Chapter 4 - Mine
"SHIT! I think I'm in love with Wolfram!" Yuuri shouted.
Needless to say, Shori was shocked. 'When did this happen?' He wondered.
"Shori," Yuuri turned to his brother. "What am I gonna do? I think I love Wolf!" It all began to make sense to Yuuri; the anger, the jealousy, the impure thoughts.
"Yuu-chan calm down. It's going to be ok. You two are already engaged right? And I know that he loves you, so what's the problem?" Shori attempted to console his upset little brother.
"We are both guys Shori! I'm not gay!" Yuuri yelled.
"Don't worry about terms like gay, if you really do love Wolfram, don't try to label it," Shori calmly stated. Normally he would be over protective of his little brother and hate the fact that someone might want to lay their hands on him. However, Shori knew that no one could ever love his Yuu-chan more than Wolfram. He was the one person that Shori knew would never betray Yuuri, never hurt him, and never stop protecting him. Deep down Shori knew that the two boys really did belong with each other, even if it took Yuuri a while to come to that conclusion on his own.
"But I like girls, they are cute and -"
Shori cut Yuuri off, "who says that you can't find guys and girls attractive? There are people that don't actually prefer one specific gender," Shori stated.
"Great so that would make me bi?" Yuuri asked.
"In your kingdom, these words don't really exist, do they? So why are you so determined to place a label on it? You are what you are and it's fine," Shori pleaded. "I already told you, you can't help you fall in love with."
Yuuri began to blush. This sudden realization was hard to process. 'I have been having tons of crazy erotic thoughts and dreams about Wolf, I can't stand the thought of him with someone else, and above all I care for him deeply. Maybe it doesn't matter that he is a guy, he's prettier than any girl. Why did it take me this long to understand? If Murata hadn't-' Yuuri's thoughts came to a screeching halt. "That damn Sage of mine! He tricked me!" Yuuri roared.
"Ok, now I'm really lost," Shori groaned.
Deciding that he needed his brothers council, more than his pride, Yuuri resigned himself to fill Shori in on everything. He took a deep breath and began to explain all of the events of the past few days, every embarrassing detail. Shori sat there, stunned, but dutifully listened to his precious little brothers troubles. When Yuuri was done, he laid his head down on the table, in defeat and shame.
"Wow Yuu-chan, I think that you at the very least are attracted to Wolfram, if not in love with him," Shori concluded. "What do you want to do now?"
"I don't know!" Yuuri whined, while placing his hands on top of his head. "This is all so new to me, but I don't want anyone else to have him. I know that's selfish, but he is mine after all. I think I finally know what I want." He lifted his head, determination shone brightly in his eyes, "I want Wolf to be mine, always."
"I'm happy for you Yuu-chan, it seems that you have reached a decision."
"Yup," the young King stood up straight and smiled at his brother. "Thank you Shori, I'm so happy that you are my Onii-chan. Can I ask you for one more favor before I head to school?"
"Anything Yuu-chan," Shori said with tears of love in his eyes for his brother.
"Can I borrow your credit card? I need to buy something for Wolf."
After school Yuuri set out on his mission to acquire a special present for Wolfram. Shori had given him his corporate credit card from Bob, saying that as long as he kept it under 500,000 yen it would be fine. 'That should be more than enough,' Yuuri thought as he got on a train headed downtown. Yuuri wasn't someone who enjoyed shopping, but he thought Ginza would have what he wanted. He found the least fancy jewelry shop around and cautiously went inside.
"Welcome, what can I help you with today?" The elderly man behind the counter greeted him.
Nervous and sweating bullets, Yuuri approached the counter. "Umm I need a ring," Yuuri stammered.
"Excellent, what type of ring?" The clerk inquired.
"A band one, nothing with stones, for a guy," Yuuri mumbled.
"A wedding band sir?" The clerk asked raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah," Yuuri said blushing.
"Do you have any preferences, such as what metal or designs you want?" The clerk motioned for Yuuri to follow him to another counter containing wedding bands.
"Umm the guy it's for uses his hands a lot with swordplay, so something comfortable and strong would be good," Yuuri said while keeping his eyes on the rings in front of him and not on the clerk. 'This is so embarrassing!' Yuuri screamed mentally.
"These titanium rings are very popular for being lightweight, strong, and comfortable," the clerk said while point to a set of rings within the case.
Yuuri peered into the case at the rings the man had pointed out. They were all shiny and fancy looking. He then saw in the back corner of the case a few darker bands. One stood out above the rest, and Yuuri knew instantly that this was the one. "Can I see that one back there in the corner on the bottom?" Yuuri asked while pointing at the ring.
"Certainly!" The clerk reached into the case and picked up the ring in question, a black brushed titanium band with a light gray flame design on it. "This one sir?"
"Yes, that one," Yuuri took the offered ring and was sure that it would be perfect for his fiery blonde. "I'll take it!" Yuuri exclaimed and handed the clerk his credit card.
After explaining to the clerk that the size would be the same as his finger, the clerk rang up the purchase. A few minutes later Yuuri emerged from the jewelry store with his purchase in hand. 'I'm done being a wimp Wolf, you are mine, and I will make sure that you stay that way!' Yuuri declared mentally.
After his shopping trip, Yuuri committed himself to study. He painstakingly went over all of his notes and textbooks for the rest of the day, and well into the evening. He refused to stop in order to eat dinner, so Mama brought him numerous snacks. Finally when he could no longer keep his eyes open, he crawled into his bed for a few hours of sleep. The young King dreamed of romantic picnics, horseback rides through the countryside, and amusement park dates with Wolfram. He awoke rested and ready to take the finals that lay before him.
Yuuri found the whole family sitting around the table for breakfast, waiting for him. 'Good, I need to tell them something important anyways,' he thought. He knew that this day had been coming for a while now, but he still found himself nervous.
"I'm glad that you are all here this morning, I have something important that I need to tell you guys," Yuuri firmly stated.
"What's wrong Yuu-chan?" The three Shibuyas said simultaneously.
"Nothing is wrong," Yuuri said with a warm and comforting smile. "I have decided that once I graduate from high school, I will not be going to university. I am going to devote my life to Shin Makoku from now on, but I will come back to visit, I promise."
"If that is what you want to do son, then your mother and I support you," Shouma stated.
"Mama is so proud of you Yuu-chan!" Mama Miko squealed.
"Me too Yuu-chan," Shori said with a knowing smile.
"Shin Makoku is my kingdom and I need to stop trying to live in two worlds. Also, I have decided to ask Wolf to marry me for real this time. I need to stop running away from my feeling for him too," Yuuri said shyly.
"You have to invite us to the wedding!" Mama Miko screamed, fan girl style.
"Congratulations," the Shibuya men said in unison.
"Thanks, I just hope that I'm not too late. I did make him wait for five years, he may not love me anymore," Yuuri added sadly.
"Don't worry Yuu-chan, Mama knows these things, he will never stop loving you!" Mama Miko proclaimed. "Just be honest with him, and everything will be fine."
"Thanks everyone, I have to go and take my finals!" Yuuri yelled and ran out the door. The yell of 'ganbatte!' could be heard emanating from the Shibuya household as Yuuri raced to school on his bike.
After the finals were completed, Yuuri looked for his dark haired sage. He spotted him in a bit of trouble with some local hoodlums. 'Yare yare,' Yuuri thought, rolling his eyes.
"Oi, what kind of crime are you committing over there?" Yuuri shouted while approaching the possible mugging taking place.
Startled the hoodlums turned around and glared daggers at Yuuri. "This don't concern you Shibuya Yuuri Harujuku Furi!" The ringleader yelled.
Yuuri smirked and felt his power growing. 'It's time to teach these punks some Maou justice,' he decided. "Leave him alone or else!"
Letting go of Murata's collar, the ringleader began to laugh. "What the hell? Are you threatin us?" He barked.
Yuuri noticed that no one else was around their small group. "Yeah I am! Last warning!" He growled as his eyes took on a cat like appearance, his hair began to lengthen, and a light blue aura surrounded him. "Beat it!"
Stunned beyond belief the hoodlums didn't know what they were seeing. The two lackeys took off screaming. The ringleader stood his ground, pointing his finger at Yuuri, "Demon!"
"Yes I am," the Maou's deep voice said with evil laughter.
The ringleader fainted and fell to ground, flat on his face. Murata chuckled and walked over to his King. "Well done, now chill Shibuya before someone else sees." he said while placing his hand on the Maou's shoulder.
Immediately Yuuri returned to normal and smiled at his friend. "What? I have wanted to do that to them forever," he admitted with a grin.
"So are we headed back to Shin Makoku now that the finals are done?" Murata asked.
"Yeah, and Murata, I decided to stay there. Are you really willing to give up a life here on Earth and live in Shin Makoku?" Yuuri questioned. He didn't want to loose his friend, even if he was angry at him. Dense as he was, Yuuri had put together what Murata had done for him. He determined that the wise sage was trying to make him jealous and in doing so, admit how he felt about Wolfram. It had worked of course, but he wanted to talk to his fiery blonde first. That and he didn't want to let the damn sage gloat.
"I meant what I said Shibuya, I will stay by your side," Murata once more proclaimed.
"Thanks," Yuuri smiled at his sage. They began to walk down the road, when suddenly Yuuri turned around and glared. "Oh and one more thing, Wolfram is mine!" Yuuri growled.
"Yes, Maou Heika," Murata grinned and bowed his head slightly. Murata could faintly hear Shinou laughing in his mind. 'Oh shut up!'
Translation Notes:
Yare Yare = no direct translation for English, means oh brother or oh boy, here we go again, generally said in exasperation
Author Notes: First, sorry it took me so long to update. Second, I want to apologize, this chapter was super hard to write. There were a lot of feels and dialogue and I wanted to complete their time on Earth and get them back to Shin Makoku. I have way more planned, and this is all leading up to it still. I have my reasons. Please hang in there, the true plot will start in the next chapter!
As always thank you for your R&R, favs, and follows! *bows* ^.~
