Epilogue
9 yrs later
Amu ~ 26 Ikuto ~ 28 Yoru ~ 7 Ran ~ 5
"Yoru don't do that!!!" No Put it down nicely." I said looking at the 6 year old before me. His hair was purplish and his wide golden eyes looked from the picture in his hands to me and back again. He set the frame on the table. "I was just looking at it." Yoru said pouting. "Yes, well it's a very important picture." I said folding my laundry. Yoru sighed, "It's a picture of you and Dad kissing." His voice was sarcastic as he sat on the edge of my bed. I placed the folded clothes in a drawer. "Yes on our wedding day." I said . Yoru shook his head. "I just don't get it….girls have cooties. I'm never gonna get married." Yoru declared. I laughed.
"How long have you and Dad been married?" I smiled, "Next week will be our ten year anniversary." "So what did you get me for Christmas seeing how next week so special?" Yoru asked. "That's a secret. Go downstairs and keep your sister company. Your Dad will be home soon." I said putting the rest of my clothes away. "Do I have to? It's not like ran is doing anything, she's just sleeping." I looked at Yoru.
"Momma!!!!" Ran wailed from downstairs. "Yoru go." I said. He huffed, slid off the bed and walked out of the room. He came back seconds later. "See I didn't even have to go downstairs." Yoru was holding his little sister's hand. My five year old daughter was next to her brother with her thumb slightly in her mouth, her yellow star plushy tucked securely under that arm and her hand in Yoru's.
"Momma I had a bad dream." Ran said breaking away from her brother. I sat on the bed and pulled her into my lap. "It's okay, I'm here." I said. Yoru sat down next to me. "Don't be such a baby Ran." Yoru said. I knew he meant to comfort her but Ran thought he was being mean. "If you keep being mean to me Santa won't bring you any presents." Ran said glaring at Yoru. Yoru got off the bed.
"Well you shouldn't be bothering me and Daichi when ever he comes over." Yoru pointed out. "You two stop bickering and go downstairs, your Dad should be home any minute now." I was half way down the stairs when I heard Ran cry, "Yoru!!! Give me my star back!!" Yoru was holding Ran's plushy above his head so she couldn't reach it. "Yoru be nice to your sister!" I said walking into the kitchen. I listened to the sounds of Yoru teasing Ran.
"You only want it because Daichi gave it to you!!!" Ran protested, "Nu-unh!!!" The door opened and Ikuto walked in. They stopped fighting and ran over to their father. "Where's your mother?" Ikuto asked kneeling between the two of them. "She's in the kitchen." Yoru said. Ikuto stood up and walked towards me. His suit was unkempt and rumpled, his shirt was half tucked in, the tie around his neck was loosened and the top 3 buttons of his shirt were undone. The perfect male model.
"So did you get attacked by screaming fan-girls or are you having an affair?" I asked teasingly. Ikuto sighed, "You caught me. I am having an affair with the most beautiful girl I have ever laid my eyes on." Ikuto emphasized the word girl. I wrapped my arms around him. "How could you?" I asked, playing hurt. "We've been together for the longest time. She told me she loved me and that she would mary me. And she did, in fact she has a ring exactly like that." Ikuto said kissing my ring finger and gazing at the gemmed heart. He held my hand up to the light. The ring sparkled and shone. "You know we have an anniversary next week….8 years….no, 9 years….. No, exactly 10 years." Ikuto said.
"Yeah hard to believe." Ikuto smiled impishly. "Yeah it is hard to believe. You're 26, you are too old for me." Ikuto teased. I escaped from his hold. "I am not that old!!! If I remember correctly it was your birthday only a few weeks ago. And besides you're 28. You're almost in your 30's." I walked back to the kitchen. I watched as Ikuto played with Ran and Yoru. "An early Christmas present for you Yoru." Ikuto pulled out a black box, inside the box was an ornate silver key on a chain. "Daddy don't I get a present?" Ran asked.
"Of course anything for my star." Ikuto pulled out a red box and inside it was a silver star with a miniature pink diamond in the center. I watched my family from where I was standing. Ikuto looked at me and stood up. He wrapped his arms around my waist and leaned into my body, "Don't think I've forgotten about you Mrs. Tsukiyomi. You can have your present later tonight. After hours of course." I shivered as Ikuto's warm breath slid down my neck. "I accept."
