#Sohm a Estate#
--
Crying was heard by Akito. It awoke him from his dreamless sleep. He arose from his futon and looked around for the source of crying. To Akito, it sounded like it was coming from the gardens. He walked over to the shoji door, still having a slight fever.
-
He opened the door, it was a little chilly, and looked around for a few seconds before seeing a moving bundle of dirty cloth. It was trying to grab something in the sky that wasn’t there. To Akito it looked like arms, and so, ignoring the order to stay in bed, went to see what the thing was. It was a young infant that was injured from being tossed over the wall (?) that surrounds the Sohma estate. Akito sneered at t and was going to walk away, before deciding to al least see if raising it was of any use.
-
The infants skin had a very light tint of blue, so it was out here for an hour to four hours. It sniffled every so once in a while, and snuggled into Akito’s body heat. A tear or two rolled down its cheeks, but other wise, it was calming down. Akito walked back inside leaving the shoji open for the white doves to get inside to drink from the bamboo pot. He sat down on his futon and examined the infant.
-
The infants eyes went from the blue all babies are born with to a silvery-white. It’s hair, from what Akito could tell, was a blue-ish color. The infant was about three to five months old. It looked up at Akito with such hope, that he felt he would have to look away from it. It gurgled up at him, them its mouth broke into a grin.
-
Akito looked down at it with surprise in his eyes at the infant. Also, from what he could tell, the infant resemble a boy and most likely was; but he wasn’t going to check.
“What am I going to do with you?” Akito asked no one in particular. The infant boy only gurgled again and smiled even more. He studied the infant before getting it up and setting the boy on the other side of the room.
-
Akito was half way back to his futon, before the infant started crying again. It was wearing down his resistance to care for the infant boy. Akito stopped, and his bangs covered his eyes before he started shaking slightly. He turned around and went back over to the infant and bent over it, hands on either side of it and his head bent looking at the infant.
-
The infant looked up and started reaching for Akito. Akito put one of his fingers in the baby’s hand, causing the young boy to gurgle and smile. He picked up the baby and sat down with it near the open shoji door this time, instead of sitting on his futon. A white dove flew over and landed on Akito’s hand, attracting the infant’s attention. It made a cooing sound and the bird was slightly startled, before flying past the duo and over to the bamboo pot.
-
“Perhaps, I’ll raise you. You will be my heir, should this cure not be broken and a new core isn’t born yet. And, until then, you will have to be the Head of the Sohma family.” Akito said to the infant and himself. The infant looked up at Akito, giving him his short attention span.
‘Yes that is what I’ll do. Raise him and make him the Head of the family should I die, before the curse if lifted.’ Akito thought as an after thought. There was one problem though, how was he to feed the infant if he was a man? Sooner or later, the boy will be getting hungry and would need to breast-feed.
-
This was a dilemma, but it would have to wait, for Akito had to name the infant.
“I shall name you…Hosyu (hoh-syu).” Akito said calmly to the newly-named ‘Hosyu’. To Akito, it was a good name, the infant was conservative. The dirty blanket was cover all of the infant, except for his eyes and some of the blue-ish hair of his. Hosyu needed a bath, so Akito went to the sink in the bathroom and washed Hosyu up; but sadly, had to redress him in his dirty clothes and blanket.
-
When Hatori came in, he was surprised that Akito had an infant with him. It barely disturbed, but it still disturbed, Hatori that Akito had an infant with him.
“Do not tell any one that I have an infant, Hatori.” ordered Akito. Hatori nodded at the order and kept his lips sealed. He soon left, saying to Akito that he should stay in bed a day or two more to get rid of the fever.

#Random Place#
--
The dunce -I mean- intelligent boy Hojo dropped a slip of paper that had Kagome’s phone number on it and that she will baby-sit for any one that called. Sadly, the slip of paper was a year or two old. The wind picked up and the paper went away with the wind. Hojo almost started crying at loosing her phone number. He went home with a heavy heart.
------
--
#Sohma Estate#
--
The slip of paper went all the way to the Sohma estate and miraculously went under the shoji door that Hatori closed when he left the room earlier and landed right by Akito. Akito looked at it unconcerned at first, but when he saw the word baby-sit; Akito picked up the piece of paper and looked it over. Perhaps, this Kagome could help him with Hosyu. He’d have to keep the Sohma Family secret a secret from her, though. If she could help him, maybe she could even be trusted with the Sohma Family secret.
-
Akito had Hatori come to his room, again. When he arrived, Akito gave him the slip of paper and was instructed to call and ask for Kagome Higurashi. Apparently, Akito changed his mind on telling no one about him having an infant in his care. Hatori left the room to call the number, and couldn’t help worrying about this person. It was unusual that Akito would have a complete stranger over.
------
--
#Higurashi Shrine#
--
The phone rang at the Higurashi Shrine. Kagome’s grandfather, the only one in the room at the time, answered.
“Hello?” he asked.
“Is a Kagome Higurashi available at all?” asked the other person on the phone.
“Yes, hold on.” he added suspiciously.
-
He put the phone down and went to retrieve his granddaughter. She was in her room, looking out the window. Kagome looked over and was told someone wanted to talk to her. She may be depressed, but she wasn’t rude enough to not take a phone call. She went down stairs and picked up the phone that was set down by the receiver by her grandfather.
-
“Hello?” Kagome asked quietly.
“Do you do baby-sitting? Someone I know needs a baby-sitter.” asked the person on the other line.
‘I haven’t done baby-sitting for a couple years. They must’ve found an old slip of paper saying I did. No use being rude.’ she thought.
“Yes I do. And may I ask who this person is?” Kagome asked the man.
“You may. He’s the Head of the family. You’ll find out his name, later. Now may I have your address and when you intend to start?” he asked
-
“Of coarse. I live on…. (1) When would you suggest I start, though?” Kagome responded, telling him her address.
“I suggest you start working today, if that’s okay. The Head of the family doesn’t have experience raising children. I’ll pick you up in an hour.” the man said, then the line went dead. Kagome hung the phone up and left to get ready. She still had baby supplies from when she did baby-sit, even left over baby formula that didn‘t expire for another few years. It took her half an hour to get set; black clothes, baby items, and all.
-
Now she was waiting for the man to pick her up. Kagome brought a change of clothes in case she had to stay over, better safe than sorry. Her black lipstick shone in the living room light. The remain half hour went by slowly for Kagome and her silver eye shadow was starting to fade from all the times she blinked. When the half hour was over, a knock on the door announced the man arrived.
-
Kagome answered the door with her backpack on her back and her baby items in a shoulder bag. The man looked to be twenty-seven and half of his face was hidden by his brown hair. He introduced himself as Hatori and allowed her to exit the house. She followed him to this car that was parked at the bottom of the Shrine stairs. Kagome sat in the back and Hatori in the driver’s seat.
-
“Why do you have a backpack?” asked Hatori.
“I didn’t know if I was going to have to stay the night or not.” answered Kagome, with a voice void of emotion. Hatori nodded, accepting the answer. The rest of the drive was silent. Hatori stopped at a Japanese-styled house with other inside the wall surrounding the main house.
-
Both Hatori and Kagome took off their shoes at the porch and walked in their socks where Akito and Hosyu, though Hatori and Kagome didn’t know that, was. They walked in silence, like the car ride, except there was no question and answer. They came to a shoji door, and Hatori held it open for Kagome ands closed it behind her when she entered. Kagome took in the room, another shoji door that open to the back of the property. Sitting on a futon, in the middle of the room, was the Head of the family; the one she was baby-sitting for.

M.S.: Long chapter. No lyrics. Amazing.
Akito: You finally have Kagome meet me.
M.S.: Yup! Either you, Yuki, or both of you are best for Kagome! ^^
Yuki: -Blinks At M.S., Confused-
Akito: -Same Thing-
Kagome & Ayame (FB one): R&R!
