4 yrs later (Sukiyo is 5) (thanx for the 100+ reviews everyone!)
Morning
Several years have a passed and now Dark and Krad's baby girl has grown into hyper active 5 year old.
"Mommy, can we please go now?" asks Sukiyo, eager to arrive to her first day of school.
Krad sighs. "It's to early to leave right now."
"But - but if we don't leave now, I might miss all the stuff that happens at school," she says whining. Krad ignores her as he tends to the babbling infant in a highchair.
"I hope you aren't as eager as your big sister when it's time for you to go to school," Krad says removing the child from his highchair.
"Sukiii," the infant says as he points to Sukiyo and smiles.
"See, see mommy Izumi wants to go to school too," Sukiyo says as she tugs on Krad's pajama pant leg.
"Well, after you finish your breakfast, I wake up your father and after everyone is dressed - and if it's not to early, then I guess we can leave." Krad says as he tries to clean Izumi's breakfast off his face while Sukiyo stuffs all her breakfast in her mouth.
In Krad and Dark's room
After breakfast Krad quietly and slowly walks into the room, making sure not to wake up the sleeping Dark. Once near the bed he slowly climbs in.
"Daddy," Izumi says smiling and pointing.
"Shh," Krad says to Izumi wanting him to keep quiet.
"Shh," Izumi says, mocking Krad as he holds one finger over his mouth. Slowly Krad places Izumi next to Dark.
"Wake him up," Krad says whispering to the small boy. Izumi then looks at Krad grinning, all his teeth showing, then to Dark and back to Krad again. Suddenly in a playful manor he starts hitting Dark's face (Not hard! Playfully, not hard) while yelling incoherent words and laughing. Dark quickly sits up and holds Izumi away from him as the small child just giggles as he tries to squirm out of his father's hold.
"I'm awake, I am awake," Dark says, yawning as he looks at Izumi. Izumi grins as he turns and then reaches his hands out to Krad.
"Thanks for the wake up. I really appreciate it," Dark says sarcastically while handing the dark haired boy to Krad.
"You're welcome," Krad says with a smile as he gets off the bed.
"You know, it would have been nice if you woke me up a different way," Dark whines as he gets off the bed and starts to make it. "Like, giving me a kiss or taking away the covers. That would have been better than getting hit in the face by a 12 month baby boy."
"But it's more enjoyable for Izumi and I if you wake up that way," Krad says, placing the infant on the made up bed as he opens the closet. Dark rolls his eyes as he plays with the boy, making sure he won't fall off of the large bed. Krad then pulls a red dress out of the closet.
"So, what's the dress for?" Dark asks.
"It's so I won't have to explain to Sukiyo's teacher that I am a male who gave birth to our daughter," Krad says bending down to find the matching shoes.
"I could always go drop her off, and you could open the shop instead," Dark suggests. Krad turns and gives Dark a nasty look.
"Or, maybe not." Dark states quietly. After finding the shoes and setting them next to the dress, Krad turns and takes Izumi from Dark's grasp.
"I'm gonna go and dress Izumi and by the time I have him dressed, make sure Sukiyo's dressed and ready. When I get myself dressed, I expect to see the shop open," he says with a sickingly sweet smile. Dark just shudders and nods as Krad leaves the bedroom.
20 min later
"Sukiyo, are you ready to go?" Krad yells as he straps Izumi into a stroller. At that moment, Sukiyo slides into the entranceway with her shoes in hand. " I got - have to put my shoes on," she says, dropping her shoes on the floor and hurriedly sliding them on.
"Dark we're leaving now, I'll see you in a bit," Krad says while opening the front door. Dark's hand appears behind him as he waves goodbye to his "wife" and children.
"Ok, lets go mommy," Sukiyo says as she runs out the door.
At the school
"Lookie, mommy there's the school," Sukiyo says excitedly as she runs into a crowd of parents and children.
"Wait up!" Krad says, quickly following after Sukiyo. Izumi laughs as the stroller speeds up while Krad hurries to catch up to the blonde girl. After catching up to her, he looks around at the crowd around the outside of the school, seeming as though he was searching for someone.
"Mommy look, Nanami's here too," Sukiyo says as she points to her friend. She grabs Krad's hand and pulls him toward the small brown haired, green-eyed boy. 'Nanami,' Krad thinks. 'If he's here, then where is…' his thoughts trailed off after seeing a female holding Nanami's hand, looking like a certain red haired person he knew. 'It couldn't be.' Krad thinks in disbelief
"Daisuke?" Krad says aloud to the red haired person. The person yelps and then looks at Krad, face as read as a tomato.
"H-Hey Krad." Daisuke says. Krad blinks in shocks.
'He makes a really pretty girl,' he thinks. "I'm guessing that you're dressed for a similar reason as me," Krad says. Daisuke nods. "I'm doing it so I won't have to explain the birth thing and you?" Krad asks, looking at Daisuke.
"Satoshi said that if we want Nanami to have an ok first day of school, it would be good if I pretend to be a woman. You know, so no one will ask him why he has two dads." He replies.
Krad nods as he watches a man walk up to the two of them.
"Excuse me, ladies sorry for interrupting but its time for you to say your goodbyes," the man says with a smile. Daisuke and Krad look at him like he's a kidnapper.
"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Makoto Akimata. I'm the kindergarten teacher here at this school." Looks of relief appear on both parents' faces as they nod and then turn to their children. Daisuke bends down to his son's eye level and starts to straighten out his clothes.
"I'll pick you up after school alright," he says to the boy as Nanami nods at Daisuke and hugs him goodbye.
"Sukiyo, your father will be here to get you after school," he says before kissing her on her forehead. Sukiyo starts rubbing the kiss off of her forehead, her pigtails flying everywhere while she nods her head. Daisuke waves goodbye, before him and Krad walk away from the school,
Sidewalk Away From The School
"So, how have you been these past few days?" Daisuke asks.
"Exhausting. Izumi's been running around all over place and Sukiyo's been bouncing up and down with excitement at finally being able to go to school," Krad says chuckling. "What about you?" he asks
"Satoshi and I have been trying to get Nanami to express himself more. He's such a quiet child. We want him to be able to just go out and play with other kids when we take him to the park as opposed to holding my hand and not letting go," Daisuke says a bit sadly
"Well then it's good he's going to school. That might help him to express himself," Krad replies. Daisuke just nods. "Hey, would you like to come over for some tea and cake?" Krad asks.
"Well, I was planning to go grocery shopping, but I guess a visit will be alright." Daisuke says smiling.
10 min later, at Dark and Krad's house
"Welcome to-" Dark starts, but cuts himself off at seeing Krad. "Hey, how was it?" he asks
"Not so bad. Sukiyo was really excited," Krad replies as he starts to take the sleeping Izumi out of the stroller and took off his jacket. Dark then notices that Krad brought a very pretty and good-looking friend with him.
"And who is the lovely lady that you brought into our humble abode?" Dark asks, flashing a smile. Daisuke's face flushes and Krad just chuckles.
"Dark my dear, this is our good friend Daisuke," he says with a huge grin. Dark's jaw drops and his eyes go wide. He then jumps over the store counter and inspects Daisuke.
"Oh my god, it really is you!" Dark says in shock. Daisuke just smiles sheepishly.
"I invited him over for tea and cake - not to be inspected by you, so could you please take Izumi to his room and lay him down. I'll start making the tea." Krad says, handing Izumi to the shocked Dark.
After a long conversation and several slices of cake later, Daisuke took his leave
"Wow, I did not know that Daisuke would make such a good looking woman," Dark says, still in shock
"I was quite shocked myself when I first saw him," Krad replies while clearing the kitchen table.
"I wonder how he got his hair to lie flat like that," Dark thinks aloud.
"Maybe you should ask him later. Chances are, you'll probably see him when you pick up Sukiyo after school," Krad states while putting the dishes in the sink. Suddenly, the phone rings.
"I'll get it," Dark says as he picks up the phone. Several minutes later Dark has a worried look on his face.
"Krad, we need to go to the school. There was an incident with Sukiyo."
"Why? What happened?" Krad asks as he almost runs out of the kitchen, soapy plate still in hand.
"It seems that Sukiyo got into a fight with one of the older students at the school," Dark says as he hangs up the cordless phone. Krad sighs sadly.
"I'll go get Izumi and we'll meet you outside," Krad says as he goes toward the toddler's room
Sometime Later At the School
After arriving at the building, Dark and Krad are escorted towards the principal's office
"Mommy! Daddy!" Sukiyo yells excitedly from her chair.
Once seeing Sukiyo, Krad almost has a heart attack as he sees that Sukiyo is sporting a black eye and is missing one of her front teeth.
"Sukiyo Harumi Mousy, what in the world happened?" Krad says in a scolding mother-like tone. The blonde girl cringes at the sound of her full name.
"It wasn't my fault!" Sukiyo blurts out, jumping off the chair.
"What happened?" Dark asks the girl, trying to stay calm
"Well," Sukiyo starts off "Ya see Nanami and I were on the swings when this girl pushed him off. I got off and pushed her and told her that Nanami was on the swing first, so then she punched me in the face and I kicked her leg, and then she punched me in my mouth and my tooth fell out. The teacher put it in a plastic bag so the tooth fairy can get it, but that wasn't 'till after I kicked the girl in the stomach," Sukiyo says, explaining herself quickly. Krad just sits there stunned at what his eldest child just told them. Dark then kneels down to Sukiyo's height.
"So, did you kick her really hard?" Dark asks with a smirk. Sukiyo nods her head happily. Krad now feels like yelling at the both of them, but holds it since the door to the principal's office finally opens.
"You must be Sukiyo's parents. Please, come into my office." She says with a scowl.
After the talk with the teacher and principal and nowon the way home
"Sukiyo what am I going to do with you?" Krad says, looking down at Sukiyo.
"I didn't mean to hurt the girl, but she wasn't being nice to Nanami, and he's my bestest friend," Sukiyo replies with a pout.
"Understood, but next time, just tell a teacher. Don't push people," states Dark.
"Ok, so when we get home, can I have some ice cream?" Sukiyo asks in her nicest voice
"Maybe. But first, we need to put some ice on that eye." Krad says, worried about how he's going to survive Sukiyo and Izumi getting older.
