"Genjirou, this is perfect" Fuji murmured staring out at the garden.
"Are you sure? I'm going to have to do some renovation if my instruments are going to fit. And if we have a family then we're going to-mmpf" Fuji silenced Genjirou with a kiss.
"You know you can't keep distracting me like this" Genjirou said after Fuji pulled away.
"I can and I'm saying this house is perfect. There's lots of room and its three stories. You can have the third story to yourself, I'll take the second as my photography studio" Fuji turned back to the garden.
"Then where will we sleep dearest? And if we have friends over?" Genjirou raised a blond brow.
"Downstairs is big enough for so many people. And it's a gorgeous home! What more do you need?"
"Alright, love. We'll take it then" Genjirou hugged his lover's lithe figure and nuzzled his sweet smelling neck.
"So we should tell the realtor" Fuji whispered.
"Five minutes" Genjirou closed his eyes.
"Is he still in Japan?" Genji asked tersely.
"He has already moved back here and will be here to further his career" Yakamoto Akira said referring to his clipboard.
"He needs to leave this country. We have to make him leave"
"Begging your pardon, sir, but there is no point in doing that. There is no reason for such a big businessman such as yourself to be concerned with such a small individual" Akira pushed his glasses up his nose.
"I suppose. Dismissed!"
Genji turned on his chair and faced the windows which showed a beautiful sunny view of Tokyo. His fist clenched as he realized he was losing his focus. All of the stupid Genjirou Steel. How dare he come in and ruin his entire family. Why had his father accepted him so readily? Why was the stupid blond man the reason for the whole family discord?
His phone rang and he saw it was a private number. He picked it up.
"Hello?"
"I have Sasuke. Prepare ten million dollars. I'll call again"
His blood ran cold.
"Who is this?!"
"No need for you to know Sanada-san. Prepare the money otherwise your son will be sent to you dead"
The line went dead.
"Is this true? Sasuke is missing?" Kazuki-san paced on the floor.
"Yes. I checked all places he could have been and have informed the police. Until then there will be nothing we can do" Genji replied.
"Sasuke is gone" Genji's wife, Sakura, was in tears and Mai rushed to comfort her.
"Genichirou has gone out to search with Seiichi and Renji" Genji said.
"You have no heart! You should be as sad as I am. But that frozen mask of yours is always on your face. This isn't a business deal! This is your son! Show some emotion!" Sakura sobbed.
Genji cleared his throat. "I'm going to bed" he swept out of the room.
"Why is he like this? He's not the man I fell in love with" Sakura whimpered.
"Shh Sakura my dear. He's just stressed. Let him go for a while. He will come round" Mai whispered.
Knock knock!
"Gen, there's someone at the door" Fuji shook his boyfriend awake.
"Right now?" Genjirou sat up and wore his fluffy slippers. He shuffled down the stairs and switched on the lights.
He peeked through the windows and opened the door. Sasuke stood there shivering in the cold.
"Sasuke?" Genjirou stepped aside and let the teen in.
"Sorry for intruding" this was more directed to Fuji who had followed Genjirou down.
"Sasuke, what are you doing here right now? You should be sleeping at home!" Genjirou was furious.
"Let's get him warmed up first, love. Are you hungry? Do you want to take a shower?" Fuji asked kindly.
"A shower would be nice" Sasuke replied.
"Go and then we will talk" Genjirou said.
After Sasuke had showered and eaten, Genjirou sat him down.
"Now I'm calling Genichirou and he'll take you home. Your parents must be so worried about you" Genjirou said.
"NO! Don't call my father or anyone!"
"Sasuke, you have to go home. I don't know what teenage hormonal problem you're dealing with but your parents are waiting for you"
"I faked a kidnapping" Sasuke muttered.
"You did what?" Fuji was horrified.
"I faked my kidnapping so that my dad could forgive you. I came to you so you can take me back and then dad will forgive you" Sasuke explained.
Genjirou sighed and knelt down in front of his nephew.
"I understand your intentions were good but please don't do something like this. There is no point in you doing this. Our problems are much deeper than you think. It can't be solved just by doing this. Now, get a spare coat from the closet. I'm taking you home"
"Okay" Sasuke looked almost hurt.
"I'll just change and start the car" Fuji left.
"Sasuke. You are just too cute sometimes" Genjirou hugged his nephew.
"Don't tell Dad I faked all this. He'll be super mad" Sasuke begged.
"I won't. We'll just say you snuck out and I found you wandering around when I went to get some groceries" Gnejirou replied.
Sasuke smiled and they headed out to Fuji's car.
"Sasuke! Oh thank heavens!" Sakura hugged her son tightly.
"Thank you so much, Genjirou" Kazuki said.
"You shouldn't be thanking me. It's only by sheer luck that I found him wandering about. Otherwise he would still be captive right now. I should go before Genji sees me" Genjirou replied.
"You should at least see him!" Sakura said.
"No, no. He doesn't need to see me. I'm just happy Sasuke is home safe. I'll be leaving now" Genjirou bowed and hurried out to the waiting car.
"Sasuke, don't do that again! Your father will be so happy you're home" Mai said.
"Sasuke"
They all looked up at the doorway where Genji stood with a small smile. Sasuke stood up and let his father hug him tight.
"You should thank Genjirou. He found him and brought him home" Kazuki commented.
"That blond?"
"Yes, he left since he did not want to enrage you" Mai explained.
Genjirou looked down at his only child in his arms and felt something stir in his chest.
"It's remarkable isn't it? Out of all people Genjirou found him" Yukimura turned around from the soup he was cooking to reply Sanada.
"It is but maybe it is fate trying to bring this family together" Yukimura suggested.
"We have to introduce you to my family" Sanada said with his arms folded.
"They already know me, Gen"
"As my boyfriend and future husband"
Yukimura fell silent as his heartbeat quickened. He was beyond nervous to announce their new relationship to Sanada's parents. They were quite open but still very traditional.
"I'm a bit nervous about that, Gen. Your parents know for years but I'm still afraid they won't accept us" Yukimura said.
He felt Sanada wrap his arms around him and leaned back against his boyfriend.
"We'll be fine. No matter what, I'm not letting you go" Sanada promised.
So it's been a while hasn't it? I have decided to finish off this fic as I had planned instead of ignoring it. Thank you for your patience!
