First off all thanks to all that where so great and
reviewed the last part.
I apologize for the long break since the last part.
But RL got a bit 'rushed' and actually I would have needed about 30 hours a day
for *everything* to be working right.
I hope everything is clear as I write this with a nice
coldhead ;)
To Taitofan:
Thanks a lot!
To: Nanaki Lioness
Thanks for your encouragement! It just wasn't the best
time to get almost NO reviews.
And about how people react. Well it won't be all roses…but
also not all thorns ;)
To: Adams42
Thanks :^D
To Tani:
Happy that I got your first sign review! *_*. And I am
much happy that the scene worked for you! The confession scene was the one I
was most nervous about if it worked storywise.
[And I'm sorry you're not having a great RL at the
moment. Hope it gets better for you! ^_^ //_^ Smile for Trowa! (I always do!)]
Ohh thanks ^_^. I will smile. And all those nice
reviews definitely made me smile brightly.
It should get better soon. At least I cross my fingers
and hope.
To ~aerogirl~:
Only the ones that you really like!..Smiling very
happy!. I also tend to go at a page and then look for Taito to choose which one
I read :).
About the 4.000.000: There is a reason behind this.
Actually I talked with a few people about the amount and most after being told
the though suggested one about that size ;) (You should have seen their faces
when I asked them about advise on ransom money ;)
I still try and get the Grammar Errors out, but I
haven't yet found a Beta that is native.
And yes I will go and read and review! Sorry that I
didn't do it sooner. See chapter RL.
PS. And I know the Plot trouble although in another
way ( I love Plotmon! :D LOL!) I have
an overactive Muse. One hell of a flighty thing. Half of the work is to keep
her to stay with one plot till the end. Even in this story she is offering me
alternative idea for some of the plots.
To Saria-the-green-haired:
Hi and thanks so much!!! And pretty good thinking about
the "she". It's not all there is but you got it definitely right :)
About the Parents……This will be the chapter for one of them. And for the siblings.
And now enough talk and one to the story!
Curtain Down The Show Is Over (or is it just beginning?)
Chapter 4
They had hoped that life
would give them a bit time.
A few days for rest.
But as fate was never
stopped by wishes it were only mere minutes before they entered Mat's changing
roomed and meet the accusing gazes of Hikari and Takeru.
The gasp he heard from his
side told him that Taichi hadn't known that they would be here either.
"You were at the concert?"
Fierce blue eyes, so much
like his own held his gaze "Actually we were close by and though about meeting
the two of you after concert. Didn't see much beside the last two songs. But we
were there for the mainshow. If that's what you mean."
Closing his yes it took a
few moment before he could bear to meet the hard stare of his brother again.
Reaching out to Taichi for
strength he was relived as his lovers hand enclosed with his own
"If we would have known
that you would be here we would have ......"
A snarl.....this time
coming from Hikari. "Would have what?" Her hands stemmed in her hips "Told us
to stay away. Given us Frontrow Seats for better view."
He lowered his gaze to the
floor. Not able to look into eyes that were so much like the ones of his lover.
Only with a rage that he had never seen in them before.
"We would have told you."
There was a moment of
silence and when he looked up he saw that both of them looked much calmer now.
Especially Takeru's posture didn't seemed to be like a spring anymore
"And why didn't you?. I
mean we are both not stupid. We know something is going on between you two for quiet
some. And from you little speech today I assume even before it become
actual. Why didn't you tell us. Did you
trust us so little."
Yamato closed his eyes to
turn out the pain that he heard.
"Did you really think we
would contemn you?"
"No" he heard Taichi silent
almost inaudible reply. "But we didn't want to risk it either "
Continuing the explanation
Yamato went on "We were talking about
telling you for a long time. And we were planning to do so in the near future.
But then everything happened so fast"
There was another moment of
silence broken only by Hikari's voice "Just don't do it again.....or be will
really mad!"
He looked at both of them.
Taken by surprise by the last line and even much more by the two Whirlwind that
suddenly came and wrapped their hands around him in a tight hug. With Taichi
following only seconds later by getting the same treatment.
"Does that mean we are
forgiven."
A glaring look.
"You are our brothers.
Together with everything. There is nothing that we couldn't forgive you."
"And now let's better go
home. Tomorrow I think we will be needed all our strength"
Yamato could only nod The trouble was definitely coming their way
now
Yet what he didn't know
was, that it wouldn't quit wait till tomorrow.
*~*~*~*
They arrived at their
department around 01:15 am.
Setting Hikari and Takeru
of at their respective flats had taken some time And both of them had declined
the invitation to go up and talk with the parents. They had too little strength
left in them after this night. To little to take the chance of a fight.
And by the time they
returned to their own flat the were proven right
It was a short gasp that
caught his attention and made him turn
around
For a moment
Yamato had been to afraid to ask Taichi what was going on. All he had seen had
been the sudden loss of any colour on his lovers Face. Then he saw the letter
he holding his shaking hands.
His mouth working as if it
was trying to form words. Yet none of them left to be heard.
Than after a few moment he
finally managed. "It is from my Dad"
Yamato closed his eyes and
shook his head with a sigh "He reacted the way you thought he would."
Nodding he picked up the
letter to read it to him. Yet from the
way Taichi's eyes stove away from the paper. Yamato didn't think that he really
needed to read those lines anymore.
Some things just burned
into your mind.
"Taichi.
Your Mother and I won't be home tomorrow between the time of 7 and 8.
We would ask you to take
this time and get everything that you still have left in this flat. Everything
that remains will be thrown away the following day. We would also ask you to time the transport so that we won't be
seeing each other.
Neither me nor your mother
wish to have any contacted with you.
Yagami"
Crushing the letter in his
hands he threw it into the corner with a force that spoke of his anger and
pain.
And Yamato did the only
thing he could as he walked up and wrapped his arms around him.
Holding him tight as harsh sobs
shock his body.
Yagami....He couldn't have
told Taichi in better words that we was no longer considered part of the
family. And they definitely couldn't get out all the things he had still left
there. Because even when Taichi was now living in Yamato's flat almost the
whole time. There were still a lot of things tat he had left at home. With the
time they had they would have to be happy to rescue the most necessary things.
He couldn't offer words
that would easy the pain. Nor did he want to try. All he did was hold him in
his arms till the first painwave had passed. Only sometimes whispering silent endearments and brushing his hand
through his hair.
It was well past one the
time they finally made it to bed. The knowledge that they had been right not
spending any real comfort to them.
Sleeping wrapped tightly
together, they knew...that from now on heir silent moments of happiness would be rare.
*~*~*~*
Loud pounding was what woke
him the next day and it took him a few moment to identify it as someone trying
to pound in the door. Yamato was still
sleeping. But it wasn't that uncommon that he could virtual sleep through
thunderstorm. Another round of pounding told him that it wasn't likely to stop
on own account. As he rubbed the sleep
out of his eyes a quick look at the clock told him that it was about 5:30. Only
another 30 minutes till they would have had to get up anyway
Rolling over to shake his
lover awaken.
It took him a bit till the
mumbled replies started to make sense and the blue eyes finally opened.
"Someone is here for visit" And from
the look in Yamato's eyes Taichi knew that he understood why Taichi didn't
really want to open the door alone.
Putting on shirts over
their boxers for the sake of decency they made it to the door just before the
next round would have started.
"Just a second" he heard
Yamato mumble sleepily as he reached for the key to unlock the door and open.
A moment of completely
silence followed as Yamato just stood there and stared. Only slowly making the
situation less tension when a smile started to spread on his face.
And as Taichi pushed by his
side he understood the bright smile that Yamato suddenly wore on his face.
Standing in front of them
were their friends smiling back at them .
"We heard from a little
bird that you might need help. And as we didn't have anything better to do. We
though that we could provide it." Koushirou shrugged lightly.
This was underlined by
heavy nodding from Jyou, Mimi and Sora.
And with to bright smile from their two younger siblings that stood next too
them.
A little bird indeed.
To be
cont.......
Sooo….this was chapter 4.
Next one will come sooner
this time. Probably around Saturday or Sunday.
