Another fic for Vampy, who is having a hard time…I hope things will get better for you soon, Vampy. You're too nice to have bad things happen to you.
Waiting for you
"Thank you, Kiba." Miko says to Kiba who is fixing the roof of the house of Miko's mother. There is a hole on the ceiling and it has water drips down from it every time when it rains. So Kiba offered to fix it for Miko's mom.
"You're quite welcome, Miko. It's all done now. There will be no more dripping." Kiba smiles to Miko.
"My mommy made a chicken potpie for Toboe and the other kids. You can take it back home for them."
"You don't have to do that!"
"We don't have to, but we want to." Emma grins.
"Thank you, Emma. Well, it's getting late, I better go. Good night." Kiba leaves Miko's house and head back to Toboe. It is tiring fixing the roof and Kiba is ready to get home and for some food and rest.
On the dark street, a group of thieves surround Kiba. "Hi there. We are really hungry and your pie smell pretty good." The thieves say.
"Take all his money…and give me that necklace." The leader of the thieves says.
"You're not taking the necklace, you thief!" Kiba says. The necklace is a gift from Toboe and it's important to Kiba.
"What did you say?" The thief leader shouts. All the thieve take out their knives and attack Kiba.
"Don't let him get away! Make him suffer painfully!" the leader shouts.
After a long fight, Kiba stops all the thieves and take them to the police station. The chief thanks Kiba, "they have been stealing from a lot of people, we did everything we can but we still weren't able to catch them."
"They messed with the wrong person." Kiba says. He gets out of the station and heads back to the orphanage. It's a very cold night and he is really tired from the fight. He is really hungry too. But the chicken potpie fell on the ground during the fight.
Kiba sighs. Maybe he can get something to eat in the morning after some sleep. He hates sleeping with an empty stomach but he doesn't want to wake Toboe and the kids up with noises of cooking.
Kiba decides not to sleep with Toboe tonight too, since he will probably disturbs Toboe's slumber. (No one will want to be waken in the middle of the night by a cold body sneaking up onto his bed.) The thought of not able to sleeping alone in a cold nightwithout Toboe makes Kiba even more depressed.
Finally, the exhausted Kiba arrives at the orphanage. He opens the door and sees Toboe sitting there. "Welcome home!" Toboe smiles.
"Toboe? How come you're still up?" Kiba asks.
"I'm waiting for you."
"You shouldn't have. You have been taking care of all the kids by yourself today while I was gone. You must have been exhausted!" Kiba sits down next to the fireplace.
"I'm fine. I thought you might be hungry. Eat and then we can go to bed." Says Toboe as he takes some food out from next to the fireplace. The teenager had kept the food there so it won't get cold.
Kiba is so happy. He isn't cold anymore, and he has warm food. What's more he doesn't need to sleep without Toboe. (yay!)
'Kiba, what happened to you? How come all your clothes are ripped? Did you get into a fight?" Toboe asks.
"I had a rough night, but it not important now. I am back and you're here. That's all that matters." Kiba says. He pulls the small boy to him for a warm embrace. They're trying to kiss when…
"I can't sleep!" One of the kids walks down the stairs.
"Uh-oh…" Toboe looks up. The other kids get out of their room and walk down the stairs too.
"We can't sleep!" All the kids shout as they gather around Toboe and Kiba.
"You guys…" Toboe sighs. Kiba laughs.
…The end
Sorry you are not with us, Vampy. I know you're having a rough time. Just remember we're always waiting for you and you'll always have a warm welcome when you come back. Love you!
