I turn slightly in my sleep and the warm embrace that I'm in tightens. I smile and snuggle up to the person I'm in bed with, "Hmmm..." I hum softly. I slowly open my eyes and see Eisuke's soft sleeping face in front of me. I close my eyes again and snuggle deeper into him. "Hmmm... Eisuke..." I say softly, but then I realize that I am in bed with Eisuke! AH! I quickly and quietly sit up in bed. "Hmmm... Melody..." Eisuke softly moves beside me and I cringe. What am I doing now? I look down and see that I am fully clothed, which is a sign of relief. I look over at him and his eyes slowly open and a small smile appears on his face. I give him a questioning look and he slowly sits up beside me.
"Good morning." He says with a yawn and stretches slightly and I just stare at him. "What happened last night?" I ask softly and he sits up fully, "Well you passed out on the couch cuddling with Molly and somethings happened causing other things to happen..." He trails off softly and I look at him confusedly, "What? I was suppose to go home last night with Kenzo. I have work and... and...!" I start to become frantic and Eisuke just chuckles at me.
"I called the school and they had absolutely no problem with you not coming in today." He says with a confident smile. I shake my head, go figure any body who gets personally called by Eisuke Ichinomya is basic pudgy in his hands...
"Eisuke... you're not my boss anymore. You can't just go around and tell people I'm not going into work or that I'm taking the day off because I'm with you." I say with a slight laugh and look down at my feet which are still hidden by the covers.
Eisuke chuckles, "Believe it or not, after a considerable donation from me, they were happy to let you do whatever you want." He says with that confident smirk that sets my heart a flutter. "Eisuke..." I say with a smile and a soft blush. I look down at the sheets the lay carelessly between us and my small smile becomes sweeter. It's weird how happy it makes me that he did that because I'd love to spend the whole day with him and Molly as if we were the family we were meant to be.
I stretch my arms up and grunt softly. I can just take it easy today luckily now, thanks to Eisuke. He stares at me and smiles lovingly in my direction, in return I smile back at him. The door slowly opens and Molly sticks her head out, "Mum, are you in there?" She asks in a soft voice just in case someone is sleeping inside of the room. I smile and look over at the door, "Yes sweetie, we're both awake." I say with a laugh and she comes running in with a wide smile. She hops on the bed, between Eisuke and I, and giggles.
"Good morning Mum and uncle Ei-su!" She says happily while looking between the two of us. Eisuke and I both smile warmly and he lets out a soft chuckle, "Morning Molly." We both say at the same time. I catch a glimpse at Eisuke's soft, sweet face which cases my cheeks to burn slightly. Molly looks up at me with a smirk that I can't see due to the fact I'm staring at Eisuke.
"Mum?" Molly's small voice snaps me out of my trance and I shake my head, "Hmm...? Y-yes dear?" I ask while trying to cover my blushing cheeks with my hand. "Morning kiss?" She asks with an innocent smile on her face and I laugh slightly, "Of course!" I bend over and kiss her cheek softly and she giggles, "Uncle Ei-su will you give me one too?" She asks with the same small voice as before. Eisuke looks slightly bewildered, but soon covers that up with a soft smile, "Of course." He bends down and kisses her other cheek and I smile sweetly. We will be like this some day soon Molly... I promise you that.
After we get out of bed, dressed and had our breakfast, we head to the ballroom where Molly's birthday party is taking place. As we walk in we see a huge grand staircase and Molly squeals in excitement, "That's so cool uncle Ei-su!" She shouts as she runs over to the staircase and runs up and down the stairs. "Molly please be careful! We don't want you to fall and hurt yourself before your party, do we?" I say with concern and I hear a chuckle from beside me. I look over in the direction it seems to be coming from. I find it was Ota who chuckled, he is standing next to the rest of the gang including Luke, Mr. Hishiikura and Hikaru.
"I didn't think I would ever see you say something like that." Ota says with a laugh, "I remember when she fell going up those flight of stairs trying to get up to the penthouse in Dubai." Baba says with a laugh, everyone shakes their head in unison ad my cheeks burn. "Baba!" I shout as I cover my cheeks with my cool hands.
"Kid's blushin' again." Mamoru says sluggishly and I glare at him, "Shut up you lazy ass cop!" I say with a glare and everyone chuckles again, "I like how she thinks she can get us to be quite like that." Ota says softly to Baba, who shakes his head with a signature smile on his face.
I shake my head and glare at them, "Whatever!" I say and look back over at Molly who is on the fourth step talking excitedly to Soryu. For a scary mob boss, he's pretty good with Molly. I find myself smiling at Soryu and at the kind way he smiles and talks with Molly. Little did I know that Eisuke was glaring at the tender expression I was giving. "Melody, are you going to stand there and gawk at Soryu or are you going to help us decorate this huge ballroom?" Ota says with a sneer and I quickly run over to him, "Oh... Of course!" I say softly as I grab one of the many boxes of decorations for the staircase.
I walk over to Soryu and Molly and sit the box by them, "Okay Molly! Shall we get started?" I ask and she shakes her head up and down. She bends down and grabs some of the lavender ribbon. She begins to rap the ribbon sloppily up the railing of the stair case. I shuffle in a laugh as I follow behind her fixing the ribbon so that way Ota doesn't get too mad at the mess. Soryu starts on the other side of the stair case and by the time I'm all the way up the stairs, Soryu hasn't even made it past the second step.
"Soryu! You are making a mess! Look the ribbon is wrapped all up in your legs and you put knots in it!" Ota shouts at him while they both try to straighten up the ribbon on the floor. I cover my mouth with the back of my hand as I start to giggle slightly. Ota gets too mad over the slightest things. I look at them both with a sweet smile and they stare at me.
"Mum! Uncle Ota is being mean to Uncle Soryu!" Molly shouts as she clings to my leg and I laugh some more slightly. "I know, it's okay though. It's how they show their love for one another." I say with a laugh and I still feel those two staring at me. Little did I know that everyone in the room was staring at Molly and I at the top of the stairs... Some people with kind eyes, others with blushing faces and one with a glare.
After a while they all call it a day and Baba decides to throw a pre-pre-party. I shake my head, "I think Molly and I should head home for a bit so we can get some stuff together." I say with a soft smile and Molly shakes her head, "I think that's a great idea!" Someone shouts. I turn around to see Eisuke smirking with his arms crossed in front of him. "I will take you both back so you can get some things." He says quickly and before I can object, he's already calling for the car to come around to the front of the hotel. I shake my head with a smile on my face, just like Eisuke to do whatever he wants without anyone else's consent.
Molly smiles as she sits on Baba's lap, "So Molly, do you like it here?" Baba asks her and her smile becomes wider. "Yeah! I want to live here all the time like you all!" She says happily and I smile at her, "Well maybe one day we can." I say and instantly everyone's eye are on me.
Molly's eyes get wide, "Really mum?" she asks with such a big grin and I shake my head yes, "I think maybe one day, if uncle Ei-su and I sit down and have a talk, we could be living here with everyone." I say with a soft smile and she runs up to me and hugs my legs. "I really want that to happen!" She says softly into my legs and I smile. It will I promise!
Little did I know the promise will take more from me than I intended...
