Fifteen
They had rode a couple transit trains down to Yamagata. Yuuta had been on long road trips before. Once before Yuuta had went on a vacation to Kyushu and Nagasaki all in one summer and then traveled upward to Okinawa. It was a fun trip as well but they would move to train to train with their bags. Yuuta informed his parents that he'd stay with his friend in Yamagata for a week or so and wouldn't be returning home until then. They agreed to it telling him to be careful but have fun. His parents realized he was growing up and no longer should be treated like a child. Meaning he should be able to roam freely without them refusing.
Mizuki's cell phone rang when he informed Yuuta that this was the last train they'd be getting on. He took out the flip phone and answered.
"Moshi Moshi?"
"Hai. I'm on boarding the last train," he replied.
There was silence a little bit of a voice could he heard from the other side of the phone.
"Yes, I brought my kouhai along with me. Don't worry he's my best tennis player on the tennis team and won't cause any problems I assure you," said Mizuki.
There was a little bit of a conversation and then finally Mizuki hung up the phone and placed it back into his pocket.
"I'm sorry about that. My mother and sisters are quite excited to see me come back. I don't see them often," he said.
Yuuta shook his head.
"It's no wonder. You never come home. I guess it's a bad thing that I'm showing up," he answered.
"That's not true! You're going to like them and they're going to love you. I mean how could anyone not Yuuta-kun? You're absolutely adorable," said Mizuki snuggling into Yuuta's shoulder. Yuuta blushed madly at the public display of affection.
"Mizuki…we're in public," he hissed.
Mizuki smirked.
"And that embarrasses you? I could care less; you're with me and I'm with you. Let them look. Let's show the world then that we love eachother," he murmured.
Yuuta turned and even darker red but decided not to even reply because it would make it worse than it already was.
"Don't worry about my parents; they'll be fine with a guest in the house. I promise," Mizuki assured. He continued to rest on Yuuta until the train stopped at the platform. Yuuta carried his belongings off the train helping Mizuki with his own. Mizuki called for a cab that rode them over to the spacier part of Yamagata. The car stopped at what it looked like to be a three story blue house. It was extravagant looking to be a Japanese house. It had a little bit of a garden in the front yard and probably had a large backyard.
"Here we are," murmured Mizuki opening the car door after he paid the fee to the driver. Yuuta got out on the other side of the cab and got his bags out of the trunk slinging them over his shoulder. They walked up the concrete path way and Mizuki turned the knob to the front door to see if it was unlocked. It was and as soon as Mizuki opened the door arms were slung around the raven haired boy making him stumble into Yuuta who held Mizuki upward so he wouldn't have fell to the ground.
"Oh Hajime dearest! How I've missed you!" she exclaimed.
"Mother," was all Mizuki could actually say because he was being squeezed so tightly by the woman.
"Ano…he's turning blue," pointed out Yuuta quietly.
Not wanting to hurt her son his mother dropped him.
"And what have we here?" she asked.
"Mother this is Yuuta Fuji. The one I've been telling you about over the phone. Yuuta this is my mother," explained Mizuki. He felt a little awkward about the situation; one he hadn't been home for a very long time and two he was introducing his boyfriend to his mother what couldn't be more nerve racking than that?
"Ah Yuuta-kun, welcome! Hopefully my son has been treating you well?" Mizuki's mother asked.
"Yes of course he has. It's nice to meet you; Mizuki talks about his family a lot with the people he trusts so it's nice to see him home to see you all," replied Yuuta bowing.
"Well isn't he just the sweetest thing? Don't bother with the honorifics here; you may call me Natsuko," said Mizuki's mother laughing.
They waked inside the house Mizuki muttering to Yuuta, "I told you she'd like you."
"Girls your brother is home!" called out Natsuko from the stairs. She led her son and Yuuta into the living.
"You both have a seat, those two should be down here soon," she said before walking into the kitchen.
Mizuki took Yuuta's hand and led him over to the cream colored sofas, both of them sitting down next to eachother. There was a clutter of noise from downstairs and two girls came downstairs. One had straight brown almost black hair had placed light honey brown streaks in it but you could tell she was related to Mizuki because she had the same color of eyes. The other sister had black hair that was at the moment braided but she had more of a dark brown color of eyes that were hid by some frameless glasses.
"Oh my goodness Hajime has brought home a man!" one of them called out. The one with glasses laughed as Mizuki blushed a little at the comment; because in a way it was true.
"Yuuta, this is my younger sister Mei," began Mizuki pointing to the one with streaks in her hair.
"And the other one is Haruko," he continued pointing at the girl with glasses.
"You're always so formal with your guest Hajime; sheesh lighten up a little, you're home no need to act like you are at a guest's house," said Haruko.
"Yeah honestly, I mean we know why you don't like it here and all but at least try to enjoy yourself," added Mei.
"I'm sorry; this is the main reason why I brought Yuuta with me. So it wouldn't be too much of an awkward situation to be in," Mizuki quietly said to his sisters.
"Damn! For a second I thought you actually brought home your boyfriend!" exclaimed Mei snapping her fingers.
Yuuta and Mizuki flinched as they inwardly were caught by Mizuki's two older sisters.
"It's nothing like that," snapped Mizuki.
Both Mei and Haruko looked at eachother and then at Yuuta grinning. They both got on both sides of Yuuta of the couch one placing her arms around him and the other closer than a girl should be to a guy she just met. Yuuta squirmed and blushed madly.
"Mn Yuuta-kun will possibly consider then to go out with one of us?" asked Haruko.
Mizuki instantly was on Yuuta's lap shielding him from his sister's seduction methods.
Mei and Haruko laughed.
"So you both are together aren't you?" asked Mei.
Natsuko smiled as all her children and her son's friend- no boyfriend actually were in the living room. She had a tray of tea in her hands for everyone and didn't want to interrupt they squabble between them but did saying, "It looks like they're caught."
Mizuki moved off of Yuuta blushing.
"Mother...I-" he began.
"All you had to do was say it and I would've given you my full approval. Especially since Yuuta is here to stay with us I'll be able to see weather or not he's suited for my liking to be with you," said Natsuko.
Yuuta paled and was a little bit nervous now that he was saying here almost scared that Natsuko would be one of those parents who watched your every move you made just to see if you were perfect for their child. Yuuta hoped not because he'd probably make a thousand mistakes if he was being watched like that. Mizuki's hand gripped Yuuta's own as if telling him not to worry that everything would be okay.
Mei and Haruko sat down on the couch and grinned. This was going to be a very fun visit this time. Despite being the older ones; it didn't hurt to act young every now and then did it?
(A/N: I have no idea how Mizuki's family would act but I do know they'd probably not try to be perfect. >> Plus Mei and Haruko are the older sisters; they're allowed to loosenup and have fun. XD And they instantly figured out that Yuuta was his boyfriend. Priceless. Being an older sister; I know these things on how to be an older sister so this was fun to write. Until next chapter!)
