Chapter 14

Aomine stood on defense, blocking the basketball hoop against his greatest opponent, the challenger was currently dribbling with both of his hands on offense. That was to be expected of a 4 year old though, at least he could dribble. The kid was not exactly his toughest foe, but he liked to make the kid think he was.

Akira had grown up. He had soft, silky black hair that was styled similarly to Kise's. He had a dazzling pair of blue eyes which he obviously got from Kuroko. Everything about his face was Kuroko's, nose, cheekbones, ears, everything. The only remnant of Hanamiya was his hair color and his olive skin tone. He was a beautiful child with a can-do attitude.

Akira grew serious, concentration in his eyes as he dribbled around Aomine. Aomine tried to block the kid, but let him go around. Akira stopped at the hoop and picked up his dribble. Aomine picked him up so Akira could slam dunk the ball. He laughed and hugged Aomine's head.

Kuroko walked into the gymnasium which was part of the manor. Kuroko, like the other members of the clan had not aged a day in those four years. He wore black slacks with a blue dress shirt and gray vest.

Akira squirmed, wanting Aomine to put him down.

Aomine laughed and set the kid down.

Akira ran over to his mommy and clung to Kuroko's leg.

Kuroko kneeled down and kissed Akira's forehead. "You need to be good while I am gone with Daddy."

"Where are you going?" Akira asked, pouting.

"It's called a vampire soiree. They have invited Daddy to attend and they requested that I attend as well."

"I wanna go." Akira huffed and crossed his little arms.

Kuroko smiled and fixed Akira's black hair, which was a little messy from playing with Aomine. "There are no basketball courts, you can't go for runs with the pack, and they all drink blood." Mother and son stuck out their tongue and together said, "Ewww."

When Akira was younger, he wanted to try the stuff Daddy always drank. So Kuroko went to town and bought some tomato juice and let his son have some. Ever since, if they mention blood Akira sticks out his tongue and says 'Ewww'.

Akashi walked in dressed a little more formal than his mate. He had on a black suit with a red tie. "Ready?" He asked Kuroko.

Akira switched from clinging to mommy's leg to daddy's. Akashi looked down at his adopted son and picked him up. He threw him up in the air and caught him as his son laughed. "Be good." He kissed his son's cheek. "In case of emergency, what do you do?" He asked.

"Tell Uncle Mido."

"Good, and then?" Akashi asked.

"Do as he says."

"That's my boy." Akashi set Akira down and ruffled his hair.

"We will be back in a few days." Kuroko said to Aomine hoping that Akira would stay with him, but Akira clung to his parents all the way to the front door.

Kiyoshi was on the couch with Hyuuga watching the pack play video games and noticed Akira stuck to Kuroko's leg. He walked over and picked him up, holding him upside down.

Akira giggled and laughed as he struggled to be put back down.

Kiyoshi waved. "Have fun."

Kuroko smiled and waved bye before following Akashi out. Akashi opened the limo door for Kuroko and the two got in.

The driver began to pull out of the driveway as Kuroko sat, looking out the window and wringing his hands.

"Hey, Relax." Akashi said softly and held Kuroko's hands.

"I'm trying, but… Akira has never been left alone before and for three days."

"He is not alone."

"You know what I mean." Kuroko sighed and watched the manor disappear.

The two had grown very attached to Akira, they loved him and Kuroko was constantly worried about him.

Akashi wrapped an arm around Kuroko. "I think you worry too much."

"And I don't think you worry enough."

"I worry." Akashi said, "But he is in good hands." Akashi kissed Kuroko. "Just don't think about that, this weekend it's just you and me."

"And a group of vampires." Kuroko corrected.

"I meant… in the bedroom, it will be just you and me. No four year old wanting to sleep with us because he had a nightmare or having to wake up in the middle of the day to look for monsters in his closet."

Kuroko laughed, Akira did keep them on their toes, but they liked it. It kept them busy.

"And… I have been thinking about how much I am ready for us to have one of our own." Akashi said softly.

Kuroko blushed. "You want to have a baby with me?"

"Yes, I want to try, if you want to that is." Akashi admitted.

"I… I can't believe I am actually about to say this." Kuroko muttered and cleared his throat. "Akashi, I want to get pregnant with your child."

Akashi kissed Kuroko. "It's official then. And I refuse to go home until I have officially impregnated you."

Kuroko blushed.

"We will go on an extended vacation if we need to."

"What do you mean?" Kuroko asked.

"We will go some place, maybe Hawaii or something. Wherever you want." Akashi said.

Kuroko blushed.

"I would do anything for you Kuroko, and I hope you know that." Akashi said softly, holding his mate.

Kuroko smiled and kissed Akashi. "I do know that."

A/N: I have officially achieved a goal which I am so proud of. I have completely gone a month, updating a fanfiction every day! I am so proud of myself! Anyway, the note here is not to brag, but that I am going to slow down a bit. I won't be updating everyday, but I will update periodically. Don't be alarmed, I update frequently as you can see from my other fanfictions. I just wanted to inform everyone and give them a heads up so they are not shocked if I don't update the next day. Thank you all who have been reading and reviewing my work frequently. Please send me a message of what you would like to see in the future, because I do run out of ideas. They can be things as simple as dates. Thank you!
