Chapter 12

"Auntie Akira!" Akira Karino turned around just in time to catch a little pink head girl running towards her. "Hallo Yuki. How is my little Angel doing?" The little girl laughed. "I'm doing fine" Akira looked over to Megumi and her husband, Yahiro, walking towards them. Akira saw that Megumi was walking very slowly due to the fact she was 8 month pregnant with their second child. The little girl tugged on Akira's hand to get her attention. "Where is Kalin?" Akira giggled as little Yuki still struggles with Karin's name. "She is in the kitchen making cookies. Why don't you go and help her?" The girl nodded and run towards the kitchen.

"Hallo Akira" Looking around again she saw that Megumi and Yahiro is finally in front of her. "Megumi, how are you feeling? I hope that monster of a husband is spoiling you" Yahiro growled next to Megumi. "Megumi, where is your board?" He asked irritated. Rolling her eyes, she slapped him on the back of his head. "I told you that the Doctor said it is good for an unborn child to hear his/her mother's voice. I swear you get worse with each pregnancy" Rubbing his head he only nodded. An angry Megumi was dangerous, but a pregnant Megumi was life threatening. He learned that the hard way when Megumi was pregnant with Yuki.

Akira saw the rest of the members also arriving. Ruyy with his wife, Finn. They owned a national rehabilitation resort for animals.

Jun and Sakura with their twin daughters, Jane and Julie. Sakura owned a Fashion photography company and Jun with his sister Megumi established the first ever multi choice music academy and Yahiro owned one of the largest lawyer companies in the world.

A loud crash was heard from the kitchen and Tadashi came running out with his arms full of food and a chocolate cookie in his mouth. "Dad! You come back here with those cookies! It's for the children!" Karin screamed running with a frying pan after her father and little Yuki with a spoon short on her tracks. Akira rolled her eyes and as soon as Tadashi ran past her he made contact with her fist that send him to Mars. Karin looked up and smirked.

"Was that really necessary?" Ruyy laughed.

"The moon isn't far enough anymore" Akira stated it as a matter of fact. Tadashi came down like an asteroid from space but got up none the less and took his seat.

"Is everyone here?" Karin asked looking around. "No, Kei is still on his way" Ruyy said while making himself comfortable on the two seater next Finn.

"I'm here" someone said from the walk way. The group turned their heads to see Kei Takishima walking at a steady pace towards them. Kei didn't want to be there. It was 10 years. It had been 10 years since that horrid year where everything had fallen apart. The group looked at him, knowing what he was thinking about. They were trying very hard not to remember.

"Jason. Where are we going? And why on earth am I wearing a blindfold?" Hikari asked very confused. She knew she was in a Taxi but that was about it. "I thought you said we are going to dinner?" Jason snickered. "We are going to dinner, but it is a surprise as to where."

Hikari sighed in frustration. She knew when the Taxi had stopped. She heard Jason climbing out of his end and walked over to her side opening the door and helped her out of the car. Now she knows what is must feel like to be blind and she hated it. Standing there on the side walk, she waited for Jason to pay the Taxi driver. While waiting she noticed that it was extremely quiet. " Jason, are you sure we are at the right place? It seems awfully quiet?"

"Yes, we are at the right place and can you please stop worrying" He wanted to laugh so loud, he barely could keep it in. Taking her arm he led her down the path. After a while she heard a door squeaked open and she was suddenly pulled forward and her the door shut again. "Okey we are here" Jason said in a low almost whispered voice.

Taking of the blind fold, she gasped at the sight before her. She had to be dreaming. She had to be. " Welcome to the SA's greenhouse" He said smiling. Hikari's eyes began to get moist with the tears.

"Jason? How…" She couldn't finish her sentence.

"C'mon let's go" He started dragging her through the trees.

"Uh…. Jason? You know there is a path we can walk on?" She said asking. " Are you sure, you want to go that way?" He asked. Hikari stilled mid-way in her steps and in that moment she heard laughter and voices. Grabbing her son's arm, she yanked him towards the trees, away from those voices. That o so familiar voices. She looked Jason in the eyes.

"What's the meaning of this?" Hikari whispered angrily. Sighing again he dragged his hand through his hair. " I just thought that it would be nice that you could see how your friends where doing, even if it means doing that through the side lines." She started to cry. This boy of hers.

Taking her hand he lead her towards a tree near the seating area with much foliage so it was still enough cover for them, from the others. Hikari gasped again seeing her friends sitting there as she always saw them in her dreams.

Akira serving her delicious tea and delicacies. Tadashi stuffing his mouth full. Megumi and Yahiro arguing on why she doesn't have her board with her. Sakura staring into Jun's eyes. Ruyy petting a squirrel, while Finn fed the little animal. She also saw a few children playing on a patch of grass near the seating area and now and then running over to the grownups.

'They all grew up. They all look… happy' She thought but then her eyes came to rest on Kei. He was just sitting there on a double couch, eating some food in silence. He looked so lonely. Tears started to form again, this was breaking her heart. "Jason? Let's go" She said while slowly walking deeper into the trees, away from the sight.

"Thank you all for coming" Karin said standing in front of the seated group. "It looks like you all are enjoying yourself" They all laughed. "More like, how we used to be" Jun said. Karin raised an eyebrow. "Really? How so?"

"well Akira would spoil us with her delicious tea's and food, Tadashi would stuff his face and that would end up in Akira hitting him with a tea pot or chair. Megumi and I would relax with Ruyy. All that is different now, is that we are with our partners and kids"

" And Hikari isn't here" Kei said, completing Jun's words.

Hikari stopped in her tracks, hearing her name said with so much sadness. Looking back she saw the once laughing faces where now clad in pain and sadness.

"How was it when she was here?" Karin asked. Kei let a small smile appear. "She would usually challenge me to a contest, whether it be the next exam or who can run the fastest but she is the love of my life." Ruyy laughed "Remember how you would try to let her see how much you loved her?"

Kei smiled "Yeah, she was really dense but she eventually came around" They all nod. "Yeah, I remember after she brought you back from London, you two were inseparable." Akira said.

Hikari stood there, a smile spread on her face. She remembered it all so well even her undying love for Kei. It was all still there.

"Remember what you used to call her?" Megumi asked. They all laughed but Hikari felt her eye twitched. Even though it has been 10 years since Kei, or anyone in that matter, had called her that, she still got ticked off. "Yeah, I can remember it as good as yesterday" Karin looked at him " What did you call her?"

Kei smirked " I always called her Miss second place"

That did it, Hikari saw red. No not just red, her blood was boiling.

"TAKISHIMA!"

Marching out of the trees she stomped her way to the seated area and pointed an accusing finger at him. "Takishima! How many times must I tell you? Do not call me MISS SECOND PLACE!"

Silence

Hikari took a deep breath to calm herself then noticed what she had just done and where is currently standing. Jason walked over to Karin and they both looked at the group now staring at Hikari.

Akira that was pouring tea into a tea cup, looked up with the tea still pouring into the cup that started to overflow.

Tadashi was in the middle of eating his cake and the piece that was halfway to his mouth fell out. Yahiro and Megumi gaped at the girl standing in front of them and Ruyy and Fin stared at her with wide eyes.

Hikari looked back at Akira. The poor girl was shaking and almost let go of the tea pot when Hikari stepped in and caught it.

"Hikari?" Akira whispered. Was it really her best friend? Was Hikari really standing in front of her? Hikari walked towards her and as soon as Hikari's hand touched Akira's shoulder the said girl started to cry and crashed into her best friend giving her a big bear hug.

"Hi… Hi…HIKARI!" Hikari smiled and also started to cry. "I'm home Akira. I'm home"

Hearing another sniff behind her she turned her head and saw Megumi, Sakura and Finn with red watery eyes. Holding out her one arm the said three girls rushed in and also gave hugs to Hikari. The men stood up and also rushed over to her and soon everybody crowded her, except for Kei.

Looking over to him, she met his eyes. "Kei" she whispered.

Ruyy saw this and grabbed Tadashi by the collar and started to drag him away which in return he grabbed Akira to be dragged along. Akira punched Tadashi away and wanted to rush back to Hikari when she felt a hand on her shoulder and saw it was Tadashi. "Let them have a moment honey." Looking back she nodded.

Kei stood there with wide shocked eyes. He wanted to run to her but was afraid that she would run. Like the last time. Hikari also stood there looking into his eyes and her brain said 'Run. Run into his arms. Return to his arms' Taking one step forward, Kei grabbed her body and squished her to him, encircling his arms around her tightly.

"Tell me this isn't a dream. Please tell me this is not a dream" He whispered into her hair, inhaling her scent. Feeling the very essence of her body on his. She shook her head in his chest and grabbed on to his shirt tighter. "It's not a dream Kei. I'm really here. I'm home" She started to cry and he held her tighter, if it was even possible. Looking up to the night sky he thanked who ever brought her back. Letting her go just a bit, he looked deep into her eyes and didn't want to wait a second longer and kissed her softly. Hikari squeaked, as it was unexpected but soon leaned into the kiss and sighed in relief.

Jason and Karin smiled at the scene that played before them. "Thank you Karin" She looked at the boy next to her and saw so much love and appreciation in his eyes, she only nodded not trusting her tongue at that moment.

After a few minutes the whole SA group was sitting down, with Hikari next to Kei. His arm was wrapped around her shoulder and she didn't mind. She thought that it would be awkward or just plain weird, but she never felt more at home and more safe then at that moment. 'Why did I run away last time?!' she mentally scolded herself but let it go seeing that everything seemed back to normal but it was just the opposite. She had a son. Thinking of her son , she looked around and saw him talking to Karin. Smiling she knew that he had something to do with this and because of that she loved him even more, if possible.

"Karin? Who is this boy you're talking to?" Akira asked, breaking into Hikari's mind.

"This is my friend, Jason. He helped with this evening 'events'" she said laughingly. "Really? How so?" Akira asked not understanding.

"He is my son" Akira heard behind her and saw Hikari smiling at her. Hikari felt Kei tensed next to her and she had to sigh.

"He is your what?!"

Wow, okey so I hope I did some justice as to how Hikari and Kei met again.

And do not worry, this is not the last chapter yet... There is somethings that still has to happen

And I am glad to say that there will be no deaths further on.
