A/N: Oh my… it seems some people are still confused of how come Rihan could come back, even though I already put a subtle explanation in Ryuujin and Kirin's speech. I guess; it's not explanatory enough. Fine. This is a bonus chapter, an OMAKE for you guys who wants to know how Rihan can come back and the family reaction of his comeback *grins*. ENJOY~! ^_^

Nura's Golden Days Special: OMAKE

There's something in your eyes that is saying tonight

I'm not a child anymore, life has opened the door

To a new exciting life*

~Rihan x Rikuo~

After allowing the freshmen to familiarize themselves with their new school surroundings and finishing the preliminary lessons for the day, Rikuo asked Rihan, one of his new students in his class, out to spend some quality time together.

"Anyway, Rihan-san… how did you manage to come back to this world?"

Rikuo, now sitting at a table in a family restaurant, asked the teenage boy who sat across from him. The boy's clear golden eyes blinked slightly at the sudden question. His slightly longer black hair was tied in a low ponytail. His long bangs almost covered his entire right eye, but Rikuo could still see the glint of amusement in the golden orbs.

Rihan smiled slightly as he drank his strawberry smoothie. "Sensei, you're so bold for asking your new student out on the first day of school," he said, intentionally ignoring Rikuo's question in favor of making the older man blush.

"E-eh, wha—?" Rikuo widened his eyes, staring at Rihan's naughty smirk in disbelief. "Rihan-san!" he scolded, blushing furiously in embarrassment after realizing that he was being teased by the boy.

The teenage boy laughed at Rikuo's very funny look. "My God, Rikuo… you never change…" he was still chuckling amusedly as he said that.

"And you're still a tease!" Rikuo scolded again, pouting at him, annoyed that Rihan still had his quirk to embarrass Rikuo like that, despite his younger form now.

"Well… I just want to test a theory," Rihan reasoned, still sniggering slightly.

"A theory?" Rikuo tilted his head at that, looking at him in wonder.

"There's not much I remember about my past life as Nura Rihan… they're hazy, and sometimes I wonder if those memories are really mine," Rihan said then, sighing slightly as he stared out of the window of the restaurant.

"Rihan-san…?" Rikuo looked at Rihan in worry now. Rihan seemed… sad?

"Getting reborn… as a new human being while still holding my past memories… is not easy," Rihan said slowly, taking a deep breath. "I keep getting confused about why I'm having those memories even though I'm sure that I have never experienced them… It's like watching a movie of someone else's life through a sequence of dreams, but I know it's me and yet not me at the same time," he continued. "Sorry, I'm not making any sense," he said, turning to Rikuo again while smiling sheepishly.

Rikuo looked at his iced coffee on the table thoughtfully. "Indeed, when people are reborn, they shouldn't remember their past life… someone or something must have interfered with the process when you were getting reborn, Rihan-san," he said, looking at Rihan seriously.

"Yeah… and I know who did," Rihan said suddenly.

"You do?" Rikuo was surprised.

"Ryuujin," Rihan said simply with an apologetic smile.

…

…

"That egoistical deity again?" A vein popped on Rikuo's head, his fists clenched and he was about to rant angrily when Rihan spoke again.

"My parents said that… I was supposed to die the moment I was born."

Rikuo widened his eyes hearing that. "What?" he couldn't help asking in shock.

"It's a genetic defect or something. Doctor said my lungs wouldn't expand, thus I shouldn't have survived after the birth, but… , the truth was that I had already died in my mother's womb. That was what Ryuujin said. My parents who couldn't deal with what the doctor had informed them then prayed to Ryuujin to save their stillborn and so they made some kind of agreement," Rihan explained. "They said, Ryuujin would give the 'life' that originally wasn't given to the stillborn child, but in return, they had to tell the child after he was born that whatever he was remembering or dreaming was the truth and the child shouldn't run away from the memories, but instead embraced and accepted them as his own," he continued, with a slightly solemn tone in his voice.

"Rihan-san…" Rikuo looked at Rihan concernedly.

"Ryuujin was holding onto my soul the whole time after I died in my previous life… and then placed it into the stillborn baby so I could be reborn without having to go through the passage of reincarnation. That way, I could keep all the memories of my previous life intact after I live again, as a human this time," Rihan said, still smiling ruefully again and there was a tinge of sadness in his voice that stirred Rikuo's heart as well.

Rihan must have felt that he stole someone else's life by doing that, but it was beyond Rihan's control what Ryuujin decided to do. Personally, Rikuo was fine with that because Rihan didn't exactly steal anyone's life. The baby was destined to die. Ryuujin placed Rihan's soul there to keep him alive. The baby didn't have any life in the first place. In fact, Rihan gave 'his life' to the container. In short, that body or that container indeed belonged to Rihan, and no one else.

"Sometimes Ryuujin can do something useful too," Rikuo said, huffing, still slightly annoyed at Ryuujin for using a method that wasn't exactly appropriate.

Rihan blinked and looked at Rikuo ridiculously.

Rikuo coughed slightly. "He granted the couple's wish to save their child. Rihan-san is their child given by Ryuujin," Rikuo said again, feeling that he needed to explain himself. "And I'm thankful too… because, if Rihan-san wasn't reborn, I wouldn't be able to meet Rihan-san again," he then looked down, suddenly feeling really interested in his own lap for saying such an embarrassing line.

Rihan was silent for a moment before he chuckled again. "That's true," he said, smiling happily again and Rikuo was glad that he could see his genuine joyful smile again.

"Hey, earlier you said the memory was hazy? How much do you remember about your past life?" Rikuo asked then, feeling interested.

"Hmm…" Rihan seemed thoughtful at that before started speaking "I know that I was a youkai… or a half, for that matter. I had a big family which belonged to youkai yakuza clan, but I kinda forgot the name… Nu-… Nuka? Nula?"

"Nura Gumi," Rikuo supplied.

"Yeah, that," Rihan nodded, punching his palm. Rikuo's sweat dropped at that. "I was a leader of that family and… I did have a wife… or two?" he frowned, seeming trying to remember.

Well, if Rihan had seen his own memories through dreams or something along that line, it was normal for not being able to remember everything. It was over 300 years worth of memory after all. Human brains couldn't store that much information.

"Ah, but there's someone I remember very clearly," Rihan suddenly said while smiling pleasantly.

"Who?" Rikuo asked, slightly curious.

"Rikuo," Rihan said, showing his oh-so-very-enticing smile that could make any girl (and boy) swoon at his gorgeousness.

Rikuo blushed again hearing that. "You did that on purpose, didn't you?" he accused, still flushing in the crimson color of embarrassment as Rihan chuckled at that.

"It's the truth!" Rihan denied the accusation while laughing, so it didn't sound convincing at all.

"Jeez, stop teasing someone who's older than you!" Rikuo scolded, pouting again like a child despite what he had said.

"But… but, Rikuo is very cute when he's blushing," Rihan said, still trying to hold down his laughter seeing Rikuo's expression and hearing his protests.

"Shut up!" Rikuo threw the menu at Rihan who dodged it expertly.

"Even though I'm a human now, I haven't lost my 'physical skill'," Rihan winked teasingly and seductively at Rikuo who blushed even redder at the double entendre.

"Rihan-san you pervert!" Rikuo shouted at him again, louder this time, such that every other person in the restaurant threw the pair a funny look, or an interested look for that matter because obviously, they were a teacher and a student, judging by their clothes, and yet the teacher was getting teased over and over again by the student.

It was actually a very funny scene, but Rikuo realized that he was attracting attention, so he went quiet immediately even though he was still silently cursing at the younger boy for embarrassing him like that.

~Rihan x Rikuo~

There's something in your eyes, is this love at first sight?

Like a flower that grows, life just wants you to know

All the secrets of life*

~Rihan x Rikuo~

"Rihan-san, do you want to go home?" Rikuo asked then, after they got out of the restaurant and walked down the street together.

"Huh, what do you mean home? Mine or yours?" Rihan asked, tilting his head slightly at Rikuo. It was just to make sure that he wasn't misunderstanding anything, because right now, Rihan had his own life as a human and no longer the Nidaime of the Nura Gumi.

"Of course our home," Rikuo said, smiling happily at Rihan.

Rihan's cheeks turned slightly pink seeing Rikuo's cute smile. "No matter how old you are, Rikuo is still so cute," Rihan said, hugging the man that was slightly shorter than him.

Rikuo turned red at that. "Hey! What are you doing, Rihan-san? Let go!" he tried to push Rihan away, but it was rather futile because Rihan was taller than his teacher.

How could a fifteen year old boy be that tall? Well, Rihan was still growing and he drank a lot of milk every day, and maybe it was because of the genetic influence. Both his mother and father in this life were tall after all.

"Rikuo is still small too, how adorable," Rihan said again while snuggling the older man now, seeming to make Rikuo even more self conscious because people were staring at them now.

Rihan did know that a lot of people knew Rikuo by face because of his reputation. That actually made Rihan eager to show the world that Rikuo was his in a special way.

"Rihan-san!" Rikuo pinched Rihan's side and he yelped in surprise at that.

"Wah! What was that for?" Rihan protested, nursing his stinging side. Rikuo could be violent too in his own way… wait, Rihan did know that from the past life, right? He had even pushed Rihan so hard that he collapsed on the floor… but the position at that time was kind of provocative and made Rihan happy, somehow.

"Stop grinning to yourself, it's creepy," Rikuo deadpanned, punching Rihan's arm lightly to bring him back from the land of fantasy. "And that is the punishment for teasing your elders and for not listening to your teacher," he huffed while bringing both his hands on his waist, getting the upper hand because it was the truth. "Moreover, I'm not small! I'm over 5.6 feet, it's tall!" he continued, looking annoyed.

Rihan blinked once and twice before he snorted and laughed again.

"What's so funny?" Rikuo asked, getting more exasperated by the second.

"Well, I bet you're more pissed off that I called you small rather than the fact that I hugged you in public, Rikuo-sensei," Rihan grinned teasingly again and of course, as expected, Rikuo blushed again as well hearing that.

"Rihan-san!" Rikuo seemed about to lunge at Rihan and probably trying to give him a lesson, but Rihan was still fast on his feet so he quickly eluded Rikuo's attack and ran away immediately.

"Race you back to the Nura Gumi Main House!" Rihan shouted and then started running while laughing childishly. It was totally justified. In this life, Rihan was still a teenager, right?

"Aaah! That's cheating!"

Rihan heard Rikuo yell before he felt that the teacher ran after him. Somehow, when Rikuo was dealing with Rihan, he seemed to act childish too despite his current age. Rihan grinned happily at that thought. Rikuo was racing with a teenage boy like Rihan without thinking too much. He bet it was kind of refreshing for the chocolate haired glasses wearing teacher.

It had been a long time since Rihan felt this happy. No, it was never too late. Since that day when they separated from each other in his past life at the Kerria Garden… since that day when Rihan died in front of the little Rikuo… Rihan had always regretted that he couldn't spend more time with him. So, this time around, he would enjoy their life together to the fullest. He wanted to make as many as memories as possible and fill their life with happiness and love that couldn't be realized in the previous life and the previous time.

~Rihan x Rikuo~

The Family's Reaction~

"Nice to meet you, I'm Rihan," Rihan bowed politely while closing his eyes as Rikuo brought him to meet Rikuo's family… and Rihan's family in his previous life.

Kubinashi dropped the water hose he used to water the plants causing the water to flow freely on the ground. Kappa was actually drowning despite being a Kappa. Kejorou and Tsurara dropped all the laundry. Kurotabo slipped on the grass and fell and Aotabo literally dropped his jaw.

All of them had wide disbelieving eyes as they stared, gaping at the young man who looked identical to their Second Supreme Commander when he was still alive and young. Moreover, Rikuo wasn't helping with his cheery overly excited expression despite his age.

"S-Sandaime…, who the hell is that!" everyone immediately attacked Rikuo with the big question, completely ignoring Rihan's introduction despite the boy already mentioning his name.

"Oi!" a vein popped on Rihan's head at their reaction.

"Ahaha, calm down, everyone; as you can see, it's Rihan-san," Rikuo said, still smiling so happily, not even bothering to conceal his preference of calling Rihan as 'Rihan-san' and not his father.

"But—! HOW?" Everyone shouted in unison, still totally in shock at actually seeing Rihan like that…alive and young. After all, Rihan was supposed to be dead more than twenty years ago.

"What's with the ruckus?"

Then Nurarihyon came in, entering the scene upon hearing the ruckus at his front yard. Everyone tensed and quickly opened up a way so he could see what was happening.

And as expected, the old man blinked at seeing Rihan's sheepish face beside his smiling grandson and dropped his pipe. "Ri-…han…?" he hung his jaw in open mouth, looking totally in shock as well.

Rihan shifted his gaze at the small old man who he identified as Nurarihyon, his father in his previous life. But since he didn't share the emotional bond of the previous Rihan for being Nurarihyon's son, he only smiled politely at him. "Good to see you, Nurarihyon-san," he said, surprising the old man.

Nurarihyon widened his eyes as he heard that. There was no way Rihan would address him that way. Moreover, with that polite manner as well… He immediately understood then, that this Rihan wasn't 'his son'.

"I see…" Nurarihyon softened his expression then. "You've reincarnated huh?" he asked, "just like Yamabuki at that time…"

Rihan smiled ruefully at that. "Fortunately, the one intervening this time was a deity and not an evil youkai like Sanmoto," he replied accordingly.

Everyone except Rikuo, who already knew, gasped at their conversation.

"He's the real Rihan-sama?"

"Rihan-sama reincarnated?"

"MY GOD! Rihan-sama is back!"

"Rihan-sama, you said?"

Then the ruckus started to grow as the other youkai, the bigger and the smaller ones, began to come out as well one by one to see that the rumored Rihan had come back.

"Look at him! He's so young!"

"Is he really Rihan-sama?"

"His golden eyes are the dead giveaway, stupid!"

"Is he a youkai?"

"Wait, he's wearing a uniform! He goes to school?"

"That means he's human, right?"

Everyone was still crowding to get a glimpse at Rihan who started to feel like he was a spectacle than a person. Rikuo noticed that Rihan was uncomfortable with the sudden attention directed to him, so he sighed apologetically and shouted "QUIET!"

Everyone shut their mouths instantly, surprised at the sudden order from their Sandaime. Rihan also widened his eyes at the loud volume. He didn't remember Rikuo's voice sounding like that. Well, since Rikuo had already grown up into a 'man' and no longer a 'boy', it wasn't that strange, but Rihan seemed to have forgotten about that, hence the surprise.

"Now, don't be so rude to our guest. I know all of you are surprised, right? Let's go inside and talk okay?" Rikuo smiled again sweetly and cheerily at everyone and they all dumbly blushed seeing the imaginary flowers that bloomed around Rikuo who looked very adorable all of a sudden.

"Yes… Rikuo-sama…" everyone immediately obliged with hearts in their eyes.

Rihan's sweat dropped before his eyes turned amazed as well. "He really never changes…" he said, blushing as well.

~Rihan x Rikuo~

I'm so curious for more just like never before

In my innocent life

~Rihan x Rikuo~

"So… Rihan-sama, are you really our Rihan-sama?" Kubinashi asked after they all were seated in the recreation room which did not change at all since a long time ago. The amber eyed neck-less youkai looked somehow hopeful and moved that they could meet again like this.

"My soul is Rihan's, but in this life, I'm just Rihan, an ordinary human," Rihan, who was seated at the center with Rikuo and Nurarihyon, while the others were surrounding them, replied calmly.

"Ooh! So Rihan-sama is indeed a mere human now…" everyone murmured while nodding, understanding.

"The scent of his soul is Rihan's though. No youkai will ever mistake that part," Nurarihyon nodded as well, somehow smiling in relief.

"Yep, the scent of the soul is very peculiar after all. Rihan-san's scent is very nice. It has never really changed since a long time ago," Rikuo also smiled nostalgically, seeming to remember something pleasant in the past.

Rihan somehow could guess what kind of pleasant memory that allowed Rikuo and Rihan to get to know each other scent so intimately and he blushed as well, remembering (or in his case, seeing in his dream) that particular memory.

"What's wrong, Rihan? You're turning kinda red," Nurarihyon commented and Rihan blushed deeper if it was possible. Damn his young body. Even though he was still Rihan, for some reasons he wasn't as bold as he used to be.

Rihan coughed slightly to hide his embarrassment. "It's nothing. I just remembered something…" he said vaguely.

"So… Rihan-sama, where are you living now?" now Kejorou asked with sparkling eyes.

"Of course I'm staying in Tokyo, near Ikebukuro, actually in an apartment," Rihan replied.

"Do you live alone or currently with someone else?" Kurotabo followed the conversation and asked as well.

"Ah… there's a cousin that lives there as well, but he's rarely home. He only comes home to sleep," Rihan said with a sheepish smile.

"Rihan-san, why don't you move out from there and move in with us again?" Rikuo suggested.

"That's right! That's right! Rihan-sama belongs with us!" the others immediately supported the idea.

"That's true, Rihan. Come back home," Nurarihyon also invited him back.

"Ah… that… might be a little…" Rihan looked hesitant, a bead of sweat rolling down his cheek.

"What's wrong?" Rikuo looked at Rihan, a little concernedly.

"Well…" Rihan scratched his cheek with his forefinger, looking away, seeming a little nervous. "Uhm… Wa-Wakana-san is here too…" and he blushed slightly after he said that.

…

…

There was a long awkward silence in the room after that.

"That… will be very awkward indeed…" Rikuo seemed to just realize it as well and he looked rather horrified.

"Right? So I'll just visit this house sometimes… and keep staying with the cousin until I can afford my own house," Rihan said, smiling sheepishly again.

"But, isn't it okay if Rihan-sama is with Wakana-sama again. They were husband and wife once," Tsurara suddenly said, tilting her head aside.

…

…

"Good idea Tsurara!" Kejorou, Kubinashi and Kurotabo shouted suddenly. And everyone cheered at the very nice idea, well, except three people who knew what disasters would occur if the idea was realized.

"Wait a second… Tsurara …" Rikuo spoke slowly and lowly, so no one could really hear it except Nurarihyon and Rihan who were beside him. Both immediately paled as they saw Rikuo's look of utter evil with his dark bangs shadowing his eyes and the wavering flaring youki despite still being in his human form.

"W-wait, Rikuo… she doesn't know the entire story…" Nurarihyon tried to stop Rikuo before he could get unreasonably angry towards his subordinate, who was clueless about his love-life story.

"T-that's right, Rikuo, I can explain to everyone why I can't get together with Wakana-san again," Rihan also said, reaching for Rikuo's suit so he could calm down.

Rikuo was silent for a moment before calming down and smiling again. "That's right, thank you, Rihan-san," he said gratefully.

Nurarihyon and Rihan's sweats dropped seeing the change. Rihan turned to Nurarihyon slightly for a brief clue or explanation of why Rikuo had turned out that way.

"Rikuo and his youkai personality often overlap with each other these past years. It seems the boundary that separates them is thinning and sometimes, Yoru's personality can come out even though Rikuo is in charge and vice versa," Nurarihyon said, sighing slightly.

"I see…" Rihan nodded slightly, understanding the concept.

"So, everyone! Please listen!" Rikuo quickly attracted everyone's attention again so they could hear Rihan's explanation. They immediately shut up again and now focused their attention at their commander and the ex-commander.

"I'm sorry, but I can't go back with Wakana-san," Rihan said while smiling ruefully.

"EEEH! But why?" everyone asked in unison, looking rather shocked by that. Rikuo and Nurarihyon also wanted to know what he would say to the others even though they already knew the real reasons. Rihan didn't intend to tell them about the time-travel experience, did he?

"Well, you see… after I died, Nura Rihan died too. It's been a long time after that and even though there is something left of what I feel about Wakana-san, I'm no longer in love with her," Rihan said truthfully. "It's a bit sad indeed, but both she and I have moved on, so causing something that is over to start again is very difficult. If there's something I don't remember and then she compares me and the previous Rihan, it will hurt not only me but also her as well, so… let her remember her own Rihan just the way Rihan was," he continued with a small smile and everyone seemed amazed at his explanation.

Rikuo as well, he widened his eyes as he hear that. Comparing this Rihan and Rihan at that time… Rikuo never thought about it, but Rihan was right. If it happened to Rikuo too… what he would do?

Rihan noticed Rikuo's thoughtful look and softened his expression at the older man. Nurarihyon also seemed thoughtful after he heard Rihan's words and saw his expression when he looked at his grandson.

Sly… Rihan still had Nurarihyon's trait after all. He made Rikuo think even though his words weren't actually for Rikuo. He was successful in conveying his feelings and insecurities in a very subtle way that no one but Rikuo or Nurarihyon would understand.

All the youkai seemed to understand his reason even though it was a human thing… because for a human whose lifespan was short, a life was very precious. It couldn't be replaced and it couldn't be restored. A life that was gone once would stay gone and even though the very same soul returned once again to live in this world, that life wasn't the same as the life that had gone.

"I'm Rihan, but not the same Rihan as the previous one. I live in this time and this new life isn't for replacing the life that was gone twenty years ago," Rihan said again with a confident smile now and everyone was even more amazed at that.

Rikuo as well… He closed his eyes and then reached Rihan from behind to hug him, surprising Rihan and the other as well. "You're right…" he whispered softly and tightened his hug on Rihan who widened his eyes now. "Then… let's create a lot of memories of this Rihan… the Rihan I love very much now," he smiled small before releasing the body and let Rihan turn to face him with surprised expression.

"Rikuo…sensei?" Rihan couldn't stop himself from addressing Rikuo that way when Rikuo looked at him as him, not the previous Rihan, with loving understanding eyes. He was totally captivated by Rikuo's look and somehow couldn't help the blush rising on his cheeks as well.

Everyone then looked at them as if they had grown a second head or as if they were faced by an alien from Mars.

Nurarihyon was trying hard not to laugh seeing everyone else's reaction at the spectacle. This public display of affection was indeed very strange if seen from the perspective of the ones that didn't know the entire story. Ryuujin's memory seal was very strong and they still hadn't remembered that Rikuo and Rihan had been lovers in the past.

"Wait… what's with that ambience?" Aotabo asked, paling slightly as they all saw the pink love-love atmosphere around the Sandaime and the ex-Nidaime.

"Well… Rihan-san and I are lovers," Rikuo said while smiling happily, still holding Rihan close to him.

…

…

There was a brief pregnant silence in the room until… "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!" everyone instantly screamed in total shock, as if they were struck by lightning at the news.

"What, you have a problem with that?" Rikuo narrowed his eyes and everyone's shocked expression and screech of mortification immediately stopped at his look.

They shook their heads while trying to hold down their inner screams, protests and confusion with pale faces at Rikuo's challenging tone.

"Rikuo… you've become a very awesome commander, huh…?" Rihan's sweat dropped again seeing how Rikuo could shut them up so effectively just by looking at them. Even Rihan couldn't do that in his time as the commander.

"Of course, because I want to be THE BEST Commander of all youkai, more than Jiichan and Toosan after all," Rikuo said, smiling again cheerily at Rihan who seemed nervous seeing the sudden change of mood and personality.

Maybe Rikuo and Yoru had seriously merged into one after all.

"I see… you've worked very hard, huh, Rikuo…" Rihan smiled as well softly, holding Rikuo's hand gently. His expression made everyone else's heart in the room, Rikuo's included, throb.

"Ri-Rihan-san~!" Rikuo hugged Rihan enthusiastically and Rihan laughed slightly while hugging Rikuo back happily.

Everyone who saw them like that started to murmur and mutter disbelievingly, especially the dark-bluish haired Snow Maiden who had collapsed on the floor weakly, totally whitish.

"So… tha-that's the reason why Waka… is never interested in women…!"

"Tsurara-chan, calm down, calm down…!" Kejorou tried to console the obviously broken hearted Yuki Onna.

"But… how can Rikuo-sama be lovers with Rihan-sama in the first place? I meant… you used to be… father and son…" Kurotabo asked then, after gathering his courage.

Rikuo and Rihan looked at each other for a moment before they grinned.

"That's the point. Used to. But Rihan-san now isn't my father, so… there's no problem," Rikuo said, still not releasing Rihan's arm from his. "Moreover, I fell in love at first sight when we met this morning. I actually fell on top of him. It's a FATE," he continued, reciting their meeting.

"I thought an angel had fallen down from the sky on top of me," Rihan played along. "He's so beautiful that my heart was stolen instantly the moment our eyes met," he continued dreamily.

Everyone paled even more seeing the stupid couple talking like high school girls suffering from love-sickness.

"Uwaaaah! I don't want to see Waka and Rihan-sama like thaaaaat! Rikuo-sama you idiooooot!" Tsurara cried and ran out of the room comically. More beads of sweats rolled down the others cheeks seeing the ridiculous reaction.

"Tsurara-chan!" Kejorou called out in surprise, and Kubinahi seemed like he was about to run after her or he actually wanted to run away from the room too seeing his master and the ex-master's idiotic, out of character behavior.

"Let her be. Tsurara often does that when she sees something unpleasant for her," Rikuo immediately said, stopping Kubinashi who cringed and clicked his tongue, feeling very unlucky because he couldn't run away now.

"Well, that's my grandson. Always does what he wants without restraint," Nurarihyon chuckled then, seeing that the pair could finally show their love without any fear and insecurities. Obviously, he was also amused seeing all of the youkai's faces which were still in shock and disbelief.

Well, time would wear the shock off and they would embrace another peculiar thing about their commander who seemed always to defy norm. It was Nura Gumi specialty after all. It wasn't that strange anymore….

~Rihan x Rikuo~

You and I just have a dream

To find our love a place, where we can hide away*

~Rihan x Rikuo~

Rikuo then escorted Rihan out of Nura Gumi mansion, with Sakura petals dancing in the breeze, beautifying the yard extraordinarily.

"I'm glad everyone seems happy having you back, Rihan-san…" Rikuo said, still holding Rihan's hand as they stood in front of the gates.

"Yeah… their shocked faces were very interesting though," Rihan chuckled amusedly.

"Indeed. I wonder what Mom will say if she meets you as well…" Rikuo then looked down. He had thought about it excessively after the subject was brought in their conversation earlier.

"Yah… let's keep this from Wakana-san a little longer. I don't want to shock her with multiple surprises. First I'm going to meet her accidentally and then I'll tell her that I'm dating her son," Rihan said slowly, leaning on Rikuo's head as he closed his eyes and thought.

"Yeah, that sounded more natural… if you weren't my student," Rikuo said, suddenly remembering that their relationship weren't legal yet.

"Damn. I forgot about that one," Rihan also realized, opening his eyes and clicking his tongue.

Rikuo laughed. "Well, it's easier than the obstacles we had to go through before… and I intend to have you for myself now," Rikuo looked upward slightly to Rihan's golden clear eyes. They were the same as the previous Rihan, but also slightly different. It was more… alive and that look, that gaze… they were reserved for Rikuo and Rikuo alone.

"Now, that's not fair… Rikuo belongs to everyone, but I only belong to Rikuo?" Rihan reached to caress Rikuo's soft cheek, raising his eyebrow questioningly to Rikuo.

"My heart have already belonged to you since the day I was born… even before that," Rikuo smiled gently, putting his hand on Rihan's hand on his cheek, nuzzling it affectionately.

Rihan also smiled and leaned down to kiss those soft kissable pink lips. "I'll take that as a promise, Rikuo-sensei," Rihan whispered lovingly and Rikuo couldn't help but surging up to kiss Rihan lips again, moving his hands to Rihan's collar to pull him down, deepening their kiss.

"I love you, Rihan…" Rikuo confessed his feeling again after they released their kiss, in between panting and short breathing. "I'm in love with you… and this time… we'll be together… for the rest of our lives…"

"Couldn't agree more," Rihan curved his hands on Rikuo's waist and held his body closer to him tenderly. "You and I… together…."

You and I were just made

To love each other now, forever and a day*

End of NGD Special: Omake

Additional Notes:

*Taken from 'You and I' lyrics sung by Scorpion

A/N: Dear god, it's a very long omake. It's like an extra bonus chapter or some short… Well, I finally made this because some of you need an explanation (read them in the review) of why Rihan can come back to this world, right? It's to fill the blank. Here's the explanation. Tell me if you need more explanations about another thing because maybe to answer your curiosity, I'll probably make another extra chapter like this.

Especially to Snow Leopard Pasha who is curious of how Rikuo tells his friends about his real identity as the Sandaime of the Nura Clan, I leave that to Shiibashi-sensei in his Nuramago plot in Hyaku Monogatari Arc. Read it. That's what happens, so I'll let it stay as CANON ^_^. Nura's Golden Days time-setting happens between Kyoto Arc and Hyaku Monogatari Arc after all, and way after that Arc, so the characterization of the characters can be more flexible since we don't know how Rikuo's character will develop when he's 25, no?

So… I'm waiting for your opinion of the omake. Review! XD
