Sugar Rush11

Leon wanted the world to melt away. To just allow him to lay in bed and hold on to D. What, Leon wondered; kind of dreams drove D to tears each night. It had been a week, a long, long week with D clamming up and refusing to speak to anyone. He was his usual cold, distant self, and yet; Leon frowned wishing for just one smile. Sofu worried over this. He explained to Leon that it was the same all those years ago. D would not speak much then either. Leon suspected that the only reason D continued to eat was for the child he carried. Their child. Leon was now tremendously grateful for that child. D claimed, when he bothered to speak in more than one syllable words, that nothing was wrong. Yet every night with out fail, he sobbed in his sleep.

The moon shone on D's pale face scrunched up in a frown as tears left unmarked trails down his baby soft cheeks. Leon held him close wishing he could go and slay whatever demons plagued D, even while he slept. Leon prayed for dawn, for he could not bear to see D so tormented and there was nothing he could do about it. Sofu had been running the shop full time now insisting that D recuperate. Leon was thankful to the old Kami, at one point he had feared him, but now after witnessing his careful care of D and Princess Andy as well as Lord D. Leon sighed, he guessed you never really knew a person.

Clarisande had to return to Arcadia and treat Kagetsuya. His wings were better treated in their climate, near their king she said. Leon felt D stir and looked down into shinning eyes bright with tears. “You are awake still?” D said softly. He sat up and turned away from Leon wiping his face on the long sleeve of his sleeping robe. Something else new to their sleeping arrangements, Leon frowned.

“Please D; I can't stand seeing you like this…” Leon began; D looked afraid, then unbearably sad before he left the bed. Leon sighed and watched as D padded silent from the room. Leon then frowned; this had gone on long enough. It was not healthy, not for D, not for him, not for the children and animals, it ended tonight. Leon stood from the bed and followed D.

It had become increasingly easier to find his way in the maze of corridors in the back of the pet shop. He found D sitting in a large garden staring unseeing up at the sky. “If I give voice to my dreams, I fear they will come true and…” D sighed and said to Leon without turning around. “If what they mean is true… I fear Leon, that Hama- still lives. He visit's my dreams; he shows me what he did to my brother, what he wants to do to me. Sometimes I swear I can feel him touching me.” Leon dropped to his knees beside D and pulled him into his arms. Leon was shocked by the chill to D's skin and the shivers that wracked his small frame.

“Don't worry baby, I swear I'll die before I ever let that bastard near you again.” Leon assured D and was surprised when his statements did not reassure D but caused his tears to flow anew.

“That is what I fear the most." D said and gulped. He placed a fine boned hand on his tummy, "If I do pass on while delivering…” D began.

“You won't,” Leon said stubbornly refusing to consider the possibility.

“If I do, our child will need at least one parent. If Hama- takes you and I expire…” D laid his head on Leon's sturdy shoulder.

“Then we'll make sure he doesn't get me and your father seems determined to keep his promise to see that you live. Now come back to bed. And if you dream, take me with you; I'll slay the demons.” Leon promised.

"I have done a fine job of slaying my own demons, until now." D said, Leon smirked and kissed him deeply. D readily opened his mouth and accepted Leon's questing tongue, meeting it with his own. Leon backed away and looked deeply into D's eyes, hoping that the dark shadows that had haunted his eyes would be forever gone. A cloud moved away from the moon and Leon could see D clearly. He was not smiling, but he looked calm. D sighed and held tight to Leon as he was picked up and carried back to bed. Leon frowned; D was so thin he felt lighter than usual. Weren't pregnant people supposed to get fat?

As the sun rose Leon looked down to witness a sight he had longed for. D lay sleeping peacefully cradled in his arms. The grip of D's hand on his arm was perhaps a bit tight, but Leon did not care. He slid beneath the covers and pulled D closer. Leon pressed a kiss to D's forehead and closed his eyes. He was awakened not less than an hour later by a racket down the hall.

“I will not!” came a raised voice Leon recognized as Lord D. “They are both my patients and I have been in bed long enough.”

“There is still a hole in your side or did you forget that?” Ryo said reasonably. Leon opened his door and peeked into the hallway. He could not help but smile as he witnessed Lord D standing wearing a loosely tied robe with a look of determination on his face. Ryo and JJ stood blocking his way.

“Please D-Chan, return to bed, you are paler than the wall behind you and you look tired.” JJ said placing his hands on Lord D's and trying to turn him back into his room. Leon raised a brow at J.J.'s choice of name for Lord D. 'D-Chan?' Come to think of it, Leon mused; JJ had spent an awful lot of time at the shop, so much so that the chief had assigned him to guard it as well. He felt D's slight form beside him and looked to see a smile on his face. The first smile, it always startled Leon to see that beautiful smile. He leaned down and captured D's lips with his own. D blushed and stepped away.

“Father,” D chided and strode forward still smiling his most charming smile. It was the same smile that used to make Leon want to smack him. The smile that now promised Leon all sorts of delightful secrets. Ryo looked at him amazed at the change and smiled at Leon. “You are being a naughty patient, now please go to bed.”

“You can not tell me what to do,” Lord D said mulishly.

“But I can,” The small group turned and gasped. D dipped into a bow, Leon, JJ, and Ryo followed suit as the High King of Arcadia strolled into the hallway. JJ stared in awe at the man that, he wore white long pants and a knee length shirt. JJ stared at his feet bemused. What kind of king walked around bare foot? Lord D would have said more but felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked up at Sofu and noted the angry lines about his tight mouth.

Lord D inclined his head to acknowledge his king “And what is it you would have me do your majesty?”

“I'll give you three guesses and you'd be right on each one.” King Zarro said. “I trust Andromache is not giving you this much trouble.” He asked Sofu who shook his head.

“The lady is as gracious as ever. In her fourth month you know, she and the child are extremely healthy I examined her yesterday.” Sofu said. “My only difficult patient happens to be my son. I taught him what he knows, sent him to the same medical school that I attended and yet he does not trust his patients to my care for a while, and will not listen to my instructions for his own recuperation. Children these days…” Sofu said pointedly with a long suffering sigh. He looked at Lord D then at his room. Lord D accepted J.J.'s aid and leaned heavily upon him as he was helped back to his room. “If even one stitch has opened I will lengthen your bed rest for an extra week just to be contrary see if I don't.” Sofu growled as he settled Lord D in bed.

“And I will have her Majesty come to sit with you to make sure you don't budge.” King Zarro tossed in as he entered the room and sat in the chair beside the bed that was usually occupied by JJ.

“To what do I owe the extreme honor of this visit?” Lord D asked in a surly tone. He accepted the cup of tea Count D carried in to him. “You are well?” Lord D asked. D smiled and nodded. D allowed a hand to trail over Leon's before he went to see that the children were dressed and ready for school.

“Yes…?” Lord D said when King Zarro did nothing more than stare at him

“I have been thinking,” Zarro said. Lord D had to bite his tongue extremely hard to keep his comments at bay. He had lost the right long ago to banter freely with his king. But what friends they used to be. Lord D sighed sad that the past had ruined the future. “I stripped you of your rights because of your brash behavior. I now realize that the act itself was perhaps brash on my part.”

“You do not need to apologize. At the time, I surely would have killed my son, and come to know the truth too late. I could not live with such regrets.” Lord D said with a deep shame that permeated the room. “I should thank you for saving his life; for saving him from me.”

“And yet you entered that trap knowing full well that you would not be released willingly, knowing what would happen to you. You protected your child with your life, with your body.” Lord D blushed under the King's steady gaze. “Child,” Zarro said without turning and yet knowing instinctively that D had returned to the room. He turned as D walked forward. Zarro took his hand and studied his face. He looked deep into D's eyes. “Do you accept your father?' He asked, still holding onto D's hand.

D frowned; his perplexity clear for all to see, “of course,” he said.

Zarro smiled and took Lord D's hand. “And do you accept your son?”

Lord D looked at his father who nodded relinquishing his previous paternal rights to D. “Yes your majesty.” Lord D paused and reached for D's hand. “I do offer my apologies to you child for ever raising my hand to you.” D shook his head at his father to show he bore no hard feelings. “Thank you so much your majesty, for correcting my mistake. I threw away my child foolishly and you have restored him to me.” Lord D wished he could go into a full Jol, but knew that if he tried to move his father, JJ, Leon, D and the king would tie him to the bed.

D smiled and patted his father's hand. “I will prepare breakfast.” He announced to the room. Zarro was puzzled, he had heard from Nestoir that the shop feared D's continued ennui, and now to look at him, Zarro would say he was his usual enigmatic self. “Will you be joining us Majesty?”

“Yes thank you, I would like to visit with your father for a while, and then I will see my High Princess.” Zarro said and settled back into the chair. JJ gave him a curious look before he turned to leave the room.

“I'll go and visit my grandmother for a while.” JJ said and stalked away. Lord D called his name. JJ turned around and Lord D smiled beautifully.

“You will return?” He asked. JJ nodded and sighed with relief before he left the pet shop.

“You are toying with a mortal?” Zarro asked with a raised brow.

“I do not toy with him; he is a friend, nothing more. I leave the rest to the young; they seem to enjoy such folly.” Lord D pulled his blankets around him and refused to meet the king's gaze.

Ryo sighed in relief as Dee and Jill showed up to take the second watch. Ryo headed to bed. Dee wiggled his brows and started to follow. Jill caught him by his neck tie and held firm. Ryo grinned and stuck out his tongue at Dee. He went to their spare bedroom laughing on the outside but wishing Dee could have joined him.

-So Bikky, who do you think stole D- Bikky frowned into his milk carton and looked across the lunch table at Chris. “I don't know that squirt,” Bikky said thoughtfully. “The old folks won't tell us nothin'. But it must have been someone important if all the Arcadians were called to help. Count D's grandpa came all the way here from Chicago and you know he was doing something important there with the royalty too.”

“I hope D has a boy. That way when I grow up and have a girl, they can get married.” Carol said. Bikky stared at her completely lost to her sudden change of subject until he saw Edmund Randolph standing near their table talking with a group of boys. The boys were talking loud purposefully taunting him.

“Yeah, well I heard that not only did you apologize, you did a book report for him about some dead guy.” The head bully jeered. “You can't be our friend any more because you wimped out.” The other guy shoved Edmund from his feet and stood over him. It had taken them months to gang up on him, and yet now that they had, Edmund was not looking forward to the outcome. “Bad enough you let that monkey boy beat you, but you apologized for insulting a fagot.”

“You don't know what you're talking about,” Edmund said and got to his feet. “That word should not be said, it's cruel, and hateful, it can kill.” Edmund repeated D's sentiments and tried to still his bottom lip from quivering. The things he had discovered while doing his book report had left him feeling such shame at his own actions that he had cried in his mom's lap for hours.

“Awwww, is the wittle baby going to cry? Such a wimp.” The bully jeered.

“Nah,” Bikky said and stood up beside Edmund. “The true wimp is all of you who have to gang up on him. He took me on one on one that took courage. Besides, the report was for a princess. You don't say no to a princess.” Bikky did not knowing why he stood up for the kid, but it seemed wrong somehow not to. Even though Edmund had taunted them and made Chris cry and insulted all the people he cared about. Bikky sighed he felt that Ryo would have done the same.

“What the hell do you know?” The taller kid asked. “I hear you live with two of them and your real parents threw you out cause you got blond hair.Or are they dead, did they die of shame cuase you're like the two who took you in?"

Before Bikky could say anything a small blond blur attacked the boy. The boy started yelling and Bikky stared in awe as Chris lashed out and punched, kicked and bit the little boy. Bikky felt as if he was watching T-Chan rip into Leon. The other boys made to attack Chris and Bikky stood firm in front of them until a teacher came forward and broke up the fight. The Principal sighed kids could be so cruel, he thought and headed to the office to call the parents of all the kids involved.

SEE YOU AGAIN

Author's Note Hey guys, just thought I would lighten the mood before I really got into stuff here. (heh heh, the fun of pregnancy.) And aJol is a formal Asian bow. Krimzon hi, I know that the Characters are ooc much, but you have to keep in mind that the Alti -verse starts after Manga 8 and in the middle-ish of 9. His Hormones are dancing a jig with his pregnancy so he will be a bit out of it. I know all about book ten, bought it as soon as it hit the shelves. If you will notice, the “rapists” had not got very vary far because they could not get him out of his clothes. He grew sentimental over Chris departure and was determined not to leave behind his picture or have it damaged. Shuko cried and D wore the “mask”. Thanks for the CC though, I appreciate it.
