You guys rock! I've been getting so many reviews! Keep them coming in!
This chapter isn't as great as some of the other chapters, but I hope you'll continue reading.
The next chapter "might" have a "little" more suspense, if you know what I mean. - Wink Wink -
Read & Review! It means a lot to me!
AshGrey: I absolutely love reading your reviews! You make me want to keep writing (: You remind me of myself! We react the same way, Haha. And it doesn't hurt to let your family know that you have feelings too! Cry your heart out! Also, I was just curious on what others thought about Usui and Misaki sleeping with each other. IF I decided to make a story about them, I wanted to know what people would prefer.
.Special: I'm right there with you! Even I don't know what's going to happen next. I think that's the problem with me. I'm soo excited about what's going to happen, so sometimes the story is a bit rushed. I'm sorry this chapter didn't have as much suspense!
Guest (The one who commented about details): Thank you so much for telling me that! Sometimes I felt that it'd be boring if I spent a long time just explaining details, but in this chapter, I tried to be more descriptive! Let me know what you think, okay? Ah, Also, since you're a guest, please indicate that you're the person who asked about the details! Thanks again!
Kitkat: Omg, you made me so happy! :D I'm trying to update as fast as possible! I got 8 chapters in 2 days, not bad right? BTW, I absolutely LOVEEE KIT KATS! Sorry, random fact about me, Haha. Thanks for reviewing though! You are AWESOME!
xXLillianaXx: I know exactly how you feel! Oh my goshhh! After I wrote that chapter, I wanted to work on the next one ASAP! I couldn't wait to see how I was going to continue in this chapter. I know this chapter probably isn't as interesting as others, but I promise I'll work harder in the next chapter!
Ishita.d: I know the story felt kind of rushed for me too. Thanks for letting me know! I get really excited about the main points of the story, so sometimes (Okay, I guess it happens a lot) I rush parts just so I can start writing the more "suspenseful" parts. I'm a such a bad writer, I really shouldn't be rushing.
Jui2014: Haha, I hope you did well on your test! I've been in the exact same situation as you. It happens to me all the time. Actually, it happened when I was reading your stories. Isn't that a coincidence? xD
ShannonJacob21: Thank you! Even that simple statement made my day! I hope you'll continue reading and reviewing. I love reading and responding to reviews.
Famous0618: I feel so appreciated! Thank you so much! Keep me posted on how you feel about each chapter okay? (:

The Marriage
"Hello?" Misa waved her hands in front of the stunned twins' faces.
Hiku and Miku looked at each other. In one swift movement, they ran out of the shop, and ran far away from the shop.
"Oh my god. I-i-i-it's her," Miku stuttered.
"I-I-I k-know," Hiku sputtered.
Both children we out of breath. They couldn't believe what just happened. They just looked at each other and leaned against a wall of a building. They had just met their mother. Their mother. Their father's wife. The wife of their father. The woman who-
"There you two are!" Kanou scolded them. "Do you have any idea how dangerous it is out here? If anyone knew who you two were, you could've gotten kidnapped. What if -"
Hiku and Miku jumped and were startled when Kanou had found them. They weren't expecting him to find them while they were running away from their mother. "Sorry," both twins apologized in unison. They hoped that Kanou hadn't seen them with their mother.
Kanou was shocked at their apology. They almost never apologized to anyone other than their father. "I-its okay…" Kanou said, feeling a bit guilty for yelling at them. "Well, it's almost time to meet up with your father. We'd better get going if we don't want him to wait long."
...
The twins just trekked silently behind Kanou, which was extremely unusual.
"Hey! How's my Prince and Princess?" Usui asked. "Did you have fun? Where did you guys go?"
"It was fine," Miku replied in a monotone voice.
Usui rubbed Miku's cheek with his hand. "Are you okay honey?" He thought it was odd that Miku wasn't the cheery person she usually was.
"Daddy? Can I ask you question?" She asked with her puppy-dog eyes. This was one of the traits she got from her father.
Hiku knew what she was going to do. So he grabbed her hand and squeezed it. "Daddy, we both have something we want to ask," he corrected.
Confused, Usui replied, "Of course. Anything. Is there something you wan-"
Miku started "Tell us about our mo-"
"ney. Our Money," Hiku cut in. "We heard that the Kingdom of Seika was going through poverty. Are the people in our country going to starve?"
"What? Not at all. In fact, we're actually doing very well. You don't have to worry, son." Usui assured. "Should we go have lunch now?"
"Of course," Hiku agreed.
"Why did you stop me," Miku muttered to Hiku.
"Because, we can't be sure that the woman we met today is our mother. What if it's not. It'll hurt father if we give him hope, just to let him down." Hiku whispered back.
"I'm sorry Onii-chan. I wasn't thinking that hard."
"It's okay Miku," Hiku patted Miku on her head. Another habit that he acquired from his father.
"Did you two say something?" Usui asked the mischievous children walking behind him.
"Nope, nothing at all," Miku smiled sweetly at her Papa Bear.
...
After lunch, Usui took his kids out on the streets and visited the stores. He bought them lots of toys and clothes, even though Hiku and Miku both denied wanting any of the things he bought. They already had tons of clothes and toys piling up in their room.
"How can I not spoil my two angels?" Usui smirked.
"Thank you father," Miku hugged his father very tight.
Usui hugged his little princess back, however, he still felt his arms were empty. He glanced at Hiku, who was standing in front of him, avoiding the sight of his father and sister hugging. "Anything wrong Hiku?"
"O-of course not."
"Aren't you going to give Daddy a hug," Miku looked confused. The both of them showed their affection to their father by hugging him. Why would Hiku stop all of a sudden?
"I-I'm a grown man now. Grown men don't hug their fathers." He explained. After today's occurrence with the gangsters, he understood how much he wanted to be a man. He didn't want any of his loved ones to get hurt. He just wanted to be able to protect them from any harm.
Usui walked towards his son. He put both of his hands on his shoulders, and looked into the boy's glimmering amber eyes. "Hugging is a form of love, my dear Hiku. Someone I loved once told me. 'Just like how a flower cannot blossom without sunshine, a person cannot live without love. Love is the flower that you've got to let grow.' Whoever said that hugging makes you less of a man, is a fool."
Both children just looked at their dad. He a quoted their mother. That would mean that he still remembered her.
"T-thanks Papa. I'm sorry," Hiku finally hugged Usui. "I actually wanted to give you a hug too," he admitted, while blushing.
"Good, shall we head home? It's getting late, isn't it?" Usui was happy that he had taught his children a life lesson.
"Yes!" The kids squealed as they walked, hand in hand, with their father to the limo.
...
After the long day, the kids were pretty much tired out. They fell asleep on the way back home in the limo.
"Master Usui, shall I call some maids to help you carry the twins to their rooms?" Butler Yukimura asked.
"No, I'll carry them myself. I don't look that weak, do I Yukimura?"
"O-of course not, I didn't mean to insult you."
"It's fine, have a good night Yukumira."
"Thank you master."
Usui took each child and carried one in each arm.
He walked throughout the dark hallways of the castle, and into the room of the twins. The room had white carpet, and there were two twin beds which were separated by a small table. He tucked in Hiku into his bed, and Miku into her bed. He was contemplating whether or not he should change their clothes, but decided not to in the end. He didn't want to wake them up, considering how peaceful they looked at the moment. He gave a last goodnight kiss to each of their foreheads.
"Goodnight my Prince Akihiko and Princess Miki." Usui shut off the lights and shut the door.
...
"Daddy, wake up!" Hiku exclaimed.
"Its time to get up Papa!" Miku shoot Usui
Miku was wearing a dress. The top of the dress was like a regular white T-shirt that was cut off by a yellow, frilly skirt at the middle of her waist. Today, she had her hair up in a cute bun and wore a headband with flowers on it. She wore yellow sneakers that matched her dress.
Hiku had yellow, white, and black checkered shorts on. A white polo shirt was nicely tucked into the shorts. Black suspenders went over his tiny shoulders and connected the front of the shorts with the back. The outfit was finished with a pair of brown sperrys.
Usui looked at the dressed up children in front of him. "What's today? Is there something important event happening today?" Usui wondered.
"No, can't we just come visit you?" Hiku tried to slick Usui's hair back.
"Satsuki-san said that we could come help you get ready, since we'll be going to Takumisa everyday with you now," Miku couldn't help but giggle at her brother fixing her father's hair. "Hiku and I picked out your suit and tie. It's yellow, so you can match with us!"
"What? Why are you guys coming with me everyday?" Usui inquired.
Hiku and Miku pull Usui out of his bed, and into the bathroom.
"Because, as the Kingdom's future leaders, don't you think we should at least grow up knowing what our country is like?" Miku answered.
"Anyways, get ready, and come out when you're done changing. We have to hurry Papa. Miku and I have places we want to visit today." Hiku noted. "Also, Kanou seems to be slowing us down. So we've decided that we'll be more safe without him. Besides, we'd attract more attention if he followed us right?"
"Right," Miku agreed before Usui could even interject.
Just like that, they twins closed the door on their dad. After about 5 minutes, Usui came out with his usual black suit on. None of them knew how to put on a tie, despite how perfect each of they all seemed. So they had to call Yukimura to come in and help Usui and Hiku put on their tie.
After they were all dressed and ready to go, they departed from their home to the Capital City, Takumisa, once again.
...
"Okay, as much as I'd love to, Papa can't come eat lunch with you guys today. I have an important meeting with some officials. But meet me here at 7:30 sharp. If anything happens, show them our family crest. Also, here's some money. If you need more, just drop by the Capitol Building, located in the middle of the city." Usui hesitated on leaving his two twins alone in the city. But he knew that there were many guards around the city, so they'd be safe. Also, Hiku wasn't exactly a defenseless little 6 year old. Hiku once brought down a 30 year old muscle man by himself. He chuckled just remembering the remarkable little version of himself.
Usui put a sack of golden coins into Miku's little yellow purse. The amount of coins were enough to buy a small house in Takumisa.
"We know dad," Hiku nodded. Usui had given his children rings with the royal family crest engraved on it. If anything bad were to happen, they could show it to just about anybody, and would get help from them. Miku always wore a necklace with the ring hanging on it, while Hiku attached it onto the chain of his watch. They always kept it hidden at all times, because if the wrong person were to see it, they would definitely be in danger.
Usui squatted down to their level, and the two kids went to each side of his face and kissed his cheek.
"Bye Daddy! Love you! Be safe okay," Miku quickly sputtered to him as she took Hiku's hand and ran towards a certain store.
Usui was just left there, waving to the backs of his precious twins. They grow up too fast, he thought.
…
On the corner of Ayusui Boulevard, was a tiny 2 storied building. The building was painted green towards its base, Everywhere else was painted white. There were flowers that sat on the sill of the little rectangular windows that sat on either side of the brown, wooden door. Above the door were the words, "Akimi Bookstore." Through the clear windows, you could see a raven black haired woman sorting out books. She wore light blue skinny jeans paired with a tucked in white blouse. On top of her outfit, she wore a black apron.
Ring ring!
Misaki turned towards the entrance of her bookstore. "Welcome! How can I help you-"
Two children stood at the door. One had the most beautiful blonde, curly hair. The other had spiky blonde hair. They both had amber eyes, and were dressed alike. "Oh, its you two again. I hope you two aren't getting into trouble again," she jokingly scolded them.
"Thank you for yesterday, Miss" Miku bowed to the woman.
"I'm sorry if I appeared rude. I'm grateful that you had saved my sister and I." Hiku added on.
"Sister? Are you two, by chance twins?"
Both kids nodded.
Hiku introduced themselves. "My name is Ak- I mean Hiku. And this is my younger sister Miku."
Misaki squatted down to their level, something only their father did to them. She stretched out her arm towards them. "Nice to meet both of you, I'm Misa Ayuzawa." She shook their hands. "So what brings you to my bookstore?"
"Uhm… we came to find books to read. We've run out of books at our house to read." Hiku quickly said. Technically, he wasn't lying to his mother. He had read all of the books at their house. He was just at the shop for a whole other reason.
"Oh, how great! I was just starting to think that children nowadays didn't spend enough time reading. How about this book?" Misaki gestured to a book. "It might be kind of difficult to read though."
"We already read that already." Miku remarked.
Even after a few hours, they kids didn't find a book they hadn't read yet.
"You two are certainly readers, aren't you?" She joked. She patted both twins on their head. "Whoa, you're hair is surprisingly soft, isn't it Hiku?"
"Yea… I guess…" Hiku replied, embarrassed.
She smiled, however, there was a hint of sadness in the smile.
This didn't go unnoticed by Miku. She hugged Misaki and started to pat her head. This was one of the things Usui did to cheer up Miku, and it always worked.
Misaki was stunned. The last person who patted her head like that was him. She shook her head. She couldn't be distracted with him in her mind. He had already had his own life. She also needed to move on. She almost jumped out of her skin once she had checked the clock.
"Oh! Look at the time. It's 3 quarters past 12. You two haven't eaten yet, have you? Why don't I whip something up, while you two keep looking for a book?" She suggested.
The twins' faces started to light up.
"Would you really?" Miku responded.
"We'd really really appreciate it if you could," Hiku added.
"Of course. It's no problem. But my cooking skills can't be compared to your mother's skills. I've never been good at cooking," Misaki admitted as she started cooking. The kitchen was in the back room. So there wasn't much of a distance between the kids and Misaki.
"It's okay, we don't have a mother," Miku said in her monotone voice.
Realizing that she had said something she shouldn't have, she apologized. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring up memories."
"It's fine. We don't have memories of her either," Hiku replied. "But you should do something about your food. It's about to burn," he pointed out.
"Ahh! Sorry. Thankfully it's not burnt," Misaki observed. "Would you two like to help me cook?"
"W-we've never cooked in our life though," Hiku noted.
"That doesn't matter. If I can cook, you can cook." Misaki chuckled. "And I used to be very bad at cooking. I almost food poisoned my husba...nd…"
"Y-you-you're married?" Miku stuttered. All of a sudden, her breathing was getting harder and harder.
"Something like that," Misaki uttered.
I know, I know. This wasn't my best chapter I've written. But I hope you still at least enjoyed it a bit!
Please Send me a Review! I'll be sure to respond to you (:
Thanks guys!
Btw, I decided that I should end every chapter with the same quote. Let me know if you guys think I should change it.
"If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all."
