Panda –chan: anywho!!! Here's the next awaited chapter!!!

Yaya:26, Kukai:28

Mondays are my least favourite days of the week but they're only tying with Sundays for being the most annoying!!!

"What if she pees her pants?"

"She has on diapers."

"What if she wants me to be there with her all day?"

"She'll make it through."

"What if she forgets who I am when I pick her up?"

"Unlikely to happen."

"What if -"

"YAYA!"

g r o a n i n g the redhead leaned back against the headboard and crossed her arms over her chest a deep frown set on her features. She was not very happy at the moment and her unreasonable husband was not helping one bit. Tomorrow would be the beginning of their two year old daughters schooling and the upset twenty –six year old couldn't be more appalled at the idea of losing her only child to the school system. Opening her mouth to speak, she was silenced by her husband and reverted back to glaring dangerously at the bed covers. Easing himself down on the bed beside his wife, Kukai spared her one sympathetic glance before fluffing his pillows and getting settled. If the redhead had thought her day was tough that was nothing compared to his.

Waking up at 5 every morning for the last three years was not the most thrilling thing in the world, especially when you spent most of the last two dealing with a whiny toddler and a hysterical wife. Soccer had really began to lost its thrill and was now just a way for the handsome man to get a few hours away from the insanity that was ensued inside of the Souma residence, but tomorrow would change everything. His cute as a teddy bear two year old daughter Ayame was finally starting school and if all went well, she would be attending it without any minor glitches at all.

"You are not interfering with our game plan Yaya…it's time she makes some little friends of her own and gains a little freedom."

Yaya's eyes widened in disbelief at what her husband had just said. Was he trying to make her only daughter learn to love someone other than her? Wasn't he aware of the bond the two of them shared? She was not about to let this overly sports infatuated man ruin what her and her daughter had! "You are aware that she's only two right? She's nowhere close to needing her own space!" As she shouted in his ear, Kukai tried his hardest to drown her out and turning on his side he turned off the bedside lamp. No way were they going to have this stupid discussion, this was obviously getting them both nowhere besides…the school fee for the term was already paid for and the damage was already done. "Can we discuss this tomorrow over breakfast or something? I'm exhausted and I have a press meeting in the morning."

Frowning, Yaya stared at his back and her mind screamed kick his conceited ass! but she didn't. Instead, she slipped down into the bed and kicking the covers aside turned on her own side and glared holes into the wall. "Sure we'll talk if you're still here when I wake up," her tone was one of annoyance and it seemed to strike a pressure point in Kukai. Gears reeling, it all began to make plenty of sense. Yaya wasn't upset about Yame starting school, that was only a part of it, the bigger part had something to do with them and more precisely his job! Of course, Kukai couldn't see how his career had anything to do with this, he had only been supporting this family ever since they had gotten married five years ago…what was this change in attitude all of a sudden?

"Yaya?"

"Yes?!"

He could hear the frustration in her tone and the iciness of it made him inwardly cringe. "This has nothing to do with Ayame starting school tomorrow does it?" He asked turning to face her and instantly Yaya's eyes widened, "what?! Of course it does!" She shouted as she also turned to look at him and their eyes met and her cheeks flushed. Feeling flustered, she resorted to staring at the bed sheets while Kukai scrutinized her closely before releasing a deep breath. "This has nothing to do with me leaving early for work does it?" He asked and there was no immediate cocky response from his spouse and when she mumbled 'shit' under her breath he knew he had hit the jackpot.

"Yaya," he sighed as he sat back up in bed and turned to look at her who was staring up at him with such innocent eyes, lips parted slightly. Running a hand through his messy auburn hair, he released a sigh. What was he supposed to tell her to let her know that it was okay that everything they had worked so hard for was not under any form of threat? "Hey, you know I love you right?" He asked, no more like reminded her and she nodded rather hesitantly as she also sat up and at her reaction Kukai felt a rip at his heart. She wasn't honestly believing that his feelings for her were over was she? Taking a hold of her hands, he stroked them gently in his own as he titled her head so that their eyes met and there it was that same jolt of electricity that had first drawn them to each other all those years ago.

"You mean the world to me and no job…no matter how famous I become can ever change that." He whispered as her eyes grew wide and began to shake dangerously, "but what about the press meetings and practices -" "they mean absolutely nothing to me if they don't make my number one girl happy." He uttered and there it was, the tears began to run freely down Yaya's face making her look as vulnerable as she did so many times before back when they were younger. "Kukai," she cried as she pecked his lips softly and wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed herself against him, her tears wetting his neck. "I didn't know you felt that way…I thought it was always about your job and we came after," she explained looking back at him and instantly he felt guilty as he wiped her tears away before kissing her lips softly.

"You were always first…ever since we were young, you know that. I promised to love you forever and I always will."Smiling amidst her tears, Yaya stared into his eyes as she sniffed lightly. Maybe tomorrow wouldn't be such a disappointing day after all.

Well, that's another chapter…please tell me what you think about it and leave a review if you want me to put Ayame in the next chapter!!! *thanks*
