Here is a bit longer of a chappy! Enjoys~


"Jun."

"Aya, I hope you will forgive me for leaving you." His eyes were full of regret and sadness. "I knew I shouldn't have left you but-"

I cut him off. "Why are you here? I was looking all over for you. Even when I finished my work on the mainland, I would check. Do you know how much I looked for you? Do you know how much I missed you?!" I was starting to break down. I was filled with emotions of relief, happiness and anger that he did not visit me once when he left. I was tearing up and placed my hands on my face. He quickly reacted just like he did, when we were small, when I cried. He swiftly hugged me into his chest, placing a hand on my head and petted me. It calmed me down as I clutched his shirt like a 9 year old again.

"I'm here now aren't I? I missed you too Aya." We were quickly interrupted by a hand on Jun's left shoulder that was gripping tightly. We instantly looked at the person and it was Castiel.

"Hey. You know what I told you right Jun?" He was death glaring at my brother. I immediately got into a defense/attack position that would remain unnoticed until the strike but Jun held me even closer, telling me to remain calm. You can't blame me for going defensive. Both of us were trained to fight after all. But Jun held me flush against his chest and somehow making Castiel even angrier.

Jun removed his right hand from my waist and turned around gripping Castiel's right hand, releasing me from his hug. "Listen, I know what you said. But you should leave her alone. I worry about her."

"What?! You dare tell me what I can't do? What the **** is your relationship?! Lovers?!" He was pissed. I could tell. It was as if he was being threatened or something. More like what he found precious was being threatened to be taken away from him.

Jun sighed. "Calm down will you? I understand what you said but I can't not worry. She is my baby sis after all and I was separated from her for 9 years." He let go of Castiel's hand. Castiel immediately loosened up and his expression turned from hostile to relief? Why would he feel relieved I wondered. I cast that thought aside thinking it was not important.

"Jun, I believe we have some catching up to do. But seeing as now I'm a 'pet'" I took a quick look, glaring at Castiel and saying the word 'pet' with hatred, "I don't think I get much freedom as I used to as a 'stray cat' that roamed around as I liked." As I said that I remembered I had a client that wanted to meet up today originally. Dang. I wonder if they have my bag at the very least. Doubt it though. "By the way, I don't suppose you have my possessions from when you kidnapped me? I have some things I would have liked to use during my stay, if possible."

"Hm?" Armin perked up then looked back to his game. He was playing on the newest model. "I think we took that with us. I tried to check out your computer but man, do you have a good security system. Alexy! Mind passing her bag from under the desk?" He still continued to play as Alexy handed me my bag with a smile. Of course you couldn't get in. I have important information on clients and targets. I personally made up a whole new security system for it. I pouted mentally.

"Thank goodness my stuff did not break. Huh? Did you take my switchblade?" I looked through my bag and the only thing missing was the switchblade. Phone. check. Laptop. check. Headphones. check. Cables. check. Hand-held scanner. check. Earpiece. check. All that was missing really was the switchblade.

"Aw come on sis, do you seriously need a switchblade? Both you and I know you don't even need a weapon to make a person go to the emergency room." Jun joked.

"Jun. You know there are things a fist cannot do in the face of danger. Would you have really felt threatened if I held up a fist at you, an attacker that doesn't know me? Besides, that switchblade was a gift from dad after that happened. You know that." I felt sad whenever I talked about that. I know many others had it rougher than me but I was 8. I was forced to see the world for what it really was. Not the rainbow wonderland where everything gets fixed like it never happened.

Jun felt upset when I mentioned that. Even now, I guess he still felt guilty. "Yeah, I know." He patted me on the head. "Here, I'll get the maid to bring your lunch. Hang tight, okay?"

"Yeah." I still was feeling a bit down but cheered up. "Oh yeah, Castiel, do I need to prepare anything for tonight's party?" I wanted everyone to leave that topic. I mean, the atmosphere went weird.

"Not really, no. Wait. If you are from a lower class you shouldn't know how to dance." Castiel scratched the back of his head in annoyance.

"If its just the waltz and easy ones, I can do that." I said as I got my cellphone to check for any calls or texts.

Castiel raised up an eyebrow. "Really? Okay then, let's practice first before you embarrass me during the party. Come on." I scowled but did as I was told. Lysander went to put on the music as Jun walked in with the maid pushing a cart with our plates of food. "Let's do a quick dance then eat." I was eying that food like a hungry cat with a fish in front of my nose. But it was almost as if he pulled my leash not letting me get even a step close to a full tummy.

We got into position and did a quick bow and danced. We danced as if we were dance partners for a long time, making everyone in the room stand in surprise or awe. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Jun standing there with his jaw open wide. I couldn't help but giggle then went back to concentrate on the dance. When we were done our dance, the maids had our plates set and we sat down to eat while I was bombarded with questions and Jun shaking me from behind the chair.

Jun was very surprised his baby sis could dance without stepping on toes. I could tell. "Since when could you dance like that and NOT step on toes. SINCE WHEN!"

"Let the lady speak Jun. Rather, let her eat. You danced marvelous Aya." I smiled at Lysander.

"Yeah, but she used to stomp on my toes when I tried to teach her how to dance you know!"

I stuck out my tongue at Jun and laughed through the lunch.


so that's that. I hope I can get the party in next cha but we'll see. :D
