A/N: I'm sorry I haven't been updating. To tell you the truth, I forgot about these fics. I guess it's easy to forget when you have so many other things that need to be taken care of. Anyway, here's the fourth, long-awaited chapter.

God knows she wasn't too fond of curry, but it was the fastest thing to prepare on such short notice. "Here you go, Queen Madoka. Enjoy." Ayumu sighed as he set the plate in front of her.

"Heat and serve curry again, Ayumu?" the woman complained as she stared at the food.

"You don't like it, you don't have to eat it." The brunette replied as he turned back to the kitchen to start on Rutherford's dinner.

"You are so rude, you know that! I come home from work and you give me attitude and serve me curry for the third night in a row! What's with you?" Madoka frowned as she spooned some curry into her hungry mouth, deciding that it was better than nothing.

"You wouldn't understand." Ayumu sighed.

"You're not still involved with the Blade Children, are you?" Madoka questioned, hitting the nail on the head.

'Damn. Again with the Blade Children?' the brunette asked himself. All in all, it was pointless to hide anything anymore from her, and he was getting tired of keeping secrets. "So what if I am? It's none of your business."

"Like it or not, Ayumu, you are my business." Madoka countered. "Nice try. But you're going to tell me everything…Just what are you hiding from me?"

"You don't want to know…" The frustrated teen sighed.

"Yes I do, now answer me, Ayumu!" The woman yelled as she pushed her chair back and stood up. "Stop trying to get around it! I know you're involved with the Blade Children in some way, so just tell me already!"

"Ugh…" Little Narumi groaned and ran a hand through his hair. 'She's never going to shut up. There's no way she'll let me off the hook with this one.' He thought. "Madoka, sit down."

"Uh…" The woman blinked, then sat back down in her seat. "Ok, spill it, Ayumu."

Ayumu turned his head to make sure she was sitting, then turned to face her. "You're right. I am involved with the Blade Children. But it's not for the reasons you think I am."

"Then what are your reasons, then?" the woman frowned. "If not for finding Kiyotaka…."

"I could care less about him right now." The younger brother stated, shocking his sister-in-law. "The truth is…" he was interrupted by the ringing of the doorbell. He instantly became quiet and looked at Madoka. Neither side made any attempt to answer the door, so Ayumu gave in, sighing, and walked to the door to see who it was. He grabbed the doorknob, turning it and pushing the door open to reveal… "Rutherford…" Ayumu's eyes widened. "You're early."

"Yes." The Brit. replied quietly. "…As a gracious host, are you going to invite me in, or just stand there drooling, little Narumi?"

"Eh?" The brunette blinked. "Oh, yeah…come in." he stepped aside, making room for the pianist to enter.

"Hey, Ayumu. Don't think you can get off without telling me why you're…." Madoka paused as she stepped out of the kitchen and nearly knocked over the stoic Blade Child. "E…Eyes Rutherford?" she gasped.

Those cerulean orbs glanced at the woman with little interest. "…Yes. And you must be Kiyotaka's wife….Madoka?" he slipped off his coat and placed it on the back of the couch.

Madoka couldn't help but stare at that inch or two of exposed stomach where the clothes didn't cover the Brit. "Um, yes. I'm Madoka Narumi." She introduced herself. "Ayumu, why is Eyes Rutherford here? What aren't you telling me?" she accused the boy.

"Madoka, Eyes is…." Ayumu began.

The light-haired boy cut him off by pulling him close and capturing his lips in the softest of kisses. Ayumu gasped at the sudden gesture, but leaned into the kiss, hesitantly bringing his arms around Rutherford's neck. Careful not to let the boy get too swept into the kiss, Eyes pulled back to look at a very shocked Madoka. "We're lovers." he stated.

A/N: Poor Madoka. She just got a dose of in your face yaoi. I don't think this is what she was really expecting from Narumi's involvement, thought. Anyway, poor Ayumu is just as shocked as she is! I wonder what Rutherford is planning…hmm, leave a review, and we just might see in the next chapter!
