Changes

Chapter 10

Asami guided Akihito through the hospital doors, his hand on the small of Akihito's back, and into the lobby. The receptionist stood and bowed to pair as they moved by, Kirishima moving past them to summon the elevator. Once the pair were inside, along with Souh and Kirishima, and the doors shut Akihito starting laughing and holding his side causing the three men to smirk.

"I can't believe she did that and in front of all those reporters." He said, still laughing, "She'll never live that down. I bet the article is already online, let me check." Akihito pulled out his phone and began searching for articles.

"Sir, should we prepare for damage control?" Kirishima asked, though he knew his boss's answer.

"No." Asami replied, as they arrived at the floor, "She got herself into this mess and she'll have to find her own way out."

"Ah, found something!" Akihito exclaimed, not looking up from his phone as they exited the elevator, "It's just a picture with a short paragraph but have a look."

Asami took the phone his eye brow raising at the photo. The photographer seemed to capture the craziness of Chihori perfectly. Even though she had looked almost perfect during the confrontation, the slight edits made her hair look slightly wild and her eyes were made more prominent showing the crazed look in them. The photo even managed to capture the surprise in Akihito as well as himself. The caption below read: 'Asami Chihori, wife of Asami Ryuichi, proves rumors from this mornings surprising article true as she screams that she wished for her husband's poor sick child to die. Asami Ryuichi, seen here with his young lover who still has not been named, looked on in shock while his wife was escorted away from the hospital by his guards. More information to come.' Asami handed the phone back to his little lover.

"The picture is definitely gonna be the one used my most people covering the situation." Akihito said, admiring the photographers work, "Those little edits he made really bring out the emotion in you."

"You seem very impressed with the photographer's work." Asami said with a smirk.

" Of course, I can appreciate good work when I see it. And don't thin I forgot I'm still pissed at you. What was with that article and those pictures?"

"Later." Asami said as they arrived at Amelia's room, a nurse came around from the nurses station to great them, "How is she?"

"She's still asleep but everything looks good. No complications last night. Feel free to sit with her for as long as you like." The nurse reported with a small bow.

"Thank you." Asami entered the room first quickly followed by Akihito. Asami took the chair to the right of the bed while Akihito settled on the couch on the left.

"You know I'll probably never get to do criminal photography ever again because of that article." Akihito said with a slight glare at Asami, "Now every police, newspaper, and informant knows about our relationship. That was the majority of my income."

"Looks like you'll just have to depend on me to provide, like a good little wife." Asami said with a smirk.

"Last I checked you already have a wife."

"Not for long. Then I'll need my cute little kitten to take the position. But while we wait I'll just have your stuff moved into my penthouse."

"Like hell you will, you bastard!"

Asami chuckled at his lover pouting when a small groan was heard from the bed between them. Asami stood from his chair and knelt beside Amelia's bed, grabbing her small hand in his. Akihito sat on the other side looking down at her. Slowly her golden eyes opened looking straight at Asami, a small smile formed on her face as one grew on Asami.

"Daddy?" She asked in a small voice, her eyes barely open.

"I'm here sweetie and so is Aki." Asami replied, nodding his head towards Akihito, "You rest some and we'll be here when you wake up, ok?"

She didn't repsond beyond a small nod before drifting off again, a smile on her face. The doctor and nurse came in as Asami and Akihito returned to their seats. Clearly Kirishima had gone to tell them she had woken up. After reporting what had happened and them briefly examining her they were left alone with her once again. As the two looked across at each other, Akihito couldn't help but smile.

"You know you should've just told me what you planned, Ryuichi." He said smiling over at him, "I could've gotten you some way better photos of us to send with it."

"I'll remember that for next time." Asami replied with a smirk. His little lover continued to surprise him.
