Chapter 6: Fuckin' Brats

Lion decided to enter Buranchi's room to wake him up, but then found his Bura-chan sleeping naked in the arms of the man he met yesterday. The kid tried to suck it up but the tears pooled up, and he cried out, "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

Buranchi fell out of the bed while Zebra who heard the brat just opened his eyes glaring at him. He pointed accusingly at the scarred man. "YOU FUCKIN' BASTARD! I INVITED YOU HERE FOR LUNCH N' YA SWOOP IN N' STOLE MY BITCH!" He ran out of the room crying.

"WHO ARE YA CALLIN' YUR BITCH?!" Buranchi shouted at him and then grumbled that it was too early for this shit. He went to his closet to pick out his clothes before going to his own bathroom to take care of his business. He made sure to lock it so the man didn't follow him in since he really wasn't in the mood after all the rounds they went til dawn that he walked funny.

Zebra got up from the bed and just put on his pair of pants. He opened a window to let out the smell of sex. He then walked out of the room and heard the kid still crying in his own room. "Stupid faggots. I tried so hard to impress him but he doesn't care. Stupid, stupid, stupid." The child mumbled to himself as he sniffed.

Zebra walked around the house that was connected to the restaurant that kept to the Asian cultural theme. "DHARMA!" Lady Karma screeched out but encountered the red head instead. "Good morning Mr. Bishokuya! Were you just leaving?" She asked kindly which the man knew was a cover up for who woman she really is.

"Yeah." He responded.

"Then please come by anytime! And I must say that you'd make a great father. I can't wait to meet Aiko and your child!"

"You'll have to wait a bit longer. We're not havin' any children yet."

"Not yet. Like not now?" She blinked twice.

"Yeah."

"Oh, then don't mind me! Goodbye!" The woman sauntered away holding her sweet disguise. Zebra found it odd but nothing to think thoroughly about.

Daruma then appeared fully dressed. "Good morning sir. Are you ready to leave?"

"Yeah, just let me get fully dressed. You got here earlier than expected." The man stated as he was going back to the room. The red tie man followed him and answered, "I stayed at Elg's place nearby. Sir, you have important work to attend to."

"I know." The boss put his clothes back on.

Buranchi came back out fully dressed. "Hm? You're already leaving."

"Yeah, I got business."

"Alright then, don't let th' door hit ya on yur way out." The chef was about to leave but the business man grabbed his arm. "Hey, what kind of good bye is that?" The man didn't pout but he did sound a bit let down after what they did last night.

Buranchi arched an eyebrow at him, "What did ya expect?"

"I expected a little..."

The male wrapped his arms around his neck. "A little what?" He questioned before putting on a grin.

Zebra grinned as well. "Ya cocky bastard." He went in for a kiss but he met the cheek. "Stop playin' around." he growled but the male dodged his kisses.

"Ya can't kiss me until ya say those three words." Buranchi teased. "I'll give you a hint. It's not 'I'll fuck you'."

"I'lll kill you if ya don't stay still." The man held the chef's cheeks to have their lips touched and then forced opened by his tongue. Buranchi fought back with his tongue to return the vile thing back from where it came but had the opposite and desirable effect.

Daruma cleared his throat and whispered for his boss's hell ears, "There's suspicions that a mafia is rising against you because they thought you are the easiest target."

Hearing that Zebra pulled away from the kiss. "I need ta go murder some cocky bastards. Call me?"

"We'll see." Buranchi left the room making the red head feel like grabbing him and pounding him into the mattress to learn his place.

Daruma chuckled. Zebra questioned him, "What're ya laughin' about?" The secretary returned a serious expression, "Nothing sir. I just hope you keep those loving eyes away from work."

Zebra squinted his eyes in annoyance, and pushed his secretary aside. "Shut up."

In the end, Buranchi didn't call that night. Zebra ended up having to call him to come to the club after he was done with business. As the days passed, meeting up was difficult because Buranchi worked during the day and Zebra worked during the night. Zebra would stay asleep until the afternoon, while Buranchi would get up early. Duty came first before each other and they accepted that, and accepted that they had needs.

Maybe their lives were so compatible afterall, but they made it work in order to see each other nearly every day by checking on their schedules and making their day offs similar.

More people became very aware that their relationship was serious that it got people mad that they voiced their complaint but the original bosses took care of it with some threats and bribery. Some people acted out on this which would've naturally caused a rebellious war, yet some people actually had common sense to see the advantage of having the Tengu and Bishokuya have an affair while the Bishokuya and Bishokukai had a formal agreement. As long as the money was piling up, then all was well.

After nearly a month, the two were in one of the club's private rooms. The man was on the chair while the blonde on top of him was stripping himself in one smooth move revealing a nice caramel body that needed to be melted and swallowed.

Before that, Zebra told Buranchi that he had to leave on a business trip to Italy. "It's only fer a few weeks. Now that I'm married ta the Bishokukai, I also have ta take care of their hotel chain business."

The blonde grimaced. "A mixture of drugs and prostitution. What're ya gonna do? Test out the prostitutes?"

The Bishokuya inheritor grasped the man's ass squeezing them hard making the male bite his bottom lip. "What if I do?"

"Then I guess I should, too. Get a male prostitute and ride him hard." Buranchi began taking the man's shirt off to get a look at the scarred dusty tan body. He licked his lips before having a taste of the man's throat. His sharp teeth lightly grazing against the skin.

"Yur thinkin' about settling fer small dicks."

"Yur not the only big dick in this city."

"Yeah, because the rest didn't use steroids to get theirs." The man chuckled at his own joke yet it was cut short when the blonde took grasp of his dick and wet the shaft with the stroke of his tongue.

"And all those bitches didn't have a job done with loose vaginas. Good luck looking for one that can take your dick down her throat." He proved his point by taking the man's dick in his mouth and deep throated him. The man appreciated this with a hand behind the male's head to keep him there for a bit longer as he thrusted and relished in it until the male needed to breathe.

"Maybe ya got a point."

"Ya know I'm fuckin' right n' if I hear ya fuckin' cheatin' on me, I'm gonna fuck ya up the wrong way. I'm serious!"

Zebra responded with a kiss. "Don't worry. I'm not gonna cheat on ya."

Buranchi doubted him at first but he figured he can't stop the man. So he just had to wait and see what happens.

After that night, Zebra left to catch a plane. Buranchi made sure to remind him not to cheat on him before falling back to sleep.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

In Italy, Zebra was attending a party in one of the Bishokukai hotels for a reason he couldn't remember. He hated having to act refine with a bunch of cocky bastards and bitches all around gossiping about him. Lucky for him, Aiko was with him to do all the talking and excuse him for not being the chatty type or he had a bug or something.

Once all the chatting began to stammer down, he went to the bar to order a bottle of wine to chug down. A willowy woman sat down next to him dressed in a fierce sexy red long v-neck dress. Just pull down the fabric from her shoulders and her round luscious breasts would be ready to be touched.

"Are you alone mister?" She asked with her Italian accent.

Zebra knew this one was one of the prostitutes. "Right now I am."

The woman whipped her hair back acting nonchalant as she placed a hand on his arm. "Is that so? Tell me about yourself mister."

"Don't feel like it."

"Why not?" She stood up to get closer to him. Faking a face of sincerity. "Are you sad mister?"

"No. Just pissed."

"Hm. Do you want to feel better?" She asked while having her breasts brush against his arm. "Because I know a thing or two about making a man feel better." She whispered in his ear seductively.

"Sorry, but I'm not biting tonight. Not you at least." Zebra stood up and left her.

Daruma who was watching was on the phone with Elg. "He didn't take the bait."

"Obviously. You could've went for a woman more honest and daring."

"Sir doesn't care about personality."

"My choice would've been more stubborn to get him into bed."

"And then ended up in fear for her life once my boss threatens her to stop. I've seen him do that when he isn't in the mood."

"I guess you're right. Now about you."

"I don't sleep with prostitutes for the fear of STDS and unwanted pregnancy."

"You are too straight-forward."

"And you are too sarcastic."

Zebra went back to his room thankfully separated from Aiko. He had guards even though he probably didn't need them. He turned on his laptop on his bed to see Buranchi's room.

Daruma told him all about the cameras and the porn videos which the boss took to his full advantage by using the camera in Buranchi's room to watch him at night. The chef still had no idea about them which made it more sweet when Zebra caught his boyfriend on his bed touching himself out in the open having his pants at his ankles and shirt raised to rub his nipples.

There was audio so Zebra could hear Buranchi's panting and cursing of his name. The red head reached for his own dick in his own pants to rub himself at the same pace while squeezing rhythmically and then applied pressure at the tip of his penis.

But then it was stopped short by a knock on the door. "I'M BUSY HERE!" Buranchi yelled.

"Buranchi! I need ta talk to you!" Lion called out from the opposite side of the door.

"CAN WE TALK LATER?!"

"I need ta talk to ya now!" Lion cried out.

Buranchi growled, "JUS' WAIT A MINUTE!" He got off from the bed putting his clothes back on properly. The chef thought about something incredibly wrong that got him limp. Zebra wanted to throw the kid into a shark pool for interrupting his show. "WHATDYA WANT?!" The blonde questioned after opening the door.

Lion was in his pajamas holding his godzilla stuff animal. "I wanted ta say I was sorry fer what happened the other mornin'."

"Other mornin'?"

"The time I caught ya with that Zebra guy n' called ya a bitch. I'm really sorry." The child looked like he was about to cry again.

Buranchi completely forgot all about that but seeing how the kid started whimpering, he kneeled down putting a hand on the kid's shoulder. "Hey, it was a month ago. Nothin' to cry about. I already forgot about it."

"But I've been ignoring you because I was mad, so I want you to know that I'm not mad anymore because I know that you love him more than me. But I don't want you to start ignoring me back." Tears streamed down. "RIGHT NOW, ALL YOU CARE ABOUT IS WORK AND THAT BASTARD! I WANT TO BE IMPORTANT TO BURA-CHAN TOO!" He let his godzilla stuff animal fall to the floor to hug the man. "I want kisses too! I want to have fun with Bura-chan too! I want Bura-chan to notice me! It hurts when ya don't!" He sobbed on the male's shirt. Snot and tears sliding down.

The chef picked him up patting his back. He didn't think the child was thinking like this. He thought the kid was just being childish, but he really did feel hurt and lonely for a month. It was troublesome but then he couldn't leave the kid sobbing.

"Hey, you are important to me."

"Yur a liar!"

"If ya weren't I wouldn't be holdin' you now would I?"

"That's becuz ya have no choice. Ya'd be a real bastard ta leave a child cryin'."

Buranchi sighed by how the kid's smarts were also troublesome. "Listen kid, I wasn't gonna tell ya this, but ya know that yur birthday's comin' up right?"

Lion's eyes widen. "I almost forgot!"

"Yeah, well I got ya that new toy ya wanted."

"The new Smashers Elliminate 4: Zombie Collide Warzone!" The child leaned back showing that his eyes sparkled despite all the snot.

Buranchi grinned feeling proud for remembering. "Yeah, kid."

"Yea!"

"Now go back to yur room!" Buranchi was about to let go but the child held on, "Wait! Can I sleep with ya?"

"No."

"But I had a nightmare!" Lion looked like he was about to cry again.

Already lost the mood to please himself, Buranchi agreed taking Lion and his stuff godzilla into his bed. Zebra was more disappointed, but he wouldn't love the blonde if he didn't also have this perk for making kids happy.

Lion snuggled onto the bed side of where Zebra would sleep. Smacking the pillow with his godzilla to make it comfy to lie on. Buranchi lied down next to him. The child took his chance at hugging the man for a snuggle. The Bishokuya inheritor really wanted to throw the kid out the window.

"Hey, Bura-chan."

"What?"

"Do ya love him?"

"Who?"

"Do ya love Zebra-san?"

"Go ta sleep kid."

"Come on tell me! I'll stop botherin' you if ya do!" Lion hugged the man tighter.

Buranchi sighed feeling like throwing the kid out the window too. "Yes I love him."

"Why?"

"I thought ya'd-"

"I will! But I gotta know so I can give up!"

Understanding the reason, Buranchi responded, "It jus' happens. I hate the bastard becuz he says he hates cocky bastards but he's a cocky bastard too. He thinks he can get anything he wants like a spoiled brat! He smells like blood, or cigarettes, or perfumes that makes me feel nauseous being next to him sometimes! Like seriously, hasn't he learned to shower after work! But then even if I tell him, it'll backfire on me! He also keeps making me do things even when I'm tired!"

"He doesn't sound like the right guy fer ya. If it was me, I'd do anythin' to please ya."

"Jus' becuz I hate those things about him, doesn't mean I don't love him. I like cookin' fer him, sleepin' next to him, talkin' with him- a lot of stuff. In a way ya jus' know yur in love with someone when ya also can live with the things ya hate about them. If ya can't then maybe it's not meant ta be."

"So when I meet my true love, I'd know its him when he does the things I hate and I can live with it?" Lion tried to decipher the message.

"Changes are good, but if they jus' can't n' ya can't live with it anymore, it's best ta jus' break it off."

"So when Zebra does somethin' ya really don't like, it's over."

"I'm holdin' to that idea until he comes back."

"If he does, I'll be here fer comfort." Lion snuggled with Buranchi lovingly, but then was pushed away.

Zebra glared at the kid but felt a soft spot for him. "Don't get cocky kid." The man closed the laptop and thought that they dated for only over a month. He could screw it up now. Was he even ready for commitment? But then he thought again that he didn't want to lose Buranchi to some other man yet. At some point they'll break up and split ways, or they'll always be together.

He stopped thinking about it and decided to drink himself to sleep.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Coming back, Zebra and Buranchi spent entire day in each other's arms while talking about what they've been doing and plan on doing, and other things for the daily needs. "The brat's birthdays two days from now right?" Zebra asked while they were having lunch.

"Yeah, why?" That was an odd question from the man.

"I cleared that day so we could celebrate it at the amusement park."

"HAH?! Why are you suddenly so interested in celebrating his birthday? Ya barely know him!"

"Thought it'd be best ta know him since he wants ta get close to you."

"What kind of reason is that?" Buranchi's eyebrows lowered by confusion.

"All ya need ta know is that I know that kid loves ya, and I want him to know that..." Zebra realized where his sentence was now leading to, but Buranchi was well aware.

He burst out laughing. "YA PROVE TO A KID! OH MY GAWD! THAT IS COMEDY GOLD! BWUHAHAHAHAHA!"

"Shut up!" Zebra demanded but the blonde was still laughing his ass off. He had vengeance later by using a belt and a color chart before pounding that sore ass with naughty threatening words included.

Two days later, the three of them went to the amusement park. Lion was a bit skeptical at first to go with the red gorilla but then if it meant free rides, cotton candy and possibilities of humiliating him then yes!

They went on so many rides together, took pictures where Lion stood as the husband, Buranchi the woman and Zebra the dog. He was so lucky no one he knew saw him except for Elg and Daruma who kept straight faces thankfully. No other guards were around.

Lion won so many grand prizes with Zebra and Buranchi's help that he began warming up to the big guy after winning him a huge godzilla stuff animal by knocking down all rows of cups perfectly. He also got the hammer slammed down with one hand to break the bell. Anything he threw, slammed or hit, he got it perfectly.

"Ya should've been a baseball player!" Lion told him excitedly.

"Naw kid. I learned that through beating and shooting people."

"Really? I wanna do that too then!" Lion got all excited but Buranchi told him that he couldn't.

"I'm goin' to th' bathroom. The two of ya stay here." The blonde left.

Zebra and Buranchi were finally given that awkward alone time. All the kid's prizes were taken by Daruma and Elg to go back to his room. "I understand now why Bura-chan loves you." Lion started the conversation. "It's because ya love him back the same way."

"What're ya sayin'?"

"I've bet you've been thinkin' a lot about this whole love business, too. I think I finally have an answer. It's cuz ya act like an idiot." He smiled. "And that makes Bura-chan happy." He sighed looking away dramatically as if he was a cool character. "I give up now, but if you two break up, he's mine!" He raspberry the man.

"Who're ya callin' a idiot kid? Don't get cocky with me!" Zebra thought about just scaring the kid but the child just ran off happily from him. "Hey! Come back here!"

Lion kept running until he bumped into someone. "Are you alright kid? You should watch where you're running!" The kid looked up to see a man with blue hair and scars on the left side of his face.

"I hope you're okay." Another man responded but he was shorter with black hair and a monkey like nose. "Zebra-san!"

"Huh? What're you guys doin' here?" Zebra questioned the couple.

"Dad!" A teenager that had long white hair with streaks of blue, and hazel eyes like Toriko ran over to them with a baby carriage and holding the hand of another child following. "Sorry we're late!"

"Terry! Got stuck in traffic huh!" The blue haired male grinned at them.

Buranchi came back running towards them. "I THOUGHT I TOLD YA TA STAY PUT!" He stopped to see chef Komatsu and Zebra's adopted brother Toriko.

Lion stared at the child that Terry was holding hands with to see a plump male with rosy cheeks, short black hair wearing a pink shirt with a dark pink circle, white shorts and yellow shoes. The undeniable cuteness made Lion's heart stop with the world around him. His body still whilst barely breathing, and eyes wide with wonder. He got on one knee taking the child's hand and asked, "WILL YA MARRY ME?!"

Buranchi punched him on the head.

Once everything cooled down, everyone sat at a restaurant nearby. The kids had a separate table with Terry watching them. Lion felt humiliated for the way he acted but Yun thought he was cute.

"So let me get this straight. You are still married to Aiko while you two are having an affair." Komatsu stated unsure of how to feel about this since he believed in the sanctity of marriage yet reasoned that it was a business marriage.

"Yeah, and what the hell are you guys doin' here?" Zebra asked.

"We're moving into the city!" Toriko responded gleefully. "I decided to retire from being a food critic. Komatsu plans on working at the Gourmet restaurant."

"We were unsure at first if this was a proper place to raise our children but then it's also important to be closest to family. Plus Lion and Yun seems to get along well." Komatsu looked at the children who just turned their bananas into dolphins.

"I told ya not ta play with yur food!" Buranchi scolded the kid.

"I'm gonna eat it!" Lion ripped the tail open and gobbled it up with exaggeration.

"Buranchi, you're the main chef of the Tengu castle right?!" Komatsu's eyes gleamed strangely to the blonde.

"Yeah, so?"

"Can I have five of your autographs?!"

"What the hell?!" The two began talking. Buranchi was well aware that this guy was the one Zebra appreciated or was close to being love with and the two were nearly complete opposites. Yet the Tengu chef was fine because Zebra chose him and stated clearly that he couldn't fathom not being with him instead of Komatsu.

Zebra ignored them and then noticed how Toriko kept grinning at him. "What?"

"You seem happier than I remember. It seems like a difficult relationship but then maybe all the clans are gonna unite after all."

"Don't be stupid. It's not that kind of thing."

"Oh? So you really are serious. I never thought I'd see the day when you settle down."

"Shut up ya cocky bastard."

"Don't tell me to shut up!"

"Wanna fight?"

"No, we're at a restaurant. Geeze, you still haven't changed." Toriko and the two began bickering. Daruma and Elg watched the scene.

"It feels really peaceful." Daruma stated while sipping his tea.

"Let's appreciate this. Once our bosses take over, days like these will be rare." Elg sipped his own tea.

After the exhausting day, Buranchi tucked in Lion to bed since he was still the birthday boy. The kid was snuggling the new big godzilla Zebra got him. "You know, I like him."

"Who?"

"The Zebra guy. He's a good but also scary guy. I wanna be like him when I grow up."

"I thought ya wanted to be a chef."

"I can also be a chef. Isn't that what you're doing? Do you really want to handle the drug business?"

"It's not like I have a choice."

"If I was old enough, I'd help take over the drug business so you could always be a chef."

"Even if you were, Lady Karma only allows blood to take over."

"So you have to make a kid?" Lion asked while yawning.

"Yeah, but not right now. Yur already a pain in the ass."

"Best start young to have the energy."

"Shut yer yap n' go ta sleep." Buranchi turned off the lights and closed the door. He returned to his room to find Zebra there who decided to stay the night. They did their usual thing. After a few rounds, Buranchi finally asked him, "Hey, do ya actually want a kid?"

Zebra arched an eyebrow. "Where did that come from?"

"Jus' answer the question."

The male looked away probably thinking back to something, "If I had th' choice, I wouldn't bother havin' any kids."

"But ya have ta get ready for this one." Buranchi reminded the man who just looked at him oddly. As a genius, he knew immediately that the man didn't know. There would be no reason for Aiko to not tell him, unless there was a very good reason behind it.

"What the hell are ya talkin' about now?"

"Nothin'." The man tried to distract the man by engaging in another round but the male grabbed his hands.

The Bishokuya inheritor got on top of the man and growled, "Whatdya mean this one?"

"Nothin'! I said it more to myself!"

"You got someone pregnant?!"

"No! I meant Lion!" Buranchi felt proud of himself for being spontaneous.

"Ya sure?" Zebra held onto his suspicion.

"Yes! Now get off me!" The chef tried to push him off but the male's weight kept him down. The red head wasn't sure if he should ignore this but then he didn't feel like interrogating. Instead he took advantage of the situation.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The next day Buranchi walked into the room where Aiko was said to be in. "AIKO, I NEED TA TALK TA YA!" He stopped to see the woman sitting across his grandmother, Lady Karma.

"Nice for you to join us Buranchi." The grandmother patted her hand on a seat. "We have a lot to discuss."

A/N: Oh my god! Buranchi is 24 years old! Yet I got this from tumblr, but that makes him younger than Komatsu! The never ending irony!

Reviews:

tsukidoragonookami: I hope I satisfied your questions with this fic with events that led to Zebra actually caring about what Lion thinks about him because he doesn't know how to prove his love in other ways to Buranchi. Figured that making a kid that loves Buranchi like him too will making the blonde see a better side of him other than all the illegal business and sex.

Children:

1) Terry is a teenager who witnessed the murder of her mother so she has a strong protective personality. She's a member of the track team, an excellent marksmand and is very picky with her food (Popcorn is her favorite food)

2) Yun is a lot like Komatsu but plump so he's cuter. He witnessed his parents murdered which makes him eager to be useful. His favorite food is soup.

3) Ob is a baby who eats anything in its way and licks you like a dog which is just a phase.
