“Sweetheart, are you okay?” Maleek asked Gina as they lay in bed together, and he was tracing a circle on her arm.

“Yeah.” She said as she could hardly place any of her thoughts. She was content to lay there in his arms with her head on his chest.

“Are you sure?” he asked as he moved and settled in next to her gathering her in his arms and holding her to him.

“Yea, Maleek,” she said as she stared into his eyes. This man she knew was not perfect. He was obsessive and playful, but he was not perfect in any way, but he was to her. They may have complete blowups and meltdowns together, but they would always have that spark that could ignite at any time. They were friends. They were almost family. They were now the other half of each other. They were lovers.

“I didn’t hurt you?” he asked.

“No.,” she re

    Gina woke up again and stretched as she did; she felt two hands on her hips move slightly. She smiled to herself; this was her life now. She rolled over and was greeted by a kiss that stole any breath she had away. “Come on, sleepyhead, we still have a lot to do today.” He said when he was done.“Pretty sure it is your fault I slept so late.” She replied as she reached over and got her towel as he stood up with nothing on.“Get used to it.” He said, and she didn’t know if he meant his nakedness or his lovemaking.“I will try.” She replied as she went to go find her bag of clothes. When he emerged from his room dressed in a tee-shirt and jeans, she was standing in the Kitchen with a sundress on, and he licked his lips. “What?’“Thank you for the foresight.”

    “I think we should go over early and talk to mom and dad,” Gina said when they woke up.“I do too.” He replied with a smile.“You do?” she asked, surprised.“You have to realize, sweetheart, your parents are my friends. Now I have made their daughter, you, mine. I have to go and talk to them and make sure everything is cool with them.” He said.“What if they don’t like it, Maleek?” she asked with a little fear in her voice.“Then we will have to make them realize that we are good together, sweetheart. I really don’t think they will mind.” He said.“You don’t?” she asked.“No, my princess. We will be fine even if they are a little mad about us for a bit.” He replied. “I love you, and not even your parents can stop that.”“Ma

    Calista Akechi sat in the main room in her parent's house as she listened to the chaos going on around her. The third oldest of the Akechi clan, she was the oldest still in the house. At nineteen, she was already ahead of her sisters Reena and Gina in college at the same age. Calista was going to graduate three years early in the field of astrophysics. She was the only one who took advantage of the high school program to get college credits while still enrolled in high school. She only had to do a few classes at the college to finalize her good fortune. She knew she would have to go to graduate school but wondered about the when of that.“Mom, how the hell do you think with all this noise?” Calista called out as she looked at her mother, Krissy, in her office.“I learned to block them all out because of you four.” Krissy laughed as she turned back to her computer. Krissy was the county pathologist reviewer, and she still held her p

    Calista was surprised but did not let it show until after the kiss was done. She started to analyze it and break it down. What could this possibly mean? She watched him for any clues that he might give off, but his face was the same as it always was. It wasn't until she looked into his deep forest floor-colored eyes that she saw the storm within them. It was her only clue.She remembered that he always had a stoic look on his face. It had been one of the things she thought about him was almost perfect. It wasn't that he wouldn’t smile; it was he couldn’t. He was always cracking some sort of lame dad joke, which would make her smile and often laugh too hard and to the point of choking. He was the only one in her life that could do that.“What?” she asked as she looked up to him.“I am sorry.” He said as he tried to look anywhere but at her. “I really should not have done that.”&ld

    “I often wonder if this was what the other two felt, but they could act on it much sooner,” Steven said softly.“I don’t think it is,” Calista said as she tilted her head. “My sisters have the ability to turn heads and knew it at the time.”“And you think you don’t?” Steven asked with a laugh, “Calista, you are the one most like Krissy. You do realize your mother is gorgeous, and your dad is a lucky man, right?”“I never saw it other than the science aspect. She loves science, and I took after that way. I mean, Reena did too, but not as much.” Calista said softly.“Reena is Reena, and Gina is Gina. Calista, you are special in your own way, as well.” Steven said as he looked her over.“And you have to be the one to tell me that?” She chuckled.“Yes, I believe I do have to be the one to tell you that. “He replie

    The pair in the living room of the small house feel into a comfortable silence. All you could hear was the click-clacking of Calista’s keyboard as she hammered out the report she was actually there for. Every once in a while, she would steal a glance at the person on the other couch and wonder how this happened. She knew how she had felt about the man before and pretty much all of her life with him in it. He was just always there. It seemed in the forefront of her mind. Now he was really there. She was looking over her repot and wondered how much of it would make sense as she wasn’t putting her normal effort in.She did have a choice to make. She knew it was not a decision she could take lightly either. This was everything she had strived for, but not it was not as it was supposed to happen. She now had to make a choice, here or somewhere else. He was here. Here was where she knew. Here was not a top-rated university either.Ever

    “And what do you mean by that statement?” Steven asked. Calista noticed that his voice seemed deeper and was laced with a desire that he normally did not show. He normally did not show any emotion at all, so it was almost comical to her to hear it in his voice at all.“I meant I trust you,” Calista said.“You shouldn’t trust any man, sweetheart.” He said as he looked at her, snuggled up next to him. He pulled her closer, and he smiled into her hair as he kissed her gently.“Any other man and I wouldn’t. You have earned my trust, Steven.” Calista said, and he groaned softly.“Then let’s have a drink. One or two only otherwise, I may do something I would regret.” Steven said.“Like what?” Calista prompted, and he pulled away from her.“Well, I would prefer to be able to remember anything I do actually do.” Steven sa

    Morning came, and the light of the new day was filling the room and spilling light into their eyes as they lay on the floor of the living room covered in a blanket and each other. Steven woke up first and just looked at the woman next to him. Though he remembered the night before well, he wished it had been slightly different. They both had things they needed to do and say before something like the night before happened. Steven knew he was asking her to give up her dream in a way. He had watched her sisters years before rearranging their lives to stay with Yuri and Maleek, and he didn’t ever want to be that guy to her. He wanted to be the one who gave her those dreams, not steal them away. He brushed the hair off her face softly as she slept and just wanted to hold her there close to him, if only for that night and this morning. A feeling took hold, and he didn’t want to let it go.Calista opened her eyes slightly as the l

    Four days later, the group stood on the front lawn of the Uesugi house. There were cars lined up and down the street. As the couple stood there and watched as their families all were happy along with friends and all the kids playing together, Morgana’s parents showed up. “no.” was all she said.“Morgana? “Greg asked as he looked down at his wife and saw her expression change. He looked up and saw her eyes on a well-dressed, somewhat fancy older couple walking up to them. “Those are your parents?”“Yes. “She said as she could breathe again.“Morgana. It is time to pack up and come home with everyone else. Ah, Kenshin.” Her mother said as she looked behind Morgana to her uncle, “It is time to have everyone in their rightful place, and the kids come home.”“Well, my home is here,” Morgana said as she looked at her mother and father, who were

    Greg drove to the new house he had signed for hours before he had seen her again today. He watched her as her eyes widened. “What is this?” She asked.“Hopefully, our first place.” He said as he got out and met her at the door of the house.“What?” she asked.“I told you things happened fast when I asked my parents for a little help.” Greg laughed. “Here is your key.”“Are you serious?” She asked as he handed her the key. She unlocked the door and was amazed at how the house opened up.“There is a second and third floor, really. This is like a gaming room or something.” Greg said, and she was racing up the stairs. She was standing in the middle of the main room when he caught up to her. She saw the air mattress and everything else that was there for them to use for the night. “Do you like it?”“I love it.” S

    Greg stood off to the side at the party. He was thinking of everything that still needed to be done quickly. He had one thing he really wanted to do right now, but he wanted to do it in private. He knew what the answer would be. He knew that she was his future. He had always known that.Everything and everyone was a little too much for him at the moment. He was getting antsy. He looked at his father, who was running around playing with one of the kids. He looked at his mother and then at his sisters and their families. He knew what he wanted in life. He wanted it all right now."How’s it good to be out of the warzone?” His father’s old boss asked as he smiled at boogs in his uniform.“Who said I was out of it.” Greg laughed. “right now, it feels like I am still there.”“We all understand that feeling.” He said with a laugh. “If you need some air go get it. You probably

    Greg was in his dress uniform as they loaded everyone into his parent's cars. Both had minivans for the younger ones that they had. He got into his car. He smiled as he followed his parents to the local university, and he parked in the back lot, and then he started to where he would be sitting with her uncle. He was steading himself for that.When he saw the small group that was waiting for him. He also noticed that people were looking at him. Kenshin smirked as he looked at his uniform. "I can't believe you chose to wear that.""Well, I did just get home. "Greg said as he put out his hand to shake the older man's hand. The little kids were there around his legs waiting to be hugged. He lifted them all up to look at them, and they giggled and laughed."Well, not really just got home," Kenshin said as he looked at the younger man. "She told me.""She did?" Greg asked. He was really surprised."Despite the differences between us, she is

    When Gina got there, she looked over the two men and laughed. "go." She said as she watched over the younger ones along with her own kids. She went into the Kitchen and began to get some meals for the family. Everything was going to busy for the next few days. Though she was a baker, she was married to a cook. She had learned a few tricks.The two men went to go look at the places after Mark sweet-talked some people into giving them the keys. He was ready to jump when they looked in the first place. Greg looked around, and then he walked up the stairs. "Dad, this has four bedrooms.""Yes, and you will need that many." Mark laughed. "Do you know how hard I had to work to get you the chance at a huge place?""I know," Greg said as he looked around. "Thank you. I like this one, and I think she would as well.""Are you sure?" Mark asked. "We can look at the others.""This one," Greg said as he looked around."I figure

    The morning came too soon. Greg got up and walked downstairs. He saw there were things all ready for him to go through. "Why are these boxes here?""Because I think it is time for you to move out," Mark said with a smile."Well, that is the plan," Greg said."No, I mean today," Mark said with a huge grin. "I made a few phone calls this morning. I have so many more contacts than even your mother but don't ever tell her that.""Dad, what did you do?" Greg asked. He walked into the Kitchen and knew he needed coffee for this. He really had no idea what his father had done."Well, I thought about what I said last night. This was actually your mother's idea." Mark said."Mom wants me to move out?" Greg asked as he took a sip of his coffee."Well," Mark said."No, I don't." Krissy said as she entered the room. "However, I know what you have to have to get the kids.""The kids?" Greg asked."That is the poin

    "give me a few hours to think everything through. This is not something that we can rush." Greg said as he looked at her. Everything needed to fall into its place. "The biggest thing is you have to act like you haven't seen me, and we don't have anything up our sleeves.""I think I can do that," Morgana said as she looked at him. "Greg, I will do anything to keep them away from the neglect they will suffer at the hands of our parents.""I know." He said as he hugged her close. "Are your parents coming here tomorrow?""I don't think so." She said as she looked at him. "They have never thought to do anything for them or me unless they wanted something.""That works in our favor," Greg said. "I am going to go home and think about this some more on what we can realistically do.""Whatever, Greg." She said as she nodded, "I will do whatever remember that.""I completely understand that." He said as he kissed her forehead. "Go get so

    The two were locked together, and they both knew that things were changing really quickly between them. The kiss deepened even more, and soon they had lost track of time. Greg pulled up first though he really didn't want to. "As much as I want this to continue, I can't let it.""Why not?" Morgana asked as she looked at him and his large green eyes."First off, you deserve a lot more than something quick in the back of a car." Greg laughed. "Let alone my dad's car at that. Your uncle might be okay and all, but I doubt he would let me stay with you tonight, and my house is full to the brim with people.""I see your point." Morgana laughed. "So what happens now?""Well, the best thing I can think of is in the morning I will get my car, and then I will see you at your graduation. I know you probably have plans afterward." Greg said as he ran his fingers down her cheek as he looked into her eyes."Actually, I don't. I think m

    After everyone packed up, and it was just the family. Krissy went off to herd all the little ones to bed. They all were wound up and not ready for it, but they wouldn't give their mother too much trouble. They would play with Mark until they fell asleep. Greg looked at the organized chaos and shook his head."Looks like a chow hall." Mark said as he chuckled. "if it was something good.""Well, I do have to think you might be right." Greg laughed. "I was thinking it was more like boot camp.""Well, your mother is a drill sergeant at times," Mark said with another deep chuckle. "So I will go help her in a bit. She knows I would give in to them, but after the second time they are out of bed, they will listen if I look at them a certain way. That is coming up soon. So here.""Why are you giving me your keys?" Greg asked as he looked at the item his dad was handing over."Surprise or not, we both know you are going across tow
