Chapter 14

A Kagamine Christmas

Len's Point Of View

Rin and I arrived at Rin's house at around noon. It's the start of Christmas break and Rin's bouncing with excitement. This year is the first year I'm spending with Rin's family so I'm slightly nervous. I mean I've met them all before but Rin's mom is just like her daughter and she'll probably hunt me down just like Rin does and force me into cosplay. I love Rin and everything but that part of her I could do without.

"Hey Len, are you excited about going to my house?" Rin asked as she bounced up and down in the passenger's seat.

"Yeah, a whole weekend with you. It is exciting."

Rin blushed. "I'm looking forwards to it too."

I did my best to focus on the road but Rin was just staring at me with the cutest expression on her face. "What is it?"

"Len, I want to talk to you tonight ok?"

"Why not now?"

"Because now isn't good at all?" She crossed her arms and made a pouty face.

"Fine, as long as you don't dress me in cosplay again. I'm not walking around in cosplay in front of your family."

"Poo" Rin pouted.

"I mean it Rin. I already made a bad impression the last time I saw your parents."

"It wasn't that bad!"

"Your mom found us on the floor on top of each other because you were trying to force me into cosplay."

"Well after we explained it was ok."

I groaned. "That was so embarrassing. I'm a guy Rin. Not a chick."

"I refuse to believe it!"

My eyes went impassive. Why is it that she always refuses to believe I'm a man? I think I would know if I was a girl by now. I'm most defiantly am not a chick. "Refuse all you want but I am a guy."

"Nope. There's no proof."

"I have male parts Rin."

"You could be a Hermaphrodite"

"But I'm not."

"But you could be!"

"But I'm not!"

"So!" Rin crossed her arms and looked out the window.

"Don't pout."

"I'm not pouting" Rin mumbled.

"Why do you even care if I'm a guy or a girl?"

"Because if you were a girl…" She grew quiet. I looked at her out of the corner of my eye. She was pouting again as she looked out the window. At this point, since we were almost there, I left her alone.

When we finally arrived at Rin's house, Nami (Rin's mom) and Rei (Rin's dad) were waiting outside. Honestly, I have no idea where Rin got her blond hair. If it wasn't for Rin's brother and sister (Demo and Kaede) I'd be confused why there's even Blond in her genes since most of her very large family has black hair also.

"Len!" Nami shrieked. She ran over to us and hugged me.

"Daddy!" Rin shrieked. She ran over to Rei and jumped into his arms.

"Oh Len, we missed you! You need to visit more often!" Nami shrieked snuggling me.

I sighed. "Hi Mrs. Kaga."

"Oh please! Call me Nami! You silly boy! Come inside! Demo and Kaede are so excited!"

"Mommy!" Rin shrieked. She hugged her mom.

Rei looked down at me. "You haven't been messing with my daughter have you?"

"She's been messing with me." I mumbled.

Rei smiled is crazy I'm up to something smile. "I bet my girls got some sweet picks of girly Len." He gave me a noogie.

"Rei!" I complained.

"Dad! Hands off my Len!" Rin shrieked pulling me away from him and hugging me. I groaned.

"Aw, can't I mess with him a little?" Rei groaned.

"Why is it that all of you are obsessed with messing with me in some sort of way?"

"Because you're adorable!" Rin and Nami shrieked.

"Because you take things to literally." Rei smiled evilly. "And you always run." He laughed evilly.

"You know the more you do that the more I wish I went home for Christmas." I said nervously.

"Oh please. You're always welcome in our home Len. You're just like family so make yourself at home." Nami said with a smile.

"Come on Len! Let's unpack and then go to some place fun!" Rin shrieked pulling me over to the trunk. I don't like the sound of this. The last time Rin took me somewhere fun; she dragged me into a cosplay store and forced me into terrible outfits.

"And where is this place?"

"Don't worry about it! It'll be super fun!"

"Do I have to" I groaned.

"Of course silly! It's no fun if your not there!"

I blushed a little. Rin's so cute when she talks about me like that but I have a bad feeling that where ever were going, involves me dressing up in something stupid.

"I'll go if there's nothing involving cosplay."

"Why would I take you to somewhere you don't like on vacation?" Rin asked as she opened the trunk.

"So your saying you'd take me to places you want when were not on vacations!"

"Yep! You know why?" Rin hugged me tight. "Because you're so adorable!"

"I'm a guy Rin! Guy's aren't adorable!"

Rin looked at me with confusion. "There not?" She's such an imbecile!

"That's right Rin." Nami said with a look on her face that reminded me of a proper school teacher. Then her eyes turned evil. "There cute!" Nami tackled me to the ground which luckily was on grass and not pavement. Rei, Nami and Rin laughed. And I'm stuck with this for the next week. What am I gonna do?

I didn't see Demo or Kaede until we were leaving to go to where ever Rin's taking me (still scared about that). Demo was sitting on the couch with a laptop typing away. Probably a report for school or something. Kaede sat on the other side of the couch watching T.V. and playing with a scarf around Kaede's neck.

"Hey girly boy" Demo snapped. "Has my sister been bothering you? I could rough her up for you."

"Please do" I moaned. Rin had tackled me to the ground and insisted I wear a dress shirt and pants.

"It's not nice to be mean to our guests Rin" Kaede pointed out.

"Shut up big brother!" Rin complained.

Kaede pouted. "You're so mean to me."

"Don't be such a pansy" Demo snapped. She clipped her hair over her shoulder. "Be a man you pansy. You wonder why you get made fun of in school. Look at what you're wearing. A pink scarf, pink shirt and pink shorts with a stupid bow clip in your hair. Come on Kaede, work with me here."

"I think Kaede looks adorable." Rin chimed in.

"Don't encourage him! It's not good for a man to cross dress!" Demo snapped.

"Let him wear what he wants. It doesn't matter." I said.

"Whatever" Demo mumbled.

"Thanks Len" Kaede said with a smile.

"Come on Len! I want to go right now!" Rin complained.

"Ok ok, I'm going" I waved good by to Demo and Kaede. Demo didn't acknowledge me but Kaede waved good bye.

A few minutes later, Rin was pulling into a go carting track. A really big go carting track. Rin smiled at me as she parked the car.

"Tada! What do you think?" Rin looked at me expectantly.

"Looks like fun." I half smiled.

"Yeah!" Rin hugged me excitedly then jumped out of the car. "Come on Len! Let's go! Let's go!"

"You sound like a child." I chuckled as I got out. She grabbed my arm and practically dragged me inside. There was a bit of a line so Rin sadly agreed to wait. She's not good at standing still though so I'm not sure how long she's gonna agree to sit.

"Hey Len?" Rin asked tilting her head to the side.

"What?" I asked.

"Have your injuries healed?"

"My injuries?"

"You know…when Rook beat you up…there better right?"

I blinked. It's been a while since anyone's talked about it. Honestly, I think everyone's been afraid to talk about. I defiantly never wanted to bring it up again. Especially around Gumi.

From the look on Rin's face, she looks like she's been dying to ask me about this for a while. Rin really isn't good at asking serious questions.

"Yeah, they completely healed a week ago. I think Gumi's the one to worry about. Meiko said her bodies still have some bruise." I answered.

"Yeah it's pretty bad" Rin sighed. "I wish it had been me instead of all you guys. You guys suffered so much for our house." Rin hugged me. "If anything happened to my little Len, I don't know what I'd do."

Beside's the part about her calling me little Len, that was really sweet. Rin can be so selfless sometimes. She really throws everything away to protect her friends. I could tell that what happened ate away at her for a while. She even went so far to change everyone's bandages if they needed. She also insisted on changing mine as much as possible.

"Don't worry about it. It's all over and everything's fine." I hugged her back.

"Aw" someone behind us said. I peeked behind us. It was Piko and Miki. I had no idea they lived in this area. "You two look so cute together. I could just die!" Miki shrieked.

"Miki! Piko!" Rin shrieked. She hugged them both.

"Hey Len" Piko sighed. Miki still had her arm around him like a teddy bear.

"I feel for you man" I said.

"She's a demon" Piko complained.

"I am not! Is it a crime to love you too much?" Miki asked hugging Piko.

"Right now, yes. Were in a public place and you getting close to strangling me." Piko complained.

"So what are you guys doing here?" Miki shrieked.

"Were on a date" Rin shrieked hugging me.

"Who said this was a date?" I yelled.

"I did! Just now!" Rin laughed.

"We are too! Isn't it exciting?" Miki shrieked.

"So exciting!" Rin agreed. The girls began to gossip and finally let us free.

"Maybe if we run we can get away" Piko whispered.

"Not likely. They always find you eventually." I sighed. We both laughed.

"How's vacation so far? Are you staying with Rin or is she staying with you?" Piko asked.

"I'm staying with Rin. She stayed with me last year." I answered. "What about you?"

"I'm staying with Miki and her older sister. She's out working most of the time so I haven't met her yet." Piko sighed. "I bet she's just like Miki. I'm not sure how I'm gonna stand it." Piko groaned. "What about Rin's family?"

"The only one that's normal is Rin's older sister. The rest of her family are just like her."

"I'm sorry" Piko said understanding my pain. "Must have sucked being the only boyish cute guy in the house."

"At least we can share the pain now" I said. We laughed again. "So are you really going on a date?"

"Yeah, she's grown on me. I asked her out after the Christmas party."

"Good. Just don't die on me ok?"

"She won't kill me yet." Piko looked at Miki who was still gossiping excitedly with Rin. "There's just something about her that I like." Piko looked at Rin. "So do you have a thing for Rin?"

"Not sure. I think she's a little too much for me to handle."

"I just thought I'd ask since those big guys over there are walking over to talk to them."

My eyes narrowed. Piko noticed and went on guard. I grabbed Rin's hand and pulled her to me then I glared at the guys. Rin looked at me with confusion.

"It's cool little man." The guy said. He walked away.

"Aw Len!" Rin shrieked hugging me around the waist. "You're so sweet to me!"

"Oh look! We can get tickets now!" Miki shrieked. We all grabbed our tickets then headed out side to the carts. Miki and Piko grabbed on cart while Rin and I grabbed the other cart…Rin insisted on driving. Miki of course was driving in there cart.

"Let's race ok?" Miki called.

"Yeah! You're going down!" Rin yelled giving her an angry face. Then she giggled with excitement.

Miki's eyes turned to devil eyes. "Were gonna kick your asses!" Miki yelled evilly.

"Miki, you're getting yourself worked up." Piko warned trying to calm her down. The light turned Green and both the girls floored it. Both of them whipped around turns and were right on each other until it ended with a tie. Piko and I were hanging onto the carts for dear life until they finally stopped.

"Damn! Ties are no fair!" Miki yelled. "Let's go again!"

"Yeah! No ties!" Rin yelled. Then giggled excitedly.

"Can I get out then?" Piko asked nervously.

"Sit down!" Miki ordered. "How am I gonna win without my good luck charm in my cart? Do you want me to lose, is that what I'm hearing Piko?"

"Of course not!" Piko shrieked. "Good driving!"

"Will that help me win? No!"

Piko nervously looked over at me with fear in his eyes. I gave him a reassuring look then looked at Rin and got ready to ask if I could jump out.

Rin glared at me. "Don't even think about it. Sit down" I sighed and gripped the side of the cart as the light turned green again.

Eventually, after 12 races neither of them won. Every time they tied. Then when we grabbed some pizza they had a pizza eating contest. Then when they tied again they went to the game room and fought each other then. By then Piko and I were exhausted.

"Love them to pieces but I'm so tired of them right now" Piko moaned with his head on a table next to the game room.

"I know" I groaned with my head on the table. "But they are fun to watch." We both looked at them playing some snow boarding game with so much seriousness.

"They really are too much alike." Piko chuckled. "Which one do you think is crazier? Miki or Rin?"

"I don't even know. There such psycho's, I can't even pick."

"I guess so." Piko half smiled. "But you still have to love them."

"They have so much fighting spirit." We laughed.

"No cheating Rin!" Miki complained as she balanced herself on the snowboard machine and swatted at Rin.

"I'm not cheating! I'm playing the game fair and square! You're the one that's cheating!" Rin yelled.

"I am not!" Miki hissed. We laughed as my phone went off.

I answered. "Hello?"

"Len!" Haku yelled.

"Haku? Are you alright?" I asked. Piko suddenly got alarmed. He ran over to the other side of the table and placed his ear against the other side of the phone.

"I'm fine but it's Miku! She's completely unconscious! There was an accident at the Orphanage!" Haku yelled.

"What?" Piko and I yelled. We both looked at each other.

"Is she alright?" I asked.

"Kaito says that the nurse told him she'll be fine but there worried she might be going insane or something!"

"Poor Miku" Piko said with a sad face.

"Should we come out?" I asked.

"It's Christmas break. I wouldn't leave if I were you. It's a long drive anyways. We'll call you if we get anymore information." Haku said.

"How's Kaito?" Piko asked.

"He's holding up…Akaito told me that the reason why she's unconscious is because Kaito slapped her and she connected that with when she was raped by her father." Haku answered.

My eyes widened. "We need to go down to see her" I said getting up.

"Calm down Len. All that'll do is make you wait. She'll be fine by the end of break. The nurse said to many people may overwhelm her. If that wasn't the case I'd force you to come. Were already pushing it with everyone coming as it."

"Call me when she wakes up" I said.

"Me too!" Piko said.

"Will do. Try to keep the girls calm." Haku warned.

"Quick question. Why did Kaito slap Miku? If it's a bad reason I'm gonna beat him up." I warned.

Haku laughed. "Good like with that…" she grew silent. "Kaito saw his mother at the Orphanage."

"So. His mom is really nice." Piko said.

"His real mother." Haku added.

I looked at Piko and he looked shocked and scared at the same time. "Oh." I said.

"He got angry and slapped her in his rage. I don't completely think it's justified but I'm sure Miku won't fault him for it. That is the way Miku is."

"I agree." I sighed. "Just tell Miku to get better soon so Rin won't cry." I gave Piko the phone.

"And tell Miku she better not die cause she owes me five dollars ok?" Piko said. I heard Haku laugh. Seconds later Piko hung up. We both looked at each other.

"Should we tell them now?" I asked.

"It would be bad if they found out later."

"Why don't we just tell them separately? It'll make it easier for us to comfort them."

"That's fine with me."

"Damn! Another tie!" Miki yelled jumping off the machine.

"That's it! I'm calling it!" Rin yelled gripping her head in frustration.

"Were too awesome for all of this!" Miki yelled gripping her head in frustration as well.

I sighed. "Well that sucked all the fun out of it."

"Poor Miku" Piko sighed.

"Might as well smile. They believe she'll be fine." I said.

"I can't" Piko moaned. "Miku's one of my best friends. I can't smile knowing she's unconscious in a hospital somewhere."

"Well your just gonna have to do it." I placed my hand on his shoulder. "She'll be fine. Try to enjoy yourself on Break. Miku will be back just like she would have been after break." Piko nodded then looked at Miki who looked just as frustrated as Rin.

"Len! Can you believe this?" Rin yelled. She groaned and hugged me tight. "This sucks!"

"I know!" Miki moaned hugged Piko.

"Well, we should head back" I told Rin.

"Oh yeah! I distinctly remember my mom saying something about cosplay!" Rin laughed evilly then giggled with excitement.

"Send me pictures girl! Don't leave me hanging!" Miki laughed.

"Please no" I moaned.

"Bye Len! Bye Rin! We must be off! Come on Piko!" Miki began to drag him out of the building. Piko waved good bye with a forced smile on his face.

"Lenny bear? Is Piko alright? He seems unhappy." Rin looked down at me.

"He seemed fine when I talked to him." I half smiled. "Why don't we go home? I'm a little tired."

"Yeah! We can sleep together just like at the sleepover party!"

"This is what I get for going where Rin goes" I mumbled.

"Yeah!" Rin dragged me out of the building with a smile on her face…completely unaware of what's really going on.

When we arrived home Nami greeted us. "Len! I found the cutest thing when I was shopping today! Come try it on! Pretty please!" Nami called with excitement as she jumped up and down happily.

"Why me" I moaned. Rin laughed as she dragged me inside…I guess I can stand what ever Nami picked out this one time.

Minutes later I was dressed, strangely, boy close. She had bought what looked like a male kimono with very bright colors. I think every color was on it with very beautiful designs.

"Isn't it just perfect?" Nami hugged me. "You're like the fourth child I never wanted!"

I half smiled. "Thank you for the Kimono Mrs. Kaga. It's very nice."

"Oh please! You have to call me Nami! Mrs. Kaga is Rei's mother! I'm not that old Len!" she laughed.

"You can't be over 25" I said.

"Bless your heart!" Nami hugged me tight. "You have permission to marry my daughter!"

"Where did that come from?"

Nami turned serious. "Len…do you like my daughter. I just thought I'd ask. It's alright if the answers no."

I blinked. I hadn't been expecting that. Honestly, I know I love Rin but I just can't seem to find the right time to tell her. She always so happy and bubbly…I always feel like turning serious would make her lose that smile and I hate seeing her unhappy. I think it's about time I told her.

"I love Rin more then anything…I just have a hard time finding the right time to tell her." I finally answered.

Nami smiled. "Just tell her. Timing never matters. Rei told me when we were waiting in line to get food at a fast food restaurant."

I chuckled. That sounds too much like Rei. He always tells people stuff at the worst times. He defiantly fits Nami and is defiantly Rin's father. There's too much likeness in this family.

"I think I'll go to bed now but thank you so much Nami."

"Oh you're welcome dear! Just make sure next time you visit you wear it here! You just look to perfect!"

"I promise I will." I turned to leave. "Goodnight."

"Night!"

After getting out of that outfit and into my PJ's, I went into Rin's room. She was sitting on her bed with a serious look on her face. I shut the door and then turned to her. "What's up?"

She got up. "I have something to tell you." Rin looked a little nervous and was fidgeting with her sleeve. Whatever it is, it must be important. Rin doesn't tend to fidget often.

"What is it?"

She nervously walked over to me. She looked at me for a few seconds then hugged me. "I love you Len! I love you so much! I have to know if you love!"

My eyes widened. I hadn't really been expecting it but I knew now was the perfect time to make my own feelings known.

"I love you too Rin."

Rin began to cry but I knew she was crying tears of joy. I pushed back and wiped the tears from her face. "Stop crying. You're mucking up your pretty face. She kissed me quickly.

"I'll I've wanted for the past two years was this moment. You've made me more happy then you know." We spent the night in each others arms. I'll tell her tomorrow.

Tomorrow came too soon and it was even more difficult to tell her. She cried and begged for me to take her to see Miku but eventually she understood that she couldn't go see her for Miku's safety. Rin took it hard all week. She seemed to be slightly less happy then usual until three days later when Kaito called to tell us that Miku was perfectly alright.

The rest of our vacation consisted of opening presents on Christmas day, hiding from Rin and Nami when they tried to put me in Santa cosplay for chicks and eating a big Christmas dinner. It was a lovely Christmas and probably the most fun one I've had in years.

The best part was kissing my beautiful girlfriend under the mistletoe. Best Christmas ever!
