She is beautiful. Blonde curls covering the sides and a bit of her round face, cherry red lips turned into a puckered kiss, pug nose shaped just so, but the most distinguishing thing of all are the huge green eyes in her head. Lovely.
Its just too bad that you have to be disfigured. Thinks a child as his tiny hand squeezes the lifeless doll in his grasp. But you'll make a much better toy when you're that way... you'll bring pain that way instead of pleasure. You'll make them leave me alone. Turning his head he locates a box cutter that he brought upstairs with him, taking it into his right hand he carves the large green eyes from the dolls head, smirking at the sound of them bouncing to the floor with a clack clack. Next the young boy did the nose, cutting it clean off with a little force in his severing since the make of the doll is top notch. The boy merely split the lip of the doll as he wanted to quickly move onto the next phase of his plan.
The box cutter now beside him on the bed, he grabs a lighter that he swiped from his fathers desk. Giving it a good flick the flame came to life before him. The blind doll's eye sockets stare blankly at the flame. Pressing it to the sockets the wax took a moment to catch before it lit up melting the plastic flesh around the hole. Nodding, he smiles as a long strand of wax dripped down freezing in place at the bottom of the socket. Once he was done with his work, the once beautiful doll looked completely disgusting. Now for the string.
Getting up from the bed, he caught a glimpse of his reflection in the mirror on his closet door, its hung low because of his short height. He looks wide awake though the dark rings around his frost green eyes say otherwise. Opening the door, he rifles through the dirty clothes on his closet floor producing a string that he found at school that day. Tying it around the dolls neck, the young boy then walks out of his room and into his sisters. Boy was she gonna be surprised when she finds her favorite doll hung in her closet, and boy won't she be scared when said doll drops into her face before she knows its coming.
Temari will never pick on me again. He declares mentally to no one. Grabbing a small chair that she keeps in front of her vanity mirror, the young boy tapes the empty end of the string to the top of the door which he almost couldn't reach then he put the doll atop the closet shelf. The moment the door opens the doll will come flying from the shelf. Perfect.
Leaving the room, he wonders if there's anything his brother likes more than him. Maybe I should pay his room a visit as well. He starts down the hall, but a quick glance in his room brings him there instead. His favorite bear is sitting on his bed looking rather lonely in the boys opinion. Picking it up, he smiles at it. He doesn't care that he's thirteen and too old for toys, his sister plays with dolls still, and she's 15!
"Do you want your coveralls? I have them in my closet." Opening the door, he fishes through his things for the bears tiny stolen doll clothes that happen to fit the stuffed toy perfectly. Once he found them, he held them into the slowly diming light. Quirking a hairless brow he turns around wondering what could be staunching the light in the room. His eyes widen before................

I can not wait to c you Mr. Gai and Mr. Kakashi.
When do you think they will let us meet?
I feel like I have been waiting for ever.
Maybe you could come and surprize me. ^_^
with love,
rock lee
Gai must have looked at the young boys note a hundred times- a thousand according to his partner Kakashi, who is driving the car right now since his better half is occupied with the small slip of paper in his hand from years ago when they had been writing to a young boy they planned to adopt. It's been nine years since then and the courts finally agreed to let the gay couple adopt a son and Gai, being a bit like a woman with her first child on the way, refused to pay attention to anything else but this day when he will have a kid of his own, including the very busy road that the two of them are on.
"Gai, I realize that you're about to drop dead with excitement at any moment," says Kakashi with a cool but serious roll of tone. "But could we at least wait until we've seen the child in person before you kill the both of us."
Not taking the wheel from the man who is clearly just supposed to be the passanger, Gai tears up over the slip of paper in his hands. "But Kakashi the excitement is too much for me to bare," his proud and often dramatizing words spilled out of him along with a stream of tears that had been playing leap frog with the mans lower eye lids since they left the apartment. "This will be our first son! I can barely keep myself alert to anything other than the moment where I run across the parking lot, into the adoption building and over to my Lee."
Not bothering to turn his lovers my into an our Kakashi started to wonder, as he listened to the driver going on about how perfect the boy wrote only being 4 years old at the time, and how much he must have grown since the last time they wrote to him- never once allowed to see a picture- go figure on that one, why the heck he let the man drive in the first place. Gai cut himself shaving that morning while looking at a note the young boy wrote to them at age seven! It was as if all morning all the man could do was go back on this age and that until it got to the one that started it all.
"Aaahhh days will be filled with getting him ready for school," Gai goes on "while nights are filled with manly wrestles as we tell each other how the others day had gone."
"Sounds great." He jerks the wheel at the next corner right. "Maybe his new family will do that while telling him how his former family died in a car accident." The car shifted left a bit to avoid another car coming in the opposite direction. This is beginning to be too much; if Gai didn't have his foot on the gas Kakashi would have stopped the car and switched places with him ages ago. But all he can do is steer the small gray car, and hope that no red lights come up while his lamenting lover leaks M&M tears over their soon to be son Rock Lee.
It was funny how it all started; one morning the two former army Generals now with respective new jobs, Kakashi as a barber and Gai a personal trainer, found themselves looking out the window as they ate their breakfast spotting a group of school kids walking to the bus stop. Gai was the first to say that it would be interesting to have a child. Kakashi chimed in with a one liner of "that will never happen". As the idea of two gay men, who live together could never own a child- it's blasphame! But once Gai made up his mind about the idea of a kid coming to life even Kakashi had to admit it would be nice to have someone around to teach and maybe learn from in someways. So the two agreed that this was something they wanted to do and damn it they would get it done. When applying, Gai went alone and picked out a child. The agency women smiled at him and wished him all the happiness with his new child but they asked for his records, which Gai didn't have at the time so he had to come back. When returning he brought Kakashi with him and the adoption people did more than look at them cross eyed which made them feel like yesterdays hope was lost.
But they did let him continue to write to Lee so not all hope was lost, and Gai took it as a challenge to himself and set out to find a lawyer that would help the couple get their child. Before they knew it court dates were set up and people flocked from all over Japan to hear the trail.
Kakashi was surprised at how masterfully his partner attacked the agency. Telling the court that it would be more of a crime to have one less child be helped just because of the adoptives principals and lifestyle and other such things about the situation that He himself could have thought of but felt no need to because Gai handled it all like a pro anyway. It took time, a lot of time and their young four year old child grew into a thirteen year old young teen.
Rock Lee, a young boy picked out by name and story, never knew his parents, found outside of the building has been writing letters to this family since. Lee never knew about the situation with the law and such. He just knew that the adoption center kept saying that he should chose a different family to live with. But Lee had fallen in love with Gai from his letters, loving the way the man spoke and all the promises; he said he would give him love, and at four that's all you need to know. A child untainted by other peoples morals wouldn't mind being the child of two men. He was perfect.
"Maaan I already love this kid rotten." Cooed Gai. Clutching the wheel finally, he glanced at his partner as if he were insane or something. "Kakashi this is no time to be fooling around," he shakes a stern finger "we're picking up our son." Turning the car left; Gai had to laugh at the look on his lovers face, a mix of relief and something close to being used to how the driver acts.
"Just enthralled with your, unpredictable, driving skills." Replies the gray haired male. Kakashi can be so cool sometimes with his youthful gestures using just the one eye and brow that is showing on his face. Kakashi had a nasty accident when out on the battle field and the scar is none too pretty. So the man chose to cover it up with a black mask that covers both the scar on the lower half of his face and the one over his eye. The former general does it, not because he's vain or anything, but simply because it left the world open to make it up for themselves. Always being so cool.
The adoption center is just a stone throw away now and Kakashi kept shooting glances to his right making sure Gai didn't have another of his outburst and let go of the wheel.
....................
"My Lee!" Gai cooed, snatching the lankey child into his arms before Lee even knew it was coming.
"Otousan Gai!" He gripped the man around his shoulders with enough fierceness to make the very man he's hugging jealous.
"My Lee!!!!"
"Otousan!!!!"
Kakashi looked from one to the other, both males have their eyes closed while gripping the other within their arms, cheeks being nuzzled together like they planned to start a fire and the two continued to shout at one another, at least they probably would have if Kakashi didn't clear his throat to make them stop.
"Well, now that introductions are over, how about we leave." He scratched the back of his head with one hand and with his free hand he reaches into his pocket pulling something free letting it dangle once he got it out. "By the way, this is a little present we got you." Opening his eyes to see the dropping of a chain necklace, face clear to view since they got here, Kakashi is taken aback for a second looking at the childs appearance. Large eyes with an almost invisible expression in them, round face, but the most distinguishing thing to Kakashi is the eyebrows which caused him to ask. "Anything you wanna tell me Gai?"
"Huh?" Looking the boy over, Gai's eyes began to water. "This is.... another miracle!"
Kakashi had to hear this one. Grabbing Lee's small bag filled with what his second father assumes is clothing and a small few personal items judging by the size of the bag, he steers Lee to the dark blue car with the hand holding onto the offered necklace. Gai could walk home if he really wanted to stay back there and talk.
"Trully all of our son's wishes to be with us have given him the looks of myself," the man boasted. "My eyes as a dewy child scream genius in this boys face. My proud eyebrows give his face a true masculinety you don't see in the boys of today..."
"As I was saying before, we got you a present." He whispered to the child who is still listening to his other father, he passes a bubble chained necklace to the boy. Lee broke into a huge grin that said I'm not just smiling with my face but my whole soul is ablaze with glee.
"Tags?!"
"Yes. Gai and I used to be generals in the army. We got the tag made out for you personally." Explains the male dropping the bag into the back seat of the car.
"Hatake 'Rock' Lee." His eyes whelled with tears.
"Do you like it." He smiled down at him with his eye alone.
"Yes. Chichioya Kakashi."
Father? Hm. Not only is the boy almost the spitting image of Gai, he also seems to have inheritade his overly dramatic traits. Wonder what he's been writing in those letters of his? Kakashi had written a few himself but not as many as Gai had. It is nice to hear him calling us Father and Dad so quickly though. Leaves any awkwardness out of the relationship. Pulling the door open for his son, he isn't surprised to see Gai climb into the back as well. Hn. At least with me driving we'll get home before the next day.
And by the time Gai's rant got to the part about how his youth would soon explode someday when Lee gets married he will experience the joy he is now when he has his first kid on the way, they arrive at their small apartment in the center of the city.
The car pulls into an empty place in the multi-car garage. The family climbed out of it, closing the doors in almost unison before they walk to the front doors of the building. Lee's large eyes look the entirety of the building up and down in awe before his attention is taken to the doors as he's ushered in from a touch on the shoulder from Kakashi. The two men start down the hall while Lee, unseeing their movement, goes toward the open elevator.
Clearing his throat, Kakashi says. "Yo Lee, planning on living alone?" Gai snickered a bit at how innocent the child is. "We live on the first floor."
Turning, he blushed as he joined their sides. "Sorry. I was just looking forward to the elevator ride, I've never been on one before."
"There will be plenty of time to ride the elevator once you're situated." Pushing the door open the man Lee refers to as father steps inside.
Holding out an arm for his new son to walk into, Gai walks inside with him. "I like riding in the elevator too, that's why I always pay the rent because the landlord lives on the top floor." Lee nods to what his Dad is telling him. "You can come with me when I pay it this weekend."
That seemed to brighten the young boys mood more than it already was as he now turns his head to take in his new home. Mouth dropping into a perfect 'O' shape, he gapes. "Huwaahhh. This place is so big!"
"Says a sheltered life." Kakashi is heard from somewhere in the small place.
"Yup. It is huge," chimes Gai, hands on his hips looking the place over as though it's his first time there as well. "We have two bedrooms. Yours used to be my weight room, but we moved them into storage so that you can have it."
"I get a room to myself." It was more of a statement than a question. He walked to where he had heard Kakashi speaking. The room itself couldn't hold more than maybe five people comfortably, but to Lee it looked like a palace. At the home he shared a room with several people, bed too! and a lot of the time some kids couldn't hold their bladders and others kicked in their sleep, some of them even drool on you! But little by little the kids began to dwindle as they were adopted until the kids in the room were down to eight instead of 17- not that all of them shared that room, he meant in the house as a whole. Most people that walk in ready to adopt a child took one look at him and laughed, he never understood why but one of the kids told him that it was because of his goofy looking eyes and brows. Lee wondered what was wrong with his eyes? At four years old, you look like you and you're happy. So it made no sense that he wasn't chosen just because of his facial features. But one month, just before he hit five, a letter was given to him from a man named Maito Gai and he fell in love.
The rest is kind of history because he's here now with his new family which happens to consist of two males rather than a man and woman like other children walked away with, or a single man or a single woman. Lee didn't mind at all, he loved the idea of having two fathers when Gai told him about Kakashi, he even got letters from him as well!
The two watch as the boy parades around the room asking them about hanging posters on the wall, or maybe painting it a certain color, he even wanted to know if he could put his bed anywhere he wanted. Gai laughed, replying 'sure!' to every question but Kakashi had to stop him there.
"About the painting part," he hoped to cease their chattering and jumping about, more than glad that they lived on the first floor now then ever. "Since we live in an apartment which is someone elses home, you may want to keep the walls white."
"Agreed." Lee said as though they were thinking up colors and white just seemed like a logical choice.
"But you can hang as many posters as you like."
"Can we go get some Otousan?"
"Let's get them right now!"
"Or we could wait until tomorrow since dinner is approaching." Always the voice of logic.
"Great idea. I'll prepare us a meal that you won't forget." Trotting from the room Gai heads for the kitchen, heart and soul on fire.
"Well, if you ever decide that you want to switch families now is the time."
Laughing, Lee exits the room after his father. "Is it really that bad?"
Scratching the back of his head, not wanting to hurt his lovers reputation but he didn't want to lie to his new son. "Lets just say that the bad taste in the back of the foods mouth," he says on behalf of the food. "Is gonna be the bad taste in the back of our mouths."
Lee makes a face at that.
"If we're lucky, he'll burn it and we can order pizza."
"Okay." He perked back up again.
Kakashi watched the boy join his dad in the kitchen and he wondered what he was like when they first began to write to him. Would he accept all of this as easily as he is now? It was hard to say, but Kakashi has never met anyone as geared up as this boy and he's truly happy that his partner decided that it would be nice to have a child- even if his looks creep him out a bit. "He's a hair cut away from Gai's double." He murmurs to no one joining his family in the kitchen.
The family had a rather interesting dinner, afterwards they went into the tiny living room and watched telvision in the back of Lee's chattering about the orphange, he even showed them a picture book of himself as a child. He had quite a head of hair! Long braid going down his back, like a mini martial artist- you know those little old guys in fight films that usually kick the most butt. Gai swooned over all of it, Kakashi was happy to hear about the boys life and Lee was glad to have a real family to share all of his thoughts with. When he turned in to bed, he blessed them both and the people at the agency- if he only knew what his fathers went through because of them, and then he finally turned in. Life is going to be great from now on. He can't wait to start school!
