015 - Storm

Once in a while, he wondered what ever happened to that man. Gale Glory.

The door opened just as thunder roared overhead, and Shuda stepped into his home, soaking wet. 'Finally,' he thought. 'Warmth.' With a sigh, he began to remove his coat, dripping water all over the entranceway.

Haru hopped up from his place on the couch and ran to greet him. Flinging his arms around Shuda's neck, the young boy leaned up for a kiss. Shuda gave it, grinning. "Okaeri!" the fifteen year old chirped.

"Tadaima," Shuda smirked, hanging his wet coat on the hanger and looping an arm around Haru's waist. "Where's Cat?"

"Kitchen!"

"Ara.. you're back already?"

Shuda looked up to see his other lover, leaning against the entrance to the kitchen, looking at him with a tender look in her eyes. Shuda smiled back, fetchingly. Cattleya stepped forward, leaning up to give him a kiss. Shuda returned the greeting, running his tongue over her lips. Then she drew back and retreated into the kitchen, ruffling her brother's hair as she went.

"Dinner will be ready in a few minutes."

"Thanks."

He watched her as she left, following the sway of her hips with his eyes.

"How was work?"

Shuda turned his attention to the fifteen year old still attached to his person. He smiled. "Great." He'd razed a few cities, set up a few bases of operations. The Demon Card usual. King gave a few orders, Reina was annoying. He leaned down to kiss Haru on the forehead.

"How were you?" he asked, moving towards the couch.

"We were okay," Haru chirped back, following. "Nothing much happened, like usual."

They settled on the sofa, Shuda relaxing with a sigh. "Nothing ever happens," Haru remarked, slipping onto the sofa behind him. His hands came up to rest on the red-headed man's shoulders, slowly beginning to massage the stiff muscles. Shuda moaned softly.

"...That so?"

Of course Garage Island was still peaceful. No dark organization would dare attack the 'abode' of one of Demon Card's top generals. It was the same reason Ribeyla had been left intact; an Oracion Seis member liked to go there. Their retreats were off-limits.

"Yep." There was a hint of boredom in the boy's tone.

Reaching up and grasping the boy's collar, Shuda tugged Haru over his shoulder and into his lap. "Whoa!" "Is that so bad?" Shuda grinned wolfishly. Haru looked up into Shuda's eyes, a little apprehensively.

"Dinner!"

Shuda looked over his shoulder at Cattleya's call. "C'mon, kid," he said, tugging Haru up with him as he got off the couch. They talked as usual around the table, Shuda telling them stuff about the job they thought he did, and Haru and Cattleya telling him about the minor going-ons around the island. The food was delicious.

Later, as Haru helped Cattleya wash up, Shuda relaxed, a pleased smile tugging at the corner of his lips. He really had it all.

Red eyes watched the siblings at the sink as they cleaned up. Cattleya was gentle, and kind. Smart, responsible... strong. She was the perfect woman. Beside her, Haru giggled and splashed some water at his sister. Cattleya lightly scolded him, mostly amused. It was astounding, Shuda thought, just how much that boy resembled his father. The same hair, the same enthusiasm. That vibrancy, filled with life.

Once in a while, he wondered what ever happened to that man. Gale Glory. His rival.

He smirked to himself.

Oh, if that man ever came back now... If he were ever to return.. How he would scream, knowing that Demon Card held what remained of his family in its hands. More specifically, in Shuda's hands. Very, very literally.

Later that night, with the pair curled up against him, Shuda looked into the darkness and smiled. He ran his fingers down Cattleya's back and through Haru's hair. They were his now.

"Oh, Gale... Gale," he chuckled in the dark.
