Author's notes: Gomen, but in
this chapter, I didn't think Aidou would fit in here so I say that she finally
gotten married and left the house. And I might have Tasuki's parents OOC too,
so save the free fruits and vegetables for AFTER the chapter ends! @.@
Chapter 6- Meet the Parents!
Rei was confused at why Tasuki was so distressed
"What's wrong? That doesn't seem too bad" she said, trying to understand.
Tasuki looked at her and put his hand over his eyes "Your lack of knowledge
brings tears to my eyes!" he murmured. Rei narrowed her eyes and sweatdropped
"What the hell is that supposed to mean?!" she stated. Kouji, who overheard
Tasuki's decision, walked into the room and started to cry SD "Oh, Rei-chan!
You were such a sweet girl! I knew you well!" Rei sweatdropped 'Is it that
bad?!' she thought. Tasuki packed a few things for the short trip and
ordered Kouji to get his horse ready. A few minutes later, Tasuki and Rei got
on the horse and left for the outskirts of the Taito prefecture.
***************************
Tasuki and Rei arrived at the Kou
household late in the evening. Rei noticed that Tasuki was stressed about
something so she held his hand and smiled at him, causing him to smile back
fondly. Tasuki noticed that his house wasn't as noisy as it usually was. But
that would be normal on account that Aidou just got married and moved out. When
the duo got up to the door, Tasuki took a deep breath and opened it, tightening
the grip on Rei's hand. "OI! MA! IM HOME!!!" he shouted. He quickly turned
towards Rei, who was a little worried when she felt the floor beneath her feet
start to tremble lightly "Babe, don't worry! If your knocked unconscious that's
normal, ok! And try to ignore ma's overbearin' nature!" "SHUNU!!" a high
pitched, motherly voice shouted. Rei hid behind Tasuki and looked at the
elderly woman who just ran into the room. Rei's eyes could of popped out of her
skull. Tasuki's mother was about 5''5 and had HUGE breasts. Rei looked at her
own and then looked up 'And I thought MINE were too big?!' she thought
in disbelief. "Shunu, you good for nothing boy!! Why don't ya come home to see
your poor mother more often!? Running around with those hooligans! Its such a
bad influence!" Tasuki sweatdropped and sighed. Rei decided to step into view
so that Tasuki's mother could stop her lecturing on Tasuki. Rei smiled when his
mother was quiet. Tasuki smiled at Rei, his eyes seemed to be stating the
message "Thanks" Tasuki pointed to Rei "Uh...Ma, this is my girlfriend" Rei
bowed respectfully "Konbanwa, Mrs. Kou! Watashi wa Rei Mikage desu!" Mrs. Kou's
eyes seem to fill with tears. Rei thought she did something wrong. Mrs. Kou ran
over to the duo, viciously shoved Tasuki out of the way and embraced Rei in a
death grip. "Ahhhh its about time you do something right, boy!" Tasuki blushed
with embarrassment. Rei sweatdropped and heard her back crack "Ughhh" she
muttered. "She's so kawaiiiii!" Mrs. Kou exclaimed. Rei was beginning to
suffocate on account her head was buried in Mrs. Kou's breasts. Tasuki twitched
and said "Ma, why don't we go see dad!" he said, trying to get Rei off the
hook. Mrs. Kou finally released Rei, who stood there, holding her chest and
gasping. Mrs. Kou turned to Tasuki and in the process knocking Rei to the floor
with her breasts "That's a good idea! He would love to meet your new bride!!"
Tasuki bent over and helped Rei off of the ground. Mrs. Kou walked into another
room to get Mr. Kou. Its been less than 5 minutes and already Rei's body was in
pain. Mr. Kou came walking into the room slowly. Surprisingly he was shorter
than Mrs. Kou. Tasuki waved casually "Hey dad" he said. Mrs. Kou patted her
husband on the back violently "Honey, this is Rei Mikage! She and Shunu are a
couple!" Rei blushed and developed a sudden interest of the floor. "Ahhh she's
a pretty one! About time you make a commitment, son!" Mr. Kou said weakly.
Tasuki slapped his forehead. Mrs. Kou walked into the kitchen "C'mon! You kids
are just in time for dinner!" During dinner, Tasuki and Rei explained to Mr.
and Mrs. Kou about the Suzaku no Tennyo situation and how they met. At the end
of dinner, sake was served but Rei refused and took juice instead. Mrs. Kou
lifted her glass up and said "A toast to my future daughter in law...Rei Kou!"
Rei facefaulted "May you give us lots of grandchildren and your wedding be in
june!!" Tasuki blushed, but to Rei's surprise, didn't say anything. Rei blushed
and buried her head in her hands. 'Oh gods, now Im starting to believe
Kouji!' she thought.
***************************
After dinner, Mrs. Kou felt a little bit
hungrier and picked up a biscuit from the remaining bowl on the table. Rei who
felt she over ate, couldn't eat another bite. Mrs. Kou noticed the butter by
Rei and said sweetly "Rei-chan, could you past me the butter?" Rei nodded and
picked up the small saucer of butter and handed it to Mrs. Kou. Mrs. Kou stood
up to reach over and grab the butter, but accidentally stumbled and knocked the
butter plate of out Rei's hand. Rei had her eyes closed and was puzzled when
she felt her hand in something soft and warm. Rei opened her eyes and looked at
her hand in horror as it was stuck between Mrs. Kou's cleavage! "OH GOD!!!" Rei
shouted loudly. Tasuki stood up immediately "Awww shit!" he shouted. Rei tried
to pull her hand out "Its stuck!!" she said. Mrs. Kou patted Rei's arm "Now
honey, its alright! This has happened before! Im a pro at these things. This is
not as bad as when Shunu got his head stuck!" Rei sweatdropped and felt as if
she was going to cry on account of all the embarrassment. Mrs. Kou turned to
Tasuki "Shunu get the pliers!" then she turned to her husband "Get the oil and
crowbar!" Rei cringed.
***************************
It took about 20 minutes and enough
cursing to wake the dead to get Rei's hand out of Mrs. Kou's cleavage. Rei sat
in the bathtub, which was the first place that came to her mind on where she
wanted to go. The colour was finally returning to her hand and she sighed,
still feeling incredibly embarrassed. The candle light in the bathroom was
starting to flicker, Rei sighed again, too lazy to get another candle. A few
seconds later, the candle burned out, leaving only the light from the crescent
moon outside. Rei splashed some water on her face. Rei sank deeper in the
bathtub when she remembered that after Tasuki pulled out her hand, Mr. Kou's
dentures flew out after the hand and Mr. Kou claming that he's been looking for
them for weeks. Rei shook her head and got out of the bathtub, wrapping herself
in a towel. Rei cursed softly when she remembered she had forgotten her pajamas
and only brought her underwear. She was startled when she felt arms embrace her
from behind and soft breathing on her neck "Sorry 'bout all of this" Tasuki
said. Rei blinked "How long have you been in here?!" she asked. "I just came
in, I noticed the candle light was out, I thought you were done" Rei didn't say
anything. She jumped slightly when Tasuki moved some of her hair out of the way
and began kissing her neck. Rei closed her eyes as Tasuki's lips rested on the
bottom of her neck. All of a sudden, the candlelight came on. "Shunu!" Mrs. Kou
shouted. Tasuki looked at his mother, still on taking his lips off of Rei's
neck for a few more seconds. "Shunu, stop that! You don't walk in on Rei-chan
when she's taking a bath! It seems as if she's still a virgin!" Tasuki finally
let go of Rei and said, walking past his mother, "She's my woman, I can do what I want with her" Rei blushed 'Ok,
I'll ignore that' she thought. Mrs. Kou walked up to Rei and noticed a
purplish mark where Tasuki was kissing "Oh he left his mark, I have some cover
up for that if you want" Mrs. Kou said. Rei blushed, putting her hand over
Tasuki's 'mark' "No that's alright" Mrs. Kou nodded and handed Rei a nightshirt
"Here sleep in this tonight, its very comfortable" Rei smiled and nodded,
grateful that she forgot about yesterday "Arigato" Mrs. Kou nodded and left the
bathroom for Rei to change.
***************************
Rei didn't get to spend much time with
Tasuki on account Mrs. Kou dragged her into her room for some so-called 'girl
talk'. The mere thought made Rei cringe, but she was willing to make the best
of it. In Mrs. Kou's room, Rei and Mrs. Kou sat and drank some tea. "Well,
Rei-chan, I should tell you now that Shunu doesn't know how to do certain
things very well" Rei arched an eyebrow. Tasuki seemed independent enough.
"What can't he do?" Rei asked, knowing she would regret it. Mrs. Kou took a
deep breath "Okay, Shunu can't cook, clean, sweep, wash dishes, do laundry or
polish that blasted tessen of his!" Rei sighed, she was growing a little angry
but didn't dare to argue with Mrs. Kou, she valued her life more than that.
Instead, Rei sweatdropped and stayed silent. "Well, look on the bright side, he
can defend you very well!" Rei smiled weakly.
***************************
Tasuki sat down next to his father, who
didn't say anything from after he washed off his dentures. Tasuki noticed that
his father didn't realize that he was sitting next to him "Oi, pop!" Tasuki
said. Mr. Kou turned towards Tasuki "Ah, Shunu, I didn't see you there" Tasuki
sweatdropped. "Shunu," Mr. Kou put a hand on Tasuki's shoulder "I think its
time you and I had a man to man talk" Tasuki sank in his chair.
***************************
When Mrs. Kou came to the topic of sex and
pregnancy, an hour later, Rei knew that she had to get out and fast. "Um,
excuse me Mrs. Kou, but I ah...need to get a bra" Rei said, slightly
embarrassed. Mrs. Kou smiled, "Its ok! You can use one of mine!" she said
getting up and rummaging through some drawers. Rei's right eye began to twitch
when Mrs. Kou pulled out an article of clothing that looked like a very large
pillowcase. She handed it to Rei, who in return thought sarcastically 'I
thought you used something like this to cover Connecticut when it rains'
Rei needed to find an excuse "Ummm arigato and all, but I uh, have a bra that's
from my world and its used for sleeping in but thanks anyway" she said, handing
the large bra back to Mrs. Kou. Mrs. Kou smiled "Ok honey, you go change while
I'll get the beds ready" Rei nodded and walked out of there as fast as she
could. When Rei walked into the living room, she almost fell over when she
heard Mr. Kou talk to Tasuki (who looked as if he was staring at the sky,
snoring) about how when you get older, sex would be much harder to enjoy.
Tasuki soon woke up and sighed when he realized his father was still rambling.
When he saw Rei, he left his father and walked up to her. Tasuki and Rei walked
to the living room and sat down on the couch. "Oi, sorry about this, my parents
are real nuts when it comes to my love life" Tasuki said, sighing. Rei smiled
"Its okay I guess, but they act like we're actually getting married" Tasuki
didn't say anything. Rei's smile slowly faded "Tasuki?" she said, putting a
hand on his shoulder. He jumped "Oh sorry. I just started spacin'!" Rei noticed
a hint of disappointment in his voice. Mrs. Kou walked into the room, "Okay!
Its bed time!" Rei nodded and she and Tasuki stood up. "Okay, I think that you
two should sleep together on the honeymoon, so Rei, you come with me and Shunu,
you sleep with your father in your room!" Before Tasuki had a say in the
matter, Rei was dragged away.
***************************
The night was horrible. Rei had to share a
bed with Mrs. Kou. Rei barely had any blankets and was curled up in a little ball
on the side. Tasuki wasn't doing so well either. His father would always scoot
up against him and almost drooled on Tasuki's nightshirt. Rei sighed when she
couldn't get to sleep 'I want Tasuki...' she thought. Unfortunately,
Rei's thoughts were disturbed when Mrs. Kou rolled over and knocked Rei off of
the bed. Rei sweatdropped. Rei stood up and decided to sleep somewhere else.
After Mr. Kou tried to put his arm around Tasuki for the 6th time,
Tasuki grew fed up "Fuck this, im sleepin' somewhere else!" he muttered. Tasuki
threw the blankets off and walked out of the room.
***************************
Within the darkened halls of the Kou
household, Tasuki and Rei both crept around, unaware of each other's presence.
When they bumped into each other, Tasuki thought it was his mother and Rei
thought it was Mr. Kou, so they both started giving excuses like "I was
thirsty" or "I needed some fresh air" When they realized who they were talking
to, they both embraced each other as if they had just escaped death itself.
They each told their story and walked over to the couch. After a while, they
both grew tired, Tasuki allowing Rei to sleep on his chest, was the last one to
fall asleep.
