Disclaimer: I do not own Brothers Conflict or anything else that it recognizable. I only own my OCs and the plot of this story.
I feel like this turned out kind of OOC. Oh well, I might edit it again later. Oh, I probably won't be able to update during the week so, yeah. There's that. Anyway, enjoy the chapter~ Oh yeah, and there will probably be some more swearing as the story progresses. Can someone tell me if you think the rating should be changed because of it. Thanks. Anyways. Onward to the story~
After two hours of boredom that Kimiko spent browsing through her iPad, looking for any Wi-Fi connection, she was feeling irritated as there was literally nothing else she could do without fear of breaking something, and somewhat pissed because when she was able to actually find a Wi-Fi network, there was a password. Are you shitting me. So, that was where she was when she heard the sound of laughter and footsteps heading towards the front door. She was still staring at her iPad in frustration when the door opened and revealed two males around Ema's age, each with only one eye showing. The one with the black hair and glasses was the first to take notice of the strange girl sitting in their living room.
"Tsubaki…" So the guy with the dyed hair is named Tsubaki. What 'bout the other one.
"Yeah, Azusa?" Well, okay then. "Ah… Oh! Are you Ema-chan's friend? This is the first person that she's let visit!" All it took was a mere look in their eyes to know that their affection wasn't completely familial. The fuck?! The one dubbed Tsubaki bounded forward as if to give Kimiko a hug but she dodged it, staring at Tsubaki with astonishment. Does everyone in Japan attempt to hug you when they first meet you or is this one just weird.
"I'm sorry about- Ema!" Both Kimiko and Tsubaki looked to where Azusa's eyes had strayed to see the aforementioned girl quickly walking toward them.
"Imouto!" Ema said while walking towards them.
"Ema! Wait- Imouto?"Tsubaki and Azusa said together before turning around to look at Kimiko closely.
"...Are you sure this is your sister?" Tsubaki asked with a somewhat confused look on his face, "How come we've never heard of her?"
"What Tsubaki means to say is, why wasn't she at the wedding and why didn't she move in earlier." Well, now you could tell which one was the more sane mature one.
"Kimi-chan did all of her studying in America so she barely has time to visit let alone attend a wedding." When did I agree to being called Kimi-chan of all things?!
"Oh! Well then welcome to your new home Kimi-chan!" Both of them flashed Kimiko a friendly smile as they welcomed her.
"Don't call me Kimi-chan." Kimiko, on the other hand, was not feeling as friendly. "Can you just tell me where I'll be rooming?" Tsubaki and Azusa both looked somewhat surprised at her lack of affection but Ema knew that she had to warm up to people first before being more welcoming in their presence. Even despite the fact that they were still looking somewhat offended, they agreed and led her up to one of the guest rooms.
"I'm sorry about the size, but we don't really know who might be back tonight." Azusa apologized after leading her to a bare and somewhat small room.
"It's okay. This is about the size of my room back at my dorm. I'm going to sleep for a while."
"Okay, I'll come get you when it's time for dinner." Ema smiled kindly at Kimiko before Kimiko had the chance to close the door in their faces. Goddammit Ema, ruining my fun. Ema then attempted to head back to the living room until she was pulled into a tight hug by Tsubaki. "Ah~ Not so fast my dear Imouto. You haven't even given me a welcome back hug~" Ema blushed darkly at his actions and was about to stammer a reply when Azusa smacked the back of Tsubaki's head.
"Again, I'm sorry about his actions." Azusa smiled sweetly at the girl and ignored the fact that his twin was whimpering pitifully on the floor.
"It's okay Azu-nii. I'm fine with it." Ema returned his smile with one of her own as they were finally able to head back to the living room.
"We're home!" A familiar voice declared from the front door.
"Ah! Welcome home Masa-nii!" Ema smiled brightly and proceeded to pick up her pace.
"Oneechan!" A small child with light pink hair ran from to tackle his stepsister in a hug.
"Hi Wataru!" Ema looked down at the child that had his arms wrapped around her waist and smiled fondly at him when he looked up at her.
"Hey, Masa-nii, did you know that Ema has a little sister? She's here right now." Tsubaki said.
"I'm sorry about not telling you before," Ema started, looking down at her feet with a sheepish smile, "I didn't know that she would be coming so soon. I mean, Papa told me that she would be coming over but I thought that it would be later on in the week."
Masaomi offered a kind smile at the embarrassed girl before answering. "It's okay. But she'll have to stay in one of the guest rooms for the mean time. Everyone is coming home to celebrate Futo's new song."
"Eh?" Wataru asked looking slightly confused, "I'm going to have a new Oneechan?!"
"Yeah, I'm sure you'll love her." Masaomi answered.
"But I don't want another Oneechan! We already have one!" Wataru looked to be on the verge of throwing a fit.
"Wataru," Ema murmured, kneeling down to be on eye level with him, "Kimiko is very nice, she may seem kind of rough around the edges but I'm sure that you're going to love her. Can you try to get along with her? For me?" Wataru still seemed a little reluctant but like his brothers, he would do practically anything his older sister asked him to.
"Okay, I'll try Oneechan. Should I also call Kimiko Oneechan?" Wataru asked.
"No, she's lived in America for a very long time and probably isn't very comfortable being addressed by a title." The trio that had witnessed Kimiko's reaction to the nickname only moments before all grimaced at the memory. " Just call her Kimiko or Big Sis." Ema smiled widely, happy that her new family was going to try to get along with her little sister. I just hope that Kimiko tries to get along with them.
