Wow it's been a while hasn't it. I've been busy with school lately and my computer wasn't working for a while. For anyone wondering Roppi's parents are just ordinary people. Anyway I'm back and I'm not dead so let's get to it. Little bit of shota in this I guess.
Chapter 3
"And that's what happened Roppi" Tsuki said before continuing to lick his ice cream cone "I'm sorry i wasn't able to come here last week"
"That's okay" Roppi said tasting some of his own ice cream "So your mom is going to be having another baby, do you want a brother or sister?"
"Well I already have two little brothers so i guess a sister would be nice but I really don't care" Tsuki took a nice long lick and let out a long sigh of relaxation "This taste really good, is yours good?"
"It's okay" Roppi took a small lick and Tsuki couldn't help but stare at the other boys small pink tongue as it touched the vanilla ice cream. A tiny speck of ice cream stayed on his face.
"You got a little…um…" Tsuki began trying to point at the spot on Roppi's face where the ice cream was "Let me just…" Tsuki took a chance and gently took the melted ice cream off with his finger and, without thinking, put the finger in his mouth tasting the vanilla.
"Thanks" Roppi said simply as the two continued to eat. They were currently sitting under the shade of a tree; Erika wasn't too far behind as was watching them like a hawk. Izaya had offered to take Tsuki to the park this time but Erika insisted she do it. She enjoyed watching the two little boys chat not to mention she had promised not to tell Izaya about what had happened last time and didn't want to make Tsuki feel awkward when he was with Roppi.
They sure are cute together Erika thought as she watched Roppi gently pull a strand of Tsuki's hair. Tsuki blushed as Roppi pulled and hid his face in his scarf. Roppi did not like this and pulled Tsuki's scarf down, Roppi stayed like that for a moment staring at Tsuki's face even though his ice cream was slowly slipping through his grip.
"Be careful" Tsuki said grabbing Roppi's hand making sure he didn't drop his ice cream.
"Thank you-" Roppi say Erika waving to them "I think you have to go"
Tsuki looked over at the older woman and smiled "Yeah see you later" Tsuki stood up "you know you can come over anytime you want"
Tsuki was expecting an immediate no but instead he saw that Roppi was actually considering coming over. Full of hope Tsuki waited in anticipation, Roppi looked up to see Tsuki's big red eyes wide with happiness.
"Maybe" Roppi said with a pout and that seemed to satisfy Tsuki. The blonde left with a big smile on his face.
When he reached Erika she asked the boy why he was so happy. "I think…Roppi is being less tsundere"
A few months later
Izaya was a little bit over half-way through his pregnancy and found out he was having another boy, he and Shizuo agreed to name him Hibaya. Izaya swore to himself that this would be the last child he ever had, after finding out he was pregnant he didn't let Shizuo touch him at all for over a week. Tired and not wanting to deal with the drama of the outside world Izaya decided he was on maternity leave. This was fine with the children seeing they got to spend time with him, the twins especially loved touching their mama's stomach.
Tsuki took this as his chance to get Roppi and make him come over seeing that the little raven had yet to come over to visit. He begged Izaya to take him to the park in hopes he would find Roppi there. Izaya agreed to do so and they all went, as the twins played happily Tsuki searched tirelessly for his younger friend.
"What are you doing?" Tsuki heard a familiar voice say as he looked through a bush. Tsuki turned around and saw Roppi staring at him. Without thinking Tsuki tackled the younger raven. "Get off! You're too close!" Roppi said trying to push the blonde off of him.
Tsuki did as he was told and suddenly grabbed Roppi's hand and pulled him toward where Izaya and his brothers were.
"Where are you taking me?" Roppi said confused as he saw that the woman that had been with Tsuki was not here.
"I want to take you to my house" Tsuki said with a shy smile.
Roppi blushed slightly as they got closer to Izaya.
"Is this your friend Tsuki?" Izaya said remembering the picture Erika had sent him over five months ago.
Sakuraya and Psyche approached Roppi and looked up at him in awe. Tsuki looked at them; it was a little odd that Roppi seemed more like their brother than he did.
"Can Roppi come home with us?" Tsuki asked hiding his face in his scarf slightly.
Izaya looked at the scene in front of him, Tsuki tightly held onto Roppi's hand not wanting to let him go "Only if Roppi's parents are okay with it"
Tsuki turned to look at Roppi and he gave the blonde a small nod. Tsuki's eyes lit up and he had the biggest smile Izaya had ever seen on his face.
"Well alright then" Izaya said and took all the children home. He noticed whenever he tried to ask Roppi about his parents Tsuki would jump in and either give a quick answer or change the subject. He also noticed that Roppi stared at his stomach quite often as if wondering if there really was a baby in there.
The second they got home Tsuki pulled Roppi up to his room, Sakuraya and Psyche tried to fallow them but Izaya told them Tsuki probably wanted to be alone.
"I drew this yesterday" Tsuki said showing Roppi a picture he made of some flowers yesterday.
"It's very pretty, you're like an adult" Roppi said as he took the notebook out of Tsuki's hands.
"I'm no adult" Tsuki said with a slight blush "I'm not even a decade old"
"Decade? Is that like…ten years?"
"Yes you're really smart for someone who's only six" Tsuki said taking the chance to pet Roppi's head "You're so small"
"No! You're just tall!" Roppi said as he noticed all the books around Tsuki's room.
"Well I do drink a lot of milk, so does my dad. He's pretty tall too now that I think about it" Tsuki saw that Roppi wasn't listening and was just looking around this room.
Tsuki took the notebook out of Roppi's hands, the raven didn't even notice, the blonde walked over to his small book shelf and took out one of the books he had.
"My aunt Mairu got me this book when I learned how to read, it's basically a science type book that talks about people"
"I don't think I'd like that book"
"Well I liked it" he but away that book and took out another "Erika got me this one; it's about people fighting these giants. She also got me another book this one time but my mama took it away because he said it was inappropriate or something like that. It was an adult book I think; I don't know I only saw the first page" Tsuki put the book away.
He grabbed some crayons, color pencils, and markers he had and some blank papers. "Wanna draw with me?"
"Okay" Roppi said helping Tsuki lay everything out.
The two drew for a moment; Roppi decided to be friendly and tried his best to draw him and Tsuki together. Roppi didn't draw very often; he usually did his homework and would then go outside and walk around the city. When he finished he saw his picture, he didn't think it was too bad. He turned to see Tsuki's who seemed to be trying to draw a rose, and doing a pretty good job.
"You done?" Tsuki asked, just when he was about to took Roppi covered it up "C'mon I wanna see"
"No, it's not as good as yours" Roppi said taking the paper and holding it close to his chest.
Tsuki grabbed the red marker and colored the edges of the petal. When he was done he picked up the paper and held it up motioning the paper to Roppi. "Here, I drew this for you"
Roppi blushed and reluctantly grabbed the picture and gave Tsuki his. The blonde looked at the picture and smiled "I think it's really nice, can I keep it?"
"Y-Yeah"
Tsuki looked at the picture and back at Roppi, he looked so cute sitting there. He tugged on Roppi's jacket to get his attention.
"What?"
"Can…w-we…um…k-kiss"
"W-What!?" Tsuki blushed and dropped the picture in shock. He grabbed onto his jacket and buried himself in it before speaking again "Well…um…w-why would you want to?"
"I haven't seen you in a while I just figured it be something nice to do" Tsuki said as he put a hand on his scarf. He slowly took it off and put it around Roppi's thin neck sloppily.
Roppi was surprised by how warm and soft it was, so much so he let go of his jacket and, seeing that he usually never zipped it up, it fell off his thin frame.
"I don't let people touch it but since we're friends...i think it's okay if it's you"
Roppi's face became completely red and without thinking he looked at Tsuki and said "fine but make it quick"
Tsuki smiled in excitement as Roppi leaned in slightly. "Okay" Tsuki said determined as he leaned in, their lips touched slightly for a second and they pulled away.
"You really are like an adult" Roppi then did what Tsuki usually did when he was shy; he hid his face with the scarf. The scarf was so close to his face that he could smell Tsuki's scent on the piece of cloth.
"I told you, I'm no adult" Tsuki said as he reached out to hold Roppi's hand when he heard a small click but he didn't care.
Tsuki wondered when he would be able to kiss like an adult.
Izaya backed away from his son's room. What had he just seen? He simply wanted to go check on Tsuki and saw him kissing his friend. Where did Tsuki learn that? Who started it? Was this Tsuki's first love and did Roppi like him back?
As more thoughts went through his mind he felt Hibaya kick "Believe me I was just as surprised as you" Izaya wanted to look inside the room once more to see what had happened but he didn't dare. He'd have to talk about this with Shizuo. Tsuki was too young for the talk wasn't he?
Izaya realized that the semi-calm life he had with his little Tsuki was beginning to change. If he freaked out this much when his first child kissed someone how would he survive Tsuki's teenage years?
Izaya was definitely going to talk to Shizuo about this…and maybe Erika too.
Sorry this chapter is so short and once again sorry for the wait. Time truly is my enemy. I'll try to update soon. Sorry for any mistakes.
