Chapter 3.
Yamapi stood in front of Kazuya’s apartment unit. He was apparently dragged by an irked Nishikido Ryo and an overly concerned Koyama Keiichiro. He sheepishly smiled at the two but Ryo’s glare and Koyama’s motherly mode made him think quickly. Heaving out a sigh, Yamapi knocked on the door.
A still irate Ueda Tatsuya opened the door. Dagger looks were immediately thrown Yamapi’s way but once his eyes glanced around and found a certain Sexy Osaka Man, Tatsuya let out a squeal and jumped in the said man’s arms.
“Oof! Hime…”
Quickly pecking Ryo’s lips, Tatsuya proceeded to give Koyama a manly hug before resuming his irate pose in front of Yamapi.
“What are you doing here?” Tatsuya asked, looking at Yamapi pointedly.
“Ah, Ueda-san,” Koyama started, “We’re here to discuss with you about their situation.”
“Eh? Are you now?”
“Hime, come on, let us in first, then we’ll discuss about our leaders’ situation.”
“Fine. Don’t make any noise, Kazuya’s sleeping in his room and he’s bitchy when he’s disturbed.” Tatsuya opened the door widely and allowed everyone to get inside. He led them inside the wide living room and motioned for them to sit down.
“I’m looking after Kazuya for now; I don’t want him doing something stupid so I have to keep an eye on him. Anyway, you want tea?”
“I’ll prepare the tea; I know where he puts it.” Ryo volunteered, standing up from his seat to rummage in the kitchen.
Once Ryo left for the kitchen, Tatsuya and Koyama started to discuss about the situation. Yamapi remained quiet, listening to KAT-TUN’s Hime and NEWS’ mama.
“So, what is your proposal?” Tatsuya asked Koyama directly, all businesslike and no nonsense. It was like facing Kazuya’s parents merged into one person.
“Anou, Ueda-san,” Koyama tried to go for formality to earn Tatsuya’s trust. “I’d like to have Yamapi and Kazuya have a serious talk so they can discuss things over.”
“And?”
“Well, a paternity test once the child is born?” Koyama asked idiotically.
“WHAT?!” Tatsuya yelled, furious at the paternity test issue. “What the fuck does the paternity test have to do with it?”
“Uhm, safety precautions?” Koyama answered. His right arm nudging Yamapi.
“Kazuya doesn’t sleep around with other people if he did so he would have been pregnant a long time ago, considering he flirts with men of all age.” Tatsuya huffed.
“Well-” Koyama started but was cut-off by Yamapi.
“I just want to make sure if the child is really mine and then…”
“And then what?” Koyama and Tatsuya asked together.
“Then I can have the child - and Kazuya - named after me…?” Yamapi said unsure of the statement he let go.
Just in time, Ryo returned into the living room from the kitchen carrying four steaming cups of tea and laid the tray on the table as he sat beside Tatsuya.
“So, you wanna named the kid after you?” Ryo asked casually.
“Yeah, I mean, I’m the father and all, it’s just right and then, maybe…” Yamapi trailed staring into his cup. He wanted Kazuya to be his but he didn’t want a child before he can have Kazuya. He wanted it traditional like get together then they can have a child, not the other way around but since the child is already here, Yamapi had no choice.
“I want him.” He declared.
Tatsuya choked in his tea and Ryo soothe him. Koyama gasped, eyeing Yamapi and measuring his words.
“Do you really want him as want him - so bad?” Koyama asked.
“You know me better, Kei. You know I’ve set my eyes on him a long time ago...it’s just Bakanishi and TTUN are keeping me away from him. They’re guarding him closely and then there’s Takki and Tsubasa and Matsujun. And then when I had the chance, I screwed him up.”
“It’s good to know you are aware of what you’ve done.” Tatsuya bit out.
Yamapi let out a sigh. “I know the child is mine. I just want proof so I can really have him.”
“Fine, you can have him but how are you going to explain to his family? They’re going to castrate you.” Tatsuya said, giving Yamapi a little scare.
“I don’t know…”
“Well, now that you’ve voice out your thoughts, what are you gonna do now Pi?” Ryo asked as he took a sip from his cup, his hands running on Tatsuya’s arm.
“If it’s alright…I want Kazuya to stay with me. I mean, I want him to live with me.”
Koyama choked on his drink. “Are you sure? But you have work, if you’re away who’s gonna look after Kazuya?”
“I’ll think about it, maybe I’ll turn job offers down or something like that…”
“And how are you gonna take care of him? He’s expensive.” Tatsuya remarked, wanting Pi to let go of the idea. He wanted to be the one to look after Kazu…just to make sure he’s alright.
“I don’t care about that, I have a lot of savings set aside, mind you, and if we spent time together, we can manage. I think.”
“You sound so sure.” Tatsuya chastised.
“Kazuya is pregnant. It’ll be like hell since both of you are first timers.” Koyama said, thinking deeply about future situations.
A comfortable silence passed between them after they settled some things except for the living together issue. And one important thing.
“Erm,” Ryo distracted the group. “I know we’re bent on taking care of Kazuya and Yamapi acknowledging fatherhood and embracing the responsibility that comes with it, but how are we going to tell Johnny-san?”
“Right. Johnny-san.” Tatsuya and Koyama said together, again.
Heaving out a sigh and putting on a brave face, Yamapi sat erect and said: “I’ll be telling him tomorrow, first thing in the morning.”
The three guys with Yamapi let out a relieved sigh; Koyama clutching his chest, Ryo and Tatsuya holding each other’s hand. Just then, Kazuya’s bedroom door opened and the younger man padded into the living room. It took him quite sometime to figure out who were the people in his apartment and what the hell are they doing without him.
“Ah, Kazu, you’re awake. Yamapi wanted to talk to you.” Koyama said nudging Yamapi to walk over to the still dazed Kazuya.
“Ne, Kazu, I want to plan the future with you.”
Three head snapped up and spat out their drinks altogether yelling in surprise at Yamapi’s bluntness.
“EH?!”
And it was enough to get Kazuya clearly awake.
