"SUNAKO-TAAAN!"
"Oof!"
"I thought you died!" Gin bawled in her ear while Yae wiped her nos – wait a minute...
"You're not Sunako-tan," Yae pulled her face away from the blonde hair of the teen she had tackled.
"Oh yeah?" Kyohei snapped as he sat up and rubbed the back of his head.
"What are you doing in Sunako-tan's house?" Yae asked. Then she smiled in understanding. "Oh, you must be her man,"
"Are you here to hump like bunnies?" Gin gazed curiously at the teenage boy. "Yuri's big brother told me that that's what people who like each other do,"
"Ugh," Kyohei gave the twins a disdainful look and walked off into the lavish foyer. "Oi! Nakahara! Get your ass down here. You have company,"
The three blondes heard shuffling footsteps and then the girl in question walked in.
"Wha – how did you get into my house?" Sunako said as she eyed the golden-haired trio suspiciously.
"Gin picked the lock," Yae said.
"Gin! Who taught you that?" Sunako stalked towards the little rascal with a frown.
"Um," He blinked. "You did,"
"I did? Why would I do that? Don't lie. If you lie, I'll set your pants on fire and make you wear them,"
"Not again!" Gin cried in dismay.
"Ow!" Sunako glared at the tall boy, who had the gall to swat her on the head with a stack of paper.
"Here," Kyohei shoved said stack of paper into her face, not caring when she almost dropped them. Jerk. "You were absent yesterday and today, so here's the make-up work,"
He studied her face intently and grabbed her chin to tilt her face this way and that. Her skin was pale, but it always was. She ought to go out more. "Hm. You don't look like you're sick,"
"See? I told you that he's her man," Yae murmured to Gin as they watched.
Sunako moved her face out of his hand and flipped her hair back. So sassy, Kyohei thought as he glared at her long hair. "I was having family issues,"
"Make me lunch. You owe me for the past two days and for bringing this shit here for you," He said, curling a finger around a lock of her hair and tugging on it.
"If that's what you're here for, then why are you two here?" Sunako switched her attention to the twins and swatted his hand away. The Tomoyas had moved to the living room slash lounge area.
"You two, huff, never wait for me! Huff!" Another blonde person appeared in her home. Yuki walked in panting and looking appropriately sheepish. "Sorry, Sunako. For, um, coming over without calling. But the emergency at school happened so suddenly I didn't have time,"
"Emergency at school?" Sunako raised a brow.
Kyohei flopped down on a chaise chair. "It's why we were let out early today. All of the teachers -"
"Mercy, don't even speak of it!" Yuki cried and put his hands over his ears.
"Never forget," Kyohei said with a solemn nod and a shudder.
"So much...so much...it was everywhere!" Yuki shivered.
"Never trust Ito-sensei with silver Sharpie. Never get in Sakamoto-sensei's way when he wants some," Kyohei hugged himself as he trembled. "Anyway," He swept his bangs out his face coolly, regaining composure rather quickly. "The teachers are all under investigation, so until it's over, we're on vacation,"
"Wha-," Sunako looked between the two boys in bewilderment. "investigation for what-"
"Shh," Kyohei stood swiftly and clamped a hand over her mouth. "Don't speak of it. Ever,"
Sunako bit his palm and he shrieked and swiped her saliva on her shirt. He yanked her hair, which initiated face-scratching and hissing ("Bitch don't pull my hair!")
The Toyamas watched the interaction with growing indifference.
"Anyway," Yuki launched into an explanation. "The kindergarten teachers at the twins' kindergarten are also under investigation and my parents have work and well, I can't handle these two on my own so I was wondering if we could stay here until school starts again,"
"Yeah, that's fine," Sunako delicately smoothed her hair, finishing her fight with Kyohei. "It's not like I haven't had slumber parties with the twins before,"
The twins perked at the words "slumber parties."
Sunako stood aloofly by the window and clicked her heels together. "Gin. Yae. At attention," She commanded.
The twins immediately went before her, much to Yuki's amazement.
"Ma'am?" Yae saluted.
"Recite standard slumber party protocol,"
"Food preparation, recreational activities, bath time, and nap time," they chorused.
"Excellent. Dismissed,"
Yae and Gin turned heel and marched behind Sunako into the kitchen.
"H-How did she do that?" Yuki's jaw opened and then closed, too amazed to form words. "Is...Is this what they do when they're here every week?" He whispered nervously.
"Somehow I'm not surprised," Kyohei said faintly and turned on the television. Considering that it was Sunako...who the hell would leave their kids with her anyway? Whatever. He was laid out comfortably on the lounge chair, feet up and arms behind his head. Yuki was still standing and fidgeting a bit.
"Um, Kyohei-san?"
"Kyohei," He corrected without looking at the smaller boy.
"Right, Kyohei. We met at the hospital?" Yuki said it like it was a question.
Kyohei shifted his gaze to him and cocked a brow. Yuki looked away, feeling intimidated as he tried to initiate a conversation with the other teen.
"Um, so..." Yuki said, squirming at the awkwardness.
Kyohei's attention went back to the television.
"So do you like..." Yuki squinted at the screen and watched in horror when a lioness mauled a peacefully grazing gazelle. "Uh..."
"Sit down, you weenie." Kyohei muttered.
llllllllll
"When I grow up, I'm going to be just like Sunako-tan," Yae declared dreamily as she shaped a rice ball in her gloved hands.
Gin looked at her fearfully. "J-Just like her?"
Yae grinned maliciously and stuffed in a pickled plum. "Just like her,"
"You said you wanted to become a tuna!" Gin whined.
"Gin, it's okay for dreams and ambitions to change," Sunako said over her shoulder as she fried some shrimp.
"W-What are Sunako-tan's dreams?" Gin blinked owlishly up at her.
Sunako paused and set down her cooking utensil. "Hm, well, now that I think about it..."
"Sunako-tan's already perfect. She doesn't need dreams," Yae said matter-of-factly.
Sunako tapped her chin, then nodded. "I can go with that. 10 points for Yae,"
"Yay!"
Gin's eyes watered. "B-But what about my points?"
"Sit down, you weenie," Yae and Sunako said coldly.
"B-But I am sitting?"
"Sunako!" Another whining voice came from the kitchen entrance.
"Yuki-tan is crying," Yae said.
"Oh my Buddha," The dark-haired girl plated the last tempura shrimp before turning to the eldest Toyama. She addressed him with an impatient "What?"
"Kyohei is being mean!" Yuki lunged for her shoulder and stuck his crying face there. "He said he would change the channel if I beat him at arm wrestling but then he put me in a headlock!"
"Does it really take that long to roll some rice balls?" Kyohei swaggered in. His eyes lit up at the plate next to Sunako. "Ooh, shrimp,"
Sunako walked calmly to Yae and took the proffered rice ball. Then she walked back to Kyohei, slapped his hands away from the shrimp, and shoved the rice ball in his face.
A tense silence fell over the five minors.
Then, "There's too much vinegar in this," Kyohei picked the rice off of his puckered face. He grabbed the half-formed rice ball from Gin...
And flung it at Sunako's head.
"FOOD FIGHT!" Yae cried and lunged for the fridge.
Yuki ran to the table and ripped a banana off of the bunch and held it defensively.
"Get the wasabi, Yae!" cried Sunako.
"Duck, Sunako-tan!" Yae used the fridge door as a shield as Gin aimed a can of tuna at her. "Natto incoming!"
Sunako yelped as she barely dodged the sticky, smelly fermented soybeans hitting the cabinet above her head and dripping onto the counter and floor. Kyohei cackled gleefully.
Gin backed into the table, screaming at Yae's egg barrage, and knocked the soy sauce and vinegar onto the floor.
Yuki cried and held onto the banana for dear life.
Gin squealed and slipped on the vinegar-soy sauce mess.
"Eat this, you worm!" Yae yelled and scooped a fistful of wasabi and hurled it at Kyohei.
Sunako raided the fridge and spotted her tub of green tea ice cream. Take one for the team, good friend, Sunako stroked the ice cream tub fondly.
"I wonder if they'll know if it's ice cream or if it's wasabi since they're both green and have similar textures!" Yae said with a devilish gleam in her eyes.
"Let them figure it out," Sunako grinned and tore the lid off of the ice cream.
Meanwhile, Kyohei was screaming in pain and clawing the wasabi out of his eyes. He blindly managed his way to the counter and groped around until he found a container. "Panko?" He pried his eye open to read the label and laughed maniacally.
Kyohei's elbow accidentally brushed against the handle of the pan filled with sizzling oil from frying the shrimp. Lucky bastard that he was, he obliviously walked away before the pan crashed onto the floor.
Yuki and Gin cried and clung to each other as the girls alternated between wasabi and green tea ice cream.
"That's what you get for wetting the bed and making my cuttlefish plushie dirty with your pee!" Yae yelled vindictively at her twin and dished out the wasabi.
Sunako saw Kyohei approaching with the panko breadcrumbs. He still couldn't see properly because of the wasabi on his face so the sole brunette kicked a chair and watched it skid into him.
"Goddammit Nakahara!" Kyohei snarled as he slipped on the oil-vinegar-soy-bah, who's counting what the hell was on the floor at this point! Kyohei fell on his backside and catapulted the panko container into the air.
It would be pretty, Sunako thought, if only the breadcrumbs didn't stick to every damp surface in the kitchen.
"I am not a weenie!" Gin cried and grabbed fistfuls of grapes and threw them blindly. "Give me that!" He snapped at his older brother and mashed the banana into Yuki's terrified face.
Kyohei was staring up at the ceiling, blinded by the ceiling light and delirious from the wasabi and the pain.
"Eep!" A feminine yelp, followed by a body crashing into his.
He recognized the scent of her hair as it swept over his face. Without thinking, he had his hands around her waist to steady her. Her face was in his chest, where his heart was starting to beat quicker. For some reason. He held her waist and then his hands absentmindedly moved down to her hips.
Sunako was reeling at the scent of wasabi and liquid condiments so close to her face. Her attention snapped towards the long fingers digging into her hips. Her mind went blank as she realized who she was lying on. Sunako's pulse drummed loudly in her ears when he rolled over her. His nose bumped clumsily against hers and she held her breath. Bronze eyes were half-lidded as he watched her under him.
"You get away from Sunako-tan, you rakish fiend!" Yae upturned the sake onto Kyohei's head. Brown eyes widened at Sunako as the sake ran off of him and onto her. "Pervert," Smack. "pervert!" Smack. "PERVERT -"
Ding dong!
The young blonde girl stopped thrashing the bottle against the older blonde's head. "I'll get it!" Yae skipped away, swinging the empty sake bottle. Kyohei's eyes rolled back and he fainted on Sunako.
"You're the weenie. Who's the weenie? Who's the weenie?"
"I-I'm the weenie! Please stop beating me with your juice box, Gin."
Meanwhile, Yae reached the front door and opened it. Two teenagers, both with reddish hair and sunglasses, stared at the five year-old with the empty sake bottle in her hand for a beat, before smiling at her.
"Hi there! I'm Nono and this is Rei," The pretty girl said. Yae stared at the cardboard box in her arms. "Our dog had puppies, so we were wondering if you wanted to adopt one,"
"Puppies?" Yae peered into the box. Five squirming, furry things were whimpering and pawing at each other. She narrowed her eyes at the two. "You think I want a puppy?"
Nono tilted her head slightly, smiling confusedly. "Um. Yes?"
"So you think just because I'm a little girl I want a puppy? Can't I have any other interests besides in cute things?"
Nono shot the red-headed boy a confused look.
"No, not at all," Nono said quickly, trying to mollify the little one. "It doesn't have to be for you! You can get one for someone else who likes puppies. Someone in your family maybe. Maybe his name rhymes with Muki Moyama. Maybe he should come over and take a look,"
"Look, I don't know any Muki Moyama, but I think I need an adult,"
"I am an adult. What's up, Yae?" Auntie appeared. She glanced at the teens and furrowed her brows at them. "Aren't you two -"
"Look, puppies!" Nono squeaked and thrust the box into Auntie's face.
"Oh my!"
Yae scoffed and crossed her arms. "Hmph. If you were trying to kidnap me, you should have tried bringing me a giant squid or a dolphin,"
"Abort mission," Nono hissed at the boy.
"I'll take all of them," Auntie said happily.
Nono shoved the box into Auntie's arms. "Take 'em! Bye!"
Auntie watched the retreating red-heads closely. "Hm. They couldn't possibly be..." She looked down at the box of puppies and cooed at their furry white faces, completely distracted from finishing her thought. "How cute! Out you go,"
She lifted each one out of the box and set them down. The puppies whined and snuffled the floor. Every single puppy head turned sharply at the scent of food coming from...that way! They raced towards the kitchen, unaware of the paradise awaiting them.
"Always telling me to eat my vegetables, but you never eat yours either," Gin angrily snapped a leek over his knee and held it threateningly at his big brother's throat.
"Leave me alone!" Yae screeched at the puppy licking her ankle.
"Leave me alone!" Sunako screeched at Kyohei, who was eating his way through her green tea ice cream barrage. She crawled backwards on the floor and flung the frozen confectionery up at the predatory look on his face.
A smiling Auntie looked at the scene then promptly walked back upstairs.
"Puppies! So I'm not in hell?" Yuki looked on in wonder. The puppies were licking everything. Everywhere. Everyone.
"My fingers are not for eating!" Sunako furiously struggled against Kyohei's grip on her wrists as he licked ice cream off of her hands. He stopped when he felt a tongue on his ankle. Sunako looked down.
The puppy made a delighted high-pitched noise and nipped at him. Kyohei lifted it by its scruff and let it lick the wasabi off of his cheek.
"I'm no expert at dogs, but I don't think they're suppose to eat that," Sunako told him pointedly, one wrist still in his hand. She glanced around. "Or that. Or that. Or that,"
Gin and Yae stood on the kitchen island holding a pumpkin together. They were smiling. Yuki was hiding under the table, hugging himself and rocking back and forth.
"Uh oh," Kyohei grimaced and snuggled the puppy to his chest for comfort.
The twins dropped the pumpkin.
It broke, stringy, wet innards exploding.
"Gin, Yae," Sunako said wearily, wiping her forehead with the hand not covered in Kyohei's saliva. "100 points. You two win,"
"Yay!"
llllllllll
"It's peeing on itself," Yae said in disgust.
"Puppies don't lift their legs when they're this young," Yuki said, cradling two squirming, yipping puppies in his arms.
"Ugh. Yuki-tan, I want a shark,"
"Alright, maggots," Sunako was back in Commander Mode. The four blondes were lined up in the backyard, Kyohei picking at his nails and the Toyamas shuffling nervously in the freshly cut grass under Sunako's glare and the garden hose she was holding menacingly. "Who wants bath time first? How about the maggot who started this?"
"I'm pretty sure your maggot ass started this," Kyohei flicked the anchovies out of his hair in annoyance.
"Yae called it," Gin said moodily, shuffling his feet.
"The puppies pooped everywhere," Yae despaired.
"I-I need an adult," Yuki shivered, clearly traumatized.
"I am an adult," Sunako shot a stream of water at the puppies in Yuki's arms as he screamed. "Practically, anyway. Where the Buddha did they," Here she gestured at the puppies with the hose (menacingly). "come from anyway?"
"Long story," Yae replied shortly.
Sunako nodded. "Good answer."
The puppies keened at Sunako's water torture. Yuki was rocking back and forth again and mumbling something about how this was exactly how the incident at school was like, Yae and Gin were helping her wash the puppies, and Kyohei was on drying duty.
Kyohei stood up with a mischievous smile. He peeled off his dirty shirt and flung it onto Sunako's head. While she was disoriented, the heartthrob stole the garden hose from her and took aim. He wished her dress had been white.
"Woo! 100 points for Kyohei-kun!" Yae chimed, squealing in delight when he then turned on her and Gin with the hose.
Sunako wriggled her head out of the filthy thing on her head. She ground her teeth at her soaked dress and started wringing the skirt.
"That was fun," Yuki had snapped out of his trauma (or chose to repress the memories) and was smiling brightly now. "But are you really going to keep five puppies?"
"No," Sunako said. "I ain't taking care of them and neither will Auntie, no matter what she says otherwise,"
"We don't have much of choice then, other than trying to get them adopted," said Yuki.
"After cleaning up, bathing, and laundry," she said.
Sunako was trying not to stare at Kyohei. Still chasing down the twins. Still shirtless.
"Listen up, you filthy maggots," Sunako said. "Get back inside. It's cleaning time."
lllllllllll
So it was like Sunako had said it would be. The puppies dried off in the sunlight back in their cardboard box in the backyard.
They tackled the slippery kitchen floor, then they cleaned off every surface. By the time the kitchen was spotless, the guests at the Nakahara residence were drained physically, psychologically (Yuki and Gin), and emotionally (again,Yuki and Gin).
The teenage boys were sprawled, with muscles spasms here and there, on the kitchen floor, fingers wrapped around cleaning cloths and bottles of cleaner.
Sunako and the twins were headed to the bathroom. They stripped and dumped their clothes into the washing machine before they washed and soaked in the tub.
Gin was looking contemplatively at a rubber ducky. "Sunako-tan," he asked. "Can I stop being a weenie if I become friends with Kyohei-tan? He's so manly,"
Sunako, not really wanting to answer nor enter this strange territory that Gin was in ever since the food fight, gave a non-committal, "Yes."
Yae snickered in between making dolphin sounds. "I bet Kyohei-tan was like you before he became Sunako-tan's man,"
Gin's eyes glittered. "So does that mean if I become Sunako-tan's ma-"
"No."
"Okay."
lllllllll
Kyohei mustered up the energy to drag himself over to the plate of shrimp tempura that had survived the food war. It was cold, but that didn't stop the shrimp-eating fiend from eating it all.
"Won't that give you a stomach ache?" Yuki croaked from his spot on the floor.
"Shut up," Kyohei said. His attention had gone to the sound of splashing and dolphin noises coming from the bathroom.
He stalked towards the washing machine and took off his pants. The screen door leading to the bathroom showed the silhouette of the three soaking in the bath. Kyohei carelessly put his clothes into the washer. He took note of the two little robes with animal ears on the hoods hanging on hooks on the wall of the laundry room. He took interest in Sunako's towel and with no hesitation, wrapped it around his naked waist. Then he walked back out to the living room and sat down, arms crossed behind his head.
And waited.
Yuki walked out of the kitchen and stared at him. "Um. Why are you nake-"
"Where is my towel!" Sunako's angry voice made Kyohei smile serenely. Ah. There she was.
"You can wear my robe!" Yae said excitedly.
"Yae, please find my towel,"
"Aye aye, capitan!" Yae ran out of the bathroom, eyes gleaming as she searched in her lion cub robe.
Kyohei eyed her from the couch. Yae took one look at his evil smile and then fled.
"Well?" Sunako said through the door, her silhouette visible. Bath water was starting to evaporate from her skin and she was starting to feel cold.
"Kyohei-tan is wearing it. Nakedly,"
"Kill him,"
"Aye, capitan," The pigtailed girl wrung her hands and glanced at Sunako's silhouette. "Success rate is less than 50%, I'm afraid,"
"Kill him,"
Yae saluted and ran back out.
Gin was swinging his feet as he sat on the bench in the laundry room. "So if I become Kyohei-tan's man, will I-"
"Gin Toyama, my success rate is always 100%," Sunako hissed.
"I never got a clear look last time," Kyohei's voice drawled. "But this is pretty nice,"
Yae was biting his leg with all her might, but he easily pulled her off and set her down next to Gin. Kyohei smiled and crossed his arms across his chest. Ah. Time to mess with her. His favorite time.
"You wanted your towel, didn't you? Come get it,"
"Uh...think of the children?"
Yae had drawn blood. Kyohei wiped it off thoughtfully. "Something tells me that you don't care much about what happens in front of them. So neither will I,"
"Why are you trying to see me naked?"
"Why not?"
"Stop,"
"I'm horny,"
Yae and Gin quietly left the room. Kyohei grinned and hopped onto the washing machine. He stared at her silhouette intently.
"I'll beat you up," She threatened.
"Naked? Go for it,"
She glared at his silhouette.
"You saw me shirtless. You owe me, Nakahara. You owe me for lots of things,"
"I owe you nothing but a beating,"
"Let's play strip poker," Kyohei said excitedly.
"..."
His grin became sinister. "Strip poker or you can walk back upstairs naked,"
"I don't know what's wrong with you," she mumbled, brows drawn inward. "But fine. I shall beat you out of your clothes, fool,"
"We'll see about that,"
His shadow rose, arms falling to his sides as he prowled towards the door. It opened slightly, just enough for his hand to pass.
He slipped the towel off and handed it to her. Sunako snatched it and quickly slid the door close.
"Kyohei-tan is wearing it. He's naked."
"Buddha's mother," Sunako sighed and stared at her towel, her face feeling hot. Ugh. He'd been wearing it around his naked self. Her towel had been around his naked parts. Her naked parts would touch his naked parts indirectly. She gasped as she realized that he was roaming around her house naked now. "Ugh! Damn it! Think of the children!"
Kyohei smiled as he heard her cries of distress. If the Toyama siblings were avoiding him due to his nudity, now they were running for their lives from that satisfied and villainous look on his face.
llllllllll
"This one is Bruce," Yae lifted the puppy with the tan ears. She lifted another puppy, with a brown spot on his muzzle, and introduced it as Orochi. "That one," Yae nudged the blue-eyed puppy with her toe. "is Seal,"
"But I named that one Momo," Gin sulked.
"That's Momo," Yae nodded towards the runt. "And this," Yae scooped up the sleeping puppy. "is Juanita,"
"Shouldn't we let whoever adopts them name them?" Yuki rubbed the back of his neck. He was uncomfortable with how much his baby sister was turning into her babysitter.
She looked at him coldly. "No."
The boys had bathed after the girls. After Kyohei had gotten out of the bath, Sunako had been sure to claw his stupid pervert face, though he had looked eerily pleased by her behavior. Masochist.
The sun would be setting soon, so they set out to the market place with the puppies. Sunako figured it wouldn't take long, with four beautiful faces helping.
"Exploitation time! Take off your shirt," She demanded. Kyohei scowled at her and refused ("Don't objectify me.") Yuki didn't have a choice in the matter.
"Come and get 'em, hot off the baby-making press!" Yae pitched cheerily.
Sunako smiled when, as predicted, a crowd of women swarmed them. She had to put her foot down here and there when some tried to make off with Yae or Gin or Yuki and informed them that they were not up for adoption.
Kyohei just stood there and frowned. He glanced at her when she went to stand by him. "I'll take my shirt off only if we exclude Yuki from strip poker,"
"What is wrong with you?" Sunako mumbled. "You're so frisky all of sudden," She tilted her face to meet his eyes. "Did you miss me that much at school? Don't answer that,"
"Don't ask, then," He muttered, looking away.
"Stop being weird then,"
He shrugged. "It's normal to be horny,"
"That's no excuse to sexually harass me,"
Kyohei growled when a hand groped the front of his pants. "Fuck your mother, this is sexual harassment. Fuck," He growled at the granny who was blushing and holding her hand reverently.
The purple-eyed girl gave him a sidelong look and raised her brows.
"Hey, Sunako-tan, we sold three of them," Yae pulled on her skirt.
"Sold?" Sunako blinked down at her. "I thought they were going to be adopted,"
"We made $150 off of Seal and Momo. We're having a buy one, get one half-off for Bruce and Orochi," Yae explained. "We can buy all the food we wasted at your house and then we can buy candy with the rest of the money!"
Sunako smiled, surprised at her maturity. "That's very thoughtful of you,"
"You and Mama always say not to waste food," Yae smiled back brightly.
The Nakahara heiress watched Yuki and Gin, who were...
"I didn't know Yuki knew how to eat fire," Sunako said in awe. "And Gin's doing card tricks,"
"Yeah, they're pretty talented," Yae shrugged and counted her bills before stuffing them into her apron. "I think we'll have money leftover to buy dinner,"
"He's juggling fire," Kyohei and Sunako's eyes were glazed over as they watched the eldest Toyama.
Then it started to rain.
"Oh no!" Yae groaned as the crowd quickly dispersed as quickly as they came. "We still have Juanita,"
"Let's go home," Yuki dropped the fire torches that were fizzled out and Gin slipped his pack of cards back into his pocket.
And for the second time that day, Kyohei wished Sunako had been wearing white.
llllllllll
Sunako gazed deeply into dark eyes set in white fur.
Juanita stared back sleepily from her spot in Kyohei's sweater.
"I guess we're keeping her then," said Sunako, her face near Kyohei's shoulder as she stared at her new pet. "Hello, Juanita Nakahara,"
The twins shook themselves like wet dogs and delighted in leaving rain puddles on Sunako's carpet.
Kyohei took Juanita out of his hoodie and placed her in Sunako's arms. He ruffled his wet blonde spikes with his fingers.
"It's a nice name," Yuki cooed at Juanita and play with her floppy ears. "My name's Yuki!" He greeted enthusiastically.
"Juanita doesn't care," Kyohei scoffed.
The tall blonde shifted his eyes to Sunako, who was looking at him through her bangs. He flashed a grin and mouthed, "Nap time."
Sunako sighed and trudged over to the twins. Oh, they knew what time it was. Like prey animal, they stilled. She bit the inside of her mouth. In a blink of an eye, they were running up the stairs.
Five minutes later...
"But I don't wanna!" Yae whined.
Their babysitter brought the cover up to the twins' chins tightly while they squirmed like the little naptime-avoiding maggots they were.
"Maggots," Sunako hissed at them. "You didn't honestly think you could escape, did you?"
Gin had given up and was falling asleep cuddled up to Juanita. Yae was looking teary-eyed at her hero. She pouted.
"No. No pouting. Sleep." Sunako decreed and so Yae huffed and closed her eyes.
Yuki patted Gin's feet through the covers of the futon. The were in the living room since the twins thought sleeping upstairs was creepy. Their standards for creepy, Yuki decided, were a little off. He stared out the large windows and in the fading sunlight. He could have sworn he saw someone in the garden...
"A menage a trois? A MENAGE A TROIS?!"
"Ranmaru, calm down!" Noi shrieked and grabbed his arm, forcing him back down behind the bushes. "Shut up, fool!"
Ranmaru was making choking noises. "The – They're NAKED! Yuki is in his boxers and the Takano is – oh, he's taking off his pants now. Oh, hold me, Noi!"
Noi gritted her teeth. God, why did her partner-in-crime have to be such a drama queen? "They're playing strip poker. Wait – no," She shifted her binoculars. "They're not following poker rules. I think they're playing strip Go Fish. Nakahara is asking for Takano's 9s, but he doesn't have any,"
Ranmaru clutched his heart and looked at Noi in horror. "Th-Then she's going to remove her clothes? In front of Yuki?"
Noi adjusted her binoculars. "Oh. She just took of her house slippers,"
Ranmaru fanned himself. "Good," Then he panicked again. "What if Yuki likes feet? Women's feet?"
"He doesn't look that interested in her feet. Nice pedicure though," Noi hummed thoughtfully at the mint green color on her rival's toenails.
"Noi," Ranmaru implored, his tone soft and pained. "What will we do? It seems like the Nakahara has all three of them in her sinister web. She has a harem and we're sitting here watching her enjoy it! I can't stand it!"
She snapped her eyes to his. "Look, I don't like sitting by like this either. We tried killing her but she has nine lives, so it seems," Noi rubbed her chin, eyebrows furrowed. "I guess we could try to manipulate her harem, but Yuki seems okay with sharing with Takano," She chewed her lip worriedly. "I don't think Takenaga would tolerate her consorting with other boys, but Yuki is the problem here,"
"Exactly," Ranmaru cried. "He can't be in her harem. He can't!"
"We'll figure something out," Noi bit her lip and looked at the Nakahara girl take off her stockings. The delinquent boy (Takano) looked much more interested in watching the gauzy fabric slide off of her legs than Yuki, but they all looked like they were having fun. That wouldn't do.
"I hate how happy he looks," The redheaded boy declared angrily. "Look. He's smiling. With her,"
"Maybe if you hadn't been so rough with him and hadn't cheated on him with some girl, we wouldn't be camped out in her garden spying on them! This is your problem so you can fix it," Noi huffed and shoved the binoculars at Ranmaru.
She stood up and smoothed out her skirt. Noi fixed him with a hard stare.
"But if you mess up and we have to get married," She turned her back to him, but her head turned to face him, blue eyes glinting frighteningly in the fading sunlight. "You won't get the chance to make up with Yuki ever again."
llllllllll
"Go fish," Kyohei grinned. Sunako was on a losing streak.
Her violet eyes darkened as she drew another card from the deck. Damn. No luck there either.
"Take it off!" Yuki whooped, evidently in high spirits.
The teens had found Auntie's beer cases. The boys were insistent on drinking, but Sunako wasn't about to lead them to her Aunt's outrageous alcohol stash. Beer would do for these heathens.
Kyohei crushed his second beer can and tossed it into the growing pile on the floor.
The lone girl sucked in her cheeks in annoyance. She was sitting, so the skirt could go then. Sunako slid it off of her hips and it pooled at her feet. The skirt joined her house slippers and her pantyhose in a pile similar to the ones the boys had. She ignored Kyohei's stares – he seemed to be interested in her legs, she noticed – and delicately crossed her legs.
Kyohei had lost his shirt, Yuki his shirts and his pants. Sunako really was impressed by hard and defined muscles in former's arms, shoulders, chest, and abdomen. Kyohei had a magnificent physique. He was aware of her admiration and just grinned cockily at her.
"Hm, nice panties,"
It had puppies on it. Speaking of, Juanita was sleeping besides Sunako on her chair. The puppy had somehow stumbled upon the teens and made her sleepy self comfortable by her owner. Sunako wondered if Juanita's sleepiness was normal puppy behavior or if she had some kind of dog narcolepsy.
They were on the large balcony with the sun setting in front of them. There were tables and chairs set outside, which was where the trio (plus Juanita) were playing strip Go Fish, since none of them knew how to play poker.
Sunako swirled her beer can. She didn't really like it. Thanks to Auntie, she had a taste for wine and sake. When she told the boys this, they laughed at her and threw beer cans at her.
"Gee, I'm feeling kinda drowsy," Yuki yawned. He dropped his arms onto the table, his head resting on them.
Kyohei shifted his legs, brushing against Sunako's. She bristled and his only indication to her discomfort was a small smile. "Go away then," he said.
"You're mean," Yuki slurred and swayed on his feet. He flung his cards down dramatically. "Come on Juanita! We're going to bed,"
He scooped up the sleeping puppy and stumbled inside, to the living room.
Leaving Sunako and Kyohei alone.
Kyohei looked up at her through his eyelashes, a fiendish gleam in his eyes. He swung his legs, trying to kick her.
"Stop trying to kick me," Sunako snapped. He kept swinging them so she retaliated with a foot to his thigh.
Kyohei caught her ankle and yanked it. The dark haired girl shrieked as she fell onto her behind in a completely and unacceptably undignified manner.
"Motherfu-!" Sunako grabbed her beer and sloshed it at him.
Kyohei snickered and hopped out of the way.
"I will kill your family and set your house on fire," She seethed and kicked her chair at his legs.
"I'll live in this nice ass mansion then," He scooped his shirt off of the floor and flung it at her head (again!) but this time she dodged it.
The blonde teen advanced and tickled her sides. Sunako fought off a squeal and shoved his chest. He grabbed her wrists just as she tripped over a beer can.
And sent both of them over the balcony's ledge.
"Ow," she whined into his shoulder.
Kyohei groaned and sat up, Sunako sitting in his lap in a daze. "Good thing this balcony isn't that high," he ruffled his hair and glanced around at the garden. His hand landed in a rose bush, but luckily he hadn't touched a thorn. "Or that fall would've hurt a lot worse,"
She nodded and crawled off his lap, though not without him tugging on her hair. Sunako slapped his hand and sat in the damp grass. It sparkled under the dying sunlight, wet from the rain from earlier. Spring weather was so fickle.
"Aren't you cold?" She asked, raising her brows at his shirtless-ness.
"Aren't your panties getting wet?"
"Shut up," Sunako said to the rakish look on his face. Perv.
She pulled her knees up to her chest and made herself comfortable. It was a warm, pretty evening.
"Where were you?"
Her eyes flickered to his face. He looked bored, reclining on his hands like that.
"I went to my uncle's death anniversary," she said, gazing at the sunset. "I found some interesting information there,"
"Like what?"
"Mm, that my aunt was part of the Oda clan but she married someone from the Mori clan. She also might have been pregnant at some point, but those are just rumors," Sunako turned back to face him. "So that cleared up why Takenaga's mom was so pissed at Auntie," She looked up thoughtfully. "Speaking of, I guess Takenaga wasn't lying about me being an Oda, but I still want to know what I did to get kicked out of the Oda clan,"
"You'll have to do some more investigating then, huh?" He rubbed his nose, looking irritated. "That fucking Oda tried to threaten me today," Kyohei scoffed.
She looked at him curiously. "Why'd he threaten you?"
"You should ask him yourself," he said curtly, pulling up blades of grass in fistfuls.
"Stop that," she scolded and stilled his hands. "You're ruining my garden. Was it because of me?"
Kyohei shot her a wry look, eyes dark. "Who else?"
He dumped some grass on her head, so she lunged at his throat, pushing him onto his back. He seemed to be enjoying her strangling him. Masochist. Kyohei grabbed her waist and rolled her over. He pried her fingers off of his neck, but she redirected her hands to his hair and pulled.
"Ow," He growled at her and held her wrists in one hand above her head. "Don't touch my hair,"
Sunako squealed when he tickled her sides. He grinned down at her evilly. She kicked him off of her and rolled away.
"You got grass in your hair," He laughed when she threw a small shovel at him.
Sunako huffed and stood. She tried to smooth her skirt when she remembered she wasn't wearing it. She glared at the blonde boy, watching her with his elbows on the ground and his palms supporting his chin. He swung his feet in the air and smirked.
"I said it once," he leered at her hips. "I'll say it again. Nice panties,"
She ground her teeth, purple eyes flashing. Fucking pervert! She walked up to him, arms crossed over her chest. She lifted one foot and smashed down on the top of his head, smashing his face into the ground.
She could make out his muffled, "Nakahara!" Sunako smiled triumphantly, but he went for her ankles and yanked her to the ground again.
Kyohei sat up onto his knees and pulled her under him again. They tussled some more, the dark-haired girl hissing and kicking and the blonde boy restraining her and pulling her hair. He decided then that he must like girls with long hair.
Sunako gained the upper hand again and rolled on top of him. She ripped off a chunk of grass and shoved into his face, pinning his hands down at his sides with her knees digging into his palms.
He bit her fingers. She yelped and slapped him. He bit her forearm hard and then shifted his weight, unbalancing her.
Kyohei pushed her onto her back, kneeling between her legs and bit her bare shoulder. She yelped, trying to shove him off. He didn't budge, which made Sunako wonder if he was letting her push him away. A slight chill went down her spine as she wondered at his true level of strength.
His nose brushed along her neck and he dragged his teeth over her skin, breath hot. Sunako's breath caught, her fingers tightening on his shoulders. His breathing was rough as he bit down on where her neck joined her shoulder. She cried out, not entirely in pain, her hips moving against his. Kyohei grunted, warm lips on her collarbone. Her lower abdomen fluttered as she felt something hard press into her. Sunako's breath shortened and she gasped. Kyohei's hands tightened on her hips. Long fingers then drove into her hair. His lips moved over her jaw as he shoved his hips closer to hers. Sunako was barely aware that her legs had relaxed and spread wider to accommodate him. She moaned as he moved his hips and the front of his pants rubbed the front of her panties. Just as the feeling in her lower body intensified, he pulled away and laid down next to her.
They were both panting and sweating, lying next to each other on the grass. Kyohei, sans his shirt and Sunako, sans her skirt.
Her mind felt blank as she stared at the darkening sky. Her skin felt so sensitive to the grass flickering against her bare legs and arms, her stomach still feeling odd. Sunako had to force herself to glance over at him, feeling hesitant for some reason. His eyes were closed as his breath evened out, his hands behind his head.
Sunako closed her eyes as well and tried to calm herself down.
