Pairing: KaoruxDie

Summary: Playing family together never was anything Kaoru would’ve dreamed of, not before he experienced it firsthand and noticed how happy it actually could make a person.

[livejournal.com profile] fonulyn: Well, this could be kind of random and I know many of you don’t like to imagine them years from now, when they’re already a bit older and not necessarily as active rock-gods as we’ve gotten used to see them x) But when I was visiting my grandmother before Christmas, this somehow struck me and I just had to write it down as mushy and sugary as it might be. I do like it, and I hope that at least some of you would too^^
And yes I still suck with titles so just ignore the crappy-ness 8D

With You



Die taking care of children was something Kaoru hadn’t believed he’d ever get to see, much less enjoy this much. Still ten years ago, when the band had been more successful than ever before, if someone had described him this day he would’ve laughed straight at their faces. They, two world famous rockstars, playing family just like any couple? How ridiculous!

Kaoru had never thought he would get a family of his own. He wasn’t really a family person, never had been, his relationship with his parents and siblings more polite than heartfelt. So he had been firmly convinced that he would end up without a family just because of his own bad experiences. Or not bad, but not really very inspiring either.

When he had fallen in love with another man, one other than his friend, bandmate and fellow guitarist, he had been even more convinced of his child-less future. They were two rock-gods, passionate and restless, living the nights and using all their energy on playing, touring, partying and in general being all over each other. During the years things had calmed down, they didn’t party as hard and often as before, but still knew how to enjoy life to the fullest together. Kaoru could imagine them together forever, growing into an old couple of has-beens that had amazing times to look back at.

Then one normal Tuesday evening had changed everything. Kaoru was home alone, his slightly younger lover out with their bassist to see a movie he couldn’t have cared less of, so he had stayed behind. He had just closed his laptop, intending on making himself a cup of strong coffee to reward himself for the day’s hard work, when the doorbell rang.

It was a woman and a child. He distantly remembered the woman, and the fact that he had been screwing her years back, just before the time he had gotten together with the younger guitarist. But the child, a little girl who could barely walk on her own, he didn’t remember ever having seen before. Her visit wasn’t long, but left an even bigger impact. She had pushed the little girl towards him, told him it was his girl and his turn to take care of her. And then the woman disappeared, leaving the child behind.

At first Kaoru had thought he’d go after her and make her explain things more. But he didn’t even know the woman’s name, much less her phone number or where she came from or anything, so he didn’t have any chances to contact her. When he asked the little girl he only received a firm “She is mommy!” as an answer. Needless to say, that didn’t help him much in figuring out what the hell the woman’s name could’ve been.

Momentarily Kaoru had thought of calling the police, telling he can’t take care of the girl. But somehow he just couldn’t bring himself to do it. But who could even prove that he indeed was the girl’s father? That question got an answer as soon as Die got home though. “I was wondering when your bastards would start to pop up,” were his almost exact words. Kaoru pouted and protested, telling that he didn’t even have any proof the girl was his. And again Die surprised him by just grinning and shrugging. “Are you kidding? Just look at that adorable thing! The girl has about as much of you as possible; exactly your nose, the same determined jaw…”

The final proof Kaoru needed was given him soon though. From the first second when the girl set her eyes on Die, she was completely in love with him. How could she not be his girl then, thought Kaoru, since she had such a good taste in men too. The girl wasn’t only completely charmed by the younger guitarist though since Die was instantly pretty fond of her as well. Maybe he saw something of his lover in her, a part of his childhood. Or then he just couldn’t resist the adorable determination the little girl had, which was so obviously like Kaoru’s.

Somehow they ended up keeping the girl. Then one thing led to another, from bureaucracy to long, endless discussions, from difficulties to little victories. The girl was followed by another small one, their family growing. And now, this was something typical for them. Kaoru was sitting beside the kitchen table, sipping his black coffee while watching Die and the children.

The four-year-old was on Die’s arms, her legs around his waist and her arms on his shoulders, while he was explaining the six-year-old how to store away the remains of her breakfast. He still made the girls wash their hands before letting the younger one down to the floor. The girls instantly darted off, waving their little arms when disappearing from the room. That made Die chuckle and he took himself a cup of coffee – with sugar and a lot of cream, he had never really learned to like the strong taste much – before sitting down beside the table as well.

Kaoru loved these lazy Sunday mornings. He never got enough of just watching the people who were the most important to him in the world. Even now he didn’t say anything, just allowed his gaze rest upon his lover’s features. Die looked tired, had dark circles under his eyes, but there was this certain peaceful, relaxed aura surrounding him that showed he was happy. He was beautiful like this, Kaoru thought, just being himself and not self-conscious at all, the dark mahogany hair surrounding his pale face and making his dark eyes sparkle.

Wordlessly Kaoru leaned closer, initiating a deep, loving kiss. The way it was instantly responded to made his heart skip, showing him once again that despite the changes life had brought the fire hadn’t died and they were still as much devoted to each other as ever. If not even more.

Suddenly the peaceful moment was broken by a high-pitched shriek that cut through the air, Kaoru pulling off a grimace as they parted. “I’ll go.” He promised with a soft smile, earning a grateful glance from his lover.

“I swear,” Die begun with a theatrical sigh and a roll of his eyes. “This third one is the last kid we’ll have, I can’t deal with any more!” He was practically emitting happiness though, he same emotions mirrored in the older man’s eyes.

“That’s exactly what you said after the second one too.” Kaoru pointed out with a grin.

He only received a hasty wave and a chuckle. “Just go, go! Before the neighbours think that we’re torturing the baby.”

Kaoru headed into the living-room, almost tripping over the two girls in the doorway as they were running back to the kitchen, obviously enthusiastic about something. He went to the cradle, smiling as the crying ended instantly, like cut with a knife. And when he lifted up the smelly little brat, who had Die’s deep eyes and pouty lips, who had even inherited his father’s obvious happy and bouncy nature, he thought that life was good.

Yes, life definitely was good.

Woha..that's too much sugar for me! So cuteeee Q//Q
I love it and I was really sad, that's so short.

(Eh..uhm..where are all the kids from?! XD)

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Too much? XD Well sometimes I need my dosage of sugar and maybe it turns out to be too syrupy then XD Glad that you liked it though! Thank you <3

haha, I don't know XD There are several possibilities but I wanted to just leave it up to the readers' imagination x)

[identity profile] cadkitten.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I only want to know where the second one came from! lol Was it Die's? Tell me it was Die's. XD --- Ahhh! The third was Die's! *laughing* They should have made sure the girls used birth control! Shame on them! But then... they have children they love now, so it's all good, I suppose XD

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it's all good now although it began from *coughs* slight accident 8D haha, and honestly, I don't know whose the second one is XD Maybe it's just plain adopted randomly from somewhere and not even theirs? Or maybe it's Kaoru's. I would say it's Kao's XD But you can decide for yourself!
Thanks for reading ;)

Suloista olet taas kirjoitellut! Ehkäpä elämä onkin ihan okei.
Ja kun kauhea vauvakuume päällä (jea, sellaista sattuu teininäkin), neulon vauvan sukkia ja takkeja ja ompelen vaatteita ja kaikki on raskaana ja ne on niin kauniita. *o*
Joo, mutta kyllä se vaan niin on, että hienoja tarinoita kirjotat, joka kerta. Ja on mukava lukea hyvää englantia.
Mutta kommentti oli pakko suomeksi, kun en tiennyt mikä on vauvakuume englanniksi ;D

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Kiitoksia! haha, kuulostaa suloiselta XD Minä just naureskelin äitille kun se neuloo sukkia sun muita ja mummoutuu ihan onessansa XD Mutta vauvanvaatteet on niin suloisia!
Kiitos^^ Mukava kuulla että tykkäsit ja todella mukava että vaivauduit jättämään kommentinkin! :D

[identity profile] nightelf-moriel.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Aaww that was totally cute xD I never imagined them having kids before (except Mika of course, but she was different ;) but now I can really see it...Die doing their lunch boxes, Kaoru being desperate over their maths homework, Uncle Toshiya visiting for dinner...it's just too much aaawww'ness XD

I found it quite funny how suddenly the unknown groupie kids came along, guess that's what happens to most rockstars after a while ;D
Liked it a lot, thanks for sharing!

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
That's an image I love so much for some silly reason XD And now that you painted it like that, it sounds just even better XD Maybe it's the fact that guys with kids is an adorable sight to begin with, or then I just love imagining them as one happy family x)

Thank you for reading, and especially for commenting! I'm so happy you liked it^^ <3

[identity profile] draculas-bride.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
“I was wondering when your bastards would start to pop up.”
XDDD I love Die. Though, like he's one to talk considering how apparently he's having a couple pop up too...
But yeah, this was so cute!
I have a total weakness for fics with rockstars and kids, so I loved this :)

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I thought that the line kind of fit him XD haha, but well, he can always generously ignore the fact that Kaoru's not the only one with kids popping up XD

Thank you! I kind of have a thing for rockstars and kids too XD So I'm really glad you liked!

[identity profile] dklc23.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
*8 weeks later 20 lil kao's running around and climbing over die*
Die:....did you EVER use a condom?
Kao:...>> um..I um...I'm pretty sure I did
XD I love fics like these. I think ones about life after the band are pretty amuseing :3 it was sweet to read this. I always saw Die wanting lots of kids. x3

and wow its been a while since I read something from you :o

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
haha, that now made me crack up XD And thank you! I'm glad to hear you liked it, and that I'm not the only one who loves the thought of them with kids XD

It's been a while since I even wrote anything *sigh* Busy, busy life D:

Thanks for reading and commenting!<3

[identity profile] seinen-no.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Hun, I told you how much I really really loved this right? Gosh, even now it makes me smile so widely, because I like the imagination of them having this normal life at one point and well, I can imagine Die being a cool father while Kao's the 'strict' one x)
That was just so lovely and always opens my heart *hugs* Thank you.

Ps, I promise to correct the other one, the DiexTosh one so that you can post it tomorrow if you wanna^^

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-11 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you hunney^^ I knew I could trust you to like this one XD I just totally love the image of them leading a normal life like this kinda, and being these amazing parents together XD
*hugs back tight* You don't need to thank me^^ I'm just so happy you liked it!

That would be really nice :D I proofread through it myself again and found some mistakes already, so I could send you the corrected version tomorrow morning so you can see through that one if you wanna XD But don't stress over it! Love ya <3

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-12 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
You wouldn't? Well maybe he's more trustworthy than you give him credit for XD But thanks for reading!

I had a sugar attack. This was the most sugary, syrupy thing I've ever read. I loved it. :DDDD

“I was wondering when your bastards would start to pop up,” I was laughing my ass off at that one.

And then Die's 'bastards' appear. :P

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-12 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
Aw I'm glad to hear that :D haha, I have the tendency to go for extra-sugary things at times when I feel like it, I just can't stop myself XD

They're just both the same x) Thanks for reading!

[identity profile] xxdahlia.livejournal.com 2009-02-12 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
This is ADOOORABLE :333 I'm melting all over the place.

"This is the last one, I swear!"
*doorbell rings*
"....Do I really want to get that.."

...Maybe I could kidnap a baby Die from his doorstep.

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-12 04:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw but that's just amazing! 8D

haha, that now made me crack up totally XD *tired* Aw and I want a baby Die too!

Thanks for reading dear ;)

[identity profile] sakura-ame.livejournal.com 2009-02-15 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
Awwwwwww! <3 Too cute!

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-15 11:15 am (UTC)(link)
Thankies! :D

[identity profile] wildxisxturning.livejournal.com 2009-02-18 07:53 am (UTC)(link)
Lmao. That was adorably sweet. I've worked out how I want the babies to go.

Obviously the first was Kao's bastard. Die made that quite clear [best line of the fic btw]

Second was an adoption and third was surrogate via Die and some chick. XD

That's how I've decided the last two came about.

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-18 01:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Actually, that sounds pretty much like I planned it too in my head when I wrote this XD I wasn't sure about the second one, but I thought too that it was adoption in the end x) So congratulations for being able to read my mind! XD Aw and thank you for reading too, I'm glad you liked it ;)

*added to memories*

Loved the feeling and warmness to this. I myself wanted to write something concerning kids and one of the boys and this actually made me really considering it :).

It's always lovely when one of you write a K/D. You can always see how much you guys care for them and that's why the pairing seems more lovable. All these images in your fic were really domestic and I loved that.

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-19 02:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, you definitely should write something like that, at least if one asks me ;) I love the thought of them being all domestic and playing family together, maybe that's why I have a soft spot for stories like this, both writing and reading XD

Thank you so much :) Your comment really made me smile, and I'm glad to hear that you liked it! And wow, it's a real compliment what you said, that a part of the love that's poured into the fic actually transfers to the reader as well!

[identity profile] scottskydweller.livejournal.com 2009-02-24 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
oh goodness! this is fabulous!
haha... so many unwanted kids...
maybe one day when both of them retire,
they can open a childcare centre!

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2009-03-10 09:49 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you :D haha, although I don't know if all of the kids were exactly unwanted, they could've gotten rid of 'em somehow if they were x) But I'm glad you liked, and thanks for reading ;D
