BAM! Chapter 20 you guys! I'm actually really suprised by the length of this Fic so far. Well I'll warn you now, this chapter is really sorta boring and short so I inputted ALOT of Inside Tezuka's head sections (There is even one for Atobe!) I personally love how Atobe acts this chapter. Enjoy!
Oh and random thingy here I re-read over the last chapter (nineteen if you are just stupid) and I realized how much Tezuka and Atobe sound like girly gay guys that are gossiping (OH LOOK ALLITERATION! my english teacher would be so proud!) You know they REALLY girly guys that are just (in my own opinion to offense to any really and truely) annoying to me personally. This thought only occured to me during the breif time that they are talking about Yukimura and Sanada. I'm not going to change it though...I like it!
"You know that might work, in theory that is." Tezuka muttered after hearing Atobe's 'grand master plan' as he put it.
"In theory and reality Tezuka," Atobe corrected confidently.
"That's only if you can get them to agree to help."
Atobe doubled over in a fit of laughter, "Oh Tezuka, you forget that this is Ore-sama you're talking about," he smiled wiping a tear from his eye. Tezuka looked at him doubtfully as did I.
"That maybe so Atobe-san, but like Kunimitsu said, nothing is truly ever guaranteed." I smiled weakly. It's true his plan did sound good…in theory, but there wasn't any way that those people would agree to help me. They don't even know me, and vice versa.
"You really are making this hard for Ore-sama you know that right brat." Atobe then turned from me and faced Tezuka "And you, Ore-sama never imagined he would have to tell you this but, shut up! You are filling this kid with doubts about Ore-sama's abilities. At his young age he's very impressionable!" I frowned hearing this.
"What are you my mother Atobe-san? I'm twenty years old, I'm not that impressionable."
"You are a leap year baby aren't you?" Atobe smirked. Damn he was right I was young.
"That still doesn't mean I'm impressionable!"
"Your mother is quite frightening Shusuke, unlike Atobe here who merely has a slightly foreboding presence," Tezuka said flatly, causing me to giggle at Atobe's widened expression.
"Of course Ore-sama is nothing like this child's mother! Hasn't Ore-sama already stated that he isn't a mother that position CLEARLY BELONGS TO OSHITARI!"
"Atobe keep your voice down, you'll attract Kikuma-"
"Atobe-san what are you doing here?" Eiji smiled bouncing into the room.
Inside Tezuka's head….
"DAMN! Stupid Atobe and his stupid yelling!" Chibi Tezuka yelled slamming his head down onto the table in front of him. "Now I'm going to have to hide kinfy so I don't feel the need to use him today. I'm sorry Knify but you have to go in my pocket for now." The knife was carefully placed into his pocket as he patted in affectionately. "You stay right in there for now, until I need you later on for an Omake when we take the stage!" Chibi Tezuka grinned maliciously as he thought out said Omake. "The Authoress will be pleased with this blood bath MUWAHAHAH!" Chibi Tezuka proceeded to write out his ideas.
"What business is that to you peasant?" Atobe asked haughtily. "It is of no concern as to whyOre-sama is here, just be grateful that I even graced your pathetic life with my presence today."
"Whatever…"Eiji muttered looking away with his arms crossed over his chest, "Ne, Fujiko why is he here?"
"Atobe-san was having some problems, and he needed advice that's all." I replied kindly it's not like I was lying to him so he should be satisfied.
"Oh the great Atobe-san is having problems? Like what kind of problems?" The red head inquired farther.
Atobe frowned "Problems that do not require advice from an annoying kitty boy, besides Ore-sama did not give you permission to speak to him."
"Just let it go Atobe, let it go." Tezuka muttered placing a hand on the diva's shoulder before things got too out of hand.
"Fine fine, but still how is Ore-sama going to solve his problem concerning," He paused and glared at Eiji wishing that he would leave, "Jirou…"
"Well you said Oshitari is clearly the mother of the house, so why don't you tell him to take care of things for the day while you spend it with Jirou." I suggested, "Give him the attention he wants and he'll be fine. Once you settle that dispute, you can start work on your supposed grand master plan as you so graciously put it." Atobe considered my suggestion for a moment, giving it a good once over in his head then nodded slowly.
"Yes, that just might work; Ore-sama thanks you, Peasant." He smiled slightly as he got up from the chair. "Ore-sama will send word when he finds out an answer from the other lowlifes."
"Don't let Yukimura and Sanada hear you speaking about them like that." Tezuka said getting up from his chair. "That is unless you want to be on the receiving end of Sanada's Tarundoru."
Atobe shuddered turning his back to us, "Don't worry Tezuka, everything will be fine, trust Ore-sama!"
"I trusted you once before and look were it got me, see the monster you unleashed."
Atobe turned back and faced us with a very sympathetic look on his face. "Ore-sama said he was sorry Tezuka, I didn't know that he would do something like this. You take them in raise them and try and help them find someone right for them." He paused and sighed. "I never imagined he would do this. Nor did Ore-sama imagine that he would become more powerful than his owner." After that he left. Eiji had left sometime in between muttering something about how listening to Inui go over percentages was more entertaining than this conversation.
"Ne Kunimitsu, he was talking about Echizen wasn't he?" Tezuka nodded slowly still staring at the door Atobe had just left through.
"I knew Atobe long before I had met Echizen, when I was growing up he was always there. Our mothers where friends as where our fathers so it was only natural that we would become friends as well, given the amount of time we had to spend together." He explained, "Well we weren't really close friends, but close enough to know each other quite well. When I was fourteen and Atobe was nineteen he began to change he started to hang around different people one of them being Echizen. I wasn't much of what you call a social butterfly like Atobe, so I didn't associate myself with them. Needless to say I was a little hurt when he didn't come around as often, and when he did Echizen was with him. So one day I asked him what was up?"
I nodded, amazed at the amount of back stories this man possessed, every time something else came up he had more to add to the story.
"Atobe said that they were just good friends and that was all, well come to find out Echizen was Atobe's first changing. At the time I was clueless as to what Atobe and Echizen were that is until I got to know Echizen better."
"I thought you said you didn't associate yourself with him?" I questioned propping my elbow up on the table as I rested my chin on my upturned palm. "You're confusing me."
"Well seeing as how Atobe brought him over so much I was forced to speak with him. I detested him at first, but over the next two years I grew fond of him eventually growing into a hidden relationship from my parents. Then well the rest you know from there." He trailed off looking down at the table solemnly. I knew that the story had ended for now, and that was fine seeing as how Tezuka looked the way he did.
"Saa, don't look that Kunimitsu, you didn't know and as Atobe-san said he didn't either. The only one that knew this would happen was Echizen-san himself." I cupped his cheek in my right hand and lifted his face so that his eyes could meet my own and smiled brightly. "Think of it this way, if he hadn't had done this then Eiji wouldn't have found me outside and we wouldn't have met." Tezuka nodded, "Mainly because you'd be dead and probably in the arms of another woman when you did!" I added with a small laugh that made Tezuka frown. "You know I'm right. Since your parent's didn't condone gay relations."
I.S.T.H… (Yea I got lazy!)
"Women are gross…they have cooties." Shuddered Chibi Tezuka, "That's why I'm glad Shusuke looks like a girl. If mother and father were alive then I could have easily fooled them with Shusuke. We would just never be able to have kids. And it's not like he doesn't already act like a girl so he would be believable enough. Though none of that really matters because their dead so who gives a damn not me!" Chibi Tezuka pulls out the knife from his pocket. "What do you think Knify do you care?"
Knify: "Dumb ass of course I don't!"
"OMG YOU SPOKE!" Chibi Tezuka squealed, "THAT'S SO COOL!"
Knify: "I know dumb ass, I'm made of awesome!"
Chibi Tezuka's eyes widened hearing this "No no this isn't true it can't be true you sound like…like…ATOBE!"
Knify: "How perceptive of you Tezuka, just as Ore-sama expected."
Knify said changing into a teeny tiny uber Chibi Atobe. "Oh and Tezuka, Ore-sama wishes to say that your pocket is very warm and cozy may Ore-sama return to it? Ore-sama promises to keep it clean and neat…and that he won't touch anything while in there." Chibi Atobe gave the cliché teary eyes and shojo sparkles with a flowery background. Chibi Tezuka blushed lightly then gave a small slow nod.
"Thank you Tezuka, Ore-sama is most grateful." Chibi Atobe smirked climbing up into Chibi Tezuka's pocket and snuggled down. "Che, Tezuka there is pocket lint," Chibi Atobe complained throwing the unwanted object out.
Inside Teeny Tiny Uber Chibi Atobe's Head…
Ne finally I'm somewhat inside Tezuka's pants. GAH A LINT BALL! Be gone evil lint, you are obstructing Ore-sama's view in Tezuka's pants…damn you clothing! Ore-sama finally makes it this far and Ore-sama is too small to do anything! Not to mention the fact that Ore-sama promised to not…touch anything other than the lint…lint is gross and fibrous. Why must Ore-sama be a man of his words?"
Back out in reality Tezuka hadn't paid one bit of attention to anything that Fuji had said for the last few minutes. Somehow within those few minutes Fuji had moved his way into Tezuka's lap and was staring at him intently.
"Kunimitsu, you haven't been listening to me have you?" I asked coldly narrowing my eyes at him. Tezuka didn't like being caught off gaurd no matter how rare it was that said action ever occured.
Tezuka's eyes widened by a few millimeters then relaxed with a small "Hn,"
"So you weren't!" I muttered hitting him the chest with my palm.
"I was."
"Then what did I say?"
"Something about pocket lint and a tiny Atobe?" My eyes narrowed hearing Atobe's name.
"No, I didn't say anything remotely close to Atobe-san's name. Nor did I say anything about pocket lint?" Pocket lint? How did he get pocket lint out of my supposed words of comfort? And how did Atobe-san's name get involved? "I think you should go and lie down Kunimitsu, you're talking nonsense which is very unlike you."
"You don't realize how much truth I'm speaking, just not about what you said." he muttered as I got up from his lap.
I arched an eyebrow, "So there actually is a tiny Atobe-san and…pocket lint?" Tezuka nodded slowly as he stood up and left. I swear the longer I stay here the odder every single one of the guys get.
See what I mean, a very uneventful chapter...oh well I don't really expect a review for this one since nothing happened in it. Oh well thanks guys! Ne, Atobe hsa a hidden thing for Tezuka how adorable! But he has Jirou now so its cool...
