Chapter 8
READ HERE:
"Can we take this conversation to my office?" Akashi interrupted. He gestured at Seien and then grabbed you before walking to the direction of his home office.
Akashi let you inside his office.
"Akashi-san,"
"Seijurou." He corrected.
"Seijurou-san," you sighed, "I was being selfish for signing your papers."
"Ah yes, about the papers..." Akashi walked to his table where a brown envelope was placed, he took out few papers out of it. "I believe we cannot pull out the papers anymore. It has been processed and is already registered."
"Wait- that fast?"
"Yes. Shishido-san sent this earlier." He showed you the papers.
Marriage licence and the Akashi Family Registry where you and Seien's name was officially added.
"This means we're-"
"Officially married. You are now the officially the lady of the house, my wife."
"Is there a way to cancel this?"
"The only way is to have a divorce--annulment, but it will take time. And I don't recommend doing that--specially not when Tomoe is right after the custody of Seien."
"But I dont want to cause more trouble."
"I already know what kind of trouble I am associating myself in when I asked for you to sign the papers the other night. There are no regrets."
"But how about your happiness? When you found the right person that you want to marry? What if she question the reason behind you being a divorced man-'
"That will not happen." Akashi assured you.
"You cannot say that, you don't know what happens in the future." You looked guiltily at Akashi. "I'm very sorry Akashi-san, you wouldn't be in this mess if I-"
"Don't think about that too much. For now we will have yo focus on securing your position for Seien's custody." Akashi reminded you, "My men delivered a mail today, it was addressed to your house when Sora-san was not home." Akashihanded you the white envelope.
You examined the letter, it was addressed to you coming from Ichinose's firm.
Your eyes widened. She was not bluffing. There was indeed a letter addressed to you.
You opened it and started reading the contents...
It was stated there that they are asking for a DNA test to prove that Seien is related to the Tomoe's. If Proven that they are related, they will file for legal custody of the boy since they are more capable also they can provide a happy family and environment for Seien than to be with a single working mother.
Also added on the bottom was another case that his wife filed- it was hiding the child from its biological father. Seien's existence is now the future of the Tomoe's and so on.
You closed your eyes and breathed out heavily.
Akashi watched the stressed look on your face- he didn't like it.
"I don't have to ask for the content of the letter, it is already written all over your face." He said.
"They're asking for a DNA test." You quietly said.
"If you decline, they will be forced to let the court handle everything that might cause a post-trauma experience for Seien."
"Ichinose-san said the same thing earlier today." You sighed.
"I already know, one of my subordinates' son suffered the same thing. The boy was six, he is already capable of understanding what is happening around him and was also very close to his mother. They fought for the custody in the end the child went to the father, but his attitude changed over the years, he was a cheerful kid back then, now he left his father and is living a delinquent life in the age of 12."
"That's terrible!"
"I know. But it can't be helped, the father re-married and the lady didn't want the child from his previous wife..."
"..."
"But in our case, Tomoe's wife wanted Seien because he couldn't give him a child." Your eyes widened at the information that Akashi supplied.
"How did you know that?" You gasped.
"It was all in her medical records. But was kept hidden to the public since she's a well known person in the society."
"How come you know those details?"
"Background check." Akashi answered, "I told you that I will help."
"I can't believe this! Because his wife couldn't give him a heir they'll be going after my son!" You crumpled the paper in your hand in irritation.
Akashi watched you grit your teeth in annoyance and controlled anger. While he enjoy watching your expressions, he wasn't pleased that it was not because of him..but instead, because of Saruhiko.
"I'll have to contact my lawyer first thing in the morning." You said to particularly no one. "Thank you for handling me the letter, Akashi-san."
"Seijurou." He corrected again.
"Sorry- I cannot help it." You apologized with a sad smile.
"You can't call me Akashi-san anymore as you are now officially an Akashi yourself."
"I can keep my last name in the office, right?"
"That is possible, but sooner or later they will find out." Akashi said.
"I understand. It can't be helped, right?"
"Yes, and it will be a great help for you too when the time comes...with the custody."
"Thank you." You told him, "Thank you very much for all the assistance, Akashi-san."
"I'll do my best to help you with this, (name)." Akashi stared at you. 'Just don't disappear again like that last time.' He mentally added.
"Let's call it a night, you will have to leave early tomorrow correct?"
"Ah- yes." Akashi is correct. You have to check your project in Nagano. "I almost forgot. Thank you for reminding me."
You walked to the door and opened it but before you could take a step out of the room Akashi spoke...
"Don't you think that this situation would be more better if Seien is my son and not Tomoe's?" Akashi called after you.
You could only stare at Akashi.
"You cannot deny the fact that something happened between the two of us 'that' day." Akashi reminded you.
"W-what are you talking about Akashi-san?" Memories came back rushing to you and it cause the redness of your cheeks.
The memories of that morning when Akashi tried to wake you up for the submission of your term paper...and then it led to...having sex with him.
"That would be great don't you think?" A hand brushed the strands of hair from your face.
Akashi was already standing right in front of you. He was few inches away...you were suddenly become conscious of the distance of the two of you.
"Akashi-san, don't joke like that-"
"Who said something about joking?" He asked quietly. His fingers lingered at the back of ear.
"A-Aka-"
"Think about it..." Akashi leaned and whispered to your ear "If Seien is mine, Tomoe wouldn't get a chance nor rights to come after Seien. And we don't have to fight for his custody because we are married now...under the law." Akashi tapped the papers on his desk. The papers was the one Shishido sent him...legal papers that states that you are now legally Akashi's...wife.
Your face was red from his actions. You just can't handle things like this.
"Your reactions are like of those innocent ones." Akashi chuckled. "I love that flushed face of yours the most." Akashi commented when he tilted your chin to look up at him.
"It reminds me of that morning."
"Akashi-san," You smiled as if taking his words as teasing jokes, "Stop already." You pushing his hand gently off you.
Akashi was surprised that you were able to snap out of your blushing state.
"We both decided to forget what happened back then." you reminded him.
Akashi was once again surprised when you reminded him of the conversation you had with him during that day.
*flashback*
"Seijurou-senpai...did something happened last night?" It was you Who started the conversation when you stepped out of Akashi's bedroom.
Of course, you exactly remember what happened...
'Tomoe is not here, he will never be. Let me help you forget about him, (name).' You remembered Akashi whisper when he stopped kissing you.
'Then...help me.' You answered... you weren't exactly sure of what you were thinking that time...
But you'd give everything just to forget Saruhiko and his betrayal...even just for tonight.
'Come now...love.' Akashi instructed, your mind was clouded with pleasure and you could only hear Akashi's voice.
'With me... inside you'
'Sei--ahh' you climaxed and you felt Akashi did too after few hard thrust.
'So fucking beautiful...(name).'
You were exhausted that you couldn't formulate any words in your head.
'Sleep for a while...' You heard him say before your eyes closed completely and your mind drifted to sleep '...my (name).'
"Do you want to talk about that now?" was Akashi's reply.
"...No-- I'm sorry-- I was a little- I'm sorry! Please forget what happened between us!" You apologized.
He was good---like very good! You forgot about everything for a moment when you were doing it with him.
It must be what they call 'Mind Blowing Sex'...
'Saa...who knows?...' he's just the second person you have had sex with...
"If that is what you desire, my (name)." He walked to you and pushed a few strands of hair away from your face. "Then it shall be done."
*End Flashback*
"Let me correct that, (name)." Akashi said, "That is what you desired, so I granted that. But that doesn't mean that I have forgotten what happened back there." Akashi clarified.
"Your point?" You asked. This was clearly turning into an awkward conversation now.
Your face is starting to turn red...
"I'm just reminding you that what we shared back then is something I mark as special." Akashi pulled away from you.
"It will make me happy if you think the same." He was clearly sure that you are already a blushing mess and he didn't want to tease you up to the point that you won't want to see his face later, in the morning.
Akashi smiled to himself, he just wanted to give you something to think of about before going to sleep.
---AKASHI---
Indeed, when you left Akashi's office you were a blushing mess. You just didn't know what to answer to him, so you immediately run from his office.
You walked back to the guest room thinking of Akashi's words to you.
"Don't you think that this situation would be more better if Seien is my son and not Tomoe's?""That would be great don't you think?"
"Think about it...If Seien is mine, Tomoe wouldn't get a chance nor have rights to come after Seien."
"...And we don't have to fight for his custody because we are married now...under the law."
You reached the guestroom and slowly opened the door and sat on the the bed next to Seien's sleeping form.
"Maybe if its Akashi it will be alright..." you said to no one as you stared at your boy's sleeping face
"...But Seien is Saruhiko's."
---AKASHI---
The next day became a very tiring one.
While Akashi's maids took charge of taking care of Seien and taking him to school, the rest of the trip to Nagano became a little stressful especially when you recieved a call from Ichinose.
"What kind of tiles are these?" you commented disgustingly at the tile sets that was presented to you when you reached the location of your project.
"This is not what ordered. Give me the number to the warehouse. I'll talk to the manager."
"Return that to the warehouse. That is not what I ordered!" you ordered.
"(l/n)-san, please calm down. I'll take it from here." Ayumi interrupted and led you to the coffee area . "I made some tea, please drink."
Ayumi placed a cup of tea in front of you.
"I'll talk to the manager and tell them that they sent a wrong set." Ayumi smiled and assured you.
"Thank you." you answered quietly as you close your eyes.
You were in the middle of calming down when you felt your phone vibrated in your pocket.
"Miss (l/n), this is Ichinose." was the greeting of the person on the other line, this made you frown almost instantly.
"Ichinose-san. How can I help you today?" you answered in an irritating tone.
"I hope it's not a bad timing."
"A little, but I can talk. What do you want this time?" you wanted to talk to her politely, but you just cannot control your tongue.
"It's only for moment." She informed you, "I would like to schedule a meeting with you again in the weekends, if that is okay?"
"Why? What for?"
"Tomoe-san would like to discuss something with you regarding the issue with your son. It would be more peaceful if this will be discussed by the two of you."
"If I decline?"
"We will file for a petition. It will eventually end with the same result."
"I don't want to talk to Tomoe. But I will allow a DNA test if that is what you want. But I won't let the Tomoe's have my son, whatever the result will be."
"I understand. We will just contact you when the testing will commence." Without responding, you immediately cut off the line.
'There wont be any difference if I listen to her further blabbering.' you said to yourself.
---AKASHI---
"Akashi." Akashi wasn't surprised when he recieved a call from Midorima.
"Shintarou? What a surprise."
"Don't play dumb with me. I recieved a notice from the hospital earlier to pick up something." Midorima said.
"And?"
"Don't 'and?' me! You know what this is about!" Midorima accused, "What are you planning to do with this?"
Akashi chuckled.
"That is the key to my happiness, Shintarou."
"Happiness? You conducted this without the approval of the people involved."
"Yes, but it can't be helped. I am doing this in order to put people in their rightful place..."
"Akashi, those information are private-"
"I got those information legally." Akashi heard Midorima sighed and he immediately knew that the green haired doctor already gave up.
---AKASHI---
"That's a surprise." Kaoru was surprised to hear the news from Ichinose that you agreed for the DNA testing. "I was expecting her to put up a fight and embarrass herself."
"But that is good, its easier. Saruhiko will be glad to hear that...yes, thank you again Ichinose-san." With that Kaoru ended his conversation with Ichinose.
Kaoru smiled as she took a sip of her mango juice.
"You look pleased, did something happen?" Came the question startling Kaoru.
"Huh? Keiko! You're back from shopping?" Kaoru smiled at her friend Keiko.
"Yes. Osaka is really boring. I don't know why you like this place so much." Keiko commented as she sat down next to Kaoru.
"My father-in-law wanted this, and I also don't mind." Kaoru said.
"That's sooo boring! How about shopping? The boutiques?"
"I can always travel abroad for shopping."
"Still, that's boring! You need a life!"
"I have a life. A married life."
"Married life?" Keiko scoffed, "I'm surprised you don't have a child yet tho since you love this 'married life' thing."
"Child?" Kaoru laughed, ignoring Keiko's mockery "I have a son."
"No way!!! For real!?" Keiko gasped. She can't believe what she's hearing. "You didn't even inform me that you gave birth!"
"Well, it wasn't a big deal. Saruhiko wanted to keep our family life in private. I gave birth abroad and my parents are taking care of my son." Kaoru informed her.
"Eh!? With your parents?"
"Yes. Sometimes, you need time for yourself and all to relax." Kaoru smiled proudly.
"Wow...just wow. I just can't imagine you being a doting mother."
"Well, enough of that. Tell me what happened with meeting that fiance of yours."
"Oh!" Keiko's eyes twinkled. "Yes, I talked to his secretary earlier today. She told me that Seijurou will be attending a dinner party this coming weekend."
"And?"
"And...I'm planning on surprising him there!!!" Keiko excitedly tells Kaoru of her plan.
"Good for you."
"I know right?" Keiko excitedly sat down next to Kaoru and started checking her nails.
"We should get a manicure. I want to change the color of my nail." Keiko commented, making Kaoru check her friend's nail color. But the first thing she noticed was the diamond ring on her finger.
"Nice ring you got there." Kaoru smiled, "Reminds me of the engagement ring Saruhiko gave me."
"Oh this? Seijurou gave this to me." She smiled proudly at the memory, "He said I can pick anything that I want for my birthday last year."
"Akashi-san did?"
"Yes! Mom was very happy!"
---AKASHI---
You exactly knew why you are near the the point of flipping all the tables around you. It was because you need more sleep and the conversation with Ichinose.
When you reached the parking space across the office where you parked your car, you found a certain red haired man leaning casually on it.
"Akashi-san!" You gasped when you saw him there. "What are you doing here?"
"Seijurou." He corrected as he straightened himself with a smirk. "I came to pick you up. Sora-san was the one who picked up Seien at school."
"Yes. I called her earlier. We were busy in Nagano." You answered, "but you didn't have to come and pick me up, Akashi-san."
"That is true." Akashi agreed, "But as you can see, I don't have a car with me. I sent my driver to get Sora and Seien, so I decided to wait for you so we can go home together."
"You shouldn't have done that, Sora is capable of walking Seien home-"
"Home to your place, but not in our home." Akashi corrected.
"..." There was an awkward silence between the two of you because you weren't sure of what to say.
"I hope you don't mind if I drive us home?" Akashi broke the silence as he gently took the keys of your car from your hand.
"No, wait- I'll drive--"
"You're tired. I'll take us home." Akashi assured you before he opened the passenger's door for you. "Get in."
"O-okay." And Akashi slid into the driver's seat and fastened his seat belt before he started the car and drove off to the direction of his house.
"This weekend, you will come with us right?" Akashi asked.
"To the zoo?"
"Yes."
"...Yes." you nodded. Seien was excited and you don't want to disappoint him.
"I was planning on taking Seien to an amusement park, but he is too young to enjoy the rides. So I decided to go with the original plan." Akashi continued talking, "What do you think of Tama Zoological Park?"
"In Hino?"
"Yes. Its a one hour drive from the Imperial Hotel."
"Yes, that's a good one. They have a safari ride!" You beamed excitedly at Akashi and he smiled. "You can see the lions up close. Have you been there before?"
"Yes." Akashi smiled as he drive, "What happened, (name)? You weren't excited with the zoo trip last night, what changed your mind?" Akashi asked.
You frowned. Why does Akashi have to ask that question?
"I just want to enjoy the weekend with Seien." You answered, "And this is a perfect opportunity."
"Just that?"
"...yes."
You remembered that you had a conversation with Ichinose earlier. Akashi didn't have to know that you agreed to the DNA test that the Tomoe's wanted.
'I'll just have to prepare myself for the worst...' you said to yourself as you stared at the passing trees outside the window while Akashi drives. You were mentally occupied that you didn't notice that Akashi was observing you.
--- AKASHI---
"Akashi-sama," Akashi looked over his shoulder when he heard his name called.
"Saito."
"Everything is in order as you wished for the weekend." Akashi's secretary, Saito informed him.
"Good."
"Also, I heard from someone I know who is working in the Ichinose's that they are preparing for a sole custody case. Their boss was personally handling the said case."
"..." Akashi didn't reply, he already knew that.
"And (l/n)-san agreed to let the Tomoe have a paternity test and her son."
"When was this?" Akashi turned to Saito.
"Earlier today."
"..." There was a short pause and Akashi didn't really know how to react. He was surprised that you agreed to let the Tomoe's take the test.
"Is there anything else, Saito?"
"That is all, Akashi-sama."
"Saito, gather all the information about the Tomoe's regarding the custody case." Akashi ordered.
"Yes."
"Also, the clinic that will conduct the test."
"Yes."
"Make sure that whatever the result is... will be favorable for us."
"I understand Akashi-sama." with that Saito nodded and bowed before leaving Akashi's office.
Akashi waited for you to tell him yourself about the issue that you allowed the Tomoe for the paternity testing, but it was already Friday and yet you didn't drop any hint of the conversation you had with the Tomoe's lawyer. But it can't be
helped, you were too busy with work and he was too.
You were on your way to your car with Seien that Friday morning when Akashi called for you.
"(Name)," When you turned, you saw Akashi walking towards you. "Wait."
"Hm? Akashi-san, what is it?"
"Where are you going? I thought you only have a meeting later in the afternoon."
"I'm going to take Seien to the school." you gestured to Seien who was standing next to you and smiling at Akashi. "And drop by my place to get some files that I left there."
"Ah, I see. So you are free until lunch, correct?"
"Yes."
"Do you mind coming with me before your meeting starts?"
"Um...yes, sure." you nodded, "Where?"
"To visit my Mother." Your eyes widened you heard about it. You heard back during college that Akashi's mother died when he was still young and that he probably didn't feel the warmth of a mother's love as he grow up.
"Yes. I'll come with you." you assured him.
"Great. Thank you. Today is her birthday." Akashi said, "I'll have the driver take you to Seien's school and to your place."
"Eh- no, I can drive. I'll be back after an hour." you promised.
"Ok. I'll wait for you."
"Mm."
