*Christmas Eve.*
The whole house was decorated with decorations of all sorts. Reefs, bows, mistletoe, bulbs, angels, Santa's, reindeer, the whole nine yards.
"Kyoya, does your family always go this far with the decorations?" I whispered, leaning close to him.
"No, Father did this for you, because you're here."
"He didn't have to, even my house isn't this decorated for Christmas." I watch as six large men carry in a tree. A good ten foot tree. A trail of pine needles fall on the floor as they walk through the house. "How is that thing going to get decorated?"
"Well I assume the maids will do it."
I hummed and looked out a nearby window, still snowing, and the perfect time to go outside. It had been snowing for more or less six days.
I walk out into the snow, barefoot and with out a jacket, stupid I know but I really don't care. The cold snow turns my feet red and sticks to them. Instantly my toes go numb and eventually so does both of my feet entirely. I suppose it also wasn't a smart idea to go outside with shorts and a thin shirt on either. Even thou my body is getting numb, I enjoy being outside in the cold.
"Tori! Get inside at once!" I winced as Kyoya yelled from the doorway.
"No I like it out here!" I yell back as I start sitting down, facing Kyoya.
"Look at you! You're turning into a smurf! Come inside!" I look at my arms and legs. Yes I actually was turning blue, but needless to say, I didn't care I love the snow.
"No!" I start making a snowball, which was hard to do with numb fingers and all.
"Fine then I'll come get you then." Kyoya started walking towards me and when he got close enough I tried throwing the snowball at him. But it failed, throwing was hard to do when your arm was like a noodle. You know how your arm gets when you lay on it for too long and your whole arm is numb and you can't move it. Yep that's exactly what mine was like, actually it was my whole body that was like that. I was one giant noodle.
"You missed." He mocked and then tried pulling me to my feet. It failed, my whole body was numb all the way down to my bones. Now I get where the people got the saying 'you're frozen to the bone' from. And it Makes sense too, I was literally frozen to the bone. With that being said, I fell back into the snow.
"Shit Tori we need to get you inside." Kyoya started panicking.
"Why?" I ask, obviously clueless to what he was getting at.
"Why? Why?!" Kyoya was getting pissed off. "Think of the twins! If you're out here any longer then you could kill them!" My eyes went wide when I realized what he said was true.
"Shit." I moved every limb at once trying to get them to function but it didn't work. "Shit. Kyoya I can't get up. I'm all numb."
"Dumbass." Kyoya mumbled barely audible. He carefully picked me up and hurriedly put me in front of the fire place. "Go get 4 or 5 blankets!"
I watched as Kyoya ordered the maids around as my body was tingling. I didn't want to be by the fireplace, and I didn't want to be warm. It was rare that I was allowed to be cold and I didn't even think of my children. It never crossed my mind that the cold might kill them. Suddenly a thick layer of blankets draped around my shoulders. I look up and it's Kyoya.
"What were you thinking?" He was trying to hide his anger but it showed considerably. "No, don't answer that, you weren't thinking."
"Yep, you're right. I wasn't thinking." My voice dripped with sarcasm. "Then again it never occurred to me that the cold might hurt me, or my children." I wrap the blankets tighter around me and stand up. I stand tall, even with wobbly legs, and look Kyoya in the eye. He looked at me like I was lying, and that irked me. "So you don't believe me?"
"No I don't, anyone with common sense would know what the cold could do." Kyoya crossed his arms.
"Do you honestly think that I would go outside if I had known! I may not be as smart as you but I'm not stupid!" I walk away and sit on a nearby couch, my back facing him. I rub my belly for a moment then call for the maid. "Savannah?"
"Yes mistress?"
"It's Tori."
"Yes mistress Tori?"
"It's just Tori. Anyway, can you make me a really big cup of coffee? I want the biggest cup you've got."
"Yes, I will get to it right away." The maid left to make the coffee and I laid on the couch still with my back facing Kyoya. A hearty laugh was heard from near the door.
"Awe, a young couples first fight. And on Christmas Eve? That's unheard of." I look towards the door and Father is standing there.
"It's not a fight Father, it's a quarrel." I simply say as I lay back down.
"Ah yes, a lovers quarrel." He looks at Kyoya. "What did you do?"
"What did I do?" Kyoya huffed and scoffed. "I didn't do anything, she's the one who went outside with no shoes on, no jacket or pants, she didn't have anything to keep her from freezing and yet she goes outside!"
"Yes but you yelled at me, called me stupid and a liar!" I turned over and yelled at Kyoya.
"I didn't call you stupid!"
"Yes you did! You didn't say it out loud but it was implied!" Savanna then walks in with a tray of coffee and creamer. "Oh thank you Savanna, set it on the table."
I fixed my coffee as I liked it while Kyoya was arguing with me, but I just ignored him. Everything that came out of his mouth sounded like the teacher from Charlie Brown. I sat there drinking my coffee, fooling Kyoya by making him think I was listening but of course I wasn't.
"Savanna, can you come with me?"
"Yes mistress."
I got up and walked to the door, making Kyoya's anger rise up. "Where do you think you're going?" Kyoya yelled.
I just kept walking till I got to his room and in there I started putting on warm clothes. Savanna and I walked back down stairs and Kyoya was standing there waiting. I kiss him for a moment and then walk towards the door.
"Come lets go Savanna." I look towards her and she already has her coat on.
"Yes mistress." She followed me outside as we walked to the garage. "Can you drive mistress?"
"Yes, can you?" Savanna looked down in shame. Well apparently she can't. "Which car would you like to take?"
"The suburban. We need one that will be good in the snow." I grabbed the keys from the hook by the door we entered through.
Pretty soon we were in the car and on our way to my destined location.
"Mistress if I may ask, where are we going?" Savanna was sitting in the passenger seat next to me.
"We are just going to my house for a few moments. Speaking of which, I need to call a few people." I pull out my phone and start dialing.
"Hello? Father?"
"Where did you go? Kyoya's worried sick!"
"Don't worry about me, I'm going to my house to pick up a few things. But don't tell Kyoya. I want him to worry."
"Ah, I see, teaching him a lesson. Alright your secret is safe with me."
"Thank you."
I hung up and called Lesly.
"Hey I'm going to be there in a few moments I need you to bring me out a few things.
"Um ok, what do you need?"
"Well I want you to bring me a few movies. Rush hour 2, Band Slam, and Veggie Tales."
"Ok I'll be waiting."
"Alright see you in a few."
I close my phone and put it back in my pocket. Soon enough we arrive at my house. Parking the car two house away from my own, Savanna and I walk to the side of the house. At the first window on the right, I knock and Lesly answers. She gives me the 'one moment'.
"Come Savanna." She follows me to the other side of the house where Lesly was standing.
"Here's the movies. Whose that?" Lesly asked looking at Savanna. "Where's Kyoya?"
"Kyoya and I got into a fight." I state simply.
"What?! What happened?! Actually come inside and tell me, it's cold out here." Lesly takes my hand into her ice cold one.
"But I can't go in there, they kicked me out."
"Oh boo, they miss you and would be happy to see you home" Lesly grabbed my hand once more and pulled me inside with Savanna in tow.
She takes me to the couch and we all sit down. "Tell me what happened."
"Well he yelled at me, called me stupid and a liar."
Lesly looked confused. "Care to elaborate? I don't think he would yell at you for no reason."
I sit there and tell Lesly everything and she nods her head as I talk.
"Wow, well it is partially your fault too. I mean you did go outside without a jacket or pants on."
"Whatever." Suddenly my phone starts vibrating, non-stop. I pull it out and it's Kyoya. He sent me 15 texts and I had 7 missed calls. "Look I bet he's worried."
"What did he send you?" I look at the messages and sure enough he had sent texts saying that he's worried about me and wants to know where I'm at.
"Yeah he's worried, well I better get going." I stand up and Savanna does the same. "I'll see you later." I hug Lesly and take my leave before any of my other sisters realize that I'm here.
::time skip::
I walked through the front door and immediately arms rap around me. "Where have you been, I was so worried."
"Why does it matter, you're mad at me." Kyoya looks me in the eyes with a sad look on his face.
"You're right, I am mad at you but, but, I don't care. You were right, I shouldn't have yelled at you but you did senseless things." He kisses my forehead and then notices the movies in my hand. "You went home didn't you?"
I just walk past him and straight to our room with him in tow. "Are you going to join me?" I ask putting in VeggieTales.
"Sure." Kyoya grabs the blanket off the bed and takes it to the couch where I'm sitting. Quickly I text Lesly telling her what's going on now and then text Savanna asking her to bring me some fresh coffee.
Pretty soon the movie starts and Kyoya gives me a look. "What?" He just nods his head and holds me close. Right before my favorite song in the movie comes on Savanna brings me my coffee. And right after I take a drink and set it down then my song comes on and I sing along to it.
"knock knock
who's there?
just a pretty little apple
with some time to spare
Open up!
Apple who?
a harmless little cutie
with her eye on you
Open up that door and let me in
Don't ya worry 'bout those hairs
on your chinny chin chin
I'm not preachin' moderation
Knock knock!
what's your name?
Temptation
UH OH
Temptation
Look out!
TEMPTATION!"
"You're silly." Kyoya says as he smiles at me.
"This is one of my favorite songs." I cuddle to his chest and that's how we stayed for the rest of the movie. "I'm going to bed-" a knock at the door. Opening the door I see three idiots.
"Tori who's here?" The sound of shuffling and foot steps followed his question. "What are you doing here?"
I wave my hand signaling a good bye and continue off to bed. I lay in the cold bed trying to fall asleep but I just couldn't. Those three idiots that showed up randomly, wouldn't keep their voices down. "Can you keep it down?"
Still they continue to be loud. "Can you keep it down?!" Then instant silence. "Thank you!" I fall asleep after a few moments and what seems like hours I wake up again but god forbid I wake up natural. No apparently the three idiots where still there and they were loud again. Which pissed me off for two reasons. 1) I was woken up from my sleep and 2) I was woken up because of people being loud.
"Will you guys shut up! If you wake Tori up she will be pissed!" Kyoya whisper yelled.
"To late!" I yell through gritted teeth while storming towards the loud mouths, who end up hiding behind Kyoya. As I walk closer, Kyoya moves out of my way, leaving them exposed. I grab Tamaki's collar in one hand and the twins collars in the other. "Don't you have common curtesy? It's not nice to wake people up, especially pregnant ones!" I let go of their collars then punch Tamaki in the stomach then Kaoru and with a swift turn I hit Hikaru. Then I turn away from them. "Maybe that will teach you not to wake me up! Next time you do so it'll be more than a hit to the gut. I don't mind you being here but keep it down." I walk back towards my bed but stop at Kyoya and he flinches when I look at him with tired eyes. I kiss him and continue to walk towards the bed.
"Night." I say crawling into bed and I slept soundlessly and uninterrupted for the rest of the night.
