Lovers of Loving Love

Joce: Hello! ((Grins and waves.)) To begin with, Keichii and Onitidus requested I write this. Secondly, they are not really gay. Third, if a part seems confusing… um… e-mail me or something. ((Laughs insanely.))

Mixen: Um… Joce, tell them who you are and what this is about.

Joce: Oh yeah. I'm Aibou from the Unicorn server on Final Fantasy XI, Keichii and Onitidus are both from the Unicorn server too. Let's see… What else… Oh yeah, I'm writing this for them! ((Evil, wide grin. Looks at Mixen.)) He's the random part of my mind, mainly the emotions I blocked off for the most part. ((Stares blankly.))

Mixen: Fear, sorrow, and got some extra like happiness and hyperness. ((Giggles.))

Joce: ((Mutters.)) And girly-ness…

Mixen: ((Stares at her.))

Joce: Ok! I'm writing now! Sorry if I mess up a bit you two… ((Laughs sheepishly.))

DISCLAIMER: I only own Aibou and Uboia in this chapter... and those two kids. Onitidus and Keichii own themselves. And Final Fantasy XI belongs to Square Enix. And if ya'll think otherwise… BITE ME! ((Ducks.))

FAMILIARTIES

(v-v)(v-v)(v-v)(v-v)(v-v)

Keichii sat on the ground, leaning back against the table and staring up at the ceiling, listening to the rain pound onto the ground and roof. It had a rhythmatic melody to it; he sighed softly – he was really… really… really bored. He turned his head slowly to look at the door for the umpteenth time that hour, wondering when either Onitidus or Aibou would be back… Or Uboia for that matter. He ran his hand through his soft, slightly long blonde hair, deciding he should go look for them if they weren't back in the next five minutes. He froze… he felt like he was being watched… intently; he shivered and turned his head to look towards the inside doorway of the little house on Ore Street, address of J-7 on the second floor. Of course… There was no home below this one. He stared back at the Galkan child, Gumbah, puzzled at to why he was staring in the first place.

"What Gumbah?" Keichii asked, staring back, not blinking.

"Where are your friends?" Gumbah asked – Keichii briefly wondered why the normally noisy Galkan child was so quiet but pushed that thought away.

"I don't know." Keichii answered after a moment of silence.

"Shouldn't you be looking for them? That's what real friends do, right?" Gumbah asked, staring still. Keichii raised an eyebrow – does he have a staring problem or something?

"They told me to wait here and they'd be back." Keichii replied, beginning to feel disturbed.

"They were supposed to be back hours ago, weren't they?" Gumbah asked again, eyes still locked on Keichii.

"I don't know… What time is it?" Keichii asked, looking towards the door – Gumbah seriously had some staring problems.

Gumbah opened his mouth to speak before the doors were slammed opened and Onitidus came strolling in, laughing, "Honey! I'm home!"

"It's definitely the acid." Aibou commented, following him in.

"I am not on acid, thundercunt." Onitidus stated, crossing his arms, sulking and looking away from the blonde Elvaan. Keichii couldn't help but laugh – good old same sense of humor.

"You asshat, 'least I'm not going and smokin' weed while sharing it with the guards 'round here!" Aibou shouted.

"It's not my fault they asked me for s – damn you!" Onitidus yelled; Keichii and Aibou burst out laughing.

"Gumbahhhh!" yelled a voice sounding vaguely like a female Hume's – the owned of the voice burst through the doors, her blonde hair held up in a high ponytail and bangs covering most of her right eye.

The other three blonde occupants and the Galkan child all looked towards her – Aibou was the first to wave.

"Hiya, Uboia." Aibou said, grinning cheekily and tackle-hugging her. Uboia fell over backwards with the blonde, female Elvaan on top of her, hugging her.

"'Ey, Aib. Could you let go and get off?" Uboia asked, muffled from underneath Aibou. Aibou pouted and looked sappily at Onitidus – who looked sappily back, both embracing and coming up with random sob stories from their contacts for random quests. Uboia and Keichii looked at each other, then back to the embracing blondes, wondering if they were EVER sane.

"No… comment… ever." Keichii concluded, staring at them. Both of them separated, staring at Keichii like he'd grown three heads.

"Gumbah, Detzo is looking for you, he's downstairs – Black Mud told me he's waiting inside the Alchemy Guild downstairs." Uboia said, turning to look at the Galkan child.

"Hut 32, Hut 34!" Onitidus yelled, he tackled Aibou who had recently been told to go open the door for a minute. Both of them rolled around on the ground, the rain soaking them again. Keichii poked his head out the door, looking down at them, snickering. Both were laughing insanely – they were tickling each other.

"Hey, Oni, you aren't a ball player either." Keichii called over the rain.

"Where's your proof?" Onitidus shot back, looking at him, aghast – but burst out laughing when Aibou began tickling his side and neck. Keichii couldn't help but snicker even in the slightest; he rolled his eyes and looked back down at them.

"Where's your ball if you're a ball player?" Keichii asked, smirking.

Aibou and Onitidus both halted and looked at each other… before bursting out laughing. Keichii looked puzzled for a moment before realization dawned on him.

"Oh come on guys! Be serious for five minutes." Keichii complained, before he began to laugh as well.

"You said it, not me." Onitidus retorted, snickering.

"Wh-" Keichii began.

"Hey guys, there's a kid down there." Aibou said from the corner of where the wooden bridge-structure met the area around the little house. She was looking down and to the right past Tall Mountain, pointing with her right hand looking bored.

"Stop moving around so much." Keichii said, wondering when she'd moved – then he remembered that she was Aibou… she didn't need a reason to let people know when she moved. Damned hyper blondes. He shook his head; he's blonde too.

"Smartass!" Aibou yelled at him.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Keichii said. At that point, he felt like tossing the Red Mage over the rail. Said Red Mage looked up from her position on the ground, staring between then two.

"Well, anyone gonna' get the kid?" Aibou asked, scowling. At this point, Keichii looked kind of annoyed, he scowled back at her.

"Fine, smartass." Keichii said, walking across the ramp, past the door to the left and going through the second door. Going down the stairs and walking towards the alley where the kid was.

"Takes one to know one!" Aibou called after him. She glanced at Onitidus who was dancing around in the rain with his head tilted back and his arms around wide, mouth slightly ajar.

"Um…" Uboia began, snickering.

"Oni, you're gonna end up drowning like a turkey does on a rainy day." Aibou commented, laughing insanely. Onitidus turned his head to her and scowled.

"Oh shut up, whore bag." Onitidus said, smirking when she threw him a dirty look.

"Ass fucked pig." Aibou retorted.

Onitidus looked puzzled – that was a new one… "Atleast I'm not bleach blonde."

"Stuff it, turkey." Aibou said, snorting. Onitidus looked baffled.

"Me? A turkey? Whore bag!" Onitidus said, crossing his arms and looking at her indignantly.

"You already said that, femmy." Aibou said, sticking her tongue out playfully.

"Kei's femmy, not me." Onitidus said, pointing down to the first level where Keichii currently was.

"Ok, that's weird, he's the warrior… But he's scrawny like a girl… And you're the summoner… and you aren't so scrawny…" Aibou said; she looked really puzzled.

"And you're scrawny, femmy, and a red mage." Onitidus said, laughing, ignoring her comment. Aibou withdrew a Yagudo Drink from her bag and chucked it at Onitidus, nailing him in the head.

"Shove it, turkey." Aibou said, scowling before laughing.

(x-x)(x-x)(x-x)(x-x)(x-x)

Keichii approached the Hume child, crouching down beside the small girl who looked to be about seven years old. Keichii froze – she looked very familiar… He rocked back and forth on his feet in anticipation before he spoke up, "Hey, you ok kid?"

The little blonde girl looked at him, her hair was down to mid-way through her back and Keichii thought that her eyes were a familiar shade of blue. She nodded numbly, staring at him with recognition – recognition he did not know why.

"Y-yes, I'm just waiting for my brother." she responded, staring at him. Keichii raised an eyebrow, looking at her curiously.

"Where's your brother?" the warrior asked, reaching a hand out to help her up. She took his hand and he pulled her up.

"H-" the little girl began – she was interrupted by another voice.

"What do you think you're doing with my sister?" Keichii turned around and looked down, almost coughing at how familiar the boy looked – his hair was blonde and a little longish and he had the same familiar blue eyes.

"I'm only making sure she's alright…" Keichii murmured, trying to place who these two kids looked similar to. The little blonde Hume boy seemed to glare at Keichii as if he was blaming him for something.

"Whatever… I'm Shoujin. She's Ashiama," the boy said, crossing his arms and looking angry, "What's YOUR name." it was more of a statement than a question.

"I'm Keichii… Hey, you guys want to get out of the rain?" Keichii asked, looking up towards where Onitidus, Aibou and Uboia were currently stationed.

"Yes please da –…" Ashiama began – Shoujin had covered her mouth, giving her a sharp look.

"Alright, come on." Keichii said, wondering why Shoujin was acting so… un-childlike. He started to walk, but didn't hear footsteps and he turned back around, "What?"

Ashiama raised her arms in the air, bringing upon the impression that she wanted to be carried. Keichii looked towards Shoujin who flipped him off and walked past him – Keichii staggered, 'What the hell?'

"Kei-chan, carry me!" Ashiama whined, looking up at Keichii with big, round, childlike eyes.

"Kei-chan?" Keichii voiced, raising an eyebrow. Why did she want him to carry her? He just met her – he looked down at her, big mistake.

(x-x)(x-x)(x-x)(x-x)(x-x)

Onitidus burst out laughing when he saw Keichii coming towards them carrying Ashiama, who looked absolutely gleeful. Keichii scowled and shot him a dirty look.

"You dumbass, getting caught off-guard like that by a kid." Onitidus said, grinning widely.

"Watch your language around the kids." Uboia and Aibou said at the same time. Keichii rolled his eyes and walked inside, dropping Ashiama off with her brother and walking back outside.

"I've always wondered why there were two beds in there…" Keichii said grinning.

"Hahaha, bloody staring Gumbah." Onitidus commented, laughing.

(v-v)(v-v)(v-v)(v-v)(v-v)

Joce: Hey, look, a monkey. Ah, not much happened, I got a headache… Look a monkey.

Mixen: You already said that.

Joce: Shut up. Eh, let's ask the masters how I did.

Onitidus: Pretty awesome, got me perfectly pretty much. Keep up the good work, I love you. P lmao

Keichii: exact same thing as Oni. In fact...he stole that line from a message I sent to him. I'll rephrase though. Godly work Ai. It's impressive on how you can get our personalities down so perfectly. Keep up the good work. Much love, Kei.

Joce: There you have it. I'ma start on part 2 soon… I hope… Time for more music, ya'!

Mixen: 1) You aren't Jamaican. 2) You aren't Wakka either.

Joce: Oh shut up. ((Whacks him over the head.))
