A/N:
You guys have no idea how happy I am whenever I receive reviews telling me that my stories made your day, your week, and made you smile... *gets teary eyed* I LOVE YOU ALL!
A writer is nothing without his loyal and kind readers :) once again I thank you.
Let's go forth to the fic!
After having their lunch, Yukio went up. And Yurin helped in cleaning up with Rin. After the two have finished washing the dishes, the little girl watched as she waited for Rin to finish wiping the table. The older brother saw Yukio pass by the entrance and called out to him.
"Oi Yukio! where are you going?" The aforementioned young man turned and stood in front of the dining area
"I'm going to the exorcist shop to pick up the stuff I ordered." He replied blantly
"Hn, fine, be sure to be back soon." Rin scowled as he finished tidying up.
Yukio smiled and tilted his head to the side, "Why? It's not like i'm cheating on you." He winked at Yurin and she giggled
Rin glared at him as he pouted trying to suppress the blush that was dawning on his cheeks. It irritates him that his brother could milk so much fun out of their little parenting escapade, via teasing him so much.
The younger let out an amused chuckle, he was about to leave when he remembered,
"Yurin-chan, would you like to come with me?" He smiled kindly at her and offering a hand out at her. Yurin's eyes sparkled with delight, she nodded her head and ran up to Yukio and took his hand holding it tightly.
He glanced back at Rin, who was now smiling fondly at him, the smaller was glad that Yukio remembered his promise to spend time with Yurin. The supposed daddy smiled at him, then mouthed the words,
'Tonight. Reward.'
Rin's smile faded as he blushed again, nodding a single time, and shoo'd them with his hand telling them to leave now. Before his brother could ever say or do anything that will make him feel embarrassed.
Yukio and Yurin are now walking at the long bridge to the Exorcist's Shop. They haven't spoken much, Yukio doesn't exactly know what to say but Yurin doesn't seem to mind the silence, he just held her hand as they walked. Yukio remembered when he was a kid. Shiro would take him to short strolls at the park and would hold his hand just like what he's doing to Yurin. He can't help but feel nostalgic; whenever he walked with Shiro and held his hand, he feels so warm,safe and protected, like no harm would ever come as long as Shiro's with him.
He guessed that, that was the effect of the presence of the father to their children, for them to feel safe and protected. Yukio wondered, does Yurin feel the same way as she's walking with him?
"Ne ne, Daddy?" the soft voice of Yurin snapped him out of his thoughts.
"Hm?" He glanced at her as he smiled
She returned the smile and tilted her head a bit getting a better view of her daddy, "How was work?"
Yukio's eyes widened in a small measure, "Hm... it was fine."
"Ah... I heard mommy said that your last one was tough, and then you got to finish it in only two hours." She said in a voice full of awe
Yukio chuckled, "Yeah, we had to catch this huge demon and rescue the lady it captured. But the demon wasn't so hard to defeat"
"waaa... sugoi~" He smiled at her again, "hmm... what about your meeting earlier? Daddy looked tired after it."
Yukio didn't understand why, but even though Yurin would ask so many questions, he just didn't get annoyed whatsoever.
"They were stressing about this demon that managed to enter the campus despite the barriers, we were ordered to be on high alert. Thing is, since I'm both Dragoon and Doctor, I got appointed on both Pursuit and Medical Division." He explained calmly.
"It's because daddy is so awesome they just need you so much!" She raised her arms emphasizing the awesome.
Yukio patted her head fondly.
They arrived at the shop after a short while, he told Yurin to wait outside as he received his parcel. He chatted for a while with Shiemi then said their good byes.
Once again the father and daughter walked along the bridge. When something caught Yurin's eye. She tugged Yukio's sleeve stopping in his tracks.
"Hey Daddy what's that?" She pointed at the amusement park that can be seen clearly.
"Oh, that's an amusement park."
Her eyes widened with delight then started jumping up and down. "Can we go there? Can we go there? Can we? Can we?"
Yukio stared at her thinking...
"Rin, stop whatever you're doing and will be going to the Amusement Park. With Yurin." Yukio said to Rin who was busy preparing for dinner even when it was only 3 pm.
Yurin was running and jumping all around the house due to extreme excitement.
"Eh? Will be going to Mephyland? But I don't have money" Honestly, Rin was just too lazy to go, and he was busy COOKING, his favorite hobby...aside from sleeping, and spacing out.
"You never did Rin, I always pay for everything remember. Come on, it's just for a short while." He picked up the hyper Yurin by her side and let her face Rin, "We'll be spending time with Yurin-chan~" He swayed her a little side to side
Rin sighed, "Okay fine." He begrudgingly walked out of the kitchen he didn't even bother to change clothes leaving him only wearing a long sleeved hoody and shorts, Yukio on the other hand removed his exorcist coat, and then the three headed out.
At MephyLand, that's what the amusement park is called right? Anyways, Yurin was running around going crazy Rin was following her close behind careful not to lose her, Yukio was just casually walking and keeping an eye out for them, just in case the two managed to destroy a ride or something.
They didn't actually rode on any ride, Yurin just wanted to look at all the neat stuff. And then something caught her eye. A medium sized pink Seal plushie* that was hanging by a booth of some sort, she gazed at it with pure want and need, she must have it.
She tugged on Yukio's sleeve, "I want that!" she pointed at the stuffed animal.
"Sorry little girly that ain't for sale." a guy said he seems to be the one in charge of the game booth, "You see, you have to hit one of those."
He pointed at the four rows of wires that hung small boards, some bore a target dart mark while some didn't, "If you manage to hit one of those targets with marks using those toy guns, you get your plushie. One marked target equals one prize"
"Okay~!" The game seems easy enough
Yukio paid the guy and he started the game, to the trio's surprised, as soon as the game started the targets began to move quickly zipping from left to right alternately for each row. Not as easy as they thought.
Yurin kept shooting but no luck, the game ended.
"Eh? over already? Again!" she said full of determination.
Yukio sighed, and handed money again.
Five rounds have already passed and Yurin gave up crying into mommy Rin's arms. He comforted her.
"Don't worry, Yukio will just buy you one okay?" He looked up at his brother ho wore a blank expression as he nodded.
"But..but.. I want that one..." she hiccuped while sobbing.
They were about to leave when Yukio caught a glimpse of the guy smirking at Yurin then turned his attention to the cash he earned. The young exorcist could tolerate a crying Yurin, he could tolerate loosing his money over a dumb game. But an ugly punk smirking at a CRYING Yurin and counting HIS money...that he can't tolerate, Ever.
'So that's how you want to play, huh?' Yukio grabbed Rin's hood stopping them from leaving
"Yukio...?" Rin saw his brother walking towards the guy again
"Mind if I have a go?" He smiled at the guy and paid.
"Sure." The punk smirked at him and started the game
Yukio walked a few feet away from the targets.
"Uhm... aren't you gonna need a gun?" He raised a brow at his customer seeing he distanced himself far enough unable to reach the toy guns.
"I have my own." Yukio stated as he pulled out a gun from it's holster behind him hidden under his shirt. "One marked target equals one prize, hm?" He aimed his gun lazily with his other hand in his pocket
Rin can't help but think how cool Yukio is being right now. He got envious again...
The guy's eyes widened then returned his smug expression, "Give it your best shot dude"
"..No need.." he pulled the trigger.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
The game stopped. The guy was stunned, Yukio hit three targets dead center. The younger Okumura hid his gun under his shirt again and back to it's holster.
"If I gave it my best shot. I might end up taking all of your toys." He said walking over to him with that glint in his eye "Is your face also a target? I'm just curious..."
The guy trembled then took three stuffed animals and shoved it in Yukio's arms then ran away. Yukio scoffed, then turned. He handed Yurin the pink Seal plushie and smiled at the little girl as he patted her head. He then gave the remaining two stuffed animals to Rin, which was a panda and a white bunny, he also patted Rin's head earning him a blushing and pouting Rin.
"We should go home now, it's getting dark." Yukio announced as he walked off.
Bedtime, Yurin was sleeping peacefully with the stuffed animal in her arms. Hugging it tightly. Yukio climbed onto their bed and crawled under the covers, he shifted so he was facing Rin, who was lying on his back.
"Rin~ Where's my reward?" He whispered
"eh! I already cooked your favorite for dinner, isn't that enough?" Rin trailed his blue eyes at Yukio.
"aww... but I'm an awesome daddy today. I spent time with her and I gave her that stuffed animal she wanted badly. Shouldn't I deserve a reward for each?"
Rin shifted to his side to face Yukio covering half of his face with the Panda plushie with his brows furrowed. "Goodnight." Rin mumbled and closed his eyes
Yukio sighed and lied on his back deciding he'll just sleep. He opened his eyes when he felt a weight on his body and found Rin on top of him.
Rin cupped Yukio's cheeks then pecked his lips giving him a quick kiss, "That's for spending time with Yurin."
He kissed him again, only this time firmly, it lasted for three seconds then he parted, "That's for the plushie." Rin rolled back to his side of the bed and turning his back to Yukio hiding his red face from him.
"Is that reward enough Yukio?" he asked softly
"It was sweet, but it happened so quickly I didn't get the chance to feel it..." He whispered to Rin's ear teasingly
"Hmph! 'Feel' my ass..."
"Alright."
"Eh! Not literally, perv Yukio...!"
END CHAPTER
so that was the longest chapter so far.
I gave Yukio the spotlight this time ^^ he's a bad ass dad! xD
the reward part didn't exactly go as I original planned, I planned it to just be the dinner... but then I thought I've spent most of the previous chapters with food so... yeah I put a little romance swing in to it.
And many reviews are eager to see that reward, and I know what's running in yer heads~ xD I didn't go hardcore with it though, cos this fic is only K+
