I Will Never Love Like This Again…
Disclaimer: Sakura:PureHeartKill does not own Junjou Romantica, but she does own the Doctor Daisuke Takahashi and his daughter Sakura and Shinobu's teacher, Arai Satou, since never meet him/her in the manga I made one up...
Rating: T maybe M in later chapters
A/N: This is an extra chapter for Doctor Takahashi and Satou-sensei. Remember Arai was playing with Sakura in the waiting room… this picks up from there. Also this is a FILLER CHAPTER so it does not follow the plot of the story. It is for my OC's, because I did get reviews saying that they wanted me to write this chapter. If you do not want to read this, you can skip it without missing any of the plot. The chapter directly after this one starts a new part (Romantica Part) so feel free to jump right to that one if you are not interested in reading the chapter on my OCs.
Warning: BoyXBoy paring, don't like don't read. Also in the first few chapters there is akind ofcharacter death and there will be Mpreg! Also this is my firstfull onMpreg fiction sopleasebe nice everyone!
Chapter 25: Family Reunited
This is a part from Chapter 23, when Arai met Sakura for the first time: Satou-sensei just sat there awkwardly, not knowing what to do. He was really only there because he felt guilty, still caught up in five years ago when he made the worst mistake of his life. Other than that, he didn't really feel like he was welcome there, until a little five-year-old girl tugged on his pants. "Will you play with me, mister…?" She began, and everything else around him began to blur.
Arai stared at the little girl for a few seconds before he smiled and nodded. She was very cute, and she looked like she was about five years old. Arai almost couldn't believe it when he noticed that she had the same eyes as him… the same nose… and even the same hair color. Hell, she could be his daughter. "What is your name, sweetheart?" He asked, shaking his thoughts away.
"My name is Sakura Arai Takahashi!" She said with a large smile, holding out her hand politely waiting for Arai to shake it. After a while, he did, but he was still in shock. "What's your name, Mister?" She asked in an innocent voice, tilting her head to the side and putting on the most adorable smile.
Arai opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by a voice. "Sakura?" A man's voice called. Arai looked up. One of the doctors was coming out of the large double doors calling for Sakura, who was most likely his daughter. Arai gasped. That face… He thought to himself as he got up, walking over to the familiar man with Sakura fallowing behind him.
"D-Daisuke…?" Arai asked, causing him to turn around. If that is Daisuke… and he is Sakura's father… then that means… Arai asked once more. "Are you Daisuke Takahashi?" He asked again, more confidently this time, hoping that this time; he really could redeem himself for the mistake he made all those years ago.
"Arai…" Daisuke gasped, looking at the man in front of him. He was the same man who ran away from him six years ago. The same man who he loved with all his heart, and who motivated him to become a doctor. His childhood friend that never left his side until the day he found out about Sakura.
Arai… is Sakura's father.
Tears threatened to pour out of Arai's eyes. This was it… his chance to right all of his wrongs. "It really is you…" He whispered under his breath. Daisuke saw Sakura behind him and quickly maneuvered to pick her up, taking her into his protective arms. "Sakura… is she…?" Arai didn't even need to finish before Daisuke nodded his head. Daisuke wanted to scowl at Arai. He knew that Arai hadn't wanted a child. That much was apparent the day he ran away and left him all alone to raise their child. What he hadn't known was that he would have to meet with his man again, or what Arai was going to do at that moment. Arai put on a loving smile and looked at Sakura. "She is perfect, isn't she…?" Arai said, looking back up at Daisuke. "I'm… so sorry…"
"Sorry…? I think it is six years too late for sorry." Daisuke huffed out. He wasn't going to be the one to jump back into Arai's arms just because he still had feelings. Not this time. Not ever again. Arai frowned and nodded his head, turning away from Daisuke, and Sakura reached out for him.
"Wait! Don't go mister! You haven't played with me yet!" Sakura whined and turned to Daisuke. "Daddy! Tell him he has to stay and play with me. Sakura wants to play with him." Sakura began to whisper, which made Arai turn around. Daisuke immediately tried to calm Sakura, but that only made her louder.
"I'll play with her." Arai said to Daisuke with a smile. Daisuke held in a gasp. That he definitely did not expect from Arai. He had thought Arai had hated children. "But first we should go and talk someplace else." Arai motioned for Daisuke to follow him and began to walk towards the hospital's cafeteria, in hopes that he and Daisuke could finally get over the scares of the past.
"I know this is sudden… But when I saw you… I knew that… I still had feelings for you." Arai stated suddenly. They had been sitting down eating peacefully for a while, just talking about the old days and what they were doing currently. Daisuke had almost flipped when he discovered that Arai was now a college teacher, since Daisuke had been convinced that Arai couldn't stand children, let alone annoying college kids, and Arai had been shocked to learn that Daisuke had been the Doctor that was treating his top student, Shinobu. After a whole hour of talking, Arai's statement was certainly the most unexpected.
"W-what do you mean? What about Sakura? Wouldn't she be in the way? You didn't exactly want her." Daisuke was trying to be stubborn, but his voice was shaking. Sakura whined and pulled on Daisuke's sleeve, wanting to know what it was the two adults were talking about.
"No… What I did six years ago was a mistake, and I've always regretted it. I want to make it up to both of you." Arai stayed calm and professional, as he always did, even though on the inside he was shivering like a little girl, so afraid of rejection he could barely breathe. "I want to be the father I never was to Sakura." He paused. "But I understand if you think it's too late for that."
At that point it was obvious to Daisuke that Arai was shivering, scared. "I do need help with Sakura…" He thought out loud. Arai perked up. "But it will take a long time for me to forgive you!" Daisuke crossed his arms, and even though the last thought hurt Arai, he still managed to smile and nod his head.
"Thank you…"
Years Later
"Sakura!" Arai called up to his teenage daughter. "It's time for school! Get up now!" Sakura moaned and clomped down the stairs, her long black hair was tied up in a pony tail and she wore a black dress that hovered just above her knees, decorated only by the blood red belt around her hips.
"I'm up already, Father, you don't have to yell." She groaned out. Typical 16-year-old…Arai thought with a sigh as his daughter nudged pasted him and pulled on her knee-tall black boots. "It's already Friday… and the last day of school. Can't I just skip and go to town with the rest of my friends?"
"I told you that you have to go to school and hand this in to the office! It may be the last day of school, but you still need to attend!" Daisuke appeared from the kitchen of their house. It had been years since they had bought it so that they could move in together, as a family, but Arai still felt like it was all a dream. Daisuke smiled at him, planting a kiss on Arai's cheek. "Good morning honey…" He said before the two shared a deep and passionate kiss.
"Gross guys, I'm leaving now." Sakura said as she left for school. The two men chuckled. Sakura had always been like that, even though they both knew that she didn't mind. Arai smiled and kissed Daisuke again, his time wrapping his arms around the shorter man's waist. Arai smiled to himself, thinking of his family… and of his one true love.
He had everything he could ever hope for.
Fin
