Nura's Golden Days Special 3—Here Now and After

Part 4 (Final)

The private party of Kiyotsugu and Rinko's engagement went smoothly. Kana even sang for them in the private room of the restaurant, congratulating the both man and woman for the happiness that they would gain and share together.

"Kana-chan's voice is wonderful…!" Natsumi said, getting very excited as she heard the soft tunes of the beautiful love song.

"She's gifted, alright," Shima said, smiling proudly.

"And she sings from the bottom of her heart," Rihan smiled as well, seriously respecting the popular singer as a fellow worker in showbiz world.

"A lot of her songs are dedicated to her friends after all. Most of them for Nura-kun, though," Kiyotsugu said, smiling as well.

Rikuo blushed slightly at that. "What? H-how can you conjure up something as specific as that?" he asked, pretty embarrassed that he was back into the center of conversation.

"A lot of implications in her song lyrics; like a hidden prayer… one of that from the 'First Moon Love' lyric, 'I know the moon is too high to reach, but I still want it to shine on me'? That's totally confessing her love to the one she couldn't get, right?" Maki contributed her idea, giggling slightly.

"Yeah, she is poetic for making a personification of moon, as a replacement for Rikuo-kun," Yura added.

"Ah jeez… you guys…" Rikuo covered his flushing face now. "She could be talking about someone else…" he mumbled, still hiding from the world.

"But… she must have loved Rikuo very much, huh? I suddenly feel bad that I had stolen your heart even before I was born…" Rihan said, looking slightly rueful.

Rikuo looked up from his arm to the man beside him that looked at the woman on the stage who was singing her heart out to bring happiness to the happy soon to be married couple. Rikuo smiled warmly at the view. He reached out to hold Rihan's hand, earning the younger guy's attention.

"Rikuo…?" Rihan turned to face the Japanese History teacher who looked at him softly.

"She could be singing about my heart to you as well in those lyrics," Rikuo said, closing his eyes slowly. "At that time… I thought you were out of my reach too… because we were separated by time and life," he continued.

Rihan blinked slightly at that before smiling as well. He leaned closer to Rikuo who rested his head on his arm on the table and then kissed his hair softly with happy look.

"Wait… what was that for?" Rikuo looked at Rihan, a bead of sweat rolling down his face.

"Just to show you that I didn't regret getting reborn to find you again," Rihan said, throwing that sexy enticing gaze that always melted Rikuo's heart whenever he saw it.

"Silly…" Rikuo of course blushed again cutely seeing such sincere expression and hearing such earnest lines. He was the luckiest guy- err… quarter youkai in the world for finding a mate as passionate as Rihan.

"Seriously… those two are too romantic it's getting too hot here!" Shima said, fanning himself while blushing slightly. Natsumi, Yura and Maki nodded in unison while Kiyotsugu and Rinko's sweat dropped seeing it. Kana smiled in her singing as well seeing that.

"It's uncanny to let a human and a youkai breed," Mamiru said tonelessly and the others turned to face him with more beads of sweat on their cheeks, looking nervous. Of course, except Rikuo and Rihan who were in their own world right then.

"Mamiru-kun…" Yura sighed deeply at the heartless reply her body guard had said.

"Well, you don't have to be worried about breeding between youkai and human if they are both males, right?" Kiyotsugu tried to make a joke out of that, chuckling slightly.

"Well, that made sense," Shima agreed, laughing slightly.

"And they are such an eye candy…" Natsumi sighed dreamily seeing two hot and cute guys getting lovey-dovey with each other.

"That is sooo true," Maki totally agreed with her.

Rinko seemed to be thoughtful as she heard the conversation before she smiled slightly. "Hey, I want to speak with Rihan-sama for awhile if it's okay. Why don't you and Rikuo-kun take a stroll to the veranda?" she said to Kiyotsugu, looking hopeful for some reasons.

"Eeh?" Kiyotsugu seemed to mind that. "You're not trying to cheat on me on our engagement party, are you?" he asked Rinko, looking worried.

Rinko giggled at him. "Silly. There's no way I'd do that. Besides, getting in the middle of Rikuo-sama and Rihan-sama will totally earn a curse to our family," she giggled some more at that.

Kiyotsugu didn't seem to find that funny as he sighed deeply. "Okay… just because I want to speak to Nura-kun, not because I'm okay with you speaking to that… Rihan guy," the dark haired man sulked a bit then.

Rinko shook her head slightly seeing his antics. She then stood up and approached Rihan to speak with him after she told Rikuo that Kiyotsugu wanted to speak with Rikuo alone as well.

Rikuo immediately stood and approached Kiyotsugu to speak to him. "What's wrong, Kiyotsugu-kun?" he asked the taller man curiously.

"Ah, why don't we talk outside? I want to have a smoke," Kiyotsugu said while tapping a box of cigarettes in his breast pocket.

"Oh, sure," Rikuo nodded before Kiyotsugu stood as well and they went together to the veranda.

~Rihan x Rikuo~

"It's such a nice party, Rinko-san," Rihan said, smiling nicely like he was on the job.

Rinko blushed slightly seeing his expression. "Oh my… you are really my type, Rihan-sama," she said, holding her pink cheeks, very embarrassed. "Rikuo-sama is such a lucky man to have you…. I'm so glad that you don't date any woman because I'm sure I'd be so jealous of that woman if you did," she continued.

"Ahahaha," Rihan laughed nervously at that, a bead of sweat rolling down his cheek. "Well, all honors goes to me," he said, softening his expression as he spoke about Rikuo. "I'd caused him so much pain in years because I wasn't reborn quick enough… and we had to endure not touching each other until I had graduated high school because Rikuo didn't want to violate the code of teacher-student relationship. He was pretty stubborn as well about it. I couldn't imagine how he could wait all those years… without knowing if we would meet again… and yet he still loves me… always…" Rihan closed his eyes as he remembered their parting in the previous life.

Rihan remembered that he was murdered in front of little Rikuo's eyes. He also remembered how Rikuo disappeared from his life those decades ago.

"I… am very lucky to still have a chance to be with Rikuo again… despite what we have gone through, each of us… I'll give up the world just to be together with him again…" Rihan said again smiling happily.

"…Rikuo-sama… is Rihan-sama's high school teacher?" Rinko widened her eyes.

"Eh, haven't he told you? I was his student until before graduation last winter."

"B-but… if you've been lovers since Rihan-sama was in high school, then… it's been three years?" Rinko asked again.

"Yeah, it's kind of hard to hold back when your loved one is right in front of you, right? I'd caused a lot of trouble for Rikuo too, during that time," Rihan chuckled, laughing sheepishly.

"Then… even after your debut as a new actor when you were 17, you have been dating each other that time too?" Rinko's eyes widened more if it was possible.

"Yep, but this kind of thing will be bad if it gets out, right? Moreover, Rikuo's popularity could kill a person if his fans found out. My agency made me keep our relationship a secret, and Rikuo said it was okay to date in secret too. I was kind of disappointed because I'm a selfish guy. I want to announce to the world that Rikuo… that wonderful man… is my lover. Well, it's not easy to date each other in secret… but… being together with Rikuo makes me very happy and comfortable. It's like I'm finally home after a long day of struggle and effort," Rihan explained honestly.

Rinko smiled as she heard that. She seemed to realize that Rihan was pretty much in love and would always be in love with Rikuo after hearing that kind of speech from the younger man. She sighed slightly in relief at that.

"Hoo… such deep conversation you have there," Maki suddenly sat beside Rinko, her child on her lap.

"Maki-san?" Rinko turned to the blond woman with questioning look.

"Yeah, you guys are talking about something very important about Rikuo-kun, right? We want to hear too," Natsumi said while sitting beside Rihan as well.

"Include us too!" Kana, Yura and Shima said as well after the Pop Singer finished her song.

Rihan smiled tenderly as they started to talk about Rikuo when he was pretty much still a brat. They talked about Rikuo's past, a past that Rihan had missed because he couldn't be by his side when Rikuo was growing up. Rihan pretty much understood now why Rikuo loved them very much. They treasured Rikuo and they wouldn't let Rihan get away if he hurt Rikuo.

Rihan just wished that… he had that kind of friends as well when he was growing up.

~Rihan x Rikuo~

Kiyotsugu lit his cigarette as he and Rikuo looked out at the night view outside. It was still a bit cold despite they were in the middle of spring season.

"I didn't know that you smoke now," Rikuo said, moving closer to Kiyotsugu.

"I don't always smoke. Just at times when things get to be overwhelming…" Kiyotsugu snickered slightly, getting kind of nervous as Rikuo stood so closely to him.

"Overwhelming, huh?" Rikuo smiled slightly, almost smirking.

"Well… meeting all of you now… and hearing a lot of shocking things… You've got to admit that they are overwhelming… especially hearing your ex-crush got together with a man…" Kiyotsugu chuckled at that, thinking that it was quite silly.

"Eh?" Rikuo looked upward to Kiyotsugu who looked at Rikuo tenderly.

"You didn't realize it, did you? I used to have a crush on you," Kiyotsugu said smiling easily.

…

…

"Huh?" Rikuo widened his eyes after being silent for almost a full minute.

Kiyotsugu chuckled again seeing Rikuo gape. "I did. I just… thought that you were straight, so it was impossible, that's why I was so shocked finding you together with that guy," he said again.

"B-but… I thought you had a crush on Yoru…" Rikuo stuttered, his face red, seeming to panic.

"My feeling for the Commander is adoration and of course I like him a lot… but my heart only beat fast when I was close to you back then. I realized that 'Ah… I fell for this guy' or something, but… I couldn't tell you how I feel after what I did to you when we were little. I was quite a bully after all, and you suffered a lot of being called a liar back then, right? I still feel guilty even until now. I haven't had a chance to say 'I'm sorry' to you, so… I feel I don't have right to say 'I love you' as well…" Kiyotsugu explained then.

"Kiyotsugu-kun…" Rikuo looked at Kiyotsugu in a concerned look now.

"It's okay, Nura-kun. I've long since given up," Kiyotsugu said. "Now I'm pretty much in love with Rinko and she still accepts me despite knowing how I felt about you back then… she's a very understanding and kind woman. I finally found the one," Kiyotsugu said again before he turned serious. "How about you? Are you happy now, Nura-kun?"

Rikuo blinked once as he heard the question and he smiled surely as a response. "Yeah," he said clearly.

"You seem to be melancholy enough when you saw Maki-san, Shima-kun and Angela-chan earlier, so I thought that you weren't yet satisfied with your life," Kiyotsugu asked despite his relief seeing how certain Rikuo was with his own happiness.

"Ah… that's because there's one more thing that I want to have to complete that happiness," Rikuo said, smiling cutely.

"One more thing?" Kiyotsugu blinked slightly at that. Rikuo blushed as he looked away. His expression was very suspicious. "What are you thinking, Nura-kun?"

Rikuo then looked around as if he didn't want anyone else to hear. He moved closer to Kiyotsugu before he stood on his toe and whispered something in Kiyotsugu's ear.

Kiyotsugu widened his eyes as he heard it. "Eeeeeh?"

~Rihan x Rikuo~

It was past midnight when Kiyotsugu and Rinko decided to end the party.

"Thank you very much for coming to our private party. It means a lot that you guys care because all my life, I've never have such close friends like all of you. Even after we parted ways some years ago, I've always wanted to go back to those years we spent together as close friends. I hope we can still be friends like that from now on till the rest of our lives," Kiyotsugu said, looking very happy as he said it.

"Of course! We feel totally the same, Kiyotsugu-kun!" Shima said, looking very touched and happy as well. Everyone else nodded cheerily in unison.

"May you guys be blessed with a lot of happiness from now on," Yura said, smiling sincerely.

"May the two of you be blessed with a lot of luck and a future child if you decide to have one," Maki said, grinning happily as well.

"May you and Rinko be blessed with long lasting love for the rest of your lives," Rikuo said, hugging Kiyotsugu dearly after that.

Kiyotsugu blushed slightly at that before he laughed, hugging Rikuo back. They seemed about to cry at that moment, but everyone held back their tears for the sake of their smiles and laughs to continue.

"May our family give their blessing to your happiness and the future that you've chosen…."

Kiyotsugu snapped in surprise at the sudden voice from the door. Everyone was also quite surprised at the sudden appearance of an old man on the wheelchair with a young man in reddish brown hair behind him.

"Ojii…chan…?" Kiyotsugu widened his eyes so much as he recognized the old man on the chair as his own grandfather. "Ojiichan!" he then immediately ran to kneel beside him. "Why are you here…? You're supposed to be in the nursing home…"

"Hah, no one can stop this Kiyomasa from attending his own grandchild's engagement party. Who do you think I am, brat?" Kiyomasa asked, smirking in full spirit despite his frail condition as an old man that was over 90 year old.

"Ojiichan… dad will be very furious if he finds out about this later," Kiyotsugu said, looking very concerned.

"Don't worry, Kiyotsugu-sama. If Master finds out, I'll think of something to deter his attention," the young man behind Kiyomasa said with a nice smile.

"Tetsu-kun…" Kiyotsugu looked at him with a small relieved smile.

"You've become such fine young man, Kiyotsugu… Let me see my grandchild's soon to be bride," Kiyomasa said then with a smile and Kiyotsugu expression brightened ten folds.

"Rinko-san! Please come here! Ojiichan wants to see you!" Kiyotsugu said to his fiancée and she immediately moved closer to him and the old man.

"Nice to meet you,Ojii-sama. I'm Rinko, Kiyotsugu's fiancée. I hope you give us your blessing to be together," Rinko said, kneeling beside the chair as well.

"Ooh, such a fine mannered young lady… and she's pretty as well. Those scales are very fancy and beautiful in your face, young lady. You look sparkling and more alive," Kiyomasa said and Rinko looked startled before she smiled happily.

"Yes, thank you, Ojii-sama!" Rinko said, looking very touched because Kiyomasa said the same thing as Kiyotsugu about her scales. She was very pleased that Kiyotsugu seemed to inherit this good man's heart.

"Everyone! Come here! I'd like you guys to meet my genius Grandfather who had built Kiyojyuuji Family Business from scratch since he was young!" Kiyotsugu then called his friends to meet his grandpa one by one.

They all greeted Kiyomasa respectfully and cheerfully until the frail old man met Rihan's clear golden gaze. "Oh… Ooooh! Long time no see! Rihan…! You are Nura Rihan, right? It's been so long…! So long… and you haven't changed a bit," he said, reaching out before holding Rihan's hand.

The younger man looked very surprised before his expression turned totally nostalgic at that meeting. "Kiyomasa…! You stubborn ass… you're actually… still alive…!" Rihan said slowly, looking at Kiyomasa with teary eyes after getting over the initial shock.

He wore Nura's Rihan's expression now and despite how young he was, he looked like that guy from seventy years ago who was best friends with the old man in front of him.

"I missed you… I thought you weren't around anymore…" Kiyomasa said, reaching and caressing Rihan's hair tenderly.

"Moron… you were the one who suddenly disappeared to some odd countries, right? You left Japan decades ago… I thought you were already dead as well…" Rihan said, looking at Kiyomasa's still clear eyes despite those wrinkles on his skin, tenderly.

Kiyomasa chuckled slightly. "I was trying to change the fate of my family's future… and look, I did it. I turned the Yakuza Family into one of the Richest Chain of Groups in Japan," he said with childish mirth as if he was back to his younger days. "I always want to show you… that there's always a way to change our fate… I want to show you that you can be happy once again if you look for that happiness earnestly enough…"

Kiyomasa stopped talking when his eyes caught the image of a young man that stood behind Rihan. His eyes visibly widened as he met the dark honey colored eyes of Rikuo.

"You… Rikuo…?" Kiyomasa mumbled in disbelief.

"It's been awhile, Kiyomasa-san…" Rikuo smiled at him, seeming to be a little surprised as well that Kiyomasa actually remembered him. Apparently, Ryuujin's seal of his memory was broken when he saw Rihan again. Then, it meant that Kiyomasa cared about Rihan a lot more than everyone had ever thought.

"How… can you still be in that form… even after more than seventy years…?" Kiyomasa seemed to be very shocked at that revelation.

Rikuo moved closer and knelt beside Rihan, looking at Kiyomasa eyes softly as well. "There's a very long story to that. Maybe we can meet each other later so we can tell you a lot of things…" Rikuo said, holding Kiyomasa's hand that was still holding Rihan's.

"That's true, Kiyomasa. Let us visit you to catch up sometimes. I'm so happy we can meet again…" Rihan said, putting his other hand on top of Rikuo's and Kiyomasa's as well, smiling softly.

"You two…" Kiyomasa seemed to be thoughtful for awhile before softening his expression as well. "Of course… you are together even until now…. Are you happy now, Rihan…?" he asked then, surprising Rihan at first.

"Yes… very much…" Rihan said, after softening his expression once more and closing his eyes joyfully.

"Thank god…, thank god…." Kiyomasa actually cried at that, his tears falling down freely on his cheeks. Tetsu dutifully dried his tears after that using a clean handkerchief he had brought.

Rikuo's friends, including Kiyotsugu and Rinko inside the room looked totally flabbergasted at that scene. The fact that both Rikuo and Rihan actually seemed to be very familiar with Kiyomasa and how Kiyomasa seemed to be very happy meeting both young men… and the plot hole in their conversation; after all, both Rihan and Rikuo shouldn't have been born sixty years ago…

"Ah," Natsumi clapped her hands in front of her chest. "Rihan-kun said he was reborn to meet Rikuo-kun… so it was possible that Kiyomasa-jiichan and Rihan-kun were friends in Rihan-kun's past life!" She seemed to be very proud of herself for catching up with the situation pretty quickly.

Maki, Kana, Yura, Shima, Kiyotsugu and Rinko turned to face her so fast they almost snapped their neck. "Oooh!" they then clapped their hands as well in understanding after digesting the information.

"Tetsu-kun, it's been awhile as well," Rikuo then greeted the man that posed as Kiyomasa's assistant. He instantly knew that this Tetsu was the same as Tetsunaga at that time.

"Sharp intuition… did you decide to follow Rihan-san to become a youkai or something?" Tetsu asked with a small smile.

"I see… you turned into a youkai, huh…?" Rikuo looked at Tetsu forlornly, showing a little bit of sympathy.

"It was my choice. I decided that I will protect this person for the rest of his life," Tetsu looked at Kiyomasa who was still speaking with Rihan with youthful mirth in his clear dark grey eyes. "He seems very happy meeting Rihan-san again," he smiled softly after that.

"Rihan looks very happy too. I guess… Kiyomasa-san is the only human friend Rihan-san has ever had that really cares about him after all…" Rikuo smiled as well, seeing how happy Rihan was talking to Kiyomasa. "Though… this Rihan isn't the same as Rihan-san at that time," he continued.

"Now that I could feel it… this Rihan is… totally human. On the contrary, you are the one who doesn't smell exactly like a human anymore," Tetsu set a confused look at Rikuo.

Rikuo grinned. "We really should talk sometime later. There are a lot of things that I and Rihan want to share with you guys," he said, grinning cheerfully.

Tetsunaga blinked once before smiling again. "Surely," he said, grinning as well.

~Rihan x Rikuo~

Thirty minutes after the arrival of Kiyotsugu's grandfather, after the little chit-chatting with the old man and his assistant, the party was really over this time. Everyone looked visibly exhausted as they got out of the private room while Kiyomasa was taking care of all the tabs.

Kiyomasa insisted because he couldn't do much when Kiyotsugu had a fight with his father and hadn't yet reconciled with each other until now. It seemed he felt guilty because he couldn't 100 percent believe that Kiyotsugu could survive with his own ability. However, he was proven wrong. Kiyotsugu had become very successful only ten years after he decided to leave the house. It was a reward from Kiyomasa.

"Since we will be surrounded by both our fangirls and fanboys, stay close to me until we're clear of the obstacles, okay?" Rikuo warned his friends while everyone just threw him a ridiculous look.

"It's his Nurari-Kurari Technique," Mamiru seemed to try to explain because Rikuo refused to do so.

"Aaah! I see! So that's why we were never found out when we had a date!" Rihan seemed to just realize all of sudden.

"Eh, what's with that Nurari-Kurari Technique?" Shima asked, looking confused.

"Jeez, Shima-kun, you'd been in Kiyo Cross Supernatural Investigation Squad for more than six years and you still don't know? It's one of Nurarihyon's techniques that allow him to sneak in and out of people's house to eat their food and drink their sake without being detected!" Kiyotsugu bragged out about his knowledge about youkai again, just like they were in middle school and high school.

"Oops… sorry," Shima scratched his cheek sheepishly.

"Basically, it's a thieving technique," Mamiru continued, looking confident with that conclusion.

How harsh!—was probably on the others' minds at that moment, while Rikuo laughed nervously. Mamiru was so unmerciful as always.

"Eh, but… Rikuo-kun doesn't usually use his technique around his friends when we were younger, right?" Kana said, smiling slightly.

"There's no point since you guys never considered him a youkai even without him being sneaking around about it," Yura giggled.

"Oh man…! That's totally true! If we weren't involved in that Hyaku Monogatari Clan fiasco, we'd never notice!" Shima agreed with that, totally.

"I was so pathetic because I didn't even realize the commander was beside us all the time…" Kiyotsugu cried slightly and pitifully at that.

"Well, Rikuo-kun was a very reserved person at that time…, we'd never consider him as a youkai if we didn't see his change with our own eyes," Maki admitted, sweating slightly.

"Basically, we were really dense when we were still brats huh?" Natsumi chuckled at that thought.

"But… since you guys are my precious friends, I don't want you to get caught in the crossfire between youkai, so I was thankful that you were dense. That time… I thought the more you knew the more likely that you guys would be in danger because of my youkai blood. I want you to stay safe always," Rikuo turned to face them all and smiled at them kindly, stunning them slightly.

"Rikuo-sama is such a national treasure…" Rinko almost cried, seeming to be totally moved by Rikuo's determination.

"That is my beloved Rikuo…" Rihan hugged Rikuo from behind so suddenly, surprising the Sandaime.

"Whoah! Idiot! You're ruining my concentra—!"

"KYAAAAA! LOOK! ALL THE CELEBRITIES ARE RIGHT THERE!"

The sudden scream from one of the fan girls that noticed their party the moment Rikuo's concentration of his jutsu was broken, gained a lot more attentions by the others.

"No way! Really?"

"KYAAAAA! It's Rihan-sama and Rikuo-sama!"

"Oh my GOD! Is that the super model Maki Saori?"

"KYAAAAH! It's the Soccer Player, Shima Jiro!"

"Hey! Isn't that… the super popular singer Ienaga Kana?"

"Where?"

"Oh WOW! The best seller novelist Torii Natsumi is there as well!"

Rikuo and friends immediately paled at the scream that came one after another.

"Shit—!" Rihan cursed.

"RUN!" Rikuo shouted before they all ran like mad to get away from the rabid fans that would surely run after them till the ends of the world.

~Rihan x Rikuo~

"See you guys sometime again!" Everyone said their goodbyes.

"Don't forget to call and mail each other sometimes, kay?"

"Bye-bye!"

Finally, Rikuo and friends parted ways by calling cabs so they could safely go home. Everyone went home with their respective partners.

"Oh yeah, Nura-kun! Good luck with your wish!" Kiyotsugu grinned widely before he and Rinko got onto the car and left as well.

Kurotabo even came to pick Natsumi up. He was kind of pale when Rikuo glared at him dangerously before he and Natsumi left.

"Don't be so harsh on Kuro," Rihan laughed.

"Jeez, he should have said something if they are together," Rikuo grumbled.

"Oh yeah… what did Kiyotsugu mean by the wish, just now?" Rihan suddenly remembered about that and Rikuo blushed slightly.

Rikuo was hesitant for a moment before he looked up at Rihan and said "I… kind of told Kiyotsugu-kun… that I want to have a child with you."

…

…

"Eh?" Rihan widened his eyes at that. "Um… you do realize we are male, right? Males can't get pregnant…" the dark haired college guy slash actor seemed to panic now.

"Of course I know that, but… in the youkai circle, who knows what strange things can happen, right?" Rikuo grinned. "I believe there's a way for us to have one… a child. Don't you want to have a child with me, Rihan?" he asked, looking at Rihan's clear golden eyes hopefully.

Rihan was silent for a moment, seeming to debate inside his head. After all, he was only 18. What he could do to be a father? Of course there was the experience of his previous life, but still…

"Who will get pregnant?" Rihan seemed to have to make sure about that one thing first.

"Is that what you're worrying about? You don't want to be the one conceiving?" A vein popped on Rikuo's head.

"Eh? It's not like that! It's just… if I have a child with you, I'd like to make sure that I can raise the child well! I can't work if I have to get pregnant, so…!" Rihan seemed to be honest about that, so Rikuo chuckled slightly.

"Silly, you are the lover of Sandaime from the Nura Clan. Do the math," Rikuo sniggered.

"Oh, damn…! You are so unfair for planting that image in my mind…! Now I want to see you get pregnant!" Rihan then hugged Rikuo tightly, blushing furiously because the pregnant Rikuo would look very sexy as hell.

Rikuo laughed again, hugging Rihan back. "I love you… Rihan…" he whispered slightly kissing Rihan's neck slightly.

"I love you too…. I really… want to have a family with you…" Rihan said back, kissing Rikuo's forehead lovingly.

"I'll ask grandpa if there's a way for me to get pregnant with our child," Rikuo said again. "We'll be complete if we have him…" he said, smiling tenderly.

"How do you know it will be a boy?" Rihan asked.

"It's Nura's gene thing. Nurarihyon's direct line will always be a boy." Rikuo said.

"I see… I might have to get ready, huh? What if I fell in love with the baby as well?" Rihan grinned teasingly.

"Then I'd share you with him," Rikuo snickered as Rihan blinked, and then the dark haired man laughed as well.

"We'll totally be happy, right?" Rihan asked, holding Rikuo more closely.

"Yeah…" Rikuo said, staring at Rihan's eyes softly before they kissed each other's lips affectionately.

They would be happy.

They would always be happy… because they would have each other and they were about to create another miracle after this…

A miracle that would seal their eternal love and happiness….

~Rihan x Rikuo~

Rinko and Kiyotsugu were holding hands on the way back to their small but comfortable house.

"Did you tell him how you felt about him all those years ago, Kiyotsugu?" Rinko asked tenderly at her soon to be husband and Kiyotsugu smiled.

"Yeah… now I feel freer than ever," Kiyotsugu said, bringing her hand to kiss its back. "Thank you… for believing in me and my love for you," he said softly.

Rinko smiled happily before she gave him an affectionate kiss on his lips. "It's because I love you as much as you do me," she said after she released the kiss.

"I'm the luckiest guy in the world for finding you," Kiyotsugu said before he kissed her again, more deeply and more passionately.

Kiyotsugu was certain, that she was the one, and nothing could make him give up on her.

Not even his own parents if they still didn't accept Kiyotsugu's choice.

~Rihan x Rikuo~

Maki, Jiro and Angela were on the cab back to their hotel as they were still chuckling and snickering together at so many unexpected news they got that day.

"But man… the most shocking thing of all is that Nura ended up with a guy. I really didn't see that coming at all. I still couldn't believe it," Jiro chuckled at that, shaking his head.

"Really? I think it's bound to happen sooner or later, since he's surrounded by those hot youkai… oh, and he has that total uke aura too. I bet he had ever done it with his own alter ego," Maki laughed at that. Jeez, the BL world was really interesting after all.

"I… don't follow what you're talking about…" Jiro's sweat dropped at that.

"Don't worry, Jiro-kun. It's just BL," Maki giggled before she kissed Jiro's cheek.

"BL…?" Jiro set a confused look and Maki wanted to tease him some more because he was such a thick guy.

Angela only giggled, seeming to understand what her mother was trying to do despite still being a little girl.

~Rihan x Rikuo~

Kurotabo sighed deeply as he walked together with Natsumi.

"What's with the long face, Kuro-san?" Natsumi asked, concerned.

"Well…Sandaime finally knew…. That look he gave me just now promised something painful…" Kurotabo actually almost cried at that.

"It's okay. Rikuo-kun heard my reasons. He won't be too harsh in punishing you, Kuro-san," Natsumi smiled childishly.

"That meant he's still going to punish me, right?" Kurotabo couldn't help dreading his fate if the time came.

But… maybe it would be worth it. So long as Kurotabo could be together with Natsumi.

~Rihan x Rikuo~

"Hey, Mamiru-kun… you were really joking when you asked if you were really only my body guard, right?" Yura couldn't help getting curious about it. After all it wasn't like Mamiru at all to joke about it in a situation like that.

Mamiru was silent, his expression hard to read as always. "Are you going to be mad if I tell you that I really want to be more than just a body guard?" he asked, finally and Yura blushed slightly at that.

She didn't say anything, but then she reached out to grab Mamiru's hand, surprising Mamiru a little bit. "You have to learn to disobey Niichan's words if you want to date me… since he'll get pretty worked up if he finds out," she said, resting her head on Mamiru's shoulder, still holding his hand close.

"… I already disobeyed his orders by sneaking you out of the main house…" Mamiru said slowly, tightening his hold on Yura's hand.

"Yeah… you're right…" Yura smiled cheerily. In the end, she would be the one who could bring the old Mamiru back before he was brainwashed by her brother, Ryuuji. Even though he still had to learn to think for himself, it was an improvement that he wanted to hear her selfish request, defying her brother's order.

Little by little… Yura would get Mamiru for herself, someday….

~Rihan x Rikuo~

Kana had just arrived to her house and closed the front door when someone greeted her from the inside.

"Welcome back. How is the party?" A man with reddish brown hair asked from the sofa.

Kana smiled at him. "It's very lively and everyone changed so much, and yet, at the same time, they didn't change at all," she said putting her bag down before she sat beside the man.

"I see… So, how is our dearest Rikuo-kun?" the man asked then with a smile.

"He's very healthy and happy. Oh, and he's dating a guy now," Kana answered, resting her head on the man's shoulder.

"Oh? Must be extraordinary guy that can steal Rikuo-kun's attention, right? After all, he's the only guy that couldn't fall in love with you," the man caressed her soft long brown hair, sounding very ecstatic.

"Yes… an extraordinary guy from the past life…" Kana mumbled, chuckling slightly before she went silent for awhile.

Both Kana and the man beside her were relaxed in that comfortable silence until Kana spoke again softly. "Hey, Seimei-san… Do you think he will understand if I tell him that… Seimei-san is my husband now?" she asked slowly, a bit concerned.

"Why won't he understand?" Seimei asked back, looking and sounding slightly confused.

"Well… you guys used to be such mortal enemies and all…" Kana looked up at the face of Abe no Seimei, Nue, worriedly.

"I don't think he'll mind… I'm already purified. I no longer have any desire to destroy this world or to make the darkness rule the world…. After my defeat at that time… and the fact that you saved my life and gave me a new life, I want to live solely to fulfill your heart desire now… Kana," he said touching Kana's hand and then giving it a soft kiss.

"Really?" Kana smiled happily at that.

"Yes… really…" Seimei said, pulling her closer and hugging her tenderly.

Because even the bad guy deserves his own happy ending…—that was what Kana believed. Even though Seimei used to be a very bad guy, he had changed now and Kana was happy being together with him.

Yes… that was the most important thing….

End of NGD Special 3—Here Now and After

A/N: *snickers* I bet all of you didn't see that last scene coming. I didn't see it either *lol* Surprise, surprise! I just thought it would be very interesting to add a twist in the end! XD What do you think, dear readers? Yeah, Rikuo wanted to have a baby *lol* and Kana's husband is a reformed Seimei! =D Maybe this Special Story can expand a lot longer, but I guess this is it for the third installment for NGD Special 3.

I actually planned to make one more NGD special story with the setting of that ten year gap between after Rihan was born and before Rihan met Rikuo again in his second life. Maybe another cross-over with Durarara! wouldn't be such a bad thing, telling Rihan's story with his troublesome second life, added by the craziness of Ikebukuro. After all, he would live together with Heiwajima Shizuo *grins*

Well, at least I finish this one story first. I need to be more active in writing and take a slight break from drawing. I'm too addicted to drawing that my fanfics are neglected TT_TT Sorry.

Anyway, I need your feedback now, everyone! See you again in the next story!
