Chapter 20

Everyone had retired to go to bed for the night. Hokuto, in her cute new pjs that she showed off promptly, was curled up in spare room. Kamui, who was wearing a pair of Fuuma's old pajamas was in Fuuma's bed with him cuddled into him, stealing a kiss now and again as both hazed off to sleep. Subaru had a pair of Seishirou's old pajamas folded neatly on the chair in the room, right next to the man's own set of pajamas. They were the only two still awake in the house.

Seishirou was on top of Subaru, both of them naked and was slowly thrusting into the younger teen. "Ahhh...there...there…"

A teasing grin formed onto the older teen's face. "Maybe I should stop Subaru, you're going to wake up our sib-" The rest of his sentence was cut off by an open mouth kiss from his lover. When the kiss broke off he was left staring into intense emerald eyes.

"Don't you dare-stop, I've needed this for..soo-ahh-lonng." He locked his legs around the other teen's waist pulling him closer as they moved together hard and fast. Then Subaru froze as his world turned white.

When his vision returned he saw his fiancé still moving on top of him. Fumbling his loose arms around Seishirou, he pulled him down until their foreheads touched. He noticed Seishirou had slowed down in rhythm since Subaru had reached his release.

"Don't slow on my account Sei-kun, I want you to reach your climax too."

The way Subaru had spoken and the intense look in his green eyes caused the older teen to pick up his pace, making the younger teen arch under him every time he got pressed into the mattress. All of a sudden Seishirou froze in Subaru's embrace, all of his muscles going tight as he hit the moment of release too. Subaru shuddered at the feeling as he felt a pair of familiar lips pressed to his. He tangled his fingers into sweat-soaked hair as they kissed. Finally, with reluctance, Seishirou broke the kiss and disjoined their bodies. Subaru nuzzled against the other man.

"Don't get too comfortable my beautiful one, we should get dressed. I needn't remind you that my brother is here, your twins are here, and by morning my father will be here."

Forcing themselves to move despite their post orgasmic bliss they got up to get dressed. Seishirou opted to leave his pajama top off and just pulled the bottoms on. Subaru had put the bottoms on and pulled the drawstring as tight as it would go. He was currently trying to pull the top on but was trying to put his head through the sleeve. With a soft chuckle Seishirou went over and helped Subaru.

"Why hello there."

The younger teen blushed and leaned his head against Seishirou's bare chest and wrapped his arms around Seishirou's waist. Arms went around him in return and Subaru sighed. "I love you, so much; you're not allowed to leave Sei-kun." Lips pressed to his forehead.

"I love you too, and who said I was going anywhere?"

"Seishirou, you're so handsome, anyone would gladly take you and yet...you're with me. Why?"

Long fingers curled on Subaru's chin and tilted his head up. "Because Subaru, you're the only person that's ever made me feel like a whole person. I can't picture myself with anyone else. I don't think anyone else could handle me to be honest and besides," He paused to pick Subaru up into his arms and pressed his mouth close to the younger teen's ear. "When I feel alone I reach for you and you bring me home, when I'm lost at sea I hear your voice and it carries me."

Subaru blushed hearing his fiancé's singing voice. Smiling softly Subaru finished it. "In this world we're just beginning To understand the miracle of living. Baby, I was afraid before, But I'm not afraid, anymore."

He turned his head and pressed his lips to his fiancé's and allowed himself to be laid on the bed. He was soon joined by the older teen and he instantly cuddled and reveled at being held by the only person he could see himself with too. "You know Sei-kun, there's no one else I could see myself with either, I'm too clumsy and accident prone, although you're not immune to that either."

"Shush, go to sleep my dear future husband."

Subaru went bright red and nuzzled more if that was possible."You too, my future husband." Subaru's voice was muffled and his fiancé had to fight a laugh.

It was five in the morning when Kamui woke up to an empty bed. Feeling his way in the dark, he fumbled out of bed to go to the bathroom.

After taking care of that he noticed he heard hushed whispers from downstairs. Opening the room Hokuto was sleeping in, he saw his sister still curled in her bed. Being brave, he opened Seishirou's bedroom door and saw Subaru alone in his bed. Being more brave still he started to head downstairs.

"Ow dammit, that was my foot you clumsy fool."

"I tripped over the trash can."

"I should tell Kamui you're cheating on him with an inanimate object."

"You tell him that I'll tell Subaru about your affair with Sakura trees OW! THAT WAS MY LEG YOU KICKED!"

"I meant to, and will you keep your voice down? You're not only going to wake dad up, but the triplets as well, and if they wake up there goes our surprise."

"Yeah yeah. Don't worry, you cast the Muffliato spell didn't you? Did you talk to Kotori yet?"

"Of course I did, I snuck out once at midnight before you decided to wake me up at four-thirty. You're lucky you didn't wake up Subaru."

"I'm sure he's well tired out after last night-ow! LET GO OF MY HAIR!"

"I'm so glad I cast that spell, the benefits of being of age. One more prod like that little brother and you'll be doing a tap dance in your underwear in front of the triplets. It's bad enough you woke me up at this god forsaken hour."

"Fuuma?"

Fuuma cursed under his breath. "Kamui what are you doing up?"

"I woke up and you weren't there so I came to find you."

"We're just talking, go back to bed."

"Talking about what?"

"Kotori."

A confused look married Kamui's face while Fuuma shot his brother a glare. "Oh dear, you haven't told him?"

"Look who's talking, you didn't tell Subaru either, and for heaven's sake will you put a shirt on?" Fuuma threw a t-shirt at his older brother and hit him square in the face.

"Never mind changing the subject Fuuma, who's Kotori?" Violet met honey brown and they just stood there in silence.

"She was our sister and the reason why Fuuma and I lived apart for so long." Again Fuuma glared.

"Only because someone has more pride then the sin itself."

"She's also the reason someone where's unfashionable glasses."

Amber met honey brown and Kamui felt like he wasn't there. He knew you could cut the tension with a knife. Seeing Seishirou look like that was nothing new, he had seen it, but only directed at the enemy. But to see Fuuma look like that, it was scary, he had known Fuuma since he was a little boy and was used to him being sweet and nice.

"Sei-kun what's going on?"

"Go back to bed Subaru."

"What's the matter? Don't want him to know your darker side?"

"And you're fine with Kamui knowing yours?"

"I've known Kamui since I was young, so yeah, just a bit, what's your excuse?"

"Subaru's far too pure."

"Correction, he USED to be pure, until you got a hold of him."

Amber eyes narrowed more as the glasses were taken off. "Oh, is that so? And you're an angel right, little brother?"

That was enough for the twins, Subaru ran in and grabbed Seishirou before he could turn his wand on his little brother. "You're not your mother Sei-kun, you're not a monster, stop…"

Kamui took a less romantic approach and thwacked his boyfriend upside the head. "What the hell is wrong with you? You don't talk about Subaru like that!"

"Kamui you shouldn't hit him, it's alright, he's right, I'm not exactly pure anymore." A faint blush dusted his cheeks before he spoke up again."Now both of you hug and make up or else."

"Or else?"

"Or else when we get back to school you'll be doing lines for a month and you..." Subaru hesitated briefly looking up at his fiancé. "I won't write to you for a month." He paused again. "This is silly, seven years ago your little sister died, now more than ever you two should be supporting each other. I didn't know her, but your mother told me I remind her of Kotori so I think I have an idea. I doubt she'd want to see her big brothers, the two people she looked up to the most, fighting on Christmas Eve. It's an insult to her memory."

Without another word he turned on his heel and walked out of the kitchen the tears pricking the corner of his green eyes. He walked upstairs and opened the door his sister was in. He crawled into her bed and cuddled into her. Of course this stirred his sister from her sleep.

"Subaru what is it?"

"They're fighting."

"Who is? Kamui and Fuuma?"

"Kinda, but he's involved too."

"Who, Sei-chan?"

"Yeah. I came down and he and Fuuma were at full out war."

"Siblings fight sometimes Subaru, you know that. You and Kamui have fought, you and I have fought, me and Kamui have fought."

"They looked ready to kill each other, Hokuto."

"I'm sure they'll get over it."

~#~

A wand was lowered. "What's this? Seishirou Sakurazuka walking away from a fight?"

"Yes, look I'm sorry I told him alright? He deserves to know, I didn't nearly kill you for telling Subaru. Now if you don't mind, I'd like to keep Subaru in my life. I'd suggest you change around or you'll be writing lines and possibly be single."

Kamui waiting until he heard Seishirou's foot falls on the stairs. "I'm sorry Fuuma, this is all my fault."

"No, you have a right to know. It's just I got so used to NOT being around him, I guess tension built up and it just unleashed itself. Sorry you had to see it." He walked over and captured Kamui's lips in a kiss.

"What are you doing awake anyways?"

"Err, was going to surprise you with breakfast, but I think we should go back to bed."

"That's for sure."

~#~

"Hokuto, is he in here with you?"

"Yes he is Sei-chan, you have some explaining to do."

"Later, for now let's just go back to bed, you coming Subaru?"

Emerald met emerald and Subaru nodded kissing his sister on the cheek as he got up. A small warm hand took a cooler larger hand as they walked off. "Thank you."

"What for?"

"For giving in first, I'm glad I mean so much to you."

A faint blush dusted the older male's cheeks. "If only you knew…"

"Hmm?"

"Nothing Subaru, come on, let's go to bed." A peck to the top of his head as they both climbed into bed.

As Subaru let sleep take him again, he couldn't help but wonder just what his fiancé had said.
