-You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life
My pride is broken
You like to think you're never wrong
(You live what you've learned)
You have to act like you're someone
(You live what you've learned)
You want someone to hurt like you
(You live what you've learned)
You want to share what you have been through
(You live what you've learned)-

-Chapter 11-
Two days later…
Tsuzuki awoke to the sounds of arguing. He looked over and say that Hisoka was already awake and staring at the door. Hisoka looked thoughtful and worried at the same time, as if he wasn't really there. Tsuzuki reached out and touched the Hisoka's shoulder. It seemed to wake hi up out of whatever trance he was in, as he looked at Tsuzuki.
"I'll be right here." Tsuzuki said.
Hisoka turned away again and focused on the door.
"Why do I have to go down there?" a woman's voice said.
"Because I have a meeting to attend and the boy has been acting up. You must go and deal with him." Nagare said.
"But why must I go and see the demon?" the woman asked.
"Because it seems as if there may be someone down there with him. The brat won't tell me anything but you are a different story." was the reply.
"Fine. I'll go and get out of him what I can. We can't afford to have anyone else know about him. It could be disastrous to our name!"
"Good then. I'll leave you to your work Rui."
"Good bye Nagare."
And then everything was silent.
"Hisoka?" Tsuzuki asked.
"She's coming down soon. You better hide." was the impassive reply.
"Who?"
"My mother."
CREEK
"Hide!"
"Alright, but I'll be right here. You're not alone in this." Tsuzuki said, but Hisoka was already focusing on the woman descending the stairs.
She was wearing a blue yucata, that seemed to bellow at her feet. Her movements were graceful, making it seem as if she was floating down the stairs. Her deep blue eyes complimented her sculpted face, which was surrounded by long strands of gold. But her expression was hard as she saw Hisoka, and her small nose wrinkled up as if he smelled of something horrid.
"Boy?" she said, in a voice filled with hate, as she reached the cellar floor.
"Yes mother." Hisoka said, a slight anxiety leaking through.
"I am not your mother you bastard! I never gave birth to demon like you! I don't even see why your still here."
There was a pause before she continued. "Well, who else is down here?"
"No one." Hisoka replied.
"Liar! We all know that someone has been down here! Don't you dare lie to me!"
"I'm not. No one else is down here."
Rui crossed the room in one swift motion and slapped Hisoka across the face. Hisoka fell back onto the floor as she wiped her hand on her yucata, as if trying to remove Hisoka from her hand.
"I said don't lie to me, although I have no idea who would want to be with you in the first place. You are nothing more than a demon. You have no business tainting anyone else with your presence, let alone our family. I still don't see why Nagare won't just kill you."
Tsuzuki, who was invisible in the corner of the room, winced. Hisoka's own mother wanted him dead. That was terrible, no child should have to feel that much hate from anyone let alone their parents.
"I don't know why either." was the sad reply.
SLAP
"I never said you could talk! For all I know you could be trying to cast a spell on me. I'll ask you one last time, who is down here?"
"No one. No one would ever want to be with me." Hisoka said sadly.
It took all of Tsuzuki's self control not to run over to Hisoka and hug him, reminding him that he was here.
"That's right. You'd probably curse them, just like you have cursed our family."
"Yes."
With that said Rui turned and ascended the stairs. Hisoka simply watched her leave, not letting his tears show until the door closed and he couldn't feel her presence anymore. It was then the first tears began to fall.
Tsuzuki rushed over and embraced the boy, cradling him against his chest. Hisoka turned and buried his face in Tsuzuki's chest. He wasn't sure why his mother's words affected him in such a way, but they did.. Maybe it was because of the bond between a mother and son, or something like that. Hisoka could never be sure, but her words hurt more than his father's.
They didn't know how long they stayed like hat, neither wanting to break the silence that fell between them. It was Hisoka who finally broke the silence.
"What she said wasn't true, right?" he asked in a small voice.
"Of course not Hisoka."
"Then why does she say those things? Does she really hate me that much?"
"I don't know Hisoka. But I'll say this I don't know why she feels that way."
"You should leave." Hisoka said after a moment.
"Why's that?" Tsuzuki asked stunned.
"Because I'll curse you. An angel like you shouldn't be around smoothing like me."
Tsuzuki tightened his hold on Hisoka.
"I thought I told you not to listen to what your parents say. Hisoka I'm not going to leave you. And when the time comes that I must leave, I promise I'll come back." Tsuzuki said.
Hisoka didn't respond. He knew Tsuzuki was lying. Inside the man was crying, for something that Hisoka didn't know about. Hisoka decided to take a chance and ask his angel the one question that has been plaguing his mind.
"Tsuzuki…"
"What is it Hisoka?" Tsuzuki replied, stroking Hisoka's soft hair.
"What's my future?"
-End chapter 11-
Sorry to end it there like that. I feel as if this chapter is too short... oh well... I'd like to thank thelastunicorn for suggesting that I bring in Hisoka's mom, and I hope I did it well. I really don't know that much about her, so don't kill me if I was a little off. Okay? Thanks for reading and please review!
