Chapter 2: Parting Ways

It was two days later and Ryouta was sound asleep in his bed. It was peaceful and nothing could wake him up at this moment. His bed felt so good and he just wanted to stay in it all day. Everything was quiet and everything seemed like it was about to go his way until.

"BIG BROTHER!"

Ryouta awoke to see two little boys standing at his bedside. Enter Katon and Hiei, Ryouta's little brothers. The two were twins but could be told apart from their hair styles and eyes. Katon looked a little bit like his mother he had blue hair that hung down to his back. He had blue eyes and his skin color was the same as his mothers. Hiei looked identical to his father he had short spiky brown hair. His eyes were hazel and his skin color was the same as his father. The two were in their school uniforms which were black pants with a white button up shirt and white sneakers. Both of the boys were 13 years old but Katon was older by 5 minutes.

"What do you two want so early in the morning" He groaned. Both of the boys smiled and pulled the covers off him "It's time to get up" They said in union. The two began to laugh as they seen how annoyed their big brother was getting "You just had to have twins didn't you mom!" He called out.

"Oh hush you love them!"

Ryouta turned to see Kyou standing at his door. 'Oh god here comes their partner in crime' He thought to himself. "They are so adorable! I just love them" She said as the boys ran over to hug them. Ryouta scratched his head and sighed "Well if you love them so much then please take them!" He said.

Kyou smirked at him "Well if I could I would" she teased. Ryouta just sighed and stood up "Get out so I can get changed" he ordered. Kyou raised her eyebrow at him "You didn't say please" she replied. Ryouta sighed and then looked at her "Well then if you want to stand there and watch you can. I mean I got nothing to hide it doesn't bo-" He started until a book came flying past him.

He gave her a nervous smile as sweat dripped down his face "Can you 'Please' leave the room so I can get changed?" He asked. She gave him a smile back "Thought so" She replied as she left the room. Ryouta smirked and sighed as he began to get dressed. Kyou headed down the stairs to see his mother Chiyuri in the kitchen cooking breakfast. "Would you like to join us for breakfast?" She asked. Kyou smiled and nodded "If it's alright I kind of rushed out to get here that I forgot to eat" Kyou replied.

"Well if it isn't my future daughter in law!"

The girls turned to see Katsu walking into the kitchen. The statement caused Kyou to blush "Dear you shouldn't be saying that. They're not even a couple" Chiyuri corrected. Katsu just laughed as he sat down at the kitchen table. "I'm just teasing her! It's nice to see you again Kyou" He greeted. Kyou smiled at him and sat down at the table "It's nice to see you too Mr. Kazuki" She greeted back.

15 minutes had passed before Ryouta and his brothers came down the stairs and joined them for breakfast. "I swear I hate school" Ryouta sighed. Kyou smirked "Well deal with it. You need school to achieve your goals unless you want to grow up to be nothing" She said. Ryouta rolled his eyes knowing she was right. "Sometimes you just got to let the girls have the last say son. Don't you know they rule the world" Katsu stated as he took a sip of his coffee.

Ryouta took a bite of the boiled egg he was was eating "Yeah they only rule it it because if we men say something women don't agree with. They throw books at you and sometimes will hit you with a roundhouse kick" Ryouta said as he narrowed his eyes at Kyou who raised an eyebrow which made him look away immediately.

"Kyou I got a 100 on my math homework yesterday" Katon announced. Kyou smiled at the boy sitting next to her and rubbed his head "Good work I'm glad to see you guys are into your school work unlike someone I know" She said as she looked at Ryouta. Ryouta shook his head and looked at his brothers "If I wasn't into my school work I wouldn't be passing like I am now would I?" He asked. Kyou just smiled and continued to eat.

Breakfast had ended 10 minutes later and the two headed for school on Kyou's bike. When they finally made it the two walked inside of the school where they saw Nagisa, Tomoya and Youhei standing in the hallway. They seemed to be talking to someone, and Ryouta and Kyou went to check it out. When they finally reached them Ryouta's eyes went wide when he realized who was in front of them. "Keiji!" Ryouta exclaimed. Ryouta took a step closer but Tomoya stood in his way know that Ryouta didn't what Keiji did to Kyou "What hell are you doing here?" He asked in anger.

Keiji smirked and shook his head "Isn't obvious but the uniform I'm wearing I'm a student here now" he replied. Ryouta growled and tried to break through Tomoya's hold "You're a lair!" He called out. Kyou looked at Ryouta with a shocked look. She had never seen him get this angry before.

"That's enough Ryouta!"

Ryouta turned his sights to Tomoyo who was walking down the hall behind Keiji. Once she reached them she put her hands on her hips "He's telling the truth I was the one that got him into this school I had to pull a few strings but I made it happen along with the help of Fujibayashi" She stated. Ryouta eyes went wide as he turned to look at Kyou "How could you? He attacked you Kyou" He stated.

It's true I did but I made up for it. Trust me that girl will not hesitate if you give her an open shot for revenge" He said as he rubbed his cheek. Ryouta turned his sighs back to Kyou "You hit him so that makes everything okay?" He asked.

Tomoya nodded "She got even and he apologized for it so everything so we should just drop it" He stated. Kyou looked at Kyou with a stern look "I'm class Representative Ryouta regardless what happened I'm glad to help anyone who wants to learn..even if it's him" She said. Ryouta stayed silent for a moment before he sighed "Fine...If that's how it is I won't attack him" he replied.

Everyone smiled at his reaction glad he wasn't going to push it any further. Class had gone by pretty quickly and lunch was right around the corner. When it was finally lunch time Kyou walked over to Ryouta's desk as he was putting away his notebook. She handed him a Bento box and smiled "This is for you I forgot to give it to you this morning. Well got to go I'm going to have lunch with Ryou and Tomoya; see you later!" She said as she began to walk out the room.

"Kyou wait! I thought we would-" He started but too late as she was already gone. Ryouta looked at the bento and sighed as he slowly began to open it.

"Shot down huh?"

Ryouta looked over his shoulder to see Youhei standing next to him. He just gave him an annoyed look and looked away "Shut up" He said. Youhei laughed and put his hand on Ryouta's shoulder "You don't have to hide it. It's clear to me and Tomoya that you like Kyou that whole best friend thing is nothing but a cover up" Youhei said. Ryouta looked at him "Stop right there! It's not like that Sunohara I just care about here that's all" He replied in a unsure tone. Youhei smiled and shrugged "Okay whatever you say Ryouta but I know how you really feel" He replied. Ryouta sighed and looked out the window tying to clear his head.

Later that day school had ended and everyone had left pretty quickly. Kotomi and Kazuyoshi were having a peaceful conversation at the school library.

"Wouldn't you agree Kazu-chan?" Kotome asked as she sat with her arms crossed on the desk comfortably, her focus on the old yet well preserved tome; written in old English which at that moment Kazuyoshi was glancing through with intrigue.

"Well it is an elaborate piece Kotomi-chan, as well as a reputed one. Alighieri was always renowned for writing in riddles and dilemmas as we see through the character Dante's experiences, his thoughts and questions." Kazuyoshi responded as he closed the book and handed it back over to the blue haired girl curiously. "Doesn't surprise me though that you'd find something we'd both appreciate either; me for history and you for language" At that a growl could be heard coming from his stomach, Kazuyoshi looked down before looking up with a face of guilt "...The beast is calling." he followed with a chuckle as Kotome stood up and tilted her head.

"Care to join me for dinner tonight? Kazu-chan?" she asked gently before slipping the edition of The Divine Comedy in her bag, slipping her shoes on and headed toward the library exit. Kazuyoshi simply shrugged and followed "Only if you'll have me." he replied humbly. the brunette nodded happily as they left the school library.

Kazuyoshi contemplated partially as they walked to Kotome's house at how he and her would spend time just mulling over tomes of intrigue. In the two months he had known her, he learned that she was an enthusiast of the violin; although she could do with much work at practice, she adored reading of different languages and anything that challenged the mind. When it came to her parents however she would avoid the subject as if it were some form of forbidden art, he played along every time; not wanting to pressure her and perhaps in time she would open up.

He also mulled over the events of the first time he brought her home to meet his family...much to his joy, everyone took kind to her...to his despair it lead to his embarrassment...

-Flashback, three weeks ago-

"Dad I'm home with a guest!" Kazuyoshi declared, looking toward the car parked in the garage as he walked through the front gate with Kotomi behind him. Moments later the head of Kazuyoshi's dad poked from underneath the hood.

"My Kazu...home with a girl?!" Kazuyoshi's dad's voice brimmed with relief and excitement as he looked up at the sky "THANK YOU GOD!" He cheered before pulling himself from underneath the car completely and stood up; his overalls, covered in oil. "It's about time you showed some interest son, i was starting to get worried about ya..." Kazuyoshi's dad beamed as he nodded approvingly and looked at Kotome with a slight bow.

"Pleasure to meet ya, I'm Hiraga Yoshiro; Kazu's dad if you couldn't tell. And you must be my son's first girlfriend..."

"Dad! She's just a very good friend!" Kazuyoshi blared as he noticed Kotome's face flush a deep red as she bowed politely.

"H-Hiraga-san...I'm Ichiose Kotomi...pleasure to meet you..." the brunette managed to speak.

"Just call me Dad!" Yoshiro replied playfully "After all there's a good chance you could be my daughter in law someday!" Yoshiro suddenly lunged and grabbed Kazuyoshi in a headlock and playfully scrubbed his knuckles against his son's forehead as he tried his hardest to free himself. "I tell you son, I'm proud! Not only is this young lady a cutie, she's also really nice!"

"Daaaaad, get off! You're gonna get my uniform all oiled up...and she's just a good friend!" Kazu struggled futily. Kazu's build you could tell didn't come from his father; his father was almost twice as broad and built, despite being in his late forties, his strength hadn't faltered; Kazu could tell you that from experience.

"Really?! Just a friend?! D'aww boy!" Yoshiro sighed as he let his son go. "I just dont understand you, yer brother Hito had girls throwing emselves at him at your age and he still hasnt lost his touch!"

"Dad, Hito goes through girlfriends as quick as you do cloths." Kazu commented as he rubbed his head, sore from the scrubbing. "Anyways we're gonna go up to my room now"

"Yeah yeah, you do that..." Yoshiro chuckled before heading back to the car and picked up a torque wrench as Kazuyoshi and Kotomi headed toward the front door.

"Hey Kazu!" Kazuyoshi peered back over his shoulder at his dad's voice the moment Kotomi was inside the house. "Nice act there lad, get her comfortable first; safety's are in the bathroom cabinet... of course if you're gonna settle down early..." Yoshiro finished as he gave a very sly smile and a thumbs up to his youngest son; now very flushed from embarrassment.

"DAD!"

"You'll have to excuse my dad...he and my brother...are veeery..." Kazuyoshi tried explaining to a very red faced Kotomi who quickly shook her head and chuckled.

"Open? Honest? I can see that..." Kotomi began as they headed up stairs, as they passed a door they could hear a restrained moaning and rocking. "...And hear it?"

Kazuyoshi face palmed at the realization. "Hito...he's back from collage...and he's brought his latest girlfriend with him."

"Hito...he was the captain of our school's rugby team back when we just started right?" The brunette commented as they quickly headed into Kazu's room and closed the door.

"Oh yeah." Kazuyoshi replied "I swear i never heard the end of it when he finally made Captain. I'll go and get us something to drink, just hang around here for a while." Kazuyoshi left the room, headed downstairs for some juice and glasses and just as he passed his brothers room, the door opened and a pair of muscular arms wrapped around his neck with a squeeze.

"EY Kazzie! Glad to see yer bro?" Hito laughed as he amped up the pressure on his younger brother's neck. Hito was an exact double of Yoshiro, only younger and with a full head of hair, though trimmed short.

"Can't...breathe..." Kazuyoshi choked as he hopped around, his head was facing the inside of Hito's room, and suddenly he closed his eyes as he realized that Hito's girlfriend was waving at him despite being completely naked. As his eyes were closed; the younger brother realised Hito was too. "GET SOME CLOTHES ON MAN!"

"Ahhh so you've met Rumi eh? Cute huh?" Hito jeered playfully as he let go and pushed Kazuyoshi against the wall "Well get yer own bro!" He carried on with a laugh.

"He already HAS his own!" Yoshiro yelled up the stairs as he walked into the house, wiping his oily hands on a cloth "...And get some damn pants on boy, i don't wanna see that!"

"Kazzie...you have a girlfriend?!" Hito looked at his brother with a grin. "Now THIS i gotta see!? She's in yer room?"

"Yeah but..." Kazuyoshi began in vain as his completely naked and sweaty brother rushed for the door to Kazuyoshi's room and opened it.

"Well HELLO there..." Hito greeted teasingly and grinned as Kotomi's jaw dropped and her face turned puce at the site. "Well bro, she IS a hottie...hey c'mooon!" Kazuyoshi somehow found it in himself to push his older brother out of the room and close the door before sliding down with a grimace.

"Could today possibly have gone worse?" Kazuyoshi groaned as he placed the glasses and juice on the table.

"What's that? My sweet little boy has become a man?" The pair could hear Kazuyoshi's mother Reiko question as she passed by the door, having just returned from work. "Kazu-chan? When you're both done, i want to meet my soon to be daughter in law!"

"Shouldn't have asked..." Kazuyoshi sighed as he let his head rest against the table.

-End Of Flash Back-

The two continued to walk to Kotomi's house so she could prepare dinner for the both of them. Kazuyoshi wanted to learn more about Kotomi but knew that it would be awhile before that would happen.

Meanwhile Ryouta was on his way home alone. He kept staring at the ground while he was walking. He had his hands in his pockets and it was clear to see that there was something on his mind. The walk was quiet until he could hear a vehicle sound coming from behind him.

"Ryouta!"

Ryouta turned around to see Kyou coming towards him. She pulled over and looked at him with a smile "Hop on" she said. Ryouta looked at her for a moment before smiling and shaking his head "Nah I think this time I'm going to walk" he said. Kyou was not having it she reached into he bag but was stopped in her tracks when he spoke again "No I'm serious this time Kyou I'm going to walk besides I have some things I need to do" He added. Kyou gave him a suspicious look "You're such a lair" She replied. Ryouta gave her a warm smile "I swear I have something I need to do if I didn't then I would have accepted the offer" He said.

Kyou sighed and nodded letting him have his way this time "Okay, Okay if you have something to do I won't stop you but I'll be picking you up tomorrow. Got it!?" She asked. Ryouta nodded his head as she then began to move forward with her bike. She stopped her bike a few seconds later and looked at him with a worried expression "If there's something on your mind just know that you can talk to me okay?" She asked. Ryouta gave her a warm smile and nodded.

Later that day the sun had begun to set and Tomoyo and Keiji were hard at work at a local park training. Since their last encounter the two have been working together trying to better Keiji's skills in fighting. "Let's call it a day Fukohei" She said as she wiped sweat off her forehead. He looked at her with a calm expression and nodded.

The two sat down on the grass and looked up to the sky watching the sun set. "Fukohei tell me something; what made you decide to join my school after our little incident a few days ago?" She asked. Keiji didn't say a word he kept looking to the sky as if she hadn't said anything.

"I mean when you came to me the day after our fight I thought you was coming for revenge but when you said you wanted to try school again and leave the gang life behind you it was to much to believe but you came and kept your word" She explained. Keiji sighed knowing she was going to keep pushing until he said something "I was known as the toughest guy around. The Skull Night gang brought me a lot of fame but not in a good way. I thought I could take on anybody until we met! When I lost to you it made me realize that you don't need to be in a gang to become strong" He said.

Tomoyo looked at him and thought for a moment. She could see that he was being truthful with his words "Fukohei the lady that came to sign school papers for you was that your mother?" she asked. Keiji shook his head and looked tot he ground "She was my adoptive mother" He responded which left Tomoyo in shock.

"My parents left me! They were people who loved to steal and would easily get away with it. But a child was a burden to them; They felt that if they had me around I would slow them down and eventually get them caught. They left me when I was 5 years old." He explained.

The wind blew through their hair as she gave him a look of sympathy she felt bad for him. "That lady was my moms friend. My mom had asked her to take me in and she excepted my real last name was suppose to be Mikasa but because my parents gave my adoptive mom all rights to me my last name was changed too Fukohei. So in technicality that women is my real mom" He explained.

Tomoyo looked at him and put a hand on his shoulder "She seems like a very nice lady there's no reason why you should be in a gang I'm pretty sure it hurts her knowing you was in one. I want to help you make your life better but that's only if you want it to get better" She said. Keiji looked at her with passion in his eyes letting her know he was serious "I do but it's going to be different I mean I left my home to stay with my gang. Leaving them and going back home will be a change for sure" He responded.

She gave him a confident look "It'll be a good change I'll be by your side to help you. I promise" She said. Keiji looked into her eyes for a moment realizing that she was being serious she really wanted to help him and he felt that it would be wrong to let her down.

"Good job boss you got her right where you want her!"

Keiji and looked to see Tomoyo turned to see the Skull Night Gang coming towards them. A guy in black pants and black shirt stopped forward. He had red eyes with red hair. "Rai what's the meaning of this?" Keiji asked.

Tomoyo stood up preparing herself but Keiji stood up and put his hand out signaling her to stop and relax. "Your not serious about leaving boss. We assumed that you were just waiting to get her alone so we could take her out" Rai said.

Keiji shook her head "I am serious! My days of being a gang leader is over Rai you guys are going to have to get over it and move on" Keiji replied. The gang members wasn't too happy about his reply and let it be known.

"You can't leave boss"

We need you!"

"It's all that girls fault!"

Keiji shook his head "No it's not her fault if anything it's best for me" He said. Rai eyes went wide at his statement "You can't be serious boss" He gasped. Keiji gave him a serious look that showed Rai that he wasn't kidding around.

Tomoyo was shocked herself. She couldn't believe that he was really telling his group that it was the end for him. "You guys did so much for me and I'm extremely grateful for that. You guys had my back from the beginning to the end and I thank you. It's hard for me to part ways with you guys but it's time for you guys to leave...I'm sorry" he said as he looked to the ground. It was hard for him to part ways with his friends.

Rai looked to the ground knowing Keiji had made up his mind. Rai turned around and slwoly began to walk away with the gang not saying a word to Keiji. Tomoyo watched as Keiji closed his eyes keeping himself from looking at them. "Goodbye my friends" He whispered to himself.

The group had finally disappeared and Keiji continued to keep his eyes closed "You okay?" She asked. Keiji nodded and looked to the sky "My mother took care of me when my so called real parents abandon me I'm going to do what ever I can to make her happy even if it means leaving the gang I loved" He explained. Tomoyo gave him a small smile. She was happy that he had made the right decision and was glad that he was going to change his life around.

Later that night Tomoya and Nagisa were sitting in her living room as they watched T.V. Tomoya liked staying with her and her family they always seemed to have fun with each other. It was something he wasn't able to enjoy because his mother had passed away and his father was an alcoholic which caused him to move out of his house.

"Tomoya!" Nagisa called out as she turned to look at him. "Yes" he replied. "Kyou wanted me to tell you that she wants everyone to get together tomorrow so we can hang out" she explained. Tomoya sighed "Well it is a Saturday so I guess hanging out wouldn't be a bad idea" He stated.

"Can I come!"

Tomoya and Nagisa turned to seeher father Akio standing in the doorway that led to the kitchen. "No dad sorry. It's just going to be me, Tomoyo and our friends." She said. Akio pouted as Sanae walked into the room "Honey their teenager you don't need to be there besides we have to watch the shop" She said with a warm smile.

Akio just sighed and smiled at his wife "Okay, Okay" he said. Tomoya laughed before looking at Nagisa and smiled. She raised and eyebrow wondering why he suddenly smiled at her "We should get back to working on the Drama club when Monday comes. We've been so busy that we had pushed it aside" He stated.

Nagisa smiled and nodded at his statement "Right" She said. Tomoya and Nagisa looked into each others eyes for a slight moment before looking back to the T.V enjoying the rest of their night. Both were eager to see what would happen tomorrow when they all got together.
