So I'm leaving tomorrow on a vacation for about three weeks which means no internet (at least I think there may be spots with it but I won't be there long enough to actually do anything) so... sorry about that!
I have decided to have a twitter my username is Isabella1948. So I'll be using it to give you updates on my writing but let me know if you would also like for me to post other stuff. (This is for you guys so let me know!)
Ch. 21- Tiger Mom Akihito
Takeo released a sign "I figured as much. You seemed much more protective of the boy than I thought you would have been. Plus you can't keep your hand off of his stomach."
Ryuichi merely smirked in return and nodded his head.
"Wait!" Kenta whispered. "I'm already an uncle?"
"In about 6 months you will be." Akihito said smiling at how well everyone seemed to be taking it. He knew his dad had problems with it but was smart enough to not say anything out loud or Akihito would run out of the house and not look back. This baby was his and Ryuichi's and if anyone disliked the baby or tried to harm it in anyway they would have hell to pay.
"Nooo. Make it come out sooner." Kenta whined, while looking at Akihito's stomach. But then he seemed to get lost in his thoughts of staring at it and was startled when Akihito started to speak.
"Would you like to touch it Kenta?" Akihito asked recognizing the face Kenta had on as the same one Asami often got when he wanted to touch his baby bump but was scared he would hurt the little life growing inside.
"Can I?" Kenta whispered while looking up with wide eyes.
Akihito nodded his head, "You will be the baby's favorite uncle won't you?"
"Obviously." Kenta said while sticking his chin out and trying to look confidant.
Kenta leaned over and gently rested his hand on top of Akihito's stomach.
"It's nothing much now. I can't wait until this little one starts to move around." Akihito said looking at his stomach fondly.
"That's enough." Ryuichi said after about ten seconds.
Kenta and Akihito both glared at the man but decided it was too much effort to argue with him and instead Kenta sighed and leaned back to his side of the couch and Akihito mumbled something along the lines of possessive bastard but leaned back against Ryuichi anyway.
"You disgust me." Was barely hear from the side of the room.
Everyone looked up to see Mami and Aiko staring with looks of disgust and horror at Akihito who wrapped his arms around his stomach and leaned further into Asami feeling his child's life would be in danger around these two females.
"How can you sit there on my son's lap like everything's perfectly normal?" Aiko said.
"You are a male. You shouldn't be able to get pregnant." Mami took over, "I bet that thing growing inside of you is going to be to frail and ugly that Ryuichi is just going to take one look at the disgusting blob and throw both you and that thing out."
Aiko smiled at Mami then continued, "Then he's going to come back to his family and marry Mami here and have gorgeous children."
"If you just can't bring yourself to get an abortion I'm sure Ryuichi wouldn't mind if you just ran away or killed yourself and the child. In fact I'd help you kill that thing inside of you. I should be the one to bare Ryuichi and heir not you!"
"Like fucking hell that will happen."
To everyone's surprise it wasn't Kenta or Ryuichi that said this but Akihito himself.
Ryuichi smirked. His family had seen Akihito when he was to shy to think about much else and had only seen him hiding behind Ryuichi. But someone had insulted people he loved, had basically threatened the life of his child and if Asami was a protective bastard then Akihito was a protective tiger mom who just had his cubs threatened. Oh there was going to be hell to pay for that.
"Shut the fuck up you bitch." Akihito said once he saw Mami opening her mouth to respond.
Akihito got off of Ryuichi's lap and walked over to where Aiko and Mami were standing.
"If you think I'm going to let you stand there and insult my family especially my child then you are dumber than I thought you were." Akihito said between his teeth which were clenched in anger, while glaring at Mami.
"Don't yo..." Aiko started but was silenced when Akihito's glare turned on her.
"I'm guessing you've heard of the Jakuson group." Akihito said turning to look at Mami and Aiko before focusing on Mami. "Well guess what? I'm that groups future leader and son of the present leader. I can have you killed by a wave of my hand. In fact I have a gun in my pocket right now. What's to stop me from pulling it out and shooting you right here for what you just said, for how you have been behaving this entire night? You think you're better than me? Well now that you know my social status, and how I am far above you in social rank, am I still unfit to stand next to Ryuichi, am I still unfit to bare the child of myself and Ryuichi? If you wish to even be able to bare children in the future, run." Akihito said with one of his hand on his stomach and a fire in his eyes.
"Now wait just one second!" Aiko yelled, "You can't speak to her like that. She is Ryuichi's fiance and as Ryuichi's mother I get a say in who he marries and I sure as hell don't approve of you."
"Well I believe that my child should be able to choose who he marries." Takeo spoke up. "And from the looks of things I believe that it is safe to say that Akihito is who he chooses." he smiled with a glace towards Akihito's stomach.
"I'm grown up, anyway. I don't have to do as my mother says anymore. Especially since you never acted like a mother anyway, I thought the nanny was my mother until you fired her." Ryuichi said as he stood up and walked up to stand next to Akihito and rested his arm around Aki's waist. With a proud glint in his eye Ryuichi looked down at Akihito before continuing to speak. "Besides, I always get what I want, and I want Akihito so it looks like you are just going to have to get used to him or get out of the way, mother."
"Don't you dare speak to me like that!" Aiko yelled at Ryuichi.
"Then don't look down on Akihito."
"I'll do as I please. This is my house and you cannot tell me what to do in it."
"It will not be your house much longer if you keep behaving like this, Aiko." Takeo jumped into the argument.
"I'm their mother I'll do as I please."
"Oh, so suddenly when it benefits you, you are our loving caring mother. Oh how thoughtful." Kenta retorted from where he was still sitting relaxed on the couch.
"How dare you, you child. I gave birth to you. I carried you around for 9 months." Aiko yelled as she stormed over to where Kenta was sitting.
"Wow I think that that was probably the only thing you ever did for Ryu and me. Oh and nine months, wow, that's probably a new record for the most time you spent with either of us." Kenta said back tensing up and glaring at his so called mother.
Aiko raised her hand as if to slap Kenta but was quickly intercepted by both Ryuichi and Takeo.
"Don't you dare touch my son/brother." Takeo and Ryuichi said at the same time through girted teeth and glares that could kill just by looking at them.
"Look, I put up with you for this long because I felt bad for you," Takeo said to his wife. "But I can not put up with you anymore." His face adapted a look of pity. "The reason I will let my son's choose anyone they wish to marry is because I didn't have that choice and I got stuck with you in order to save your family business. But I've had enough I want you to go pack your bags and move out." he said with a sigh. "I was willing to put up with you but you just tried to harm one of my children so please leave as soon as you can."
Suddenly the crisp sound of a sharp slap was heard around the room, resonating off of the walls. And a soft thud as the victim fell to the floor from the slap and from the shock of actually being hit.
"Do...do you se...see what you have done?" Mami said through tears as she stared down at Akihito who was rubbing the back of his head from where he had hit it on the ground.
Akihito had to admit Mami was stronger than she looked, that slap had hurt and had enough power, mixed with the surprise of it, to send him to the ground.
Everyone else in the room was too shocked to do much. No one had expected Mami to be the one to act out in violence. But Ryuichi only took about one second to be surprised before he was kneeling beside Akihito trying to make sure that he and the baby were alright.
Mami continued not noticing how Akihito's surprise was quickly turning to anger, or the looks she was receiving from everyone else in the house minus, of course, Aiko. "You... you are making them...them fight. How dare you! How dare you come in here and tear up this family!" Mami yelled out turning her jealous at seeing Ryuichi stand up for Akihito into anger directed towards Akihito.
"THAT'S IT!" Takeo yelled. "OUT!"
"Wha...?" Mami started but was cut off by Takeo who's face was turning a dangerous color of red.
"OUT NOW! BOTH OF YOU!"
"My stuff." Aiko started.
"Mine too." Whispered Mami a little scared of Takeo but trying to act confident in front of everyone in order to save ever the tiniest sliver of what dignity and worthiness the Asami's saw in her.
"I'll get movers to ship it over to your houses. But right now I want both of you out of my house."
Before either one of them could protest again Ryuichi stood up with that calm expression on his face that was anything but calm and promised a word of hell to whoever had caused it.
"But don't worry Mami. I'm sure that I will be seeing you very soon." He said helping Akihito to his feet and wrapping a protective arm around his young lovers waist. "After all I'm a business man and I have to pay you back for that lovely gift you just granted Akihito, plus interest, of course."
"I...I..."
"I suggest you say nothing and get the hell out of this house." Kenta said with a glare as he came up to stand next to his brother's lover and new friend.
Seeing that they were outnumbered and out gunned, Aiko huffed and turned towards Mami.
"Let's go. We shouldn't be around trash like them anyway. It lowers the quality of the air just standing in the same room as them." Aiko said putting on an air of arrogance and high class before grabbing Mami's arm and leading her towards the door. "Let's go child there is much to see in the world and I won't have us be held down by the likes of those people."
"But they..." Mami stuttered before bowing her head and following quietly behind Aiko who was still practically dragging her by the arm and out the door.
"Aiko why did you do that?" Mami asked once the door shut behind them.
"Because child you must learn to pick your battles and with all four of them it was a loosing fight that would only deem to embarrass us." Aiko said dropping Mami's arm.
"But we have nothing without them."
"We will go live at your old house for now."
"Then what?"
"Then we get that brat alone." Aiko said looking ahead with her eye's narrowed, "he needs to learn that it's not nice to ruin people's families."
Mami smiled and continued after Aiko as both women strode down the street and away from the Asami manor.
Once the door was shut Akihito let out a breath of air and blindly walked over to the couch before he flopped down on it and started to rub soothing circles on his stomach.
It didn't help as much to sooth him as when Ryuichi rubbed his stomach but no way in hell was he going to ask Ryuichi to do something as embarrassing as that little lone admit that he actually liked it when Ryuichi rubbed his stomach.
Ryuichi chuckled before moving over to the couch that Akihito laid on. Ryuichi picked up Akihito's head, trying not to jostle the boy, sat down, then gently laid his lovers head onto his lap and started to run his fingers through the silky blonde locks.
"Well that was exhausting." Kenta said as he too found an empty sitting area in the room and flopped down.
"Mmm" Was the most intelligent response that came from Akihito as he nuzzled into Ryuichi's stomach and slowly started to drift off to sleep.
"It appears as though it is time to leave." Ryuichi said as he noticed Akihito starting to fall asleep.
Takeo chuckled, "It appears so." He said standing up.
Meanwhile Kenta had dragged himself back onto his feet and Akihito was half standing half being carried by Ryuichi.
The small group slowly made it's way to the door.
"Bye Aki come back soon." Kenta said as he leaned against the door frame and waved goodbye to his new friend.
"Please call if you need anything Ryuichi. And don't forget to call me when you two decide to get married."
"Will do." Ryuichi said as he shook his fathers hand and rubbed his little brother's head with a smirk, on the way out the door with an almost dead on his feet Akihito.
Ryuichi chuckled and gently leaned down to hook his arm underneath Akihito's legs and picked the lithe, plus a baby bump, boy up and into his arms.
Looking down at the young boy in his arms Asami couldn't help but smile a little as he walked towards his limo.
Kirishima opened the door for his boss and his boss's lover, giving the man a nod as he watched Asami gently place the sleeping boy into the car and then getting in himself. Kirishima gently closed the door, knowing hell was waiting if he woke up the boy, and walked around to the front of the car where Suoh was waiting in the drivers seat.
The two of them let out a sigh as Suoh gently pressed the gas and drove them back to the Jakuson estate.
The ride back was silent as Akihito slept peacefully in the back seat with his head on his head on his lovers lap and his hair being combed through by the big warm hands that he will always love.
Once they reached the Jakuson estate it was well past one in the morning and Asami craddled Akihito in his arms as he walked inside the house.
Asami was about to continue up the stair but he noticed movement to his right and turned to see Daichi standing up from where he had been sitting on the chair, wearing his pajamas and looking exhausted.
Daichi looked at his son in Ryuichi's arms then back up to stare at Ryuichi before giving him a nod.
Asami nodded back and continued on his way upstairs and into their room, aka Akihito's former room which he had moved into.
Gently laying Akihito down onto the bed Asami started to strip the boy before covering him with the blankets. Asami chuckled a little seeing Akihito almost instantly curl up into the blankets and pillows and appear to become one with the bed. Stripping himself Asami then carefully got into bed next to Akihito and pulled his little lover against him before wrapping his arms around the young boy.
Akihito stirred but Asami started to run his hands through Akihito's hair again the the boy quickly settled down and curled up against Asami. After watching his young lover sleep for a little Asami laid his head down on the pillow next to Akihito and quickly followed his lover to sleep.
