RL-dealing with the kids

Closing the door, Hakuba leaned against the wall and waited for a moment. He could hear Kaito-kun and Akako-chan running around the house playing another game. At least Aoko wasn’t with Watson, he nearly died when he saw the poor pet with a pink bow on her neck.

Since no one was there to see, he allowed a worried expression to creep onto his face. He had hoped that Akako wasn’t very angry at him for leaving her alone with the kids while he went to find Maxwell. Hakuba brought her flowers, but he doubted that if it was going to do any good. Hakuba looked at the flowers on his left hand, he didn’t know his favorite flowers, so he bought her azaleas. Next, he looked at the black cat on his right hand.

“Welcome home.”

(OOC: In the language of flowers, Azaleas mean love, romance, first love, fragile passion, temperance, and it is also the Chinese symbol of womanhood :3)

Akako was not happy.

At all.

As soon as she heard Hakuba come home, she immediately went to the foyer to head him off. When she arrived, she affixed the blond detective with an icy glare, ignoring the flowers and cat in his hands for now. "You," she said, her voice conveying exactly how perturbed she was at the moment. She pointed a slender finger at Hakuba and balled her other hand into a fist. "Do not leave me along with these children again."

... were those flames dancing around her fist?

((Aw! That's so sweet! I'm so sorry for her slight bitchiness, she really hates taking care of children... D8))

Hakuba looked at Akako's angry face and notice the flames in her hand. His eyebrows raised up, and he felt Maxwell's claws on his arm.

"I'm sorry, I have no excuse."" He said apologetically. "I never know that you were pyrokinetic too, you're really powerful Akako."

(OOC: It’s ok, Hakuba kind of expected it. And yes, he tries to be sweet to her.)

"I'm a witch, Hakuba Saguru. Don't underestimate what I can do." She crossed her arms over her chest and tapped her foot on the ground. "I suppose that is Mr. Smart?" she asked, motioning towards the black cat.

"I never, madam." Hakuba nodded, a calm expression on his face. "Yes he is, but you already know that."

The blonde detective show her the flowers.

"Uhm...that's for you. You can burn them if you want." he blushed furiously, and hoped that he didn't sound as pathetic as he thought.

Akako eyed the flowers in Hakuba's hand. How did he know she was seriously considering burning them to relieve a bit of stress?

Of course... she couldn't actually bring herself to burn them. It was a nice gesture, and destroying his gift to her would have been quite rude.

She took the flowers from Hakuba tentatively. "... thank you," she said, "They are quite lovely."

You're lovely too, he wanted to say, but he know that he couldn't. "You're welcome, Akako."

He looked around, the foyer was a mess, and he caught a sigh of the living room, the whole room looked like a war was going on. It wasn't a surprise that Akako was so angry.

"If you want to take a bath or something to relax, I will put in order the house and I will look after the kids." too bad that his his home-help had the day off. "But they're playing with max now, I think they're distracted enough."

Akako followed Hakuba's gaze towards the mess in the living room and sighed. "I don't understand how Kuroba-kun's parents dealt with him as a child," she commented, "Do you know how much energy he has, Saguru? Particularly when he's paired with Nakamori-san..."

oh, I know, when he's being KID he acts like that too, Hakuba thought.

"I bet that he was easy to deal as a real six years old. Now he's tall enough to open the doors. I locked the library for security."

Hakuba made a face. "Aoko-chan drew a bird on one my bedroom walls. A really big one. She thought that I would like it."

Akako giggled, and she could already feel herself beginning to relax more now that Hakuba was home and here to help her. "I'm sure I could conjure up a quick spell to clean it off, Saguru." She said.

Speaking of spells...

Akako muttered a few unintelligible words under her breath and waved her hand. In an instant, the mess in the living room began to clean itself. She turned to Saguru and smiled slyly.

"That will help a lot." He responded, noticing that she was less angry. He found himself releasing a small breath he hadn't known he was holding.

He blinked in surprise when Akako used her magic, he couldn't see that everyday.

"Wow." Hakuba said, gesturing to the room."That was amazing."

(OCC: I'm going to sleep, see you tomorrow)

"You mortals always seem fascinated by the simplest things," Akako replied. She paused for a minute to listen for Kaito and Aoko, who seemed to be enjoying themselves safely in the kitchen, before heaving a sigh, entering the now clean living room, and taking a seat on the nearest chair. She sighed and rubbed her temples. "I cannot wait for this to be over," she grumbled to herself.

"Beauty always fascinate people." Hakuba responded, following her. He stopped after her and looked at her antics. "You shouldn't worry, it's not going to be for long."

Hakuba paused for a minute, doubt clear in his eyes, before gracefully moving his hands over Akako's shoulders and start to give her a massage.

"I can stop..or you can turn me into a frog if you want."

(occ: ooh badtouch! XD)

Akako stiffened when Hakuba's hands found her shoulders. Despite being worshiped by nearly every man alive, she wasn't used to such intimacy. She relaxed after a moment, however, and a knowing smile creeped onto her lips. "I'll turn you into a frog later," she replied.

((Pfft, he's getting bold now isn't he?))

"I can deal with that." He smiled, even if she couldn't see him, and keep working on her shoulder.

((XD))

Akako could hear the smile in Hakuba's voice, but she didn't say anything. She was entirely too exhausted at the moment.

She was never having kids. Ever. Not if taking care of them was this tiring.

So with Hakuba slowly massaging away her stress, Akako leaned back in the chair and closed her eyes, before drifting into a light slumber.

Maxwell felt odd being carried by another person and for that matter having paws and walking on all fours. None the less he kept his chin up high and hoped that Akako would change him back.

Meow? Came a slight sound from when the screaming was heard. That's right, he couldn't 'talk'.

Hakuba left the kitten on the floor and scratched his ears.

"I'm sorry, I have to talk to Akako now, I will try to convince her to change you back maxwell, but she's not very happy now."

Hakuba pointed to a brow wood door. "The kitchen is that direction if you're hungry,the living room in the other way around, the bedrooms are on the second floor and the library is on the third one. You can look around if you want."

Just then, Kaito came screeching around the corner giggling his head off as Aoko chased after him. He skidded to a stop when he caught sight of Hakuba and Maxwell the cat. "Ah! A kitty!" he said, "Aoko-chan likes cats!" He turned to Aoko and grinned. "Can we play with the cat, Hakuba-niichan?"

"Meow." This was pretty good Maxwell thought as Hakuba scratched behind his ears. However, just because he was changed into a cat did't mean he wasn't still and foremost a secert agent. Maxwell, rubbed himself against Akako legs as if he understood. In fact, he could sense her anger. Looking up at Hakuba, Maxwell 'meowed' again.

However, the sudden screeched had caught him off guard and he jumped into the air and highly pitchly meowed and hide between Hakuba before emerging to peek at a child.

Maxwell meowed happily, why not after all?

"You should ask the Kitten if he wants to play with you two." Hakuan informed. "His name is Maxwell."

"I think he does" Aoko cried happily and took the kitten carefully.She scratched the white kitten under it’s chin. "Kaite let's go to the kitchen, I'm sure he's hungry."

Kaito nodded at Aoko. "Okay! I bet we can find some cat food in there or something!" He lowered his voice to a whisper so Akako and Hakuba couldn't hear, "And then we'll take him outside and see if I can make him disappear, like my dad does in all of his magic tricks!"

"Hakuba-niichan's hat is in his room." Aoko murmured back. "We can use it for the trick." Aoko Turned to Hakuba, hugged him, and then took kaito's arm and draggged him away to the kitchen.

Maxwell started purring with all the attention he was getting.

His ears twitched, Cat food? Do I look like a?... Well, yes I do but cat food?!

The black eyed them back suspiciously much he could. Listen kids just because I'm a cat doesn't mean I can understand you prefectly... I mean

"Meow" Looking confused. He wasn't though going to have himself disappear least not like this.

In the kitchen, Kaito began to open each cabinet as he searched for the cat food (assuming, of course, that Hakuba actually had cat food lying around somewhere).

"Do you think cats eat things other than cat food?" he asked in puzzlement, "I can't find any!"

Giving up his search, he walked over to Maxwell and patted the cat's head. "Do you wanna be a part of a magic show?"

"I bet that kitten like milk too." Aoko said, opening the fridge. She saw the milk but she couldn't reach it. Aoko frowned and close the door of the fridge.

"I'm going to find Saguru niichan's hat for the trick." She said as she ran away.

Maxwell eyed Kaito as he was patted. Well, magic got him like this maybe assuming the boy really had magic abilities as well
maybe could get him out of this mess.

Meowing, quietly, Maxwell waited for the girl to come back with the hat.

Aoko managed to find the hat and got back to the kitchen in a few minutes. She left the hat on the floor and took the kitten carefully.

"What we do now, Kaito?"

Kaito picked up Maxwell and placed him in the hat. Truthfully, he had never done this trick before, so... he really wasn't sure how to make the cat disappear.

"Er... now we need a sheet!" he glanced at Aoko. "Aoko-chan, can you get a sheet?"

Aoko looked at him and then at the cat. She looked at Kaito again and blinked.

"Why a sheet?Is he going to sleep?"

"My dad uses a sheet when he makes things disappear!" Kaito answered her, like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"But we don't have a sheet here." She looked around and saw Akako's jacked on one of the kitchen's chairs. "We ca use that!"

Aoko took the jacket and show it to Kaito. "What now?"
