Sorry for the long wait. I've been working, I've been sick, and my laptop crashed. *sniff sniff* But now that I have a new laptop I can update my story. For this chapter, imagine Akito having a tattoo. Wouldn't that be cool. Anyway, on with the story, again sorry for the wait.

It had already been about a week since Akito's brother started living at the Main House. He did behave and follow the rules, but he had both Teri and Akito bothering him for fun. Akito always had all the fun messing with his little brother's head just to make Tohru laugh, and Tohru thought it was all entertaining to witness older siblings messing around with their younger siblings. She never had any siblings, but the Sohmas were as close to being brothers and sisters to her as it gets, and her two best friends were like sisters to her too. But she never thought of Akito as a brother at all, she thought of him as what they are right now – a couple in love.

As a couple, they had no secrets; they never kept secrets and they shared all of their secrets. Even a day had come when Akito had his shirt off just to show off his good looks to Tohru. That was when she noticed something black on his shoulder; she even saw the same black mark on his other shoulder. When he turned around, Tohru saw what looked like ink in Akito's skin – a tattoo. She was completely shocked; she had never seen it before.

"Is that a tattoo?" she asked.

"Yeah," Akito answered. "It's not finished though. I got it a couple years ago, before my mom died. And it was because of that I didn't get it finished. It was supposed to be two dragons breathing fire and forming a phoenix right on my wrists."

"Why don't you get it finished?" asked Tohru.

"I've been thinking about it," said Akito, "but the guy I went to a couple years ago, I don't even know if he's still there."

"Who?" asked Kureno who heard everything.

"The guy that did my tattoo a couple years ago," Akito answered. "I don't even know if that place is still there."

"Kujo's Tattoo Parlour?"

"That would be the place," said Akito.

"Yeah it's still there," Kureno answered, "hell, the guy is still there, he owns the place."

"Let's go there right now," said Akito. "I wanna get this tattoo finished."

With that, Akito put his shirt back on, and then he went with Kureno and Tohru to get his tattoo finished. They walked into the place, and it looked exactly as Akito remembered. He even recognized the owner himself; even the owner recognized Akito after two years. But they didn't waste any time, Akito just wanted to get it done and over with. He took his shirt off which made Tohru blush, and he sat down on the stool and the guy immediately went to work.

"So what made you delay?" the guy asked.

"Well, my sister and I had been going through depression, and it took us a while to work our way out of it," Akito answered.

"Oh yeah, I heard there was an accident and your sister was a victim of it."

"So was my mom. She died in that accident," said Akito as he winced when the ink needle pierced his skin. "That's what caused the depression."

"You look a little happier now," the guy said. Akito looked at Tohru.

"That's all thanks to this beautiful girl here," he said. "We're engaged."

"Congratulations."

After nearly two hours of sitting around, Akito's tattoo was finally finished. He was happy, and so was Tohru. After they left the tattoo shop, they went to the store to purchase a special solution to soothe the pain and reduce skin irritation; Akito used it twice a day. His brother was jealous, but he didn't care, the other Sohmas were surprised, but they admired the design of his tattoo. Tohru absolutely loved it, and Akito always took his shirt off just to show it off; but tonight, he kept it off.

They were having an evening to themselves, the lights were dim. They stood there facing each other, deep love was in their eyes; soon enough they were in each other's arms. Things started heating up as Akito captured Tohru's lips in a passionate kiss, and discarded themselves from their clothes. He laid her down on the bed; he thrust into her and started moving slowly making Tohru moan for more. He sped up and went harder until he exploded and spilled his seed inside her, and then he lay down and covered her and himself with the sheets and they fell asleep in each other's arms.

-Five Days Later-

Akito noticed Tohru had been acting strange lately, he didn't know why. What he didn't know was that Tohru was actually hiding something from him. "Tohru is something up?" he asked.

"I have something to tell you," said Tohru with a big smile on her face. She took Akito's hand in her own. "I'm pregnant."

Akito froze completely.

"Are you serious?"

Tohru nodded still keeping that big smile on her face as Akito smiled and took his fiancée in his arms. They were both very happy to be having a child.
