Hello all! I was thinking about how to start my authors note. I guess there is a right way, but nah. I have read a lot of fanfictions. My favorites consist of One Piece, Fairy Tale, Inuyasha, The Walking Dead, and Harry Potter. I have never written a fanfiction before. So please, rip me a new one! Please ask me any questions you like, I will honestly try to answer. I am a college student, full time, so updating could be an issue. I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.
My name is Chrissy Hawthorne. Today I move from The US to Japan. My parents recently died, and due to no immediate family my fathers friend, Rintarou, invited me to go live with his daughter and 13 step-sons. I know right, talk about a lot of kids. I've met Rintarou countless times along with his daughter, Ema. We sent pictures to each other daily and messaged each other. I'll be in my 3rd year of college, so I'm excited.
I've been on this plane ride for hours. My butt is so tired. Most of my belongings have been transported to Japan already, all taken care of by Rintarou. I'm very nervous, I've never left the states before, I speak very good Japanese, since I've been learning at a very young age.
On the plane ride I reminded myself not to show my sadness, not to show pain, these people are allowing me to life with them, for I've been in a downward depression, yes I distanced myself from all my friends, and yes I've contemplated suicide.
Getting off the plane was the best feeling. Ok Chrissy, smile, I thought to myself. I grab my carry on bag, along with my two suit cases and head for the pet gate. Rintarou agreed to let me bring my dog Pachi. Once I grab my puppy dog I head to the exit. "Guess I'll grab a taxi and head to the address I have" I say quietly to myself.
"Chrissy-chan!" I head, I turn to see Rintarou running up to me holding a white board with my name on it. Cute.
"Hi, um...thanks for all of this" I say looking down.
"Oh sweety, I'm sorry about your father. I'd do anything for you, you've always been family." We have small talk on the way to where I'm going to live. It's around 145am in Japan. I haven't slept yet, my plan to set my sleeping schedule will hopefully work. Once we arrive Rintarou says, "Everyone is most likely sleeping, so I'll show you to your room." Wait what? He isn't staying? He continues, "My wife and I live elsewhere. They all know you are gonna be there in the morning. They are all good people, they'll always be there."
We take the elevator all the way up and he leads me to the very back corner. The building were in is called the Sunrise Residence Complex. So basically I'll have my own little apartment. Sweetness. The building itself is quite large. Pachi follows quietly behind me. Rintarou unlocks the door and hands me the key. All my belongings and already here. My room has been painted a Tangerine Orange, with purple stripes going diagonally to the right. I had a double bed in the right corner of the room, which was next to the doors to the balcony. The bed was decorated in black pillows and comforter, accented with red and orange pillows too. I had a beautiful black desk up against the wall surrounded by two big black book shelves. "I hope you are still into books, I know you loved them in high school. Your room had mountains of books," says Rintarou. I nodded. I told him all the boxes label 'B' are book, I had three boxes with those labels.
Rintarou tells me a few things about the room, and the complex. He shows me to the common room, the Kitchen, and to the courtyard. He says the boys will explain everything in further detail later, and tells me not to be shy. Right, because I'm so fluffy and open about myself. After a while he leaves, I stay in my room and fall asleep. I dreamt about being back home with my father.
In the morning I'm woke to the sound of yelling. I pop up and think "Oh my god where am I?!" I slowly start to remember what happened so few hours ago. Ok here we go. I go and get myself ready for the day. I take Pachi and together we head for the common room. Once I reach the stairs I hear and see a young boy say, "Mina look a doggy!" He is so cuteee. That voice was followed by a familiar face. "Chrissy! I've missed you!" Ema. We embrace each other in a big hug. She leads me into a room with all the boys.
I'm not going to lie, I've seen my fair share of hot boys, but holy shitballs, these guys could all pass as models! A tall blonde man in a robe walks up to me and kisses my hand. "Chrissy-chan, my name is Kaname, please call me Onii-chan, and come to me for any troubles". I bow and nod my head quickly.
Ema ask all of them to introduce themselves. The cute little boy speaks up first, clearly not shy. "My name is Wataru. I'm 10! I like your doggy." I seriously am gonna die from the cuteness! Next is a very prince-like man, he bows and says, "My name is Iori, I'm 18 and I'm a high school senior." He has an adult look on him, something most boys his age don't have. Next up stood three boys, "We are triplets, I am Tsubaki a voice actor". "I am Azusa also a voice actor". "I am not a voice actor, I am the CEO of a game company. I am also fraternal from my brothers, my name is Natsume. We are all 24". On and on went the names and what they did, finally reached the 11th brother, who I hadn't seen at all. My heart fluttered! He was so handsome, he was taller than me by at least 8 inches. DONT BLUSH, I yelled to myself. He had a very cute charm to him. Before he spoke he looked a bit nervous. The cute boy, Wataru, patted his leg like he was urging him to speak. "Uh..hello. My name is Masaomi, I am the eldest, 31, and a Doctor. I am sorry we didn't greet you properly when you arrived," he bowed. I just stared, he had beautiful golden brown eyes, with light brown hair. His build was fit.
Finally I realized I needed to speak. I bow, "it's a pleasure to meet all of you. Please don't worry about it, I know I came at a very unreasonable time. You all are very kind to take me in. Please take care of me". I finally realized that I only met eleven of them. "Um, maybe I miscounted but I thought there were 13 Asahina's?" This got a giggle out of Masaomi, "yes, Fūto and Hikaru are not currently here". Oh duh, of course I'm magically supposed to know that. It was silent for a few moments, then everyone apologized because they had work and school. The only people left in the house were Masaomi, Subaru, Kaname and I.
"I have to walk Wataru-chan to school, feel free to make yourself at home," says Masaomi. He is so kind, I kinda don't want to left here with Kaname-san and Subaru-kun, so I ask, "Would you mind if I joined you?" They agreed. We left moments later. Wataru asked many questions, he is such a cute boy.
We reached the gate to his school, "bye Masaomi-nii, bye Chrissy-neechan!" Wataru shouted as he ran for the doors of his school. Masaomi and I walked in silence. I guess this is awkward for both of us. "I hope you aren't overwhelmed. I know we can be a lot to handle". He's worried about me, say something you fool, I scream to myself. "Oh no, I'm alright. This is new to me, I've always been an only child. I didn't have many friends either, so a lot of people makes me a bit uneasy". He gave me a puzzled look, "you didn't have many friends? I find that hard to believe. Could I ask why?" Please don't, I hate telling this story. I should lie, but I know I couldn't, not to that face. "I had a lot of friends until middle school when my mother was killed in a store shooting," I paused feeling emotions I wished faded. "My friends, couldn't understand the pain I felt, they thought losing a mother was contagious (haha), I eventually just stayed away". I stayed silent, hoping he would feel my uncomfortableness. Minutes passed until he spoke, "I am sorry, kids are cruel in this world. My father left us, right after Wataru was born. He was shunned in school, if anyone can understand you, it is him". He put an arm around me and pulled me into a hug. He patted my head like I was a child. I felt my cheeks reddening, I blinked uncontrollably. Realizing what he was doing he pulled back and rubbed his hand through his light brown hair, "hahaha sorry I hug all my kids at the hospital it was a habit!" I laughed at this. Great I'm a child in his eyes! The moment we began to walk a man ran past me thrusting me into Masaomi's arms. His arms grabbed hold of me, the warmth filled my body from head to toe. I knew I was blushing. There was no hiding it. Oh shit, I thought, don't look up! I left his embrace and bowed "I'm sorry" like 15 times. He chuckled and said it was alright. He walked I front of me, I could see the slightest of pink on his cheeks. He couldn't be blushing could he? When we reached the house I could see Pachi in the common room window wagging his tail. Masaomi entered and went up stairs, I followed silently behind him.
Time flew by quickly that day. Although, all I could think about was that hug I shared with Masaomi. How am I to face him? I may blush, or worse...drool. Soon Ema arrived back home from school, with Yusuke.
Later that evening Ukyo-san arrived home and started preparing dinner. I walked in and offered my assistance, he graciously accepted. We talked about his job, and what it was like growing up with so many brothers. Ukyo was easy to talk to he was so polite. Ukyo asked Wataru-chan and I to set the table. Wataru-chan told me all about his day at school. It was cute, he was really trying to make me feel welcome. All the people gathered. Kaname-san and Louis-San helped bring the food to the table. Everyone began eating. Azusa-San spoke up and said, "this Yakitori is wonderful! Amazing job Ukyo-nii!" Ukyo-San then spoke up, "I didn't make it, Chrissy-chan did". They all gasped and said it was delicious. I reddened. I didn't blush until Masaomi said, "this is an exceptional dish, you cook often?" That's when I blushed! Damn it! "Uh, yes. I-I do". Ema-chan spoke up next, "she lived by herself most of the time since her father was working so she learned recipes on her own. She is very good". We all talked for a good while, they all told stories of growing up. I was a little jealous of everyone.
Yusuke then asked, "Chrissy-chan, I must have missed this, but how old are you?" I hadn't told them have I? "I am 20 years old. I'll be going to Meiji University with Subaru-kun". This got wide eyes from everyone, including Subaru-kun. "Did Rintarou not tell you guys that part...?" They all nodded. We'll then. This is awkward. They all asked me about about what courses were my favorites and stuff like that. I honestly didn't know what to say. I answered languages and science classes. After dinner, 3 of they boys washed dishes and cleaned up. I got Pachi ready for a walk. As we were heading out the door Masaomi stopped me. He told me it was dangerous to go out alone. Thus that led him to come with us for the walk. We didn't talk. Both of us were just silent. What if he is mad about earlier? Should I say something. Maybe I should say something.
"I-I am so sorry" I bow really low. He looks confused.
"Why are you apologizing?"
"What happened earlier, I'm sorry if it made you uncomfortable. I'll be more careful from now on". Then he laughed. He was laughing. At me. What?
"You thought I was uncomfortable. I apologize, then, to you. I was afraid you were upset with the whole thing. I'm not used to having girls around. When Ema arrived that was truly an adjustment, but now with you I think it could become easier. Most of us, don't hangout with many girls". After all that we talked normally. He told me about his job, and about his mother. He told me he is scared of the sight of blood, but he is trying to overcome it. He was very sincere the entire time. He didn't hold much back, he never mentioned a girlfriend. Or a wife, but I didn't see a ring so it's ok. Maybe I could like him. Maybe.
Hope you enjoyed that. I loved Masaomi from the moment I saw him in the anime, followed by Subaru. They are just really enjoyable.
