Chapter 2

Purple, Points and Promises

"Good morning!" Mother sang dancing into the room. My eyes shot open to find her carrying a tray with breakfast on it. "Miku came over and she helped me work that cooking contraption!"

"You mean the stove" I asked rubbing my eyes. She set the tray on my lap. "It's not that difficult to work a stove mom"

"But it's hot and you know how well I did making your birthday cake when you were 6" Mom blushed. "It took a weak to replace everything."

I sighed. "Tell Miku, thank you."

"Well of course! Please enjoy breakfast!" Mom danced happily out of the room. I looked down at the food. There was a glass of orange juice, a cheese omelet and four pieces of bacon. I smiled and took a bite of the omelet. I smiled. It tastes so good. I quickly finished the food then carried the tray downstairs. Miku sat at the kitchen table talking to mom.

"I wish Piko would come a visit but it's too bad he can't!" Mom sighed.

"A shame" Miku agreed.

"Oh hello Gumi!" mom shrieked.

Miku smiled at me. "Hello Gumi, how are you?"

"I'm lovely. Thank you for breakfast. It was delicious." I said.

"You're very welcome. I love to cook."

"You're a witch correct? So you like to cook from the qualities you inherit from witches?"

"That is exactly right. Witches and warlocks love to make concoctions which directly influence my love for cooking. Just like what you've inherited, influences you as well. Your qualities that make you you are directly made to fit the same as a cat. That is what happens to us when we were born from a mystical creature…though I never thought a Cat Half Bread would come from a Siren and a vampire."

"My father was a vampire?"

"Yeah but I ate him" Mom shrugged. "He didn't taste very good. Vampire flesh tastes like frog legs" mom stuck her tongue out.

"You ate the man who got your pregnant?" I asked.

"Well I was still living in the ocean then. I was still like the others but when I found out I was pregnant I went to the land and left my fellow Siren who were very angered by my actions. I haven't returned. If I do, they'll find me and kill me. I have betrayed my fellow Siren by giving birth to a child that is not a Siren. This is the fate of a woman who cross mate."

"But you are safe here" Miku pointed out.

"Yes of course" Mom smiled. "That's why I chose this house."

"Oh I almost forgot. Gakupo asked me to give this to you" Miku held an envelope out to me with my name elegantly written on it. I sighed and tore the envelope open.

Dear Gumi,

Come to the house tonight at 8 O'clock.

Were what's on your bed

Love,

Gakupo

I sighed and crumpled the letter. "Who does he think he is ordering my presence? Do I have a choice? Damn him!" I tossed the letter in the trash. "Tell Gakupo, if he wants me to meet him, he can get his lazy ass over here and ask me himself. If I needed him I'd at least call. Men are so pathetic." I walked up stairs angrily.

On my bed sat some old time Victorian dress. "Damn that man! I don't wear what he tells me!" I threw the dress into my closet and slammed the door. "Damn that man!"

At exactly 8 O'clock I was reading a book on my bed when my window opened and in came Gakupo looking like he was going to a party in the Victorian age. He wore all black with his purple hair down. It was much longer then I thought. He looked even more attractive then yesterday.

"I asked you to come see me and I find you here reading a book." Gakupo sighed. "You're much more stubborn then I thought."

"And you're a pain in the ass." I put a bookmark in my book then set it aside. "Who do you think you are ordering me around like that? You could have at least said please." I got up and put my book away on my book shelf. "And for your information, no women like to be summoned by a letter except those girls that are crazy fans of that crap." I turned to him. "And I'm not going anywhere."

Gakupo grabbed my hand. "Then what do you want to hear Gumi?"

"Nothing. I'm not a girl that likes that romantic crap…though I don't mind it either."

Gakupo smiled deviously. "Come, I've got some romantic crap for you."

"Oh hell no! Let go!" I snapped.

"Oh I almost forgot." Gakupo let go and walked over to my closet. He looked around and saw the dress I left on the floor of my closet. He picked it up and held it out to me. "Put this on."

"Don't order me around! I'm not your pet!"

"You're a cat so technically you are."

I snatched the dress from him. "Fine." I glared at him. "But I have a request also."

"What is that Miss Gumi?"

"You will not try to make me mate with you. Not ever."

"I'm afraid I can't do that but I can wait a while."

"Then we agree?" I asked holding my hand out to him. He smiled and shook my hand. Then his smile turned devious and he pulled me forward putting his lips on mine. My eyes widened as his arms wrapped around me. The dress fell from my hand and drifted to the floor. I tried to push away but his arms were too tight. My eyes narrowed. Suddenly his eyes began to glow purple. My eyes widened. He's trying to control me. Then everything began to fog as my body moved against my orders. Then…everything faded away as my body continued to move on its own.

When I awoke I was staring at a mans bare chest. He was so warm. I blinked a few times then looked down at myself. My face turned bright pink. I just…lost my virginity. You've got to be kidding me! I looked up to find Gakupo sleeping. My eyes narrowed. He used mind control to make me do this. I tried to retrace my memory. Slowly everything began to come back to me. I shut my eyes tight. Am I really that slutty…I did some rather…crazy things…I don't think I could of done the same without mind control but I guess every action I preformed was what Gakupo wanted.

But maybe…maybe he just told me to do something and I did all of that like I would if I wasn't on mind control…I have a feeling it's more on the lines of that then him planning the whole thing out. Thank the lord I'm on the pill or I'd be totally screwed. I smiled deviously. Didn't think about that one did you Gakupo?

I looked up at him again. He was still asleep. He really is gorgeous. I lifted a small piece of his long purple hair. I guess everything wasn't so bad (minus the part about mind control). Maybe…maybe I'll agree to procreate but when I do, it will be when I want.

Gakupo's eyes opened. I let go of his hair. He smiled. "You're finally awake. I was wondering when the affects would were off."

"That's right; I'm not under your mind control or whatever." I smiled deviously. "But you didn't take into account one thing."

"What?" Gakupo asked curiously.

"I'm on the pill"

Gakupo's eyes widened. "You are not"

"I am to. I've got the pills in the medicine cabinet to prove it. And I'll keep taking it because I will decided when I'll give birth to mutant babies. You barely even do anything. I have to do the work carrying your mutant baby so I get to chose ok?"

Gakupo chuckled. "And I thought I'd have to do this every time so I could procreate."

"What am I to you? Your baby momma or something?"

"Of course not. I'd prefer to think of you as a sex monkey."

I got up. "Second thought, it's never gonna happen again. You feel me."

Gakupo got up and wrapped his arms around me from behind. "I'm kidding. You're much more important to me then a sex monkey."

"I don't trust any words you say to me. You just want to procreate. I don't want to hear it."

Gakupo pulled me close hugging me from behind tightly. "Every word I will tell you now is genuine." His lips whispered along my ear. "I want you in particular. I could have easily found another women if I wanted to procreate but I waited 19 years for you. What does that tell you Gumi?"

"How old are you exactly?"

"154 but that's not important." Gakupo hugged me tighter. "Understand." He kissed my hair. "I've waited a long time. Understand that having you around now makes it difficult for me to control myself."

"So you're saying it was easier when I'm not around?" He hugged me tighter. At this point I was starting to feel a bruise coming on. "Gakupo you're hurting me."

He loosed his arms. "Sorry." He kissed my neck. "It was more difficult when you weren't around."

"So you're saying that you fell in love with me before I was even born."

Gakupo sighed. "No…in the beginning, I only cared about procreating…but when you were born and your eyes stared into mine with a smile on your cute face…things changed…so I waited…and now your old enough to be all mine."

"That sounds so creepy and sweet at the same time. Falling in love with a baby. You old weirdo." I elbowed him behind me.

"So what now?"

I shut my eyes and didn't say a word. Do I really want to be with Gakupo? I mean he did just use mind control to have sex with me but then again he's waited a long time for that. He's waited so long for me…so should I give him a chance or not?

I opened my eyes. "You're all mine." I laid my hand gently on his cheek and turned my head a little so I could look at him. His face turned to happiness with a matching half smile.

His eyes shut. "I've waited so long to hear those words." He hugged me tighter. I'm gonna have such a big bruise. "You can't even begin to know how happy I am"

"Maybe if you loosen your grip I can figure it out" I said out of breath. Gakupo's eyes shot open as he let go. I coughed and clutched my stomach. "What are you, a body builder?"

Gakupo laughed. That was the first time I've ever heard him laugh. His laugh is…nice. I wonder why he doesn't seem to laugh too much.

"Alright Gumi. I've got work this after noon." He began to dress again. "Kaito had us dress in our Victorian outfits. We tend to have themed days sometimes. Brings in good business." He put his coat on then walked over to me. "Come by today alright. Kaito says he's got a surprise for you…I don't have a clue but it'll be good." He gave me quick kiss. "I'll see you later." He walked over to my window and jumped out. My eyes widened. I ran over to the window covering my boobs with my arms so no one outside could see them. Gakupo was walking like nothing happen down the drive way. I sighed. He's such an ass!

"Gumi!" Kaito got up from the couch and walked over to me. "You look beautiful today." Kaito took my hand and kissed it.

"Gakupo said you had some surprise for me." I took my hand away from him.

He smiled. "How would you like to be a host?"

"No thanks" I said immediately.

"Gumi!" Piko shrieked running across the room. He tackled me in a hug.

"Uh hi Piko." I said awkwardly.

"So are you gonna be a host Gumi? I really hope you will!" Piko said looking at me hopefully.

I sighed. "Why are you so damn cute?" I mumbled.

Piko smiled. "Yeah!" he hugged me tight. "Then I want to request you first!"

"What? Already?" I yelped.

"Pretty please" Piko made puppy dog eyes.

I sighed. "I need to learn what to do anyways."

"Yeah!" Piko directed me over to a couch and sat down. I sat down next to him.

"Slow down Piko" Kaito said placing his hand on Piko's shoulder. "We still have a problem" Kaito looked behind us. I turned. Gakupo sat with a pretty girl with giant breast. She was fiddling with his purple hair and laughing flirtatiously. Gakupo seemed to be amused with his mysterious smile on his face.

"You think he won't like it?" I asked.

"I think he'll break my arm for it." Kaito said nervously scratching the back of his neck and laughing with a nervous look on his face.

"Tell me if he does anything, he won't interfere as long as I'm alive. He knows he's already walking on thin ice. You'll be fine." I crossed my arms. "So Piko's my first customer right?"

"Yeah! Then I'll teach you all about hosting!" Piko shrieked.

"I don't believe we've officially met" someone said. I looked up. It was Len and Rin. Len was the one that spoke.

"It's so nice to meet you!" Rin shrieked then hugged me tight.

"Uh it's nice to meet you too." I said with wide eyes.

"Now Rin, don't scare the new host." Len pulled Rin away. "I'm Len and this is my sister Rin. It's a pleasure to meet you Mrs. Gumi."

"Len, she's not really your sister" Kaito pointed out.

"It's easier to introduce us this way rather then explaining everything" Len said.

"Yeah! Don't ruin the fun Kaito!" Piko announced.

"Yeah!" Rin and Len said together. "Don't ruin the fun!"

"Len, Rin will you help me teach Gumi how to be a host?" Piko asked with excitement.

"Well of course" Len said then sat down on the other side of the couch.

"But what kind of type is she?" Rin asked sitting next to Len and sliding her arms around his arm.

"Type?"

"Yeah, we all have a type. Len and I are the little devil type."

"And I'm the boy Lolita type" Piko said with a smile. "And Kaito is the princely type."

"No wonder he's such a pain in the ass" I mumbled.

"And Kiyoteru is the cool type" Len said.

"And Meiko's the psycho bitch type" Rin snickered.

Suddenly Meiko appeared and grabbed Rin by the hair. "And you're the get stabbed in the face type" Meiko's eyes narrowed. "Buzz the fuck off." She let go. "Honestly, you two are the biggest pains in the ass."

"You hate us because you know us to well." Len crossed his legs and arms as if he was a prince. "But now we have a new one. We haven't had one since Neru joined us."

"I'm back!" a girl with bleach blond hair tied into a side ponytail shrieked opening the doors. She scanned the room and spotted Len. "Len! You look cute as always." Neru flew onto the couch and tackled him in a hug. Her eyes widened. She quickly pushed away and sat with flushed cheeks. "Sorry, I was just excited. I haven't been here in a while." Neru smiled at everyone. "Did you all miss me?"

"Well of course Neru. It's not home without you." Kaito said taking her hand and kissing it.

Neru blushed an even brighter red. "Why do you always do that to me?"

"Neru's the girl Lolita type. Our host club is special because you'll rarely find a host club with both men and women. Technically a female host club would be a hostess club but we didn't have women here when we started" Len explained.

"Shouldn't we go over what types we have before picking one for Gumi?" Piko asked tapping his chin in thought.

"Well, Gakupo's the seductive type, Meiko's the mysterious sexy type, Piko's the Boy Lolita type, the twins are the little devil type, I of course am the princely type, Neru's the Girl Lolita type, Sora's the strong and silent type, Rook's the bad boy type, Kiyoteru's the cool type, Dell's the boy rocker type, Lily's the girl rocker type, Teto's the sneaky type and Miki's the sweetheart type. So…there really isn't much left." Kaito tapped his chin. "Kiyoteru, what do you think?" Kaito called.

Kiyoteru sat with a guest who seemed to have just gotten off of work. She was rather pretty for a woman who looked like an uptight lawyer. Her bobs were pretty big. I looked at my chest. Hers are so much bigger then mine.

"I'm with a guest Kaito" Kiyoteru said with a calm and cool face.

"It's alright. My time is almost up anyways." She smiled. "I'll see you again soon Kiyoteru." The woman got up and crossed the room to pay Sora.

"Kaito, you know it's not good for business if you interrupt when were working" Kiyoteru sighed getting up.

"Whatever" Kaito waved him off. "What do you think?"

"That's a difficult question." Kiyoteru sighed. "I'd have to say she's about along the same lines as Gakupo. From a through analysis, I'd say she's the mysterious seductive type."

"I'd have to agree" Meiko nodded.

"Yeah then Gumi can be a host now!" Piko shrieked hugging me.

"You! Girl! Get away from my Piko!" a red haired girl that looked to adorable to be angry ran over to us. She tore Piko away and hugged him like he was a precious stuffed animal. She glared at me. "Get your own Piko"

"Boo! Miki! I want to be Gumi's first customer!" Piko complained throwing a mini fit.

"What are you doing? Most of you have customer's that should be here soon" Gakupo said joining us.

"Buzz kill" Meiko moaned walking away.

"Fine" Len sighed. He helped his sister up and led her away. Neru sighed and got up. Miki dragged Piko away through Piko's whining. Kaito sat on the couch next to me. Kiyoteru went over to the bar and began to talk to Sora who was putting money into a gothic looking cash register.

"Gumi's going to be our new host" Kaito said coolly just like a prince.

Gakupo's eyes narrowed. "Never."

I stood up and hugged him around the neck. "What if I want to be a host, what will you do then Gakupo?"

His arms slid around my back in a tight hug. "I don't want you to."

I fiddled with his hair with sorrowful eyes. "But I really want to be a host. Won't you let me? You wouldn't deny the women who will one day bare your children go unhappy would you?"

Gakupo's eyes narrowed. "That's a cruel card to play." His angry eyes turned to amusement and added a mysterious smile to go with them. "You've grown up smart." I gave me a quick kiss. "Fine." He pulled me closer. "But in return, you'll come with me tonight."

"But it's a full moon isn't it?"

"Which is why you'll be joining me in my room."

"I'm still on the pill" I whispered.

"I'm fully aware." His lips whispered against my ear. "But I still can enjoy you as much as I want."

"I think one major person is against that."

"I'm stronger then you."

"You wouldn't."

He chuckled. "Yes your right." He let go. "I still want to see you Gumi." He gave me a much longer kiss this time. "I've waited to long to be with you to be away from you."

"Ok you seductive bastard." I pushed away. "I'm tired and I'm sleeping in your room. Don't you even think about doing anything to me or I'll claw your face off."

"So violent." Gakupo smiled his amused mysterious smile which only seems to bother me more and more then more he smiles like that. "Run along my love. I won't bother you."

My eyes narrowed. "I highly doubt that but I'm too tired to care." I turned and headed for his room without another word.

I woke up to find Gakupo sleeping next to me. I sighed and snuggled close to him. He's so warm. Suddenly his arms wrapped around me.

"Good evening my love." Gakupo whispered then kissed my ear playful.

"Ok purple hair." I pushed away and sat up.

Gakupo smiled and sat up behind me. He was…naked. Damn it.

"Do you really sleep naked?" I rubbed my temples.

"When you're sleeping with me." he pulled me against him from behind.

"You know, I've seen men naked before. You don't faze me." I crossed my arms.

"Your face says other wise." Gakupo smiled.

I looked away from him. "I don't know what you're talking about."

Gakupo smiled. "Yes of course you don't." He got up and began to dress. I looked at him. "You're not angry with me are you?"

"I couldn't be angry with you for a second Gumi." Gakupo began to button his shirt.

I stood up and smoothed my skirt. "Your face says other wise."

Gakupo chuckled. "Well played my love." He half smiled. "Do you really want to be a hostess?"

I shrugged. "Much more interesting then having to deal with my mother." I smiled at him. "Do you like being a host?" I leaned against this desk and picked up a picture frame. It was a picture of everyone from everyone dressed in Victorian outfits just like the one from yesterday. Even my mom was in the picture…but I didn't recognize someone.

"It's interesting." Gakupo shrugged and sat down on his bed. "Human women are rather interesting."

"Not much different then me Gakupo." I held the picture frame out to him. "Who's that?"

Gakupo's eyes widened. He snatched the picture from my hands and placed it down on the table with the picture face down on the desk. "Not important."

"Apparently it is." I grabbed a hold of his shirt. "I've decided that if you do enough good things I'll…procreate or whatever you want to put it as. That fair?"

"And what does that have to do with that picture?"

"Tell me who she is and I'll give you 50 points. You get 1000; I'll do exactly what you want."

He chuckled. "Not this time Gumi."

"Then minus 50 points." I grabbed a note pad and wrote it down. "You'll have to get those pointed out." I grabbed a brush off his desk. Iran it through my hair and handed it to him. He smiled and ran the brush through his hair. I held out my hand. "Deal?"

He smiled. "Alright, deal." He leaned in to give me a kiss. I slid out of his way and headed to the door.

"You'll get a kiss when you get 300 points." I walked out the door without a word.

I woke up in my own bed late in the morning. I sighed and took a shower. After that I got dressed in a black skirt and a white blouse with a green jacket that has a short sleeves. Just as I was tying a black ribbon on the collar of my blouse when Gakupo jumped through my window.

"You have a customer." Gakupo said with a smile.

"I have a what?" I yelled.

When we arrived at the host club a man sat alone on a couch. My eyes widened. "Poiyo Matsuda?"

Poiyo looked up and smiled. "There's the star of the hour. I was wondering when you'd show up. He stood up and adjusted his tie.

"You know him?" Gakupo whispered.

"Yeah, he was my boyfriend in high school. We dated for four years. The only reason we broke up was because he moved to Paris to study abroad." I whispered.

Gakupo's eyes narrowed. "Damn."
