Dissociation

Chapter Nine

-Family Breakfast-

Akito woke up the next morning to the feeling of something soft and warm pressed against him, and the smell of cherry blossoms. He smiled, nuzzling the source before slowly opening his eyes. "Natsumi…" he kissed her neck. "Time to get up."

"No." she pouted.

"Well…" he trailed off, kissing lower on her neck. "I'm going to go get a quick shower, and if you aren't up by the time I get out, I'm going to make you wet, and you won't like this kind." He threatened, pulling away from her with a smirk.

"Meh." She made a face at him without opening her eyes.

"Or you could join me, and we can save water. Your pick." He kissed her forehead before getting out of the bed and walking over to his bag in order to get what he would need.

She sighed. "Man I forgot how much you talk in the mornings." She smiled slightly. "I showered last night but go right ahead. But you better hurry. Hayate always comes in the morning on Sundays and crawls into bed with me for an hour or so."

"Alright." He went into the bathroom and shut the door behind him. Not ten minutes later he came back out, fully dressed in some casual jeans and a black shirt, to see Natsumi still in bed. He smiled deviously before running and jumping up onto the bed, landing next to her in a sitting position, the force of his impact causing her to bounce.

She yelped, her eyes flashing open in alarm as she crashed back into the mass of sheets and pillows and pulled herself from the heap. "What the hell is wrong with you crazy!" she yelled, glaring up at him.

He burst into laughter. "Sorry, I just couldn't resist. You never were much of a morning person though."

"Exactly! So shut up and leave me alone you weird ball of sunshine." She grumbled, crawling back under her covers and making a somewhat cave like cocoon, now gone from the visible eye. Akito blinked and leaned closer to the dark entrance.

"Natty," he called sweetly, snaking his hand into the darkness and trying to feel for her. "AH!" he actually yelled, jerking his hand back and stroking the bite mark. "You bit me!" All he heard as a reply was a low hiss like a deadly snake.

His eyes narrowed, and before she knew what was happening, Akito got off the bed, picked up a corner of the comforter, and dove underneath the covers, sliding right next to her in the darkness. He began to growl as he reached out and started to tickle her, the two of them engaging in a tussle as she hissed and he growled. Suddenly they both froze when the bed bounced and something landed on top of Akito, who was on top of Natsumi.

"Get off my mommy you monster!" Hayate's voice yelled, and then Akito started to get hit. It wasn't too bad, until he was hit in the back of the head.

"Ow! Hayate!" he sat up, the covers and the small boy falling off of him. "It's just me." He said, ignoring the fact that he was now straddling Natsumi. Hayate's eyes widened, and then he smiled joyfully.

"Daddy!" he squealed, getting up and jumping on his father, knocking him sideways and onto the other side of the bed. "I missed you so much!" he said, hugging Akito around the neck.

"I missed you too squirt." Akito chuckled, returning his son's embrace and sitting back up. He looked over at Natsumi, and his smile widened. Discreetly, so that Hayate wouldn't notice, he reached out and pulled the material to the top of her nightgown back over her breast, which had become exposed in their tussle.

Natsumi pulled the covers back over her body and smiled at the two, enjoying how much love she saw between them. Hayate pulled away from Akito then and looked at Natsumi. "Hi mommy! You look happy this morning." He commented. "Is it cause' daddy's here?"

"Maybe." She whispered, glancing up at Akito and then reaching her hands out for her son. He gladly broke from Akito's embrace and snuggled with her beneath the covers. "Did you sleep well my little one?" she asked, nuzzling him and showing him all her love.

"Yes I did. I had a dream that I had super powers and put bad people in jail like daddy does!" he smiled happily. "I want to be just like daddy when I grow up."

Akito's eyes widened, and then softened. "You can someday if you work really hard." He stroked his son's head. "But you can't forget about the important stuff, like family."

"I won't. I promise." Hayate nodded.

"Love is the most important thing." Natsumi corrected, kissing Hayate's cheek.

"Yes mommy." He snuggled against her. Then he reached over and grabbed Akito's hand. "Daddy, you cuddle too." He ordered, yanking.

"Okay." Akito said, somewhat startled. He lay down and wrapped his arms around the two under the covers, so that Hayate was between them. The little boy smiled and wriggled a little bit.

"Now I'm surrounded by love!" he declared.

Akito smiled softly at his son. "Yes, you are."

"So much love." Natsumi caressed his face, letting her feet tangle with Akito's. They heard the door creak open wider, and the sound of feet padding across the floor. Wordlessly, Sanosuke crawled up onto the bed. Akito raised his arm, and Sanosuke squeezed between him and Hayate, cuddling his little brother.

"This is nice." He sighed as Akito's arm was draped over him.

Natsumi laughed and smiled at her son, feeling another dip in the bed, Kaname and Izayoi peered over the mass and brightened excitedly. "How come everyone's in mom's bed?" Kaname asked moving between his two brothers. Izayoi did the same between Kaname and Sanosuke.

"Good thing you have a king sized bed mom." Izayoi said, smiling blissfully.

"Well," Hayate said, perking up. "I came in to snuggle with mommy, but I heard growling and hissing, so I thought she was being attacked. So I jumped on the monster under the covers, and it was daddy!" he smiled. "He and mommy were playing, and then we started snuggling, and then Sanosuke came in, and then you two. Now everybody's together."

"Were you guys having sex?" Kaname asked, seeing his mother's night gown.

"No. I was trying to get you mom out of bed and she bit me, and the fight was on." Akito said.

Izayoi laughed. "Mom never gets up this early!"

"I know, but I like to torture her." Akito smiled. "Don't I Natty?" he asked, rising a bit to look over at her.

She stuck her tongue out at him. "Don't make me bite you again Akki."

"Grouch."

"I'm hungry." All four of the kids said together, their stomachs growling simultaneously.

"Then go get out all Mommies' normal breakfast things and close the door." She told them.

They all looked at each other and shivered before breaking from their spots and heading out the door, closing it behind them. Akito sat up and stretched before looking down at her. "How did you sleep last night?" he asked.

"Better than I have in probably ten years." She sighed, but it was happy.

"Good." He smiled and kissed her forehead. "I love you."

She smiled back, placing her hands on his shoulders. "I love you too Akito."

"So…what's for breakfast?" he asked, remaining over her.

"Me." She whispered softly, moving one of her hands from his shoulder and pushing the straps of her nightgown down so that her breasts were just barely covered with the lacy fabric.

"Hm…" he dipped his head and began to kiss her collar, moving down her chest. He pushed aside the top, flicking his tongue over her nipple before sucking it into his mouth. "Tasty." He said against the sensitive flesh.

Natsumi moaned softly, there was just something about being exposed to him that turned her on. "Oh Akito." She moved against him. "You make me feel like a horny school girl."

"You just make me feel like a horn dog." He said, moving over to the other breast. "I remember when I made you dress up in your old school uniform for me so we could have sex on my desk in the study as I played the principle."

"It was so tight I couldn't button the shirt up fully anymore." She breathed out. "But the best was when we did it on that trampoline senior year." She moaned just thinking about it.

"Yeah with that extra bounce to it." he began to pull down the dress slowly, kissing along her stomach as he went. "Or when we used the kid's little plastic pool and had a whipped cream and chocolate syrup fight and I got to lick it all off of you."

"Oh God yes." She shivered with delight. "That was amazing and so sticky. Or that time in your father's bed, the only time you didn't come inside of me on purpose." She snickered.

"He's still pissed at me for that." He said, pulling off the dress fully and then her underwear. "But it was so worth it." He parted her legs and dipped his head, licking at her eagerly.

She gasped, biting down on her index finger to silence herself so the children wouldn't hear. "Mmm, Akito it's been so long since you've done this to me."

"Too long if you ask me." He murmured, circling her clit with his tongue and sliding two fingers into her, moving them slowly to increase her torture. She bucked her hips against his fingers, pushing them further into her folds.

"Sometimes I'm surprised…" she panted out. "That I was lucky enough to get pregnant in college instead of high school. Considering all the times we did it so carelessly."

"Me too." He pulled away from her, removing his hand so that he could take his shirt off. Then he undid his pants and slid them down to his knees along with his boxers. "But a condom just takes away from the pleasure for me." He said, positioning himself before slowly sliding into her tightness. "Oh yeah." He whispered, clenching his jaw. "I can feel you squeezing me a lot better this way." He slid almost all the way out before slamming back into her.

She couldn't help but scream out at the sudden force. "God Akito!" she yelled, throwing her head back. She tried to move against him in attempts to speed up his slow and torturous pace. "You always feel so good inside of me." She moaned, arching her back for him.

"You always feel so great when I'm inside you." He said softly, continuing to go slowly. He began to kiss her neck, nipping every so often. "I missed you." He said against her skin.

"I know." She giggled, laughing when he bit down on her tickle spot. "Akito!" she gasped out, bursting into laughter since he continued to tickle her, because it caused her to tense, and her body tightened around him more so with her haggard breathes and laughs. "Stop! It tickles!" she jerked into him, making an odd sound between a moan and a laugh.

"If that's what you want." He said, pulling away so that he could look down into her face. "Do you also want this?" he asked as he pulled out of her almost fully, slamming back into her suddenly and causing her to gasp at the feeling. He pulled out again, repeating his actions.

She nodded quickly, biting down on her lower lip to silence her loud noises of bliss. "Y-yes." She managed out and was able to hold in a moan, meeting his hips and slamming against him. He increased his pace slightly, groaning at the feel. He held her closer to him, so that their breaths began to mingle as they panted almost in sync. And finally, as if their bodies were still in-tune with one another they released, trying to be as silent as possible, even though their children probably already knew what they were doing.

Natsumi leaned up and kissed him deeply. She wrapped her arms around him, enjoying the feel of him being inside of her. "I love you Akki." She whispered lovingly.

"I love you too Natty." He said, nuzzling her affectionately before kissing her.

"I just can't ever seem to get away from you." She smiled against his lips.

He chuckled, kissing her once more. "Good. Because now that I have you, I'm never letting you go again." He rested his forehead against hers.

"Promise?"

"I promise, with all my heart. I want to be a family again." He murmured.

She lifted her hand and touched his cheek. "I can't take that abandonment again."

"I can't take you and the kids leaving me again." He rubbed his cheek into her hand.

"Well then," she smirked. "I suggest you don't do the first then."

"I won't." he smiled and kissed her. "We should probably get dressed and feed the kids." He sighed, not wanting to leave her warmth.

She pushed him off and nodded, the thought of her kids finally reentering her mind. "Right, well I'm too tired from you slamming into me to move. So you're going to have to dress me." She snickered.

"Well I'm too tired from the exertion of slamming into you that I don't think I can dress myself." He said, lying on his back next to her.

"So you will let our children starve?" she arched a delicate brow, looking over at him.

He sighed as he got off the bed, pulling up his pants and fixing them before picking up his shirt and putting it on. Then he looked down at her gloriously naked body. "So…what do you want to wear today?"

She shrugged, stretching languidly, loving how she could still hold his eye. "I dunno, surprise me. But I better look amazing."

He smiled before walking back into her closet and looking around. He pulled out some silky red underwear and a matching bra for her to wear, just picturing her in it. Then, since it was a Sunday and he knew she would want to be comfortable, he took out a pair of her yoga pants and a red tank top so that the straps of her top would match her bra. Not only did the outfit look amazing, but it would allow him to admire her body all morning.

Picking everything up, he carried it into the bedroom and laid it on the bed. He grabbed the underwear and slid it onto her, lifting her hips so that it was on her fully. He stayed over her, looking down at her. "I'm so reluctant to cover you up you know." He said, glancing down at her chest.

"I bet you are naughty boy." She blew him a kiss, resting her hands above her head. "But my babies are hungry."

"Yeah, yeah." He sighed, grabbing the bra he had picked and putting it on her. "Arch your back so I can hook it." he ordered. She did as she was told and arched her back and allowed him to hook her bra back on.

Then he picked up the yoga pants and put them on her before grabbing her tank top and doing the same. When he was finished he smiled down at her. "All done. Is this outfit acceptable to you?"

"Yup." She offered her hand up. He took it and helped her up from her bed. "Let's go have some breakfast." She smiled and walked out of the bedroom, joining her children in the kitchen, which had everything prepared. "Hi my loves! You ready for a massive breakfast?" she clapped her hands together.

"Are you and daddy done playing your game?" Hayate asked, smiling at his parents.

The corner of Akito's mouth lifted. "Yes Hayate. And I want you to know that daddy won." He ruffled his son's hair, making him giggle.

Natsumi smacked the back of Akito's head and rolled her eyes. "Please," she snickered. "I was the one who was satisfied. So I win." She snickered and cracked open two eggs expertly. "Now why don't you kids go out back and play with your dad while I cook. I'll call you when it's ready."

With a loud cheer all four kids ran out and Akito followed. They played tag until Natsumi called them back in and they all enjoyed their first meal together. Finally, the doorbell rang and Toshiro arrived on time to pick the kids up to take them to the zoo. Akito and Natsumi waved goodbye and both looked confused when Toshiro came back in and passed them.

"What are you doing?" Natsumi asked, watching her brother case the house and then pack up all the knives and sharp utensils in a safe box.

He came back and gave them both a smile. "You know, just in case." He waved and then hurried out. "Try not to kill each other and play nice!" he called over his shoulder before getting in his car and driving away.

"Well…I wasn't really planning on playing mean, or killing you." Akito looked at Natsumi. "Were you?"

"No." she blinked. "Though…" she looked away then. "I'm sorry…you know…for getting you arrested."

"Hey," he reached out and gently grasped her chin, turning her head to look at him. "Don't worry about it. I should have taken the kids home before you got there, so that you weren't worried. I just…missed them so much, and I wanted to spend as much time with them as I could."

"But why would you do that?" she trembled, finally showing her fear since she had yet to allow her feelings to be out. "Why would you kidnap them? And make me worry, I was days away from asking you to come and see them. But with Hayate you can see how scared I was."

"I know." He cupped her cheek. "And I'm sorry. I wasn't really thinking about things that way and you have to remember, I didn't know about Hayate until I showed up at the school to get them. And so I wanted to spend as much time with him as I could so that I could get to know him, and Sanosuke didn't really remember me…" he sighed and pressed his forehead against hers. "I didn't mean to make you freak out like that."

"Really?" she gave him a small glare. "So you thought that I wouldn't care enough about my babies to wonder where they were? And you had Toshiro lie to me?" She began to cry. "When the school said that they were picked up by an attractive dark haired man in a Lamborghini, I knew it was you, so I sent the police to your house. I was so mad. And I don't know why I said that, I just couldn't control myself." She sobbed.

"I'm sorry." He wrapped his arms around her and held her against his chest. "You know how I don't think about stuff sometimes."

"But taking them?" she collapsed against him. "I wanted to tell you about him. But…you would have killed me, and we were having such a nice night."

He laid his head on top of hers. "I honestly don't know what I would have done." He said. "I would have been furious, yes, but eventually I would have wanted to meet him."

"Well…so…you're not mad?" she asked, staring at his chest.

"Not anymore." He began to rub her back. "I'm actually the happiest I've been in years." He smiled.

She smiled and then it slowly turned to a frown. "I haven't made you happy in nearly a decade."

"No, I haven't allowed myself to be happy in nearly a decade. You just didn't make me happy for half of it." he somewhat joked, pulling back and looking down at her. "But I still love you."

"Do you?" she asked seriously, searching his gaze. "I know you enjoy my body. You always have. But love and lust are two very different things."

"Natsumi, I have always loved you." He cupped her cheek. "I love your smile and your laugh, how you brighten up a room with just your presence, and the way you put people in their place. When something is bothering me, you're the only one I willingly go to talk about it. You are the only one who can put up with me, and the only one I can picture myself growing old with. It always has been, and always will be that way."

She placed her hands over his and held them to her cheeks, allowing her tears to fall. "I love you Uchiha Akito."

"And I love you, Uchiha Natsumi." He kissed her sweetly then. She kissed him back, leaning into him.

"Well. Since the kids are going to be out all day and we have the house to ourselves…" she trailed off, giving him a devious smirk.

He returned her smirk with one of his own. "Wanna go and…" he gave her body a once over. "Give each other massages? I saw that stash of stuff in your bathroom earlier, and it gave me some great ideas."

"I always liked your ideas." She snickered. Akito took her up in his arms and carried her back to the bedroom, closing her door with his foot to begin their day of fornicating.
