CHAPTER 9

"Our love isn't as romantic as the one in movies, not as satisfactory as the one in fairy tales, but it's stronger than all of them – and that's all that matters." –Unknown

"Hibari… Takuya, you say." Yuuta said in his low, smooth voice. "I do not remember arranging an appointment with you." Hibari Takuya smiled. "Obviously, because I forced myself in here. You have very tough guards." The red haired male narrowed his eyebrows, as he gripped the handle of his chair. "What business do you have with me? I believe we have never met – and therefore nothing we should be having a major issue talking upon." It was Takuya's turn to give the latter a cold stare. "You speak as if you don't know what I'm talking about." "I don't." Both males sat in heavy silence, the intensity growing by seconds.

"Then I will move straight to the point." Takuya leaned in closer, as Yuuta remained motionless. "What," The dark brown haired male hissed threateningly – "Have you done to my son?" Akashi Yuuta twitched at how the other emphasized the particular word. He put his hands on his lap without a word, and looked up. "I have not the slightest idea what you are talking about. Why would I have any business done with your son? I am a busy man, with my own career that I need to complete with much concentration. I have no time to waste it on something so trivial as another person's child." Takuya gritted his teeth, as he got hold of himself and leaned back on his seat. He took in a deep breath, and closed his eyes, until he was fully sure that he was capable of talking properly again.

"Very well – if that's how you want to deal with this situation, then I will play along." The man started, as Yuuta smiled, as if he found this whole scene very interesting. "The Akashi Family, I heard, is very well known for their respectable ancestors and honorable descendants that continue the line. You, Akashi Yuuta – are also known as one of the most intelligent member of this Family ever known, and you brought the Akashi Corporation of Law to its current peak of success. In other words, you are considered to be… well, a significant being that is to be marked in the history of Japanese Law." Hibari Takuya explained calmly, as Yuuta tilted his head to the side.

"I am flattered, Hibari Takuya. As far as I know, you are not too bad yourself. Building up the world's most successful entertainment companies isn't an easy task to accomplish at the early ages of a twenty-two year old." Hibari Takuya smirked. "Well, thank you. But my apologies, for my rudeness I am about to inflict on you." Yuuta frowned in sore confusion. "You, as a businessman have gained victory – but as a parent you have failed miserably." Takuya continued, as Yuuta glared at the male. "You do not know of my relationship with my son." The latter smirked. "Yes, I do not. However, I can get hold of the information from my worker." Yuuta's eyes widened, as he stood up very abruptly.

"Mihae." He muttered, as Takuya nodded with much satisfaction. "I am glad you noticed. Yes, Akashi Mihae – a wonderful businesswoman she is, if I have to add – has provided me of this very interesting… story, I suppose – let's put it that way. She has informed me of quite remarkable actions of yours to your son – and I will have to say that it wasn't in a good way at all." Akashi Yuuta growled as he sat back down, in quite a furious manner. "You have no place to talk to me like that, Hibari Takuya. Your previous career has affected your son's current occupation, I know-" "And here I thought you said you had no business with my son, because you had no time for such trivial things?" Takuya smirked. "You seem to know well for a person who doesn't care." Yuuta grit his teeth and clenched his fists angrily.

"You know of my previous career, and even about my son's current occupation – which simply means you have taken unwanted interest – judging by your discouraging reaction – in the Hibari Family line. Really, I am curious. You have said merely minutes ago, that you had no business with my son or me. Then why would you know so much about the details I hide from public?" Akashi Yuuta took in a deep breath, and then spoke. "I am a businessman, Hibari Takuya – a proper one too. It is my job to hold all the information accessible about an uprising cooperation or company that might share rivalry with my own workplace in the near future." Takuya lowered his face for a while, and then looked up again.

"The information about my previous job should be well-covered. For you to know about it – that can simply mean you have not only checked the accessible data about my family, but the data that I put much effort into to cover. You were eager, I suppose – am I right?" Yuuta didn't respond. "Then let's say that I really am interested in your Family line. Yes – it is very true that I have looked with much concentration to gather as much information possible to gain extensive knowledge on you and your past life. I will not deny that from now on. However, how does that relate to the topic you are trying to talk me into?"

Hibari Takuya closed his eyes, as he sighed very lightly. "… I believe your son and my son… are in quite a questionable relationship." Akashi Yuuta was now, very irritated. Of course he knew what Hibari Takuya had come to talk about from the start. Nonetheless, that did not change the fact that he greatly despised of discussing the topic. "You may believe so, but I do not." The red head denied, as Hibari Takuya narrowed his eyes. "Your clueless cover manages to surprise me. Is this the so called 'poker face' I heard of, of the Akashi Family?" Yuuta smirked, and then shrugged very slightly. "It might be. I was never aware of such things."

Both males were silent. No – they weren't exactly silent – it was almost as if the tension and thoughts were being worded into something only the two could communicate amongst eachother, and understand at the same time. Yuuta just tilted his head to the side, as Takuya gathered the pieces in his mind back to the core of his brain. The man liked to be logical – he didn't approve of insensible behavior, or explanations, for that matter. That's why it was hard for him – as being unmistakably a part of the bloodline of Alaude, the strongest man ever known in mafia history, he couldn't hide his natural instincts – to kill the red head, right where they were.

"Well?" Akashi Yuuta smirked in quite a sly manner, as Takuya took in a deep breath and twisted his ring on his index finger. This was a sign that he was thinking very hard – a habit of the male, really. When he finally spoke, Yuuta could realize the conversation was going to take an abrupt turn. "What is your son, to you?" "I don't think I quite understand what you're saying." The red head said a little quickly. Takuya just looked down and twisted the ring side to side. "Do you really think of him as a son, I mean. Are you willing to throw your business behind, for your son?"

"No. My business always is the first in my mind, rather than my son." Takuya sighed. "What have you ever done to your son that was could actually be considered fatherly?" Yuuta narrowed his eyes. "My son and I have never made… much interaction since Kaede's death. I needed to make him worthy as an heir, and a member of the Akashi Family. Seijuro was always a smart boy. There was no problem in increasing his educational values." Takuya smirked. "Figures, really." Yuuta frowned. "You see, you kept on asking me – whether I had any business here – and when I informed you, you reacted as if you didn't know what I was talking about." "I am still quite clueless, if you want to know." The red head defended himself. Hibari Takuya narrowed his eyes, and then continued.

"I have not come here to accuse you of anything, really. But you know, humans are peculiar organisms. They have the tendency to fidget around, and then get swarmed in some… matter that does not concern them in the slightest." He said, and Yuuta frowned. "What are trying to imply, there?" "Nothing, really. Maybe, just that your butler has informed me of something very interesting. That you have locked your son up underground, I think? I don't really know…" The man trailed off, as Yuuta's eyes widened, his hands clenching around the handles of his chair.

"You simply have no idea what you're saying." He stood up again, his anger flaring. "I don't? I am pretty confident in myself, really. He even told me the specific locations. To prove it, we can go there together." Yuuta narrowed his eyes, and sat back down. Then he started laughing like a mad man, as he threw his head back on his chair and shook uncontrollably. "Yes… yes… very interesting. I wonder why. I was always so hostile to that old beggar man. And now, he betrays me. For a stranger he just met. Pitiful. So pitiful." Hibari Takuya shrugged. "I simply rewarded him. I didn't bribe him, of course. He helped one of my… former company's worker, I guess – and I was told to reward him this morning. So I did – and along came information. Useful ones, too."

Yuuta smirked. "Is that so?" He paused. "But what can you do? This is my house, my business. I'm in charge. If I call my men right now, then you're-" "It's too late." Hibari Takuya smirked, as he snapped his fingers. The door thrust open, revealing a bunch of armed men, with Yuuta's men lying in the corner – not lifeless, but just unmoving. The red head's eyes widened, as he saw Akashi and Hibari standing in the far edge.

"I think you're forgetting which side of the world I was from, Yuuta." Takuya smiled, as the men of CEDEF surrounded the red haired man. "If you have the law," He paused. "I have the mafia." Akashi Yuuta backed away. "Seijuro. You dare do this to your own father?" His son narrowed his eyes and scowled. "You were never my father from the moment mother passed away." The man's eyes widened in anger and pure fear.

"This is the end for you, Akashi Yuuta."

Later that day, the actual police arrived and arrested Akashi Yuuta for child abuse. The Generation of Miracles have all gathered later in the afternoon, and so have all the Vongola – which created a very crowded background, much to Hibari's detest of people. Hibari Takuya talked to the inspector from the side, as the police car with Akashi Yuuta drove away.

"Akashicchi, are you ok? I was so worried when Midorimacchi called all of us, telling us to come to your house in 3 hours – which was really abrupt. I ran out in the middle of a photo shoot because I was so concerned and-" Akashi sighed. "I understand, Ryouta. Let's hear what others have to say." Midorima fixed his glasses back into their original position. "I was very surprised, indeed – when Murasakibara had called me." Kise frowned. "Wait, Murasakicchi was the first one to know?" "Turns out so." Aomine grunted. "Uncle Takuya called me and told to get all of you to know, so…" The giant shrugged, as he then glanced sideways at the Vongola. "All of you are so small, though."

"You're just fucking big." Gokudera glared, as Yamamoto laughed it off. "Well, who knew Hibari had such an enormous cousin? I mean, it's even more surprising that he opened up to someone, but anyways." Ryohei nodded. "I was curious about that too, to the extreme. How did you make that Hibari to open up to you so much?" Akashi blinked, and then shrugged, as if it wasn't a much of a big deal to fuss about. "I'm not a herbivore." He smirked, and Tsuna groaned. I see what's going on here.

"Though Akashi-kun, try focusing on your school work more than Hibari-kun. I feel sorry for him." Kuroko said, as Akashi frowned. "Now Tetsuya, what is that supposed to mean? Well, I am always aware of the state of my grades, so I do not mind." Kuroko nodded, looking unsure. "Well then Akashi, I guess you guys are going to have a fun night in the summer." Aomine smirked, as Akashi glared and threw a pair of scissors that zipped through the air. The ganguro froze, and so did the guardians of the Vongola. Well, Mukuro had already seen it, so he wasn't as amazed.

"Kyoya, I am fine with having someone live with you, but just don't concentrate on the sexual affection too much." The raven shot a deadly glare at his father, and Takuya smirked, patting his son on the head. And then he leaned in and whispered: "And by the way, your mom and I do want a grandchild. Make sure you adopt." Hibari raised his voice. "Father." Hibari Takuya laughed very lightly, as he walked off elsewhere with another man from CEDEF, whom he seemed to know pretty well.

As they walked back home, while some back to the train stations, Murasakibara said in a rather hesitant manner. "Don't hurt Hiba-chin too much in your… session, ok, Aka-chin? I don't like Hiba-chin to be in pain." Akashi snorted a little. "I'm serious, Aka-chin." "I know, I know. I'll be careful." Murasakibara nodded, as he walked away with the others as well, Kise calling his name, as Midorima, Aomine, and Kuroko waited for him patiently. Akashi wondered why Momoi didn't come – but again, it wasn't exactly his business.

"Well, then… let us head home, too."

A MONTH LATER, SUMMER BREAK…

"Kyoya, wake up already. Just because it's summer break, that certainly doesn't mean you're going to stay in bed for the whole day doing nothing." Akashi sighed, leaning on the doorframe of Hibari's room. Well, both of their rooms, if he had to say. The bed was changed into a King-sized bed so that both of them could sleep in it, without having one of them to sleep on the floor. Which was convenient, Akashi had always thought, because that meant they didn't have to move to a new place.

"Sleeping is definitely a form of an action, Seijuro, just in case you weren't aware." Hibari said drowsily, as he rolled on the bed in a rather tired manner. Akashi raised his eyebrows. "An action, maybe. It's just not good for your body, that's all." Akashi said, as he sat on the bed with his mug of hot coffee. Hibari groaned, as he forced himself up on the soft cushions, stared at his hands for a while, and then opened his wardrobe and pulled out a grey T-shirt and his loose training pants. The red head wasn't completely used to Hibari half-naked, but he was at least trying to adjust to everything – and that was an improvement.

And besides, he's seen… more.

Yes, more.

"I'm guessing you don't have to go to work today?" Akashi questioned, and Hibari nodded. "Good – you've been leaving me alone so much because of your frequent missions." The red haired captain complained, as he poured hot coffee into Hibari's mug. The raven glared at him. "You should be rather thankful that I refused all the missions that guaranteed higher payments in foreign countries." Akashi smirked teasingly. "That's because I don't want to see you hurt, of course." Hibari gave him a cold look as he elbowed him in the stomach. "I'm not a herbivore, just trying to prove a point." "Like I said, you're always a herbivore to me." Akashi kissed him on the forehead, and Hibari rolled his eyes.

"Sometimes I wonder why I am dating you." As the raven grunted, Akashi smiled. "Nobody can push away my absoluteness, Kyoya. Not even you." The former prefect groaned and raised his index finger. "Make that always." The red head shrugged it off, not seeming to mind as much. It was the usual conversation that they all had from the start of the day. What was different about that particular day, was that Hibari was free – he had a day off, basically. The Vongola allowed him to stay at home for at least two days – which was good news for the red head. Hibari's missions were never that challenging – and they were always in Japan, so it didn't really matter – Hibari would come back in a matter of hours or so, nearing midnight.

"You should care more about what my father says to you, than what I do as a business." Hibari grumbled. Akashi didn't respond, as he looked up and thought quietly. The thing was – originally, by the family line, Hibari was supposed to receive the place as the head of the Sky Ent., continuing as a heir – from his father's seat. However, Hibari – being the antisocial one he was, refused. Hibari Takuya always thought of what was better for his son, and didn't force Hibari into doing anything – including this particular matter.

And that is when Akashi came in. Akashi Seijuro, the original heir of the Akashi Corporation of Law, continuing Akashi Yuuta – has changed some specific plans for Hibari Takuya, and Akashi Seijuro himself. After Akashi Yuuta was arrested from the police, called for inflicting child abuse on his own son, Hibari Takuya has decided to accept Akashi into the Hibari Family. Of course, Akashi could still continue his father's business if he wished – but Takuya provided another suggestion. Being the head of Sky Entertainment. Akashi now, was troubled momentarily – but made his decisions nonetheless. He accepted, of course – and now met Hibari Takuya time to time, when meetings were arranged.

"I care about my future business too, but," Akashi leaned in towards Hibari and whispered. "I care about you more." The raven blushed lightly, and then pushed Akashi away. "Idiot." He grumbled, as Akashi chuckled, as he ruffled the raven's hair, handing him the mug of coffee. Hibari leaned on the bedpost and took a tentative sip, and glanced at Akashi. "So, are you completely sure that you will hand over the place as a heir of the Akashi Corporation of Law to that Mihae woman?" The red head hummed for a little, as if he was in thought. "Yes, I am pretty much very sure of myself, for that certain point. Mihae is quite a wonderful woman, too. She is admirable, I'd say. Perfect for taking the next place in business." Hibari turned away as he opened his own laptop.

"I see." He mumbled, as he checked his inbox. Several emails were unchecked, and not read. Hibari went through each of them, scanning them for a while, and deleting them right after. Akashi leaned in. "Who is it?" The raven shrugged. "A few from the omnivore, and others from various herbivores." Akashi smirked. "I always found it very flattering, of how you don't call me in terms of classifying animals, but by my name. My first name, too." Hibari sighed lightly, as he sipped his coffee again. "You're different. I think we went over this more than once." Akashi closed Hibari's laptop, and then forced the boy into a strong embrace as he locked his arms around him and whispered in his pale ears; "I want to hear it again. From you."

Hibari struggled for a while, and then clutched Akashi's shirt and mumbled. "I… love you." A satisfied smile spread across Akashi's face, as he pressed his lips onto Hibari's, pushing him to the bed. Hibari tilted his face to the right, and protested. "Seijuro, it's till in the morning. Not now." The red head smiled, and then shrugged, as he let go. "Sure, sure… but I am not holding back tonight." Hibari groaned and rolled his eyes, as he sat up and flattened his hair out, with Akashi on the other side of the bed.

So of course, the day went past with the two spending time on random things in the house. They chatted throughout most of the day, with Akashi usually pestering Hibari. Not that Hibari really cared – he had grown used to it – which just made the situation more enjoyable for Akashi.

And then, came the night.

"So?" Akashi said as he pushed Hibari onto the couch. "Are you going to keep your promise?" "I never remember making one." Hibari grumbled. "But do what you wish." The red head smiled as he leaned down further and kissed Hibari. He licked his lips for a while, and then forced his tongue in to the hot cavern inside, as Hibari moaned a little. Akashi smirked, as he moved in and started nibbling on his earlobe. "W-wait… Seijuro…" Hibari gasped. Akashi, of course, didn't stop – being the lustful demon he was.

While he was doing so, his hand slowly found his place beneath Hibari's shirt, as his cold fingers stroke his upper torso. Hibari twitched and trembled, blushing. "Mmn…" Akashi smiled as he twirled his hand around Hibari's nipples. "S-Sei… hah-" He clenched his eyes shut as Akashi twisted the hardening nipple around, holding Hibari's arms up with his other hand. "Yes?" Akashi asked seductively, his eyes glowering in the dark as he turned the lights off. "S-stop-Seijuro-" Hibari's voice hitched up as Akashi tweaked his nipple. "What? Can't hear you." The red head smirked, as Hibari shook uncontrollably. He let out a loud moan, as Akashi just simply nibbled on his ear again, and then licked the side of his neck.

"You," Hibari panted. "Are not, making a bite mark there." Akashi rolled his eyes. "Fine, but I will definitely find an excuse to do so." He licked the soft skin, and then abruptly pulled Hibari's shirt off – not completely, though – he used them to hold Hibari's wrists in place, so he wouldn't move around too much – they were on the couch, after all. He continued what he was doing with the nipples, as he finally decided to play around with it – with his mouth. He licked on the hardened nipple that he already played with through his fingers, as Hibari shivered. "Ah- AH-" Hibari grunted as Akashi bit on the nipple, while also twisting the other one and scratching it with his fingernails.

"So," Akashi said, as he tweaked both nipples at the same time, making the raven yelp. "How does it feel?" Hibari glared at him. "You… idiotic… pervert." He mumbled, and gasped for air, as Akashi smirked, as he pressed his knee on Hibari's growing erection. Hibari let out a scream, not being able to hold back. "Sei-Seijuro… just-" He shook, and then moaned. "Ah- don't-" Akashi stroke his bulging erection again, as tears formed in Hibari's eyes. "Don't… what?" Akashi smiled, as Hibari trembled, not being able to say anything. He pulled Hibari's pants and boxers down, revealing Hibari's dick covered in pre-cum. The red head smirked, and then ran his fingers up and down on the slick organ, as Hibari threw his head back and gasped again. His arms were starting to ache because they were still being held back by his T-shirt, but that was the least of his concerns.

"Suck a little, will you?" Hibari glared at Akashi, as the red head put his fingers in front of Hibari's mouth. The raven groaned and helplessly licked on the hand for a while, until Akashi pulled away, and first slipped his index finger into Hibari's tight entrance. He grunted. "Kyoya… too tight…" Hibari shivered as his toes curled inward nervously. "Seijuro… hm…" His voice was now raspy. Akashi put in another one without warning. "AH!" Hibari yelped, as Akashi kissed his lips. "Bear with me, a little more. It won't hurt as much after this, I swear." Hibari opened his mouth to speak. "Just… continue." He said, as Akashi nodded, inserting another one. Hibari bit his bottom lip, as he panted.

"Ah… mmn… Seijuro…" Hibari mumbled, as Akashi's fingers scissored through his entrance. His breathing hitched up. As Akashi finally added in all four fingers. He started moving them, making Hibari moan loudly – louder than he ever used to. Akashi groaned as well, his face flushing. He started moving them faster. "Ah- AH- Seijuro-" he turned to the side, as Akashi pulled his fingers out. When he was about to unzip his own trousers, Hibari stopped him, and panted.

"The rest… in the room." He said, and Akashi smirked.

"Very well."

Love stories don't always need to happen like they do in Disney.

At least, that's what the two thought.

End of Chapter.

This chapter was a little short yes – considering that it was the final chapter. It took me what, five months to finish this? I don't even know. Six, maybe – who knows.

But hey. It's done.

I don't know whether I'm happy or not – this is actually my first proper story that isn't a one-shot that I finished properly. So I guess I must be really proud, but I am not so sure.

Well, now that this story is over… I always wanted to share these particular points with all of you.

CREATION BACK STORY: LOVE AND LUST

1: Love and Lust was supposed to be MuraHiba – Murasakibara x Hibari. However, I had another pairing I wanted to try out, so I changed them to cousins.

2: The antagonist of this story was supposed to be Hibari Takuya, not Akashi Yuuta.

3: This story wasn't supposed to end like this – it was supposed to end with Akashi joining the mafia.

4: … The smut scene was never supposed to be there.

That's about it, now.

I will come back next month, with a new story of Mukuro x Murasakibara. If I have to say something about the plot… well, let's just say, if Hibari and Akashi's relationship was about hiding it from others, then Mukuro and Murasakibara's is all about showing it to other people. That's all I can say for now… Please check it out, when I publish it!
