Chapter 9

Your just so cute I could die

"Isn't this exciting Miku! I get to stay a full night here and everything!" Mom shrieked waving her Nata in the air.

I sighed. "I'll be happy about it when you put those away. If you keep carrying them around, the police are going to force you into a mental institution and then either me or Mikuo is gonna have to take care of Luna."

Mom let down her Nata. "I know but…Nata …they make me feel safe…I don't want to give them up."

"Then at least put them in cases or something."

"Ok! Whatever makes you happy Miku!" Mom hugged me. I sighed. I hadn't seen Luna or Momo all day. They had been with Rin and Len all day and come to think of it, I haven't seen them either.

Anyways since everyone is spending the night, we decided that the girls get the theater and the guys get the living room.

"So tell me girls." Mom said excitedly. "What's the deal with Kaito and Miku?"

"Mom!" I yelled.

"Totally in love" Meiko answered. Apparently Meiko and Haku are mom's new best friends.

"I believe that's my decision thank you!" I yelled.

"Haven't you said that you love him? You've been dating for three months or something like that." Haku asked.

"Well…I guess…I guess I do." I blushed. Haku whistled. "Oh shut up" I snapped. I crossed my arms. "But I'm not gonna tell him. Kaito just love's to make fun of me so he's gonna have to say it first."

"But Kaito's an idiot!" Lily yelled.

"Which is why it's gonna be a while." I bit my lip. "And I don't mind waiting." I blushed again. "Kaito's worth waiting for."

"Aw" everyone said together.

"She is right though. My son is an idiot" Kaiko said. She had hung out with me all day and she is a lot of fun. Ceoil says and I quote your just so cute I could die!. You're officially my new best friend ever! So Ceoil had set her sleeping bag next to Kaiko but was sitting on my sleeping bag with a smile on her face. "But he's smart enough to know that you're exactly what he needs." Kaiko smiled. "You have my approval." Kaiko gave me a thumbs up. I smiled back.

"I find Kaito to be very sketchy and stupid. He's also to close to my daughter for my likings but then again Miku seems a lot happier then before so I guess he can have my approval as long as he doesn't kiss her in front of me ever." Mom held up her Nata. "If he does, I'll cut his little neck."

"I agree completely" Kaiko said with a smile.

"Mom! Mrs. Kaiko!" I shrieked.

"Kaito and Miku have the best parents ever!" Meiko said with a smile.

"See Miku. I'm not as embarrassing as you think?" mom said with a smile.

"That's because they weren't at my Birthday parties from age 4 – 14" I sighed and rubbed my temples.

"But your 13th birthday wasn't that bad!" Mom pointed out.

"Mom, you set the cake on fire, sliced two tables in half, broke a vase and knocked Mikuo out in which he almost drown in the punch bowl! How was that not terrible?" I yelled.

"Oh yes, I forgot about that part!"

"What? The part about Mikuo almost dying or the cake being set on fire!" I yelled.

"Yes that one!" Mom sang. I groaned and dropped my face into my pillow. Everyone laughed. "It seems I've worn her out as always!" Mom laughed.

"I love you Kiku! You're a riot!" Meiko laughed and slid her arm around mom's shoulders. They laughed together.

"I feel weak" I mumbled into my pillow.

"Lily darling! I found the ice cream!" Menne sang walking into the room.

Lily groaned. "Damn, I thought we were out of ice cream. Iku must have restocked"

"Here you are Lily darling!" Menne handed her a bowl and ice cream.

"So Gumi, how's Gakupo?" Luka asked. She had taken a spot next to her earlier. Now I know why.

"Yes, how is your relationship with that idiot?" Lily asked trying to ignore her sister. Lily should have asked for something harder to find.

"Well…I guess…better. Gakupo's been taking care of me…and changing my bandages." Gumi blushed.

"You let him change your bandages?" Haku yelled.

"More then once too?" Teto yelled. "Even I think that's inappropriate!"

"Well…it's not like he hadn't seen them before already." Gumi blushed bright pink. "I'm not a virgin as of a few months ago. He does care for me. I see that now…when he saw me all beaten up…he was so angry…and he took extreme care of me…more then he's ever done for me."

"You go girl" Ceoil said giving her a thumbs up.

"Since you've lost your V card…" Haku looked at her excitedly. "How as it? Was it good?"

"Haku!" Gumi shrieked with her face red.

"It's a simple question. Beside's, who are we gonna tell. What happens in the theater, stays in the theater."

"Well…how can I tell? It's my first time!" Gumi yelled now extremely embarrassed.

"Boo. Only once. Gakupo's lost his touch." Haku sighed.

"He was…good…" Gumi blushed. Haku whistled again and then everyone laughed.

"I miss my Piko" Miki moaned hugging herself. "I have nothing adorable to hug." She looked at Gumi. "Sit" she order. Gumi sighed and sat down next to Gumi. Miki shrieked happily and hugged Gumi tight. Gumi giggled and then smiled.

"So Haku, what are you and Dell gonna do when you graduate?" Luka asked.

"Well of course Dell and I are going to remain here. I've arranged for my father to let me become an advisor here and Dell's gonna free load off me."

"Dell's an idiot." Lily sighed.

"What about you Lily?" Miki asked as she smoothed Gumi's hair.

"I'm not sure. I guess I'll stay here too. I can become a manager at one of the stores and live here. It's not like anyone wants to move in here anyways." Lily shrugged.

"I'm bored now. Let's go peek on the guys. It's our turn now" Meiko announced. "Let's do it!" mom announced.

"I'm staying here." Miki announced.

"Yeah me too." Lily said.

"I guess I'm not going anywhere" Gumi said then laughed.

"I think I'll remain here. I did promise to braid Luka's hair." Kaiko said with a smile. Luka smiled back.

"I still haven't gotten to know this one" she pointed at Neru who shrieked.

"You don't have to stay here on my behalf!" Neru shrieked.

"Let's go ladies." Mom said. Meiko, Haku, Tei, mom and I slid out of the room and crept down the hall until we were underneath the stair case listening to the guys.

"So that makes my 37th nurse" Ron said proud of himself. Haku rolled her eyes.

"You're a god man" Gakupo said giving him a high five.

"Oh yes I know" Ron said still proud of himself.

"Now that I think about it, Miki must miss me. I'll go join her." Piko said.

"Sit your ass down" Sora ordered. Piko sit back down.

"So Kaito, what have you done with Miku?" Ron asked expectantly.

"After a story like that, I'm not even bothering with you." Kaito sighed.

"Oh come on man. You haven't said anything about you and Miku." Akaito said elbowing him.

"Miku's a little angry with me so being quiet may make her less pissed."

"She's not even here."

"Doesn't matter."

"Come on man!" Ron complained.

"Fine fine." Kaito groaned. "She's still a virgin."

"Boo!" Ron yelled.

"After what her father did, I'm not gonna even try. At least not now. She doesn't trust me enough yet."

"True, Miku is a emotional wreck" Mikuo agreed. "Go ahead and do whatever you want to my sister but I'd give it another month or two. She tends to warm up to people as time goes by."

"I've noticed that." Kaito said.

"So you love her?" Piko asked.

Kaito chuckled. "A lot but sometimes she's just so distant it's hard to tell if she feels the same way."

"She does. You guys have been together for a few months right? She would have dumped your ass by now if she doesn't" Ron said.

"I'm not so sure." Kaito sighed.

"Trust me, I've hung out with the girls more then all of you, she does. Don't worry about it" Piko tapped his chin with his finger. "You should tell her." Piko smiled. "Miku likes to bottle up her feelings. I'm sure she's just waiting for you to say something."

Haku elbowed me. I rolled my eyes. Meiko had to cover Haku's mouth to muffle her laughter.

"Miku's honestly a scaredy cat when it comes to men since mom always chase's them off. Now that mom's gone, she's slowly opening up. It's been a while since I've seen her so happy and she seems twice as happy with you. If that's not an answer to your question, I'm not sure what is." Mikuo crossed his arms. "It's the same with all women." Everyone nodded in agreement.

"So Akaito how's Meiko and you doing?" Shou asked.

"That women is gonna kill me" Akaito answered.

"Damn right I will" Meiko whispered. I elbowed her. She nodded and stopped talking.

"She may abusive and sassy but she's a lot of fun" Akaito continued. "I'd say…things are good."

"You guys have made out at least right?" Ron asked.

"Well duh. That was like the second night here"

"That's my brother." Rin gave him a high five.

"Men are so disgusting" Haku whispered.

"Well now I know how Dell feels when Haku beats him up" Akaito laughed.

"Shut up" Dell mumbled.

"I hear your still gonna be here after you graduate" Piko said.

"Yeah, I'm not going anywhere without Haku and Haku wants to stay here. So I'll stay here too." Dell shrugged. "What can I say, she may be abusive, always drunk, crazy and beyond smarter then I am but despite that, I do love her."

"I knew it" Haku whispered.

"Nice man" Mikuo gave him a high five.

"Plus she's good in bed too" Dell added.

"Yeah!" the guys cheered. Haku rolled her eyes.

"I agree" Sora added.

"I still hate you for that" Dell mumbled.

"Not my fault I dated her before you did" Sora shrugged.

"What about you and Lily?" Nero asked.

"What about her? I don't care" Sora shrugged.

"You've got to be kidding me." Gakupo sighed. "She may never show her feelings but she's openly showed them to you plenty of times and you just say something stupid. You need to learn to pay attention to women Sora."

"Your one to talk!" Sora snapped.

"I may jump from women to women but I do listen to them and women always want guys to figure stuff out instead of just telling us what they want. If you watch and listen you figure out things pretty quickly."

"So what do you think about Lily?"

"Well like I said, she rarely shows any positive feelings but when she does she defiantly likes you. Didn't you see how upset she was when you guys got hurt?"

"She was upset?" Sora asked.

"You idiot" Kaito sighed. "Even I picked that up. Everyone was upset but no one was more upset then Lily. Haku told me later that she went upstairs and cried after she left. Plus when Miku yelled your name Lily ran over and nearly had a heart attack staring at the slashes on your back."

"And then later in the game room, instead of Miku changing your bandages, Lily insisted on it." Gakupo added.

"I…wouldn't have guessed" Sora said.

"Idiot" Kiyoteru said from his arm chair.

"Shut up!" Sora snapped. "What about you Kiyoteru?"

"None of your business" Kiyoteru answered.

"Aw come on little man!" Shou said giving him a noogie.

"Get off!" Kiyoteru yelled. Shou laughed and let go. "Luka and I are long beyond a simple relationship." Kiyoteru adjusted his glasses. "That's all I'll say"

"And I though you were heartless" Shou said with a smile.

"Shut up" Kiyoteru sighed flipping a page in his book.

"I've heard enough" I whispered. Mom nodded.

"If your gonna listen in on our conversations ladies, you could at least join us" Taito said. Our eyes widened as the guys turned towards the stair case.

"Damn you Taito!" Haku yelled. "Abort!" Haku grabbed my hand and dragged me down the hall.

"Go go go!" Mom yelled pulling Meiko and Tei a long with her.

After an hour in the theater we began to watch a movie as everyone began to fall asleep. After almost everyone was asleep Kaito walked in. He waved for me to join him. I got up and followed him out of the room. When he shut the door and turned to me, his eyes were angry. My eyes widened as he grabbed my hand.

"I can't believe you did that Miku!" he growled.

"You did the same thing to me remember." I snapped back. "I know I shouldn't have…but…I had to know." I shut my eyes. "I don't regret it."

He hugged me as my eyes widened. "Miku" he kissed my hair. "I love you." I gasped. I already knew he did but just hearing him say it was so much different. Happy tears fell form my eyes. "I love you so much Miku."

I clutched his shirt. "I love you too." I looked up at him. "I love you Kaito." I kissed him. His arms slid tight around me. "Come on" I whispered. I grabbed his hand and pulled him down the hallway.

"Where are we going?" he asked as I went up the steps.

"No place special. Just a place to be alone." We eventually reached my room. I unlocked the door and walked in pulling Kaito with me. I shut the door then turned to him. "I love you Kaito." I grabbed his hands and smiled up at him. "So…if you want…we can do what ever you'd like." It took at least 3 minutes before Kaito put two and two together.

"Oh...oh!" He chuckled. "I guess I'm not good at reading women like Gakupo." He nervously scratched the back of his neck.

"You're an idiot." I sighed. I leaned against the wall.

"But I'm your idiot." He gave me a quick kiss. "The idiot that you love."

"Your making me consider taking it back."

Kaito laughed and ran his hand down my cheek. "I use to think that when you said you didn't love me you meant it." He grabbed my hands. "And I was worried that you'd get rid of me eventually." He smiled. "So when you said that you love me."

I kissed him. "It made you happy?"

"More then you'll ever know Miku."

"Then…"

"I've known that I loved you from the day I met." He pulled me to him. "And I've waited a long time to finally get the chance to love you." He smiled deviously. "In every way that I can."

"You make everything sound disgusting, you know that right?"

"Yeah yeah, I know. I'm an idiot."

"No." I smiled. "You're an ass."

Kaito laughed and lifted me into his arms like a baby. "Don't hold back alright?"

"I don't have to." I smiled again. "Piko and Mikuo say I bottle up my feelings and I do. I know I do and it's my defense from getting hurt by people." I kissed his cheek. "But ever since I told you about my father…I've never bottled my feelings with you."

"Expect you wouldn't tell me you love me" he mumbled.

"Shut up. Be happy we don't have to struggle to get a bed room."

"You make things sound skeevy."

"You're the skeevy one" I countered.

"Maybe but that's why you love me."

"No, I love you because you're an idiot." I hugged him. "And for some stupid reason I can't get enough of it."

"I love you Miku." He whispered.

"I love you Kaito."

The next morning, I awoke to the sound of running water. Luka was in the bathroom. My eyes widened as I looked underneath the blanket. Oh no.

"Relax, I'm not looking" Luka said. She walked out of the bathroom and grabbed her uniform. "I'm going to Kiyoteru's room if you need me." She smiled. "But I'm sure you won't need me with that in your bed." Luka gave me a thumbs up as she walked out of the room.

I smiled and snuggled against Kaito which woke him up. He smiled and kissed my hair. "Good morning love."

"Don't even think of calling me love now. That just sounds too much like Gakupo."

"I heard that line in a move once. I figured it fit" He shrugged.

I sighed. "Only you Kaito. Only you."

"You love me remember?'

"Oh I remember." I blushed a little. "In every way possible huh?"

He smiled deviously. "I kept my promise."

"I know." I giggled.

Kaito laughed. "You're so cute."

"Shut up." I gave him a kiss. "I'm hungry. Let's get breakfast."

"Fine but you have to sit on my lap like Neru does."

"When hell freeze over."

"Boo!" Kaito complained.

"Be happy with what you get." I sat up. "I almost forgot." I blushed. "I was a little busy and I forgot to ask how your cuts are healing?"

"Fine thanks to my little nurse." He gave me quick kiss. "Come on, before I keep you here for a lot longer."

"I may just let you."

"Don't things like that" He looked at me. "You're tempting me aren't you?"

"Just a little." I got up and began to get dressed in fresh close. Kaito opened one of my drawer's. "Wear this one." He held out my black panties.

"Pervert!" I yelled. I punched him in the arm as hard as I could.

Kaito laughed. "What? I don't get to pick what I like!"

"No you don't!" I grabbed the panties out of his hand and put them on. "Stay out of my drawers!" He held out a black bra. My eyes narrowed as he laughed. I snatched the bra from him.

"And I thought you were an A"

"Shut up you ass." I put my bra on.

"Put on something sexy." He said putting his boxer shorts on. "If you're picking out my clothing then I'm picking out yours."

"Don't tell me you're going to pick out my boxers for me?" He chuckled.

"I like plaid" I announced. I walked over to the closet and pulled a flowery dress my mom had gotten me for my birthday last year. I put it on. "Cute."

"Thanks." I modeled it. "Is this sexy enough for you?"

"Not even." He got up. "If you want sexy." He looked in my closet. "Put this on" he held out the dress Luka had given me. "I bet you were just thinking about how sexy I looked in that when you said I looked good."

"Yeah" he sighed.

"You're an ass."

"So you tell me."

I hit him then slid a pair of black flats onto my feet. "Get dressed."

"I'm not sexy enough for you?" Kaito asked modeling his boxer's. I laughed and slid into his arms. "You're more then enough sexy." I traced his abs with my finger tips. "Any girl dreams of dating a guy with rock hard abs."

"Do they now." He smiled. "Then I'm hot stuff right?"

"Well duh" I kissed him. "And you're all mine."

"If it were any other girl I'd hate it." He held my face in his hands. "But hearing it from you makes me happy."

"Good now get dressed" I ordered.

"Miku!" mom sang.

Kaito's eyes widened. He quickly got dressed. "Where's my shirt?"

I blushed. "Over there" I pointed at the lamp. It was hanging on it. Kaito smiled deviously as he put his shirt on. "Quit smiling you jerk." I opened the door. "Hi mom"

"Guess what?" mom shrieked. She glared at Kaito. "Why is he in your room alone with you?"

"What mom?"

"Haku says she got us permission to go to the beach!"

"Really?" I shrieked.

"Yep." Mom glared at Kaito and gave him a I'm watching you sign.

Kaito smiled. "Hi Mrs. Hatsune."

"I don't like you." Mom announced.

"I know" Kaito sighed.

"Mom" I moaned.

"Your in the clear for now boy but if you even kiss my daughter when were at the beach, I'll cut your lips off with my Nata. You feel me"

"I feel you Mrs. Hatsune"

"Good" Mom crossed her arms. "Get dressed. Were leaving in an hour and I want to work on my tan." Mom walked over to my dresser and looked around in my drawer. "Wear this one." She held out a one piece bathing suit. "Less to look at" Mom left with a slam of my door.

"Well I know what I'm not gonna wear." I tossed the bathing suit onto my bed and pulled out my blue poka dotted bikini.

"That's hot" Kaito said pulling me to him.

"Shut up." I elbowed him then put my bikini back and picked a black one instead.

"Hotter" Kaito announced.

"Shut up." I mumbled as I put it on then slid my dress over top.

"So are you gonna dress me now."

"You're a big boy" I walked over to the door and grabbed the door knob. "Beside's, I'd rather take your close off then put them on."

"Now who sounds like Gakupo?" He said as he followed me out. I laughed as we walked down the hallway hand in hand with a smile on our faces.
