tora turned to Yomi, livid.
"All you can care about is the team!
If I want to break my knuckles, I'll break my knuckles.
You're not going to keep telling us what to do!
And as for me being selfish?
Look at you!
You don't care about us, you just want that fucking scholarship!"
Yomi looked like he was about to rip Tora apart.
Before he leaped onto Tora, I jumped up and pulled him back.
Tora was about to fight back.
Luckily, Satoshi followed my suit and held Tora far away from Yomi.
They both struggled in our grasps, trying to get at each other.
"Guys! Stop it! If we can't work together, we're not a team!
We're not gonna be able to do this!!"
The rest of the team nodded in agreement with me.
Yomi broke away from my hold, turning his back from us.
He was breathing heavily and looked ashamed.
Tora stopped struggling and had his eyes to the ground.
"Are we gonna do this or not?"
I looked around the team, begging them with my eyes to get back to being a team again.
"Yes!!!"
The team said.
"ARE WE GONNA DO THIS OR NOT?"
I yelled.
"HELL FUCKING YES!"
Yomi punched Tora lightly on the shoulder.
Tora punched him back, and they exchanged a clap on the shoulder.
We grinned at each other.
We're going to die trying, but this time,
we're gonna kick their asses.

~Uruha~

Grandpa had a heart attack the other day.
He's in the hospital now.
So after school, I go straight there to see if he's okay or it Grandma needs anything.
Usually, I try to take care of Grandma as much as I can.
Grandpa's okay, he just needs to rest up.
Grandma's having all these doctors check up on him.
She never leaves his side.
What I always do is buy food for her, though.
They bought me a car recently, so I use that to drive to this cafe she likes.
I used to go to the cafeteria the hospital offered, but the creepy server kept trying to get my number.
I avoid going there as much as possible.
Creepy.
Sometimes, I walk around the hospital, exploring a bit.
I see these other people in even worse conditions.
It's a sobering experience.
I don't know...
I guess this whole thing is making me grow up.
I'm really starting to see that everything does NOT revolve around me.
I'm trying to be a better person,
someone Grandma and Grandpa can be proud of.
When he first got the heart attack,
I felt my heart drop down to my stomach.
If he died...
He would have died only knowing what a dumb slutty brat I am.
I really want them to know that I'm growing up.
I really want them to know that they can rely on me.
They're old,
They can't do much.
I'll do what I can for them.
Once in a while, someone comes along and loves you unconditionally.
Those would be my grandparents.
And I love them too, I now fully realize.
I just want them to know that.

A/N: hey guys. i know this chapter's kinda blergh.
their situations will get better, i promise!
and it will get MORE interesting!
I PROMISE!!
comments are love!

~Uruha~

Public displays of affection are fine with me.
But only when the feeling between the two people are mutual.
Which is why I sucker-punched that loser right in the face when he grabbed my ass and said,
"Hey baby, nice ass. Wanna fuck?"
In case you couldn't tell...
The feeling wasn't mutual.
I know what you're thinking.
"Awwww! Is the little creeper-dude okay?"
OF COURSE HE IS.
I probably didn't even make a difference to that asshole's excuse of a face.
He's a senior too.
In my personal opinion, if he can find time to go grab this bitch's booty,
he can find time to lose a few teeth in the process.
Sadly for me, this way of thinking landed me detention, after school.
DAMN!
And Ruki wanted to meet up for something too!
Pancakes...or something...
Hell, I'm not missing it.
Kai, now that his relationship with Miyavi is on the rocks, has been on my back,
to make sure that Ruki eats.
Sure the kid eats!
Just not all the time!
Actually...
I've never seen him eat!
Wow, am I ever clueless.
Then after detention, I'm gonna go home and see if Grandpa is okay.
His heart's been kinda trouble for him lately...
So I don't wanna worry him and Grandma by coming home so late anymore.
'Cause honestly, they're the only people that love me on this earth.
Without them, I have nobody but myself.
So screw detention, I'm not going!
Ha ha ha.
What a joke.
I never go anyway.

~Miyavi~

I took another drag and then crushed it on my ashtray irritably.
He always hated it when I smoked.
The clock ticked but other than that,
the rest of my apartment was silent.
It's Friday.
He'd usually spend his Fridays here.
Maybe we'd cook dinner, watch a movie or just do whatever.
He's not here today though.
It was something I said.
He loves it there at Purinsu.
In English, Purinsu means "prince".
The whole damned school is for kids who are used to being treated like royalty.
And that's when it hit me.
I'm in love with what I despise.
Those rich kids,
those kids who have everything already planned out for them.
Those kids who probably won't have to work a day in their scheduled, perfect lives.
I stared into the darkness, thinking about it.
I didn't even realize how dark it got.
It made me wonder what he was doing now.
Probably at home, finishing dinner.
His dad's probably working late tonight, so he's spending it with his pregnant mom.
I like his mom, she doesn't judge me.
I sigh.
What was wrong with me.
Why did I have to fall for him?
His life,
his perfect life would be better off without a guy like me.
I'm a good person yeah,
but I know he's not going to be 100% comfortable and satisfied living with me.
Maybe I made a mistake.
Maybe we should end things.
I sigh again and wipe away the tear on my face that I didn't know existed.
But I
I..
I love him.
And I don't want to let him go....

~Reita~

Knowing how to accomplish two things at once is a great skill to have.
Therefore, this means that Ruki and I are greatly skilled in this area.
Our plan was to have him and I call Uruha and Aoi respectively to come to this new crepe place.
It's pretty close actually,
down the street of Purinsu was on.
Ru and I wanted to try it ever since it opened actually,
but this situation seems like a good opportunity to hook Aoi and Uruha up.
So the day before, Ruki reserved a table for four at Mickie's (that's what the place is named)
and while we eat, Aoi and Uruha will FALL MADLY IN LOVE.
It will work out greatly.
You know that feeling?
That feeling when you know something beautiful is going to happen?
That feeling deep inside your stomach,
almost like an ache,
anticipating the joy to come?
That's how I feel right now.
I really, really should be paying attention to what Ohara-san is saying.
But really, who the fuck cares about math when something beautiful is about to happen?
=)
Nothing better screw this up.
I will be heartbroken.
I mean, Ruki will be heartbroken.
Yes.
And we don't want Ruki to be heartbroken!
That's for sure!
Which is why when we (Ruki and me, mostly) seated at Mickie's, I was really nervous.
I kept fidgeting.
4:00.
School got off half an hour ago!
BUT WHERE WAS AOI?
IT'S NOT LIKE HIM TO BE LATE!
"Hey...Rei? Calm down, you're hyperventilating again."
I snapped back and looked at Ruki, who was looking at the shredded sugar packets in my lap.
Uruha looked at us.
"Umm...You guys waiting for somebody or something?"
Ruki looked at me.
I looked at him.
Then a heart-sinking realization hit me.
Aoi was at basketball practise.
He left his phone at home probably, which is why he couldn't tell me.
He wouldn't miss practise for the world.
He was not going to come.
We took the menus from the smiling waitress.
"No, let's order."
I heard myself say this,
but couldn't help feeling so much disappointment as I watched Ruki examine Uruha's delicate face.
He was right.
Under that makeup,
under that stunning face,
was just this vulnerable guy..
that just wanted love and affection.
I squeezed Ruki's hand,
and when he squeezed back,
I knew we failed Uruha.

<<REWIND

A/N: Hiatus? WHAT HIATUS ?? D=
hahaha i'm honestly and truly, madly, deeply sorry everybody! But i'm back!.

The Future Not Promised Chpt. Twenty + EPILOGUE

2008-07-27T22:27:13Z

Chapter Twenty: Party Crasher

Previously

It was almost as if Midori never came into their lives. Aoi wanted to make it quite clear that he never loved Midori; it was merely a fling for him. Though he was often at work, he let Uruha know that he was loved by surprising him with many gifts. Soon, Uruha and Aoi's bedroom was filled with roses, candy and clothes.
Uruha, however, was too pregnant to enjoy these things as he normally would. Now in his ninth month of pregnancy, he just wanted the baby out. He would lay on his bed, too uncomfortable to do anything really and feel the baby toss, turn and kick.
Uruha sniffled unhappily as he rubbed his swollen tummy. He stopped going shopping as well due to an incident concerning a suspicious manager. Apparently, a store manager thought Uruha was trying to smuggle a basketball out of the store. Uruha, who was already self-conscious, burst into an emotional fit and refused to go out until the baby was out.
Ruki popped his head into the bedroom. "Uruha?" Ruki gingerly whispered.
"I wanna die, Ru. Get this freaking thing OUT of me!" Uruha wailed. "I wanna die, I wanna die, I wanna die! I feel fat and fugly and--"
"NO! Stop it! If YOU'RE fat, like, now, I'll be, like a WHALE once I reach my ninth month!" Ruki realized with shock. He rubbed at his face, nearly knocking over a vase of roses. "HOLY CRAPOLA!"
Uruha tried to sit up but fell back down on the bed with an unhappy plop. "You're not gonna be fat! And I'm already a whale! Two whales! FIVE HUNDRED PREGNANT WHALES!"
Ruki stumbled over and tried to pull Uruha up. "Damn you, Reita!" He said with tears in his eyes and drama in his voice.
Uruha reached over to his bedside table. "Chocolate?" He offered sobbingly, holding up one of the many heart-shaped box full of bonbons.
Ruki nodded. "Thank you," he cried, tears streaming down his cheeks. He nibbled into it. "I hate coconut!" He handed the bitten candy back to the bawling Uruha.
"I can't EAT chocolate! I'll grow even fatter!" exclaimed Uruha.
"Uruha, darling! What's wrong, baby?" Uruha's mother stepped into the bedroom. "Oh my Lord! Aki, come look at this!"
"Ru, you brought my mom?!" Uruha asked through his tears.
Ruki sniffled and gulped before nodding. "Th-They brought your sisters."
Sayuri stuck her head in. She resembled Uruha somewhat, but was taller and looked more like Uruha's father.
"Uruha, stop crying! You were fat before so don't worry!" Uruha cried even harder.
"Sayuri!" Aya gave Uruha's older sister a look before sitting on the bed to comfort the very pregnant and very upset Uruha. Sayuri pouted and let her five-year-old son into the room to see Uruha. He looked at Uruha and toddled up to touch his bump.
"Hideki, there's a baby in there," Uruha's mother said, patting Hideki's little head.
"But, daddy told me babies come from Big Bird!"
"Big Bird?"
"No," Sayuri said, "Daddy meant the stork, which IS a big bird, not actually Big Bird himself!"
"Thank gosh," Aya muttered. "Big Bird looks like a pedophile, if you ask me!"
"Mom! Hideki loves Big Bird!"
"Ohhhh! Sorry, darling! I'm sure Big Bird is wonderful! Perfectly wonderful!"
Ruki rolled his eyes. "I'm SO not letting MY baby watch Sesame Street. I'm changing it to, like, the fashion channel so it can have good, like, fashion sense when he or she is older!"
"Oh Ruki, you're pregnant?" Sayuri eyed his flat stomach. "I never would have guessed! You're still so skinny!"
"That's 'cause you're comparing him to ME!" Uruha buried his face into his mother's shoulder. She patted him comfortingly.
"How come you guys are here?" Uruha finally asked when he calmed down.
"My son is in his ninth month of pregnancy! You don't get to say that every day, now do you. I wouldn't miss this for the world!"
Uruha sniffled slightly again and allowed himself to be coaxed into the rented convertible for a day of shopping.

~

"Any idea on the gender?" Ruki had a sudden spending urge and the both of them decided to ditch Reita with his son and go downtown for a day of shopping.
"Nope," Uruha said, tossing a little yellow knit hat into the wicker basket he was holding. They were in a gorgeous baby store stocked with more couture clothing and maternity clothes. The only problem was that Uruha already bought a closet full of as much cute, little baby clothes as he could get his pregnant hands on.
"Sweetie, do you REALLY need that? I mean, come on," Ruki said, looking at the hat.
"YES!" Uruha said defensively. "Look! They even have little feather boas!"
"Holy crap, we have to totally get those," Ruki said, grabbing a fistful of the racks.
Uruha looked up. "What if my baby's a boy?"
"Mine's not gonna be."
"How do you know?"
"'Cause I'm TELLING it, like, not to be! Duh!" Ruki cleared his throat. He closed his eyes and started humming and rubbing his hands all over his flat abdomen. He started to turn his head all around and threw his hands up in the air. He jumped in the air a few times and did a pirouette. He took a deep breath and stretched towards the ceiling. Uruha stared at him.
"What the hell, Ruki."
"WHAT? That's my secret ritual for having a girl. Plus I've been eating nothing but, like, chocolate. I heard that, like, sweet craving leads to girls," Ruki looked pleased with himself. In the corner of Uruha's eye, he could see his sisters watching Ruki do his ritual in weirded-out silence. They scuttled out once Ruki was done.
"NO! I've been eating pickles all the time! And cheese! And cheesecake! Is cheesecake considered sweet?" Uruha gathered up their items and headed towards the cashier.
Ruki shrugged. "Iunno, but all I know is that I'm gonna swell up like a balloon. Stupid horny Reita. I wish that, like, he was the one pregnant." He handed his debit card to the young woman at the counter.
Uruha giggled. "I think he wishes he was the pregnant one too. I heard you waking him up last night at 4AM to get you chocolate."
Ruki grinned deviously. "Well, if I'm gonna have to get fat and pregnant, I might as well, like, make the most of it, am I right?" He signed the receipt before adding offhandedly, "Oh, and Kai wants to throw like some kinda random party for the twins. To celebrate them being alive or something."
"He didn't tell me anything about it! Maybe he's avoiding me... Ruki, is Kai avoiding me?"
"Calm your hormones, child. Geeeeez, he didn't say anything to you because like he's only CONSIDERING it. Got it, baby? And like he doesn't want you to become all hormonal and emotional or anything."
Uruha pouted, picking up the shopping bags.
"I am NOT emotional! I can prove it! Why would anyone say that? I'm pregnant!! Not, not HANDICAPPED!" Uruha's eyes filled up with tears.
"Whoaaa. Are you CRYING?"
"Am not!" Uruha turned around and wiped his eyes. Ruki sighed and rolled his eyes as they climbed into the car.
"How about we surprise Kai then? Like, throw a surprise party and he totally doesn't even have to do anything! He's already, like, pretty busy with the twins."
"Oooh! That's a great idea! We could hire a clown and everything!"
"But I thought that clowns scare the shit out of you."
"Right. My gosh, Ruki, drive slower! The police are onto us."
"FINE. Anywho, I totally have the perfect place for the par-TAY."
"WHERE?"
"This place called Fantasize." Ruki reached into his bag and pulled out a bright shiny pamphlet, nearly swerving into the large SUV in the lane beside theirs. "It's so totally fab. They have, like, fourteen bars. Their drink specialty is this custom designed one called the Neon Cyclone. It's got tequila and everything. I tried the neon pink one before and it is sooo totally--" Ruki stopped when he saw the look on Uruha's face.
"What?"
"RUKI! This party is for FIVE MONTH YEAR OLDS!"
"Oooh. Heh heh. Right." Ruki pulled up into the driveway. Uruha got out of the car gingerly, still holding onto his swollen tummy.
"Let's rent a nice banquet hall? Like one of those with the modern-decor... Oooh, with a balcony too!"
"Awesome idea.. I hope that baby of yours will stay inside you until that party is over."
"I hope so too. But it's so annoying! I have to lug this thing around. And worst of all, I can't even take it off. AND IT KICKS! I can feel it moving around me. I HATE BEING PREGNANT! And worst of all...I don't think Aoi finds me.." He and Ruki paused at the front door.
"What."
Uruha hung his head.
"I don't think Aoi finds me sexy anymore..."
"You silly kid. Of course he TOTALLY does!"
"Really?"
"Yeah! Like, just last night. I heard him. 'Uruha is so totally sexy, I love the way he's so hot and like everything. I totally wanna sex him up because he's too sexy and hot and sexy. I hope that baby, like, comes out soon so I can make, like, another one with him. God, that man is so goddamn fuckable.'" Ruki imitated Aoi's deep voice unconvincingly and opened the door to get in. Uruha laughed anyway.
"He did NOT, Ruki!' But Uruha felt better. They placed the bags onto Uruha's bed.
"Anywho, I love being pregnant... The sex is SO MUCH better! I'm, like, all sensitive and when Reita tou--"
"OKAY! TOOO MUCH INFORMATION!"
"Psshh. You know you like it. Speaking of which... Where IS Reita? REITA? REITA!"
The two listened in silence as Reita walked up the stairs.
"Yes?" Reita asked exasperatedly when he reached Uruha's room's doorway. Rei was in his arms and Reita's face was covered in tomato sauce.
"Daddy's yummy!" Rei crowed. Reita patted his head and grimaced.
"Mmm, I agree," Ruki said, pecking Reita's cheek.
"Please, get a room," Uruha said, covering his eyes.
"Be that way," Ruki stuck his tongue out at Uruha, who yawned.
"You're gonna take care of the plans right?" Uruha rubbed his eyes.
"Yeah, I'm probably gonna like, force your sisters to help me too."
"Mmm, I see."
"Wanna take a nap?"
"Yeah.."

~

When Uruha awoke, Aoi had come home and they decided to stay home for dinner, while Ruki and Reita went for a night out. Rei had made himself comfortable in Reita's old room. Everyone decided that the room was to made into Rei's whenever he stayed over.
Uruha was watching television on the bed with Aoi next to him, tapping away on his laptop.
"Aoi?"
"Hmm?" Aoi typed a few more words before stopping and turning to face Uruha.
Uruha leaned back onto his fat pillow.
"Do you ever think about the future?"
"All the time."
"What do you see?"
"You make me sound like a fortune teller."
"Ha, ha, funny. Oooh! Do you remember that time you told me you were psychic?"
"My God, not this again. It's so corny."
"I liked it. I honestly thought you could tell the future."
"You also believed in Lord of the Rings at that time. You were so cute when you were seventeen."
"WERE?"
"ARE! ARE! Are cute. Still are."
"Yeah, well. I really can't say the same for you." Uruha stuck his tongue out.
"Boohoo. My heart has been shattered into a million little pieces."
"Awww, I'm sorry."
"It's okay."
"But no. Seriously. What do you see in the future?"
Aoi looked at the ceiling, thinking.
"And I want an HONEST answer. Not what you want me to hear."
"Mmm. I see. A house. And the sunrise filling up a room. And a bed. With white sheets, and someone sleeping next to me." Uruha sat up a little more. "But the smoke detectors go off. This insane child downstairs is trying to make breakfast. But having unfortunately inherited bad cooking skills from my side of the family, the breakfast is burnt."
"Just..one kid?" Uruha pressed his finger slightly to his unborn child.
"We can change that."
"What colour was the hair?"
"My hair? White. I'm old. So old."
"You idiot!" Uruha laughed. "The person sleeping next to you."
"Not sure. You looked like an angel, that's what I saw."
"Aww, it was me?"
"Who else could it have been?" Aoi leaned in to kiss Uruha. Uruha smiled and lovingly met his lips to Aoi's. It was soft and gentle, and afterwards, Uruha leaned on Aoi's shoulder, feeling at one with the world and his child.
"The Shire's real, by the way."

~

Ruki really went all out. He hired waiters, got a gourmet chef to cater the whole event and somehow managed to get Reita and Miyavi to take time off and decorate the banquet hall.
"Wow," Aoi said when he walked in with Uruha. The hall was indeed magnificent. Gold streamers and shiny silver helium-filled balloons hung from every nook and cranny. A huge buffet was set up at the side of the room, with a huge white cake planted on the centre of the table. Two large men struggled to move a cotton candy machine. A hired professional photographer was setting up his equipment near the corner. Reita was asleep in a chair while Miyavi released the last of the balloons into the air. They floated up to the ceiling among the other balloons and streamers and stayed there. Ruki walked around with his glasses and a clipboard, ordering caterers around.
The light coming from the chandelier gave everything a soft glow.
Uruha looked around, trying to take this all in. It was as if this was all a dream.
"Let's have Ruki plan our baby's birthday party," Aoi whispered to Uruha, who nodded. His mouth was open in awe, still absorbing the whole fairy tale-like scene.
Miyavi kicked at Reita's head lightly to wake him up. Ruki was obviously very stressed out; his cheeks were flushed and he looked irritated. Reita was probably going to die a violent death should Ruki discover he was sleeping. Reita snorted and awoke with a start.
"Whahappen? I'm okay."
"Fag, the party's about to start and you're sleeping. Lawlz, Ruki's gonna chop off your nuts!" Miyavi giggled and pinned up the last streamer.
"Wow. That giggle wasn't gay at all, Miv. And who says "lawlz"?"
"That's not what your mom said last night!"
"Right."
"WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE , LIKE, USHERING PEOPLE IN! WHAT THE HELL. AM I THE ONLY RESPONSIBLE ONE HERE?" Ruki broke apart the conversation. His eyebrows were so furrowed, it looked like he had a unibrow.
"Okay, okay, calm down."
"I AM FUCKING CALM."
Miyavi and Reita started to run towards the doors to prepare to greet people.
Uruha and Aoi exchanged a glance. Maybe they shouldn't get Ruki to plan their baby's birthday party after all. Aoi excused himself to answer a call and Uruha was left alone with Ruki. Guests slowly started to trickle in, admiring openly at the decor. Uruha felt a contraction at his swollen belly and let out a squeek of horror. Not now!
Uruha could see a lot of guests. Nao came in with Shou and Saga. Hiroto carried large giftbags and Tora sprinkled confetti onto Kai, who was holding his babies. Kyo, the oft-heard-about cousin of Ruki's was growling at the corner of the buffet, daring anyone to come near. And of course, Shinya and Jui stumbled in, Shinya wordless and Jui full of laughter and feather-adorned. A man that Uruha only knew by name, Sakito, was dj-ing the event and Hitsugi was helping blow more balloons (some popped). Theresa was even there! Uruha wanted to go say hi. Today was a pretty big day... Uruha could even faintly make out Hard Gay! He could ruin the whole thing by going into labour. Crap.
"Uruha! Darling! You look marvelous!" Gackt entered the room and noticed Uruha. Crap!
"Okay, Uru. I know you think Gackt's a bit scary, but I had to invite him. Kai, like, wants the babies to have a whole bunch of, like, connections when they're older." Ruki whispered into Uruha's ear.
"Oh." Uruha winced in pain at his contraction, then winced again when he saw a whole pack of people (Gackt and his entourage) coming from across the banquet hall to embrace him.

"You okay?" Ruki asked worriedly.
"Fine." Uruha's voice was a bit strained, but he managed to get the words out. Baby...stay in there! At least until the party's over! Today was the twins' day to shine! Just..avoid people until this whole event was over!
"Ooooh, is that CHAMPAGNE?" Gackt, fortunately, was easily distracted. He made a sharp left turn in his path towards Uruha and his entourage followed. Uruha turned around and gave a sigh of relief.
"URUHA-SAMA!" Miyavi's cousin's prepubescent daughter was running towards him with a team of other girls. Uruha's tummy gave another painful contraction (due to fear?) and Uruha turned around again and tried to escape before any fangirl horror began.
"HE'S SO BEAUTIFUL! EVEN WHEN HE'S PREGNANT!"
"I WANNA GET A CHUNK OF HIS HAIR!"
"I WANNA GET TWO CHUNKS OF HIS HAIR!"
"YOU GREEDY BITCH! SAVE SOME FOR US!"
They all giggled hysterically.
Why? Who had to go and invite fangirls?
Just when it seemed like all hope was lost, Aoi came back and swept Uruha into his arms, away from the scary girls.
"Are you alright?"
Uruha had a feeling that his baby wasn't going to stay put, but he nodded anyway. Maybe if he just ignored the problem, it will go away.
"Let's go sit on the balcony. The air might do you some good." Uruha allowed himself to be led onto the balcony, where a few guests stood to enjoy the scenery. Uruha leaned against the railing and took a few shallow breaths. He definitely was NOT feeling well. Not even in the slightest. Aoi went towards the buffet to bring him something to eat.
"Hi Uruha!" Kai walked over and brought him a glass of water.
"Hey Kai. Where are the twins?"
"They're with Miyavi, greeting people. Anyway, what about you? Ruki said you weren't feeling well. What's wrong?"
"I don't know, my stomach, my thing! It's been hurting, I don't know what's happening! But it keeps coming back and it hurts and I wanna die!"
Kai turned pale. "Are you sure? Oh my God, it can only mean one thing!"
"What?"
But what it meant, Uruha never found out. The next thing he knew, there were screams coming from inside the banquet hall. Ruki tripped onto the balcony and looked frightened. The guests on the balcony tried to look inside the hall without getting too close. They all then looked at Ruki curiously, wondering what on earth happened inside.
"M-m-"
"Ruki, what happened?" Kai looked worried and anxious.
"M-m-"
"Are the twins okay?"
Ruki nodded, but his eyes were still the size of dinner plates.
"M-m-" He pointed inside the banquet hall.
The other guests circled in to hear what he had to say. Uruha heard some glass break inside the hall and some more screaming. Someone let out a huge "AI-YEE!" and Uruha was pretty that it was Theresa. Kai ran inside to find his babies and Miyavi and to make sure they were okay.
Ruki gazed deeply into Uruha's eyes. Uruha felt another huge contraction.
"Midori." Ruki whispered.
Uruha gasped. Ruki gasped. The other guests gasped.
Midori ran onto the balcony. "YOU." Uruha looked up at Midori in fear. Everyone gasped in unison. Ruki stood in front of Uruha in an attempt to protect him. Midori merely pushed him aside, as if he were just a rag doll. Ruki yelped in shock and fell to the floor. Uruha started to back away from Midori slowly, clutching at his lower abdomen. Midori had let herself go. Her once shiny, straight hair was straggly and messy. Her beautiful clothes were ripped, torn and stained. Her pretty, clear face was pale and lifeless. Uruha felt the sickening agony of another contraction. Everything HURT.
Only when he reached the railing that surrounded the balcony did he realized that there was no escaping the terror that was Midori. Everyone screamed and ran inside.
"You." She caught up to Uruha and came face-to-face with him. Uruha could feel her angry breath on his face. "You ruined everything I cared about. You stole my boyfriend. You wrecked my career. I know that the whole incident with my office had to do with you. And now, I am going to ruin you." Uruha's knees felt weak from pain as he felt his water burst. A puddle of fluid gathered at his feet. Ruki stood up and ran towards Uruha, trying to help him.
"Bye bye, Uruha." Midori said before pushing Uruha off the balcony.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Ruki screamed, trying to reach for Uruha, before he hit the ground from the three storey-building.
But Uruha didn't hear. All he heard was silence before he slipped into the wonderful unconciousness.

Epilogue.

I woke up and stretched out. AH! What on earth? There's some kinda lump on my bed. I sit up abruptly. Great. Tuki's passed out there again. She always does this. A week before exams too. Random-ass parties seem to be her thing. Oh, wait. Takumi's party! Right. He's a jerk, so I didn't go. I get up and try to shake her awake, before her parents find out where she was last night.
"Tuki, get up!" I whisper.
"Noooo. Lemme sleep. I'll pay...you..."
She's been drinking again. Her bleach-blond hair was covered with glitter and cake.
"Yo, why'd you even go to Takumi's party. He's a dick."
Tuki rolled over with the most retarded grin on her face. "I heard Jun was going to be there. He's so cute. I kissed him last night. I think he liked it."
"You got cake on my bedsheets!" Why couldn't she have passed out in her own bed? It's only a few steps away from mine!
"Crap, if Rei finds out--"
"I think he was out too."
"Oh good! Then I can share my parents' anger. I hate it when they're angry."
"TUKI! GET DOWN HERE, RIGHT NOW!!"
"Ah shit."
Tuki looked at Ryoko.
"I'm coming down with you."
"Really? Thanks! You were always my best friend!"
"To watch, dumbass. You think I'm missing this?"
Tuki groaned. I pushed her out of the room and down the stairs. In the kitchen, Uruha and Reita were sitting at the kitchen table eating breakfast and Ruki was pacing back and forth. Ruki's anger seemed overwhelmingly intense for a man of such short stature. It spilled out of him in forms of angry long, sentences no one could understand.
"How could you? What was even going on in your mind? In what drugged-up alley did you throw your common sense? I wasn't even like this as a kid!" Uruha and Reita exchanged glances then started laughing.
"HEY!" Ruki bellowed. "That is NOT helping the cause at all!"
"OKAY! OKAY! I'm sorry! I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry for sneaking out! But nothing happened really and Rei was there too!"
There was silence. Ruki and Reita both looked Tuki with looks of disbelief on their faces.
"WHAT?" They both said in unison.
I snickered. It was too funny.
Mom shot me a death glare. I stopped. But I knew I had this really goofy grin on my face from trying not to laugh.
"I was talking about finishing off the hot water for your hour long showers and, like, losing your phone, but this is SO news to me!"
"Yes, do go on." Reita added. Rei walked into the kitchen and sat down with a bowl of cereal. I swear, this guy looks exactly like his dad, only taller and with black hair.
Tuki gulped. "Can I just get my punishment now?" Rei froze.
"What punishment?" He asked.
Reita stood up and Ruki grinned. "I wouldn't call it a punishment." Tuki gave a huge sigh of relief.
"I would say, it's more of a life sentence." Reita put his hand on his daughter's shoulder and turned her in the direction of the hallway.
"TO YOUR ROOM." Reita and Ruki followed Tuki to our room to discuss the horrific details of her life sentence. Rei punched the air, thinking he was off the hook. "WE'RE DEALING WITH YOU LATER, REI."
"Damn." He slouched in his chair. He finished his cereal in two bites and dragged himself back to his room to mope.
Mom looked at me.
"Did you go to the party?" He asked me.
"Nope, but Tuki passed out on my bed!"
"That's beautiful." He shook his head. "You guys are only seventeen. Kids grow up so fast. Ughh, I feel so old."
"Whose old?" Dad came down into the kitchen, with his tie not done up yet. "I heard Ruki yelling again. So I figured I should come down when he wasn't here." He sat down with us at the table.
"Smart choice," Mom said, reaching over and doing up his tie.
"How's the little one?" Dad asked, patting his hand on Mom's rounded stomach.
"Kicking," He answered, laughing.
"Four months?"
"Yup."
I leave that scene, half wanting to leave them alone and half wanting to find out what happened to Ruki and Rei.

Uruha watched his daughter leave the kitchen. He looked at Aoi. He changed a bit over the past years. His black hair was cut shorter now and he took out his lipring and had gotten a nosestud. Uruha missed that lipring. He absentmindedly poked Aoi's hand for a bit.
"Penny for your thoughts?" Aoi said. Uruha laughed.
"Who says that anymore?" Aoi chuckled but looked at Uruha to go on. "Well, Ryo, she's growing up. Soon, she'll be moving out, starting a life on her own. Do you think she'll be okay? And this one," Uruha said, pointing at his current pregnancy. "Will this one be okay? Will we be okay? Will anyone be okay?"
Aoi leaned back on his chair. He thought about all the things they went though, together. Meeting each other, their parents, their own personal hardships. Midori. They were pretty okay.
"I'm pretty sure she'll be okay. But you never know right?"
"What do you mean?"
Aoi's eyes gazed meaningfully into Uruha's honey-coloured ones.
"The future's not promised."

THE END.

thank you so much, YOU ARE LIFE!
this is possibly the cutest thing you'll ever see.

BONUS!

Itoshii and Miyabi struggled. It was pretty hard. Girls can be strong, surprisingly. "ITOSHII! I LOVE YOU!" A girl reached out and touched him. "I TOUCHED HIM!" Itoshii and Miyabi, now sixteen, were surrounded by a pack of fangirls, outside of their school. Voted "Best-Looking of Year 3", girls were all trying to get them to fall in love with them.

"How'd we get ourselves into this mess?" Itoshii pushed up his black-framed glasses that were threatening to fall onto the ground and get fangirl-trampled. Itoshii was a nerd, but a good-looking one. His black hair was casually messy and his arms were muscled from carrying too many textbooks. And he could play guitar, which made the fangirls crazy.

"I have no idea, but I LIKE it!" Miyabi was a totally different story. His black hair was dyed a reddish brown, it was waxed and carefully dishevelled. Unlike Itoshii, Miyabi spent almost an hour on it before going out. He, too, was muscled but this was intentionally done. His abdominal muscles showed through his shirt and that, too, drove the fangirls wild.

Itoshii sighed and accepted his fate. They were waiting for their bus so they could go home after Miyabi's basketball practise, but the girls found them and attacked when they least expected it. He stood in silence while being hugged, kissed and pushed around mercilessly. Miyabi started to give out autographs. People on the street kept giving them funny stares.
"No pushing, ladies. There's enough of Miyabi to go around."
"You sound so unbelievably gay when you say that." Miyabi merely rolled his eyes at his younger twin.

"AH! IT'S REI!" Someone cried and suddenly, the fangirls spotted Tuki's older brother. Rei, looking impeccably cool with his leather jacket and bass strapped across his back, glanced up when he heard his name. He was in the middle of lighting a cigarette.
"Oh shit." Then everybody started running, chasing Rei and leaving the twins alone.
"Oh well," Miyabi said, watching them go. "That was fun while it lasted."
"Speak for yourself, someone ripped of my jean pocket."
"Gotta learn to take care of yourself, lil' bro." Miyabi laughed. "Hey, wait."
"What?"
"A FANGIRL! THEY STOLE MY WALLET!"

The Future Not Promised Chpt. Nineteen

2008-04-28T23:10:05Z

Chapter Nineteen: What de ass?

"So, you'll be fine, right?" Aoi asked as he pulled on a white dress shirt. He was going off to meet a business partner by the name of Yoshiki.
"Mmhmm." Uruha snuggled deeper into the covers. He couldn't help but notice how sexy Aoi looked.
"Call me if you need me," Aoi kissed Uruha on the forehead and tousled his blonde tresses.
"Alright." Uruha hugged Aoi and breathed in his Bvlgari cologne before he left the hotel room. Uruha watched the soap opera on the television for a minute. His eyelids started drooping slowly. Uruha sneezed and gave a sniffle before dozing off slightly, feeling very fat, very large and very pregnant.

~

"ROOM SERVAAAASSSS!!" The door sounded like it was about to be knocked over. By something large and angry. Uruha sat up with a start.
"Room service?" Uruha murmured, rubbing the sleep out his eyes.
"YES, ROOM SERVASS." The door answered.
"Coming!" Uruha slipped on a bathrobe-he had to stretch it over his large bump- and stepped over to open the door. To his amazement, a large Jamaican woman in a bright yellow dress was standing there.
"Good mornin', child!!" She reached over and pinched Uruha's cheeks before engulfing him in a tight embrace. "My name be Theresa!!" Theresa smelled of coconut hand lotion and Lysol.
"Uruha." Uruha's voice was muffled by Theresa's hug.
"Oooh, child, I KNOW who YOU be! That sweet child Aoi hired me, yeh he did, he be a good to you, child. Now you be good to me and get dress, y'hear? He be a tellin' me to take care of you. Now get dressed. We be going out for a walk."

The Day Before...
Ruki munched on his watermelon slice and flicked the seeds at Reita, who was sitting next to him at the kitchen table, reading a tabloid magazine. Reita looked up in annoyance.
"I'm pregnant. The baby's, like, telling me to do this." Ruki explained.
Reita nodded and went back to his magazine. Then he looked back up, worried.
"Babies do that to you?"
Ruki rolled his eyes.
"My God. If they do that to you, please don't have another. I don't want you throwing other stuff at me! MY GOD! What if the things you throw get heavier as you have more children? MY GOD!"
Reita started to hyperventilate.
"I'm gonna be a father." He took another ragged breath. "I'm gonna be a father."
Ruki flicked another watermelon seed at him.
"Loser. Just don't have, like, sex. Then I won't get pregnant again." Ruki frowned at Reita. "Hey, wait a minute!" Ruki thought for a second. "Does that mean you don't, like, want, like, THIS, baby? Asshole. YOU'RE SLEEPING ON THE FREAKIN' COUCH TONIGHT!!" Reita stopped abruptly in his tracks.
"Ruuukiii. Babyyy. I love you. You know that, right?" Reita walked over and hugged Ruki to his body. "You know I was only joking! We could have six billion kids if you like!"
"Say all you want, asshole. You're still, like, sleeping on the freakin' couch. I hate you. So much. I hate you I hate you I hate you I so totally hate you."
Reita sighed and scratched at his temple slightly.
"I'll take you shopping. Anything you like. Anything." Ruki turned around and gave Reita a peck on the cheek.
"I love you, Reita."

Reita picked up a toothbrush. "Wow. They sell these at drugstores?"
"Iunno." Ruki didn't even give the toothbrush a glance. Reita glanced down and over to see what Ruki was looking at. Pregnancy tests. Reita walked over and crouched next to Ruki.
"Hey. Why are you looking at those?" Reita said quietly into Ruki's ear.
Ruki gazed at Reita with sober eyes before returning his eyes to the boxes.
"You didn't take me seriously, did you?" Reita nudged Ruki softly.
Ruki nudged back with force, however, Reita stood his ground.
"Actually, I really like the fact that you're pregnant. With my child. And I'd love to have more kids with you."
Ruki looked to the ground.
"You know why?"
Ruki shook his head slightly. "Tell me," he said in a small voice, looking for all the world like a small frightened child.
"'Cause I love you, stupid. I thought you knew that!"
Ruki couldn't help but smile. He nudged Reita again and Reita enveloped him in a tight embrace.
"I hate you." Ruki said, burying his face into Reita's shirt.
"I love you too." Reita kissed Ruki's head.
"So it doesn't matter what trimester the baby in, this can terminate it anytime?" Ruki looked up. That voice... Coming from the back of the store... It was so familiar...
Absent-mindedly, he gently pushed Reita to the side and crawled towards the end of the aisle.
"What the hell?" Ruki whispered when he saw who the source of the sound was.
Midori.
"What? Why are we whispering? Hey! Isn't that--" Reita was cut off by Ruki slapping a hand to his mouth.
"Shhhhh!!!"
"That's right," the pharmacist behind the counter said. "However, you need a prescription. We can't just hand fetus poison out to the world, you know."
"Oh, I'm a obsteatrician. I know these things. Besides, I need it incase one of those teenage pregnant girls come in and need something quick and speedy." Midori then fluttered her eyelashes and slid her hand over the counter to lightly touch the pharmacist's.
The pharmacist gave a slight wheeze. He closed his eyes. Ruki could see his chest rise and fall rapidly.
His hand dipped under the counter and pulled out a flat plastic package. The pharmacist then slid the box towards Midori.
Midori smiled and took it in her hands (claws, according to Ruki). She winked at the pharmacist before walking towards the cashier.
"BITCH!" Ruki stood up and screamed. A lady in the same aisle as him ran away, frightened.
Reita looked up at Ruki.
"Get up," Ruki said. "We're going to, like, totally stop her before it's actually too late!" Ruki grabbed Reita up by the hand. "To the Reita-mobile!"
"I don't like where this is going," Reita whispered to himself as Ruki pushed him out of the drugstore. And as you could guess, people nearby stared.

As they walked to their car, Ruki whipped out his cell phone. He made calls during the whole trip to Kai's house. Reita looked on nervously, afraid of what will happen next. Knowing Ruki, Reita had good reason to be afraid. The traffic light became red and Reita pressed on the brake pedal. Then he faced Ruki.
"Um, Ruki?"
"Yes, Reita?"
"What are we doing, exactly?"
Ruki turned towards Reita with a creepy smile on his face. His long burgandy fringe completely covered his eyes, adding to an overall psychotic image. Ruki chuckled a bit. Reita gulped.
"Nevermind, I don't want to know." Reita then said hastily.
"First, we're, like, hiring a bodyguard for Uruha. I sooooo don't trust that bitch of a bitch, Midori. Then, we are finding a way to, like, sabotage Midori's trip to where Uruha is.... She seems to, like, totally know where he is. All the freakin' time. Stalker.. I wish she wasn't, like, so much of a asswipe so she could, like, teach me a few pointers. The bodyguard for Uruha should, like, deal with Midori and, like, her body afterwards. Heh heh heh."
Reita's eyes grew wide. "B-b-body?"
All he got was in reply was another "Heh heh heh."
Reita then jumped in surprise when the cars behind them started to honk their horns. The traffic light was green and for a long time too, it seems.
Meekly, Reita pushed the gas pedal and started to drive again. Ruki stared out the window. He noticed a well-built, bald man in sunglasses following them. The man was running. He was catching up.
Not wanting to alarm Reita, Ruki dialed a number on his phone again.
"Just in case..." Ruki murmured.

Back to the present..

In the washroom, Uruha took out his cell phone.
"Plz help, crazy woman broke in. Im scared!!! She claims 2 know u. What do i do?? >_<" Uruha urgently typed out the message and sent it to Aoi. Then Theresa thumped on the door.
"Lawd, how long does it take for a ting like you ter get ready? Be fasta, or I'mma comin' in!"
Uruha took a sharp intake of breath, then he put on whatever articles of clothing he could find (Polo shirt, Aoi's black jeans) and peeked out of the bathroom door.
Theresa was still there. Her eyes followed Uruha as he walked out of the bathroom and put on his trench coat. Uruha fell in love with trench coats ever since Ruki dragged Kai and him into that disguise store to stalk Midori. They covered his pregnancy quite well. Uruha turned towards Theresa, who was sitting in an armchair, still watching him.
"Umm," Uruha started.
"Yes?" Theresa leapt up, the stiff armchair stuck onto her grand body. "What de ass? Damn chairs," Theresa muttered under her breath as she yanked it off, breaking only one leg. Uruha stifled a giggle.
"Yes?" Theresa said again.
"Not to be rude or anything, but... Why are you here?"
Theresa took a deep breath before what appeared to be scratching her ear. But then she whispered into it, "He's bein' onto me."
"What's that at your ear?"
"He knows! I thank he knows! I told'ya! I told'y'all that he would know!" Theresa went into an almost-panic attack. Uruha took a step back, frightened yet strangely amused at the same time.
"Evacuate! Evacuate immediately! Like, now!" Said the little earpiece. Uruha could see it clearly now.
"Wait, what?" Uruha walked over towards Theresa, who was clutching her chest, her big lips parted as she drew in deep wheezy breaths. "RUKI?"
There was a slight pause.
"Shit."

"..So basically, I need to get out of this hotel room? Right now?"
"Yes, child. We's have a right ter believe that somebuddeh's out ter get'cha."
"Well, I haven't been mean to anyone lately... I pay my bills..."
"Think, child! They says you was smart! Who wants yo' baby daddy?"
"Midori?"
"Midori."
"What does she have to do with anything?"
There was a knock on the door, frightening Theresa, who yelped "WHAT DE ASS?" very loudly.
"I'll be answerin' that. Can't be trusting no one no where."
She peered through the peephole on the door. "Good, good," she rubbed her hands together happily before swinging the door open a crack. Ruki slipped in.
"Ruki!!" Uruha tried to hug him, but his large bump just bounced the little man off. "Sorry," Uruha said apologetically as Ruki picked himself off the carpet.
"Just don't, like, mind me now! We totally have to get you out of here THIS. INSTANT!"
"Didn't yer say that Reita be comin' with'chu?"
"He got a little, like, traumatized with the, like, hit man."
"HIT MAN?" Uruha's eyes became the size of saucers.
"Totally. The bitch has gone fuckin' insane. She wants that baby of yours GONE, like, no matter WHAT."
"She be a witch. Whoevuh be wantin' a child dead has got ta be a witch."
"Yeah!" Theresa and Ruki bumped their fists together. It was quite a bizarre sight, watching the large black woman in her yellow dress and straw hat giving props to the little man in his inflated hair and tight leather clothes, adorned with chains.
"Which is why, we totally gotta like, bring that bitch DOWN."
"I'm scared," Uruha said in hushed tones.
"Oh ho ho, my child. 'Tis that witch who shoulda be scared."
"What are we going to do?" Uruha was almost afraid to ask.
"Well, we kinda have to know where, like, she is, right? We have some of their hit men down already... Miyavi's totally taken care of that. In the mean time, we have to, like, keep you safe and out of danger."
"Does Aoi know about this?"
"I dunno... Where is Aoi, anyway?"
"Working with a guy named Yoshiki. Why?"
"YOSHIKI?" Ruki exchanged a glance with Theresa.
"Chiiild, he be gone. Yoshiki's in America, baby. Press conference..I think... Somethin' ter do with a hooka he be findin' on the streets. You'll neva believe it, child! It turn' out to be a MAN!"
"Oh my gosh, WHAT?"
"That means, it's a lie! We have to totally, like, go find Aoi!"
"NOOOOO! He hasn't been returning my texts! Oh my gosh, what if Midori's got him?" Uruha gave Theresa's hand a tight squeeze. Theresa's face puckered and she made a squelching sound.
"No no, Midori's, like, somewhere in this hotel. I'm totally sure Aoi is fine!" Ruki patted Uruha's shoulder.
Theresa gave a loud cough. It sounded a bit like "doubt it."

Aoi gave his watch another impatient glance. Yoshiki was an hour late. The waiter offered Aoi some more coffee, which Aoi obliged to.
"Excuse me, did the gentleman who reserved this table disclose when he would be arriving?" Aoi then inquired.
"No, I don't believe so, sir. Allow me to go check."
Aoi stirred his unsipped coffee and watched as his waiter hurried back.
"Err, excuse me sir, were you to meet a man named Yoshiki?"
"Why yes, how come?"
"Well, sir, Yoshiki is apparently in America, something to do with, um, a male prostitute of some sort?"
Aoi's mind blew a fuse. However, he remained calm. "A male prostitute, you say?"
The waiter looked down at his feet to hide the fact that he was just barely containing his badly-supressed laughter.
"Yes, sir." He whispered, entire body shaking from his amusement.
So that's why Yoshiki needed a lawyer... Aoi though to himself. Ah well. He might as well just go home then.
"Hmm. I see. I'll be going now, then." The waiter stopped laughing and stared up at Aoi. Aoi looked back into his eyes. He then realized that the waiter was no older than he was. The waiter seemed to be thinking the same thing.
"Hey, you don't have any kids, do you?" Aoi asked.
"No. Can't even hold down a girlfriend," The guy shook his head.
Aoi took out a twenty dollar bill and laid it down on the table before standing up to leave. The waiter looked at it.
"Keep the change," Aoi said, not glancing back as he stepped out the glass door.
He picked up the money and stared at it some more before shifting his glance towards the door where Aoi was.
"The coffee was free, you know!"

"Window."
"Door."
"Window."
"Door."
"WINDOW, BITCH! Midori would TOTALLY NEVER EVER think of, like, using the WINDOW!"
"In case you forgot, we're both pregnant. Me especially. I can hardly fit into my clothes now, let alone THAT thing," Uruha exclaimed, pointing to the window.
Theresa chuckled from the armchair; she seemed to have forgotten that it trapped her and got stuck to her grand bottom last time she decided to indulge in a stiff hotel chair.
Ruki and Uruha were heatedly debating on the best methods to exit the hotel. They had narrowed it down to the window and the door. Ruki had previously suggested the air vent, breaking a hole into the wall and disguising as concierges ("pregnant concierges, Ruki?").
The two were immediately silenced as they heard the jingling of keys outside the door. Thinking it was Aoi, Uruha hastily tried to shove Ruki into a closet to hide him. Ruki wrestled against Uruha (he was failing miserably; Uruha was taller by a good amount) and Theresa tried her hardest to yank the chair out from her behind.
They stopped all movement once they heard Aoi say, "Midori?"
Theresa, furniture and all, stumbled towards the door to pry it open. Aoi was standing about three feet away from the door, staring down at Midori, who was at the door.
She was dressed in all black, with her hair bundled up in a black toque. All you could see was her eyes, but one could still tell it was her. Uruha and Ruki exchanged a glance and peered out the door.
The keyhole of the doorknob was jammed with bobbypins and unbent paper clips, as if Midori were trying to pick the lock.
Then, as if they were cued, a whole swarm of people turned a corner and came running towards them. Jui was trying to keep his balance on giant sparkly platform shoes; Shinya carried a chainsaw; Shou was unconcious and was carried by both Saga and Tora, who were having difficulty dragging him and running at the same time. Both Uruha and Ruki's mothers were trailing behind and Hiroto lead the pack of insanity.
Hiroto unfortunately tripped, bringing everybody down with him. Shinya's chainsaw went flying through the air and landed right in front of Aoi, who flinched and gaped at the weapon before peering warily at the gang of people on the floor before him.
"We came as reinforcements!" Tora announced from underneath Shinya.
Reita instantly appeared, jogging. He came to a screeching halt when he saw the chainsaw and the human pile, courtesy of Hiroto.
"Uhh, Ruki? I got your message..." Reita said, looking around for the man.
Jui pushed Tora's face out of the way and stood up. He cleared his throat before announcing, "Aoi, baby. Let's get this straight, mmkay? This," he pointed at Midori, "has been causing this," Jui reached over with his four inch nails to grab Uruha out of the room and into the stuffed hallway, "grief. How? By accusing you of infidelity. With whom? With her. Why? I'm not entirely sure, but mostly likely because she's one psycho son-of-a-bitch."
"I'm a WOMAN." Midori snarled.
"Could have fooled me!" Saga nudged Tora and everybody snickered at her.
Aoi rubbed his forehead and looked around at everyone in disbelief of the whole chaotic situation. "Is this true?" He whispered.
Everybody nodded. Ruki's mother stood up.
"For a lawyer, you're pretty darn stupid. Couldn't you tell she's evil? Anybody who wears red alligator ballet flats with silver hardware is BOUND to be evil."
"Oh yeah?" Midori stood up. All the bobbypins and paperclips on her lap fell to the floor. "They're way better looking than that thing you call a handbag. Plus, they're DESIGNER."
"They're UGLY. Bitch, please. I've got more style in my pinky nail than in your entire body. That toque you're wearing makes me want to puke."
"And stop wearing blue eyeshadow, that's my thing!" Saga shouted.
"Stop, stop. Everyone, stop. Midori, why are you doing this?" Aoi looked tired. Uruha guitily looked down and rubbed his bump, also wanting to know why.
Midori looked bitter. Uruha glanced her and saw that she was very much in pain.
Long surpressed emotional pain.
"I loved you, Aoi. I gave up everything for you. My scholarship. My friends. My family. My virginity." (Ruki made a gagging noise.)
"You just went and dumped me. I hated you." Midori's voice choked. "So damn much. Why, Aoi? Why did you do that? We were the best thing ever and you had to go and destroy it. Now," she continued, eyes flashing with anger, "I'm destroying you. You and that thing you call Uruha. I have it all planned out. If it went my way, you won't have any kids. At least not with him."
"Midori..." Uruha turned towards Aoi, anxious of what he was going to say next. "Go home. You have a job. Go get a life. Leave mine alone. What's done is done, please don't dwell on the past. I dumped you because you were clingy, obnoxious and rude to my mother. And Uruha? Yeah, I think I'm gonna have kids with him. In case you couldn't tell, he's pregnant and usually, pregnancy leads to children. Now kindly exit the building before I am forced to notify the authorities."
Midori took a step towards Aoi.
"Make me."
Shinya, who had silently slipped out of the heap, had gone to his chainsaw. He held it in his hands and turned it on. It made a freaky, menacing sound.
And that was the last Uruha ever saw of Midori. She took off before Shinya had a chance to maul her.
Aoi let out a deep sigh. "I believe this calls for a restraining order!" He embraced Uruha. "Sorry you had to deal with all that. I thought she was okay with the whole break-up thing," he whispered into his ear before kissing it.
Uruha relaxed into his hug. "I'm okay. I'm pretty sure the baby is, too."
"Let's go home," Aoi declared. There was a unanimous murmur of approval as everyone got up from the pile and brushed themselves off.
"Hear, hear!" Uruha's mother rubbed Uruha on the cheeks lovingly before heading off for home with Ruki's other. "You were always my brave little boy."
Shou was still unconcious, and Hiroto was left to carry him as a punishment for tripping. "Why, oh, WHY did Shou have to drink so much soymilk before leaving the house?" He cried. Saga and Tora helped yank the chair off of Theresa and Shinya lovingly carried the chainsaw as they sauntered downstairs. Ruki clutched Reita's arm and sang the whole way down the aisle. "Ding dong, the bitch is dead! Which bitch? Midori the bitch!"
Jui, however, hung back.
"SAY! Uruha baby! Since you're like gonna have more kids and all, how's about naming one after me?"

A/N: all i can say is, SORRY! SORRY! SORRY! SORRY FOR THE LATENESS!
this is the last chapter before the final chapter and the epilogue.
and it's not the last you're gonna be seeing of midori...that's all i can say :P
as usual, i love comments; they actually encourage me to update faster!

~Ruki~

When Rei told me his plan, I got so excited!
Uruha is always so cool, so cold towards others.
He flirts, yeah, but he's lonely.
I can tell.
So basically, what he told me was that we hook them up...
In some way...
He didn't really specify.
He just really wanted to hook them up so that they won't be lonely anymore, I guess.
Rei's so sweet like that.
Anyhow, Rei decided to spy on them.
He dragged me along.
We were hiding in the bushes to watch Uruha after school that day.
He even had a clipboard and notebook with him!
I don't think that was such a good idea.
'Cause then Rei couldn't keep his hands to himself.
So then I was watching Uru...
He seemed to be kinda frazzled.
Poor Uru.
It was probably what happened today...
And then I felt this hand.
On my bum.
I turned to look Rei, and he too was examining Uruha with an air of interest.
He was also rubbing my butt.
-__________________________________-
Then he wrapped his arms around my waist and started to kiss me shoulder, then neck, then jawline...
And then, to my extreme horror, this teacher appeared!
He was all, "What are you doing? IN THE BUSHES?"
He made it seem like a crime.
Being in the bushes.
Rei stood up.
Rei, being typically Rei-like, bowed to the teacher.
"Greetings, Aoyama-san," he said.
(He knew the teacher's name...?)
Taken back, Aoyama-san pushed up his glasses and examined Rei.
"Oh, uh, yes! Suzuki."
"That's right, Aoyama-san! Just doing some homework and teaching little Ruki here some biology."
Rei gestured towards the notebook and clipboard.
"Oh, uh, yes."
"We have a lot of chemistry."
"Oh. Uh...yes..?"
"Homework, I mean."
Even Aoyama-san was in awe of Rei's hotness.
And charisma.
And charm.
And good looks.
"Oh, uh, yes. Continue then."
Then he left, probably to stalk some other people.
"Pretty smooth, huh?"
Rei looked pretty pleased with himself.
"...Right. Rei, what are we supposed to be doing, exactly?"
"Oh, just taking notes on Uruha."
Riight.
"Speaking of which, where IS Uruha?"
Uh oh.
I looked at Rei.
I looked at the blank notebook.
Well, almost blank.
I just doodled a bit in the corner.
Rei smacked his forehead with his palm.
"He got away!"
"I'm sorry!" I squeaked.
"It's okay. I have Plan B."
He grinned at me.
"Oh, okay then." I smiled back at him.
He has Plan B, so everything's going to be alright.
Plan B.
PLAN B?

~Kai~

I am so angry I could cry.
Why would he even.
Doesn't he understand?
I don't WANT to move schools.
Yes.
That's right.
Miyavi wants me to transfer.
Why?
He doesn't want me "getting hurt", he says.
I'm not gonna get hurt.
I'm not!
Just 'cause of that one time.
The more I think about it, the more my breathing grows deeper, angrier, more inconsistent.
"Baby doll."
"Yeah, mom?" I answer.
She puts her blinker on and makes a left turn.
She takes a drag out of her cigarette before asking me what's wrong.
She isn't supposed to smoke.
She still has, like, seven months to go.
"Miyavi doesn't want me to go to Purinsu."
"Dump him, baby. There's this one guy I want you to meet anyway. His name's Nao, he's rich, good-looking..."
She rambles on and on about this Nao character.
My mom's pretty okay.
You know, with the whole "I'm a homosexual and I like men" thing.
"...and he's into music too! I'm sure he'll be a much better match for you, darling."
She looks at me through her giant sunglasses.
"Darling?"
But I wasn't listening.
I was just replaying the scene of what happened earlier.
He went to go pick me up after school.
That's when he told me.
I told him no.
You understand, right?
I have a LIFE here.
Who will help Chikako with her addiction when I'm gone?
Who will help Ruki with his anorexia when I'm gone?
I mean.
Even my cousin, Reita, goes here.
Miyavi just handed me these forms.
Transfer forms.
To some school named D. EnGrey Secondary.
What?
I don't even KNOW what D. EnGrey is!
What kinda language is that?
I started to shake.
But I told myself not to cry.
I gave the forms back to Miyavi, hoping he would understand.
But he didn't.
He was just so convinced that Purinsu was a bad place.
I told him that just because he thought it was a bad place doesn't mean that it is.
He's just mad because people here didn't accept him.
I told him that.
And instantly, I touched a nerve inside him.
He just gave me this look.
Like he despised me.
And he walked away.
He didn't look back.
"Darling?"
Snapping out of my trance, I looked at my mom.
"You alright, baby?"
I took a deep breath.
And put a smile on.
"Fine, mom."

~Reita~

Damn.
My plans never work out!
Even back then.
I tried asking Ruki out, but he just looked at me with those eyes of his.
I couldn't even get my words out.
It came out like some kinda gibberish crap.
Like "Urgurgurgurgurgruki."
The poor guy thought I was making fun of him.
He blushed and walked away.
Kai nearly killed me that day...
I was never the same...
Fuck it.
This time.
This time, it's going to be different.
My plan is going to work this time.
I don't care if I have the lock them up in a meat locker!
Aoi and Uruha are going to get together.
It's as if I have a sixth sense.
I can sense when people need each other.
I told Ruki this and he told me to lie down while he got me some ice for my head.
Yeah well, doubt me all you want.
I know that Aoi is gay.
Heh heh heh.
He likes men.
So yeah, I was at the gym with him yesterday.
He was whining and complaning about how his mom won't stop bothering him.
About his singleness.
In my own personal opinion, I agree with Mama Shiroyama.
Aoi's OLD.
He needs to get back into the real world.
He doesn't know Uruha and Uruha doesn't know him,
but it's going to work out!
I plan to first have them meet "accidentally".
Then have them fall in love with each other.
Oooh, I hope Ruki can help me with this.
He's best friends with Uruha anyway.
So my PLAN B is to have us go to that new crepe place I've been wanting to try.
Kill two birds with one stone, right?
I feel like a fatty now =/
I'm gonna bring Aoi along, and Ruki's gonna bring Uruha along.
Ruki and I are gonna ditch, leaving Uruha and Aoi alone to GET IT ONNNN.
Bow chicka wow wowww.
Yeah, so, it'd better turn out okay.
Because if it doesn't, I'll have to use PLAN C
And I don't know what PLAN C is...
Yet.
Muhahahaha.
Ha.

~Aoi~

I never really gave love much of a thought before.
My last girlfriend was a year ago.
I ended it.
She went insane.
Yeah.
Well.
Life.
It gets you everytime.
Anyway, I'm okay.
Being single wasn't bad.
You get to check people out without feeling guilty.
Ha ha ha.
But then Reita introduced me to Ruki.
Not a bad kid.
Kinda shy, but nice, I guess.
It started out very inconspicuously.
Reita would call Ruki, Ruki would call Reita.
Then it became so that I would see Ruki more and more.
When I watch a game with Reita at his place, there was Ruki.
Watching a movie? There was Ruki.
In the cafeteria.
There was Ruki.
At Reita's house for a project once, I wanted to go to pee.
He said I couldn't.
Guess why.
Ruki was taking a shower after God knows what.
Reita also said if I flushed the toilet, I would change the water's temperature and poor Ruki would blah blah blah.
Ehh...
I tolerated it.
He was my friend, my buddy, my man.
Besides, all gushy "Oh, I love you so much!" stuff makes me laugh.
Or puke.
Then, a month later, I turned eighteen.
I was old.
And alone.
That kinda makes you think, doesn't it?
I'm graduating this year.
My sister is married.
With a young kid.
And I'm single.
Come on!
I'm on the soccer team.
And the tennis team.
And the basketball team.
I do judo.
I'm pretty well-built, if I do say so myself.
I do okay in school.
My face is nice.
And I'm still, still...
STILL.
Single.
And if that didn't make things worse, last night I heard my parents.
DOING IT.
Like.
IT IT.
My God.
I couldn't sleep that night.
I told Reita, and he laughed.
He're probably laughing right now, that bastard.
It seems like everyone's in love.
Except me.
I'm not lonely or anything.
Am I?
I just want someone to talk to.
Someone to spend time with.
Wait, what am I looking for?
Like I said, I never really gave love much of a thought before.

~Kai~

I was skipping down the hall after school one day, talking to Miyavi over the phone.
Oh my Lord.
Myvs is one of the most amazing-est people you will EVER meet!
But once you get to know him, you will fall in loooove.
I know I did.
;)
So yeah, I was talking in the hallway.
Miyavi said he was outside the front door, waiting for me.
I said hi to people I knew.
Tama-san, Chikako (they say she's a whore, but she's actually very nice!), Mika-chan...
Etc.
Purinsu High is filled with such characters!
The school is sooo beautiful too!
There's even this student lounge where students go to do whatever they want.
Studying, eating, making out.
You name it, they do it.
I even saw a guy dealing pot there once.
Anyways, so I was skipping.
All carefree and junk.
I probably didn't see where I was going.
That's probably why I bumped into them.
But the thing was, I'm not so sure.
There was three of them.
They were standing there, blocking my way.
Whether they did it on purpose or not, I didn't know.
But I do remember that they were big.
And sinister.
I was so scared.
They pushed me.
And I fell.
My phone skidded off to some random corner.
I looked up.
They sneered and slapped each other's shoulders.
"What do we do with the little gay kid?" They asked each other.
Those guys looked kinda dumb, so I thought I could sneak away while they were discussing the best ways to harm me.
I hoped not to make a scene.
Quietly, very quietly, I shuffled to the corner where my little shiny phone was.
I picked it up.
I then sneezed.
They turned their meaty heads.
"HEY! SUNSHINE OVER THERE'S GONNA GET AWAY!"
Then, I knew I was in trouble.
Well, more trouble than I was already in.
Ohhhhh dear.
The biggest one grabbed me by my shirt and slammed me against the wall.
"Freak," he snarled in my face.
I forgot all the self-defence I knew (which wasn't much).
But that was the only word he got to say.
The next thing I knew, he was lying there, on the floor.
His front tooth was knocked out.
He was unconscious.
I sank to the floor, scared out of my wits.
Someone picked me up.
It was him.
"You okay?" Miyavi smiled.
He had a bit of blood on his knuckles.
I asked him where the other two guys where.
"Don't ask."
I put my head on his shoulder and started to cry.

~Reita~

I'm getting kinda suspicious.
He's not eating much.
And when he does eat, it's hardly anything.
Maybe it's school.
Ruki is really dedicated to his education.
Oh well.
Hopefully it's nothing serious.
He isn't going to do anything dangerous right?
Right.
At school, it's no different.
He hardly eats.
At the caf, he just talks to the people we hang around or studies.
The girls that stalk me hover near our table too.
I hear it's called the Sun Table.
Because it's hot there.
Also because it's filled with hot people.
Take Akane for example.
One of the hottest girls you'll ever meet.
One of Kai's friends.
She has a list of fanboys that goes from here to the North Pole.
And her friend, Hinata.
Not as hot as Akane, but according to the unwritten rules of Purinsu, that's already pretty hot.
And Uruha, one of Ruki's best friends.
He has both genders fighting for him.
He flirts with them, sure.
But honestly?
He thinks nothing of them unless they're talking to him.
Right there.
In person.
Let's just say he's hotter than Akane.
And he's a guy.
Now Aoi on the other hand...
That guy is about as straight as the letter o.
And me.
And incase you couldn't tell.
I'm gay.
I mean.
Homo.
Ugh.
Let's just stick to gay.
Okay, yeah.
Back to Aoi.
He won't admit it, though.
The fact that he's gay, I mean.
How does this relate to Uruha?
Let's just say that I was cupid for Valentine's Day.
In the bedroom.
Hoo yeahhh.
Wait a minute.
Pretend you didn't hear that.
Anyways.
Cupid.
Yeah.
Me.
*sigh*
Why do the people at school think I'm cool again?

juice.

100% fresh. never from concentrate.

one.

~Ruki~

The sun shone through the gold-curtained French windows of my room, but I stayed in my king-sized bed for a long time.

I glanced at the clock.
Five thirty.
That should give me the two hours required to get myself ready in the morning.
Then another half to try on clothes...maybe eat some breakfast...

No. Skip the breakfast.

"Ruki-sama?" Mei, one of my maids, walked in, carrying a tray of breakfast.

Toast. Fattening.

Milk. Fattening.

Crepe. Most Fattening of them all.

Grapefruit...

Tempting, but no thanks.

"Thank you, Mei!" I took the tray and nodded to Mei as she bowed and walked out.
I set the tray on one of my desks (I decided against the desk with the computer; the milk might spill) and walked into my bathroom, where I took a shower.
As I stepped out of the steamy room, I took a good look at myself.

No pimples, that was good... I didn't gain any weight, either...

That was even better.

I looked through my medicine cabinet, taking out various hair products to freeze my hair into its usual array of messy perfection.

Perfect is what I wanted to be, so I took another half-hour to do my makeup.

As a child of neglectful parents, I got whatever I wanted, and my walk-in closet was stuffed full of designer clothing and accessories.

Everything was arranged perfectly and carefully.

I tried on some clothes before realizing I had to go to school, meaning I had to wear a uniform.

I slipped on the required white shirt and crisp black pants.

The males at Purinsu High were allowed to wear skirts, which one of my best friends Uruha did, but they were known as sluts if they did.

Uruha didn't care.

He knew he was a slut.

He knew he was being called a slut.

And he liked it.

I blushed.
Anyone who called him a slut would probably be slammed into a coma by Reita, my boyfriend.

Reita was one of the best things that ever happened to me.
His face was a sight to behold and his body was a work of art. I know that I wasn't good enough for Reita, and never will be.

No matter how many times Reita disagreed with that.

It also didn't help that everyone, everyone, at Purinsu High worshipped Reita.
He was the number one coveted male in school.

My red Blackberry Pearl vibrated.

It was a text from Kai.

"Eat," it said.

Kai was another story. He was extremely sweet, extremely kind.

He worried about Ruki and the rest of the gang all the time.

Kai was like brown sugar.

Sweet, but natural too.

The only strange thing was that he was dating a drop-out named Miyavi.
Rumours swirled around the school, but Kai paid them no mind.

He usually didn't.

I know Miyavi.

He was a nice guy.

Kai knew he was a nice guy.

That’s the thing about Kai.

He didn’t care about what people said.

I do.

I do a lot.

There was a knock on the door.

“Ruki-sama! The car’s waiting!” Mei called from the door.

“Coming!” I said as I slipped my Blackberry into my new leather satchel.

Grabbing the bag, I stepped out of the door to face a new day.

~Miyavi~

I don’t know what it is about Kai, but the first time I met him, it felt like there was finally some sunshine in my cloudy life.

My mom is dead, my dad’s a drunk and my brother is probably in jail right now.

Pretty freakin' awesome, wouldn’t you agree?

Anyway, I met him at school, before I dropped out.

Chapter Eighteen: Ryoko

Uruha glanced up. Aoi looked down at the sudden movement from the head resting on his shoulder.
"Bad dream?" Aoi asked. Uruha sat up and blinked, clearing the sleep from his eyes.
"Are we there yet?" Uruha murmured.
"Almost," Aoi replied, typing onto his laptop. Uruha fidgeted, hands resting on the baby. He looked out the window. Sitting up slightly, he looked around the plane. Not much to look at. Just some normal people doing normal things. Except that woman in that sunglasses, trenchcoat and scarf around her head. She looked like she was watching Uruha, but quickly turned around when Uruha glanced at her.
Hmm.
Oh well.
Uruha picked at his nails.
He sighed and practised breathing deeply.
"You got an e-mail." Aoi said suddenly. He turned the laptop towards Uruha with an amused smile on his face.


To: Uruha Kouyou T. Shiroyama < rurutakashima@gotmail.com >

                                                    Ruki - [roo-khee] noun 1. the most fabulous person you will ever meet.


Uruha giggled. He could feel the baby inside wiggle, as if it were laughing at Ruki's letter too.
Aoi joined into the laughter. Uruha sighed in contentment and leaned on Aoi's shoulder. Cupping Uruha's face gently, Aoi turned it towards his own.
"I love it when you laugh," Aoi whispered softly before pressing his lips onto Uruha's.

~

Ruki shrieked.
"AKKKKK!! NO! MIYABI!! PUT THAT--OW! REITA!! REEIITTAAAA!" Ruki rubbed at his forehead, where Miyabi had thrown his bottle.
"I'm not going in there! My head's bruised enough, thanks!" Was the reply from outside the door.
Itoshii napped on the bed as Miyabi clapped his hands and rolled around, giggling.
"This kid," Ruki grumbled as he picked up the bottle off the floor, "will, like, probably knock someone out one day. With a baby bottle. GOSH." He managed to finish feeding Miyabi, then left him to fall asleep.
"Reita." Ruki said, walking out of their bedroom to find Reita sitting on the floor with Rei in his arms and a magazine in his hand.
"`Sup babe?" Reita replied, looking up.
"`Sup babe?" Rei imitated his father, then bopped Reita on the head with his little fist.
"Ow!" Reita said, letting go of Rei to nurse his head. Rei ran towards Ruki's legs to hide from his dad.
Ruki picked Rei up.
"Heyyyy, little man. That wasn't, like, very nice. Say sorry to your dumb daddy."
"Sorry dumb daddy." Rei popped his thumb into his mouth. Reita grumbled.
"And, like, don't call me babe." Ruki put Rei into their bedroom and patted his bum to make him walk in. He closed the door after him and stepped torwards Reita. Ruki then took a deep breath, as if anxious about something. He bit his lower lip.
"Reita?" Ruki whispered, putting his forehead onto Reita's chest.
"Yeah?" Reita pressed their bodies together firmly. He rested his hands on Ruki's lower back.
Ruki hesitated. "Reita, remember that time we didn't use a condom?"
Reita's hands went lower and rubbed Ruki's bottom.
"Do I ever." Reita purred.
"Have you ever had an STD before?"
There was a shocked silence.
"What?"
"An STD. Like, did you ever have one?"
"Fuck, Ruki, get to the point!" Reita hissed worriedly.
Ruki ignored Reita's swearing.
"Answer the question."
"Fine! No!"
"Good." Ruki paused. "I totally don't want the father of my baby to, like, have ever had a sexually transmitted disease.
There was another silence. Ruki looked into Reita's stunned face.
"Reita?"
Silence.
"REITA?"
Silence. Reita didn't seem to notice Ruki.
"REITA AKIRA SUZUKI, YOU ANSWER ME RIGHT NOW OTHERWI---" Ruki was interrupted as Reita kissed him on the lips suddenly.
Ruki protested helplessly as Reita devoured his mouth.
"Mmnnmmnmmmm!!!" Reita held onto Ruki even harder.
When Reita finally let Ruki's lips free, Reita hugged Ruki very close to him.
"Reita? Are you, like, okay?" Ruki asked nervously, legs dangling a few inches from the ground.
"
"Eee! Eee! Daddy!! Owwiiieeee!" Rei's little voice broke the silence as his cries filled the air.
"Oh.mygosh." Ruki said, pushing Reita away, much to Reita's surprise. Ruki opened the door to find Rei, sitting on the floor in front of the door, sobbing his little heart out.
"Sweetie, what's wrong??" Ruki picked Rei up. Rei weeped into Ruki's neck. Reita looked at Rei, concerned.
And that's when both of them saw Miyabi's rattle on the floor and the goose egg on Rei's forehead.

~

"Aoi..?" Uruha stopped twisted Aoi's raven-black hair in his fingers to look at him. Aoi turned over to face Uruha.
They were now in their hotel room, resting on the bed. Aoi's head was on Uruha's lap and Uruha was upright, back against the bed's headboard. The couple were watching TV.
"Mmmhmm?"
"We're going to visit Ryoko-san tomorrow, right?"
"She wants you to call her mom."
"Pardon?"
"My mom." Aoi sat up and looked at Uruha. "She wants you to call her mom."
"Oh, Aoi! Really?"
"Yeah, really."
Uruha smiled at Aoi, then looked down his large pregnancy.
"How long?"
"Um... around a month." Uruha suddenly realized something. "Aoi! Does that mean the baby...our baby...won't get to see its grandmother?"
Aoi's smile faltered. Uruha looked down at his unborn child. No paternal grandmother for him. Or her. Uruha felt so bad for his baby. He hugged it closer to his body. And Aoi...
Losing his mother.
Nobody could ever be ready for that.
Uruha gave a sniffle.
"Hey. Come here." Aoi leaned back into the bed and pulled Uruha in for a tight hug. "We're gonna get through this, okay?"
Uruha nodded and rested his head onto Aoi's shoulder.
"Are you going to be okay?" Uruha asked.
"As long as you're there, I'll be fine." Aoi said, tousling Uruha's hair.
Uruha stared into Aoi's eyes.
"Tonight, can we put up the "do not disturb" sign?"

Uruha sighed in satisfaction as he turned over in the gold bedsheets. He watched as Aoi got dressed. He loved the way the black shirt looked on him today. Aoi stood in front of the hotel mirror to adjust his collar when he saw Uruha watching him. Aoi grinned.
"Good morning," Uruha beamed at Aoi.
"Aren't you tired?" Aoi turned around and smirked at Uruha.
Uruha shook his head. "Nope."
"Want me to make you tired?"
Uruha giggled and pulled the blankets over his head.
"Lalala, I can't hear you!!"
Aoi climbed onto the bed and crawled towards the covered Uruha. He picked him up, blankets and all, and cradled him in his arms. Uruha gasped in surprise.
"Oh geez. You're getting heavy." Aoi got a pillow to his face.
"I'm pregnant, stupid." Uruha laughed and smacked Aoi with the pillow again.
"Really? I didn't know!"
"Oh my gosh! Really? It's only been, I dunno... nearly eight months!"
Aoi chuckled and pressed his nose onto Uruha's. "Get dressed, O heavy one. We have to go see my mom."
"Mmmkay." Uruha grabbed the bathrobe that Aoi handed him and wrapped it around himself. He stood up to go to the bathroom.
"Mmm... Work that ass. Work it, baby. Aoi likes what he sees." Uruha turned around halfway to look at Aoi, who was in a position Uruha usually was in to seduce him.
Aoi was lying on his side, head propped up with his hand. His other hand was tracing little circles on his thigh. Aoi blew Uruha a kiss and a wink.
Uruha blushed, grabbed a pillow off the floor and threw it at Aoi ("Oof!") before scurrying off to the other room to take a shower.

The first thing Aoi did when he made money was to make his mother's life better. That's why he bought her everything she wanted. He put aside a small fortune for her to spend.
Right now, she lived in a gorgeous little white house filled with pictures in silver frames, squishy round sofas and a loopy staircase. It had four bedrooms, and each one was recently renovated.
Aoi rang the door bell and stood on the front porch with Uruha. Uruha closed his eyes and felt the winter sunshine on his face.
"See there?" Aoi said, pointing to a bunch of shrubbery, naked from the winter's chill.
"Mmhmm?"
"Those are Australian mint bushes, and those," Aoi pointed to a bunch of stems, "are roses."
"Oh my gosh. We have to visit in the summertime."
"Yep."
The door opened and a lady in a white uniform let them in.
"Aoi-sama." She said, curtseying.
"Hey, how are you?" Aoi replied to her.
"Ryoko-sama is upstairs."
"Thanks, Mai." Mai curtseyed again and went back to dusting in the living room.
"C'mon." Aoi took Uruha's hand and led him up the winding staircase with the black iron handrails. Once they reached the second floor, Aoi gingerly opened a door to his right.
"Aoi!!" Was the cheery voice from inside, followed by a cough.
Aoi put his head into the room, still holding onto Uruha's hand.
"Hey mom."
"Is Uruha there? Is he? Is he?"
"Yeah mom, just wait." Aoi pulled his head out and grinned at Uruha. "Ready?" He asked.
"No! What if my water breaks or something? Oh my gosh, what if I suddenly puke outta nowhere?" Uruha whispered urgently.
"You'll be fine." Aoi rubbed Uruha's shoulder.
"Does my hair look okay?"
"No."
"WHAT?" Uruha's voice raised a decibel.
"Your hair looks amazing, not okay."
Uruha rolled his eyes. "You're so corny."
"You know what else rhymes with corny?"
Uruha stifled a giggle. "You're so silly, too."
"Aoi! What's taking so long?" Ryoko called from inside her room.
"Coming!" Aoi dragged Uruha into the room with him.

~

Uruha couldn't stop crying. Seeing Aoi's mother was so emotional, so sad.
He wanted his baby to see this person, so brave. Raising a child is hard, but raising a child alone is even harder. And Aoi turned out so well...
They had just driven Ryoko to a hospital, her heart went into cardiac arrest.
She wasn't even old and she was dying.
Uruha hiccuped and reached for another tissue from the box that sat on the dashboard of Aoi's rented car.
"Hey." Aoi brushed aside some hair from Uruha's face. "You okay?"
"Why?" Uruha managed that single word. "Why, Aoi... w-why does it have, have to be her?"
Aoi didn't answer. He continued to drive.
"Aoi?"
"I don't know." Aoi said in a low voice.
"Why today?"
Aoi pulled up to a nearby gas station. He needed to stop. He turned to face Uruha shakingly.
"I don't know." A tear rolled down his cheek. Uruha reached out and wiped it away.
"You know what though?"
Aoi looked at Uruha intensely before replying.
"What."
"We're going to have a baby soon. And her name's going to be Ryoko."
"Her?"
"Her."

The Future Not Promised Chpt. Seventeen

2008-01-07T01:32:55Z

Chapter Seventeen: Diamonds

Uruha woke up the next day feeling very warm and happy. Aoi's arm was wrapped around his shoulders and he seemed to warm the whole bed up. Uruha stared up at the ceiling with a euphoric smile on his face. He stayed like that for a few minutes, then heard Aoi speak.
"Good morning, fiance."
"Good morning to you too, fiance." Uruha replied cheerful.
"Aren't we a little happy this morning," Aoi commented, smiling down at Uruha. Uruha beamed back at Aoi, resting his hands on the baby.
"A little over a month, right?" Aoi asked.
"Right."
"I can't wait."
"I can. I think it will be painful."
"It'll be painful to watch you. I'd hate to see you in so much agony."
Uruha giggled. "Oh you."
"And I'd hate to see you with clothes on, too."
Uruha laughed again as Aoi pulled the blanket over their heads and tickled Uruha.
"Nonono! Stop, stop, I think I have to pee!" Uruha wriggled and laughed.
Aoi grinned in reply and helped Uruha sit upright.
"Go pee, then." Uruha stood up and walked towards the bathroom. He felt Aoi smack his butt before he walked in.

~

"Lube, lube, and oh? What's this?" Ruki, Kai and Uruha were sitting around the mountain of gifts, unwrapping them.
"Lube." Uruha and Kai answered in unison, not bothering to look up.
"Yeah, yeah. Lube." Ruki unwrapped the long tube and read the label stuck onto it. The gifts Ruki recieved were mainly lubricants. There was organic lube, scented lube, tingly lube; all sorts of lubes.
"I got this," Kai said, holding up some soap and smelling it. Kai was especially happy today, although he wouldn't tell them why.
"Oooh! Dior!" Uruha said, holding up a baby nightie. Uruha looked around to where Ruki was bending over. A flash of blue and yellow made Uruha laugh out loud.
"Ruki. Is that Spongebob?"
Kai started to laugh too. "I guess Reita isn't into thongs."
"NO!" Ruki stood up and made a face at the two of them. "He's just, like, kinda too big to wear them...like...his thingy's too big."
"EEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWW!!" Uruha and Kai looked at each other and started to laugh and cover each other's ears. Ruki rolled his eyes and set down another bottle of lube.
"So I'm wearing them. It's, like, his loss anyway."
"Who lives in a pineapple, under the sea..." Kai sang quietly.
"HEY! Stop it, like, will you?" Ruki made another face at them.
Uruha stuck his tongue out at Ruki. They all laughed as Ruki unwrapped another bottle of lubricant. The doorbell rang.
Still chuckling, Ruki stood up. "I'll get it!!" He declared as he raced towards the door.
Swinging it open, the smile slid off his face.
It was Yumi.
From before they moved.
With a little boy.
Who looked exactly like Reita.

~

Sitting in the living room was strange. Yumi, her son, Rei, sat on the red loveseat, and Kai, Uruha and Ruki sat on the leather sofa across from her. Kai made everyone cups of tea, which Ruki left untouched. The situation was extremely awkward, and the gift wrap, Christmas decor and more importantly, the bottles of lube lying promiscuously about made matters slightly more awkward. Yumi's son wobbled around, holding onto the sofa edge and looking at everyone.
"So. Umm... Yumi! How are you?" Kai asked brightly.
Yumi's eyes wandered away from the lube and towards Kai.
"Oh...uh...fine, I guess. Having a son changes you." Yumi eyed Uruha's bump.
Uruha looked at Ruki, who was looking at the ceiling like he never actually saw it before.
"Yumi," Uruha started off. "Is Reita the father?"
Yumi sighed and looked at Ruki, then back at Kai and Uruha, who both nodded.
"Yes." She whispered. Ruki looked back at her. Uruha could see that he was biting the inside of his cheek.
"But I don't want to start anything with him again! I'm already married!!" Yumi said hurriedly. She eyed Uruha's pregnancy for a moment before continuing. "I just want to let him know he has a son out there in the world! He deserves to know that much." Yumi's eyes narrowed when she finished, as if she were mad at Reita.
Kai gasped. "Is that why you went psycho on Reita when you found out we were leaving for Tokyo?" Uruha snorted. Kai said psycho. Kai shot him a death glare and Uruha wrinkled his nose at Kai.
Yumi nodded. "Yup. But I've changed over the past two years; married someone else, had another child..."
Uruha wondered to himself. Has it really been nearly two years? Time goes by so fast. Yumi picked Rei up and Rei gave a soft coo of protest.
"Maa-mmy...down..." He said, touching Yumi's forehead. Yumi patted his head.
"Do you understand me, though?" Yumi directed this question at Ruki.
Ruki nodded. "I understand." He nodded again. "I have a step-son in this world now."
That's when everyone noticed the silver band on Ruki's finger.
Kai shrieked.
"OHMYGAWD! MIYAVI PROPOSED TO ME TOO!" He held up his hand and showed them the giant diamond ring on his finger.
Ruki's jaw dropped.
"Guys, you know they probably, like, all planned this."
"Those sneaky guys." Uruha shook his head in wonder.
"I'll just leave you guys be... Come on, Rei." Yumi held her son by the hand and walked out of the house. The three men escorted Yumi and her son out. Rei waved his little hand at them to say bye from Yumi's car. Uruha could see Ruki at the window until they were completely gone from the street.
When they closed the door, Kai squealed.
"I can't believe it! This is going to be so fun! Three weddings!"
"And two baby showers!!!" Ruki punched the air excitedly before clapping a hand over his mouth in realization of what he just said.
"It is," Uruha agreed, giving Ruki a curious look before going back to admiring his own white gold band with a princess-cut diamond set into it.
"Reita had, like, our names engraved on the inside." Ruki took off the ring to show it to them.
"Speaking of Reita, how are you going to tell him?" Kai asked.
"I think I'm going to invite Yumi and her son over for dinner."
"Lovely." Uruha exchanged a glance with Kai. What was Ruki going to do?
"Kai, are you, like, staying for dinner?"
"Of course! After what just happened, I feel I should. Plus, I wanna see the look on Reita's face when he finds out!"
"Ruki, are you mad though?" Uruha asked.
"I, like, don't really know how I feel. Actually, I have, like, another surprise for him."
"Oooohhh! What is it?" Kai asked.
"Sorry my dears. I gotta, like, tell Reita before anyone else. It, kinda like, concerns him."
"Oh my." Uruha looked at Kai again, who rubbed his chin thoughtfully, shining the diamond into their eyes.
"OWIE!" Uruha said, clapping a hand over his eye.
"Kai's, like, sucha show-off. Blinding us with that, like, huge rock on his little finger."
"Oooh!! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Kai dropped his hand and bowed to Uruha and Ruki continuously. It was like watching a chicken eat. "Sorrysorrysorrysorry!! How can I make it up to you guys???"
"You, like, could make us dinner!" Ruki suggested.
"Oh yeah! And we could watch the twins! Invite Miyavi over!" Uruha put in.
"Oh. Okay then!" Kai clapped his hands a bit, then grabbed his SUV keys (that Miyavi bought for him) and left the house to pick up the twins from daycare.

~

Dinner was dinner, and Yumi surprisingly fit in well.
Uruha remembered that she was actually an okay girlfriend, except for the fact that she complained a little too much and that she called Reita names he didn't like. The twins were resting in Aoi and Uruha's bedroom, and everyone sat around the little square kitchen table. Miyavi was resting his arm on the back of Kai's chair, Yumi sat in between Kai and Uruha. Ruki sat next to Miyavi and Reita, who was beside Aoi. Aoi, as usual sat with Uruha.
Despite the fact that Yumi was the only female present, she didn't seem to be uncomfortable at all. She laughed, chattered and reminisced along with all of them.
Uruha took a bite out of the beef Kai roasted. It was good. "Want some?" He offered his fork to Aoi, who had his forehead in his hand.
"Hmm? Oh sure, yeah." Aoi leaned in to take a bite, but Uruha could tell he was in another world.
Everyone but Reita sniggered when they brought up the topic of "ReiReiBunnyBuns". Kai made a lovely dinner, but Aoi wasn't eating much. Uruha saw that he wasn't really listening when Miyavi started a discussion about a song he wanted to write. Ruki and Yumi got on very well, and Reita was quite shocked when Yumi brought out her son.
"Say hi to your daddy," Yumi said, sitting down onto a kitchen table chair and standing Rei onto the floor. She stroked Rei's downy hair.
Rei toddled towards Aoi. "Hi daddy," He said. Everyone laughed.
Aoi smiled. Uruha could see how tired he looked. "Over there, little guy," Aoi said, turning Rei around into the direction of Reita.
"Hi daddy," Rei said again, waving to Reita. Uruha watched Ruki, who watched Reita, who picked Rei up.
They were so shockingly alike. Reita's face broke out in a large grin. He turned to Ruki with Rei in his arms. Ruki ran a finger along Reita's jawline. Reita took Ruki's hand and kissed it. It was as if it were only them two in the kitchen.
"Are you honestly okay with all this?" Reita whispered.
Ruki took a deep breath. "Yup." He replied softly.

After dinner, Uruha read his book in bed. Yumi left with Rei. She told them what hotel they were staying at with her husband and daughter. Uruha sighed contentedly. Things worked out so well for Yumi. He was glad for her. The white blankets covered his baby bump, and Uruha knew that the baby was sleeping. He heard Aoi gargle and spit into the sink before walking back into the bedroom.
"Hey," Aoi said, climbing into bed with Uruha.
"Hello there," Uruha replied, putting down the paperback to look at Aoi. Mhmm. The dark circles were back.
"What?" Aoi asked.
"I should be asking you that," Uruha murmured, trying to smooth out a wrinkle under Aoi's eyes with his thumb. Aoi was silent and still for quite a bit. He seemed to be debating with himself. He then shook his head and took a deep breath.
"Uruha. We have to go to Yokohama. I lied." Aoi's voice shook. "I wasn't there for a case. My mother's dying."

TO BE CONTINUED!!!

The Future Not Promised Chpt. Sixteen

2008-01-02T09:49:46Z

Warning: Extreme Seme Reita.
Chapter Sixteen: Uruha's Present

It was a bright, cheery morning as Ruki helped his mom out the front door. Reita sat on the couch behind them, obviously uncomfortable, but at what? He should be happy, after all, he would be free from Ruki's mother's bullying. But he did look impatient for them to leave.
Uruha hugged Ruki's mother and watched her walk towards the driveway.
"Take care, my dears!" Uruha's mother called from the limo they hired to drive them back home.
"Call me when the baby comes! Call me!" Ruki's mother made a phone out of her hands and held it next to her face. "Call me!" She said again.
"I love you!" Ruki called out to his mom, standing at the front door.
"Be careful!" Uruha waved both his hands to them.
"Bye!" Reita slammed the door shut and picked Ruki up.
"Whaa? Reita?" Ruki wriggled slightly.
Uruha could now see why Reita was so uncomfortable. He giggled at the little tent in Reita's dark jeans as he watched Reita run up the stairs, taking three of them at a time. The door to their bedroom slammed closed.

"God, Reita, what's with you?" Ruki complained as he was thrown onto the bed, the sheets caving in on him.
Reita took off his pants. "I've been waiting for too long now." The jeans were flung into a random direction.
Ruki giggled. "Ooh, Reita, you're so naughty."
Reita grunted in reply as he ridded himself of his boxers next. Seeing that Ruki had chosen to wear a complex outfit for the day, he decided to do something drastic. Ruki gasped when he saw what Reita got out of the drawers.
A pocket knife.
Taking it out, Reita flipped Ruki onto his stomach and ran the blade down his clothing, slitting them but leaving Ruki untouched. Ruki gasped again.
"Reita! My clothes!"
Reita smirked and turned Ruki over again, this time yanking off Ruki's fabric prisons. The clothes came off very easily, thanks to the cut Reita made. He threw them into another random direction. Ruki opened his mouth to give a squeal of indignation, which Reita caught in a hot kiss. Ruki's tongue and his danced together intensely. The kiss was very long, and left Ruki's breathing uneven and laboured. Reita started kissing everywhere else he could, and sucking on Ruki's neck, leaving a dark hickey.
"Wait," Ruki stopped Reita.
"What is it?"
"What about Uruha?"
"My God, what if he heard everything?"
"URUHA? ARE YOU THERE?" Ruki yelled.
"Yes," was the meek reply from downstairs.
Reita started to laugh.
"Oh! Um.. Uh.. I'm going to Kai's!" Uruha said.
"My keys are in the....are..in the..." Ruki started to become incoherent as Reita started kissing and licking his abdomen.
"Take my sports car. Keys are on the kitchen table." Reita called to Uruha.
"Thank you!"
Ruki sighed in contentment and ran a hand through Reita's blonde locks.
Grasping Ruki's ankle firmly, Reita lifted Ruki's leg and ran his tongue up it, starting from his inner thigh. That sent shivers of delight up Ruki's spine, making him hard.
With his black top still on, Reita sucked on the other thigh, leaving behind another hickey.
"Nnnhh...Reita..Just take me already..." Ruki panted.
"As you wish," Reita whispered into Ruki's ear, sending more chills down Ruki's back. Ruki kissed Reita's neck as he brushed by, reaching inside the drawer again.
"Shit," he heard Reita hiss.
"What?" Ruki murmured, sitting up.
Reita put his hands onto Ruki's shoulders, easing him gently back onto the bed.
"No condoms, babe. We're out of lube, too."
Ruki grabbed the closest thing he could reach, a whip. He slapped Reita with force and Reita winced in pain.
"Idiot, I said take me, so just take me already! It's not like you have an STD or anything."
Reita grinned and stroked Ruki. Ruki closed his eyes and moaned as he felt his body melt into the bed. Reita kept stroking until he felt Ruki pre-cum. He got some of it onto his hand and lubricated himself with it.
"Ready?"
"Hell yes."
Reita placed Ruki's legs onto his shoulders and gripped him firmly in place with his fingers on Ruki's creamy thighs. He slid in smoothly and heard Ruki moan and whimper. He pounded into Ruki fiercely.
"You, have, no, idea, how, long, I've, been, waiting," Reita growled with each thrust.
"Ohhh.." Ruki moaned again. "Rei... Oh God.."

Biting his lip in a grin, Reita hit Ruki's sweet spot.
"OH GOD!!" Ruki cried out, coming immediately onto Reita's abs.
"You like that?" Reita whispered into Ruki's ear as he thrusted with even more force into Ruki. "You like that?"
Ruki nodded and swallowed. He grabbed onto Reita's hard biceps and dug his fingernails in as he felt Reita prod again and again onto his prostate. Finally, Reita groaned as he came inside Ruki, his fingers pressing bruisingly into Ruki's thighs. Ruki mewled beneath him as he felt Reita's seed spill into him for the first time.
Reita collapsed on top of Ruki, kissing his bare shoulder. They were both silent as they panted for air. Reita pushed himself up to oversee what he had done to Ruki. He smiled as he saw the hickeys and bruises he marked Ruki with. Reita's grin widened when he saw Ruki's blushing face and closed eyes.
"God, you're so beautiful." Reita kissed Ruki's neck and inhaled in the scent of him. He loved it when Ruki smelled like this. Like sweat, like semen, like Reita himself. Like sex.
"Mmm. I love you." Ruki snuggled into Reita, pecking him on the cheek.
Keeping one arm wrapped around Ruki, Reita sat up slightly and rummaged around the bedside table. He got his cigarettes and lit one. Reita took a long drag from it and looked down at Ruki's napping face, taking a deep breath of satisfaction.

"How are you, Uruha?" Kai asked, sitting down across from Uruha on an armchair.
"Oh, not bad, Ruki and Reita are at home; doing it, so I guess I should leave them alone." Uruha replied.
"Good idea," Kai nodded. "I remember walking in on them once. Not pleasant."
They both shivered slightly.
"They're so dirty."
"I know."
"Whose dirty?" Ruki asked, walking into the apartment alone.
"Where's Reita?" Uruha asked back.
"I totally asked first! Now answer!" Ruki said, sitting next to them and poking Uruha.
"Fine, fine. You're dirty. Now where's Reita?"
"Photoshoot."
"Oh gosh! Today's Christmas you guys! We should do something! After all, I did buy some presents and I wanna see your reactions when you open them!" Kai said.
"Oh yes. We should. Let's go!" Uruha said.
"OHOH! I have these Christmas decorations I really wanna use too. Miyavi bought some Christmas stuff at Barney's from New York and I asked him to get more. They're so cute!" Kai leapt across the apartment to the coat closet, where he pulled out a large box.
"Whoa. That thing, is so totally HUGE." Ruki gaped at the box, his eyes glued to it. "Whose gonna carry it, though?" He asked, turning back towards Uruha and Kai.
"Hi Ruki!" Uruha waved to Ruki, smiling.
"Oh gawd." Uruha was caressing his bump to emphasize it and Kai was holding onto the stroller with the twins in it. Itoshii and Miyabi were in matching raindeer outfits, fast asleep.
"I have to hold the box, don't I?" Ruki asked dryly.
"Yup!" Uruha walked towards the door and held it open for Kai, who wheeled the babies out of the apartment.
Ruki bent over to pick up the giant carton. Kai and Uruha laughed. "OH.MYGOSH! What do you HAVE in this thing, Kai? So... Heavy... If only... Reita was here!" Ruki's face was pink from the effort. "I'm so totally, like, gonna kill you guys for this!"
Kai and Uruha laughed again as the three of them walked back home.

~

A lot of people were invited to their little party, from Jui and Shinya to Nao and Saga. The twins were put into Uruha's room to sleep. Every inch of the living room and kitchen was decorated with Kai's decorations. Hiroto was pointing at the polaroid photos on the walls and laughing at them with Kanon. A massive pile of presents was underneath the joke of a Christmas Tree. Kai didn't have a tree with him, so Ruki called Reita to bring one in. Reita didn't know it was for the party and brought in an extremely small one from the modeling office. In fact, it was so tiny that it was more of a tree on top of a pile of presents than the other way around.
Uruha sat on the leather couch with Ruki.
"How long?" Uruha asked nervously.
"You asked that five minutes ago already."
"Just tell me, Ruki."
Ruki pouted. "Fine. Ten minutes until Aoi gets home."
Shou walked over and sat next to them.
"Merry Christmas, you guys!" He said, handing Ruki a flute of champagne.
"Oooh! A bendy straw!" Ruki took a long sip from it, lying down on the couch.
"Thanks Shou! You too." Uruha hugged Shou.
"How long until the baby's due?" Shou asked.
"Six weeks."
"Or SO. The doctors, like, say, anyway. I THINK, I think, that the doctors are, like, totally out to get us. They get us all, like, dependant-y on them and then BAM! Epidemic strikes the world and we totally need them and they'll all be evil or whatever and won't help us." Ruki rested his drink onto Uruha's large belly and bent the straw downwards.
"Hey! I'm not a drink rest, you know!" Uruha said indignantly. Ruki leaned in for a drink when Uruha's baby kicked forcefully suddenly. That caused to bump to bounce slightly and the drink spilled onto Ruki's head. Ruki fell off the couch in surprise.
"OH.MYGOSH! The baby so totally, like, did that on purpose!!!"
Shou and Uruha looked at each other, slightly weirded out by Ruki. Reita came and picked Ruki up.
"Noooooo... Reita!! It's a PARTY! I, like, don't WANNA have sex, like, now!! Noooooo! Reitaaaa! Noooooo..." Reita carried Ruki upstairs, stayed up there for several minutes, then came back down, looking amused.
"Nothing to worry about, everyone. He's just a little drunk from the bubbly. That's all." Everyone chuckled and continued to party.
The doorbell rang, and Kai hopped to the door to answer it. It was Aoi, smiling with snow dusting his shoulders. He was carrying a large leather suitcase.
"Hey, man!" Tora gave him a high five. Reita and Aoi clapped hands and thumped each other on the back. People circled around him to greet him.
Uruha stood up. "I'm gonna go say hi,"
"Sure," Shou replied.
Uruha tottered towards the crowd of people and Aoi had spotted him. He broke apart from the crowd and walked to Uruha.
"Hi Aoi, I missed you," Uruha said shyly. Was this man seriously cheating on him?
"Hey baby. I missed you too." Aoi gently but firmly placed his large hands onto Uruha's cheeks, pulling him in for a soft kiss. People watched on as a minute passed by. And another...
"WHOOOOO!" People whistled and whooped. Uruha blushed.
And another... Aoi ran the tip of his tongue quickly across Uruha's bottom lip.
"Get a room, you two!" Jui squealed as he walked by them.
After what seemed like forever, Aoi finally pulled away, staring into Uruha's eyes. Uruha looked back and saw he had a little smile on his face, like he knew something Uruha didn't. Everyone went back to partying.
"Come," Aoi said, picking his suitcase up and pulling at Uruha's wrist. Uruha followed Aoi as he brushed by everyone, finally reaching the little tree. He let go of Uruha's wrist, and kneeled down to open his case. Uruha gasped when he saw the amount of gifts inside. Aoi pulled them out, one by one and put them under the tree. Uruha helped him. He saw some for Miyavi, Reita...even one for the twins...
After they finished, Aoi helped Uruha stand back up again.
"Wait here," Aoi said. Uruha nodded as he watched Aoi whisper something to Reita. Reita's face broke out in a grin and he glanced at Uruha, then quickly back at Aoi. Aoi nodded, and smiled too. Reita called out to Miyavi, and said something to him. Miyavi acted as Reita did and looked briefly at Uruha before back at Aoi.
Uruha was confused. Are they planning to embarrass him again?
Aoi tapped the pocket of his crisp black pants. Suddenly, they broke out of their huddle and Reita clapped his hands together loudly. Aoi walked back towards Uruha, still grinning.
"HEY EVERYONE! AOI HAS SOMETHING TO SAY!" Miyavi yelled. Everyone was silenced immediately.
"Hi everyone." Aoi said.
"Hiiiiii Aoiiii." Everyone responded, as if this were all planned.
"Okay. As you know, I was away for several weeks on a case in Yokohama. I was also searching for something. Something special. Something special for someone special."
Everyone chuckled. Uruha, too, smiled.
"In case you didn't know, this person beside me is Uruha." Aoi tenderly pulled Uruha forward, as if presenting him. Uruha smiled weakly and gave a little wave to the crowd of people now watching him. It was like there was a spotlight on him. "He is the love of my life and tonight, I want to ask him something."
The spotlight got brighter. Uruha lost his smile in his surprise and looked at Aoi.
Was he going to do what Uruha thought he was going to do?
To Uruha's immense shock, Aoi got down on one knee.
Uruha's eyes got wider and his hands started to shake.
Aoi smiled up at Uruha as he pulled something out of his pocket.
A little velvet box.
A ring.
Tears sprung to Uruha's eyes.
Aoi opened the box and said the words, "Uruha, will you marry me?"
Uruha started to cry. "Y-yes, Aoi!" Uruha whispered, throwing his arms around Aoi's neck.
Aoi gave Uruha a kiss on the neck and everybody started to clap.
A foreign tear on Uruha's cheek told him that Aoi was crying too.

The Future Not Promised Chpt. Fifteen

Chapter Fifteen: Not Really Shizukesa After All.

After dinner, everyone went off to do their own thing. Ruki and Reita went upstairs, Uruha's mother went to go take a shower, and Uruha was left alone in the living room with Ruki's mother.
"How are you, Uruha?" She asked, knitting.
"I'm as well as I can be, I guess."
"And the baby?"
"Doing well. Kai's giving me this vegetable juice to drink so the baby can 'live up to its full potential'."
"Vegetable juice, huh? In my day, we didn't have those weird, new-fangled nutrient cocktails. Which gender do you think the baby is?"
"My mom said it's a girl, Reita and Miyabi are betting that its a boy. Ruki says it doesn't matter either way because supposedly in the world of visual kei, you can hardly tell."
"And Aoi?"
"Oh, Aoi says that he'll love the baby even if it had nine toes."
"Lovely."
The two sat in comfortable silence, when all of a sudden--
"Mmm, Ruki, baby, you smell so good."
"Nnnnhh....Rei..."
Uruha looked up in amusement. It came from Ruki's bedroom. Ruki's mother stood up.
"Excuse me for a moment." She said. Uruha stifled a giggle as he watched her step upstairs to break things up.
Reita must be going crazy for the past few weeks. Everytime he and Ruki got close to being intimate, Ruki's mother always intervened. Uruha laughed and he too went upstairs to sleep.

The next day, Uruha sat at the kitchen table with his mother, wrapping gifts for the holidays. Actually, his mother was wrapping them and Uruha was helping as best as he could. He was getting quite big now, and last night he discovered he couldn't fit in anything besides sweatpants. Uruha had went to Kai in tears for advice and comfort.
"It's quite alright, deary. I'm sure Aoi," His mother had trouble saying his name without an irritated tone of voice, "would still find you attractive."
"Maybe he doesn't already! Maybe that's why he's cheating on me!" Uruha started to breathe in and out rapidly.
"Well, you heard it from Midori right? There's a chance he isn't... But if he is, you can always go home with me! I'll take care of both you and the baby!" Uruha's mother looked hopeful.
"Mother! I'm fine on my own." Uruha said firmly, but secretly he still felt some doubt in his heart.

"WE'RE BACK! OH.MYGOSH! Those shoppers were, like, vicious! They nearly clawed me totally to death. I think I could have, like, lost an eyeball out there!" Ruki burst into the kitchen with his cheeks pink from the cold outside.
"Oh hush, you. Stop being dramatic." Ruki's mother said cheerfully, walking in after Ruki.
WIth staggering steps, Reita walked in also, carrying many wrapped boxes and shopping bags. In fact, there were so many that they were stacked in a pile that covered his face. He said something inaudible.
"Hey sweetie, do you, like, need any help with that?" Ruki stepped forward in concern to help Reita.
"No, no! Reita's fine!" Ruki's mom waved a hand of impatience. "Unless of course, he's not manly enough to handle those packages. ARE you, Reita? ARE YOU?" She squelched up one eye and leaned forward to the quivering pile of parcels.
Reita twisted his neck around the pile to meet her gaze. He panted from the effort. "Yeah, sure, I'm okay." He glanced at Ruki who was trying to not giggle. Uruha smiled and turned away.
"We should bake gingerbread cookies," Uruha's mother said. "And hand out candy canes..."
"HEY! WAIT A MINUTE! What about the revenge on Mi-what's-her-name?" Ruki's mother interrupted.
"You mean, like, the bitch?" Ruki suggested.
"Yes! The bitchy bitch!"
"Right..." Uruha said.
"Oh! That will be such fun!" Uruha's mother beamed at all of them. Reita set down the presents onto the coffee table and went to the bathroom.
"Right, right. Now, I have a plan. I've got the blueprints to that weird building of hers, the numbers to the JP Weekly paparazzos and some people willing to help me." There was silence following Ruki's mother's words, at least on Uruha and Ruki's half anyway. Uruha's mother was still wrapping presents, humming softly.
"Blueprints?" Uruha asked weakly.
"And WHAT sort of people, like, are willing to help you, mom? They aren't those totally, like, wacked out people that, like, have escaped from prison, are they?" Ruki asked suspiciously.
"Not all of them."
"WHAT?!?!" Ruki and Uruha both leapt up from their seats. Uruha's mother kept on humming.
"MOM!" Ruki yelped.
"What? They aren't insane or anything... Well, they'd have to be kinda insane to help us with what I have planned out."
"This should be interesting." Uruha whispered to Ruki.
He nodded.

Uruha sat nervously in the Shizukesa building, waiting anxiously for something to happen. It seemed that Christmas was a very popular time to be born, because nurses were running around, helping those in labour.

"Oh, no." Uruha said to himself when he saw Ruki, his mother, a suspicious looking man, Miyavi, Kai and the twins coming near the door. Miyavi and Kai were in sunglasses, obviously to hide from the paparazzi that were stalking them non-stop. They entered the building inconspicuously, for everyone was too busy or too much in pain to realize that anyone had come in. Uruha watched in increasing astonishment as Ruki's mother laid a large poster-sized plan onto the coffee table and pointed every which way, at the vents, at the fountain, at the front door.
This was going to be baaad.
Getting up from his chair, Uruha decided to end this before a disaster should occur. He took a few steps, when suddenly everyone seemed to crowd around him, shouting orders and poking him.
"QUICK. IS THIS GUY GIVING BIRTH?" A large nurse with a tiny white cap stood in front of him, screaming to a tall blonde swedish woman.
"HIS WATER BROKE. I THINK HIS WATER BROKE. NEVER MIND! IT'S JUST A--" She screamed back
"I hope it's a girl." Said a little girl to her grandmother.
"It's a boy, he's holding it like a boy." She replied.
"NO---"
"--YOU--"
"CRANK 'DAT SOUL---"
" NO DANCING IN THE FOY--"
"LADIES!"
There was chaos everywhere, and worst of all, Uruha couldn't see what the group was doing anymore. "With my current luck, they just might make something explode." He muttered to himself.

There was a small boom.
Uruha smacked his forehead. He spoke too soon. Everyone started screaming, or rather, adding to the screaming already happening. Uruha looked around frantically for Ruki and the rest, hoping they were okay. There was smoke building up, and a terrible stench filling the building. Uruha saw that in the corner of his eye, the suspicious looking man was setting off stink-bombs. The smoke detectors found the gas, and was now making irritating beeping noises, as well as activating the sprinklers. Water was now spraying everywhere, on the expensive couches, onto the patients, onto everyone in general.
"TO THE HOSPITAL!" Someone cried out, and it was pandemonium.
Stretchers and guerneys full of people in labour spilled out of the front doors, with others pushing, pulling, talking, yelling, crying and jumping behind them.
And then, just when things couldn't get any worse, the paparazzi appeared. They seemed to find out where Kai and Miyavi were and started to furiously take pictures at the front door of them evacuating the Shizukesa. Uruha followed the crowd, not that he had a choice, everybody soaking wet from the still-active sprinklers.
He glanced back.
Uruha managed to make out the image of a drenched Midori, stepping out of her office and looking around her building. Behind her, the trees were knocked down, and a hysterical someone seemed to have crashed through the window, leaving a person-shaped hole in the glass. One of the couches had been turned to its side and the building was deserted. Leaves scattered the spotty floors.
"ARGHHH!" Midori screamed and yelled out. Uruha stood there, in utter shock. The crowd left him behind and Midori spotted him.
"YOU." She growled, stepping quickly towards Uruha, who was terrified. Uruha looked around helplessly, for someone to help him. Ruki and his mother appeared from the doorway once they saw that Uruha and Midori were still inside.
"YOU DID THIS! YOU GOT JEALOUS, DIDN'T YOU? NASTY LITTLE BRAT. AOI DOESN'T LOVE YOU. GET THAT IN YOUR TINY HEAD!"
Midori had this insane spark in her eye, to go along with the snarl on her face.

"Oh, no, that girl just DID NOT." Ruki raised his eyebrows and crossed his arms.
"Oh, no, sweetheart." Ruki's mother stepped forward, so that her face was mere inches away from Midori's. "You have got issues, you know. I suggest you leave Uruha alone, before something else happens to you! Also, double your medication, hun." Grabbing Uruha and Ruki by the arms, they stepped out of the ruined Shizukesa.

~

When they got back to the house, everyone sat in the living room. Kai sat next to Miyavi, who had Itoshii in his lap, and Uruha's mother played with Miyabi.
"That was fun." Ruki smiled and crossed his legs.
"That was horrible! Never do that again!" Uruha buried his face in his hands.
"Oh ho ho, my dear. That was phase one." Ruki's mother informed him, and Uruha's mother nodded.
"PHASE ONE?" Uruha went deeper into his hands. Miyabi clapped his hands, giggled and looked positively delighted at the fact that there was more to come.
"Calm down, Uruha dear. It's not good for the baby to be agitated." Uruha looked up and his mother patted his shoulder.
"What do you guys have planned?" Uruha asked nervously.
Kai looked at Miyavi and responded.
"Oh, a bit of this, a bit of that."
Ruki nodded and rested his head on Uruha's lap.
Uruha groaned.
"Uruha, sweetheart, I forgot to tell you. Aoi called this morning."
"Really?" Uruha stood up and Ruki fell off the couch.
"Yes, he's coming back tomorrow night, he says."
"OH! Aya! That means we have to go home tomorrow morning!!" Ruki's mother said.
"How come?" Ruki asked from the floor.
"To be secretive. We don't want him to know we were here!"
"After all, we didn't even tell Reita about what we were doing because Reita would tell Aoi." Uruha's mother added.
"Err... Should I be listening to all this?" Miyavi asked.
"I suppose not." Uruha's mother said serenely.
"We should put him to sleep." Ruki's mother suggested.
Miyavi jumped up in fear and handed Itoshii to Kai.
"Just kidding!" Ruki put in hastily. "They were just kidding!! RIGHT, mom?"
"Sure, sure."
"Just when things were getting started, too!" Uruha's mother said regretfully.
"Another time, Aya, another time."
Uruha and Ruki glanced at each other. When will this other time be?

The Future Not Promised Chpt. Fourteen

2007-12-09T12:06:34Z

Chapter Fourteen: Cat Problem

"Um..guys..I don't really think we should be doing this," Uruha whispered nervously.
Ruki's mother, Uruha's mother, Ruki and Uruha were standing on a busy street corner, spying on Midori. They were following her around all day, recording what she did, who she did it with. They were now hiding behind a tall gray marble building with tinted windows and security guards.
"Oh lighten up, darling. Here, have a sandwich." Uruha's mother smilingly handed Uruha a sandwich. Uruha looked confusedly at the sandwich, then put it into his coat pocket. It was December now, and quite cold. Snow fell onto the rushing passerbys, who occasionally stared at the group. Uruha didn't blame them, they were quite a sight.
Uruha's mother (who usually didn't wear pants) was wearing a pink dress suit, with a billowing skirt, pearls and a big straw hat with matching pink ribbon. She carried a large picnic basket, from which she gave Uruha the sandwich.
Ruki's mother was wearing an outfit similar to Uruha's mother's, only dark blue in colour and she wore a pair of large opaque purple sunglasses.
And Ruki insisted on wearing one of his disguises from the shopping trip where they first met Midori. It consisted of an electric pink feather boa, red sunglasses with winged and bejewelled frames, orange and blue striped acrylic nails, a dirty-blonde wig with dreadlocks and coffee-brown highlights, and a green plaid trenchcoat.

In other words, they stood out.
Uruha didn't know whether this was good or not. He rubbed his gigantic belly, feeling the baby move around. He didn't care whether Aoi wanted the baby or not. If he really were cheating on him, then Uruha would want to keep the baby. He felt as if he already had a connection with it, something besides the obvious physical connection that they already have.
"Quiiiiiiiiiickk!! She's coming!" Ruki's mother hissed. They all hastily shuffled behind the wall of a tall building, and watched Midori stepped out of it and into a car. "OOohh. Her car's nice. Copy down the license plate, Ruki dear," Ruki's mother continued.
"Love her shoes," Uruha's mother beamed from the ground, where she spread a picnic blanket and set up their lunch. People on the streets were having an awkward time stepping around the food and blanket. Others just didn't care and dropped their cigarette butts and stepped on the once pristine blanket with their slush-encrusted shoes.
"MOM! Get up from there! It's not very safe to do that when you're downtown!" Uruha helped his mother up and held the basket as Ruki helped pick up the sandwiches and brush off the blanket.
"She got away!" Ruki's mother squawked when the car quickly drove away.
"Well, this totally sucks. The wicked bitch of west got away." Ruki frowned.
"Let's just go home," Uruha pleaded.
"Why? Aren'cha feeling well?" Ruki asked.
Uruha saw his way out. "Well. Now that I think about it, I'm feeling kind of tired..." Uruha coughed slightly, to add dramatic effect.
"Oh FINE. It was fun while it lasted. We'll take it up again tomorrow." Ruki's mother clapped her hands and two tall men appeared, taking the basket out of Uruha's mother's hands, and escorting them to their ride home.

~

"So. What'cha doing?" Uruha walked into Ruki and Reita's room, where Ruki had set up a laptop and seemed to be Facebook-ing like crazy with his eyes glued to the screen. Reita was on the bed with his eyes closed.
"Oh, like, the usual. How are you?"
"Aoi called."
"Oh?"
"Yeah, he's coming back in a week."
"Ohh.. That means that we have, like, a week to destroy Midori!" Ruki stamped his fingers with force onto the keyboard.
"What's this about destroying someone?" Reita asked from the bed.
"Oh, nothing. Just some conspiracies, a little business here and there." Ruki said lightly. Uruha nodded.
"You know what business I want to do right now?" Reita asked Ruki again, sitting up this time.
Ruki turned from the computer to roll his eyes at Uruha. Uruha giggled. Reita walked over to the little desk, towering over Ruki and picking him up to smother him in a huge kiss, with lots of tongue. Ruki's hands laced into Reita's hair and Reita grabbed at Ruki's butt. Ruki straddled Reita standing up (yes, Ruki is that short) and Reita walked around the room blindly, still devouring at Ruki's lips. Uruha edged towards the door, in fear that they will manage to coax him into a threesome. Knowing Ruki, he just might. The two bumped into the wall and staggered towards the bed, still managing to keep their lips interlocked. Uruha creeped out of the room and closed the door softly.

"Oh hello, dear!" Uruha's mother was at the top of the stairs, carrying a basket full of fresh laundry. She was walking into Uruha and Aoi's old room, where she and Ruki's mother stayed in, currently. "Just did some laundry. I found some baby clothes in the room and washed it in that Ivory Snow soap I used when YOU were just a baby yourself. You were such a delightful baby. You cried less than Sayuri and Kazuki, that's for sure, " She continued, referring to Uruha's older sisters. "How fast children grow up...It seemed only yesterday that I was bandaging your scraped knees." Uruha's mother sighed, rambling on as she went into the room to fold the clothes.
Uruha sighed himself, feeling bad for his mother. She had to watch one of her children be stuck in a situation such as this.
He walked down the stairs, finding Ruki's mother reading a copy of Good Housekeeping that she brought on the red loveseat.
"Hello there, Uruha dear." She said.
"Hi!"
"How are you." She asked, looking up from the magazine. There was a loud thud from upstairs. They both looked up at the ceiling.
"What was that..." She scratched at her chin.
Uruha immediately thought of Ruki and Reita doing God knows what upstairs. "Um..I don't know...Probably a cat fell on the roof. Yeah, we have a real cat problem here." Uruha improvised. He silently congratulated himself on his quick thinking. Yes, go Uruha.
"Hmm. Do we now..." Ruki's mother stood up and speed-walked upstairs. Uruha stalked behind her quietly.
To his immense horror, Ruki's mother flung open the door of Ruki and Reita's bedroom and stood at the doorway.
"Hello, Ruki dear. Please don't make so much noise. I can hear you from downstairs. Oh, and Reita, get off my son and put that shirt back on. No one needs to see that." She brushed passed Uruha as she walked back downstairs again. Uruha peeped in to see what had happened.
Reita, was indeed shirt-less and was lying on one side of the bed and Ruki the other, as is Reita had just rolled off Ruki. Ruki was still fully clothed and both had on a hilariously shocked and startled expression on their faces. They didn't seem to notice Uruha and Uruha backed out.
Uruha managed to contain his laughter until he reached his own room, where he sat on the bed and burst into an insane fit of laughter. It lasted several minutes until his stomach hurt and the baby kicked in annoyance. Still giggling, Uruha caressed the bump and patted it. "Sorry." He said to it. Uruha then suddenly visionized his baby, toddling around then walking and witnessing what Ruki's mother just saw. Oh my.
Uruha started to laugh again.
Ruki popped his head in.
"Hey." Uruha said.
"Hi," Ruki grumbled and plopped down on the bed beside Uruha. "You saw what just happened, right?"
Uruha nodded, trying not to laugh at poor Ruki.
"Yeah. I don't have any, like, privacy! Seriously. No one does in this house. Totally."
"Here's a thought! Stop doing things you shouldn't be doing in broad daylight!"
"Hmph. Well, like, easy for you to say. Reita's like, horny all, the freakin' time, God, seriously... And when he talks to you, you feel like doing anything and I so totally mean anything, he asks you to do...no matter how, like, degrading it is the next day..."
"LALALA! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!" Uruha covered his ears to avoid hearing anymore of Ruki's complaints about Reita being horny.
"Mm. Well. I'm gonna, like, go out for some food. Wanna go anywhere?"
Uruha considered for a moment.
"Kai's."

~

"HELL. Yes." Ruki relaxed in Kai's heated apartment after 15 minutes standing around in a freezing cold subway. Kai was in the kitchen, getting drinks and Uruha was sitting with Ruki on the white couch, playing with Miyabi and Itoshii. Miyabi could now throw things and Itoshii could roll over. Their personalities were beginning to show too. Miyabi was fun, but boisterous and according to Miyavi, liked to cry at 3, 4, and 6AM in the morning. Itoshii was sweet, rarely cried, but occasionally gets awakened by Miyabi's morning wails and cried along with him.
The apartment was five rooms in total. One bedroom and washroom for Miyavi and Kai, one bedroom and washroom for the twins when they grow older, and a joined dining, living and cooking area.
"Alright." Kai set the mugs of hot chocolate down onto the wooden coffee table.
"So what's new with you, Kai?" Uruha asked, taking a sip.
"Miyavi's in Switzerland. I mentioned one thing that I fancied, and BAM! he flies there to get it for me. That man spoils me," Kai beamed at a framed picture of him on the clean white counter of the kitchen.
"Oooh! Marshmallows. And a candy cane?" Ruki fished the little candy out of his mug and looked at Kai.
"It's nearly Christmas! Getting into the spirit!" Kai said cheerfully, picking Itoshii up and cradling him in his arms.
"OH! Right. Time to start the Christmas shopping, eh, Uruha?" Ruki nudged Uruha with his elbow.
"OOOH! Let's all start now! Nothing like shopping to get Midori out of your head!" Kai said excitedly. "Oops."
"Midori..." Uruha looked thoughtful. "What should I get her for Christmas?"
"Nothing." Kai said simply.
"Oh! For the first day of Christmas you should give that bitch, a bitch slap to show her whose booosss." Ruki sang the old Christmas carol, modifying the lyrics to make it fit with the occasion. Kai and Uruha laughed and the twins clapped their little hands. Ruki stood on the coffee table and bowed.

The trio left the babies with the moms in the house, and decided to do some Christmas shopping at the nearest, mega-mall. It was fun, but squished. Many people decided to do the same, strangely enough.
Inside a little boutique, Ruki went slightly crazy and declared to buy a bunch of thongs for Reita to jumpstart a promising collection and tried to convince the other two to do the same.
"Err...I think I'll pass..." Kai said, looking up from the lacey sock display to pat Ruki on the shoulder.
"Yeah, Ruki. I think I'd rather buy some cologne for Reita. You buy the thongs."
"FINE. I WILL! JUST, LIKE, WATCH ME." Ruki stomped towards the thongs, where he grabbed a leopard-skin, a black pair, a red pair, several sequined ones, and, to their great amusement, Spongebob ones.
"Spongebob, Ruki?" Kai asked doubtfully.
"Why not? Reita loves Spongebob." Ruki said defensively.
"Sure, sure. I'm surprised that the store even carries those," Uruha said, shrugging.
"Find anything?" Ruki inquired.
"Yeah, I really liked the purple pants you gave me that one time, the ones with the thigh-thingies? They were really comfy. I found a pair in black!" Uruha held them up triumphantly.
"Oh yes. You do have totally gorgeous thighs, hun." Ruki nodded.
Kai shook his head. "This store isn't really me." He said.
"Then let's pay and go."

They shuffled out of the store and went into an Apple store, where Kai got an iPhone for Miyavi. He was getting it wrapped in some nice silver paper while Ruki was putting on a performance for the employees and customers by standing on a display and singing random words to a melody he made up.
He was surprisingly good.
"...I swore I at that time.
I will walk life that shines highest;
There is no fear. It gets it over though, there is a painful day too!
Now let’s go. The wing expands and goes,
To look for freedom and the glory.
The world that extends to the place waits,
Surely for you..."
People whistled, looked embarassed, dropped yen bills in a pile in front of him, clapped, all sorts of things. The employees didn't escort him out; they were even getting attention from the people outside, luring them in.
When Kai was finished, everyone applauded for Ruki, who hammed it up and bowed. Uruha beamed at Ruki when he finally climbed off the display and left the store.
"You should be famous, Ruki!" Kai said happily.
"Thank you, Kai!" Ruki looked pretty pleased with himself. They kept walking.
Uruha sighed in contentment as he continued along the mall with his two closest friends, forgetting about Midori, even if it only for a little while.

The Future Not Promised Chpt. Thirteen

2007-11-25T23:40:57Z

Chapter Thirteen: Family Reunion.

"Uruha. Did you hear me?" Aoi shifted on the bed slightly to touch Uruha on the shoulder. "I have to go to Yokohama next week for a case."
Uruha flinched. "Yeah. I heard you." He whispered. Uruha hadn't been feeling well ever since Midori had told him the news. Uruha didn't tell Aoi what Midori said yet.
"Are you feeling okay?" Aoi looked worried.
Tears burned at Uruha's eyes. Aoi was such a good actor. He sighed and felt the baby move around inside him.
Poor baby, Uruha thought. Growing up either without a father around or with Midori. Both choices weren't that great.
Uruha felt Aoi put the back of his hand on his forehead.
"You're feeling kinda warm."
Uruha closed his eyes.
Maybe it was all a bad dream....

~

Uruha's eyes fluttered open. He started shivering.
"Aoi.." Uruha's first instinct was to call out for him. He wasn't there.
Where was he...
Oh yes.
In Yokohama.
Back to sleep.

~

Uruha's teeth started to chatter so much that it made little clicky noises and he couldn't sleep. He was so cold.
"Heyyy babyy..Where are you?" Ruki opened the door to find Uruha curled up underneath the sheets as best as he could without hurting the baby. "OH.MYGOSH!! URUHA!?!?" Ruki leapt across the room in one bound to gingerly examine Uruha. "REITA! GET YOUR ASS IN HERE!" He yelled towards the door.
"Ru..ki..?" Uruha opened an eye.
"Shhh....It's okay sweetie...it's okay..." Ruki rubbed Uruha's back.
"Where are you?" Uruha could hear Reita's voice faintly from the hall.
"LIKE, WHERE ELSE?" Ruki yelled back.
Reita came inside and walked towards Uruha in a calm manner. "Hmm." He put the back of his hand onto Uruha's face. It felt like ice on his forehead.
"Uruha?" He said gently, like a doctor. "You're gonna be alright, okay? You just seem to be kind of feverish."
Uruha nodded slightly and closed his eyes. He heard Reita murmur something to Ruki.
Hmm.
Interesting.

~

"Uruha?" Uruha heard Kai. But it was faint, really faint. He opened his eyes reluctantly again.
"Hi." Kai said. "You feeling okay?"
Uruha shook his head then gave a gasp. The room was spinning.
"Oh dear." Kai helped Uruha sit up slightly so he could drink some water.
Uruha went back to sleep, hoping nobody would wake him up again. He felt Kai cover him with the blankets.

~

Uruha was unaware of what happened next, but he could feel a hand on his forehead again. Although Reita's hand was soft (he used a daily lotion), this hand was different. Familiar in a way.
"Uruha?" This voice was familiar too. It made Uruha homesick.
"Mom?" Uruha's eyes opened again. Yes. It was his mother, sitting on the edge of the bed. Ruki's mom was behind her, too, along with Ruki.
"Sweetheart, are you alright?" Uruha's mother tucked Uruha's hair behind his ear and stroked his face. Uruha also noticed that one of her hands were resting on the swollen belly. "Where's.." Uruha's mother swallowed and pursed her lips. "Where's Aoi?" She asked. Uruha's mother frowned slightly when his name was mentioned.
Uruha started to cry. The tears he held back were finally released and his mother gently lifted him up and cradled him (as best as she could) in her arms. Uruha's head pounded and it was hard to sit up.
"You're going to be okay. Mommy's here."
Ruki's mother swelled up in indignation. "Where IS that boy when you need him. He can't just LEAVE like this! You could be on your DEATHBED for all we know! I assume that he's the father of your unborn child." She asked dramatically in her strange way, referring to Aoi. Ruki nodded.
"Yeah, mom." He said.
Uruha's mother pressed her cheek against Uruha's forehead and stayed with him even after he fell asleep.

The next two days had been a blur for Uruha. He was sick, the doctor was called many times to make sure the baby was doing fine as well as he was. Of course, now Uruha was feeling better, but still fragile, like a single puff can blow him away. The two mothers had been taking care of Uruha and Ruki, as well as Reita, who avoided Ruki's mother on account of being afraid of her.
Now Uruha sat on a kitchen chair, drinking tea and watching Ruki stack toothpicks on top of another. It was like when they were children; their mothers were very close friends.
Ruki's mother came in. Like Ruki, she was short and had recently dyed her hair a dark mahogany. She was also plump, with a pleasant face and Ruki's eyes. Ruki looked like his father, however. Today she was wearing an old-fashioned two-piece skirt suit with round black buttons and a dark burgandy flower print. She swelled up with pride when she saw Ruki and Uruha.
"How are my two favourite boys?" She gushed when she came in. She grabbed Ruki's face and held it firmly between her big palms as she kissed both his cheeks many times. Uruha laughed. Ruki's face flushed bright red when she released his head.
"MOM!"
Ruki's mother only laughed heartily and ruffled Ruki's hair.
"How are you, Uruha dahling." She never asked questions like a question. She said them as if it were a statement.
"I'm doing okay." Uruha said.
A few seconds of silence passed by.
"Um, may I ask a question?" Uruha asked timidly.
"You already have, dahling, so you might as well."
"How did you and my mom know to come?"
"Well. Ruki dear called us. He said something about someone being pregnant and sick at the same time, so we left as soon as we heard." Uruha nodded.
"Of course," She continued. "I would have expected it to be RUKI to be the one that's pregnant! He was always the wild one." She ruffled Ruki's hair again. "Wilder than his brother, that's for sure." She poured herself a cup of tea.
"How's my dad?" Uruha asked.
"Oh, he's doing wonderfully. He recently won the lottery, in fact. Not that he needs it." Ruki's mother rubbed her fleshy hands together, and her many rings sparkled in the light.
"Oh, Uruha, I see you're awake." Uruha's mother walked in, carrying a plastic bag of groceries. She was still a bit young, having married early to her much older husband. She was around fourty-four now and she smiled lovingly at Uruha as she set down the groceries she brought in. Her hair was always in a bun, from what Uruha remembered, and she was tall and willowy, with a few laugh lines developing on the face that resembled Uruha so much.
"Have I shown you the pictures of Hideki yet?" Uruha's mother asked, referring to Uruha's nephew. "He's five now!" She produced some photographs from her wallet. They showed a little boy in a blue striped shirt with a tall woman that looked like Uruha's father.
"And Haru, too!" She continued excitedly, showing some more pictures of a younger boy sticking his tongue out.
"Wow!" Ruki said, examining the photos. "They both look like their dad ]though..."
"WHAT? Let me see that!" Ruki's mother took one of the photos and looked at it closely. "They look NOTHING like Kaoru!"
Uruha sighed, putting the pictures back onto the table. Aoi was still on his mind. He thought they were perfect, meant for each other. He even believed that Aoi really loved him, and Midori only proved him wrong. Tears filled his eyes once again, but Uruha was getting tired of crying. Why was he so weak? Then he looked up.
Ruki, Ruki's mom and his own mother were watching him.
"Are you feeling a bit under the weather?" Uruha's mother asked him gently.
"Oh, Aya. Can't you read your own son. Of COURSE he's isn't! Tell us what happened, dahling." Ruki's mother leaned back into her chair and took a sip of her tea.
Uruha bit his lip. Ruki's eyes widened.
"It's that Midori-bitch, isn't it?" Ruki asked.
Uruha bowed his head, afraid that he might start crying again.
"OOOOOOOHHH. That bitchy bitch's such a BITCH!" He stood up, ramming his fist into his other hand.
"Whose Midori?" Uruha's mother asked.
"Why is she a bitch?" Ruki's mother looked at Uruha to Ruki, then at Uruha again. "Answer!" She boomed when Uruha didn't say anything.
"WELL. Midori's Uruha's bitch of an obsteatrician and she is SO BITCHY, like, not like, Kyo-bitchy when he didn't take a nap, but like, BITCHY!"
There was silence, and Uruha's mother raised an eyebrow while Ruki's mother nodded.
"ANYWAYS. She is SO out to get Aoi, like, I'm not kidding, and she is so bitchy, did I mention that? Yeah. So yeah, she is out to get, like, Aoi in ANY WAY POSSIBLE, I'm thinking, and like, Midori has probably, like, done something EXTREMELY bad to Uruha." Ruki paused to take a breath and looked at Uruha. "Right, Uruha?"
Uruha nodded slightly, his head still bowed.
Uruha's mother looked at Ruki's mother. "Well, Aki?" She said.
Ruki's mother started to rub her palms together again. She started to chuckle menacingly, not unlike Ruki that time in the restaurant. Uruha's mother smiled.
"What?" asked Ruki?
Ruki's mother grinned deviously.
"We're going to make her pay."

The Future Not Promised Chpt. Twelve

2007-11-12T02:42:24Z

Chapter Twelve: Poisonous

Uruha admired a tiny white pair of socks and placed them into his wicker basket. He glanced around in the large crowded store for Ruki and Kai. They were in an extremely popular baby supplies store, bursting with designer baby clothes, special Australian-made diaper cream, Gackt-resembling baby toys and more of those sort of things.
One had to get reservations to actually get into the store, and even then it's hard to move around with the amount of people in it. Miyavi had to pull some strings to get them in. Uruha ran his eyes around the store in anticipation. The many items stocked, although beautifully made and definitely unique, "ain't that cheap, sweetie", as Ruki would put it.
Kai was pushing Itoshii and Miyabi around in a black, shiny twin stroller and Ruki was looking at japanese fashion lines, designed with styles taken straight from the streets.
"This." Ruki walked over to Uruha and showed him a black lolita dress with white accents.
Uruha examined it carefully. There were many layers of petticoats, delicate white mother-of-pearl buttons down the whole front of the dress. There was shiny black ribbon and lace on nearly every inch of that dress. A classic lolita-girl with corkscrew curls and a parasol grabbed at the tall man in sunglasses beside her, pointed at the dress Ruki was still clutching and squealed loudly.
"Aikurushii desuuuuuuu!!!!" Lolita-girl's voice was extremely high. The tall man nodded.
"Erm.." Uruha pursed his lips dubiously.
"Oh, like, c'mon! It'll be fuuunnn." Ruki stretched that last word out.
"What if my baby is a boy?" Uruha looked at the little costume skeptically.
"EVEN BETTER! We can name him, like, Mana or something!!" Ruki gave a little excited jump and placed the elaborate dress into the basket Uruha was holding. "These too." Uruha watched as Ruki put shiny black patent leather mary-janes in also, along with frilly matching lace stockings.
Kai pushed the stroller up to them. "This is like that costume store all over again." He said smilingly when he saw what Ruki had found.
"You gotta admit. It's hot." Ruki ran a black nail-polished hand through his burgandy locks. Uruha knew that Ruki was still worried about Reita underneath it all.
"Yes, yes." Uruha said, giving in. He started to look at a rack of adorable little jumpers that came in assorted pastel colours. He decided to buy one in yellow. After all, yellow was unisex.
"Did you, like, buy anything, Kai?" Ruki inquired.
"Oh, just some little costumes I know Miyavi would love seeing his kids in, and an occasional practical thing now and then." Kai nodded.
Ruki counted out Kai's things while Kai pulled out his cellphone, checking it and texting someone back.
" 'Kay. Uruha. You done?"
"Huh?" Uruha looked up from the jumpers.
"Are you ready to go?" Kai asked.
"Oh..Sure.." Uruha randomly threw some more stuff into his basket. He might as well buy as much as possible; he probably won't have a chance to be here again.
They swiped their Visas and they stepped out of the overflowing store.
The trio walked down the street, occasionally stopping to look in an interesting store of some kind. They passed by a small strange store. Kai and Uruha kept walking, but Ruki stopped right in front of it. Uruha and Kai stopped too, to look back at Ruki.
"Let's go in." Ruki said impulsively.
"Ruki! I can't bring the babies into THAT!" Kai looked shocked.
"What won't kill them will, like, only make them stronger!!"
"Uruha, what do you think?"
"Err...I guess a few minutes wouldn't harm us or the babies.." Uruha said, wanting to agree to both sides.
Kai sighed. "Fine."
Ruki opened the door gingerly and they all stepped in. Uruha looked around. The insides of the store resembled a library, lots of dark wooden shelves everywhere, filled with large dusty glass jars filled with odd things pickled in brine.
"HELLLOooooooooooooooooooooo!!" A crazy man/lady/person in a dark eggplant turban and a multicoloured, flowy robe popped up from behind a shelf.
"Hi." Kai said. The babies opened and closed their fists at the person in greetings.
"Anything I can HELP you wiiiiithhhhhhh?" The person asked.
"Umm. We're just browsing. Thanks." Ruki smiled at the person and went along in his merry way.
"I'll just stay here." Kai leaned against the wall with the stroller beside him, checking his cellphone worriedly. Uruha noticed he had been doing that a lot.
Uruha then looked around, suddenly seeing a jar full of pickled root vegetables. They looked good. Did they have lunch yet? He wanted the jar of vegetables. Regardless of the price.
Unaware of what he was saying, Uruha pointed at the jar. "I want that."
Kai whirled around. "Uruha, are you feeling alright?"
Uruha nodded, his finger still pointing at the jar. He never felt so attached to something...if he didn't get it NOW, someone was going to get hurt. Really bad.
"Certainlyyyyyy!" The person brought out a plastic tub and filled it with the strange pickles. "Here youuuuuuuuu areee!"
"Thank you." Uruha smiled at the person, who grinned toothily back.

They went home, and Reita glanced up from the kitchen table hopefully when they did, as if hoping Ruki could give recognition that he existed. However, Ruki had already fled to his bedroom. Reita went back to his sad position, his elbows on the table and his forehead in his hands. Even though the day started out sunny, it began to rain. Kai went upstairs to put Itoshii and Miyabi into their cradles, with a worry mark between his eyebrows. Uruha sighed.

The thing about Ruki was the fact that his eyes never stayed red after he cried. As they sat in the living room the next day, only the tear trails on his face showed the fact that he had been crying. The tv was on, and both Uruha and Ruki were sitting on the black leather couch, where Uruha knew Reita was sleeping last night.
Kai walked in carrying Miyabi and Itoshii, one in each arm.
"Guys. I have really important news." Kai sat down next to them, placing Itoshii in Ruki's arms. "Miyavi wants to move into somewhere else, to raise the twins."
"NO. Sweetie. You can't." Ruki looked stricken. Uruha suddenly realized why Kai was checking his cellphone so often.
"I hope its somewhere near.." Kai looked into Uruha's eyes and Uruha saw worry in them.
"We were talking about it before, and now Miyavi's found a really nice apartment. It's like a fifteen minute drive though! And we're going to see it today."
"I can't believe it. Like, everyone I love is being taken away from me. Someone must hate me in this world."
"Ruki...we just need some space of our own. I'm sorry!" Kai looked upset now.
Miyabi and Itoshii seemed to sense the despair in their parent's voice, and started to cry.
"Ohh!" Kai picked both Itoshii and Miyabi up, stood up and carried them out. Kai looked even more upset now.
"God. It's not fair."
"It's only fifteen minutes, Ruki." Uruha said.
"But--" Ruki started.
"I know. It wouldn't be the same as him living with us. I know." Uruha patted Ruki's arm.
"I'll bet you'll be taken away next too." Ruki muttered angrily. "How come this, like, only happens to me?" His voice cracked.
"My life. Is l-like a fairytale. They end the story w-when the life is all nice and good, but, but they all probably don't have happy endings in the e-e-end..."
Ruki leaned into Uruha (as well as he could with the baby bump in the way) and started to cry on Uruha's shoulder.
Just then, Reita walked in and saw Ruki crying. Reita hesitated, then grabbed Ruki off Uruha and held him close.
"Get o-off mee." Ruki pounded his fist onto Reita's chest, as that was the highest part Ruki could reach. "I-I-I said, g-g-get..off, off, me." Ruki said between deep sobs and struggling.
"No." Reita hugged Ruki to his body even tighter, so now Ruki was sobbing into his shirt and couldn't hit his fist against Reita.
Ruki gave up and just cried.

~

Even though they were in a car, Uruha leaned onto Aoi, thoroughly exhausted. They've been packing all day, and moving them into Kai and Miyavi's new apartment. A week has past and Uruha's baby has definitely been growing. Miyavi and Kai has fallen in love with the new apartment and was now out of the house. Uruha and Aoi moved into their bedroom and started to renovate their old one into a room for their unborn child. It has been an exhausting week.
Aoi turned his head to look at Uruha, who had his eyes closed. Aoi ruffled Uruha's hair.
"Twelve more weeks."
"I know." Uruha opened his eyes and looked at the passing scene outside the window. It was late autumn now, around november. The twins were born near the end of the summer, when it was still boiling hot, so that means if Uruha's baby was exactly on time, it should be born in the next year.
Uruha's phone rang. He glanced at it. Ruki. Putting it onto speakerphone so Aoi could hear, Uruha answered it.
"Hey hey hey."
"Hey Ruki. Is Reita there?" Uruha answered.
"Yes. Where are you guys?" Reita replied with a question. Ruki's phone must be on speakerphone too.
"Going to Midori's." Aoi answered.
Ruki made an annoyed grunt at Midori's name, but continued. "Alrighty. Just to let'cha guys know, me and Reita--"
"Reita and I." Reita cut in.
"Shuttup Reita, otherwise it will, like, just be Reita." Uruha visionized Ruki giving Reita a light slap on the shoulder, which would explain the soft clap Aoi and Uruha heard on the other line.
"Okay. ANYWAYS, BEFORE I WAS SO RUDELY INTERRUPTED! Me and Reita are going out tonight, so don't wait up."
"Sure. Have fun, you guys!" Uruha said.
"You too. Hugs. Love you both totally to death."
"Love you too. Bye!"
Uruha was really glad that Reita and Ruki stopped arguing. It had built a lot of tension in the house, which Midori said to avoid.
Midori.
They were going to see her right now.
Aoi made a left turn and continued driving. Uruha thought about Midori. Aoi couldn't love her, could he? After all, Midori didn't seem to be his type. He likes the sweet and...Wait. What type DID he like? Uruha looked up at Aoi in sudden shock. Aoi didn't notice.
Was Uruha Aoi's type? Uruha hoped so. Wait. What if MIDORI was Aoi's type? He didn't want Midori in this picture at all. Uruha then suddenly had a vision of Aoi leaving Uruha for Midori, occasionally meeting Uruha to let him see the child. Knowing Aoi...he would want to keep the child...then Uruha would be all alone in the world...
"We're here." Aoi's voice broke Uruha's train of thought as he pulled up into the all too familiar Shizukesa building. "You alright?"
"Yeah." Uruha smiled bravely up into Aoi's face. He trusted this man. So trust he shall. Aoi helped Uruha out of the car, and into the building, where they passed by the front receptionist's desk and the fountain.
They walked down the marble-tiled hallway and into Midori's office. Midori was waiting there, in her usual outfit of not-very-doctorly clothes. Today she was wearing a white strapless dress and black leggings with her hair loose. She was sitting on her spinny chair, all business-like, and beamed at Aoi when they walked in.
Hmph. Uruha was displeased.
Just when Uruha sat down, Aoi excused himself; his phone was ringing.
"So." Midori simpered and crossed her leg across the other one and put her folded hands on her knee.
"So." Uruha looked at her straight in the face, trying to send her a mental message. Stay away from him..stay away...
"How are you?" Midori asked politely.
"As well as can be." Uruha answered in a dignified manner. Uruha's phone rang all of a sudden. "Excuse me." Uruha smiled widely and clicked the talk button. To Uruha's horror, the settings were still set on speakerphone.
"HEYYY! Uruha. Ruki here, I know you're, like, with that TOTAL bitch Midori, but I got news, news, NEWS! But first I have GOT to tell you, I agree with you on the whole hating Midori thing. I hope she doesn't deliver, like, your baby. What a bitchy bitch. Shit, dropped my keys!! ANYWAYS, what is UP?"
Uruha didn't say anything. He swallowed and flipped his phone shut. He could deal with Ruki later.
"So. Midori." He tried to break the awkward silence.
"Cut the crap, Uruha. I can't take this anymore." Uruha's eyeballs grew twice their normal size. Did Midori just utter a PROFANITY? Midori breathed heavily through her nostrils."God. Aoi did tell you, didn't he?" She said at last.
"Tell me what?" Uruha felt like he had been relaxing in a hot tub, but suddenly the water became icy cold and dangerous.
"Oh God. No. No." Midori rubbed her temples.
"What?"
Midori was quiet for a moment. "We're going out. He didn't tell you, did he?"
The icy cold water froze into solid ice.
"No. You're making this up." Uruha said shakingly. "Aoi loves me. He loves me, okay?"
Midori shook her head pityingly. "He's only staying with you because he feels guilty about the baby." She moved closer to Uruha, who scuttled back as if she were poisonous. Her voice certainly was, sickly sweet and poisonous.
"It's alright, Uruha. It's alright. He still regards you as very close to him. Just not as close anymore." Midori continued, her voice becoming softer and softer. Uruha felt the venom of it spread through his body. He flinched.
"Hi, I'm back. What's going on?" Aoi walked back in, looking from one face to the other.

TO BE CONTINUED! >:D

Chapter Eleven: The Bladder Baby

Uruha really really REALLY had to go. He glanced around the room. No one paid him any attention. Aoi looked up and smiled at him. Uruha grinned back anxiously. He really had to go.
Carefully, he stood up and quietly shuffled towards the hall. Aoi watched him, amused.
"Nearly there.." Uruha thought to himself as he nearly arrived to the washrooms.
"AHEM." A large nurse with her hair in a bun stepped in front of him.
"Urh...hi.." Uruha wiggled his fingers at her in a nervous attempt at a greeting. The nurse pointed her finger back to the waiting room and Uruha miserably walked back.
"Uruha." Aoi said when Uruha sat back down in the orange plastic chair. "You know you have to wait."
"I know." Uruha pouted and looked down at his fidgeting hands, unaware of how lovingly Aoi was watching him.
"Uruha?" Another nurse called from the ultrasound room.
Aoi stood and helped Uruha up. Uruha winced. Everything was so pain-achey.
The nurse held the door for them and closed it once they went in. Midori beamed cheerfully at them.
"Hello! How are you doing?" Midori asked brightly as Uruha lay down on the cot, eager to get this over with.
"HOW AM I DOING? I'LL TELL YOU HOW I'M DOING! I'M PREGNANT AND I HAVE TO GO PEE GODAMMIT!" Uruha thought in his mind.
"We're doing fine." Aoi responded calmly. Uruha nodded with his lips pressed together tightly.
"Sorry, I know you have to use the faucilities, however, we need a full bladder to perform the ultrasounds." Midori explained. Uruha gave a jerky nod.
The nurse gave Uruha a strange look and handed Midori a tube of gel, which she squeezed onto Uruha's abdomen.
Uruha closed his eyes, already used to this procedure, though he flinched slightly when the cool fluid was rubbed onto him. He was feeling quite sensitive these days.
Midori nodded and wrote some things down. Then she turned the screen towards Aoi and Uruha.
"Be careful, the baby is about twenty-eight weeks and can respond to outside noises. And it will probably start a sleeping schedule, so it will be normal for it to be awake when you are about to sleep. It might be uncomfortable, unfortunately."
Uruha and Aoi nodded.
"I'll just leave you two alone for now." She got up, stretched in a manner that showed off her long thin arms and left the room. She smiled at Aoi before she stepped out of the doorway.
"Bitch," Uruha thought. The baby seemed to agree, for it wiggled slightly.
"There it is." Aoi whispered. He looking at the black and white images, his whole face softening. Uruha sat up slightly and saw a blob moving. The blob was bigger than last time.
"Isn't it beautiful?" Uruha asked.
The baby heard Uruha, and it looked up. Or rather, seemed to. Uruha sighed. He still had to go pee.
"Wait, I have to take this," Aoi said when his phone started to vibrate. "I'll be right back." And he kissed Uruha on the cheek before he left the room. Uruha was alone in the room now.
"Hi there." Uruha felt like an idiot, but he waved at his baby.
Ruki popped his head in.
"WHAT THE? RUKI?" Uruha looked horrified that Ruki managed to break into the hospital.
Ruki looked around sneakily and said, "The coast is clear!" He then walked in, followed by Kai carrying Itoshii.
"Hi Uruha." Kai said. "Wave hi, Itoshii! Wave hi!" Itoshii seemed to be deaf to Kai's requests and looked around the room. Uruha laughed.
"Hi Kai. Hi Itoshii. Hi Ruki."
"Heyyy sweetie. How are you?" Ruki asked, sitting on the cot on which Uruha was lying on. "HEY! Is that, like, your BABY?? Lemme see!"
"How did you guys get in?" Uruha asked, still slightly shocked.
"That. Is totally not important." Ruki looked darkly at Kai, who nodded solemnly.
Uruha looked from face to face and decided to not press the matter any further. He might find some things out that he didn't need (or want) to know.
"Wow, Uruha! I can see your baby!" Kai said.
"I know, eh?" Ruki leaned in more forward. "Do you guys, like, know the gender?"
"No," Uruha admitted.
"Well." Ruki looked around with shifty eyes. "We could, like, find out now." He rubbed his hands together in an evil sort of way.
Kai and Uruha exchanged a skeptical look, then looked back at Ruki, who was now cackling in the same way that he did when they first laid eyes on Midori at a restaurant.
Itoshii, who had no idea what was going on, started clapping his hands and laughing insanely like Ruki.
"Yes yes! Let's like, find out now!" Ruki continued, moving the white probe around Uruha's abdomen. Although they were unsure of the plan, they were curious; Kai and Uruha leaned in along with Ruki to see the gender of the baby.
"Carefully...carefully.." Ruki adjusted it with his tongue in his cheek. "Oh.mygosh. There. That's the gender."
They all stared at it.
"Where's the baby's head?" asked Kai.
"How should I know?" Ruki shrugged. "I ain't no doctor, hun."
Uruha examined it carefully. "I don't see it." He finally said.
"UGH! It. Is. THERE!" Ruki jabbed his finger onto the screen. "SEE? It's floating around like some weirdo thing."
"OHHH! Uruha! It's a boy!"
"A boy?" Uruha's eyes filled with tears. "Oh good! I've been worrying about so many things... Like w-w-which washroom to take the baby in if it's a girl, I, I mean, what if, what if the baby gets traumatized when she sees so many men URINATING as a child but this way it will be s-s-so much b-better--"
"Oh stop it! You're gonna, like, start hyperventilating." Ruki waved a hand at Uruha who had shiny eyes and shaking hands. He seemed to have forgotten his bladder emergancy in his emotion.
"A boy. Our children can play together!" said Kai happily.
"MY GOD!" Midori was standing at the doorway, looking shocked. "What on earth? What are you doing?"
Ruki ran towards her and grabbed her by the shoulders. Midori's eyes expanded to the size of plates.
"A BOY! URUHA'S HAVING A TOTALLY AWESOMELY BEAUTIFUL BABY BOYYYY!!" He screamed. Then he let go of her and hugged Uruha, who hugged back tightly.
"A boy?" Midori walked towards the screen with crisp clicks of her heels, which Uruha noted were black distressed leather boots, and peered into it.
"Uruha. That's your bladder."

~

"So. Uruha. A boy, eh?" Miyavi asked, and he, Reita and Aoi started laughing hysterically.
Uruha was silent. When Aoi came back, Midori had told him everything that had happened. Aoi looked emotionless at first, but in the car he burst into such a fit of laughter that he got hiccups. Uruha was still slightly emotional, and did not care to be laughed at. Ruki and Kai had apologized over and over to Midori when she started to list of the damages that they could have done to the expensive equipment. Then they left. Aoi and Uruha drove home with Aoi still laughing and it was now dinnertime.
The twins laughed hysterically too, each one taking turns laughing when Kai was feeding the other one. "Hush." Kai said grumpily as he fed them their bottles.
Miyabi beamed at Kai and sucked on his fingers. Although rambunctious, Uruha had to admit that the babies were quite cute. Itoshii was dressed in a white babygro and Miyabi was dressed in a pale yellow one. Miyavi reached over and gently pressed on Miyabi's nose. Miyabi looked cross-eyed for a second then grabbed Miyavi's finger. Everyone laughed, including Uruha this time.
Kai gasped. "Smart boy!"
Miyabi, pleased with all the attention, waved his little fists around.
"Oh..I think I'd better take them to bed." Kai said, still holding Itoshii, who fell asleep. Miyavi picked up Miyabi and they walked up the stairs.
Aoi, Uruha, Reita and Ruki watched them and then resumed talking.
Uruha noticed that Reita looked extremely tired, and he kept rubbing his face with his eyes closed. Ruki seemed to notice too.
"Hey baby. Are you, like, okay?" Ruki looked at Reita worriedly.
Reita and Aoi exchanged a look.
"What?" Ruki saw that look. "What happened?"
Reita said nothing.
The tension in the air grew thicker.
"Nothing. Nothing's happening." Reita said in a quiet voice.
"No, Reita." Aoi sighed. " Just tell him now. Saves you the trouble if it should happen."
"What should happen?" Uruha asked, now scared.
No one answered him, but Aoi put his hand on Uruha's shoulder. Uruha knew that meant to not say anything until Reita did. Uruha's baby turned inside him like crazy, as if it sensed the tension too.
"Reita. Tell me now." Ruki used a voice Uruha only heard once (now twice) in his life. It was quiet yet cold and terrible, like if you didn't do what he said, he would do something horrifying to you.
"I'm being offered a high-paying contract." Reita said at last.
Ruki rolled his eyes in relief. "So take it," he began.
"I have to move to Hokkaido if I take it." Reita continued.
"WHAT?" Ruki yelled. Aoi scratched at his forehead calmly, as if expecting this to happen. Uruha wrung his hands anxiously, glancing from face to face in suspense.
"Are you going to sign it?" Ruki asked, his voice slightly shaking.
"Don't know." Reita rubbed his face again.
Ruki closed his eyes and stood up. Then he began to walk away. Reita grabbed Ruki's wrists. Ruki tried to shake him off, but Reita was stronger.
"Let GO OF ME." Ruki growled.
"No." Reita said firmly.
"Fuck, Reita. Just let me go." Ruki successfully released himself from Reita's grasp and ran to his room, where he slammed the door with a loud bang.

That night, Reita slept on the couch.

TO BE CONTINUED!! >:D

Chapter Ten: Itoshii Hito

"I. Have. Good. News." said Ruki, bursting into the kitchen and making a scene. Reita was sitting across from Uruha, who was reading. It was a bright sunday afternoon. It was also summer, and fairly hot outside.
"What is it now?" Reita asked, now used to Ruki's antics.
"WELL." Ruki said, twirling around the dining table where Uruha and Reita sat. "You know Miyavi's new single?"
"Itoshii Hito?" asked Uruha.
"Damn straight! It went, like, STRAIGHT to number one!! And WE, " he continued and his twirling stopped when he nudged Uruha slightly, "Witnessed the creation of THAT SONG."
"Really?" Reita asked, amused.
"YES, REALLY!" Ruki went on. "So I was giving Uruha over here an awesome manicure, right? Then we saw Miyavi playing his guitar to Kai in the moonlight. It was SO SO SO romantic." Ruki sighed and plopped down a chair.
"Where's Aoi?" Ruki said, after a few moments of silence.
"Out." Was Uruha's reply.
"WITH?"
Uruha didn't say anything. Ruki gave an exasperated sigh and smacked Reita on the back of his head.
"OW! What was that for?" Reita asked grumpily.
"To release anger. UGHH. I hate that Midori-bitch."
Reita gave a pout, which Ruki kissed.
"All better, sweetie-pie?"
Reita considered for a second. "One more." He stuck his perfect, model lips out again.
"Geez. So, like, greedy." But Ruki pressed his lips against Reita's again anyway. Uruha smiled as he watched the scene out of the corner of his eye. It was nice seeing true love.

Then, the back door open and closed. Miyavi and Kai walked into the kitchen.

"ARGH. I hate the paparazzi! HATE IT!" Kai swelled up in his anger and doubled in his size, which was already quite big. He had about two weeks left and the babies could come any minute. Miyavi rubbed Kai's shoulders when he collapsed onto a kitchen chair. The heat was obviously hot helping one bit.
"Kai, sweetie. Calm down, okay? Okay." Ruki looked concerned. Uruha nodded in agreement.
"NO! IT'S NOT OKAY! They chase me day and night. Now that they found out that I'm PREGNANT WITH MIYAVI'S BABIES, I HAVE NO PRIVACY!!" Kai breathed heavily through his nose.

"Well, get ready for more stalker-ish-ness, 'CAUSE MIYAVI'S SINGLE JUST WENT NUMBER ONE!" Ruki leapt up and started dancing around the house. The chains on his belt clicked madly. Kai sat in stunned silence and Miyavi's jaw dropped. Reita chuckled. Ruki and Uruha giggled at their reactions.

"Nice reactions you have," Reita said, commenting on the dumbfounded look on Miyavi's face and the shocked/about-to-faint expression on Kai's.

Kai grabbed onto the table for support. Everyone looked at him in worry, even Ruki, who paused in his dancing to walk towards Kai.
"My water just broke," Kai said weakly.

"OH.MYGOSH!" Everybody said, taking a leaf out of Ruki's book.

~

"OH.MYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Ruki jumped all around the waiting room. Uruha sat on one of the plastic orange chairs of the waiting room, anticipating the arrival of Kai's children. Miyavi was in the room with him. Uruha could feel the baby inside him wriggling, as if it, too were excited for Kai and Miyavi.
Reita walked in with Aoi, who cancelled his "meeting" with Midori for this.
Uruha's heart leapt. If he did THAT for Kai, then he would so ditch Midori when Uruha had the baby. Hopefully.
Maybe.
"Hey." Aoi said, walking towards Uruha. He pressed his lips to his forehead and turned to Ruki. "What's happening so far?"
"WELL." Ruki started, but he was cut off by Kai screaming. "OHMGOSH." Said Ruki, going pale.
"Is it that painful?" asked Uruha, suddenly aware of what childbirth really meant.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHHHAHAHHHH!!!" Kai's voice echoed through the halls, followed by some low voices murmuring.
"God. I feel for Kai." said Reita. Uruha saw (from the parts that weren't covered by his nose bandana) that his face was pale.
"What gender do you think the babies are?" Aoi asked.
"Honestly, it so totally has to be--" Ruki was cut off again by a loud wail.
Everyone's face lit up. One of the babies had been born.
"Oh! I can't wait to see them!" Uruha said.
There were more cries and more wails, sounding like three babies crying.
"TRIPLETS?" Ruki asked.
"Wow." Aoi said, rubbing his chin.
"Let's go in and see!" Uruha said.
As if she heard Uruha, a nurse stepped out and invited them all in.
"Please be quiet, though," she said, looking specifically at Ruki, who beamed at her.
"Certainly!" He replied.

Ruki and Uruha walked in first, and saw Kai with his eyes closed on the bed. The wails got louder and louder and they looked over at the chairs. Miyavi was sitting on a plastic orange chair, like the ones in the waiting room, carrying two babies. You could tell they were his because they were wailing and crying just like him.
"Boys...they're..boys..." Miyavi said between sobs.
The doctor and nurses left the room quietly. Ruki giggled.
"So MIYAVI is the triplet..." Reita said with a grin.
Kai's eyes fluttered open. "Whaa?" He whispered. Uruha and Ruki walked over to him.
"Hey, how are you?" Uruha asked softly.
"Ughh.. I feel like I just got stretched from here to Nagasaki.." Kai sat up in his bed. "Where are my babies? I want to see them!"
Aoi gently lifted the babies out of the hysterical Miyavi's arms and handed them to Kai. One of the twins immediately stopped crying once placed in Kai's arms. The other wailed less loudly.
Miyavi stood up and wiped away his tears. Reita turned his back to everyone and gave a small sniff.
"Awww! It's okay, Reita!! I'm here for you." Ruki walked over to hug him.
Uruha pulled the orange chair up to the bed and sat on it. Aoi stood behind him, a hand on his shoulder.
"Hi there." Miyavi leaned in towards the babies. The crying one stopped to stare at Miyavi.
The babies both had a small bit of black hair and Miyavi's face. In fact, they looked exactly like Miyavi, only the one staring at Miyavi had a small patch of green in his left eye.
"Meet Itoshii," said Kai, handing over the baby that stopped crying first to Uruha. "And Miyabi." And Kai handed Miyabi to Ruki.
Itoshi snuggled into Uruha's arms and closed his eyes. Uruha felt so emotional. This baby had a whole life ahead of him, and in a few weeks, he would be holding a baby of his own. Uruha felt the tears swell on his eyes. He turned to see how Ruki was doing.
"Ohh. You're so CUTE. Aren't you? Aren't you??" Ruki pressed his nose against Miyabi's. "Aren't-- OWOOWOWOOWOWOWWW!! LET GO! KAI! MAKE HIM LET GO OW!" He yelped when Miyabi grabbed onto one of his earrings. Miyabi giggled. Ruki nearly dropped Miyabi, but Miyavi saved his son just in time.
Miyabi giggled and clapped his hands. Everyone started to laugh, especially Reita, who had secretly taken out his camera and taken a picture of Miyabi causing Ruki pain.
Ruki clutched at his earlobe and gave everyone evil looks, causing them to laugh even harder. Even the twins laughed, even though they didn't know why.
Reita went around snapping more pictures. The babies squealed.
"I live for moments like these." Said Miyavi, squishing everyone into a hug. Reita took another picture.

~

Uruha awoke to a loud bang. He sat uo immediately.
"ARGHH!" Aoi yelled. Uruha tumbled off him, startled. Now that Uruha's baby was getting bigger, Aoi couldn't sleep on top of him anymore. Instead, Aoi would just pull Uruha on top of him in his sleep. Uruha had forgotten and sat on top of Aoi.
"Oh! Are you okay?" Uruha leaned in to examine Aoi.
"I'm fine. Is the baby okay?"
Uruha felt the bump to make sure. "Yes."
"Good." Aoi lifted some of Uruha's hair to expose the back of neck and kissed the delicate skin there. Uruha turned around to face Aoi. Now was the time to ask.
"Aoi..."
"Hmm?"
"Did you ever date Midori?"
There was a small pause.
"Yes."
"How did it turn out?"
"I broke up with her after six months."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"Okay." Uruha didn't want to press the matter any further, and besides, Aoi dumped HER. So he was over her.
The phone rang and Aoi reached over to answer it.
"Hello? Yes speaking. Oh hi, Midori."
Now...was she over him?

TO BE CONTINUED!! >=D
sorry again for the EXTREMELY late update.
happy thanksgiving to everyone!!
tell me what you think of the story so far!

Chapter Nine: Shinya's a man.

"Hey, baby. Are you there? Are you sleeping?" Uruha patted the bump that was the baby. He was now two weeks over twenty weeks and he could feel the baby sleeping and waking up occasionally. The ultrasounds show the baby putting it's thumb in its mouth, the baby's hair, the baby's fingers...

Uruha sighed in contentment as he felt the baby roll around inside him. He was sitting in his bed, all alone in the early morning. It had been raining. And Aoi was out. Probably working but maybe out with Midori.
Midori was now a growing problem. She was always out with Aoi, doing "business" or whatever she wants to call it. Uruha was suspicious and a bit anxious that Aoi really was going to leave him for Midori.

Kai popped his head into the room.
"Come in!" Uruha said, knowing that Kai lately had been tired and stressed. Kai collapsed onto the bed immediately. He was now gigantic.
"Six weeks..." He said weakly.
Uruha helped Kai sit up and they both leaned against the backboard of the bed.
"How are you?" Uruha asked.
"Tired." Kai rubbed his pale face. "I'm really more worried about Miyavi, though."
"How so?" Uruha questioned.
"The company is pushing him to release a new single. When he went to the studio a week ago, he was dissatisfied of what he recorded and cancelled it. Now the company is angry. I wish I could help him." Kai's lip trembled and a tear rolled down his left cheek.
Uruha stroked Kai's back, cursing the company in his mind.
"I know what will cheer you up. Let's go wake up Ruki."
"It's eight."
"I know." Uruha let out a gleeful giggle and Kai smiled as well.
They tiptoed gingerly towards Reita's room, where Ruki was usually sleeping these days, and knocked on the door.
Uruha heard a soft groan and looked at Kai, who stared back at him. They waited for a minute or so.
Reita, wearing only a towel around his waist, opened the door.
"Yes?" He said politely but sleepily.
"Reeeiiitaaa....Whooo is iiiiiit?" Uruha could hear Ruki saying sleepily from the bed.
Reita rubbed his face and opened the door more so Uruha and Kai could come in. They watched Reita walk into Ruki's washroom and climbed onto the bed when he was out of sight.
Ruki sat up, with his hair all messy and his lower half covered by the blankets on the bed. When he saw it was them, he fell back onto the bed and gave a large, dramatic moan.
Uruha realized that Ruki was naked.
"Mmmm. Go awayyy..." Ruki mumbled, burying his face into the pillow.
"What were you guys DOING last night?" Uruha asked.
Ruki lifted his head up from the pillow slightly and looked at Uruha in the eyes.
"Are you sure you want to know, sweetie?"
Uruha considered for a minute. "Urrrghh. Tell us, but in nice terms."
Kai giggled, forgetting his condition in his excitement and growing more like his old self again. Happy and carefree.
"Reita banged me."
"Nice choice of vocabulary." Uruha said for the second time to Ruki.
"OH! And I was thinking. Because Reita's bedroom doesn't have a washroom, which so totally sucks, we'll move into my room and we'll, like, change this one into the most AWESOMEST nursery ever!"
"That would be so wonderful!" Kai smiled a happy smile. He then checked his watch and frowned. "Sorry guys, I have go to a prenatal class now. They're fun! You guys should come. Free cookies." He got up and left, but stopped at the doorway to wave bye to them.
"SOOOO.. How ARE you?" Ruki asked, sitting up again.
"Worried. I'm scared about Midori. I think she's trying to steal Aoi." He picked at the sheet's threads.
"OOOOH! Let's go undercover again!" Ruki leapt up out of the bed in excitement, forgetting he was stark naked.
"OH GOSH! RUKI!" Uruha covered his eyes after catching a glimpse of Ruki's pale skin.
"Oh. Right. OH WELL!" Uruha heard Ruki run into his own room, where Reita was. He knew he was probably hugging Reita right now, not caring whether he was naked or not.
"Are you naked?" He could hear Reita ask.
"What does it look like, dumbass?" Ruki replied. Then he heard Ruki squeal loudly.
Uruha shook his head, amused. He stood up, and walked back to his own room, where he subccumbed to the softness of his bed.
Suddenly, Uruha bolted upright. He realized that he and Aoi had another appointment with Midori today. What was Midori going to do this time? Usually, she left Uruha out of conversations, talking about plans and events he didn't know about. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. She had no right to try to steal Aoi.
"Bring it on, Midori." Uruha said softly.

"I must warn you, you simply must keep your blood pressure low to prevent preeclampsia. If you should have sudden weight gain, vision changes or headaches, feel free to contact me." Midori made a note on her clipboard. Uruha nodded. Aoi patted Uruha's hand.
"Say, how about we all go out for drinks tonight, Aoi? The old Emachi-clan is meeting again." Midori turned to just Aoi once again, shutting Uruha out. Uruha felt a twinge of rage.
"Not tonight. I think I want to spend some time with Uruha." Aoi replied, folding his large hand over Uruha's. Uruha turned to face him. Aoi smiled a serene smile and patted Uruha's baby bump.
"Well. That's fine, too." Midori smiled, also. "Your baby is coming along beautifully, Uruha."
"Thank you." Uruha was now confused. Is she or is she not evil?

At home, Aoi talked about a case with one of his clients, one about copyright laws.
"The thing is, he really is the one in the wrong. So. How are you feeling?" Aoi sat on the couch of the living room.
"Pretty okay, I suppose." Uruha plopped down right next to him.
"Who would have thought we would end up like this?" Aoi turned on the television. A sitcom laugh track filled the room.
Uruha was silent. Did he resent getting him pregnant?
"I mean, it's just so wonderful. We're starting off a brand new life." Aoi continued.
"Do you remember how we first met?"
"I'd rather not." Aoi smiled a bitter smile.
"I do. Please don't blame my parents. They were only concerned about me." Uruha looked down, remembering how his parents disliked Aoi because of the large age difference. Strange. His own parents had a large age gap. That never stopped them.

When they first met, Uruha was seventeen and Aoi was twenty-four. Uruha's family was very well-off, and Aoi was being raised by a single parent. It also didn't help that Uruha's family considered Aoi to be quite trashy. However, no matter how hard Aoi tried to explain his intentions, Uruha's parents and grandparents merely ignored or critisized him. They tried everything to try and split them apart, from planning impromptu family gatherings on the days of their dates to locking Uruha in his bedroom.
Uruha finally walked out one day with Aoi, leaving his family maybe forever, with a note saying apologizing but stating the reasons why he did it.
"Do you think I should tell them I'm pregnant?"
"I don't know." Aoi said simply.
The door swung open and Ruki and Reita walked in.
"Oh my gosh!" Uruha said.
Ruki had dyed his hair a dark reddish-brown. (Think Decomposition Beauty..)
"I know. Gorgeous, ain't it?" Ruki did a shampoo commercial hair flip and paraded around the house.
"He did it during a photoshot." Reita's face was unfathomable. He walked over to the kitchen sink to pour himself a glass of water.
"Really?" Aoi said.
"YEAH! I was soo bored, so I walked around, and noticed they had this, like, little section where they did makeovers! And I was kinda tired of being a blonde bombshell even though I'm totally, like, awesome as a blonde and decided to go with a more sultry colour." Ruki walked up and hugged Reita from behind, purring into his ear.
"Oooh, should we be here?" Uruha asked.
"I dunno. Reita? Do you wanna have sex in the kitchen?" Ruki asked.
Aoi, Uruha and Ruki started laughing. Reita grinned and swung Ruki over his shoulder, who yelped loudly and smacked Reita's behind.
"Let me go, you barbarian!" Ruki's words were futile as Reita carried him upstairs.
"Hey." Aoi said, standing up.
"Mmm?"
"I have a meeting with a client I gotta go to. I'll see you later, okay?"
"Okay."
Aoi bent down to kiss Uruha fully on the lips. The lip ring was slightly cold and metallic on Uruha's lips, but he liked it. Aoi's hand rested on Uruha's thigh the whole time. The baby jumped suddenly and Uruha gasped in shock and looked down. Aoi looked at Uruha, a tad confused.
"The baby's saying hi." Uruha put Aoi's hand to his stomach. The baby kicked and was still.
"Hello, baby." Aoi said in a deep, soft voice. He stood in silence for a bit, his hand still on Uruha. Then, he got up, kissed Uruha on the cheek and left.
Uruha watched the TV some more and occasionally had a snack.
Ruki came down the stairs in a bathrobe and his hair in a towel.
"Hey, sweetie. What'cha watching?"
"I don't know. Something about people and cancer and cheating on each other."
"Oookay...weird. I'm going to a club with, like, Shinya and Jui. Wanna come?"
"Sure. Where is everyone though?"
"Kai and Myv is shopping for baby stuff. Reita is at another photoshoot and blah blah blah. Yeah. Soo, we're meeting them in half an hour, you person. Get ready, okay?"
"Okay. Help me get up!" Uruha stretched out his hands, ready for Ruki to pull him up.
"UGH. You lazy BUM!" Ruki tugged on Uruha's hands.

~

Loud music pounded inside the club while bright lights flashed everywhere. One of Miyavi's songs blared through the massive speakers and everyone was moving to the beat.
"Uruuuuuha! You have gotten biiiig!" Jui said. They were seated around a very small table made of metal mesh on swirly high stools of the same material. Jui was Ruki's cousin-in-law and Uruha's friend and Shinya was Ruki's other friend that Uruha met recently.
Uruha nodded happily. Even though he wasn't drinking any cocktails, he couldn't help being happy. The atmosphere seemed to have this happy bug affecting everyone.
Ruki took a sip of his acid-green drink. He blinked and the big pieces of glitter in his blue liquid eyeliner twinkled. "WOOOHOOO!" He yelled into Shinya's ears. Shinya had no reaction and was quiet.
Jui ordered his third drink, a pink martini this time, and rocked his hips to the upbeat music.
A man walked up to the table and turned to Shinya. He had face-length red hair and was wearing a black tank top with black baggy jeans.
"Hey baby. How's it going?" He said to Shinya. Uruha noted that his voice was very low.
Shinya didn't say anything. He stared ahead of him as if the man weren't there.
"The name's Die." Said the man. No reaction.
"If I were to rearrange the alphabet, I would put U and I together." Die grinned. Ruki and Jui snickered. They all watched on, very interested.
Shinya, again, didn't say anything.
"Is it hot in here or is it just you?" Die placed a hand on Shinya's shoulder.
"I'm a man." Shinya finally said at last in a low, deep voice.
Uruha watched as Die's face suddenly became a medley of horror and shock. Ruki and Jui started to laugh and Uruha joined in. Shinya was still staring straight ahead, with no reaction or emotion in his face whatsoever. Die started to walk away, slowly at first then quicker and quicker, with the shocked/horrified look on his face.
Uruha looked around the bar, happily watching the people dance. The smile slid off his face. He saw her.
Midori.
What was she DOING here?
"Ruki, let's go." He heard himself saying.
"WHAT? We only just got here!" Ruki whined.
"Is something wrong?" asked Jui. He looked to where Uruha's eyes were glued to. "Whose she?" He asked.
"WHO?" Ruki whirled around to see Midori, sitting across the room with a few distinguished, but young and beautiful looking people. Midori, as usual, looked glamorous, but subtly so in a red strapless satin tube top and a skintight, black, knee-length, a-line skirt skirt.
Ruki pursed his lips. "It's the bimbo, isn't it?" He asked. Uruha nodded. "Wow. She IS pretty. Geez. Hate her already."
"Who?" Jui asked.
"Uruha's bitch of an obsteatrician. I think she's conspiring to so totally steal Aoi from Uruha."
"Then don't go to her! Switch." Jui suggested to Uruha. Shinya nodded silently.
"She went to university with Aoi. They're apparently really good friends, so I'd rather not..." Uruha said.
"Whatever. I'm gonna go introduce myself." Ruki stood up. "And YOU," he said, pulling Uruha up, "are coming with."
"Oooh, I'm so gonna record this," Jui said, whipping out his flashy purple cellphone. Uruha looked at it and saw that it was encrusted with white and lavender rhinestones.
"Nice phone," Uruha said.
"I know, eh? I got it custom-designed."
"Don't care, peoples! C'mon!" He dragged Uruha to the table where Midori was sitting.
"Oh, hello, Uruha!" She said when she saw him. The distinguished, beautiful people simply ignored them, except for a tall, thin man with a goatee and black sunglasses, who blew a kiss and wiggled his eyebrows at Ruki. Ruki gave him the finger. Midori stood up and walked towards Uruha and Ruki.
"Hi." Uruha said.
"HEYY! I'm Uruha's friend, Ruki. Sooo nice to meet you at last. I heard sooo much about you!" He winked at Uruha, who tried desperately not to burst into a fit of giggles.
Midori raised a defined eyebrow but smiled anyway.
"Let's sit down somewhere, shall we?" She motioned towards a long hot pink couch that wasn't taken.
"Sure thang!" Ruki cried out.
"Fine with me." Uruha said.
When they all sat down, Ruki and Midori started to chat.
"SO. You're an obsteatrician?"
"Yes, I am. Planning on having any babies soon?"
"Not really. I'm not really, like, a baby person. Well. Not yet. Anyways, you went to, like, University with Aoi?"
"Yes, we did. In fact, we dated for a while. I'm sure he told you?" Midori directed the question at Uruha, who smiled back.
"Why of course, " Uruha lied.
Ruki, sensing Uruha's insecurity, burst in again, saying, "So I take it you're around Aoi's age?"
"Yes." Midori said.
"Oh my god! You're nearly thirty? You look, like, so much older!" Ruki said.
Midori's eyes grew bigger and bigger. Her mouth became a thin little red-lipsticked line.
"I MEAN! Mature! So much more MATURE!"
"I'd better go." She said stiffly, getting up and walked back to her table.
"RUKI!" Uruha smacked Ruki lightly on the shoulder, bursting into laughter.
"Knew it would make you laugh." Ruki leaned back with a smile of satisfaction on his face.
They saw Jui wave his arms at them. "Let's go back, " Uruha said.

It was ten-thirty when they got home. Ruki and Uruha sat outside on the balconey of the second floor and talked while Ruki gave Uruha a manicure.
"How is it, being pregnant?"
"It's weird. But kinda relaxing in a way. I feel like I want everything for this baby."
Ruki smiled. "But you're still so young, sweetie!"
"Ruki. You are three years older than me. That's it! Stop being silly."
Ruki yelped when Uruha threw a cushion at him.
"WHATEVER, OKAY?" Ruki said.
Then, they heard a guitar strum.
" Itoshii hito...nakanaide, warattemisete namida ga mitakute "suki" tte itta n ja nai n da yo, " sang Miyavi from the front lawn. Uruha and Ruki peeped over the balconey walls to see Miyavi and Kai sitting on a bench under the apple tree Kai had planted on the first day of the group moving into this house. They were sitting side by side, with Kai's head resting on Miyavi's chest and Miyavi's arms around Kai.
"He's singing to him!" Uruha whispered.
"That is, like, so sweet." Ruki sighed. The two stayed silent as they watched the pair below them.
Occasionally, Miyavi would kiss Kai on the forehead.
"Itoshii--" Miyavi was interrupted suddenly.
"Oooh! One of them just kicked."
Miyavi continued to play the guitar, but now his eyes were on Kai's abdomen. A few minutes passed. The guitar strummed on quietly.
"I think they're asleep now," Uruha heard Kai say.
"That's good." Miyavi murmured.
It was now dark outside, with the moon shining brightly on the couple, as they unconsciously added another romantic scene into the world.

The Future Not Promised Chpt. Eight

2007-09-18T23:17:36Z

Chapter Eight: Green.

"So...what did you do today?" asked Uruha conversationally.
"Nothing much, really. Saw a doctor." Aoi said, taking his shirt off. They were both in their rooms, Aoi in the bathroom and Uruha in the bedroom. It was nighttime.
Uruha sat up on the bed in silence, slightly shocked. Aoi had lied to him. He watched Aoi change into a pair of pyjama bottoms and start brushing his teeth. His hands subconsciously went to his abdomen, where the baby wriggled occasionally inside.
Aoi looked at Uruha, with the toothbrush still in his mouth. "MM?" He said.
Uruha ignored him and pulled the covers over his head. He heard the taps go on, then off and the click of the bathroom light switch.
"Uruha?" Aoi asked. Uruha stayed still. "Uruha?" Aoi asked again, touching the lump in the blanket that was Uruha.
Uruha yanked the covers off suddenly and asked Aoi in a shaky voice, "You aren't lying, are you?"
Aoi looked at Uruha for a moment quietly. In the lamplight, Uruha could see Aoi's dark circles under his eyes. His heart softened in spite of his suspicions.
"Come here." Aoi said, pulling Uruha into his arms so that Uruha's head was pressed against his chest. "Why would you think such a thing?"
Uruha chewed on his lip and looked from side to side. He was glad Aoi couldn't see his face. He thought about Kai and Ruki undercover in the ridiculous costumes and the three of them following Aoi around all day. "No reason." He said nervously. Then he let out a strange, high-pitched laugh.
Aoi once again stared at Uruha. Then he patted Uruha's back and laid him down onto the bed.
"Good night. Wake up early tomorrow. I want you to see something." Aoi rolled over onto his side of the bed and turned off the light.

~

The kitchen clock said it was seven-thirty. Uruha bit into his toast and chewed unhappily. He had a crink in his neck because Aoi had rolled on top of him in his sleep again and his neck was in an awkward position. He also hated waking up early. Reita, Miyavi, Aoi and Kai were also in the kitchen. Ruki, being the diva, always slept until one in the afternoon. Reita had to go to a photoshoot, Miyavi was going to downtown to record a single and Kai usually woke up this early. Aoi read the newspaper with a frown on his face. Reita drank his coffee and Miyavi pigging out on everything. Kai was cooking, or rather doing what he could with his enormous stomach. He now had about eight weeks left.
Uruha closed his eyes, pretending to have a long blink, but actually falling back asleep. He opened them reluctantly when he heard a thump next to him. Kai had sat down and was breathing rather heavily.
"What's wrong?" Uruha asked. Miyavi looked up in concern.
"Oh nothing," Kai answered lightly. "Just kinda tired, is all. The babies are also kicking really hard!"
"Here, let me," Miyavi said, collecting the empty plates before Kai could stand up again.
"Thank you." Kai said with a tired smile.
"Uruha? Are you ready? We're going now." Reita said, jingling his car keys. Aoi stood at the doorway with him. Uruha looked at Kai.
"Go! I'll be fine." Kai said.
"It's not that! I don't want to go wherever Aoi is taking me!" Uruha whispered urgently.
"Gooo!" Kai pushed him out of the kitchen and shook his head.

In the car, Uruha sat at the back tensely while Aoi was in the passenger seat and Reita drove.
"Aoi? Where are you taking me?" Uruha asked anxiously.
"You'll see." Was the vague answer.
"Wait. I gotta stop." Reita turned into a nearby gas station and quickly stepped out of the car. Uruha saw him speed-walk until he was out of sight.
"Did I do something wrong?" Uruha asked anxiously again.
"No, no. He just doesn't want to smoke in front of you."
"Oh." They sat in silence again until Reita came back and drove them to a tall elegant building with mirrored windows. The sign in front said "The Shizukesa Building."
"See you guys." Reita drove away after Aoi helped Uruha out of the car.
"Wow." Uruha whispered. The Shizukesa building had a fountain in the front reception and white marble tiling with long, stiff, rectangular white wool couches with their backs against the wall. Uruha noticed two pregnant woman sat on the couches as well as a pregnant man about two years older than him crying. Another older man patted his back, saying "Of course we can feed the child yak milk! I just didn't realize you weren't joking!"

The young woman in the front desk was wearing a cream skirt suit to match the setting and looked intelligent and beautiful. Beside the desk was a large doorless entrance to a hallway.
"Good morning. How may I be of assistance?" The young woman said.
"We are here to see Dr. Hana, please." Aoi said in a professional voice.
"Right this way, sirs." The girl didn't seem to be shocked to find Uruha pregnant.
As she led them down the hall, Uruha could hear many things behind the many closed dark wood doors.
"NO! THEY'RE NOT YOUR BABIES! WHY ARE YOU HERE?"
"Push!"
"I won't, you bitch!"
"GET OUT OF HERE!"
"Oh my god oh my god oh my god. It's a girl."
"Are you SURE the baby has two hands? I wanna see the sonograph! Gimme that!"
"Here you are." She pointed at a door with a gold name plate that read "Dr. M. Hana."
"Thank you." Aoi said and Uruha nodded.
Aoi opened the door and Uruha gasped.

It was her.
She was dressed in a pale sage green sleeveless top with black skinny jeans. Her long brown hair was in a long high ponytail and pearls gleamed at her ears. Uruha sat down in a nearby armchair, slightly shellshocked.
"Hello, Uruha. It's so nice to finally meet you." She said in a smooth, flowing voice. She held out her hand, which Uruha shook. "My name is Doctor Midori Hana, but you can call me Midori."
"She was one of my good friends at Emachi U." Aoi explained.
"Oh." Uruha was satisfied. They were just friends. Nothing more. Hopefully.
"Aoi said that you wished to switch obsteatricians, and I bumped into him once when I was in the building where he worked. We chatted and he decided to introduce me to you. " Midori said to Uruha. "I would like to get to know you, and maybe after this meeting I can take care of your matters relating to pregnancy."
"I went around with her yesterday and she recommended some products and explained the structure of strollers and such." Aoi added.
Uruha took a look around the room. It was absolutely gorgeous, with beige carpeting and coffee brown walls. There were certificates and diplomas hung up against one wall in gold frames. Everything was so classy and refined!
"Sure, I would love to be your client!" Uruha said excitedly.
"Wonderful. Now Aoi, why don't we all go out for dinner tonight, so you can catch up with the old Ema-clan?" Midori turned to Aoi.
"Uruha, is that alright with you?"
"Sure!"
"Terrific. You can meet my boyfriend!"
She had a boyfriend. Uruha leaned back into his brown leather armchair and sighed in contentment.
She had a boyfriend. Therefore she was taken. Therefore, she would not be of the taking.
Everything was working out very well.

~

"Cow." Kai said.
"Bitch." Ruki put in. "She is soooo out to get Aoi. Watch your back, girlfriend, 'cause she is sooooooooo on the move."
"You will be careful, right?" Kai said worriedly.
"GUYS! She's just one of Aoi's old friends! Nothing to worry about! I think."
"WELL. I hear this happens ALL the time...you suspect nothing's wrong while, like, she's brainwashing him."
Uruha patted Ruki's head and Ruki rolled his eyes and stick out his lips.
"She has a BOYFRIEND, though!" Uruha said, trying to assure himself as well as the others.
"She still doesn't convince me," Kai said. "I don't know why, but she seems to have this suspicious demeanor...OH!"
"Is something wrong?" Uruha asked, wanting to change the subject.
"The babies kicked really hard again...I hope they won't be premature...Miyavi's been really busy lately...Guys! I don't think I'm ready to give birth."
"Of course you are, sweetie. People usually have, like, some weird feelings near the end. I think."
Kai's left eye twitched slightly.
"They have to come out somehow..." He said.
"Of course."
"Uruha, are you ready to go?" Aoi was standing at the doorway in his ink black leather jacket and new sunglasses.
"OH! I forgot!" Uruha suddenly remembered the dinner plans they had tonight. He then looked at the expression on Kai's face. "Aoi? Is it okay if I stay home tonight?"
Aoi's mouth was in a small disappointed frown. "Sure. I'll just call and tell Midori that we're staying home," He went towards the phone. Uruha could sense his deep disappointment.
"Aoi, it's okay. You can go. Only I need to stay."
"That's not right, though!"
"It's fine! Just go! Have a fun time!" Uruha got up and pushed Aoi out the door. When he went back to the living room, where Ruki and Kai were looking at him with a raised eyebrow each.
"What?"
"What do you MEAN, like what? You're just gonna let Aoi go meet that bimbo without YOU there?" Ruki cried out dramatically.
"I trust him."
"So do I. It's her I don't trust. Or as Ruki called her, the 'bimbo'." Kai did little finger quotation marks when he said the word bimbo.
"Guys. Let's just have a fun time at home, okay?"
"SURE! I have the most awesomest idea! We can watch my favourite movie and paint each other's toenails! OHOHOH AND I CAN MAKE A CAKE!"
"Well. Let's leave the cake to us. You can't bake if your life depended on it." Kai giggled.
"WHATEV. Let's just start."

Uruha coughed and sputtered. Ruki had snuck away during the movie and baked a cake, even though Kai and Uruha said not to. Now the kitchen was filled with a light layer of gray smoke.
Ruki pouted. "I just wanted to make a cake!"
Kai waved his hand in front of his face to clear off some smoke. Then he started laughing when he saw the blackened flaky blob that was the cake.
"Then try using the right ingredients next time! Celery does NOT go into the cake, Ruki!"
"I thought it was, like, mint!"
Uruha started laughing too.
"MINT? HAHAHAHAHAHAH!"
"AHAHAHAHAH!"
"Oh. Oh. I see. Laugh at the one you're jealous at. HMPH! ONE CAN, LIKE, PLAY AT THAT GAME TOO! ONLY I CAN'T LAUGH! I'M SO TOTALLY NOT JEALOUS!" Ruki spazzed at them.
They continued laughing at him anyway.
"Whoa. What's going on?" Aoi was home.
"You're home!" Uruha ran into his open arms.
"You can go. I'll deal with Celery-mint over here," said Kai.
As they walked up the stairs, Uruha explained everything to Aoi.
"..and he thought it was MINT! SERIOUSLY!"
Aoi nodded.
"Oh, I'm sorry! How was your night out?"
"It was pretty good. I met all the old gang from Ema-U. It was really interesting. Hiroki, one of my old friends became a model. And he knows Reita, too. But only by reputation."
They went into their bedroom and talked some more as they got ready for bed.
"So! How is Midori?" asked Uruha politely as he climbed into their bed.
"Pretty okay, considering she just broke up with her boyfriend." Aoi tucked himself in and didn't seem to realize the frozen expression on Uruha's face.
"Good night." Aoi said, turning off the light.
Uruha lay in the darkness. Everything was still. Even the baby.
"Good night." Uruha whispered in reply, but Aoi was already asleep.
Uruha hoped that the clenching feeling in the stomach was just the baby.

TO BE CONTINUED. >=D
sorry about the LATE LATE update!
enjoy!

Chapter Seven: Undercover

~Several Weeks Later~

Uruha watched as Kai sighed sadly and stuck out his now gigantic stomach out more so the size was exaggerated. The waiters walked hurriedly around them, avoiding their glances. Ruki coughed loudly and immediately they were seated in a nice booth inside the packed restaraunt.
"Nice benefits to having pregnant friends!" Ruki said, looking around the restaraunt. Kai smiled and patted the rather large bump.
"Have you thought of names?" Uruha said, after the waiter left with their orders.
"Miyavi wants to name one of them after one of us. But he has some really weird ideas too, like Girlsbee Ambitious... After one of his songs..."
Ruki burst into laughter and Uruha smiled.
"HEY! I have an AWESOME idea. You can name one of them REITUKI! After me and Reita! Or you can just name one of them RUKI! I can see it now! RUKI!" Ruki did a dramatic movement with his hands across his face and his fingers twinkling.
"No. Just, no." Uruha said.
"Well, like, what about YOU, sir?"
"Hmm. We don't want to find out the gender yet, so we don't know. I'm pretty sure Aoi's excited about it though, I think."
"Hopefully. I hear, like, men, who can't, like, cope with commitment have AFFAIRS to relieve stress!"
"Wouldn't that just make more stress?" Kai asked.
"I'm telling the story, not you."
"Aoi wouldn't do that...would he?" Uruha asked worriedly.
"Of course not! In fact, there he is!" Ruki raised his hand to say hi, then immediately dropped it.
"Where?" Uruha whirled around to look then looked back at Ruki. Kai craned his neck to catch a glimpse.
"Is that a WOMAN with him?" Ruki whispered loudly, grabbing Uruha's sleeve.
Uruha looked back again, and there he was, sitting with a tall, slim girl of about twenty-five. Her hair was long, brown and shiny. She was wearing a white frilly top with a denim skirt.
"She looks older than me."
"That's a GOOD thing, sweetie!"
"But what if he likes more mature women?"
"Then he wouldn't have got you pregnant." Kai said.
"What if he didn't want me to get pregnant? What if he really IS having an affair? What if he's going to, to, to leave me and I'll be a single parent and I don't have a JOB! I'll need to start working! And I've only just turned twenty!" Uruha wailed.
Kai patted his shoulder and Ruki sighed through his nostrils.
"Well you know what we have to do," Ruki muttered strangely.
"What?" Kai asked.
"WE?" Uruha's hands flew to Kai's middle.
"Yes, we!" Kai said stubbornly. "We're in this together!"
"But you're PREGNANT!" Uruha said unhappily.
"So are you," reminded Ruki.
Uruha glared at Ruki, who cleared his throat and told them the plan.
"We're going to be undercover detectives. And we're gonna follow Aoi." Ruki cackled maniacally and rubbed his hands together. Some people turned around and a few waiters stopped to stare at Ruki who was still laughing and rubbing his hands.
"Sorry!" Kai said cheerfully. "Kyo over here forgot to take his medication!"
Uruha saw several heads nod and everyone turned back to their food. Uruha sighed in relief. Aoi hadn't noticed a thing. In fact, he was deep in conversation with the girl and he kept nodding and smiling. The sun had illuminated the girl's fine features and it seemed to give her an angelic look while the same pool of light shone softly on Aoi, making him look heavenly. They looked happy. They looked like they were enjoying themselves. They looked like a couple.
"Uruha?" Kai's voice brought Uruha back to the table. "You're tearing your napkin apart."
"Oh." Uruha looked down. There were white bits all over his lap and the small bump of his tummy. He brushed it off and felt the baby squirm inside. He was only halfway pregnant, but he felt like the baby was there forever.
"Whose Kyo?" He asked.
"Ruki's cousin." Kai nibbled on his chicken and frowned at it. Uruha looked up and the food had arrived.
"I'm not very hungry..." He said.
"But the baby is. Shuttup and eat, sweetie." Ruki said kindly. Uruha glanced at Ruki's face. His expression was understanding.
Uruha nodded and took a bite.

~

Later, Ruki decided to go shopping for their disguises, much to Uruha's protests.
"We need this.." Sunglasses went into the shopping cart. They looked ridiculous, with wild prints, neon colours and winged frames.
"Ruki, we're going to attract attention to ourselves."
"Hmm... Two pregnant men and, like a gorgeous person wouldn't exactly blend in, would they?"
Kai laughed as Uruha watched Ruki shove more items into the cart. Trenchcoats, wigs and hats all tumbled into the cart.
"What's this?" Kai picked up a long black hat.
"It's a fedora." Ruki went back to looking at fake fingernails.
"A what?" Uruha asked.
"A FEH-DOOR-AH! It's, like, a pimp hat."
"A WHAT?" Kai and Uruha said together.
"OOOH! Pimp CANES!" A man looking at witch hats with his daughter looked up, startled.
"No!" Kai said, dragging Ruki away from the long sticks.
"And no to the fingernails, either!" Uruha picked them up and placed them back onto the display.
"HMPH! I never said they were for the disguises!" Ruki said, grabbing them and dropping them back into the cart. They fell inside and the plastic boxes made clattering noises.
Ruki pushed the cart further into the aisle and looked at coloured contact lenses. "I think we should get blue for Uruha, black for Kai, and the rest for me." He grabbed some random cartons of lenses and dropped them in, too.
Kai picked up a feather boa and giggled. "OOH! That's so me!" Ruki grabbed it and threw it into the cart. Uruha looked around and saw some black cowboy boots that didn't look that bad. Ruki picked them up.
"I NEED THOSE! They will go SO AWESOMELY with my white sweater that I have at home!" They, too went into the cart.
The trio went into the next aisle. "This?" said Ruki hopefully, holding up a Dracula-style cape.
"You can wear that, but not in public." Uruha said. Ruki pouted and put it back.
"I'm gonna get this for Reita." Ruki put a pair of fuzzy cat ears into the cart and continued looking at things.
Kai turned around, wearing a fluffy white beard. "Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas!"
Uruha laughed and Kai put it in the cart.
"I want Miyavi to be Santa for the kids," he explained.
Uruha looked at some more wigs and Ruki put some clip-on piercings into the cart. Kai saw some nail polish he liked and placed them in, too. Some tall teenaged girls walked pass them.
Ruki completely spazzed out when he saw the makeup. "OH.MYGOSH! Did you know they sell EYELASHES HERE? AND GLITTER? AND FAKE TEETH TOO! HAA! HAA! HAA! I LOVE THIS PLACE!"
"It's a good thing there's not as much people here as in the restaraunt," Kai whispered to Uruha. Uruha nodded.
"I HEARD that!" Ruki said in a sing-song voice, after filling the cart with more small boxes. Ruki pushed the cart onwards again. Kai followed and Uruha started to take a step when he saw Aoi outside the window, walking with the girl.
"GUYS! There he is! Let's go! Now!"
"But I'm so not done shopping!" whined Ruki. "We're not going to be prepared!"
Uruha looked at the overflowing cart of miscellaneous things. "We'll live."

~

Uruha smoothed out the long beige trenchcoat. Carefully, he placed the matching fedora on. Geez, he looked like Sherlock Holmes, he thought to himself. The coat hid the bump perfectly. The baby inside was most likely sleeping, as it was still. Ruki had stuck some fake eyelashes on him and gave him some blue contact lenses
He glanced at his friends. Kai had a blonde wig on with the most normal looking sunglasses he could find (large, white frames with small red polka dots). He was also in a black, shorter trenchcoat and his large pregnancy showed.
Ruki's costume was the strangest of all. He was in a hot pink, long and spiky wig with a pair of leopard print sunglasses and a clip-on lip ring. Unlike the others, he was not wearing a trenchcoat; the outfit was composed of a pair of tight, black jeans with leather lacing up the left leg, silver platform boots that could blind someone with their shiny-mess and a tight white t-shirt with the words, "Please bore someone else" written on it in cherry red. He was also wearing a blue feather boa and holding some fake shopping bags.
"OKAY! We can't stick too close together, otherwise people might get, like, suspicious."
Uruha opened his mouth to say that they already look suspicious, but Ruki cut him off by saying, "OKAY! LET'S START!" And he burst out of the store's changerooms and out the door. Kai and Uruha followed and stepped out onto the streets, where they all saw Aoi and the girl enter a bookstore.
"We can't all go in, so I will." Kai whispered to them. Uruha and Ruki nodded. Ruki went into the next store and Uruha hovered around the windows.

A minute later, Aoi and the girl walked out and Kai walked towards Uruha. Ruki burst out dramatically once again and bumped into a passer-by. Uruha watched as Aoi and the unknown girl walked into a large clothing store before turning back onto the scene Ruki was making.
"OH.MYGOSH! I am SO SORRY! I'm going to be MEETing someone in the bookstore, but now I think it should be THE COFFEE STOP BESIDE IT. WHOOPS! I dropped my bags! I hope any that I leave behind WILL BE USEFUL TO ANYONE THAT PICKS IT UP!" Ruki practically screamed, putting emphasis on several words.

The man he bumped into looked a bit confused, as if he were wondering why someone would tell him all this. Ruki dropped his bags, left behind one and walked towards the coffee store.
Kai picked up one of the bags and walked into the coffee store and whispered to Uruha to sit next to Ruki inside.
Uruha stalled after Kai left, then too walked into the coffee shop. The many people on the streets gave no notice (they kind of dressed similarily to them).
The door closed with a soft tingling of the bell that hung above it. Ruki was sitting in a table in the corner. There were a lot of people inside the store. Uruha sat down in a chair across from Ruki.
"Wait for it..." Ruki said softly. Then a pregnant man with dark red hair and plaid pants sat next to Uruha.
"WELL? How was it?" Uruha whispered urgently.
"They were looking at pregnancy books! I think the girl might be pregnant!" Kai looked worried.
Ruki wrinkled his forehead. "Can't be.. Although Aoi is quite a catch. A lawyer..with a motorcycle.. Seems to me that we have to do more sneaking.."
Uruha bit his fingernails. Ruki said, "I'll go in next. I'll meet you guys here. So stay here and be good." He stood up and walked out.
"Are you worried?" Kai asked.
"Not really. Well, kind of. Yes." He admitted.
"Don't worry! I'll bet its nothing much. Just an old friend...or something.." Kai got up. "You want anything? I'm kinda hungry." Uruha shook his head.

When Kai finished his hot chocolate and muffin, Ruki walked back in again and sat down. This time, however, he has some bags with him.
"Sorry, guys. I SO had to buy some stuff. ANYWAYS. I saw them and using my awesome super-spy skills, I saw what they were buying. BABY STUFF, like blankets, and they were looking at strollers!"
Uruha fidgeted with his hands nervously.
"I think we should go home now," Kai suggested. Uruha nodded, unable to speak.

Chapter Six: Shock

"Well." Aoi said, when they were in the safety of their room. "That was certainly interesting." He dumped Uruha onto the bed. Uruha sat up and looked at Aoi.
"Interesting, my butt! That was scary!"
"Scary?"
"YEAH! I saw one of my best friends..having..having.."
"Sex?"
"Yeah!"
"Well don't WE have sex?"
"Yes...but that's different..."
"No, it isn't. Well,the only difference is that they're doing it behind our backs. And that Ruki's screaming his head off."
"It's so weird though.."
"Mmm. I'm gonna get the bath ready, okay?"
"'Kay."
Aoi got up and went into the bathroom and Uruha got up towards the closet and took their robes out. Ruki popped his head into the room.
"Hey." He said timidly. Uruha giggled. Ruki being timid was as natural as Aoi running through the streets naked. And probably as funny. Ruki blushed and furrowed his brows before plopping onto the bed. Uruha sat next to him.
"So. How are you?" Uruha said lightly, trying to act as if he did not just see him naked with Reita ten minutes ago. Ruki snorted, knowing what Uruha wanted to do.
"I was just doing it with your boyfriend's best friend, and how are you?" he replied.
"Oh, Ruki! How did this happen?"
"Well. When we went back to the house, I, like, went STRAIGHT to my room. And then I got this BRILLIANT idea to clean out my closet."
Uruha nodded. He knew Ruki cleaned out his closet when he was mad or upset.
"Then I heard someone knocking, so I had to go, like, answer it, right? So then I opened it and Reita was standing there, smoking. So I told him to go away, cause I SOOOO did NOT want to see him right now. Then he was all, is something wrong? And I said gee. I don't know! And then I told him to go away and tried to slam the door in his face, all mafia-movie style but he is bound on stalking me so he jammed his giant foot in the doorway so it wouldn't close!! Then he opened the door and started walking towards me REALLY creepily, like a creep."
Uruha smothered a giggle.
"Nice choice of vocabulary."
"Shuttup and lemme talk okay, sweetie?"
Uruha pouted.
"Okay. So it was so totally freaky and I was backing away from him and little did I know he was backing me into a corner. Then he picked me up when I was trapped and was SUCH a barbarian!"
Uruha snickered and Ruki glared at him.
"So, he took advantage of my shortness and carried me to his room. He locked me inside with and wouldn't let me out 'til I, like, explained why I was so mad."
"URUHA!" Aoi's voice came from the bathroom. "BATH READY!"
Ruki sighed dramatically and said, "Take your lovely bath. I'm going to bed." He got up and walked out the door.

Aoi scrubbed Uruha's hair until the top of his head was covered entirely in white suds.
"Are you okay? You seem kinda quiet." He asked Uruha. Uruha sighed through his nose and dunked his head into the water so all the suds came off.
"It's good that Ruki found someone to be with. I mean, for a long term relationship. He's been dating many people for a while and searching for the right person." He took a sponge from Aoi and scrubbed his back.
Aoi nodded in agreement. "Reita, too. It's nice seeing two people who need each other finally come together."
"But I'll miss Ruki."
"It's not like you're losing him! He'll always be there for you."
"Still..."
Aoi detected the uncertainty in Uruha's voice. "You still have me." He whispered, wrapping his strong arms around Uruha.
"And I'm very glad I have you."
"And I'll always be there for you."
"I know." Uruha hugged back Aoi and Aoi gave his forehead a little kiss.

The next morning, Aoi had left early for a case. Reita had a go-see downtown. Ruki and Uruha decided to go with Miyavi and Kai to see the baby's sonographs. It was their first time going and Miyavi and Kai's second time.
Ruki kept giggling when the sonographer rubbed a transparent gel over Kai's growing, but still slightly lat abdomen and placed a white probe onto it.
"Can I hold the white thingy?" He asked.
"That is called a transducer," the sonographer said patiently. "And you may want to watch first. As you are now in ten weeks of pregnancy, some changes will have happened. I suppose you would like to know the gender of your child?"
"No thanks, we want to leave that a surprise." Kai said happily.
"That's fine, too. It's also too early to see anyway." She replied, making a note on her clipboard
Miyavi was watching the screen, waiting for the baby's image to pop up any second. Uruha was next to Kai, looking on in anticipation. Suddenly, a small black and white blob appeared onto the small screen. Kai's mouth opened.
"That's my baby!" He cried out. "URUHA!" Kai grabbed Uruha's wrist. "THAT'S MY --"
He was suddenly cut off when Miyavi leapt up from the seat and pointed at the screen."They're TWINS! FREAKIN' TWINS!"
Ruki's eyeballs nearly popped out of their sockets. Kai started to cry. Uruha watched the whole scene in amazement.
The sonographer seemed to be a bit freaked out. A nurse popped her head in and motioned towards the sonographer. The sonographer nodded her head and said to Uruha ( who seemed to be the only calm one ), "Excuse me, I'll be right back." She passed the transducer to him and walked out of the room.
Miyavi was now watching the screen intensely. "The babies are on the move. Thebabiesareonthemove." He whispered.
"I wanna see!" Ruki put his face in closer to the screen. Uruha also leaned in, still carefully holding onto the transducer.
"The first twin is grabbing the other twin's hand and their fingers are moving!" Miyavi said excitedly.
"They have their fingers?" Kai's face lit up and a tear rolled down his face. Uruha patted his back.
"FINGERS! THEY HAVE FINGERS!" Kai screamed excitedly.
"OOOKAY! Enough excitement, Mr. Kai. We should probably, like, go now." Ruki looked Kai, who hiccuped.
"Fine with me," the sonographer said from the door, startling them all.

"And the babies are so teeny-tiny! What will we name them? I wanna, I wanna name them Naruto! Let's have them both named Naruto! Can we name them Naruto? It would be such fun to name them Naruto! They might be nicknamed ninjas in the playground! I've always wanted to be a ninja! Maybe I can be a mommy-ninja! AND YOU CAN BE THE DADDY-NINJA!" Kai babbled to Miyavi in the car.
Uruha giggled and Ruki rolled his eyes with a smile on his lips. Kai had been watching Naruto in the lobby and thought that Naruto was repulsive, but now...
"Let's wait until the babies are out? Okay?" Miyavi asked patiently from the driver's seat.
"Okay." Kai said happily. Kai's hormones were starting to go crazy, so his emotions tended to be different each minute.
"Where to, peoples?" Ruki asked. Uruha was suddenly really dizzy.
"Umm. I think I want to go home." He said unsteadily.
"Ruha? Sweetie? Are you okay? OH.MYGOSH! You don't look so good. You look kinda green! MIYAVI! HOME! STEP ON IT!"
Uruha sat on the floor of the bathroom, shaking slightly. He had just thrown up. Ruki came in, holding a glass of water.
"Thank you." Uruha whispered hoarsely, taking the water. Kai walked in and gently helped Uruha up.
"Just go to bed." He said.
As Uruha climbed into the comfort of his bed, he felt slightly strange. But before he gave that another thought, he fell asleep.

"Hey. Hey. Are you awake?" Ruki was shaking him.
"Whaa?" Uruha opened his eyes to see Ruki sitting on the bed. The only light source was the one from the hallway. Uruha sat up in the dark, happy to see him.
"How are you?" Ruki asked kindly.
"Do you need something?" Uruha was suspicious.
"OH! ME? Can't I be, like, caring and considerate without arising suspicion? I'm just here to tell you the rest of my story!"
"Okay." said Uruha.
"Ahem. So he wouldn't let me out and he wouldn't stop looking at me, either. Then, I decided to tell him that I was mad because..." He stopped, blushing.
"Because...?"
"That's not important. So I told him stuff and he told me stuff and next thing I know, we're makin' out on his bed. And then he slams me against the wall...blah blah blah...he takes off my clothes...blah blah blah....you guys come in."
"RUKI!" Uruha hit Ruki lightly on the head.
"WHAT?! I'm not going to describe the nasty in the presence of a child!"
"HEY! Just 'cause I'm younger than all of you doesn't mean that I am a child!" Uruha said indignantly.
"I don't mean YOU! I mean--" Ruki clamped his hand over his mouth in sudden horror.
"What? What do you mean? Ruki?" Uruha shook Ruki's shoulder. "Ruki?" Uruha looked at the door to see Kai holding a basket of laundry, looking horrified.
"Oh! Ruki! You didn't!" Kai exclaimed, coming into the room.
"What?" Uruha was still confused.
"Nothing. Go back to sleep. Shhhh..." Kai had put down the basket and tried to tuck Uruha back in. Ruki looked around helplessly.
"What's going on in here?" Aoi turned on the lights.
"Aoi!" Uruha ran to him, hugging him. "They're behaving really weirdly...Like they're hiding something from me!"
Aoi brushed the hair off Uruha's face. "Don't worry, we think you may be pregnant. That's all."
