Chobits: A Kiss Means Trouble
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN CHOBITS OR ANY CHOBITS RELATED CHARACTERS.
It had been several weeks since Chi's incident. Since then, Chi and Hideki have explored their relationship with each other as well as seek the help of their close friends, Minoru and Yuzuki, when needed. Kotoko and Sumomo have also become closer friends… even though their 'relationship' seems to be nothing but tormenting to Kotoko. However, fate has turned against them as an old friend suddenly reappears and things suddenly go wrong. Could this girl be the key to fixing everything? Things are not all they seem…
Chapitre1: Good morning kiss
The rain was pouring down outside, causing light to disappear. Not even the garden lights so close to the house could be seen. Inside the house, Minoru sat across from Yuzuki, who was connected to his laptop. A stream of white lights flashed across her eyes. Data streams reflected in Minoru's glasses as he performed Yuzuki's weekly system check. Taking his glasses off, Minoru closed the laptop and rubbed his eyes. "That is it for today, Yuzuki. How do you feel?"
"I feel fine, Mr. Minoru. Would you like me to fix you a cup of tea, sir?" Yuzuki unplugged herself from the laptop and got up, smiling.
"Yes, please, Yuzuki. That would be wonderful." Especially on a night such as tonight. Minoru stood up and walked over to the window and looked outside. Nothing could be seen but his reflection in the window. He sighed. Only a few weeks ago had Yuzuki, along with every other persocom in the city, gone into that scary trance. Minoru had been so worried about her then as well as Chi, for he knew it was her causing it. He still worried over Yuzuki, not knowing if anything had truly happened to her since then, but the system check said that she was ok. Minoru had to trust that and just remain calm. As his thoughts drifted over what had happened to them the past few weeks, Yuzuki entered with the tray of tea.
"Mr. Minoru, I have brought your tea." She smiled as he turned to face her. Walking over to him, Yuzuki set the tray down on the coffee table and handed him his glass. "I wonder if Miss Chi and Mr. Motosuwa are doing alright tonight." Yuzuki smiled.
Minoru knew that they were doing well, since there was no way Hideki was going to let anything harm Chi anymore. "I am sure that they are alright." He walked ver to his desk and sat down. Pulling up a picture, he studied Chi's twin. He never fully understood why Chitose Hibiya had modeled Chi after Freya. Deciding that it was best to forget what happened, he deleted the file images of everything that he had received about the Chobit series. He turned to Yuzuki. "I think its time for us to retire for the night." With that, he turned out the lights and left the room.
Hidden away in the darkest corner, two eyes snapped open and only a single phrase was whispered through the darkness and fell upon sleeping worries. "Why…was…I awaken?"
"Incoming Call! Ring Ring! Incoming Call! Would you like me to connect you?" Sumomo danced around on the pillow next to Hideki. When he didn't answer, she replied to no one in particular, "Switching to Answering Machine." After a few minutes Sumomo smiled brightly, saying, "Recording complete! Another success for Sumomo!"
"Sumomo… what's with all the racket? "Hideki grumped and grabbed the pillow that Sumomo was dancing on, making her fall off. Covering his face with the pillow, Hideki mumbled, "Wake me up later…"
Watching all of this made Chi realize that it was time to get up and start on breakfast. Walking over to the closet, she grabbed a pink dress and went to change. A few minutes later, breakfast was ready and Chi walked over to where Hideki lay sleeping and bent over to wake him up. Leaning over his face, she leaned in to kiss him. Not opening her eyes she let the kiss linger a while longer. Opening her eyes, she sat upright, smiling softly as Hideki opened his eyes. "Ah, you're awake…"
"Who could sleep through that?" Hideki smiled back at Chi. Sitting up, he pulled Chi into a deep kiss, returning the favor. After a few minutes, he let her go. "Good morning, love." Getting up, Hideki got dressed and walked over to the breakfast table. "So, Sumomo, what was all that racket for this morning?"
"Master received a phone call this morning from Minoru Kokobunji! Would you like me to play the message?" Sumomo danced around on the table.
Chi set breakfast on the table. After a mouthful of eggs, Hideki replied, "Sure. Go ahead."
"Okie Dokie! Playing voicemail." Sumomo's eyes glazed slightly as a stream of white light flashed through her plum-colored eyes. "Hideki? It's me, Minoru." Minoru's voice filled the room. "There is something you need to see. Please come over to my house when you wake up and please bring Chi with you. I shall be expecting you at noon. Lunch will be served here since what I must talk to you about will, most likely, take a while to talk about. See you then." Sumomo smiled again. "Recording ended. Another great job performed by me!" Sumomo grabbed Kotoko's hands and stared at her expectantly. "Kotoko, aren't you going to congratulate me!"
Kotoko sighed. She would never grow used to this. "Good job, Sumomo…" Kotoko walked up to Hideki. "So, are you going to go? If you do, I am going too." Kotoko didn't feel like being left alone in the apartment, even if it meant sacrificing a good day to be around Sumomo. 20 minutes later, they stood in Minoru's hallway. After putting on their slippers, Hideki and Chi (who was carrying Sumomo and Kotoko on her shoulders) walked up the stairs to Minoru's study. Entering the room, the couple stopped in the doorway. They both stared first at Minoru, then at the amber eyes of the all too familiar persocom lying on the couch across from him.
