I screwed myself over, this is what you get, Kaito.
For being the stupid one in this house, for screwing up and saying the crappiest things to Len. This is what you deserve! This is what you get.
Congratulations for failing.
"Can I come in?" Luka stood by my door, "… Yea, go ahead." I sat at my desk, wiping away these tears.
She began to tell me a story.
"Luka… What are you doing?"
"I'm trying to help you understand," she continued on with the story. My mind surprisingly did not blank out, I took in her words. "Kaito… Try to look on the bright side, something good will happen, okay?"
I nodded, opening the door out to the balcony where I watched Len play around in the snow with his sister, Piko was there, too. I can still say hi, can't I?
"Le-Len… Len!" I waved out to him, the cold air stung my throat.
He looked around, picking up a pile of snow. He ran up to me, pitching the snowball. It weakly hit me on the shoulder, I wanted to smile at him. I couldn't.
I sat down on the chair, Luka stood next to me. "I think everything will work out, believe in that and you'll be happy."
It was darker out, Piko went on home, Rin and Len came back inside. Whenever I saw him, he had a blank look.
"I don't want you in my life, not like that. You have to understand that." Len sat down at the couch.
If that makes you happy, then I won't stay in your life.
No one went to sleep, it was nearing eight o'clock in the morning. The stillness of the house made me uncomfortable, Len was the only one to sleep. Only for two hours.
"Kaito…" Rin looked up to me, "I…" She covered her eyes, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry about everything."
It felt like something had stabbed me in the heart; guilt.
"… Rin, I'm sorry, too. I'm sorry I don't feel the same way about you." I took a step back, "You're a good girl. I know you're strong." She nodded, a tear streaming down, "Ri-right. I'll be in my room, and… Why not give him another kiss?" She pointed at her brother, trailing up the steps.
I'll give it another go, I went over to him, caressing his cheek. I tilted his head up by his chin, planting a kiss on his lips.
The moment Len was sleeping, he dream something short and quiet. It was himself sleeping at the table. Kaito stood in front of the house entrance, he walked by closer and stood in front of where Len was facing. He bent over, feeling Kaito's lips over his at the exact same moment he was kissed from out his dream. When he woke up, Kaito was not there. His fingers were on his mouth, "I'll think about it."
The day started out normal. If you could say that. We weren't really talking to each other. Luka conked out up until evening.
"I wish Luka was here~! I don't want to feel like the third wheel." Rin sighed, I shivered. Saying that doesn't help me, it simply doesn't.
"Len, what kisses do you like?" Rinny cuddled next to her brother, "Cheek kisses, but I think passionate kisses look nice, too."
"Of course they do," I smiled at him, "They mean a lot, too."
"Then there's making out, do you know what that is, Rin?" She shook her head at Len, "No, I don't."
"Making out is a constant, longer, heartfelt and sometimes sexual passionate kiss. Kind of like an extra step up." I exhaled, catching my breath.
"When do you breathe?" Rin covered her red face.
"You can breathe, honest." I scratched my chin, "How?" She asked again.
"That's what Gakupo said. And through your nose…?"
"Hm, if people make out, don't they breathe through their mouth?" Len added.
"I dunno, their mouths are busy." I glimpsed to the side.
It was afternoon, Len had gone out for a walk and Rinny stayed inside with me, she drew on my face, having to wash up later.
When Len came back home, he stuck out his tongue at me, "I'll bite that off, y'know."
"Why would you bite it off, if you do, then I wouldn't be capable of communication with my voice."
I laughed a little, he could use a little too much words. "Then don't stick it out at me."
He stood next to me, holding up a small egg. "Kaito, it's…" He got closer to me, whispering, "Our baby. If you dare to crack it, I will hurt you."
An egg? Did he found it out on the snow? That poor thing. I couldn't make sense out of this, it was an egg. "It's almost going to hatch, too. I need to keep it warm." He kissed the top of it.
"Egg equals S plus two, S equals M plus F."
"Kaito, uh… what the heck are you saying?"
"M plus M does not equal…. Well, it does, but."
"Shut up, it's our kid." Len walked away, keeping the egg warm under a light.
I believe one of my gears are fried in my electronics. An egg…? Did he lay an egg?
No, no! Only birds and reptiles lay eggs.
He began to read the egg a bedtime story, I thought it was really cute of him. Luka had arose from the sleeping grave and came downstairs with us.
"Good morning, I mean evening!" She stretched out her arms.
Len placed a blanket on the egg, I could hear it hatch, leaning next to him as I watched its shell crack open, "Look, look! Kaito, we're going to be a family now." I chuckled, falling on top of him from sheer accident, "Auuugh! Get off, get off! I need to tend our child."
I took my time to get off of him, kissing him on the cheek, "So… What's its name?"
"I want you to name it, Kaito." He looked at me, I quickly faced the other direction, slowly looking back at him, "Isn't that something we do together?"
"Oh, oh! I know what to name it!" Luka jumped, "Keilto, no… Oh! Keilton, Keito-Lan, Helga." The names she listed weren't that appealing.
"Well, uh… Is it a boy or a girl?" I pet the small bird with my pinky. He stared at the bird for a good minute, "It's a girl bird."
"Oh? How about Belle?" Len shook his head at me, "We can name her Rapunzel." I laughed, "Hmm. Something else." I didn't want to name her Rapunzel. With no awareness, Rin had gone somewhere, only Luka was with us.
"Aww, Len! She has your hair." I wiped away a tear, petting the tiniest chick I've ever seen. "I think she has your eyes." He gave me the warmest smile, enough to fill me to my heart's content.
