Chapter 22: He sucks at English...? Hah!
The first day in Mie began as Gakupo took me for a tour around the town. He bought all kinds of stuff for me, even though I insisted that he shouldn't spend so much money on me, even if he was rich. We decided that we would tell his parents about our relationship at dinner, and soon we were already sitting in the table, ready to eat the ise-ebi the servants had made.
As we started eating, Gakupo cleared his throat and said: "There's something I'd like to tell."
"What is it, son?" his father asked.
"Me and Kaito are together", Gakupo announced. I blushed, his mother dropped the utensils from her hands and his father stared at his son in mix of anger, confusion, surprise and disappointment.
"How long?" his father asked.
"Three weeks", Gakupo answered. For a moment, everyone was silent and his and his father's staring competition continued. Then his mother fortunately broke the silence by saying: "Well... I'm happy for you two. You probably want to sleep in the same room?"
"Yes, thank you", Gakupo replied.
"Mark my word, if there is any suspicious white stuff in the house or if we hear any weird noises from the room, you'll sleep outside", his father warned. I blushed furiously. We hadn't even gone that far yet!
Yet... We would go that far, if we didn't break up before that (which I doubted) I had never had sex before in my life, and hadn't even touched another man's dick. I was a complete virgin, and I had no fucking idea what I was supposed to do when the time would come.
"Uh, father... We haven't done that yet", Gakupo said, noticing my distress.
"You've been together for three weeks and you still haven't done it? That's fucked up!" his father said. Now I knew where Gakupo had inherited his personality from, even if his looks were from his mother.
"This topic is a bit awkward..." I commented awkwardly.
"That is true... So, are you planning to move in together?" Mrs. Kamui asked, trying to change the topic.
"We haven't thought about it yet. We still haven't gone that far, we've just been on dates, kissed and such", Gakupo explained and smiled softly.
Moving in together... Again, if we wouldn't break up before that, we'd do it. Move in together. Would I every day cook dinner, welcome Gakupo home from work and... Immediately something flashed in my mind, making me blush. The oh-so-stereotypical words "Would you want the dinner, the bath, or... me?" No way in hell I'd ever say that! Then again, if we did go so far... Oh, God, why was I even thinking about this?!
"Oh, I understand. Are you planning to spend the Christmas together?" his mother asked.
Christmas, another thing. Christmas was the time of lovers, right? Spending Christmas with Gakupo... Getting him a present, cuddling with him in front of a fireplace in cold, dark evening. Would I give him a handmade present, or would I buy something... uh, something people usually buy for their boyfriends?
"That would be rather nice, actually. Wouldn't it, Kaito?" Gakupo admitted thoughtfully. It would be nice, but...
"I don't know. I've never spent a Christmas away from my family. And... Well, you know our situation", I answered. That's right. We hadn't spent a normal Christmas in years because mom had been in hospital so she hadn't been home, and now that Akaito's memory had almost completely been swiped away, I really wanted to spend the Christmas with my family, and of course, my cousins.
"Oh. Of course", Gakupo said, and even though he tried hiding it, I heard the disappointed tone in his voice.
"Well, that's a shame... Gakupo, after the dinner you should take Kaito-kun for a date. You could spend some time together", his mother suggested sweetly. I was surprised how calmly they had taken this, considering they were such a wealthy samurai-family. Gakupo's mother acted so sweet, and his father... Well, he'd just been disappointed because we hadn't had sex yet. YET. How does that word keep appearing?
"That's a good idea, isn't it Kaito? What would you like to do?" Gakupo asked, smiling at me charmingly. I smiled too and replied: "I'm fine with anything."
"There's a carnival in the town in the evening. Wouldn't that be fun?" his mother said. We decided we would go there, and again, Gakupo would pay for everything.
After the dinner, we headed to the carnival and it was amazing. There were different kind of games everywhere, a few things like carousels and a ferris wheel, and of course, there were all kinds of places those sold sweets.
Gakupo won me a huge bear from some game and bought me a cotton candy. We rode a rollercoaster - and since I'd just eaten cotton candy, I almost threw up - and for the end of the evening, we went to the ferris wheel.
When we came back to Gakupo's house, it was already dark outside and I was really tired. We went straight to our shared room and I changed to my pajamas - he slept in just boxers.
The next thing I realized that we were kissing in the bed, his tongue slipping into my mouth and his hand on my thigh. My eyes were closed and my arms wrapped tightly around him, pulling him deeper into the kiss. I moaned against his lips as he pressed harder against my body.
"Gakupo..." I mumbled. He separated from me, leaving me pant slightly and he asked: "What is it?"
"I'm tired... I want to sleep", I explained sleepily. He chuckled and lay down next to me, wrapping his arms around my waist and burying his face into my neck. With that, I fell asleep quickly and had a dream that included me and Gakupo buying apartment at Christmas and having sex in front of the fireplace. For some reason, his and mine families were watching us and we didn't even mind. It was a very, very weird dream.
The next morning was Saturday, my second day in Mie. Gakupo woke me up by kissing me and muttering: "Time to wake up, cutie."
I had no idea why he called me cutie, but whatever. We went for breakfast, and then he showed me some tourist sights of Ise. As we started walking away from the Ise Grand Shrine, it started snowing.
"It's snowing..." I muttered and stared at the small, white flakes floating down from the sky. He smiled, looked at the flakes too and wrapped his arm around me to keep me warm. It was quite cold, after all.
"Snow truly is beautiful. It's such a shame it melts so soon", Gakupo stated. I snorted; he sounded like some kind of poet. I pointed this out, and he just ruffled my hair and said: "Poetry is a very respected category in art, even if it isn't that respected nowdays."
"Yeah, but it sounds so lame!" I said bluntly.
"You know, you shouldn't say those kind of things in the birth-place of Matsuo Basho", Gakupo pointed out wisely. Luckily he didn't hear me as I muttered: "It's not like he hears me or anything... The guy's dead..."
"Anyway, you wanna eat dinner in some restaurant or what?" he asked.
"Uh, Gakupo... It's not even dinnertime yet..." I said.
"I know, but I gotta tell my parents if we're gonna eat out, so that the servants won't make any extra food", Gakupo explained. I pondered about my answer for a while, and figured I wouldn't want yesterday's dinner to repeat, so I answered: "I'd like to eat in a restaurant."
"Okay, good. So, where do you wanna go next?" he asked.
"Etoo... How about we just wander around? There's nothing else to do anyway", I replied, and rest of the day we just wandered around in the town of Ise. We visited several parks, which were absolutely beautiful, and we even went to a bookstore to get something for me to read for the train-ride back to home. We'd spent now a couple of hours, and we were passing some random school.
"Hm? This is my old school..." Gakupo muttered.
"You went to a private school?" I asked. Seriously, the school was huge and it probably included dormitories. It looked like it was straight from Ouran High School Host Club! (No... I do not watch that anime =.='')
"Yeah. I wonder if I should visit there, now that I'm here in Mie..." he wondered thoughtfully.
"Can you really just visit your old school like that?" I asked suspiciously. He chuckled and answered: "The old students of this school visit there all the time! Well, I visited there only right after graduating, but still."
"But it's weekend, isn't it?" I pointed out.
"Most of the students and teachers live in the dormitories, and the school itself is always open so that the students can study in the library and so forth. It isn't a problem to keep it open since the security otherwise is very strict", Gakupo explained. And so we went inside the school. I felt really awkward walking there with Gakupo, but the few people in the hallways didn't seem bothered, and so didn't Gakupo. We went to one particular class, where a teacher was sitting behind his desk and doing paper-work.
"Hi, sensei", Gakupo greeted and grinned playfully. The teacher lifted his gaze, seeing his former student and said: "Kamui-kun! Finally you bothered coming!"
"Sorry, sensei, I've been busy", Gakupo apologized, but the smile didn't leave his lips. I just stared at my own feet and stayed slightly behind Gakupo.
"Yes, I've heard you became a teacher. It's hard to believe such an arrogant brat obtained a job like that." The teacher smiled too now, and even laughed a bit.
"I guess I was a bad boy, then", Gakupo said and smirked.
"And who is this?" the teacher asked as he realized I was standing there.
"Oh, this is my boyfriend, Kaito", Gakupo answered and pushed me a bit forward. I bowed and stuttered: "U- Uh... Nice to meet you..."
"Kamui-kun... You are not dating a student, are you?" the teacher asked suspiciously. I flushed deep red and even Gakupo's cheeks had a pinkish shade on them. He laughed nervously and said: "So you noticed..."
"Oh, Kamui-kun... Please don't tell me you accepted the job as a teacher just to molest the students?" The teacher had now stood up and was leaning against his desk, his arms folded and his look troubled.
"Of course not! How could you say those kinds of things about me, oh the teacher I so highly respect!" It was obvious that Gakupo was joking and that the teacher could easily say those kinds of things about him.
"Hmph. Kaito-kun, did he force you to this relationship?" the teacher asked bluntly. Gakupo looked like he was hit by a frying-pan on his face and was wordless. I blushed and muttered: "U- Um... You could say that, but I really do love him..."
"What do you mean 'you could say that?'" Gakupo asked 'innocently.'
"Your strategies fooled me", I said bitterly.
"Kamui-kun hasn't changed then, after all", the teacher sighed. "Thank God you didn't come work here, I don't need the stress caused by you anymore..."
"I wasn't that bad!" Gakupo whined.
"Oh, you were... Do you have any idea who caused all these grey strands of hair?" the teacher asked and pointed at his hair - which had a lot of grey in it.
"Um... Megurine-chan?" Gakupo guessed.
"Pfft, Megurine was one of the politest and the most charming student of mine. She didn't even compare to you!" the teacher answered. I was now getting quite curious of Gakupo's childhood. I could imagine purple-haired boy running around the hallways of the fancy school as the teachers yelled at him and he just laughed. I just couldn't imagine him to be Gakupo.
"Hey! She did one prank on her freshman-year!" Gakupo corrected.
"That was because you and the rest of your little gang forced her to", the teacher said. Gang?
"Aw, c'mon, sensei! I finally visited here, and only thing you do is that you scold me? That's unfair!" Gakupo complained like a little kid, making me giggle.
"I guess you were quite smart in most of the subjects... Except for English", the teacher said. Gakupo froze and muttered: "Don't say that in front of my boyfriend!"
Unfortunately, I was already laughing my ass off and as I calmed down a little, I said between all that panting: "You... sucked at... English? That's so... hilarious!"
It didn't take long until we left. He was very embarrassed and I was still catching up my breath, still mocking him for being a teacher but not good at English.
"It was years ago! Besides, you suck in pretty much all subjects, so you have no right to laugh!" he said and his face was tomato-red. Hey, you can't blame me! I finally found a thing he was not good at, and I was not giving up so easily!
"Just shut up already..."
A/N
So, I've been reading this fic through a lot lately, and... in the beginning, I gotta admit... it pretty much sucks. There are so many mistakes and stuff, but I don't really have time to fix them just yet. When I'm finished with this story, I promise I'm fixing them.
Another thing I noticed was that I've been using the names of the GazettE members A LOT in this fic. Kaito's cat is Kai. Then there's that friend of Meito's (chapters 9-10) called Akira (Reita) and then there's Yuu (Aoi) who actually hasn't been appearing in this fic lately, so he'll do a comeback soon. Wait for it... And he won't be molesting Kaito, because... HE'S NOT SINGLE! I've been planning this a lot... hehehe :3
And then there's a THIRD thing I've noticed while reading these chapters. Well, I didn't 'notice' it since one of the reasons I read the fic through is that. So, I needed to know what time exactly it is in this fic at the moment, and I ended up counting it's about halfway of November, a bit over. So that means I'll be writing something Christmasy in summer -.-' (Speaking of summer, here in Finland the winter was REALLY cold and I almost froze to death, but now I'm pretty much melting because of the heat... Why cant the weather be normal just for once?! T.T)
Aaaaand... That's pretty much it for this chapter. Because of summer, there will be updates more often now since I'll have more time writing. Isn't that nice? ^^
See ya in da next chapter~!
