Mixed Relations

Disclaimer: I do not own the characters used in this story. Also, this is somewhat of a true story although I've altered it a lot so I could fit all of the characters. For the most part it's made up but it's somewhat true. If you've ever seen the Maury Show you might know what I mean. In the prologue Matt is 6 and Takeru hasn't been born yet. Oh ya, and I kind of forgot the parent's names so they won't be the same.

Prologue

          Ms. Takaishi woke up and found herself in a very bad position. She quickly jumped out of bed and clothed herself staring in shock at her ex-husbands brother. The night before she had run into him at a bar and most likely got drunk but after that is a blur. Not knowing what to do she ran out of the building and took the bus back to her own apartment.

          When she got home she collapsed on her bed and cried. She cried for hours on end until around 3:00pm when her phone began to ring. Quickly the woman composed herself and answered the phone, trying to sound as normal as possible. " Hello?"

          " Hello Aieka, it's me Shingo."

          At the sound of her ex-husbands name Aieka shuddered as the memories from this morning poured back into her memory. " I must never tell him what happened," she thought to herself. " Hi. How's it going?"

          " Matt's been okay, and I'm doing just fine also. I was wondering if you didn't have any other plans that is, if you would…join me for dinner tonight."

          Ms. Takaishi smiled to herself. " Of course I will. It would be nice seeing you again." Lately she and Shingo had been getting along a lot better than they had in the past. She was actually hoping that maybe they might get back together again.

          " Good. I'll pick you up at around 7pm. See you then." After that he hung up.

          " Knowing Shingo," she thought, " we'll be going to some fancy restaurant. I'd better pick out something to wear now then."

          After about an hour of trying things on and then deciding against them she finally had something to wear. It was a long black dress with spaghetti straps. It wasn't skintight but still showed the curves of her body. With the three hours that were remaining she styled her hair and applied her make-up. Finally at 6:45 she was ready to go.

          At exactly 7pm on the dot she heard a car horn beeping. She smiled as she left her apartment and met Shingo downstairs. From his attire she was correct in assuming they were headed towards a very fancy place.

          Shingo Ishida was dressed in a black tuxedo and was equipped with a single rose, which he handed to Aieka. As she took the rose her cheeks became bright red. He then took her hand and escorted her to the car.

          When they reached the restaurant Aieka could only stare in amazement. Here she was with her ex-husband and in the most expensive restaurant in the city. Inside the restaurant there were chandeliers everywhere. Soon she forgot all about what happened earlier that day and was enjoying herself.

          After they finished their meal they began to talk. " …And lately I think we've really started to communicate and get along again. What I mean to say is, well…" Shingo then got up from his seat and bent down on one knee.

          By now Aieka was smiling and tears of joy were threatening to roll down her cheeks. Everyone around them was staring at the amazing site. " Aieka, I know this time it'll work. I can feel it. Will you marry me?" With that he slipped a gorgeous ring onto her slender finger. 

          Unable to keep in her emotions the tears came and so did the excitement. With a bright smile on her face she nodded and got down to kiss him. " Yes, yes," she said right before pressing her lips into his. The people around them smiled and cheered for the newly engaged couple, only this time, they both knew the marriage would work.

          The wedding occurred the same month as the engagement.  Yomato was thrilled that his parents were going to be together again.

          The wedding itself was beautiful. It was outdoors during the early spring of May. For their second honeymoon they decided to go to England while their son stayed with a friend of his. The first night of their honeymoon they slept together, only this time Aieka felt right about it.

          A few months after they returned it was found that Aieka was four months pregnant. Everyone was happy about the news, even Yomato who was looking forward to being a big brother. Finally on February 14th Takeru Ishida was born.

          By now Aieka had forgotten about the incident with her husband's brother but unluckily for her, he hadn't.
