Part 4

CRASH!!!

"Eeeppp!!!" both Tsuzuki and Watari yelled in shocked, trying to hide the child nervously.

Tatsumi was surprised by the noise and suspected there's something wrong between the two older men. He moved closer to them. Hisoka on the other hand, kept as still as he can, he knew for sure, things will turn sour bitter if Tatsumi found out this matter.

"Hmmm, are you guys hiding something?" asked the secretary suspiciously.

"Err.. nothing.. it's nothing.. I accidentally dropped the beaker.." answered Tsuzuki nervously.

"Is that so, let me see…."

"Shoot!!!" yelled Watari as he panicked. He quickly grabbed Hisoka from behind and when he tried to hide him in the cupboard, Tatsumi caught him and snatched the child by the waist.

'What am I?? A toy? For God's sake, please stop dragging me around,' Hisoka nearly yelled out. He had tried his hardest to be patient.

"Big trouble…" both Tsuzuki and Watari sighed.

"Who's this child?" Tatsumi asked again and inspected the child carefully, his face few inches apart from the child. Hisoka blinked at the secretary a few times nervously.

"Oh no.. Tatsumi.. he's… err.." Tsuzuki said but was soon interrupted by Watari who dragged him to the corner of the lab.

"Tsuzuki, listen carefully, do you want to have your salary cut off?" whispered Watari.

Tsuzuki shook his head and took a look at Tatsumi who was busy inspecting the nervous child.

"Good! Then don't tell this to Tatsumi… he'll has both our pay cut off.. if he knows that what I've done to his favorite co-worker," continued Watari.

Tsuzuki nodded.

"Is this Kurosaki-kun………….."

"NOoooooooo!! He isn't!!" yelled both Watari and Tsuzuki instantly as the question was being asked.

"…………………" Hisoka said nothing but leaned helplessly on Tatsumi's chest as the secretary patted him on the back.

Tatsumi eyed them and the child confusedly. "He looks like Kurosaki-kun…"

"He's the child whom Tsuzuki picked up this morning. He's lost... and he said he wanted to stay with Tsuzuki," answered Watari confidently.

"I see…." Tatsumi smiled and hugged the child gently. "He's very adorable and huggable, no?"

Hisoka blushed and enjoyed the warm Tatsumi gave him.

Tsuzuki who was not very happy about Tatsumi being so closed to his sweetheart cried out, "Uwaaaaa… Tatsumi.. can you.. err.. give him back to me, please?"

"Oh, since I've nothing to do.. I'll look for after this kid for you, you two go back to work now," Tatsumi left them without any further explanation and took the child with him.

"NO Way!!! Watari!!! This is not fair!! He took away Soka-chan!! Uwaaa!!! He's a meanie!!! Soka-chan!!" cried Tsuzuki.

"Yare… yare… there.. there.. Tsuzuki… stop crying before you flooded the whole lab.." comforted Watari while patting Tsuzuki back. "Bon is so lovable, ne?"

---COOOOOOOOOOOOOC---

Meanwhile at the secretary's office, Tatsumi put down the child on the table and stared at him again. Hisoka who is not used at being stared, tried to turn away and kept his eyes squeezed shut.

'This is no good.. If he ever finds out who I am.. Watari and Tsuzuki will be in big trouble for lying to him. Watari, I hope you better do what you suppose to do!'

"Gomen, did I scare you?" Tatsumi caressed Hisoka's soft silky hair. "I'm sorry that I took you away from Tsuzuki-san. You have not spoken any words since then… are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Hisoka can sense the worries coming out of Tatsumi. "No! It's not like that!" he said involuntary.

"Ehhhh?"

Hisoka covered his mouth with both his small hands.

"Hmm.. so you can speak.. such an adorable child. Are you lost? Where are you from? Don't tell me, Tsuzuki-san kidnapped you because you looked like his beloved partner, no?"

"No… it wasn't like that.." blushed Hisoka. " I was lost and that nii-chan came and said he will take good care of me…"

Oh God, this isn't happening to me.. why am I lying! Yay hey, Good job Kurosaki Hisoka, you even lied to Tatsumi??

Tatsumi was amused by the child's sweet innocent reactions, he smiled and held up the child and hugged him like a teddy bear feeling so small, soft and cuddly under Tatsumi's arms. Hisoka eventually enjoyed being hugged; he had never been hugged before when he's this young. His family never even dared to come close to him. But still being hugged by Tatsumi, Hisoka found something else missing; it didn't have the same feeling being hugged by Tsuzuki. The warm yet sweet feelings from Tsuzuki were unique. No one can give him those feelings, only Tsuzuki.

"Etoo.. bouya, what's your name?" Tatsumi asked, his hand still caressing the boy's honey-blonde hair.

"Hi…so…," Hisoka blurted out half of it and quickly covered his mouth with his hands.

'No! Name.. name! I need to think of a name!'

"Hmmm?" Tatsumi raised his eyebrow and shifted the boy so they are facing each other.

Hisoka tensed up, he doesn't know what to do anymore, unable to answer the secretary's question.

"You… are.. you.."

SLAM!!

Before Tatsumi can finish his sentences, his office's door slammed open and there stood in front of the door was no other than the EnMaCho's famous crybaby, Tsuzuki Asato.

"Mou.. Tatsumi, he needs me!!!" cried Tsuzuki. "I've finished my job already… so can I have him back, please?"

"Tsuzuki-san, that's unexpected, you finished all the paperwork I gave you this morning?" asked Tatsumi. "You can finish those less than an hour?"

"Yes!! I've finished!! Just give him back to me…"

Hisoka who was just sitting quietly stared at Tsuzuki. 'I don't believe you, Tsuzuki… you'll be the first laziest one who breaks the record of finishing the paperwork in less than an hour.'

"If that's so.. then ok, you can have him back. Btw, how's Kurosaki-kun?"

"He's fine.." said Tsuzuki as he held Hisoka in his arms protectively. "Thank you."

"Oh wait…" said Tatsumi before he leaned down and gave the child a kiss on the cheek.

Both Hisoka and Tsuzuki froze. Hisoka was blushing deeply and for Tsuzuki…..

"TATSUMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!"
