SOMEWHERE DOWN THE ROAD
CHAPTER 7 Settling Down

Early in the morning at the mansion of the Three Lights the scene became like a dormitory full of young ladies with their parents and guardians checking the whole place. Haruka also dropped off Hotaru early that morning. And once again the amazing Taiki managed to call a restaurant to cater breakfast meal early in the morning in a short notice. The Three Lights and the rest of the guest ate their breakfast buffet style. When everyone was done stuffing themselves, all of them got together at the backyard by the playground to enjoy the scenery. Each family or family member of the scouts were happily chatting with the other families and the Three Lights except for one person.

Makoto: "Excuse me everyone I need to get something in my bedroom."

Kakyuu and Hotaru noticed the sadness across Makoto's face. Before Makoto could stand up and walk away. . .

Kakyuu: "Mako can I come with you?"

Hotaru: "Me too, can I tag along with you?'

Makoto: "Sure, lets go."

The three went inside the mansion and went up in Makoto's room. While downstairs by the playground. . .

Aunt Michiko: "Ok Minako, I want you to behave yourself. Always come home early not early in the morning. Don't give your friends any problems. When the school starts don't skip classes. Wake up early. And don't forget to visit me. Your late father told me to take care of you and your mother in England trusted me to care for you here. So please don't forget everything I said.

Yaten pop-up behind Minako putting his arm around her shoulder and hold her tightly. Yaten gave his cutest smile to Minako's aunt.

Yaten: "Don't worry Aunt Michiko I'll take good care of her."

Aunt Michiko: "Am I hearing you correct? You're calling me aunt. You used to call me Miss Aino now aunt. Are you feeling fine?" (she gave Yaten a funny look) "Should I get scared for Minako Mr. Kou?"

Yaten: (with a puppy dog eyes expression and a combination of whimpering sound) "Why is everyone keep on telling me that? I am a very nice person."

Minako: (mumbling) "Maybe when you're sleeping."

Yaten: "I heard that."

Manako: "Oh, so you're not totally deaf after all."

Yaten: (trying to bite his own tongue he thought) 'Calm down Yaten, this is Mina the love of your life. Be patient, be very very patient.' (he smiled once again to Minako) "Yes, Mina anything you say."

Taiki overheard what Minako's aunt told Yaten and Yaten's utterance of his hurt feelings. He then quickly whispered on Yaten's ear.

Taiki: "Because they can all see you're one horny dog." (after that he turned around and left)

Yaten: (yelling after Taiki) "I'll get you later Taiki!"

Minako: (noticing Yaten's arm around her she quickly brushed it off) "Will you please keep your touchy hand to yourself Yaten. Don't worry Aunt Michiko I can take care of myself." (looking at Yaten's face) "Especially I don't need somebody to take care of me. I have Artemis.

Aunt Michiko: (looking at Artemis on the floor next to Minako) "But he is just a cat."

Minako: (still looking at Yaten) "But a very brave cat ready to use his sharp as a razor claws if somebody's thinking of taking advantage of me!"

Yaten: "Why are you looking at me like that? And why are you mad?"

Minako: "Can't you tell why?"

Yaten: "Ok , I give up."

Minako: "That's the first."

Yaten: "I'm not gonna utter one more word."

Minako: "Well fine by me."

Yaten: "Good." Minako: "Good."

Then the two turned away from each other. Aunt Michiko was left standing by herself in surprise.

Aunt Michiko: "What was that all about?"

Usagi: (coming from the side) "They're been doing that a lot lately. But don't worry Aunt Michiko they're gonna get a long just fine you'll see."

Aunt Michiko: "I hope you're right Usagi."

At the other end of the playground Taiki is happily conversing with Ami and Dr. Mizuno, Ami's mother.

Dr. Mizuno: "Ami told me that you're the one who bought this place Taiki."

Taiki: "Hai, Dr. Mizuno but with the help of my brothers', my cousin's, and my own savings."

Dr. Mizuno: "Don't call me Dr. Mizuno just call me mom."

By this time Ami and Taiki blushed in crimson.

Ami: "What?! Why?! But we're no. . ."

Taiki: (locking Ami in his arms) "It will be my honor to call you mom."

Dr. Mizuno: "I knew you are meant for each other. Even when you went home for three years I know one day you'll come back for Ami." (holding Ami's hand) "Oh Ami, I'm so happy for you. You found a smart and responsible man. And not to mention a great singer too."

Ami: "But mom, I wan . . . .

Taiki: "Ami wants to tell you that I'm not that great."

Dr. Mizuno: "But you are son, you are."

All of a sudden they heard a beeping sound.

Dr.Mizuno: :Excuse me I need to take this call."

Dr. Mizuno walked away for the meantime. Still locked in Taiki's embrace, Ami turned around to face him.

Ami: "And what do you think you are doing?"

Taiki: "Enjoying holding you inside my arms?"

When Ami realized that she was still in Taiki's arms she blushed again and tried to free herself from him, but Taiki doesn't want to let her go.

Ami: " Aren't you gonna let me go?" Taiki: "No, I like it like this."

Ami: "Why are you giving the wrong impression to my mother?"

Taiki: "Do you really want to blow her bubbles? Didn't you see how happy she was to see us together?"

Ami: "Yes, but . . . ."

Taiki: "We'll talk about this later, here she comes."

Dr. Mizuno: "I'm sorry kids I need to go, they need me in the hospital. Taiki take good care of Ami, do you hear?"

Taiki: "You can count on me mom I'll guard her with my life."

Taiki grinned at Ami while Ami gave him a very odd look.

Dr. Mizuno gave each of them a kiss on the cheeks.

Dr. Mizuno: "Take care of him, ok? I love you Ami."

Ami: (kissed her mother) "Uh - ha. I love you too mom."

Dr. Mizuno: "Take care Taiki, I love you son."

Taiki: "I love you too mom."

Dr. Mizuno: "Say goodbye to the other for me,please. And see you later."

Taiki and Ami: "Goodbye mom."

Not too far from the scene Seiya and Usagi witnessed everything and they gave each other a high five.

Seiya: "Score ten points for Taiki. Ha...ha...ha...ha...ha..."

Usagi: "You go Ami. I wonder when is the wedding? Hee...hee...hee...hee...hee..."

Seiya: "Let's ask them later."

Kenji came up behind Seiya and Usagi. He started to pat Seiya on the back shoulder.

Kenji: "It's good to have you back my son."

Usagi's thoughts: 'Eeeeeeeeeek! Son?!'

Shingo:(doing a secret handshake with Seiya) "Nice to see you again bro."

Usagi's thoughts: 'Aaaaaaaaaaah! Bro?!'

Ikuko: (hugging Seiya) "We miss you so much."

Usagi's thoughts: 'Thank goodness mama's acting normal.'

Ikuko: "Especially Usagi, she misses you so much almost every morning she's dreaming about you saying your name. . . "

Usagi's thoughts: 'Noooooooooooooo! Oooooooops to late!'

Usagi tried to covered her mother's mouth.

Usagi: "To much info mama better stop. He...he...he...he...he..."

She then let go of her mother's mouth.

Ikuko: "Gomen nasai."

Kenji: "Arigato Seiya for letting them stay here and inviting us to see your place."

Seiya: "You are welcome sir, I always feel like I'm a part of your family."

Shingo: "Cool! So can I stay here too?"

Usagi: "IIE! You can't."

Shingo: "And why not? Maybe you're planning to do something to Seiya and you don't want me to see it. Huh?"

Usagi: (slaps Shingo behind the head) "IIE, BAKA! It's because you're still in high school and this is far away from your school."

Seiya was blushing profusely upon hearing all the teasing between Usagi and Shingo.

Shingo: "It's ok I don't mind commuting for one hour."

Seiya: "You're always welcome to visit here my brother."

Shingo: "Arigato my brother."

Usagi: (slapping her forehead) "Geez, am I missing something here?"

Ikuko: "Now that everything was settled we have to go Usagi, Seiya. I have a lot of things to do at home."

Kenji: "Don't forget to visit us son maybe we can have a one on one match of basketball."

Seiya: " Yes sir, I'll remember that."

Shingo: "Ne, Seiya don't forget to lock your door at night Usagi might come in and . . . ."

Usagi punches Shingo on the side. Shingo starts to run away laughing followed by an angry Usagi.

Usagi: "SHINGO COME BACK HERE I'M NOT DONE WITH YOU YET!!!"

Everyone sweatdropped. When all of these were happening, not to far Rei, Yucchiro and Rei's grandfather were talking about the things that should get done in the temple. Rei as usual talking to her grandfather and Yucchiro in a very demanding tone of voice, as a matter of fact she's almost yelling. This made the others to look at them.

Rei: "Grandpa don't forget to take your medicine everyday. Don't hire anymore strangers to work in the temple. You already have Yucchiro. And don't scare all the girls that comes to the temple. Do you understand?"

Grandpa: "Rei you're treating me like a child I know what I'm doing."

Rei: (facing Yucchiro) "And you, don't give in to all the silly things that grandpa wants to do. Don't be so lazy. Always keep the temple clean. It's embarassing if other people going to see a dirty temple."

With this kind of treatment from Rei in front of their friends made Yucchiro felt small. Until something happen, Yucchiro snapped he reach the end of his rope. He's been very patient from Rei's nasty attitude towards him since the first time he saw and fell in love with her. Yucchiro briskly grabbed Rei by the shoulders and pulled her into a deep passionate kiss on the mouth. This made everyone hold their own breath. After a minute Yucchiro broke the kiss and . . .

Yucchiro: "I'm so sorry Rei. You know that I don't need to work at the temple. You know that I'm also well off with my life. But why do you think I stick around even if you keep on throwing crap on my face every single day? It's because I love you since the day I first saw you, five years ago until today and I will love you for the rest of my life. Don't worry about grandpa I'll take care of him and also the temple while you're gone. Goodbye Rei. Let's go Grandpa."

Grandpa: "So you finally got a back bone. Good for you my boy, good for you."

Yucchiro: "Arigato Grandpa."

Rei was paralyzed on the ground that she was standing after the kissed and Yucchiro's speech. Yucchiro and Grandpa started to go to the front lawn but before they could get far away Rei called out.

Rei: "Yucchiro wait! Don't go!"

Yucchiro turned around and saw Rei running to him. He shut his eyes real tight and waited for the impact of Rei's hand across his face. But instead of pain he felt pleasure spread all over him. Rei returned his deep passionate kiss on his mouth. Rei broke the kiss. Yucchiro opened his eyes and look intently into Rei's lavander eyes.

Yucchiro: "What was that for?"

Rei: "Are you really this clueless or what? I love you too knucklehead. I'm sorry I hurt you I'll try my best to control this sharp tongue of mine from now on. And I'll come home every weekend to help at the temple, also to spend every minute that I can have with you. I love you so much Yucchiro."

After this they kissed again. They pulled away from each other when they noticed the other people around them.

Inside the mansion up in Makoto's bedroom three ladies were having their own little chat.

Kakyuu: "Mako why do have a gloomy face? What is wrong? You don't like you're bedroom?"

Makoto: "Oh, no Kakyuu. The room is great it just that I miss my late parents particularly when there are gatherings like this."

Hotaru: "Don't be sad Mako. We're here for you."

Kakyuu: "I feel the same way too. I miss my mother and father. And when that happens I just think about my cousins the starlights and my new friends which are all of you."

Makoto: "Thank you kakyuu, Taru for cheering me up."

Kakyuu and Hotaru helped Makoto to unpacked. And after a while. . .

Makoto: "I wish Kakasui is here. I miss him so much."

Kakyuu: "Who is Kakasui?"

Hotaru: "He is Makoto's fiance."

Kakyuu: "Why didn't you invite him today?"

Makoto: "Because he teaches yoga and martial arts in a camp, he does that every summer."

All of a sudden they heard Hotaru laughing so hard in the corner.

Kakyuu: "What happen? What is so funny?"

Hotaru: "I just remember Kakasui's bald head and Seiya, Taiki, and Yaten's long hair. Maybe we should ask them to cut it off and make a wig for Kakasui."

Makoto: "Oh Taru , you and your crazy ideas. He can grow hair if he wants to but he rather have a bald head. He said it was less maintenance."

Kakyuu: "If you think about it that's true. When he take a bath he doesn't need to shampoo, dry any hair or comb in the morning when he wakes-up. Maybe I should shave my head too."

Hotaru:(laughing harder) "Yes, I can imagine you Kakyuu without a hair. You look so weird."

Kakyuu walked by the balcony facing the backyard. And saw what was happening downstairs.

Kakyuu: "Hey girls come here, look. We have a new love birds in the group. Let us go down and congratulate them."

Makoto: "I knew it that one of these days those to will going to get together. Ohhhh! How sweet."

Hotaru: "Let's go I think Haruka papa and Michiru mama is coming soon to pick me up also."

When all the guest left, the Three Lights went to the recording studio to record their first comeback single. The rest of the girls decided to go for more furniture shopping.
