To Love-Ru: Xenomorph
Chapter 9:- Innocence of Mikan & Kei
Opening Theme:- デストピア - GLAY
[Continued on after the end of Chapter 8:- Nana & Kei.]
-It was the next following day as it was 5:38 in the morning as Mikan was waking up slowly as she noticed that she was sleeping in the living during that whole night. She blinked a few times to clear her vision as she then stretched and turned and looked up to see Kei's face, as she realised that she was sleeping on his lap during the whole time as Mikan would blush madly and get up as she took a few steps back from Kei as she was embarrassed for sleeping on his lap-
Mikan: W-W-Was I sleeping on your lap the whole night?
Kei: Yes.
Mikan: A-And you were okay with it?
Kei: Yes.
Mikan: Were you able to sleep?
Kei: Yes.
Mikan: Did you even sleep?
Kei: Yes.
Mikan: Stop saying "yes" and say something else!
Kei: Okay.
Mikan: W-Where's Celine-chan?
Kei: With Lala.
Mikan: O-Okay then.. Did you get enough sleep?
Kei: A little. I was...Making sure...If you were...comfortable or were..Able to sleep.. -Mikan would blush slightly and skip a heartbeat as she did not know that he was that caring and was being so kind to her-
Mikan: A-Anyway, I-I think I'm just gonna go take a-a...Uh..Bath..Yeah! I'm gonna go take a bath, c-can you prepare breakfast for everyone?
Kei: American..Breakfast?
Mikan: Hmm~ Yeah, sure, why not? Something different once in awhile. -Mikan went upstairs to her room to get some clothes and her towel as she took a deep breath and sigh softly as she got nervous for being too personally close with Kei for the first time-
-The TV was on as Kei turned it on to hear the news but saw that there was a Disney movie being played as it was the movie called "Moana" that released not long ago was being played on TV and the song "We Know The Way" was being played as well while Kei was cooking with an innocent smile on his face, and as he was cooking the eggs and bacon along with toasting the bread and getting the milk and juices ready with a choice of coffee as well, he was singing along with the song and was being watched by Momo as she was hiding at the side of the door and was peeking out at Kei as she was blushing and was smiling happily to see Kei singing for the first time and was smiling and cooking at the same time. Hearts could be seen popping out of Momo's head as she was shaking her butt slightly and had her hand covering her mouth as it looked like she was controlling herself to not pounce on Kei as she was being watched by Mikan who happened to come downstairs to see the situation-
Mikan:...I-I'll let her be, just for today.. -Mikan said quietly as she went to the bathroom to take a bath. As Mikan was taking a bath, the others were already awake and could smell of Kei's cooking from upstairs. As the others entered the kitchen, they could see Momo drooling at the sight of Kei, as Nana was disgusted at the sight of what Momo was doing but then ignored her after that, as soon as Mikan was done bathing and changing, she joined everyone for breakfast and ate together but Kei only had bacon and eggs with a cup of orange juice-
Rito: So, Kei-san? Is it okay for me to ask why were there other Xenomorphs apart from just you?
Kei: -He placed his glass down after he drank his juice as Momo wiped his mouth with a tissue- The Xenomorphs that are here..Are more friendlier than others.
Rito: Friendlier?
Kei: They only want...A quiet and peaceful life.
Nana: To sum up, they don't want to be part of battles and such, so they wanna be kept hidden in the sewers while avoiding any contact with Humans, am I right?
Kei: Yes.
Rito: How many other Xenomorphs are there in this country?
Kei: 25 hives.
Rito: ...So nearly a million or more?
Kei: Yes.
Nana: Oh and today, I'll be going out to meet Mea.
Rito: I'm going out with Lala and Celine-chan to help find some books with Yami.
Momo: I'm gonna visit Haruna-san today.
Rito: S-Sairenji?
Momo: Yes~ Though I'm just going there to get some stuff from her and maybe chat a little~
Mikan: I'm staying at home.
Kei: Same.
Rito: All right then? You two watch over the house?
Mikan: Sure.
-After breakfast as everyone went out while Kei had gotten out of the bath and Mikan was watering the plants as Kei would then help her with the chores and hang up the laundry. After Kei was done hanging up the laundry, Mikan would fling some water at Kei to tease him as Kei obliged as he chased after Mikan as the two youngest members of the household started playing with each other like little children, as Kei caught up to Mikan, he grabbed her from behind and held her like he was hugging her as she was laughing happily as Kei lost his balance and fell on top of the grass with Mikan on his body, he would chuckle softly for the first time as Mikan blushed at the sight and laughed as well. Minutes later as the two were inside as Mikan was doing her homework while Kei was helping her. After the two were done with their chores, Mikan wanted to go out as she was bored at home and she wanted to show Kei around the city, so she called her brother to let her know as the two got changed and went out together as Mikan had worn a cute outfit while Kei had worn something simple yet suitably perfect for his look as Mikan chose the clothes for him to wear. As the two were walking together in the city, Mikan held hands with Kei to "make sure he wouldn't get lost" and brought him to a cat cafe as people were looking at the two as many were envious of both Kei and Mikan as they look like a very natural couple and are adorable together. The two would enter a cat cafe as they saw Yui there as she was playing with the cats-
Mikan: Kotegawa-san!
Yui: M-Mikan-chan! And...Kei-kun?!
Mikan: Wow! I didn't know you two were that close.
Yui: We're not, what do you mean?
Mikan: You called him by his first name.
Yui: Eh?! I am? -Kei nodded as Yui blushed madly and was embarrassed as she bowed to Kei and apologised as Kei would then pat Yui's back lightly as he didn't mind it, since he likes being called "Kei"- So why are you two together?
Kei: Date.
Yui: W-What?!
Mikan: H-He's joking! He's only joking!
Yui: It's hard to tell with that poker face of his..
-Mikan was playing with the cats and kittens as she was hugging onto a black kitten with golden eyes while Yui and Kei were chatting together-
Yui: So, Kei-kun? Where's Momo-chan? I thought she would be the one that hangs out with you more often, and also Nana-chan.
Kei: Nana went out...With Mea. Momo went...To see some other..Person.
Yui: Is that so?
Kei: By the way.
Yui: Hmm?
Kei: How is your relationship..With Rito?
Yui: ! -She started coughing loudly as she would then quickly close her mouth with her hand as Kei handed her some tissue as she thanked him and coughed into the tissue as she blushed and looked back at him as she was embarrassed- Y-Yuuki-kun? W-w-w-what are you even talking about, Kei-kun?
Kei: Don't you...Love him? -He asked as he tilted his head-
Yui: I-I do not! B-Besides, how would you know that I'm in love with him?
Kei: You're both very...Obvious in facial...Expressions.
Yui: Wha-?! -She'd blush madly out of embarrassment but she did not yell at him as she just scoffed, looked away from Kei and drank her drink, as Mikan then came over to the two as she sat on Kei's lap and was carrying the same black little kitten that she was playing with awhile ago- You two are really close..
Mikan: We are? Can't really tell.
Yui: Well yeah! You're sitting on his lap, you're comfortably drinking off from his drink when you have your own drink and when you two came in, I saw you two holding hands! How shameless!
Mikan: -She'd blush slightly after what Yui had just said- W-Well..When I was holding his hand, I didn't want him to get lost since he's still new to the country!
Yui: Okay, that I'll understand but what about the others?
Mikan: T-That was...Uh.. -She was panicking as Kei hugged her like a pillow as he put his chin on her head lightly-
Kei: We are cousins.
Yui: Eh? Really?
Kei: We are blood related.
Mikan: Y-Yeah! That's right, he actually lives in Hong Kong, which is why his name is very different from ours.
Yui: Yeah...I guess you're right. Though for cousins, sitting on laps, hugging closely and sharing drinks like that is awfully shameless.
Kei: No one will ever know~ -Mikan giggled softly-
Yui: Well it doesn't matter, not like anyone will know you two are relatives since you guys look like an actual couple.
Mikan: I-I'm 12 years old..He's 16.. There's a four year difference..
Yui: Though it isn't illegal. If you were 11 right now and if you two are actually dating, then it would be a crime, but seriously though, I really doubt anyone would know that you're 12 years old since you look more mature than your age says.
Kei: Mikan is...A big girl. -Mikan would blush as she looked down with an embarrassed look on her face after what Kei said as a joke-
Mikan: K-Kei! E-Even if that was a joke, it can be embarrassing! -She said as she yelled at Kei as he got slightly scared and was a little paranoid as he apologised, Mikan then felt bad for yelling at him for over a joke as she then sit sideways and apologised to him as she put the cat near his face as it licked his cheek softly as Kei smiled softly-
Yui:...F-Feels like I'm actually watching a drama.
Mikan: What do you mean?
Yui: You two are very entertaining as Kei-kun is very innocent along with you Mikan-chan.
Mikan: W-What do you mean by him being innocent?
Yui: I don't know but there's just something about him that makes him very innocent, he's not like Yuuki-kun or most other boys, you'd just feel comfortable being around him.
Mikan: Exactly how I feel! That must be the reason why Momo-san and Nana-san are so attached to him!
Yui: Kurosaki-san and Yami-chan are quite attached to him too in school.
Mikan: Eh really? You were close to Yami-san? Why didn't you tell me earlier? -She asked Kei as she leaned on his chest as she looked up at him-
Kei: We only talk..About books and stories.
Yui: Normally Yami-chan would ignore others to avoid a conversation with people since she's quite antisocial but she willingly follows Kei-kun sometimes when he's in the library and the two would read together.
Mikan: With Momo-san and Nana-san there?
Yui: Sometimes Momo-chan will be with the two but not that often. Yami-chan even smiled at someone she just met for the first time!
Mikan: Eh?! No way! She rarely smiles! Especially to a guy!
Yui: I was in the school library one day and I saw the two together and heard them talking about some book called "Re:Zero" or something and Yami-chan laughed and smiled!
Mikan: Eh~? Is that so~? Well this is news to me.. -She said as she looked up at Kei as she glared at him as she was jealous that he was hanging out with Yami instead of her- Though how close is Mea-san with him?
Yui: Kurosaki-san just so happens to be slightly similar to Momo-chan, obsessive and protective. If a guy provokes him or accidentally bumps shoulders with him, Kurosaki-san or even Momo-chan would glare at the person with the intent to kill. Which is kind of a problem for me, since I don't want people to fight in the school..
Mikan: So you're always hanging out with girls, huh? -She repeated what she did before as she glared at Kei once more-
Yui: Mikan-chan?
Mikan: Yes?
Yui: Do you not like him to be around women?
Mikan: Eh? I-It's not like I don't, it's just that..I get a little paranoid. It's like with Rito, most of his friends now are all girls while his only closest male friend is Kei, and that goes to the same for Kei!
Yui: Ah I see your point, you're afraid that he might turn into a playboy.
Mikan: Yes- wait no! No! I don't! I just...
Yui: Hmm~?
Kei: -He hugged Mikan tightly as he turned her away from Yui- Do not bully...Mikan.
Yui: Aww~
-Mikan would blush madly from having him to embrace her in such a way as her heart was raising rapidly. Soon afterwards Mikan and Kei left the cat cafe while Yui stayed there a little while longer to play with the cats and as Mikan and Kei were walking down a park, they saw Nemesis standing right in front of them as she said hi to them both-
Mikan: N-Nemesis?! Y-You're making Kei angry..!
Nemesis: Do not fret, Yuuki Mikan. I am not here to fight. I came here to do something that I have never done in my entire life. -She walked to Kei as she quickly got down to her knees and apologised sincerely to Kei- I am truly sorry for what I have done to your people as I wished I had not done such a thing and I came to realise that I underestimated your kind! I am so sorry!
Mikan: Ah..She apologised..That's new..
Kei: -He sighed softly as he got down to Nemesis and patted her head softly as he spoke to her telekinetically- "I will never forgive you for what you have done to my people but you could change my opinion of you by becoming someone else, by changing yourself. And also, please get up, you're embarrassing yourself and Mikan.." -He would smile to Nemesis as the dark skinned girl would blush slightly as her eyes widened as it looked like she became a little girl for a moment as Mikan was confused of the situation as Mikan did not know that he was speaking to Nemesis through his powers-
Nemesis: To think that you were such a kind person. Though I must admit that you are a little naive like Yuuki Rito but a much better person than he is. So be it! You shall be my master! Ahaha! -She said as she clinged onto Kei's left arm as his right arm was occupied by Mikan-
Mikan: Eh?! W-What?! Y-You just got another girlfriend?!
Kei: Girlfriend?
Mikan: I forgot that you're more innocent than I am...
Nemesis: Yuuki Mikan! From now on, you are my enemy and my rival for the master!
Kei: Do not...Bully Mikan.
Nemesis: O-Okay..
Mikan: -She thought to herself as she was a little worried about Kei- "I-It's like he's creating a harem full of Aliens.. He's just as bad as Rito!"
