Prompt: #26 - Post-Ep. Temptation.
Warnings: None
Summary: Tohma returns home after the Nittle Grasper/Bad Luck Concert without Eiri. Mika consoles him.
Mika was waiting at the airport. Though Noriko had asked her to go to the concert, she felt no desire to. She wanted to wait for her husband and brother. Assuming they came together, that was. They had to come together. She was sure that Eiri would see reason now after all these years. The trip to New York had to have done him some sort of good. However, her hopes fell when she saw Tohma walk off the plane-alone.
“I thought you would be at the concert,” Tohma told her, frowning slightly as he approached. It was clear that he wasn’t in the best of moods. Mika felt the sudden temptation to run and hug him, despite her proper upbringing.
“I suppose it would be useless to inform you that I’m not,” she told him. “It didn’t go as you planned, did it?”
“Not at all,” he admitted. “Eiri… is beyond needing my help anymore.” Mika frowned. It was quite obvious that it pained him to say that. She gave into her temptation then and reached out, gathering him into her arms, hugging him tightly. Surprisingly, he didn’t resist and, in fact, seemed to melt into the embrace.
“True, there’s nothing more you can do for him,” Mika admitted, rubbing his back soothingly. “But that’s because he’s no longer broken. He may not always show it, but he’s happy with Shindou. And I’m happy for them.” She paused for a moment, smiling slightly. “And you should be too.”
“I am… I want nothing but the best for Eiri,” he stated. “And I admit that only Shindou can give him the best.”
“Exactly,” she ran her hand gently through his hair. “You have your own family to worry about.” Tohma glanced up at her for a brief moment before closing the small distance between them, catching her lips in a chaste kiss.
“You’re right. Nothing is more important now than you,” he told her, placing a gentle hand on her belly. “Both of you.”
