Yuuki's Core Memories

Two Years Ago

Ethan was still in his coma, after he was hit by the speeding car, while trying to save Jason, but he didn't make it. Mars was still on life support, in his hospital bed.

Yuuki, his younger sister walked in, with fresh cut yellow roses, and replace the old ones, with the fresh ones. She pulled up a chair behind her, before sitting next to him, and holding his hand.

"Hi, brother, it's me Yuuki." She greeted him. "I see that you're still sleeping, even though you can here me." Yuuki remove her hand, from his. "Well, I have some news, I wanted to tell you something, but Ryan think this can wait, until you're awake."

Yuuki places two of the hands on her stomach. "I'm going to be a mother. Ryan and I were not inspecting this, but it's going to happen, in seven months. Plus, I need you to be there with me, even though we lost Jason, maybe your niece or nephew can fill your heart, with love." She pulls out a small ultrasound picture, that has her name at the top, and the baby was growing in the picture. "I'll leave this for you, until you wake up, I'll be happy and your niece or nephew will be too." She places the picture, next to the flower vase before she left.

Seven Months Later

"I'm so proud of you, Yuuki." Ryan kissed her forehead. "Our daughter's finally here and I can't wait to see her."

"Neither can I." Yuuki held onto Ryan's hand. "I'm so glad that I've decided to take drugs, because that hurt like hell." Ryan chuckled at Yuuki's response.

The nurse walked in, holding a small pink blanket, that holds, Yuuki and Ryan's baby girl. "I have a very special princess, who's ready to see her mommy and daddy."

Ryan stands up, held out his arms, as the nurse, helps him, cradle the baby. The small baby, had on a small hat, with a bow on the side, while sucking on a pacifier. "Hi, little one." Ryan cooed softly. "I'm your Daddy." He looked over at Yuuki, who was smiling at the loving scene of father and daughter bonding. "She's so precious, Yuuki." Ryan started to give the baby to her, as the baby started to open her eyes, noticed her mother's loving smile.

"Hi, baby girl." Yuuki greeted, before kissing her cheek. "It's so nice to meet you. You look just like me." The baby responds by making soft cooing noises. "Oh, Ryan, what should we name her?"

Ryan sat down, and scooted his chair, closer to Yuuki's side. "Well, there is this name that's been going on inside my head for a while now."

"And?"

"I was thinking...Kanon."

"Kanon? Is that Japanese?"

Ryan nodded "Yes, it is, (Ka) means flower or blossom and (Non) means sound."

"Flower or blossom sound?" Yuuki looked down at her baby. "Kanon. Kanon Chiba. I love it."

"Our little Kanon Chiba, is born into our world."

Six Months Later

Yuuki was taking a day off of work, at the police station, and stay at home, so she can spend more time with Kanon. Ryan was already at work, but he'll be home, around sometime in the evening.

Yuuki was watching TV, as Kanon was asleep in the crib, but Yuuki has the baby monitor, just in case, she needed anything. Someone was knocking at the front door, Yuuki walked to the door, looked through the peephole, it was Carter Blake.

She opened it, as she smiled. "Hi, Lieutenant. How can I help you?"

"Uh, Yuuki, I'm afraid I have something to tell you, and it's about Ryan."

"Where's my husband?"

"Can I come in?" Yuuki let him, as he walked in the living room, and sat down. Yuuki sat down, next to him, but kept her distance.

"OK, when me and your husband, were on break. We had an argument, about the Origami Killer case, until it turn into a fight in the police station. He stormed out of the station, until everybody heard a shooting gun, and Ryan cried out in pain." Yuuki was wide-eyed, when heard what happened to her husband. " I ran outside, he was on the ground, holding on to his left side of his chest, and he told me to tell you that he loves you and Kanon, so much…I'm sorry, Yuuki, but Ryan...is gone."

Yuuki fell onto the carpet floor, crying, as she heard the her husband of five years, was gone, forever. Blake comfort her, as she crying, holding her in his arms.

"What?"

"What was all of that?"

"Was those my memories...in the past two years?"

Yuuki was in complete darkness, until she noticed a light, walking up to her. It was an angel of light. It was her husband of five years, Ryan Chiba.

"Ryan?"

"My beloved and suffering, Yuuki. It's been so long, since I've seen your smiling face."

Yuuki walked up to him, and tried to hugged him, but she went through him.

"You were suffering for a long time and I'm here to take you with me."

Ryan held out his hand, Yuuki was about to take his hand, until she heard another voice, calling for her.

"Yuuki!"

"Norman?" Yuuki called out.

"You can't just leave me, your daughter, and your brother. Come on, wake up!"

"Yuuki, don't listen to him. You belong with me, not that drug addict."

"Yuuki, please wake up. Don't leave me!" Norman cried, until she heard him crying. "I love you so much, Yuuki Mars."

"Norman...is this true?"

"Yuuki, come with me, if you want to be free and you'll get to see Jason and your parents, again."

Yuuki turned around and noticed a door, made of light shining. It was that door, that leads back into her body, and back to reality. She turned to face Ryan, as she walked up to him.

"Do you still love me?"

"I...I wanna move on, Ryan…Norman is in my heart now, and I love him."

"I see." Ryan kissed her forehead, before Yuuki walked away to door of the light, as she walked through it, she said to Ryan.

"I'll never forget you, Ryan Chiba."

Back To Life, Back To Reality

Norman was holding onto Yuuki's body, she was still covered in the white towel, as he cried, waiting for her response.

Yuuki started coughing up, shower water, until she started crying, in Norman's arms. "I'm…sorry!" She cried.

"Yuuki?" Norman let her go, as she noticed her brown eyes, filled with tears. "Yuuki! Oh, Yuuki." Yuuki tries to hugged him, but she was too weak and her wrists still hurt, due to the bleeding cuts.

"Norman, I'm so SORRY!" Yuuki cried, as Norman held onto her, kissed her forehead. Both of them were sharing tears together as a loving couple. Yuuki made the right decision on staying alive, instead of leaving people that she love. Ethan, Shaun, Sara, especially, Kanon and Norman, who loved her.

After the suicide attempt, Norman carried his precious Yuuki, bridal style, onto her the bed, as she kept her eyes, locked on him. He went into the bathroom, to search for some medical supplies for her wrists. Leaving the bathroom, he sat down, next to her, with the medical supplies, on her nightstand, ready to heal her. "It's OK, Yuuki." Norman said, with comforting words. "I know you didn't mean to hurt yourself."

He press down on her wrists, as the blood, stay on the bandages. The sergeant mother was whining in pain, as the profiler was dressing her wounds. "OK, that's the best I can do." He touched her cheek. "Are you OK, now?"

"I'm...I'm tired, but I need to take my pills."

"Your pills?" Norman asked. "What pills?"

"The doctor prescribed me pills for my depression. I left them somewhere, downstairs…" Yuuki tries to stand, but Norman stopped her.

"Don't worry, I'll look downstairs for them, while you stay up here. I'll keep an eye on Kanon, while searching for clues." Norman said, pulling out his ARI glasses and glove.

"Don't overuse it, again." Yuuki told him.

Norman kissed her forehead, before getting off the bed. "Stay in this room, and I'll take this away from you." He held up the box cutter knife.

After when Norman left, Yuuki felt uncomfortable, just wearing a white towel, so she decided to switch into her night clothes. She decided to wear a black oversized off the shoulder long sleeve shirt, blazing red panties and bra, and sky blue and white pajamas shorts. As she got dressed, she noticed that something was missing…

Norman was downstairs, searching for clues with his ARI. He had found Yuuki's prescribed pills, under the coffee table. "Zoloft. These are one of the common depression pills. It has Yuuki's prints and Kanon's drool, on them. Thank God it's child proof."

"Norman!" He hear his name being called, as he turned to face the stairs. Yuuki, dressed in her pajamas, with her chocolate brown long locks was down, climbing down the stairs, in a hurry.

"Yuuki, you're supposed to be in bed."

"I know, but, something's missing."

"What's missing?" Norman asked.

"Upstairs in the closet, there's a small safe, that's hidden, under my clothes. It's open, and my gun was missing."

Norman ran up the stairs, as Yuuki followed her into her bedroom, to find the closet, already open by, Yuuki and the safe was wide open. "When did you get a gun for yourself and what was it?"

"The gun isn't under my name, is under Ryan's." Yuuki explained. "It was a black...semi auto caliber gun."

Norman uses his ARI, to find any new evidence, nothing new was found, but only Yuuki and Ryan's fingerprints. Inside the safe was Kanon's birth certificate, Ryan's gold watch, he got for Lieutenant, and a few thousand stacks of cash. He asked about the cash, Yuuki explain to him, that Ryan came from a rich family, but his father, doesn't like her.

The profiler taken off his ARI, and started explained what happened, earlier. "Yuuki, I believe the Origami Killer attacked Sara and stolen Ryan's gun."

"What?! He stalking me too?!" Yuuki yelled. "How did you know?"

"There was orchid pheromones in the living room and I've also found this on top of the fireplace." He pulled out an origami dog, Yuuki grabbed it, and stomped it onto the floor.

"I hate that killer...if I ever meet the killer…I'M GONNA BEAT THE FUCK OUT OF HIM!" Yuuki promise, before she felt tired, lose her balance, and Norman catch her. He pick her up, bridal style, and places her onto the bed, once more.

"You need some sleep, in order for you to feel better."

"OK," Yuuki said, before closing her eyes. "I love you, Norman."

Norman smiled at his sleeping beauty, before kissing her cheek. "I love you, too, Yuuki."

As Norman cleaned up the house and watched over Kanon, he brought Yuuki food and also orange juice to make her feel better. Once she felt better, and was regaining her color back, she was able to move around the house, instead of being in bed, all day. Even though Yuuki's a fast person, to recover, he still kept an eye on her. Norman was suffering from the withdrawal of the triptocaine, but Yuuki was always there by his side, when he's under the shower, with his suit on.

Yuuki walked into the living room, to find him, laying on the white carpet floor, lifting Kanon, up in the air, smiling and giggling. "Hey?"

Norman looked over at Yuuki, "OK, go play by yourself now." He walked over to the playpen and places her inside. "Bye-bye." he waved at her, before walking to Yuuki, and grabbed his overcoat.

"Where are you going?" Yuuki asked.

"I'm heading over to the police station for a bit, and later I'm going to the Blue Lagoon, to ask Paco, some questions."

"Eww!" Yuuki said, disgusted. "I hate him. He even tried to touch me, before Ryan, punches him in the nose."

"Anything else you want me to know?" Norman asked.

"Paco Mendez isn't a saint. You should check out his criminal record, when you get there." Yuuki touched his scarred cheek, as he relaxed against her soft touch, and she gave a quick peck on his lips. "Be care-" Norman wrapped his arms, around her, and gave her a passionate kiss. Getting bored kissing her lips, he started kissing the side of the neck, a couple times, before letting go.

Yuuki and Norman looked at each other, before they started blushing. "Can I stay here overnight with you, again?"

"Why, yes you may, Mr. Profiler." Yuuki kissed him, once more, before letting him go. Norman grabbed Yuuki's fusion car keys, before leaving the house.

Friday

Day Four

12:01 pm

Still At Yuuki's House

It was late at night, somewhere, around twelve. Yuuki was still worried about Norman and Ethan, at the same time. She texted Norman asking where the hell he is. Plus, after when Norman left her alone, once again, she started picking up her iPhone, and called Ethan's phone, as well. She kept picking up his voicemail, but she left two messages, for him to know, why she's calling him.

Yuuki heard the front door, opening, Norman has returned from the Blue Lagoon. He was limping around, while he walked. She got up off the couch, and walked towards him. He held out his arms, as she ran into them, he made a small 'oomph' sound, like it really hurt him. "Evening." Norman greeted.

"Good Evening, Norman." Yuuki greeted back, as she let go. "What did you find at the nightclub?"

They walked over to the couch, in the living room.

"As I found Paco's office, apparently he was dead by the time I got there." Norman explained. "When I pulled out ARI, the Origami Killer was there too, he attacked me and escape, by walking out the club, peacefully."

"Oh, god, that sounded horrible."

"It is horrible." Norman complained. "I was about to end up in a basket case. That bastard nearly broke my neck!"

"Are you bleeding or hurt anywhere?" Yuuki got close, as she taken off his overcoat, slowly.

"I got stabbed by a samurai sword, on my right shoulder." Yuuki taken off his suit jacket, as she noticed the bloody wound, going through his white shirt. She immediately ran upstairs to grabbed rubbing alcohol, bandages, and scissors, to dressed up his wound.

"Ow! That hurt like hell, Yuuki." Norman complained.

"Well, stop moving and whining, when I'm healing." Yuuki told him.

"You've promise me that you'd be gentle."

Yuuki stopped putting rubbing alcohol on his wound. "Are you complaining to me, again? I will get a steak knife to etch your wound, if you don't stop."

She finished disinfecting his wound. She grabbed the scissors, cut off the bandages, wrapped his wound up, and kisses it.

"Just to make it feel better." Yuuki blushed. Norman smiled at the way, she blushes and cares about him. "Are you hungry? I made dinner. It's grilled chicken and mashed potatoes."

Norman accepted Yuuki's cooking, so Yuuki went into the kitchen and prepare a plate, just for him. She walks out and handed his plate to him. He picked up the knife and fork, as he taken the first bite of Yuuki's grilled chicken. He really enjoyed her cooking, she told him that she and her mother were the only ones, who know how to cook, instead of Ethan and her father.

Later on, Norman and Yuuki were watching another movie, that was on TV.

Norman was still shirtless, with the shoulder wound bandages on him.

Yuuki was sneaking glances at Norman and his naked chest, as she was getting hot. She was biting the side of her bottom lip.

'Calm down, girl. I've seen his chest, before, but... why am I so hot, under this shirt?'

"Yuuki, what's the matter?"

"Ah, nothing! I'm just checking out what time is it." Yuuki lied, while blushing, until Norman move closer to her.

'Shit! Did he notice?'

"You're such a bad liar, Miss Mars." Norman grabbed her chin, face her face with his, and kisses her lips.

'His lips are so soft. He makes me melt inside.'

Yuuki open her mouth, as she moan, and Norman's tongue, enter and explore her mouth.

Suddenly, Yuuki's left foot, accidentally touch the stereo remote and turned on.

You're in my life
Everyday you stand by me
And embrace who I really am
And who I want to be
In this world

Norman stopped kissing Yuuki, until they both look at the stereo, it was playing a slow love song. Yuuki blushes as she recognized the song. "That's one of my favorite songs."

Norman stands up, as he walked in front of the stereo. He turned to face Yuuki, who was still sitting on the couch. As he held out his hand, Norman was clearly asking Yuuki to dancing with him, and she accepted. Yuuki was trying to slow dance with him, but somehow she forgotten how to. "What's wrong?" Norman asked.

"I forgot how to dance." Yuuki said, embarrassed. "Could you teach me?" Norman nodded as he showed her what to do.

"OK, so you put your hand, here…" he placed her right hand on his shoulder. "...and here." he held her left hand, gently. "Now , just take a step at a time and follow me." He put his remaining hand, on the curve of her waist, it felt natural there and he liked the feeling. For a minute, Yuuki spent this time, looking at her feet, following the pattern and rhythm. "There, now you're getting it." he smiled and she finally looked at Norman's pale green eyes, still following him, as he lead.

No matter what steps we take
There's a bond you cannot break
So let's keep dancing
Take my hand, here we go
We're stepping now as a pair
Move your feet, feel the beat
We're floating, lightning right through the air
Without any care

Suddenly Norman pulls in Yuuki's waist, closer to him, as they stop dancing. Yuuki cupped his face, until they pulled in for a passionate kiss. Norman moans into the kiss, as Yuuki has her arms, around his neck, while running her fingers through his soft brown hair. Norman breaks away to start trailing soft kisses down her neck, as Yuuki moans, softly. "No, I'm not going to indulge in the temptation."

"Maybe you should." Norman whispered, as he continued kissing her neck, and lifted up, her leg, to his waist.

"Norman," He looked into her brown eyes. "I don't wanna wait any longer. Please…" she got close to his right ear. "Make love to me." She whispered, before, Norman picked up her other leg, leaded and sat down on the couch, together.

He lays her down, on the couch, as Norman was on top of her, kissing her forehead, eyelids, cheeks, lips, and all the way, down to her neck. While kissing her neck, as she moans, he bites down onto her neck, to make her shriek with surprise and delight.

Norman reached down to her waist, and pulls off her black oversized off the shoulder shirt. She was wearing a blazing red lace bra, as he was looking at her breasts. Norman started kissing around the top of her breasts, as he slowly removes one of her bra straps. "Norman…" she moans, quietly.

Yuuki reached down to his belt, and tries to unbuckled it. "I'm going to have to thank your boss, when I see him." She whispered.

Norman looked up. "Why?"

"Because…" she kissing his scarred cheek. "He sent you here…" kisses his lips. "To me." He smiled while looking at her body, that was still in her blazing red bra and pajamas shorts.

"You have no idea how much I love you." Norman said, as he removed the other strap of her bra, but it was still on her, holding her breasts.

Yuuki cupped his cheeks "I have an idea." She said, before she started kissing him. Norman grabbed both of her legs, and help her, wrapped them, around his waist, while running his hands, over her exposed thighs.

Sometimes, Norman has to looked up for Yuuki's permission, to touch, kiss, or even...lick. There was a symphony of quiet moaning and sharp breathing, as they continue their love making. Yuuki and Norman was lost. Lost themselves in each other's arms, in their touch, scent and even the taste of his mouth.

Yuuki and Norman had never felt anything like this in a long time of their lives. Whenever Norman looks up at her, he always sees a beautiful woman with a loving heart, and she care about ending his triptocaine addiction.

After their passionate love making, on the couch, Yuuki was sitting on Norman's lap, resting her head on his chest, while running her finger on his hairless, naked chest. Norman, had his arm, around her waist, while looking into her big brown eyes, filled with love. "I...I haven't felt that way in a long time, Norman." Yuuki said.

Norman smiled. "Me too." He replied, as he was running his wrapped hand, over her body, trying to make her moan, while smiling at him. Suddenly Yuuki, got on top of him, and started kissing his lips, before trailing down to his chest.

"Wait, sweetie." Yuuki looked up, smiling at him. "I'm tired. Let's continue this, in the morning?"

Norman got up, off the couch, grabbed a blanket and two pillows, and he made a bed, for both of them. Since they were too tired to get up, and head upstairs to the bedroom. Once they got comfortable, in each other's arms, once again, Norman kissed Yuuki, on the lips, "Good night, Yuuki."

Yuuki close her eyes, and rested her head on his chest. "Good night, Norman."

He kissed her forehead, before closing his eyes. "I love you, so much."

"Yuuki smiled in her sleep. "I love you, too."

The song that was playing, during Yuuki and Norman's dance together was Take My Hand, from the TV show, Winx Club, episode 6, Vortex Of Flames, Bloomix Season or Season Six.

I had decided to make a rated M fanfiction of Yuuki and Norman's passionate loving making, it's going to be three chapters, and it will be called, My Love Will Live On Forever. It will explain how they did it, and there will be sexiness and lemons involved!

And I might do a remake of Ethan and Hana Mars' Life Changing Journey and changing it to Ethan's Tomboy Daughter.

In the next chapter, someone returns to see Yuuki, Kanon, and Norman, again. (Hint~Big Brother and his 'girlfriend') The next chapter will be up on Friday or Saturday!
