Chapter 18 the restaurant

The Swan.

That was the name of the restaurant. It was high class eating place, where only the rich could afford to eat. And he knew it quite well. It was the only restaurant that had a separate dinning room, where he (and sometimes others) could eat in peace without being disturbed by the press and by other rotten persons.

----

Hilary ate her fish slowly, while looking odd at Milo.

"What?" she finally asked him, "Do I have some fish stuck between my teethes".

Milo quickly shook his head signalling no and stared down at his own fish.

Milo is acting weird this evening. Why does he keepflashing stupid grins and winkinghis eye at me... all the time!Hilary thought, but was pulled out of her thoughts by a little child's voice.

"Mama?"

Hilary looked at her son, secretly thankful that he was here too, since Milo was acting all weird.

"What it is sweetie?" She asked him.

Gou poked to his untouched fish his Mama had ordered to him, he looked up at her with his big ruby eyes.

"I don't like the fish" he said pouting.

Hilary was just about to say something to him when Milo interrupted.

"Y'know Gou, if you eat it you might get some mutant powers" Milo said very eager, "Y'know, like...like the Power Rangers!" Milo continued when both Hilary and Gou just stared at him odd. Gou looked terror- stricken down at the fish and then up at his mother.

"Mama Mama, I-I don't wanna be like the Power Wangers!" Gou said with an almost teary face.

Hilary stared at Milo with an annoyed look before calmly placing her hand over Gou's to calm him down. She got out off her chair and crutched down in front of Gou, still with his hand in hers.

"Don't worry sweetie! It's only uncle Milo and stupid people, who mutates if they eat fish" Hilary glanced at Milo as she said the last sentence, "Nothing will happen to you! Now have you even tried to taste the fish?" Hilary asked Gou as she went to sit in her chair again. Gou shook his head. Hilary smiled at him, "Try a little bit, and if you don't like it, you'll just leave it on the plate... all right".

Gou glanced hesitantly down at the fish. He picked some fish up on his fork and slowly putted it in his mouth. After some few chews he looked up at his mother and smiled.

"It tastes good" he exclaimed with boyish joy. Hilary smiled, her tactic had worked, while Milo sat a bit mute probably sulking about his little stunt that didn't work.

----
Kai sat in his car looking at the entrance to the restaurant. He held his phone up to his ear.

"You are certain that this is the place Tala?" he asked with a monotone voice.

"Absolutely, he placed his reservations under 'Milo McKinney' it wasn't that difficult to find" Tala said proudly.

"All right" Kai answered short and hung up the phone. He stepped out of the car and proceeded to walk up to the entrance he knew quite well.

He walked in and the receptionist immediately recognized him.

"Monsieur Hiwatari, I-I didn't know that you would be here tonight" the receptionist said shocked with a heavy French accent. The receptionist scanned through the papers of reservations. God knew that the owner would be mad if his most famous customer didn't get his regular table.

Kai locked his glance to the table where Milo was sitting with his son and Hilary and frowned. If it stood to him, Milo would no longer be sitting alone with his family. Kai smiled when he saw his young son looking up and exclaiming.

----

"PAPA!" Gou exclaimed joyful and in a splint of a moment was out off his chair and up with his father tugging at his legs. Kai bended down and picked him up in his arms.

Hilary's heart dropped when she saw Kai.

What is he doing here? She thought frantically.

The receptionist stood with a wild look on his face, not really comprehending what was going on. Kai gave a small glance to the receptionist.

"I'll be seated with them" he said and pointed towards Hilary and Milo.

Hilary's eyes widen as Kai came closer and closer. One of the waiters was following behind like a little dog with a chair in his hands. Hilary's eyebrows knitted together and she stood up. Kai placed Gou down on the floor. Hilary looked at Milo.

"Milo, will you please take Gou and..." Hilary looked around the restaurant and saw a big aquarium with living fishes swimming around. Hilary pointed with her hand towards the aquarium, "- and take him to see those fishes. I need to talk to Kai - alone".

Milo did as she said. He could clearly sense the tension that seemed to be floating around Hilary and Kai. He took Gou by the hand and followed him down to the aquarium.

Hilary turned to look at Kai with furious ruby eyes.

"What are you doing here?" She snapped at him.

"Isn't it obvious?" he answered curtly and sat down refusing to look at her. Hilary did the same; she didn't want to bring any unnecessarily attention to them. Hilary's eyes widen in recognition.

"Oh... my... god! I can't believe it. You are jealous!"

-----

Far away, by the aquarium stood Milo watching what was going on between Kai and Hilary. He groaned inwardly.

When will I ever learn to think before I talk he thought to himself. Milo was of course thinking about that night when he blurted out to Kai that Hilary had a son who looked just like him.

He looked down at Gou who was totally engrossed in one of the swimming fishes. He crutched down to see what that had caught Gou's attention. He gave a small glance to the table.

“Think I have a chance with your mother kid?” he muttered. Gou looked up the spell had been broken when Milo had started to talk. Gou looked briefly at Milo and shifted his gaze to his parents.

“Nooo,” said a small child voice.

Milo looked at Gou in surprise. Had the little kid just answered his question? A question he had directed to himself to answer? Milo shook his head at himself, for crying out loud. The kid was what… on his way to be four. What did he know about love.

“Heh, What do you know kiddo” Milo said almost laughing to himself.

“Papa likes Mama too” came the small reply and once again Milo was caught by surprise.

Gou looked up to find the older man staring at him.

“Oh really! And just how can you tell, do you have some weird super sense or what?” Milo said now slightly irritated at the young kid.

Not even affected by Milo's tone of voice Gou answered:

“I just can”

Milo couldn't help but to let out a chuckle at Gou's reply, “So,” he decided to ask, “does your mother like me?”

“Noo”

----

“I can't believe you Kai!” Hilary said frustrated and leaned back in her chair, “This morning you were jealous because of Charlie and now you jealous over Milo. You know, it's really none of your business…-”

“Just answer the question” Kai interrupted. Hilary snorted and crossed her arms indicating that she was pissed off with his behaviour.

“You want me to answer your question. FINE. I'll answer your question.” Hilary paused and picked up her glass with red wine and drank the last drops the glass contained. She putted down the glass forcefully and luckily it didn't break. She stared at Kai in an attempt to intimidate him, but without luck. “No” she said, “I'm not interested in Milo nor have I ever been! Besides Milo's ideal woman are supermodels and beautiful film stars”.

Kai nodded satisfied. This was good; Hilary hadn't given her heart to someone else, he glanced briefly at Milo who seemed to be in a discussion with his son.

Milo….

The only one Kai had to battle for Hilary's heart, didn't even have his feelings returned by Hilary.

Now I only have to make sure that she won't find another man to love. Kai thought satisfied to himself. And even if she does find one he will beintimidated to know she has a son with me, I'll make sure of that!

“That's all you have to say? A nod” Kai was quickly brought out of his thoughts by Hilary's voice.

“Hnn” he responded. Hilary let out a frustrated sigh.

“Why thank you your mighty highness” Hilary said sarcastically.

She smiled when she saw Milo returning with Gou, but frowned when they both appeared with a sour expression. Gou walked instantly to her and placed his hands and face in her lap.

“Milo is a big fat liar” he managed to mumble out. Hilary threw Milo a confused look as he sat down again.

“What do you mean Gou?”

Gou looked up at the sound of his father's voice; it was Kai who had asked the question.

“He told me that the fishes were swimming away from me because they hate me”

“Milo!” Hilary said enrage, “How dare you say such a horrible thing to Gou”.

“Well, he asked for it…-” Milo tried to defend himself.

“How can a three- year-old `ask for it'” Kai interrupted coolly. Milo shivered at the looks he was getting from him.

“I had enough!” Hilary said and stood up taking Gou by the hand, she didn't want to spend any second longer with Milo McKinney. She looked at Kai, “Could you give us a ride home?” she asked.

Kai kept his glare at Milo while answering “Sure”. He stood up and followed Hilary and Gou out.

Back at the table Milo was left alone. He closed his eyes and banged his head down into the table.

“Fuck” he muttered to himself, “Can I be more stupid”

----

Both Hilary and Kai had been quiet during the ride and Gou had fallen asleep in the backseat. Finally he pulled by the building where Hilary and Gou lived. Hilary turned to Kai.

“Thank you…for the ride” Hilary said a bit nervous, she didn't like to be so close to Kai without some else around. She looked back at the sleeping Gou, “Ummm, do you think you could carry him inside…it's a bit difficult both to carry him and unlock the do…-” before she could finish Kai was already on his way out of the car. “All right I guess you will” Hilary mumbled to herself.

She too stepped out of the car and took the keys out of her purse. Kai was already holding the sleeping Gou in his arms. They stepped inside the building and walked towards her-and Gou's apartment.

She opened the door quietly trying not to wake the presumable sleeping Charlie. She motioned for Kai to follow her. They walked into Gou's bedroom and Kai laid him down on the bed.

“Help me get his clothes off” Hilary whispered to Kai. The parents undressed their son and Hilary quickly found Gou's pyjamas and put it on him. They tugged him under the covers and just when they were about to leave Gou's eyes flicked open.

“Papa?” said the small child voice, “are yu' going to leave?” Kai sat down on Gou's bed and let his hand brush through his son's slate hair.

“No I'm not going to leave.” He answered gently “I'll see you soon, now be a good boy and go back to sleep”. Gou smiled and closed his eyes. Kai continued to stare at him before leaning over and placing a gentle kiss on his forehead, he stood up and walked out of his son's room closing the door behind him.

“That was sweet of you” Hilary said when he had closed the door. Kai just nodded and walked towards the door. He was standing in the doorframe when Hilary stopped him.

“Kai wait” She said and he turned around, she gazed up at him with her big beautiful ruby eyes “Promise me you won't break his heart” She said almost in a whisper.

“I don't plan to” he answered short. Hilary smiled at his answer and leaned up and placed a small kiss on his cheek.

“Thank you for tonight” Hilary said and closed the door.

Kai stood staring at the closed door for what to him seemed like hours. His hand reached up to touch the small place she had kiss him.

Kai smiled.

Hilary had kissed him. All right it might only have been on the cheek, but it had been a kiss nonetheless.

Kai drove home as a satisfied man.

I will have you back in my life Hilary, no matter what! He vowed to himself.
