disclaimer: Do Not Owe Loveless!

notes: none for now. Here it is...

"So Ritsuka, where will you be going on your date with Soubi?" Yayoi asked as he was staring at Ritsuka in the apartment of Soubi as Yayoi sat on the bed while Ritsuka was looking at himself in the mirror. "I'm guessing the park and the movies," Ritsuka replied as Yayoi looked around, "where is Soubi anyway?" He asked.

"His with Yori picking up something from where they went yesterday I guess. Say Yayoi, shouldn't you be with Yuiko and the baby?" Ritsuka asked looking at him, "Yuiko needs rest and the nurses are taking care of the baby for now. Visiting hours are over anyway and I'll wait until tomorrow morning," Yayoi explained as Ritsuka nodded.

"How do I look?" Ritsuka asked as Yayoi smiled at him, "you look great Ritsuka. You bought a flower bracelet?" He asked blinking as he stared at Ritsuka's right wrist. Ritsuka blushed, "I never intended to wear it when I first bought it in high school, remember Yayoi?" He asked as Yayoi looked at him for a moment.

"Oh yea! You were thinking of going to the prom with Yuiko weren't you?" He asked as Ritsuka nodded, "but she asked you and Soubi couldn't come so I didn't go with a date," he said as Yayoi nodded. Ritsuka stretched as he sat down next to Yayoi, "so, how does it feel to be a father?" He asked as Yayoi shrugged.

"I haven't done anything yet with my child," he said slowly as Ritsuka looked at him, "you know, me and Soubi is always here if you need help with your kid. Like baby-sitting for once," he said as Yayoi smiled at him. "You've always been a good friend Ritsuka," Yayoi said as Ritsuka smiled, "you too Yayoi," he said as the two hugged each other.

Just then the two heard the door opening as they looked and saw Soubi and Yori walking inside the apartment, "Ritsuka! You look perfect!" Yori exclaimed as Ritsuka blushed. "Is that a flower bracelet?" Soubi asked staring at his wrist at the blue rose, "yea. I bought it awhile ago and I decided to wear it for this date," he said as Soubi smiled.

"Hopefully it's a fake rose," Yori murmured as Ritsuka looked at her annoyed, "it is fake. Whaddya think?" He asked as he let Yori glanced at it and she laughed nervously. "Too bad Yuiko isn't here to see this; it's like the prom all over again, huh Ritsuka?" Yayoi asked as Ritsuka nodded smiling.

"I got a camera with me! Why don't you two pose?" Yori asked as she looked at Ritsuka as he was staring at Soubi up and down, Soubi was wearing the same thing as Ritsuka except in different color which is all white as Ritsuka was wearing his all in black. "Ritsuka!" Yayoi exclaimed as he snapped his fingers in front of him, Ritsuka blinked before he looked at Yayoi.

"Go and pose with Soubi so we could go and take a picture for Yuiko," Yayoi said as Ritsuka looked at Soubi who smiled. The two pose standing together as Soubi put his arm behind Ritsuka as the two smiled at the camera, Yori took it. "I'll come by later to show you the picture after I shown it to Yuiko," she said excitedly, "aw man. I've got to get going," Yayoi said suddenly.

"We'll meet again tomorrow?" Ritsuka asked as Yayoi nodded, "yea. Hopefully I'm not busy with the baby's room by then," he murmured as Ritsuka shook his head and Yayoi left. "Yori, do you have a ride back home?" Ritsuka asked, "yea. I called my boyfriend when we were back at the shop and I told him to meet me by the coffee shop," Yori explained.

Ritsuka nodded as Yori smiled at him realizing that the two was anxious to get started, "I should get going. I'll see yea guys tomorrow!" Yori said happily as she left the two lovers alone. Soubi sighed in relieved as he went up behind Ritsuka and hugged him, "finally. You and I are now alone," he said as he licked Ritsuka's cheek as Ritsuka blushed.

"Um, where are we going on our date?" He asked as Soubi smiled, "well, we can't really go to the park and beach looking like this, now do we? We can go to the movies or we can go and see a broadway play," Soubi said as Ritsuka looked at him. "Broadway play?" He asked as Soubi nodded, "I got tickets for the ten o'clock showing. It will only last for two hours," he explained.

"But what about work tomorrow?" Ritsuka asked as Soubi smiled, "I cancelled for the day. Ritsuka, the play we are going to is called: Phantom Of The Opera. Certainly you probably heard about it from school, right?" He asked as Ritsuka blinked. "Yea, I heard it could be good," Ritsuka said smiling as Soubi and him went out to the car.

"I hope you won't be disappointed Ritsuka," Soubi said as Ritsuka looked at him, "why would I be? I'll be going out with my boyfriend and having a good time, right?" He asked smiling as Soubi nodded as they drove to the theatre.

(At The Hospital)

"Yuiko, I thought I supposed not to be here right now," Yayoi began as he was looking at Yuiko on the bed who was looking at him worriedly. "This is important Yayoi," Yuiko said as Yayoi blinked, "why? Is something wrong with our child?" He asked worriedly as a nurse suddenly came inside.

"What's going on nurse?" Yayoi asked as the nurse sighed, "we almost lost the baby for some reason but your child is breathing back to normal right now," the nurse explained as Yayoi gasped. "It was just for a few minutes but thank goodness she came back to life," the nurse said as Yayoi sighed, "are you searching for the answer why she almost died?" Yuiko asked quietly.

The nurse nodded, "we'll tell you and then you may leave the hospital as soon as we are done," she said as Yuiko nodded and the nurse left. "Our baby..." Yuiko said worriedly as Yayoi hugged her comfortably, "everything we'll be all right Yuiko," Yayoi said in a soothing voice as Yuiko tried not to cry.

(Back at Soubi and Ritsuka)

Two hours had passed by a blur as Ritsuka rubbed his eyes sleepily, "are you tired my love?" Soubi asked as the two were walking out of the theatre. "What time is it anyway?" Ritsuka asked yawning as Soubi looked at his watch, "nearly one o'clock. Do you still want dinner?" He asked as Ritsuka gave him a look.

"Of course I want dinner. But what's a restaurant opened at this time?" He asked confused, "Mimi's Cafe is open for another hour or so," Soubi replied as Ritsuka nodded and Soubi drove to that place. "Soubi, what do you think of adopting a child?" Ritsuka asked quietly as Soubi looked at him in the corner of his eye, "depends on what age of child you want," he replied.

"The age of ten," Ritsuka replied quickly as Soubi smiled, "you've been thinking, haven't you?" He asked as Ritsuka shrugged. Soubi smiled, "my love. The date only has begun and you'll find out sooner then you think," he said as Ritsuka looked at him and Soubi smiled happily as the two went to the restaurant.
