Hey guys! How have you been? I know it's been a long time. I was going through a hard time and my job takes up a lot of my time. However, I really missed writing and all of you. I can't promise I will post a story everyday but I will promise I will try to post a story at least 2 times a week. So, without further ado... Let's jump right back in!

Happy Birthday Babe~
Masamune POV
As I rolled over in bed, I looked over at the alarm clock. There was only an hour before Ritsu and I had to go to work. I groaned and shut my eyes. I rolled back over and touched the bed in search for my Ritsu. I shot up from the bed when I didn't feel him. Panic started to fill up my body as I looked around the room. Something filled my nose as I got out of bed. I pulled on my sweats and walked out of the room. In the kitchen, Ritsu was making coffee and setting the table.
"Good morning baby. What is all this?" I asked him as I wrapped my arms around his waist.
"Well... This is me trying to cook you something for breakfast. I made eggs and pancakes but I don't know if it tastes good." Ritsu blushed as he placed the coffee and food on the table. I smiled and kissed his neck softly.
"You didn't have to do this babe. Thank you so much. I'm sure I will love it no matter what." Ritsu smiled as he took the seat across from me. We said our prayer and Ritsu watched me as I took the first bite.
"It tastes good baby. Just needs a little salt on the eggs." I smiled at him as we finished our meal.
After we finished eating, Ritsu got up and started to clear the table. I went to help him but he swatted my hands away.
"Stay there! I have a surprise for you." He walked back in the kitchen and returned with a box. I raised my eyebrow in question and took the box.
"Ritsu, what is this?" He smiled shyly as blush made its way up to his checks and ears.
"Happy Birthday babe." I looked down in surprise.
I forgot today was my birthday and tomorrow is Christmas. I've been so busy with work and my new life with Ritsu. Good thing I got everyone's gifts. I wonder if Ritsu and I will have time today to set up the tree for the get together tomorrow.
"Aren't you gonna open it?" I heard Ritsu say and my head shot up.
"Yeah I am. I'm sorry I just forgot it was my birthday and Christmas is tomorrow." Ritsu frowned as I sighed.
"Are you okay babe?" I frowned and nodded my head.
"Yeah I am. Just thinking about the get together tomorrow. It will be the first time I ever really spent christmas with everyone. Not to mention this is my first real birthday with you." I looked down at the box again and started to rip off the paper. I opened it up and found a cat plushie. I smiled happily as I looked up at my love. He blushed deep red again, but the look I love so much light up his face.
"I have two more gifts for you but you will get those later." I stood up and gave him a long passionate kiss. Ritsu moaned softly into my mouth and I pulled back.
"If you make sounds like that we are gonna be late for work." I smacked his ass and he yelped. I chuckled as I kissed his forehead. "Come on, let's get ready for work. Only one more day until our break."
Time Skip~
As we walked into work, everyone jumped out of their seats.
"Good morning boss and Happy birthday!" Kisa jumped up and down.
"Happy Birthday Takano-san!" Hatori and Mino joined. Except, Hatori wasn't bouncing like a five-year-old.
"Thanks guys. I really appreciate it." I smiled but then sighed and... "NOW GET BACK TO WORK OR WE WON'T GET OUR BREAK!"
I laughed quietly as everyone including Ritsu jumped into the seats and started to work. I put my things down on my desk and walked to the vending machine.
"Oi Masamune!" I heard the familiar yell of my best friend Yokozawa as I bended down to grab my coffee. I stood up and turned around.
"Ugh, can you not yell like that so early in the morning?" I looked at him as I opened my coffee.
"Shut up asshole!" Yokozawa sighed and got his own coffee. "Happy birthday." I smiled as he took a sip of his coffee.
"Thanks. I'm happy I finally get to spend Christmas and my birthday with Ritsu without him fighting me." I smiled bigger as he chuckled.
"I'm glad you're happy Masamune. Speaking of Christmas, I know we all agreed to have a get together but I have a favor to ask." I looked at him and tilted my head. He cleared his throat and sighed. "Can I bring someone and their daughter?"
I choked my coffee and I processed what my friend just asked me. "You have someone and a daughter?"
"NO!" Yokozawa sighed and looked down. "Yes... His name is Zen Kirishima and he has a 10-year-old daughter named Hiyori. They... well he is my boyfriend... and Hiyori is like my daughter."
I stood there shocked that Yokozawa actually admitted that. He looked down as he swayed from foot to foot. A smile slowly made its way onto my face.
"Of course, they can come Yokozawa. I'm glad you finally found someone. Besides everyone else is bring their lover." Yokozawa half smiled as he nodded. "Zen Kirishima... Have I seen him before?"
"He is Editor-In-Charge of The Kan and Chief Editor of Shounen Department and Japun Magazine here."
"Oh yeah. I've met him a couple times." Yokozawa nodded as he cleared his throat.
"Also, can you not mention that I'm dating her father? I think we should wait to tell her until she is a little bit older." I nodded my head in agreement.
"I understand. I'll make sure everyone keeps that a secret." Yokozawa smiled gratefully and we went back to our own departments. I walked into Kisa laughing at Ritsu. He was blushing mess again and I shook my head.
"OI! GET BACK TO WORK!" I threw my empty can at Kisa's head as I roared. He fell out of his chair.
"Yes Boss." Kisa replied weakly.
Today is going to be a long day.
TIME SKIP~
I stood up as I sighed happily. "Good job everyone. You all worked really hard this year. Enjoy your break." Everyone cheered happily and started to pack up their things.
"Takano-san, what time should we meet at your place?" Hatori asked as we all walked out of the department.
"Be there at noon." They nodded while smiling. We all got on the elevator but before we all could part ways. "Oi! Yokozawa is bring his lover and his daughter. Don't let the poor ten-year-old know about our sex lives."
"WHAT!?" I heard of them yell as I grabbed Ritsu's hand and ran away.
"Masamune slow down!" Ritsu yelled out as I pulled him into the subway. I laughed as I sat down in a seat while Ritsu grasped for breath. "Why did you do that baka?"
"If we would have stayed there, they would have asked us a hundred questions." Ritsu glared at me as I started to pout. "It's my birthday baby. Please don't be mad. Koishiteru."
Ritsu sighed while shaking his hand. I tugged on his hand to bring him down on the seat. I laid my head on his shoulder. As I looked up at him, I saw a slow smile makes its way onto his face.
"So, what are we doing for the rest of the night?" I asked as I lifted my head.
"Well we have to put the tree up and the gifts have to go under the tree." Ritsu smiled and stood up. "However, I got something planned before that." I felt my eyebrows push together as he took my hand. The subway doors open and I was pulled out into the cold night.
Ritsu smiled happily as he dragged me into the busy night of downtown Toyko.
"Ritsu, Where the heck are we going?!" I asked him while he stopped in front of a restaurant.
"It's your birthday baka. Why wouldn't I take you out?" Ritsu asked me with his 'are you stupid' smirk.
"Oi! Don't look at me like that mister or I'll make sure you have a sore back in the morning." I smirked back at him. Ritsu smirk only got bigger as he grabbed my jacket to pull me down.
"I look forward to it." He whispered seductively in my ear. I felt a nose bleed coming on as Ritsu opened the door for us.
"Onodera for two." Ritsu told the usher as he nodded and led us to our table.
The table was lit by candles and there was a bouquet of roses right in the middle. There was a huge chandelier hanging down and the room was decorated with old art.
This place looks really expensive...
"Ritsu, how much is this place gonna cost?" I asked him as soon as the usher left.
"Babe, don't worry about it. You over work yourself all the time and I thought this might be a nice break. You deserve it." I smiled shyly as Ritsu reached over and laid his hand on mine. "Koishiteru Takano Masamune and Happy Birthday."
"Thank you love. You're the best." We looked at our menu and I figured out it was an Italian place.
I have been craving chicken alfredo lately.
When our waiter came, Ritsu ordered the finest bottle of champagne. I whipped my head towards him as the waiter smiled and said 'Very good Sir'. He walked away as I stared at my boyfriend in shock.
"Okay... I know I pay you but... do I pay you that good?" Ritsu laughed and shook his head.
"Masamune, I live with you now so all my money isn't being spend on bills except my phone bill." I nodded my head in understanding. "Even though I have offered to help with the bills." Ritsu added under his breath.
"I heard that smart mouth." I smirked as a light shade of pink covered Ritsu cheeks. "You are a blushing mess today. I love it."
"Shut up baka!" I laughed as Ritsu blushed more.
I'm glad we go to this point in the relationship. We can play with each other now without me worrying about my love leaving again and Ritsu is more open about our relationship and how much he really loves me. I couldn't ask for more in life.
"Here is your champagne Sir." The waiter poured champagne into our glasses and stood back up. "Are you ready to order?" He looked at both of us with a smile.
"I'll have the chicken alfredo with a side salad." I told him as I handed him the menu. He wrote down my order and took my menu. He turned and smiled at Ritsu a little too brightly for my taste.
"And for you Sir?" Hmmmm...
"Umm... I'll have the Creamy Tomato Parmesan Chicken with a side salad and can we have an order of bread sticks." Ritsu smiled at him and handed him the menu.
"Of course, you can. I'll even throw the breadsticks in for free Sir." He smiled more and took the menu from Ritsu. Only he touched his hand and pulled away very slowly.
I cleared my throat loudly as he whipped his head back to me. I raised my eyebrows as he turned red. He bowed and hurried away.
Prick... he is my hot date. Matter a fact, he is my boyfriend. I'll smack that smile right off your face son of a bitc...
Ritsu's giggling stopped my train of thought. I raised my eyebrow at him as he tried to cover his laugher with a cough.
"What?" I asked while faking innocence. He smirked as he leaned forward.
"You didn't think I didn't just notice all that did you?" He giggled again as he reached for his glass. "You are one jealous man babe."
"I protect what's mine." I said as I reached for my glass. Ritsu rasied his and smile.
"Here is to your first real birthday with me and many more to come." We clicked our glasses and took a drink. It went down smoothly and just the right amount of coolness.
We shared stories about our childhood birthdays while we waited for out dinner. I learned Ritsu also had many birthdays without his parents due to the company. I never really thought about how Ritsu probably also grew up without his parents. We have something else in common.
Our food came and we said our prayer. We both drove into our food and hummed in the wonderful taste.
"This is really good." He smiled as he shoved more into his mouth. I chucked as I watched my adorable boyfriend enjoy his meal.
Time Skip~
Ritsu paid for the check and I was about to get up before he stopped me.
"Hold on! I wanna give you your second gift for the night." I smiled shyly again as I took my seat. Ritsu pulled out another smaller box and handed it to me. I opened it up and saw that it was a book I have been trying to find for quite some time. I smiled happily at Ritsu as he leaned forward again.
"Do you like it?" I reached over and held Ritsu chin. I kissed him softly. I don't care if anyone saw us. I don't care what they would think. All I care about right now is my amazing boyfriend and how much I really love him and how much he loves me. I pulled back to find Ritsu smiling softly and looking at me with so much love in his eyes I could hardly breathe.
"Thank you, baby. Thank you so much. Koishiteru." Ritsu smiled brightly and stood up.
"Come on birthday boy. We still have to set up the tree and then I have one more gift for you." I nodded and stood up.
Time Skip~
"HAHAHA!" I laughed loudly as Ritsu was telling me a story about his childhood.
"Oi! It can happen to anyone!" I closed the door to our apartment while trying to control my laugher.
"I don't know anyone who runs into a door 3 times because he was so shocked about a part in his favorite book." Ritsu huffed as we slipped off our shoes and went inside.
"Whatever. That still shocks the shit out of me everything I read it." I shook my head as I went into the spare room. I opened the closest and pulled out the Christmas tree we brought. I grabbed the bag with all the gifts and went into the living room.
"Alright baby. Where should we put these bad boys." I asked as I put the bag and tree down.
"Put it by the window." Ritsu smiled as he pointed at what he thought was the perfect shot. I chuckled and nodded my head.
We took out the tree and started to put it together. Ritsu started to put on the lights as I finished fluffing it out. Once he was done, we put on the rainbow-colored ornaments we brought.
"You think they will get the joke with the rainbow ornaments." Ritsu chuckled as we finished.
"I'm sure they will." I pulled out the star and put it on top of the tree. "All most done." I smiled as I opened the bag. I handed the gifts to Ritsu as he put them all under the tree. I turned off the lights as we stared at our tree. It has honestly been a long time since I ever put up a Christmas tree.
I smiled as I looked at Ritsu. He was smiling brightly again while staring at the tree. Outside it had begun to snow and the street lights shinned against the snowflakes. I took a couple steps back and pulled out my phone. I snapped a picture of my personal heaven. Ritsu shining brightly with our Christmas tree lit up with happiness and calming snow flowing outside.
Ritsu turned around and smiled. "Are you ready for your last gift?"
I nodded my head as I smiled happily.
"Close your eyes and don't open them until I say." I sighed and closed my eyes. I heard Ritsu run into the bedroom. I laughed quietly under my breath. "Okay. Open them."
I slowly opened my eyes. Ritsu smiled as looked up with his eyes. I followed his eyes and saw mistletoe above our heads. I smiled slowly as Ritsu came closer. I leaned down and our lips touched. I pulled him close as our kiss deepens. I slid my tongue into his mouth as he fought for dominance. I smirked into the kiss and squeezed his tight little ass. He grasped and I bit his lip.
When we pulled away, my body was crying for more. Ritsu looked at the time on the clock as he smiled slowly until he was shining like the sun.
"Merry Christmas Masamune." I kissed him quickly and picked him up. I spun him around and kissed him again when I put him down.
"Merry Christmas Ritsu." I kiss his neck. "Now... about making you sore..."
So, there it is you guys! I really missed this. I couldn't stop smiling as I wrote this story. I missed all of you so much. I hope I can stick to this without something getting in the way again. Like I said before I can't promise I'll post everyday but I will try to at least twice a week. Anyways... Stay tuned for another One-Shot of "The Start of Our Life Together" in my series "Our Super Crazy and Loving Life".
P.S. The last gift was Ritsu himself. I didn't know if I made that clear enough. Lol
Until next time!
Kiss Kiss xxx
