A Yami no Matsuei Thanksgiving II
by F4 girl
Hisoka senses Tsuzuki outside the door and goes to open it.
"How did you know I'm here? Wait, that's a silly question." Tsuzuki gets into the house with a huge box in his hand.
"What is this?" Hisoka asks.
"Our Thanksgiving dinner." Tsuzuki says excited.
"That's a lot of food for the two of us."
"It's okay! We can put the leftover in the refrigerator. You finish your reports. I'll start cooking."
Hisoka sits at the kitchen table and continues writing his report. Tsuzuki hums delightful melody while he stuffs the turkey. He puts the turkey into the oven, starts washing the vegetables, boils the potatoes, bakes the yams, and gets the cranberry sauce. Tsuzuki works hours for their Thanksgiving dinner.
Hisoka always hated Thanksgiving dinner with turkey. His parents were never home at Thanksgiving. While everyone was spending the holiday eating turkeys with their family and loved ones, Hisoka had to eat it alone in his huge and cold room. The thoughts of Thanksgiving make him feels miserable. But as Tsuzuki works around him to make the turkey dinner, Hisoka feels less and less depressed. Tsuzuki's high spirits warms Hisoka's heart.
"Dinner is ready! I'll set the table." Tsuzuki says.
"Let me set it. I'm finished with the reports." says Hisoka as he cleans the table and set it.
Tsuzuki washes his hand. Then he sits down opposite to Hisoka and starts stacking the Hisoka's plate there are no more space.
"Everything looks fantastic." Hisoka says.
"Eat!" Tsuzuki says. He watches happily as Hisoka takes a bite.
"Taste wonderful." Hisoka says. Tsuzuki watches happily as Hisoka eats everything on the plate.
Tsuzuki starts eating and drops his fork. Hisoka asks, "What's the matter?" .
"The food. It's horrible!" Tsuzuki says.
"You don't like it? I'll finish it." Hisoka takes Tsuzuki's plate and starts eating.
"Stop it! What are you doing? The dinner taste horrible!" Tsuzuki shouts.
"It's wonderful to me." Hisoka says.
"How can it be wonderful?" Tsuzuki says.
"You're here eating it with me, that makes it wonderful. I hated Thanksgiving because my parents were never there. Every year, they ordered the chef to cook me turkey and then left for their friends and business associates' parties. I ate every Thanksgiving dinner by myself."
"But at least your chef cooked good tasting turkeys!"
"The chef didn't care about me. He didn't even want to cook for me. Since I'm not my dad, he didn't want to impress me. I can sense his coldness in the food. It might taste good but it felt horrible. You spend hours making sure this will be a perfect dinner for me; and I feel every minute of it."
"Feel?"
"I feel how much you care about me when I eat this. It makes me feel special."
"You're special." Tsuzuki smiles.
Hisoka blushes, "There is a lot of Turkey left. Will you make me Turkey sandwich tomorrow?"
"I would love to."
Hisoka finishes his plate and says, "I'm stuffed! I need a walk. Why don't we go and get some dessert. It'll be my treat. You like ice cream or apple pie?"
"It's fine. You don't like to waste money."
"Money isn't wasted if spent on love."
"You don't love dessert."
"I don't mean dessert. I mean you." Hisoka can't believe he just said that. He blushes and walks toward the door.
Tsuzuki grabs Hisoka arm and asks, "Did you just say you love me?"
Hisoka blushes a brighter shade of red. Tsuzuki brushes Hisoka's soft hair and plants a soft kiss on Hisoka's forehead. He then leans to Hisoka's ear and whisper, "I love you too, angel."
Histoka smiles. Tsuzuki puts his arm around Hisoka's shoulder and says, "Let's go."
They walk down the street and omeone ruffles Hisoka's hair from the back. The couple turns around and sees Tatsumi and Watari smiling at them.
"Hello, going to the cake house?" Watari says.
"Yeah, like you can't guess that about me." Tsuzuki says.
"We are going, too. Want to go together?" Tatsumi asks.
"That will be wonderful!" Tsuzuki cheers.
The four Shinigami arrive at the cake store and order 5 apple pies a la mode. (Tsuzuki got 2 cause he didn't have any dinner ^__^) Hisoka eats happily. He doesn't have to spend his Thanksgiving alone anymore. He can spend his thanksgiving with his love one and new family from here on forth.
