I do not own Piedmon, Myotismon, Naruto, Jiraiya, Sasuke, Hinata, or Teen Titans. I do own Brian and other so no stealing. Oh, by the way, does anyone know the name of the school Ken attends? In addition, Erik is actually based off an online friend of mine, family and all.
When he opened the door, a petite but buxom raven-haired girl stood in the doorway. Her ivory skin framed her silvery-blue eyes. Her face bore a smile on, though her eyes were puffy and darkly circled beneath. Her hair, like dark water, flowed to her mid-back. She wore a grey men's dress shirt with a dark red tie, a dark green, almost black schoolgirl skirt, and black loafers over black socks. She was the same age as Brian.
"Hey, Katie," Brian exclaimed happily, hugging her. "Hi, you," She said, hugging him back. "Has dinner started yet?" She asked, stepping in. "We just sat down." He said, closing then locking the door behind her. "Good, I'm not late, what's for dinner anyways?" She asked, removing her shoes. "Spaghetti an' meatballs," He said. "Ooo, yummy," She said cheerfully. "Did you already do your injection and stuff?" He asked, gesturing to her black messenger bag. "No, I kinda forgot to. Can I do it on the couch real quick?" She asked. "Sure," He said, a hint of worry in his voice. He had seen her check her blood, and give herself insulin injections many times, but it still worried him. She sat down on the couch and opened her bag. She extracted a Palm Pilot-looking device and a tiny syringe covered in plastic. "What's the hold up?" Piedmon asked from the kitchen. "Katie's doing her injection and stuff." Brian said. "Oh, ok," Piedmon, said. Brian turned to face Katie.
She tapped the end of the small white strip against her thumb, a small bead of dark red blood appearing on her white finger. She dabbed her blood on the strip and inserted it into the device. The device beeped and a number appeared on the face. "Just as I thought, I did need to do it." She muttered. Brian sighed nervously. She removed the syringe's cover and tapped it to remove air bubbles, and un-tucked her shirt on the left side to reveal the side of her white torso. She held the tiny needle to her side, and stuck it into her skin. She pushed the plunger down, the fluid emptying out of the syringe. She took the needle out of her side, and put it in an orange plastic bag in her bag.
Brian sighed in relief as Katie put her things away. Katie tucked her shirt back into her skirt and turned to look at Brian, whose face had turned an even paler shade. "Bri," She said tenderly, getting up and standing in front of him. "You've seen me do this dozens of times; don't worry about me." She said, placing her hands on his face. He said nothing as he stared into her eyes. They always held emotions she never showed. "You should worry if I don't do my injections and don't check myself." She said, stroking his cheek.
Erik craned his neck to see what was going on. He knew he should not, it only ended up upsetting him. "Katie, I know you do this stuff on a daily basis, and are used to it…but I just can't stand to see you do it, it's like I feel the same pain." He said, placing his hand on his chest. "Brian, you're so sweet." She said, happily and sadly at the same time. Brian put his arms around her, bringing her closer. She sighed almost happily. "Katie, I love you, and I will protect you as long as I live." Brian said. "I love you too." Katie sighed. Brian pulled her even closer, and their lips locked together in a loving kiss.
Everyone at table watched the two subteens' embrace. Erik looked sad as he watched. "Can I eat yet?" Nikki asked, breaking the silence. "No, not until Brian and Katie sit down." Myotismon said. "Then in that case, we'll be here all night." Nikki grumbled. Myotismon glared at her. She caught his glare, and shrunk down. Their lips parted, but Brian still held Katie close. "C'mon, let's go eat, your dad worked hard on diner." She said, taking his hand in hers. "Alright," He said, closing his hand. They walked to the table hand-in-hand. Their hands opened as they separated. Brian sat down at his original seat and Katie sat on the other side of Piedmon. The food already lay on Brian and Katie's plate.
"Well everyone, monga!" Piedmon said happily, clapping his hands together. As if everyone was trained to eat at the sound of his hands clapping together, they all began to eat. Erik watched Brian eat, smiling. He noticed Katie watching Brian eat as well, and their eyes met. They glared at each other as if they were old rivals. Electricity practically short out of their eyes as their stares intensified.
Piedmon looked at Erik and Katie who were locked in each other's furious glare. He sighed. It was not that he did not like that fact his son had not one but two people who wanted to be with him, it was just he could not stomach the tension their "battle" brought. He worried deeply about both, Katie with her health condition and emotional state, and Erik with his horrible family life. He wished he could adopt the dear boy and take him away from his homophobic father, his downright crazy and cruel mother, and his older sister, who always got all the attention. He had heard Erik say that not one of the family photos and home movies contained him, only his sister, and that his parents told him constantly he was adopted, which he was not.
He tapped Myotismon on the hand, and gestured to Katie and Erik when he looked up. Myotismon shot him a concerned look, as if to say, "What do we do?" Piedmon shrugged. "Erik, how about you stay for the weekend?" He cheerfully asked him. Erik looked up. "Um, sure but Brian didn't ask me or anything." He said. "He was, he just forgot to." Piedmon said. Brian looked at Piedmon, confused. He shot him a look saying silently, "Go with it." "Uh, yeah, I knew I'd probably forget though, so I asked dad this morning to ask you if I did." He said. Erik smiled. "Sure, I'd do anything to stay with my family." He said. Erik had the same mindset as Piedmon. He was too afraid to ask, since he knew his "father" would fight to the death to keep-to-keep him miserable. "So it's settled then." Piedmon said cheerfully.
"Daddy, can I have some more please?" Rose asked, lifting her bowl up. "Sure thing, sweetie," He said, taking her bowl from her. Brian ate more slowly, not because he was getting full, but because he was once again deep in thought. Nikki always said if he could apply that to when he did his homework, he would get it done quicker. "Hello, Brian, are you in there?" Nikki said, waving her hand in front of his face. "Huh, what," He said, confused. "Just as I thought, you did go into your little world again, fantasizing about Hinata topless?" She smirked, mocking him. His whole face turned a reddish-pink blush. "No," He stammered, embarrassed. "Ha, you so were too, with Katie at the table, shame on you!" Nikki scolded. "Shut up, you don't know what I'm thinking!" Brian yelled angrily. "Oh, please, your face says it all, Jiraiya." She taunted. Kiba stopped eating, stunned. "You shut up!" Brian yelled, the pinkish hue on his face becoming a deeper red. "Oo, good comeback there, Naruto," She said. "Shut up, Sasuke!" He yelled. "Both of you stop!" Myotismon said sternly, banging his hand the table. They both stopped, shrinking down in their chairs. "Not another word out of you two, understand?" He said. They nodded. "That's better." He said.
Kiba and Alex shivered. Kiba silently thanked himself he had said hi to Myotismon when he came home. Piedmon sighed. He did not dislike Myotismon being the disciplinarian, but Myotismon's temper sometimes flared out of control. He patted Myotismon on the hand. Myotismon looked at him, and got a confused look on his face when Piedmon looked away. He blinked. He had been with Piedmon for 28 years, yet he still not know all the thoughts in Piedmon's head.
"Daddy, I'm done with dinner, may I be excused?" Rose asked. "Sure, dear." Piedmon said. Rose gathered her plates and walked to the sink, placing her dishes as she stood on tiptoes. She then prance happily to living room and flopped on the couch. "You have a half hour Rosy!" Piedmon called to her. "Ok," She called. Brian finished his food, placing his fork on the middle of the plate. "I'm done; may I take my plates to the sink?" Katie asked. "Of course, dear," Piedmon said. She smiled at him and got up, slowly walking to the kitchen. She set her dishes down in the sink quietly and turned the faucet on, running water on her dishes. As she turned the water off, a muffled sound came from her pocket. She dug in her pocket and extracted out a tiny silver cell phone. The sound was her ring tone; it was Metallica's "Master of Puppets." She did not even look at the face, and put it to her ear as she pushed a button. Brian knew immediately when he heard the ring tone it was Katie's parents. Katie had said it was her parents' song since when they met, or bumped into each other, that Katie's mom, Kat, was listening to the song at the time.
"Alright daddy, love you." She said, then hanging up the phone and putting it back in her pocket. "Gotta go?" Brian asked. "Yep," She said, smiling. Brian got up and put his dishes in the sink. He turned to face Katie, putting his hand in hers. "I'll walk you out, ok." He said, smiling. "'Kay," She said happily and sadly. He put his arm on her shoulder and pulled her closer. They walked to the living room slowly as if it was their moment together. Katie scooped her bag off the arm of the couch and walked to the entryway where Brian stood. She knelt down and put on her shoes. She stood up to face Brian. She laid her wrists on his shoulders, her petite hands dangling. They stared into each other's eyes. Brian put his arms around her waist, and their lips met again. Nikki sighed exhaustedly as she watched. Their lips separated, as did their bodies.
"Well, I'll see you tomorrow!" She said, walking to the door. "Okay," He said, unlocking the door. He opened the door and held it open. She smiled at him as she walked out. He watched her walk away then he shut the door. When he turned around, Erik, Kiba, and Alex stood in front of him, their shoes on. "You guys gotta leave too?" He said sadly. "Yea', we figured since Katie left, we ought to leave too." Alex said. "Yeah, that's a good idea." Brian said. Kiba opened the door and stepped out. "Bye, Brian!" Kiba said as he walked away. "Bye, Orochi-Chan!" Brian said. "Bye, mate," Alex said, following Kiba. "Bye!" He said.
Erik still stood at the door like he was awaiting Brian's order. "See you tomorrow, 'kay." Brian said comfortingly. Erik nodded; Brian put his hand on Erik's shoulder and gave him a peck on the cheek. Erik smiled and walked out of the door, looking back at Brian. Brian smiled and waved at him. He then shut and locked the door.
He walked over to the couch and sat down next to Rose. Rose climbed into Brian's lap and snuggled up against him. "Teen Titans," He asked. "Yup," She muttered. "Cool," He said, smiling.
