The Tenoh's
Chapter Four
---------------------------------------
“Come on sweetheart…I'll catch you.” A men with aqua hair stood in the swallow end of the swimming pool with his arms stretched out toward the edge of the pool were a very small Michiru stood.
“I don't know papa,” the young Michiru looked down at the crystal clear water then back at her father's trusting eyes.
“I wont let anything happen to you,” her father kindly smiled at his little girl. Michiru took a deep breathe closed her eyes and jumped into the water. Two strong arms caught her like promised.
“You can open your eyes now,” Michiru opened her eyes and two loving eyes looked back at her. “How was it?” A happy smile appeared on Michiru's face.
“Can I do that again?” The sound of laughter echoed through the empty swimming area, “Of course sweetheart.” Michiru's father carried her over to the edge of the pool and helped her out. Michiru stepped over the edge once she was out of the pool with her toes hanging over the side.
“Catch me papa!” her father stepped a little further away than before. This time Michiru didn't close her eyes, she jumped into the water again and two arms caught her. All of a sudden the lights slowly faded out leaving Michiru and her father in the dark, “Papa?” The two arms that held her close were suddenly gone.
“Papa!” Fear creped over Michiru's young form, all of a sudden the lights flickered back on. The pool had disappeared and was replace with a graveyard, in the middle of the graveyard stood at least a hundred people all dresses in black. Michiru slowly walked over to them and through the crowd, once through the crowd she noticed a coffin with a navy blue blanket with aqua around the edges lying on top of it with flowers. Michiru looked at the people around her, they didn't have no faces just a blank look on their faces. `Papa?' The sky turned pitch black and every thing disappeared, everything but the coffin. Michiru kneeled on the ground beside it and closed her eyes and rested her head against it, “Why papa, why?”
“Michiru?” A faint voice called for her, “Michiru…wake up sweetheart,” the voice got louder. Michiru opened her eyes; it was still dark but not as scary as it was. “Michi,” a warm hand held hers giving her warmth. She looked around her surroundings; she was in a room lying on a rather soft mattress, “Ruka?” A light was turned on and she could see Haruka's concerned look in her eyes. “Are you okay, love?” Haruka sat on the bed beside her and took her other hand in her own. Michiru sat up in the bed; Haruka brought her hand up to her face and wiped the tears away that were falling down her cheeks. Michiru looked into her loves eyes then closed her own eyes enjoying the gently touch of her hands.
“Was it another one of those dreams again?” Haruka gently brought Michiru into a hug; she rested Michiru's head on her shoulder and rubbed her back trying to comfort her. Michiru was unable to speak so she nodded her head yes.
“Haruka…is everything alright?” Haruka turned toward the door, her mother had stuck her head in the door because the light was on and it was the middle of the night.
“Everything is fine mom…she just had a bad dream.” Haruka's mother came into the room, `the poor girl, she looks frightened.' “Okay…well I'm going back to bed then, goodnight.” Deni-su left the room with a worried look on her face. Haruka looked down at her love in her arms, `Michi…' she tightened her grip around her and kissed the top of her head.
The sound of light breathing was heard throughout the room. Haruka listened for awhile; Michiru had fallen asleep in her arms. The grip around her waist made it impossible for her to leave the sleeping beauty and go to her own bed -not that she wanted to or anything. She gently moved Michiru and herself to a more comfortable position on the bed then turned off the light. “Good night my love,” she whispered before she fell into a light sleep.
-------------------------------------
The sound of birds chirped in through the bedroom window, the wonderful sounds of summer. The sun lit the room even though the curtains were still shut; two eyes opened then shut again out of annoyance of the brightness. A light moan came from one of the figures that lied on the bed, they opened there eyes again and glanced at the clock beside the bed 8:26 am. They looked down at the beauty in their arms and smiled, they gently moved there head and kissed the top of the beauty's head. Then slowly moved the beauty's head off there chest and brought it down onto the pillow; they stood from the bed and watched the sleeping form before them. Then they quietly made there way out of the room and down to the kitchen.
“You're up early?” Deni-su was just starting breakfast. Haruka made her way to the kitchen table and sat down, “Yeah…” she rubbed the crick out of her neck that was bothering her since she moved from the bed. She rested her head on the table and closed her eyes.
“You should go back to bed dear, you look tired.” Deni-su came to the table and rubbed her daughter's shoulders.
“No…I don't want to wake up Michiru.” Her mother stopped rubbing her shoulder's and kissed her on the head. “You have changed so much since the last time you were here…” Haruka opened her eyes and looked in her mother's eyes; she stood from her seat and embraced her mother so tenderly, it had been such a long time.
“I've missed you mom…” she whispered in her ear, “…so much.” Her mother tightened her grip around her daughter, “Me to sweetheart…me and your father.” She let go off her and looked into her eyes that have matured so much over the years. “We love you Haruka…don't ever forget that okay?” Haruka smiled lovingly at her mother and nodded her head.
“Good morning ladies.” Haruka's father entered the kitchen with a happy smile on his face.
“Morning dad…” Haruka sat down on the chair again with her father sitting beside her. “You're up early,” her father opened the newspaper that lied on the table. “Yeah I am.” She yawned as she took the sports section of the newspaper.
------------------------------------------
Upstairs in Haruka's old bedroom a moan came from the bed; two eyes opened and glanced at the clock, 10:10am. They stretched there arms in the air then sat up looking around the room for a certain blonde. The sound of a lawn mower drifted into the room and soon the smell of grass lingered by her nose. She stood and made her way to the bathroom to get dressed and fix her hair before going downstairs, she didn't think it would be appropriate to go downstairs with a bed head.
Fifteen minutes later a dressed Michiru emerged from the bathroom feeling refreshed and ready to start a new day. She made her way downstairs; the sound of talking came from the kitchen so that is where she headed.
“Well good morning Michiru…” Deni-su, Jim-u and Haruka all sat at the table drinking tea and coffee. “Good morning everyone,” she went and sat beside Haruka, “Are you hungry dear?” Deni-su stood and went over to the fridge and got out a plate full of pancakes before Michiru could say anything. “Yes…you don't have to do that…” Deni-su waved her hand and dismissed her comment, “don't worry about sweetheart.” Michiru smiled at Haruka's mother, she was so kind to her…she could see were Haruka got her kindness from. Not before long a plate was placed in front of her and she began to eat, “Thank you Deni-su…it's very tasty.”
“I'm surprised Jasutin isn't over here yet,” Haruka looked at the clock on the wall, 10:55.
“Hirari and Jasutin were going to take Videl for a walk first then he'd be over.” Jimu stood from his chair and went over to the counter to get another coffee. Haruka leaned back in her chair and put her hands behind her head, “Why don't you two go into the living room, it's more comfortable in there,” Deni-su took Michiru's now empty plate and brought it over to the sink. “Thank you for breakfast, it was delicious.” Michiru carried the syrup and her empty glass over to the counter.
“You're welcome dear.” Michiru went into the living room were Haruka already sat; she went over to the couch and sat beside her blonde friend.
“Ruka?” the blonde had her eyes closed with her head against the back of the couch. Haruka opened one of her eyes and looked at Michiru, “Hmm…”
“You look tired,” Michiru felt guilty after all it was her fault for keeping the blonde awake and not letting her go so she could sleep in her own bed.
“I'm a bit,” the blonde muffled a yawn with her hand then closed her eye that was open.
“I guess I should have let you return to your own bed instead of holding on to you,” Michiru looked down at her lap, a hand was placed over top of hers and she looked up into teal eyes.
“Don't worry about it sweetheart, I'd rather sleep with you on a small bed rather than sleep on a cot all by myself,” she whispered to her just in case someone was listening to them.
On the other side of the living room in between the two chairs sat a figure with brown eyes looking at the people on the couch. The figure crept closer to them without being noticed, not before long the figure was inches away from Haruka. A very cold nose touched Haruka's bare leg causing the blonde to move her leg away quickly.
“Videl!” the blonde smiled at the dog who sat beside her wagging her tail happily. “You have a cold wet nose,” the blonde rubbed her behind her ear. Videl put her paws on Haruka's lap and licked her in the face, “Gross, I've been kissed by a dog,” she wiped the slobber off her face with her hand. Michiru couldn't help but laugh at them, “I think someone really likes you Ruka.”
“Yeah, it looks that way,” Haruka scratched Videl under her chin which made her tail wag even faster.
“So this is where you went Videl,” Jasutin stood in the doorway, “I was wonder were you took off to.” Jasutin came into the room and sat on the couch opposite of his cousin.
“So Haruka did you tell Michiru?” Michiru looked at Haruka who shook her head no, “Tell me what?” she was curious now.
“Haruka has agreed to be my best man.” Jasutin grinned at his cousin; he still couldn't believe that she agreed to do it. “Really…that's great,” Michiru could just picture Haruka wearing a tuxedo standing at the alter with her cousin.
“Haruka…are you ready to go and get measured for you tux?”
“Yeah,” both of them stood, “Would you like to come with us Michiru?”
“I'd love too.”
-----------------------------------------------
“Are you going to come out and show us Haruka?” Jasutin and Michiru sat in front of a door which had a mirror on it. “Just a second, I have to do up my pants,” the door was slowly opened revealing the blonde. Michiru stared in awe at the sight before her; Haruka wore a black suit with five buttons instead of the traditional three. Underneath she wore a vest and a tie the same colour as the bride's maid dresses.
“So how do I look?” Haruka looked at herself in the mirror, “You look very handsome,” Michiru finally found her voice. “Handsome?” Haruka glanced over at Michiru and smiled at her, “Thanks.”
“You three are going to look real sharp staying beside me.” Jasutin smiled at his cousin, he had to admit that she indeed looked handsome considering she was a woman.
“Who's all standing up on your side anyways?” Haruka did up her buttons on the jacket.
“There's you, Hirari's brother and a friend of mine,” Jasutin and Michiru waited outside the changing room for Haruka to get changed back into her shorts and t-shirt.
“Can I ask you a question Jasutin?” Michiru sat down on one of the chairs that were provided. “Sure,” Jasutin sat down beside her. “How did you and Hirari meet?” A happy smile appeared on his face, “I met her in college. She was a freshman and I was a junior. Hirari looked like she was lost in the halls so I offered to help her find her classes.” Jasutin's eyes glazed over at the thought of Hirari's in college and the lost expression in her eyes. “She offered to pay me back for my kindness, I accepted her offer and she took me out for a coffee after school…we sort of hit it off right away and became good friends which lead to her becoming my girlfriend.”
“You're very lucky to have found someone that cares for you deeply,” Michiru clasped her hands together on her lap. “Do you have anyone special in your life?” A smile came to her face.
“Actually I do,” she looked down at her ring on her finger.
“Are you two ready to go?” Haruka stood in front of them with her suit draped over her arm, Michiru and Jasutin stood and left the tuxedo store following Haruka.
------------------------------------------
Jasutin pulled up in front of the Tenoh house and parked on the street instead of in the driveway. “Why is there so many cars parked in the driveway?” Haruka opened the passenger's side door and got out; all three of them made there way to the house.
“That's Hirari's car,” Jasutin pointed to a dark purple Neon, “and that's Kyari's.” They walked by a black 1993 Ford Taurus. “Whose Taurus is that?” Haruka pointed to a dark green car that was parked on the street, “that's Adamu's.”
Jasutin, Haruka and Michiru entered the house and were greeted by many voices coming from the living room. “Sounds like everyone is excited today,” Michiru slipped off her sandals that she wore, “Well the wedding is only five days away,” Haruka placed her tuxedo in the closet so she didn't have to go up stairs and put it away.
“Come on you two…I want you to meet everyone,” Jasutin took off down the hall with his cousin and her friend following him. They stepped into the living room; everyone was busy talking with each other. Three people sat on the couch and two others were sitting on the floor.
“Can I have everyone's attention please…?” Jasutin stood beside Hirari, “I'd like you all to meet my cousin Haruka and her friend Michiru.” Haruka and Michiru bowed to them, “Please to meet you.” All five of them stood and introduced themselves; first there was a tall man with short black hair who went by the name Roba-to, he was Hirari's big brother and Rosheru's husband. Second was Adamu, he was shorter than Haruka by a couple of inches and had short dark green hair that matched his car. Next there was Kyari who had dirty blonde hair that was shoulder length, and then there was Anjera and Rosheru. Anjera had long brown hair and Rosheru had long purple hair that went just past her butt.
“So what are all you guys doing here…I thought we were all going to meet later.” Jasutin sat on the chair with Hirari sitting on his lap. “We're all going out for dinner tonight….so I thought we'd all walk there since it's not too far away.” Hirari looked at Haruka's and Michiru's confused faces, “Didn't Jasutin tell you what was planned for today?” Haruka shook her head no.
“Jasutin…” Hirari turned to face him, “I thought I asked you to tell them.” Guiltiness took over his eyes. “I forgot…” he looked real sheepish sitting there with everyone's eyes on him. “Unbelievable,” Hirari shook her head at her incompetent fiancé but she couldn't help but smile at him. “Jasutin and I decided to do something with the bridal party before the wedding…you two are coming right?” Haruka looked to Michiru, “Do you want to go?” She whispered to her. “It sounds like fun.”
“And I suppose Jasutin didn't tell you about Wednesday either…” Hirari pinched the side of Jasutin's stomach. “Ow!” Jasutin rubbed his side- it didn't actually hurt him though.
“All of us are going to go to Nagashina Spaland.”
“I haven't been there in such a long time,” Haruka grinned from ear to ear; she loved riding rollercoaster's…it's such a great thrill to go so fast. Michiru on the other hand wasn't to sure about it, she really didn't like rollercoaster's but she didn't mind the water rides.
“You guys have to come…it wouldn't be the same without you,” Jasutin held onto Hirari's hands so she wouldn't pinch him anymore.
-------------------------------------------
The nine of them walked down the street towards downtown. Haruka and Michiru walked behind the group, Michiru was looking at all the different stores they past and at the beautiful flowers that stood at the front of the stores.
“What's the name of the restaurant Hirari?” Rosheru and Roba-to walked behind Jasutin and Hirari. “It's an Italian restaurant called Viale…I heard it was very good.” The ringing of a cell phone brought everyone's attention to Anjera; she quickly got it out of her purse and answered it. Everyone was silent the rest of the way to Viale except Anjera who was talking to someone on her phone.
They stopped in front of Viale; it was a very formal, elegant looking place to eat. “Can we go in there dressed like this?” Adamu looked down at his outfit; he wore black jeans and a red dress shirt. “Yeah…we are all dress casually it's not like were dressed in shorts or something.” Kyari stood next to him who wore a green shirt and black pants.
“I have a question for you…” Anjera was still on the phone but had put the person on hold, “do you guys mind if I invite a friend to come to dinner with us?” Hirari shrugged her shoulders, “I guess…who is it?” Jasutin opened the door to the restaurant. “It's Anji.” Jasutin nodded his head in agreement. Anjera went back to talking on her phone.
All nine of them went into the building and were escorted to the back were all the large tables were. There table was up against the wall, Jasutin sat by the wall with Hirari across from him, Rosheru sat beside Hirari and across from her sat Roba-to. Adamu sat beside him and across from him sat Kyari, Michiru sat beside Kyari and Haruka sat beside Michiru and Anjera sat across from Michiru with an empty spot for her guest.
They all order their drinks while they waited for Anji who still hadn't showed up yet. “Sorry for keeping you all,” they all looked up to the end of the table were a figured stood. “That's alright…come and join us Anji.” The person took their seat next to Anjera. “Anji I'd like you to meet Haruka and Michiru…Haruka is Jasutin's cousin.”
“It's nice to meet you,” Anji smiled at them. Haruka couldn't help but smile at the person, Anji's hair was pitch black with light blue highlights which was short like her own. Anji had dark blue coloured eyes that looked mysterious and wore dark blue jeans and a baggy black shirt.
The food was brought to the table and everyone started to eat the delicious meal that was prepared. Every so often Michiru would look at Anjera and Anji; she noticed something about Anji. At first glance one would think Anji was a man but if you really looked you could see the feminine in her face. She was defiantly a tomboy just like Haruka. `Anjera and Anji look like reallyclose friends.' Michiru smiled at them without them even noticing.
“That was very good,” Haruka put her napkin on her plate as she had finished her meal, “Yes it was,” Michiru wiped her mouth on her napkin before putting it on her empty plate.
“Well I'm glad you all like it…I guess I picked a good restaurant then.” Hirari smiled at all her friends who in turn where all smiling at her.
“If everyone is full now…I say we all go have some fun now.” Jasutin stood from his chair followed by Hirari. All of them looked confused; Jasutin smiled and had a mischief look in his eyes. “You all will have to follow us if you'd like to find out…” Jasutin took hold of Hirari's hand and went up to the counter to pay for there supper. Michiru looked to Haruka who had a silly grin on her face, “I don't know about that guy sometimes,” Haruka stood from her seat shacking her head at her crazy cousin, “Shall we follow them and find out what he is scheming Michi?” Michiru nodded her head and stood from her chair, “But of course.”
Out of curiosity they all followed Jasutin and Hirari out of the restaurant and down the street. “Were you taking us guys?” They passed a dance club and a few bars before Jasutin answered them. “We are going to a club…it just recently opened and it is the best one in all of Japan.” Nobody knew what to say about that so they all walked in silence until they stopped in front of a rather large looking warehouse.
“Everyone…welcome to Sexual Apedite!” By the door stood a very long line of people waiting to get in to this club. “Come on lets get in line,” Hirari and Jasutin took off running to get in line before any one else did. “Are you sure about this Ruka?” Michiru and Haruka were the only ones left standing there still deciding if they should go into this club. Michiru moved closer to Haruka wrapping her arm around Haruka's arm. “It sounds like fun…but if you don't want to go then we don't have to.” Haruka could feel the tight grip around her arm. “The music sounds good…” Michiru wasn't sure about this; she'd never been to a club like this.
“Haruka Michiru!” Jasutin shouted at them from his spot in line across the street, “Come on…we're almost at the door,” Haruka took Michiru's hand in hers and they walked across the street and stood behind Anjera and Anji.
They all paid the entrance fee and stepped inside. “If you have anything to say to anyone do it now because once you are inside you won't be able to hear one another.” Hirari held onto Jasutin's hand so she wouldn't lose him and vice versa. Haruka still held Michiru's hand as they made there way further inside the building. “Stay close to me Michiru…I don't want to lose you in the swarm of people,” Michiru tightened her grip on Haruka's hand.
The closer they got to the dance floor the louder the music got; techno blasted from the speakers as laser lights flashed all over the place making it look amazing. All sorts of different people danced around them, some were good and some were average dancers; the music was so loud you couldn't even hear yourself think let alone talk to anyone.
Haruka watched Jasutin and Hirari go to the dance floor; Roba-to and Rosheru also went to dance followed by Adamu and Kyari and then Anjera and Anji. “Michi…” Haruka looked at Michiru who was moving her head with the music, “Michi!” `Oh ya…she can't hear me,' she tapped her on the shoulder and pointed to the dance floor, Michiru smiled at her and followed her through all of the people to the dance floor. Once they arrived at the dance floor an awesome song started to play -(You Promised Me Satisfaction Remix by Ingrid) - Haruka and Michiru danced very close to each other but not as close as some.
They danced non-stop all night long, not even taking any breaks. Beads of sweat ran down their faces and onto their shirts that were already wet. The ten of them all dance together in a little circle; Jasutin and Hirari danced together, Roba-to and Rosheru dance together which was quite funny seeing how Roba-to couldn't dance very well. Adamu, Kyari, Anjera and Anji all danced together in amongst the little circle.
------------------------------------------
Haruka and Michiru stepped outside into the fresh clean air and waited for the rest of them to join them. The chilly nights air nipped at there heated bodies, Michiru hugged herself to keep the chilly air from her bare arms. “Are you cold Michi?” Haruka stood behind her and wrapped her arms around Michiru's shivering body, “Just a bit.” Michiru leaned back into Haruka's body and rested her head against her shoulder. “Is that better sweetheart?” Michiru closed her eyes; it seemed so long since she was this close to her love, it felt so comfortable, she could almost fall asleep right there.
“You two look comfortable…” Jasutin stood in front of them with a big grin on his face. Haruka didn't realize that she had closed her eyes also; panic grew inside her, she opened her eyes and looked at her smiling cousin. Haruka dropped her arms from Michiru and stepped back from her, a chill ran down her body, she missed Michiru warm body against her own. Michiru hugged herself again and looked down to the ground, `Ruka…' she felt sad inside; she missed Haruka's caresses, her body warmth, and her sweet kisses. Michiru moved away from Haruka and Jasutin with her eyes looking at the ground. The smile on Jasutin's face vanished from his face; the sadness in Michiru's eyes caused him to get goose bumps. He hung his head in disgrace, `I did it again…' Jasutin walked over to Hirari with sadness in his eyes, “What's the matter love?” Hirari wrapped her arm around his waist, “Nothing Hirari…nothing at all.” But deep down he knew something was wrong with Haruka and Michiru…something was going on between his cousin and her friend, he just hadn't figured it out yet.
Once everyone came out of the club they all headed home. The chatter amongst them was very quiet; everyone was tried from all the dancing they did. The wind wiped around their tired bodies; even though it was summer time the wind was chilly.
