Chapter 10 His Dad Still Hates Me

Katsuki POV

To say that I am worried would be an understatement I mean sure I could put a good old boy charm on and I could calm down my temper but that wouldn't matter. In the end, I'm just the brother of hotheaded murder. His dad refuses to see reason and I'm sure by now the rest of the family is poisoned by his stupid misconception of me.

So the last thing that I want is to go to this party, my shoulder were killing me, my muscle twisted into thick not. I could barely move them most of the time and when I can they are racked with pain from the overworked muscle.

Taking time off from training is a good thing and one month won't kill me. In fact, when he said that and Aiden signed off on it I was relieved. I shifted to get a better look at Eijiro, his red hair glowing in the fading sunlight.

I was about to say something when a shadow fell over my face, a shadow that is way too big to belong to a bird. As I looked upwards I could see Aiden flying over us. His wings flapping without any effort or sound. While a sneer was plastered on his face, he looked like a predator going in for the kill.

"What are you thinking about? Is it Aiden? Does it bug you that he has to make sure that the villains don't attack the house?" I could hear the concern in his voice and as I title my head downward away from the brilliant sky. I could see the worry in his red gaze. His eyes filled with more question as he silently frowned at me like he was waiting for me to respond.

But I said nothing those were my thoughts at all and I doubt that a good birthday gift would be to say I didn't want to meet his family let alone be in the same room with them for hours. So I slowly shook my head no and gave me a loving smile as my best attempt to distract him before noticing the approaching house.

Just seeing the house is enough for my heart to crawl in my thought as trepidation filled every corner of my brain. "Nah it's nothing like that I was just thinking how much I need this month just the two of us. October 16 the day that the best person in the world was born and I plan to enjoy it."

I put on my best flashy grin before turning to see an ear-splitting grin taking over his face as his red eyes lit up with joy. As if that one comment made his day, when I turned to look at the house I notice a sliver ladder shining in the faded son. A thin woman with bright red eyes and black hair seemed to be clearing out the gutter.

But as I got closer to the house I noticed that it wasn't crisp red leaves she had in her hand but instead. Whispy cotton-like material that looked a lot like spiderwebs, man their family must really love Halloween. The webs seemed to drape downwards from the gutter to the front windows of the house.

I turned to look at Eijiro questioning, I thought we were here for his birthday party did he lie to me. I tried to keep my temper in check as I examined Eijiro face taking in even the slightest change of his features.

"Did I not tell that we would decorate the house for like an hour or two so that you could get along better with my father." I let out an angry snarl as I got ready to start yelling when I noticed a falling shadow out of the corner of my eyes. As I spun sharply on my feet I lurched forward as I saw his mother falling from the ladder.

The warmth of her body mingles with mine as I cradle her bridal style in my arms for a moment before placing her on the ground. Her long black locks slipped to the side as she tried to regain her balance. Tilting from side to side for a moment before turning her bright red eyes to me.

A wide and grateful grin is plaster on her face and I could see the excitement in her eyes as she looked at me. Placing a gentle kiss on my cheek and squeezed me a little to tight for my liking she turned her happy gaze from me to Eijiro. "It's good to see you again Katsuki. It's been too long a month why did my sweet little Eijiro keep you away."

I laughed lowly under my breath as I rubbed the back of my neck nervously how the hell could I tell her that every time I thought of her husband I would fly into a blind rage. But before I could utter even a single word Eijiro red gazes became frantic and nervous as he spoke.

"Mom come one." She giggled as I let go of her waist not even realizing that I had a hand still on her. She, on the other hand, didn't mind and went back to putting spider webs like she didn't just free fall from the same ladder she is climbing back on.

Worry filled my chest compelling me to hold onto the ladder as she climbs. "It wasn't Eijiro that kept me away it was my choice. I didn't want to cause any more problem then the dinner already did."

My grip tightened around the ladder as I forced an uneasy smile to my lips and shoved the venom deep down my throat. The cold air whipped through me, cooling the burning anger in my veins as I watched Eijiro move pumpkins around the yard with a content smile. That reminded me a lot of kids who help their parents decorate.

"Alright, you can let go now." I look up to see that Eijiro mom was slowly descending the latter, both her hands gripped tightly to the silver rail as she reached the lowest rung of the ladder I finally let go.

I stood there on the concrete approach not sure what to do as she walked over to the front door and grabbed a worn brown box and handed it over to me. The wood was a little damp it must have spent a long time in their basement.

I placed it gently on the grass I wasn't going to get blamed for running whatever is in here. As I slowly opened the tabs of the box I noticed that it was full of supplies. There were stand up monsters and ghosts made from wispy strands of clothes and plastic.

"We don't stop till the whole yard is filled." His mother voice rang with both excitement and authority and I thought it best not to mess with their families tradition. I wonder if they did this every October 16.

As time progresses I think that we had been doing this for a couple of house now and I didn't count on as my back became drenched in sweat from all the hard work. An icy cold chill ran through my bones. Jeez, they really took this holiday seriously.

I was hammering down a witch with a wicked grin whose face is covered in warts and a large green haggle nose that looked like goat cheese. When it started to laugh and waves a grimy looking hand at me. My heart sped up in shock as my hand darted out, it wants to till my hands spark inches from the witches face that I got myself together.

But not before Eijiro caught me and started to bust out in a fit of laughter, small tears formed in the corner of his eyes as this smug grin took over his face. My whole face felt on fire as my embarrassment betrayed my anger."Shut up."

That only made him laugh even harder as he heard my hash and hurt tone forcing him to slowly walked over to me. This joy in his eyes formed in his eyes as he looked at the Halloween decoration like it was going to move and attack us at any time and for some reason that brought joy to his face. "Its electric and the witch is one of my favorites."

I sighed heavily, of course, the one that scares the living shit out of me is the one that he found to be the best. I let my eyes drift to the witch just taking in its disgusting appearance when Eijiro bridge the gap between the two of us.

I wrapped my arms around his waist as he shivered at my touch. I sight and rest my head in the crook of his neck. Anything to get rid of the cold chill that took over my bones.

But as I soaked up all of his warmth I notice the goosebump that started to form on his skin. As I pulled my face out of the warmth and safety of his neck I could see the concern on his face. "Your ice cold Katsuki, why didn't you say something let's get you inside."

I pulled out of his grasp and slowly started to walk towards the door with Eijiro walking worriedly at my side. Hovering over me like he was afraid that at any moment I would drop dead from hypothermia.

"Your body feels like a block of ice are you okay?" I turn to look at him, silent question wrong in his eyes as we made it to the front room.

When I was greeted by the warmth of the room I sighed out in relief, the cold slowly slipped from my bones as the warmth embrace me like a hug. I noticed movement from the corner of my eyes as I noticed Eijiro mom walked over to me.

She had this gentle smile on her face and a grateful look in her eyes as she lifted her hand up to give me a steaming cup of coffee. I felt a smile take over my face as I regretfully and hurdle grabbed the coffee out of her hands.

The caramel coffee color liquid filled me with warmth before I even took a sip. But when I die I was surprised it was perfectly sweet just like how I like it.

"I hear that you used to work at a cafe as a favor to you friend and you love coffee so I figure that you deserved a treat for helping us decorate the lawn." I smile wide before turning from her to Eijiro he had this small gracious smile.

"Thank you that was very kind of you and this perfect." Her whole disposition seemed to change with those few words. She seemed more light and happy as she pulled Eijiro out of the room. Leaving me to wander into the empty left.

The silence is welcome as I slowly sipped the coffee, the burning hot liquid slipped down my throat as it warmed my gullets. While my hand greedily stole the warmth from the cup, leaving me it looks blankly out the window. I hadn't even noticed that Eijiro had come back into the room.

I didn't really notice his presence till a soft gray fabric wrapped around my body providing extra warmth and driving away what was left of the cold that had been plaguing my bones this whole time.

"So do you want to tell me why you feel like a corpse?" I turned a little shock that I hadn't noticed till now before looking back out the window to see approaching cars. His family would be here any moment just great. I slipped off the comforting warmth of the blankets.

"I'm not good in the cold, when it comes to winter and fall I can't deal I get cold really quick. I run hot in the summer and the spring but the fall and winter no matter how hot I run I freeze. Thanks to always being cold it gets harder for me to sweat. Hence why my shoulders are over worked from all that training. But I'll be fine I just need a thicker jacket"

I turn to look at Eijiro as the front door open and happy chatter filled the air, well it's about time that hell started. I slowly stood folding the gray blanket into a neat square before placing my cup of coffee down. It's time to socialize.

The party was great and there was a lot of fun, bright purples light flickered over the room as it was filled with both music and excited laughter. I was shocked if we are being honest, I thought that his family would hate me in the same way that his father did. But they all adore me and not a single one of them brought up the bullshit with my sister and my family.

It is a pleasant surprise and I am thankful for that, but as I talked avidly with one of Eijiro cousin a few years older than me. I could feel this hunty stare from across the room. As I looked up I could see Eijiro dad talking to someone but his glare sees me directed at me. I'm dating his son so we should at least pretend to get along.

I excused myself were talking over to the table it's the last thing that I want to do but if we would both agree to be nice just while he is around then that would be great. But as I got closer to him my body seemed to heat up in anger as I noticed his disgusted stare.

"Nice to see you Katsuki what do I owe this unfortunate pleasure." I looked at him too shocked to speak, I know that he is open about hating me. But damn he could have waited a few moments before going in on me.

I pushed passed the angry lump that had formed in my throat to speak for a moment. "I'm here for Eijiro, all the time that we spend together and school and I figured that I could spend one day no drama with him for his birthday."

I watched him as he mulls something over, but I don't know what made him disapprove of that sentence. I made it sound perfect, I wasn't yelling and I wasn't rude yet his face turned into a sneer ass the purple lights illuminated his face. it

It was like no matter what I did this guy hates me and that wasn't ever going to change with him and I was done apologizing and tiptoeing around because it would make him feel better. This is bullshit and I wasn't going to take this shit anymore. "Funny so you can only spend time with my son when it is convenient for you."

That isn't what I am trying to say and it's total bullshit that he twisted my words around like that. I turned slightly to see that Eijiro is talking to one of his cousins and even though his face is lit up with joy I couldn't take the nice game anymore.

"It's not like that I have been busy with school, I wasn't able to give him all of my attention. I'm trying to be nice for his sake but let's make thing clear I don't care about your opinions. Your wife loves me and that all I care about. You're not relevant."

I don't know how it is possible but I wanted his face to become angry as a disgusted sneer took over his face and fire burned in his black eyes. Even his nose is scrunched up and his eyebrows slipped down in rage.

A look of pure loathing took over his face as his lips curled into a cruel sneer as he spoke. "Well if we are benign honest. Your family is full of psycho and murders, they should have killed your brother like they killed your bitch of a sister. You don't deserve my son, in fact, they should throw you and the rest of your murderous family in a hole and never let you out."

At that moment I was truly speechless I didn't know weather to try proving him wrong by walking away or if I should punch him in the face and make sure that he never got back up. As I stood in this suffocating room I could breathe, the air seemed to get stuck in my lungs as I walked out of the room. Doing my best to keep my composure together as I made it through the door.

The cool air hit my skin causing shivers and goosebumps to form on my skin. I sighed an I took in a deep breath. Doing my best to clear out my sense as I looked up at the crescent moon. Shining bright and raining its silver light down on me and the entire yard.

"That sounded pretty rough you got some balls not to kill him, I would have destroyed him. Hell I would have destroyed the whole family for comments like that"

When I looked up I could see Aiden staring blankly at the moon. His red eyes lit up with rage as his back laid faulty against the roof. As he breath outwards I noticed rings of fire forming around him till they dissipated into black smoke.

I let out a sigh watching my breath form on my face as I cold wind ripped through me, but I didn't mind it. As I stared blankly at the silver moon I could only think of where I went wrong. How could someone that didn't know the first thing about me hate me?

"It's a great night wouldn't you agree." If I didn't just get into an argument with his father then it would be a great night but right now I just want to go home. I mean home home not that bullshit dorm. I can't believe I'm saying this but I want to go home I want to see my mom and my dad and that had to be the most twisted thing that I ever thought.

As I look down from the sky I could see Eijiro moving closer to me bridging the gap with three long strides until his red eyes were able to take properly over my frame. I guess he must have noticed something is wrong because he seemed to tense up with worry as he spoke.

"Is it your shoulders or is it something else." As I watched him, I could see him trying to read me as the pain began to creep into my chest. I know that it met so much to him to have one day just the two of us but I can't keep dealing with his dad.

"I don't want to ruin your day so let's go back to the party and we can talk about it later." I turned to walk into the house but he gripped my arms tightly and helped me there. Freezing me in my tracks as I groaned.

"No, I will think about it all night if you really don't want to ruin this then tell me what is going on." I turn to look at him, his red eyes tearing and ripping at me, to tell the truth. "You father he told me that I'm not only not good enough for you, but that they should have killed my brother along with Anka and the rest of us should have been thrown in jail and throw away the key."

"Its kinda just hard to deal with it and try to make this a good day for you, sorry I really did try." I turn to look at him as this anger flared in eyes, defiant and strong. "You wait here I will be right back." I watched him run off into the house this was going to be a big mess.
