Disclaimer: I don't own Prince of Tennis! But I own Kasumi! XD

Here is a little Niou and Kasumi one-shot fluff as promised! If it wasn't to be battle of the two Kings I would've make her ended up with Niou already as he's also one of my favorites!

My apologies if this does not come out as good as you guys were expecting! Please tell me what you think about it as well, ne?

This is set after their High School… So if both of them were eighteen at that time, they're now thirty!


I remember the looks in his eyes and his loving touches during our times together… I remember his sweet whispers, his laughter, his warmth, and his masculine presence that I've grown to love during our years together ever since High School…

I remember the words he told me every time during our nights together. It made me realized how lucky I am to have him by my side…

With his arms around me, holding me close, his deep voice lulls me into dreamless sleep…

"All through the night I'll be watching over you, and through bad dreams, I'll be right there babe…

"Holding your hands… Telling you everything is all right…

"And when you cry, I'll be right there… Telling you that you were never anything less than beautiful, my love…" He would always whispers.


I think I asked her very often the same question…

"Are you happy with me?" I asked her this at the beginning of our relationships, our engagement, our marriage and our parenthood. "Are you sure you want this with me?"

"Am I happy with you?" She would ask back with a steel look in her eyes that would make Sanada proud. "Don't ask me silly thing like this, you already know my answer."

Her sweet voice, her touches, her kisses… I love everything about her…

And when you are in love, you will worry about not being good enough to keep your lover happy… I am another person with that thought.

However, I became the happiest man when she finally answered my question a night before she gave me two beautiful sons of ours…

"On our first night, an angel came to me…" Deep, gorgeous blue eyes of hers stare into my soul. "She told me that it was already time for her to take you away from me… But she didn't… It was because I told her…

"'You guys already have your own heaven, so please don't take my heaven away from me'…"

I would never give her, or our family, for anything… Nothing…


12 years later…

CRASH! BANG! CLANG!

Oh Kami… What now!?

Why do they have to make such a ruckus in the morning that I'm having a day off from my evil boss like this!?

I groan, roll on to my stomach and pull the blanket over my head. Ahh… Nice, warm bed… Back to sleep… Zzz…

… Just when something… More specifically, somebody decides that they don't want me to go back to sleep! ARGH! DON'T lay on me, dammit!

No one disturbs me in my sleep! NO ONE!

But since he's my husband and has a nice body I'll make that exception. I don't wanna be a widow yet! Not at this age!

"Darling, the boys are blowing up the kitchen." A drawl is followed by nuzzle on my neck. I feel the strong, broad chest behind me rumbles as he chuckles and pulls me against him. "I think they're hungry, love. I am too."

I growl sleepily. "Geroffme…" I mumble and try to push him off.

Dammit! Why does he have to take a shower just now!? His damn minty scent is too fresh it's waking me up!

"Masaharu… I'm too tired… Just let me sleep…" I open my eyes wearily to look at the silver-blue pair of my husband. Those orbs twinkle mischievously as he grins.

"Tired from last night?" He leans forward and touches my nose with his. "How about a rerun of that?"

Ooh… He did not just suggest that, right?

ARGH!!! Stupid, pervert thoughts! Go away! I wanna sleep!

I glare at him. "You have exactly ten seconds to let go of me, go downstairs and look after the boys until I finish showering." I tell him seriously. "One." I start counting and smirk as he let go with a pout.

…Trust Masaharu to remain the same as the time when we were in High School!

"Not fair, it's your day off, so why can't we have some fun?" He mutters and rakes his hand through his shaggy silver-blue hair.

I smile inwardly. Masaharu is cute when he starts sulking! "One, the Godfathers are coming over for the brunch, and I need to prepare the food, and two-."

CRASH!

"Kaa-san!" Two small blurs tackle me down onto the bed again, and they're sitting on me! "Kaa-san, Uncle Hiroshi is saying he's bringing uncle Akaya for the brunch as well!" one boy chirps

"And Uncle Kura is bringing uncle Hikaru with him!" another boy chirps.

Oh my Kami… And I thought that my migraine would be completely cured since we've graduated from high school… Apparently I was wrong!

A new form of migraine comes in the names of Niou Matsuhiro and Niou Kanou! MY SONS!

"Hiro, Kanou, what did I say about barging into the room like that?" I sigh tiredly at both of our sons, whereas Masaharu is sitting there and grinning at both boys…

Like father, like sons they say…

By the age of four, both of the boys have unfortunately inherited all of Masaharu and my devious traits already… Nothing I can do about that though…

Seeing that it's probably either they get it from Haru or from me! I'm just grateful they didn't get Seiichi's!

Thank Kami that Yukimura Seiichi is currently out of town. YES! MY BOYS' SANITY WILL BE SPARED FOR ANOTHER WEEK OR SO!

Matsuhiro, the older one of the twins by five minutes who's inherited all his father looks save for his midnight-blue eyes like mine, gives me a shy look. "You told us to knock before we enter?" He says sheepishly.

"Yes, that." I sigh. "And what is it with all these crashes downstairs? What did I tell you about making noises in the morning?"

Kanou, the younger one of the twins with his looks exactly like a carbon-copy of Masaharu, grins. "You said we need to keep it low. But kaa-san, I really want to see Uncle Kura! Ecstasy!"

Oh Kami NOOO… What on earth possessed me to choose Kuranosuke as Kanou's godfather!?

That man will be the death of me! I should've known that Kanou's vocabulary will develop backwards hanging around that man! The only word that he seems to say is 'ecstasy'!

My hubby chuckles and stands up. "Come on, lads. We'll leave your mother to get up." He bends down and kisses my cheek. "I'll be downstairs with the boys, love. Take your time." He strides out of the room with the boys bouncing out after him.

Honestly, I'm lucky to marry that man…

When we got together and started dating after High School and announced it to our friends, they all looked at us like we've grown heads, and when we got married.. Hoo, boy… THAT was a Sony Cybershot moment, I'll tell you!

Their jaws were all on the floor! Mwahaha!

But the funniest part must be when Masaharu and other guys found out I'm pregnant! You'll never see my husband spluttering at any other circumstances; however he was spluttering and bouncing around, shouting in joy like a mad man.

And sometimes I think he's just that, haha.

Of course, the ex-Rikkai Regulars teased us about how 'busy' we were during the honeymoon. Yes, we blushed. Yes, we were kinda busy during the honeymoon. And yes, they shut up immediately after Masaharu threatened them with the ultimately modified version of my Shot-up drink.

Cha! Teach'em not to mess with Masaharu and me!

Masaharu really surprised me during my pregnancy. He brought his work home during my last few weeks of pregnancy so he can watched over me. And he took care of our babies when I needed him to and he has been nothing but a loving and supportive husband to me and father to the kids…

Tell you the truth… It's quite surprising as well. I've imagined us to be the last one with children among our friends. It turned out that we were the first and foremost ones!

I finish all the things upstairs and come down to prepare the brunch. After some threats and scolding to the 'men' of the house, I manage to get everything finished up nicely before the guests arrive.

Talking about guests… They should be here by now…

DING DONG!

Ah, there they are!

"UNCLE!!!" CRASH!!!

Oh bloody Kami, why do they have to break everything in their paths now?

"Hey, how're you boys doing?" Yes! Thank Kami for sending Hiroshi to the rescue! It's nice to know that there's someone other than me that has not gone insane yet! "Where're your Dad and Mom?"

"Right here, Hiroshi." Masaharu stands up and follows me out to the front door.

"Nee-san!" Yup, it's Akaya and Hiroshi all right. "I'm hungry!" Akaya pounces at me.

CRASH! I wince as Haru pulls me out of Akaya's attacking range and that makes him crashed into the table nearby. Aw, poor Akaya…

"Please refrain yourself from crushing my wife, Akaya." The (still) trickster grins casually and nods at the gentleman of our group. "Yo, Hiroshi. Come on in, Kasumi got the brunch ready and now we-." He stops and holds his hand out from behind me.

What on earth is he doing?

My answer comes with a BANG! …And also a figure that drops on our carpet.

Speaking about over-protective…

I help the man in front of me to stand up on his feet. His dark green eyes twinkle as he sees me despite the red hand-shaped mark on his cheek. "Nee-san!"

I give him and the blond newcomer a smile. "Hey, Hikaru, Kura, glad you guys made it."

Shiraiishi Kuranosuke and Zaizen Hikaru, my friend and another adoptive baby brother from Junior High School in Osaka!

Kura moves forward to peck me on the cheek but stops and settles for a pat on the head as Masaharu growls at him. Masaharu is so cute when he's jealous! I giggle to myself and urge them all into the kitchen, only to be stop by my own husband.

Now he's acting weird…

I blink. "Masaharu?"

Masaharu smirks and leans in until his nose touches mine. "I want a kiss. I've not been given a proper good morning kiss from you yet."

I sigh and push him lightly. "Haru…" I start just to have my lips capture with his in a loving kiss.

Dammit! Why the hell Masaharu does have to be a damn good as hell of a kisser?

But it sure as hell feels good!

I close my eyes and lean into his kiss… Even being with him ever since High School, this man never ceased to amaze me as to how devoted and affectionate he can be with me and the boys… Hell, not that I'm complaining!

Even his sexy body remains the same from tennis! Whoever invented that sport must be a genius since all of Haru's muscles are still in the right place! Mwahaha!

Just as Masaharu pulls me closer something hits him on the back of his head. I jump away from him just to see Akaya standing there with a horrified look on his face, along with Kanou and Matsuhiro watching our previous…er… interaction curiously.

Shite, Masaharu must be pissed as hell!

"Ew, Niou-senpai! Don't do the exchanging-cooties stuff in front of me and the kids! Ew, I'm so not supposed to see you kissing nee-san!" Akaya exclaims and starts ranting about how we're supposed to be doing this kind of thing in private and away from the eyes and such.

Sometimes I pity Akaya, he just never learn how Masaharu can be when he's pissed off… I sigh helplessly. Oh well, I don't blame him. Even I'm his wife; I'm still confused with the way he acts sometimes!

"Kirihara Akaya…" I see my husband's eyebrow twitches furiously… Oops, Akaya's body won't be a pleasant sight! "I'll show you cooties!" He snarls and lungs for ex-demon of Rikkai.

I feel my resolve melt away at Akaya's puppy eyes sending my way. ARGH! I hate Kami for making me a total sucker for that trick! Akaya uses this on me all the times when he's about to get into trouble with Genichirou or Masaharu…

What can I say? At least he knows it will works for sure…

Just hope he won't teach my sons this or else it'll be the death of me!

I snicker softly and tug my husband's arm to get his attention. "Masaharu, dear, let him go." I croon sweetly. "You can give him the juice later; let's just enjoy the brunch for now. I'm sure the boys are hungry, no?" I turn to look at our two boys; they nod vigorously.

Our sons are so cute! They'd all grow up to be some serious heart-breakers! Mwahaha!

My husband scowls at Akaya, and then turns to kiss my cheek soundly. "You're right, love. Let's get it start, then." He laughs as our sons start bouncing around us in excitement.

Now this is a real sight to behold: Masaharu, our sons, and our friends spending their time all together… And I won't trade what I have here for anything!

The brunch is loud and fun, as usual. I look at all of my friends and my small family from where I sit and allow myself a small smile as Masaharu's hand finds mine and entwines my fingers with his under the table… His soft and loving silver-blue gaze locks onto my blue ones.

In the end, I probably would have to thank fate for giving me this nice simplicity…

CRASH!

"Kaa-san, Hiro took my meat!" Kanou shouts.

I think I've spoken too soon. Let me change that will you?

Screw fate! I'll teach them to behave themselves and not to grow up into their father during High School! CHA!

Niou-Kisaki Kasumi fighting!


Care to guess who said what at the beginning two sections before the '12 years later'? XD

Well, how's that? I hope you all like it!

It's quite sweet and I really LOVE Kasumi and Masaharu together! From what I've written so far they're the ones that the reviewers think have cute interactions between both of them! Masaharu called her 'love', 'sugar' and all those pet names!

I almost melt into a puddle of goo trying to think how Masaharu and Kasumi's sons will be like with all those descriptions and such. But I guess we are all grateful that we won't have more mini-Seiichi running around…yet.

Shiraiishi Kuranosuke is Shitenhouji's captain who defeated Fuji in the OVA during the semi-finals. Zaizen Hikaru is the 'genius' of Shitenhouji who played double 1 with Chitose Senri against Tezuka and Inui!

Hahaha, any other suggestion for Kasumi and other Prince one-shot? I can try to make another Niou and Kasumi one-shot with another setting, or maybe try other pairings! Just tell me what you guys think!

Review please! XD
