Chapter 58

The sun had just started to peak up from the sky and the birds had just started to sing. The temperature was already in the low sixties. The cake was cooking on the counter and the young man wiped the sweat of his brow. "Well that's done. I can't wait to see Subaru and Seishirou's faces! I feel like it's been forever since I've seen them."

A pair of arms wrapped around his waist and a gentle kiss to his cheek. "That looks amazing, where's mine?"

"Later…it's too hot in here as is but they just had their second child so I figured they'd appreciate this. Well Seishirou probably more than Subaru but you know how he is, he'll appreciate it either way."

The younger of the pair broke away to start decorating the cake, "Is Natsumi still asleep?"

"No, she's awake making noises in her room."

"Ah I should go check on her…she's probably hungry."

"I heard Yuui's back...maybe you should go see him? You missed him right? Since he gave you a few pointers on cooking. Go see him, I'll handle Natsumi for now."

"Fine…and don't you dare think about sneaking into the surprise I have for you!"

When Watanuki arrived at St. Mungo's he saw Hokuto and Kakyou there, each with a sleeping baby in their arms. "Hokuto, Kakyou, hi! How are you? How are the twins?"

"Hello, Watanuki, they're doing well. Kokoa usually sleeps through the night, Choukichi not so much."

"Ohohohoho he just takes after his fabulous mama that's all. Too many ideas in his mind. Anyways Watanuki, how are you and Doumeki? Going smoothly like I told you?"

Watanuki flushed. If Hokuto hadn't intervened all those years ago he may have never admitted that he actually liked Doumeki... "Yes...Natsumi's finally sleeping through the night."

"Lucky. If it isn't Kokoa it's Choukichi and vice-versa."

"Hokuto, Kakyou, and Watanuki! What a surprise! Welcome! OH! Hokuto you brought the twins! They've gotten so big! And Watanuki that cake is amazing, who's that for?"

Watanuki flushed; he had always somewhat looked up to Subaru. "Oh well, um, actually it's for you and Seishirou...congratulations on your second child."

"Well Sei-kun will loooove you. He was just sending me to track down some sweets. Come on, he's coming home today, as is Aiko."

"Ohohoho fabulous. Come on Kakyou, I want to meet my new nephew!"

"Yes dear..."

"Watanuki, are you coming?"

"Ah…shouldn't this be a family thing Subaru?"

"We're all family Watanuki. Family doesn't end in blood."

The younger male flushed again and smiled before following Subaru down the hallway.
