Hello all.

Sorry for updating now, this haven't been so well lately.

So here is chapter 13, I'm still working on 14 but will update as soon as I'm finish.

Chapter 13

It was already late in the evening when Hikari helped Akira finish up the dishes. It was a long night of catching up and explaining how Jason became her son. The rest of the group already left and it was just Hikari, Jason, Kei, Tadashi, Akira and Karin left in the green house.

Cracking open a yawn, Hikari walked over to Jason and Kei where they were talking. "Jason, it's getting late. We best be getting back to the Hotel." Jason looked at his mother and laughed nervously while scratching the back of his head. "Uhm… about that" She looked at him dumbfounded.

"We have another sleep reservation" Jason said smiling nervously. Hikari still didn't understand. Kei walked over to her and kissed her check. "Hikari, Jason and I were talking and arranged that you two will stay the remainder time of our visit at my house" Hikari's eyes grew the size of saucers.

"Uh… Thank you Kei, but Jason worked hard to get that Hotel and we can provide for ourselves. So no thank you" Kei looked disappointed but suddenly smiled again. "Like I said Hikari, Jason and I were talking" She looked over at Jason, who was smiling at them.

Hikari raised an eyebrow "You planned this Jason?" Jason laughed and walked away before getting hit over the head. Sighing she said "Then I guess there is no way helping it, is there?"

"No, there isn't." Kei said looking at her lovingly. "Well then, Jason and I should go to the Hotel, get our stuff and check out"

"Already done, now come along. We need to go home" Kei said while walking over to Tadashi to say his goodbyes. Hikari on the other hand gaped after him. 'Did he just said that…that our….WHAT!'

The ride back was quiet but the comfortable quiet. It was only Hikari that was a bit nervous. 'It has been so long since I have stepped a foot into Kei's home' she though while looking out the window. 'He shouldn't think just because I'm back and we are staying in his home that I will be sharing a bed with him!' Looking over at Kei she started to blush at her past memories of what they already have done. Kei saw her blushing and couldn't help teasing her. "Aaaww is Miss second place thinking of perverted stuff?"

Hikari wanted to scream but looked at the now laughing Jason. "Jason, that is not funny!"

Walking into the house, Hikari heard a loud squeal and saw a little girl with blond hair running towards Kei. "Misaki? Why on earth are still awake? Your father is going to be very cross with you." The little girl made a pout. "Uncle Kei, I wanted to see you" Kei sighed and face palmed himself. "Misaki? Misaki?! Where are you?!" Hikari heard a voice from upstairs and saw a tall man with black hair walking towards the stair case. "Misaki? There you are. My deepest apologies Kei, I did put her to bed but…she…did…not…." The said man stopped in the middle of the stair case and stared at Hikari. Hikari's purse fell out of her hands.

"Atsushi?" Hikari whispered. The said man stood frozen on the stair case with wide, shocked eyes. 'I have to be dreaming or I am dead, because there is no way that that is my sister standing next Kei' Atsushi thought.

"Atsushi? Atsushi? Is that really you?" Hikari asked in a shaky voice. Atsushi eyes widen more. It was her. "Hikari?" Hikari ran up the stairs, straight into her brother's arms. "I'm home brother." She started to cry again. She is being such a cry baby today.

"Daddy? Who is she?" Hikari turned her head and saw the little girl looking at her. "Yes, I also would like to know" another voice said above them. Atsushi looked up and smiled. "Nel, remembered that I told you about my sister, Hikari?" The said woman nodded. Atshusi pointed a finger at Hikari. Nel started to squeal and grabbed Hikari. The woman started to babble on and on about her being missing and how Atshusi would never stop talking about her. "Uhm…." Was all Hikari could say.

"Honey? You're doing it again" Atshusi said and the woman stopped in mid-sentence. "I'm sorry. I'm a bit of an excessive talker. O I'm Nel by the way. Atshusi's wife and that…" she pointed a finger towards the little blond girl. "…Is our daughter. Misaki"

Putting her clothes away in the closet, Hikari could not help but smile. "And why are miss second place smiling?" Turning around she threw Kei with one of her towels. He only laughed. "What are you doing here Kei? I'm busy." Sitting on the bed he observed her for a moment until she turned around, also looking at him. "I was just wondering when you are coming to bed"

Hikari stiffened at his words. "Kei, listen. I know I'm back and I'm truly grateful that you looked out for my brother but that doesn't mean we can just go back to how it used to be" Kei's face sadden at the words but walked towards her and snaked his arms around her waist. "Okey, I understand but we are going out to dinner. Tomorrow. Just you and I." He whispered in her ear, sending shivers down her spine. Kei looked at her and then to her soft lips. He let his index finger play on her spine up and down. His one hand clasp the back of her neck and draw her near to him. Their breaths mingled together. Hikari's hands were on his chest, she could feel his fast heartbeat. She could not take it anymore and grabbed his tie, pulling him forward on to her lips.

The week went by so fast for Hikari. She and Kei had spent most of their time together and Jason had spent his time with Karin but it was time to go home. She had one last dinner date with Kei and she was busy with the last touch ups. At the restaurant Kei and Hikari sat in a private booth, away from prying eyes. "Hikari? I need to talk to you" Kei said in a serious tone but she knew what it was going to be about. "Hikari, why don't you come back to Japan?" She sighed. "Kei, I have been thinking about it but I just can't. My business is over there. Jason and I…our home Kei, our home is over there. I can't just leave everything and come back. I have worked too hard for these achievements. I cannot just drop it." Kei sat back, he knew very well what she meant but it still hurt.

Nodding his head, he took both of her hands in his and looked her deep in the eyes. "I understand Hikari. Please just promise me that you will still think about it?" She smiled at him. "I promise" Leaning forward he gave her a kiss on the check. "Thank you"

"Jason are you already packed?" Jason looked up from the couch he was lying on. "Uhm, yeah about that…mom? I need to talk to you" Hikari sat next to him, not understanding. It was the second time this evening that the two most important men in her life wanted to 'TALK' to her. "You see mom, Japan has one of the most incredible businesses and I thought of staying here until it's time to go to collage" Hikari sat up straight. "Jason, what are you talking about? Staying here? Where will you stay? What will you do? Have you already decided where you want to go to college?" Jason felt bombarded with the questions.

"He's going to stay here and shadow me and I will also help him in choosing the right college" Kei said to her from the door way. Hikari looked at him shocked. "Kei…." She couldn't finish as Kei held his hand up. "I think it will be good experience for him and he will be staying here, so there is no need to worry about any of those things." Hikari could only sit there. Jason and Kei has obviously talked about this so she could only nod in advance. "Okey, but I will be back in time for when Megumi's child is born."

"You are welcome anytime, you know that" Kei said with a smile and Hikari blushed madly. "And Jason, do not be any trouble. Okey?" Jason placed a hand over his heart saying "I, Jason, solemnly swear to be a good boy" opening one eye, he smirked. His mother is so going to kill him for doing that.

Okey so tell me what you guys think?

Surprised at Kei?
