Chapter 62

You have no choice but to kill them Seishirou. You're a Horcrux, they'll just kill you anyways.

I won't, you can't make me...they're my family, more than I can say for you.

But darling, how can you expect to live if they'll all come after you? Your brother, your friends, and that boy you hold dear...

They won't, they're not like you…

Thunder cracked and lightning flashed causing Seishirou to sit up with a start in his bed. Just under two years ago they had figured out that he was indeed a Horcrux and in those two years, they had made zero progress in finding out how to get rid of it without ending himself. There was one way of course, the same way the boy who lived had done it. To walk into death's open arms but the day he let his mother kill him without a fight was the day Fuuma ceased to test his patience. There was only person he'd let do that and that person would be less than willing.

Speaking of Subaru, his side of the bed was empty. Well that was odd.

"Lumos." Squinting at his pocket watch in the glowof his wand he saw it was very early morning. Way too early for Subaru to be up. Straining his ears ( being an assassin gave one excellent hearing) he didn't hear any signs of movement from Mystic or Aiko's bedroom.

Getting up out of bed and throwing on his dressing gown, he started to search the manor. He eventually found Subaru in the library.

"What on earth are you doing in here Subaru?"

"WAAAH! Sei-kun, why are you awake?!" Images flashed through his mind as a flash of lightning lit up the sky giving Subaru a glimpse of the look of terror on Seishirou's face.

"No reason."

"Are the kids okay?"

"They're fine. Shall we get back to bed? You have that test later for your big promotion. Senior Auror and Specialist in Magical Creatures. I doubt you need to study anymore."

Subaru fidgeted. "That's not what I was looking up."

Instantly the older male knew what Subaru was looking up. "We'll worry about that later. Now are you going to go back to bed on your own or do I have to carry you back there?"

"Alright I'm going, and Sei-kun? If I do get the promotion...can we keep the celebrating to a minimum?"

A twisted smirk. "I make no promises of such."

~#~

Subaru had passed his test and got the promotion. Currently his siblings and their significant others along with all their other friends were in the manor having a party. The music was loud as they all danced around. Subaru was latched onto Seishirou as they moved in a way that if Subaru were fully sober he wouldn't be doing.

As the song reached its climax, Subaru's fingers started undoing the buttons on his husband's shirt, emerald eyes looking over the sunglasses. "Okay who slipped my little brother Fire Whisky? He's all over the bastard! I'm going to stop this—"

"Langlock"

"Kamui Shirou-Monou, you leave them be, this is getting interesting, go hang over your husband whose swinging from the chandelier."

"Hokuto, are you sure it's okay to be watching this?"

"Of course Kakyou! Not every day Subaru's so open OHOHOHOHO!" When she turned and saw her brother and his husband all tangled together however. "Okay, exit stage left..."

~#~

It was 4 am at Sumeragi-Sakurazuka manor. Hokuto and Kakyou slept in one of the many guest rooms, Kamui and Fuuma in another, and Subaru in his and Seishirou's room. Groggy with the weight of alcohol and sex aftermath on his shoulders, Seishirou ended up in the ball room only to get lifted up. In a panic he tied his black dressing gown tighter.

"I CAME IN LIKE A BLUDGER BALL, I JUST WANT TO WRECKKKK IT ALLL!"

"Oh jeez, are you STILL HERE? I thought you hauled your annoying ass home? Or at least went to bed. PUT ME DOWN AND GET THE HELL OFF THE CHANDELIER UNLESS YOU HAVE 1,200 GALLEONS FOR IT!"

"Speaking of, cheating on your already secret lover, the trashcan? Wait till I tell Kamui."

"Don't you dare!"

"Then get back to your room with your husband and I'm going back to mine. Don't you have work in a few hours? I know I sure do."

"Training season doesn't start until next month."

"Go back to sleep anyways."

~#~

Work had dragged on for what seemed like forever and Seishirou gladly looked forward to being home with his husband and curling up with a good book.

He got home and curled in the reading nook just for once pretending he was a teenager in a perfect world.

"Sei-kun?"

"Hmm?" Said male looked up from reading when his husband addressed him. Aiko was napping and Mystic was with her aunt for a shopping trip. Subaru fumbled with the hem of his shirt as the intense amber gaze looked him up and down. "What's the matter Subaru?"

"Well do you remember when I got promoted and every one insisted I have fire whisky?"

Subaru had indeed been amusing that night, he hadn't know the male could be such a dirty dancer or that his lithe body could work a pole or that Subaru could be so skilled in certain areas that involved the bedroom. Seishirou shook his head; he was getting flustered thinking about it. "I do, what about it?"

"Well apparently before you and I went to the bedroom that night…I drank the conceiving potion."

The book that was in Seishirou's hands fell to the manor floor with a thud. "A-are you telling me… that…" His voice was cracking, his voice barely cracked when he hit puberty.

"Yes, I am, I'm pregnant."
