After much persuasion via reviews, I think I'm gonna have Callia do a bit of freaking out on Kanone. It'll be fun to write, and I need a little fun! Enjoy!
Polaris: Oh! Why did you go for Callia? You know that's only gonna piss her off, and she's gonna take it out even more on Kanone! Maybe that just means you're...better than everyone... Yeah, that's it...Heh, never realized you were bipolar. You and Kanone are starting to have a lot in common (and that's not always a good thing. Actually, that's not usually a good thing). Thanks for reviewing!
CeTe: Yeah, Callia's pretty cool. She's one of my better liked OC's. She's just leading Eyes on, letting him think everything will be okay. That's when she snaps. I know it seems like she's lying to him about keeping her cool, but I don't think she knows that she's gonna snap yet, but she will. Oh, she will. That's a damn funny scene, so go ahead and laugh. Thanks for reviewing!
alpha2nd: That's exactly what it is. Yeah, Jeremy is reminding me a little of Ayumu when he let it slip that Kanone was seeing Eyes at school (oh...school, I kind of forgot about that...whoops!). Mmmmm, Kanone in the shower...Now look what you've done, I'm getting very bad thoughts! No killing Kanone in the shower, though, and (unfortunately) I don't think we'll be seeing Kanone in the shower any time soon (well, not in this fic, anyway). Lol, alright, I won't shove you off anymore cliffs...how about a small hill? Thanks for reviewing!

Eyes was sitting in the living room eating a bowl of cereal when Kanone walked in. The latter sat on the couch next to Eyes, who was on the floor (remember Kanone's rule about food on the furniture), "So, how is everyone?" he asked, trying to think of something to talk about.
Eyes looked up at Kanone, "They're fine." he replied. He knew that he should give Kanone a heads up about his mother, but also knew that Kanone would be extremely upset that she had found out. Though, it was technically Kanone's fault since she overheard him and Jeremy talking. Finishing his cereal, Eyes joined his boyfriend on the couch, "I need to tell you something." he said, looking away.
"You're not pregnant, are you?" Kanone asked, smirking at the glare Eyes gave the question.
"Besides the fact that that's physically impossible, no, I'm not." Eyes said.
Kanone laughed, and then saw the serious look he was being given, and wiped the smirk off his face, "Alright, I'm sorry. What's wrong?"
Eyes sighed, "My mother found out about what happened." he confessed.
Kanone froze, and stared at Eyes, "Please tell me you're joking." he said. When Eyes shook his head, Kanone's eyes widened, "How?" he asked.
"She asked me about it." Eyes explained, "She said that she overheard you and Jeremy talking. By the way, how did Jeremy find out?"
Kanone was the one to hesitate now, "Apparently he overheard you and I talking." he then chuckled at the situation, "We really need to keep these kinds of things more private."
Eyes nodded in agreement, "She said that she would trust that we would take care of this on our own, but I think that she'll feel differently once she sees you. I could tell that she was very upset, and I don't think she's just gonig to forget about this."
Kanone burried his face in his hands, "Of course she's not. I can't even defend myself because I'm gonig to deserve everything that she does to me." Kanone shut his eyes, not looking foward to seeing Callia again.
Eyes shook his head, "How can you say that? You've paid for what you did. I know she's my mother, but that doesn't mean she can give you hell for it."
Kanone smiled a little, "Actually, Eyes, that's exactly what it means. She's only trying to be a good mother, and I would do the exact same thing if anyone ever did what I did. The truth is, I haven't paid near as much as I should for what I did." Kanone looked down as he said this, "I don't deserve for you to forgive me."
Eyes scooted closer to Kanone, and laid his head on the older one's shoulder, "That's for me to decide, not you." he informed Kanone, "Besides, you're beating yourself up enough for the both of us."
Kanone smiled, and wrapped his arm around Eyes' shoulders, "Thank you." he whispered, kissing the top of the younger one's head.
Who better to break up this beautiful moment than the younger one's mother, who was walking through the front door at this moment. She glanced into the living room when she heard her son, and glared at the sight before her. Though, when Eyes turned to her, she wiped the glare off of her face, and replaced it with a bright smile, "Hello, boys." she said, pleasantly, as she joined them on the couch, "What are you two up to?"
Eyes wanted to play along with his mother's fake, cheery attitude, but Kanone apparently didn't, "Callia, can I speak to you in private?" he asked, standing up.
Callia nodded, she had wanted to "talk" to Kanone, too. Standing up, she followed Kanone out back where they could have some (hopefully) real privacy. Glancing around to make sure no one was listening in on them, Kanone turned to face Callia. As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, though, the older woman slapped him, "Who the hell do you think you are?" she demanded, "What makes you think you can rape my son, and act like everything is okay and that you've done nothing wrong?"
Kanone opeend his mouth to answer again, but apparently Callia didn't want him talking. She slapped him again, but this time Kanone grabbed her wrist before she could pull it away, "I won't argue that you have no right to slap me, but I won't stand for accusations and disrespect." he snapped, glaring at her, "I dont know exactly what you've heard, but common courtesy states that you need to give me a chance to explain myself before you go off on me."
Callia yanked her hand away, "I think it also states that you don't get drunk and rape your boyfriend, but you did that." she countered, "And don't ever touch me again."
Kanone just stared at the, until now, completely reasonable woman, "Listen, I know you may be upset, but you're the one who's not allowed to touch me." he informed her, "Officially, I can do whatever I want to you, Eyes, or anyone else here. I don't because I'm a decent person, but I am still a person. I make msitakes, and I expect to pay for them."
Callia just laughed, "How the hell can you call yourself a decent person? If you ever think of hurting my son again, I will not hesitate to do whatever I see fit to make sure that doesn't happen." she threatened, "While it is true that you own me, I will not stand for you to hurt my son. Do what you like to me, but leave him alone."
Kanone glared at this, "I'll say this one more time, I do not tolerate disrespect, and you are really pushing my limits. Not a lot of things can get me upset, but accusing me of things like that are unacceptable. I would never dream of laying a hand on Eyes if he told me not to, but you're forgetting that, other than being your son, he's my boyfriend as well. I have been more than generous to you, and you don't have the right..."
"I don't have the right?" Callia interrupted him, which was the absolute wrong thing to do, "The only thing you should be doing right now is begging Eyes for him to forgive you. Even if he says he already has, you shouldn't just act like everything is alright."
Kanone found it extremely difficult to restrain himself from hitting Callia at this point, but knew that Eyes probably wouldn't forgive him if he did that. Besides, he wanted to try and work things out with Callia, not get in a fight with her. She was just so damn hard to reason with, "I have been begging him to forgive me every moment since I realized what I had done. Eyes has told me countless times that he's forgiven me, but I still feel absolutely horrible for what I did to him. Believe me, the only reason I'm acting like nothing happened is for him."
Callia was all ready with another response before she heard that last sentence, "What did you say?" she asked, suspiciously.
"Eyes wants to forget what happened, and I don't blame him. Seeing what he came from, I would want to put it behind me as well. I'm ready and willing to do anything he asks of me, and that is what he asked for. He doesn't want to be reminded of it, and me apologizing endlessly does that." he looked at Callia expectantly, though he was half prepared to be hit again.
"Oh." Was the only thing she managed to get out, "So...he told you to act like this?"
Kanone nodded, "If he asked me, I would spend the rest of my life asking for his forgiveness. I only want to make him happy, and if this is what will do it, then who am I to question his desicion?"
Callia looked down at the ground, feeling damn foolish, "I...didn't know that." she whispered, looking back up at Kanone, "I'm sorry...that I hit you."
Kanone sighed, shaking his head, "I can't say that I didn't deserve it. Now I know where Eyes gets his right hook from, though." he commented, rubbing his cheek where he had been slapped.
Callia's head snapped up at this, "He hit you, too?"
"Yeah, I'm just glad you both only slapped me." Callia let out a snort, then covered her mouth to keep from laughing anymore. Kanone raised an eyebrow, "And what is so funny, might I ask?"
Callia bit her bottom lip, then answered the question, "You got bitch-slapped." she said, and errupted into laughter. Soon, though, she was running from a revenge-seeking Kanone. She made it inside before the boy, and hid behind Eyes, "Your boyfriend's on the war path!" she laughed, both confusing and startling the poor boy.
"What are you..." he began to ask, but paused as Kanone burst in through the door.
"Eyes...move." Kanone ordered, eyeing Callia up and down, "Now, or I'll take you out with her."
Callia just laughed more, and pushed Eyes into Kanone, "Stall him for me, would you, honey?" she called as she ran out the back door.
Kanone went to chase after her, but Eyes stopped him, "Oh, sure, take her side." Kanone remarked as he glared after the retreating form.
Eyes waited until he had Kanone's attention, "What happened?" he asked, mildly concerned at his mother's childish behavior.
"Well, she slapped me around a bit, then laughed at me because you slapped me, and then ran." he explained, "Now, if you don't mind, I would like to go finish our... conversation."
"Wait a minute." Eyes said, grabbing once more onto Kanone's arm, "So, she's okay with all of this?"
Kanone shrugged, "I guess...can I go now?" Eyes released his arm, and recieved a quick kiss on the head, "Love you!" Kanone called as he ran out the same door that Callia had a few moments before. Eyes just shook his head, and seriously started to wonder about his boyfriend's mental state.

Hehehehehehe, Callia slapped Kanone. What's better, she got away with it! Now, though, these two are going to be at war for a while (probably until Eyes gets pissed off enough). Hmm, it seems in all the confusion, poor Eyes' doctor's appointment was forgotten. Let's hope it wasn't important...Review!
