A/N- Hello again, I am here with an experimental fanfic this time. I haven't wrote in first person before and wondered whether it would make a decent story. So I am here to post this and ask what your views on this style are. I appreciate any comments, whether they are good or bad. Since all reviews aid me in helping me with my writing. I wrote the plot for this a few months back and I wasn't sure whether to write it in first person or not…well enough of me rambling.
Oh and Coelho means bunny in Portuguese.
As always I do not own the characters of DGM (Tyki, Lavi, Komui and whoever else I mentioned) what I do own however is Aleixo and the plot to this. As well as any confusion you may have (I am sorry! I am not use to writing in first person) and the many typos that I have failed to edit out. Yush I know I always get were and was confused…I am working on that…anyway, here is the fanfic. I do hope you enjoy~
Twisted Hope
Memories
Watching the moon in the vast black void known as the sky, I could make out the gentle twinkle of small stars glistening away. It was hard to think that the lovely stars were already dead, and all we can see is the final precious gleam of the white ball of gas. I sigh to myself, it had been a long /long/ day and the pain I felt within my stomach was a reminder of previous events. Leaning against the balcony door, I closed my eyes to enjoy the night wind that toyed against my face and causes my hair to dance. I never had felt so relieved to be safe, away from the claws of viscous animals that wanted to tear me apart, from the claws of death.
"Lavi?" The same smooth voice purred his footsteps padded lightly against the luscious dark purple carpet. I smiled to myself as I felt the arms snake around my waist and the soft lips pressed against my neck.
"Tyki~" I purred, leaning back against his perfect large frame. My eyes closed as I felt the fingertips brush against the bandage that protected my stitches from reopening.
"How was your day?" He asked, leaning his head against my. I could feel the small smile curl his lips against my neck. I never understood how he could pretend that everything was fine. That what happened a few weeks ago was nothing. The Earl finally managed to fall, though I could not see what exactly happened. That night was still a blur. All I remembered was the incredible pain that I had never felt before and the shouts. I remembered panic shouts shattering the atmosphere.
"I have been well" I turned in his arms and pressed my lips against the front of his throat. I could smell the familiar scent of tobacco, whiskey and a hint of mint. Ah, he had been drinking again. Of course he would, he made the choice to abandon his family in order to protect his own.
"Good, have you been resting~?" He pulled ne closer to the alluring warmth of his body, his arms wrap around me more, but not too tightly. He always did hold me as if I was a fragile flower.
I shake my head slowly "No Tyki." Before all this happened I thought my life would be as it always had been. Me training and ignoring the world. Devote myself to one thing and that alone. But ever since I met the Noah of pleasure, my life had spiraled out of hand. Emotions reawakened by the touch of hand, my senses shaken by the stuff we use to do behind the backs of the order and the earl. It was so thrilling, the sneaky sessions of sex, the feeling of him sliding in and out of me. It was all overwhelming but then one day, when we had gotten together for our little sinful pleasure, he had said those words I never expected. I love you. At first I didn't know how to respond but then I knew I wanted nothing more then him and him alone. However, our romance was short lived when we had gotten on the battlefield. We had to fight, to harm one another in order to prevent the suspicious minds of our allies. But three months later I had started to become sick, my body reacted to something that I would soon love.
"Ah, has Aleixo kept you awake~?" His voice was full of pride; his amazing golden eyes glistened with joy. I knew he was remembering the day I had sat him down and told him I was expecting his child. We was both so confused, surely it was impossible for a male to be pregnant. But after countless of examinations Komui still hadn't found a reason. He probably will, once he was back from his little trip. Tyki promised me he would stay by side, to ensure the baby would be safe. Though when the earl found out about this, he had sent akumas after me. We went into hiding. Bookman and I. It was easy to hide, but each day that ticked by slowly I began to worry about the Noah I had given my heart too. I had heard nothing from him for two weeks; normally I would see his teaze flutter by my window. But nothing.
"Sadly yes, it had taken me three hours to settle him down. When I placed him into the Moses basket he began to cry" I sigh softly and rest my head against his chest
"I am sorry my dear Coelho" he ran his fingers along my back in a soothing motion. I shiver slightly and smile, he always did have a way to make me feel eased and relaxed. Even when I found him chained to wall, beaten, broken bones had made his body so week. I couldn't believe what I saw; he had risked his life in order to save me and our son. "I'm here now, so you shall rest. I'll do you a lovely bath, cook for you, and then tend to our son when he needs"
"Oh Tyki, you shouldn't have to do that. I-I am fine honestly" I didn't want to have him do everything, I was suppose to be the one who cooked, tended to the new born and to tend to my lover's needs.
"Lavi" I heard the familiar warning within his voice, I knew I wouldn't win when he used my name. There were only three reasons why he used my name. One would be to warn me that I couldn't win the argument. Two, when I was caught doing mischievous things like drawing upon his face. Lastly when we was making love, the sound of his husky voice moaning my name in my ear was enough to make me hard.
"Fine Tyki. You win." I said with a childish pout upon my face. I knew I could never win against the man.
"Good, now a bath" he placed a finger beneath my chin and very carefully tilted my head back so he could brush his soft lips against mine. I could feel myself quiver at the light the touch; he always did enjoy teasing me. Even if he was teasing me before a kiss.
"Ne, Tyki~" I spoke softly, a mere whisper that was cut short. His lips pressed against my own and loved it. I closed my eyes, I didn't wear the eye patch lately, my despite being blind in one eye I had promised Tyki to not cover it up.
"Now, lay on the bed while I make your bath. I must go downstairs to find the first aid box. I have to change your bandage" I chuckled softly and nipped his lower lip, hearing him purr.
"Of course my darling~" I winked playfully at him and hopped over to the rather luxurious gothic four poster bed. It was huge, though we didn't take much room; Tyki had said it was good for rolling around while we was...engaging ourselves in intimate activities.
As I lay upon the bed I could hear the water begin to fill the bath. I sighed contently, I couldn't ask for anyone better then Tyki. He was perfect for me, even if he still had the Noah inside him. I loved him. I turned my head to the right and saw the familiar Mahogany cot. I chuckled to myself remembering the day Tyki and his brother had spent trying to place the damn thing up, but Allen had taken over and the cot was up in an hour. Both Noah brothers looked at one another, I was amused far too much. Through the wooden bars I could see the soft black hair of my baby, my precious baby boy. His tanned skin, he wasn't as pale as me nor was he as tanned as Tyki. He was somewhere in-between us. His small chest raised a fall in a soothing steady rhythm which made ne sigh softly. I had heard the stories of babies leaving the earth too early, I often worried myself over it but Tyki always reassured me. Sometimes I believed he was trying to ease his own worries down. Aleixo was a premature baby, I had gone into labor a few months earlier then I had been due. Komui later confirmed that it was because of the stress I was under then. We had watched with second that passed by of each day our baby struggling for life. I would never forget what Allen had said, "Each day he grows stronger and stronger because he wants to see his parents." Allen had been our rock, without him I am fairly certain me and Tyki would have stressed each other out. But then came the day me and my love had been waiting for. The way we could bring our son home, we both agreed to have him in our room. I could not allow him to be in his own room, I was far too worried. The first week of him being home, we didn't have much sleep. His small body worried us both but soon we finally saw his strength and Tyki went out to work. He told me he wanted to make this normal, to have a peaceful life now the earl was gone. It amused me greatly the first day Tyki had left for work, oh what does he work as? Ah yes, my Dear lover owns a few clubs. Taverns as Tyki said. I never asked about his work, I didn't want to know as I heard more and more rumors of him working for some sort of gang or was it Mafia...? Anyway, I never ask questions I don't want to know the answers too. There are some things in the world best left unknown to me.
I saw Aleixo move slightly in his cot, his blue blanket had slipped from his grasp; the blanket was gift from Sheryl. He had a woman stitch Aleixo's name on the bottom and he gave it him when came home. Aleixo was rather attached to the blanket. It was his security thing.
"Love?" I glanced over at Tyki and smiled at him, his shirt was un-tucked from his trousers and his hair had fallen a little over his face, the band he used to tie it wasn't very good at keeping it in place.
"Hmm~?" I asked he had a worried look upon his face when he sat down against the bed. I felt the bed dip as he sat, a hand cupping my cheek.
"I called you several times. I was worried you had spaced out" He allowed himself to breathe again; the worried look had changed to one of love as he looked over to the cot. "Ah, was you dwelling in memories again~?" He asked his voice a lot softer now.
"I usually do when left alone. I would rather dwell on the happy memories then... "I couldn't finish that sentence off because I didn't want to think of those memories. They were locked within my mind behind a door that should never be opened again. I placed my head against the feathered filled pillow of my lover's. The smell of him always did calm me down.
"Indeed Lavi, it is better to remember the memories that make us smile" I heard Tyki agree with me, I also felt him plant a kiss against my blind eye. The times I have spent with Tyki were the best times of my life. The thrill of sneaking around, the gentle caresses of his fingertips ghosting over my skin. "Lavi, your bath is ready. I am afraid I could not add your favorite bubble bath within it due to the stitching" I could hear the soft tone in Tyki's voice, the smile upon his lips was always lovely. I often watched him sleep at night; he always has a smile upon his face if he were to dream. Other times I usually woke him when seeing the fear expression appear indicating a nightmare.
"I understand Tyki. I have no intentions of being in the hospital any time soon" A soft chuckle slips passed my lips as I stand. With the help of my lover I was able to tug off the shirt and watched with curiosity as he had removed the slightly blood stained bandage. "Ugh" as soon as I saw the stitching and the sore red flesh that surrounded it, I felt disgusted. However, I also felt delighted. I had a son that I never though was possible. He was my gift of life and one I shall cherish.
"Hmm, seeing that the redness has failed to ease down I think it is wise to place the cream on. I do not want that wound to grow infected." Tyki was kneeling on the floor, his large warm hands rested on my hips as his stunning golden eyes focused on the wound. I knew they had to cut me open but I was off in my dreamland, I also knew that Tyki would remain at my side. He was such a good lover, always there to keep me safe and out of harms way…just like when the earl had me by my throat. I was so sure my life would had ended then but along came my sinful knight…granted it was Joido that had came to my rescue, but to me they was the same person and I couldn't care less.
"Tyki…do I look…bad?" I asked in a timid voice, I couldn't help but feel slightly self-conscious about my body. At first it was just my eye, the dull useless grey thing was something I could not see in the mirror. So I covered it up, out of sight out of mind. Tyki made me take my patch off whenever I saw him, he made me accept the eye. Even when that meant making love in front of the mirror a few times for me to finally like it. However, he allows me to place it on when out in public or if people decide to come to our home. After he has given me a lecture on how beautiful I am.
"Lavi" He stands up, brushing a few hair strands away from my face. "You are the most beautiful thing in all of the world" He smiles at me, that smile was always one of reassurance. That he was right, of course I should have learnt by now that Tyki only speaks the truth. He does not mask anything, nor lies. He was a man of his words.
Placing my hand against his soft tanned cheek I leaned forward and placed a gentle kiss against his lips, tasting the tobacco. 'Naughty Noah, always sneaking off to have a smoke' I mused to myself as I pulled away. "Now, instead of standing here naked I would like to have the bath" I couldn't help but shiver at the look Tyki had just given me. The same look he gives me right before he pounces me. I casually walk by him and duck out of the way of arms that tried to ensnare me in a hug. I swiftly glided over the carpeted and as soon as I was in the bathroom that was attached to our shared room, I climbed into the bath. Wincing due to the slight irritation of the wound I settled down and stuck my tongue out at the pouting Noah that was currently standing in the doorway.
"Enjoy your bath, and remember what I have said. Relax, I have everything under control" Tyki smiled at me and turned his back he closed the door but left it open a crack. I settled down enjoying the warmth that was embracing me. Looking around the room I could see various white candles and after taking a few deep breaths I knew it was some of Tyki's vanilla candles. That man never ceases to amaze me.
After a good ten minuets in the bath reading the book Tyki had gave me, I could hear Aleixo begin to stir awake, his cries started off soft but soon became loud. I wanted to leave the bath, my mothering instincts kicked in. I wanted to scope the boy into my arms and never let him go as his cried were just heart breaking to hear. But just as I was about to stand I heard the soft whispers of Tyki's voice ushering the baby quiet down as "Mommy is relaxing~"
After everything we had been through I was amazed that our relationship had lasted this long. The earl was not at all pleased with his beloved Tyki-Pon when he had found out about us. At first Tyki had told me that the earl wanted to imprison me, to let the Noah of Desire break me. But then Road had let it slip at one of their family gatherings that I was pregnant. This news infuriated the earl and he had enforced for me to die, no matter whether it was the akuma that killed me off, or one of the Noahs. Tyki had phased into my room at one of the inns we were staying at after a simple mission, he had told me to run, to run and never look back. At first I was confused, I wasn't showing any signs of the pregnancy so how did the earl know? Of course, Tyki had told his dear niece since the two was incredibly close and out of the excitement she had let it slip passed her lips. Tyki explained that I was in danger, that it was no longer safe for me anymore. So I slipped away with Bookman. I was hidden from the world and from those I cared about. What happened to Tyki during the time we were apart is still a mystery. The earl must have done something terrible to him, because when I finally found him his body was covered in scars, bones shattered, but he still wore that smile of his.
"Lavi?" I blinked out of my little daydream of remembering the past and glanced up to see Tyki popping his head into the bathroom. "Are you done?" He had asked me and I nodded. I was ready to leave the bath since the water was beginning to grow cold. He walked into the bathroom and helped me out of the bath, since the operation to save our son I was finding it hard to do some simple tasks. He wrapped the large towel around me and hooked an arm around my waist; the other arm supported the back of my legs as he lifted me up without any effort in a bridal style. Carrying me into our room it was only then did I notice that Tyki was shirtless. The baby was back in the cot in a new baby-grow, the bottle that was now empty sat on the night stand. Tyki had fed Aleixo and changed him, probably because he was sick. It would certainly explain the now shirtless Tyki Mikk who was wearing his black and red stripped pajama trousers. I chuckled lightly as he placed me down onto the bed.
"What are you laughing at?" I could detect the hint of curiosity that he had tried and failed to hide in his voice. I held the towel close to my body as I shifted on the bed, I didn't want it to slip or fall as it was the only thing that was keeping me warm.
"Nothing~" I purred softly, my eye was watching Tyki carefully. He was walking over to his set of drawers to pull out one of his old shirts that was too small for him, yet they were too baggy on me. He glanced over his shoulder and watched with fascination as I leaned over to grab his glasses he wore in his human form. I placed them on, I was always interested them, ever since the day I met him on the train. He was playing poker against Krory and of course Krory was loosing, poor thing, Allen decided to play a hand or two and soon reduced Tyki and his friends down to their underwear. I wasn't paying attention at first, I was too busy thinking about other stuff to take note of the almost naked man in front of me who was currently standing in front of me now naked…wait…"Tyki what are you doing?" I asked feeling the bed dip I watched as the naked Noah crawled along the bed and forced me to lay back.
My heart was pounding in my chest as I felt one of his hands slip beneath the towel and trail his fingers against my inner thigh, causing me to gasp when I felt the fingers explore their way to the head of my member. A small amount pleasure ran through my nerves, just enough to waken my cock and make it semi-hard. Damn, my body was so responsive to each delicious touch my lover did to me.
"I want you~" He purred into my ear before nipping the lobe and tugging it very lightly between his teeth. He pressed himself against me; I can feel his erection, hard against my own. This caused me to moan softly. He begins to remove the towel or rather very carefully makes it phase through my body. It was always unusual to feel that, but it made stripping a hell of a lot easier.
"Aleixo will hear us" I arched into him as I feel his hand wrap around my erection and begin to stroke me in slow sensual movements.
"Then you better be quiet" Once Tyki was in the mood for a little love making there was no use in trying to find any excuse not too do it with him. He had a habit of seducing me. He reached over and with a pull of the light switch the lamp went out, masking us darkness. I allowed myself to fall into sinful pleasure.
Oblivious to the new awakening threat that would challenge my trust for my lover, make me question my own sanity and the threat of taking my son away….I wish I knew then….
