Emerald Eyes (A KWMS Fanfiction)

Chapter Three

Have you guys ever seen, read or heard of Another the anime? What did you guys think of it? Because I was going to write a fanfiction for it based in modern day time? Do you guys think that sounds like a good idea or not? And what other kind of fanfictions should I do, like for what other anime's? Do you even think I'm a good author? What do you think of my story? ~ I'm not very proud of my own work. And also this will not be THAT good of a chapter, and I might rewrite it later on. I'm not too sure. I'm not too sure I'm "happy" with it. ~

I drop my phone in utter shock. Where could Kai be? I look towards Usui. He looks at me in shock, too. “I-I have to go.” His eyes look at my face, and I know he’s analyzing me. “I’m sorry.” I get up off the ground, and turn off the lights around the apartment.

Usui follows me out the door. He can’t help me look for Kai. But I don’t want to leave him; I might never see him again. I hide my face; I don’t want him seeing me weak, because I feel like I’m about to cry. Usui and I separate, he walks towards the train and I went to look for Kai. I went to the store we usually go to get sweets. But I didn’t see any sign of him. He didn’t get taken, did he?

I go up towards the cashier; I should ask him because he might know something. I go up to him after he’s done checking out the only one-other person in the store. He was wearing a hat, so I couldn’t see his hair color. But his eyes were a dark chocolaty brown color. “Have you seen this boy?” I pull out a picture of Kai from my wallet.

“No, sorry.” He looks at me apologetically.

“Thanks anyway.” I quickly leave, where else could he be?

As the night goes on, I check the park, his school, the walk to and from my mom’s and his school. Kai is nowhere to be found. And it’s nearly dawn. My mom, sister and dad have gone home. So it was just me looking for Kai, and fatigue was starting to get to me. I was feeling so drowsy, like I might faint. Maybe he returned back home and is waiting outside for me? I rub my eyes and walk back home. I feel dizzy; I know I’m probably walking like I’m drunk or hung-over. I eventually reach home and Kai isn’t there. My heart feels like it sinks into the lowest pit in my stomach. Is Kai okay? I make my way to the front step and the world goes black.

“Is mommy okay?” I hear Kai’s voice breaking through the darkness.

My head is pounding, and it feels like it’ll never cease. “Ow.” I winced, rubbing the sore spot behind my head. I must’ve hit my head. I wonder what happened. I open my eyes and looked around. Kai was sitting down drawing or something at the table. Who is he talking to though?

“She’ll be fine; she just needs rest right now.” I watch Usui come out of the kitchen, he has a glass of water in his hands.

I close my eyes again. Kai’s in good care, Usui will take care of him. He will protect him. And I can tell that Kai likes him, because if not he wouldn’t be talking to him at all. I can’t read Usui’s expressions or mind though, so I have no idea what he’s thinking about Kai. But he can’t hate Kai, can he? I mean he is his own son… Not that he knows that.

When I wake next, it’s night time and the sun is tucked under the horizon for sleep. Kai and Usui are talking, Usui is helping him learn how to read. I smile at them, but my head still hurts. I’ve been selfish. When I woke up earlier, I should’ve told Usui to go back to his parent’s. I get up and go over to them, they both notice me.

“Mommy!” Kai jumps up and hugs me. I kiss his head and smile. I’m so glad he’s okay.

“Kai, go to your room and play, okay?” I hold onto him.

“Okay.” He wiggles out of my arms and runs back to his room.

Usui looks at me, his green eyes pierce right through me. What is that damn pervert thinking? He’s probably going to tease me. Well, if he’s only like how he was when we were younger. We sit in silence, for what seems like hours. But it’s only been a few minutes. Does he think Kai is his?

“Thank you.” I stare at the ground. I’m really nervous. I can’t read his mind, so I have no idea what he’ll say.

“You’re welcome.” His voice sounds nonchalant. “Are you feeling okay?”

“I’m fine… How did you find Kai?” I look up to see Usui staring at me. His green eyes make me feel uncomfortable; I can feel my face heat up.

“I saw him waiting outside your place last night. I was bringing over a gift for you.” He leaned back in his chair.

“So he came home?” I ask, with a smile on my face. “Good. I was worried about him.”

Usui doesn’t tell me anything. He doesn’t speak. Is he not going to ask about Kai? Does he not realize how much they look alike? Or is he pretending not to notice? Or ignoring it? Usui sighs and gets up, he makes his way into the kitchen. He opens my fridge; I notice how empty it is from this far away.

“I’m sorry; we don’t have much to eat.” I tell him.

He’s still quiet, even rummaging through my fridge. He doesn’t even look at me. Is Usui mad? Maybe he does realize Kai is his and he’s mad that I’ve kept his son from him. I mean, it’s not like it’s my fault… He didn’t answer my calls to him.

“Isn’t your wife worried about you?” I manage to blurt out.

“I called her.” He’s so blunt about everything.

“Okay.” I drop my eyes to the table in front of me. The way he’s talking is going to drive me insane. Why can’t he give me a better explanation? I want to know about his wife. I want to know what he’s thinking about Kai. I bet if he wasn’t such a perverted alien, I’d know what he was thinking.

After sitting in silence, he’s in the kitchen cooking and Kai is still playing. I should probably punish Kai. But I don’t want to do that when Usui is around. Plus, I’m too tired right now… My entire body is sore.

I sigh. “Usui…” I mumble. “You should go back to your wife.” I can’t handle this silence anymore; I just want him gone now. Because if he’s gone I won’t drive myself crazy with what he’s thinking.

“Then who would take care of you and Kai?” His eyes come to rest on me; they’re the same eyes as Kai’s. They aren’t cold, or inviting, just lonely-looking.

“I can take care of Kai and myself.” I protest and look away.

“Oh really? Is that why Kai ran away last night and you fainted?” His voice was laced in a condescending tone.  It was really like he was trying to look down on me.

“I can take care of Kai by myself, and I have since he was born. I mean, it’s not like his father--“ I look up and gasp because Usui’s face is so close to mine.

“And why is his father no around, Misa-chan?”

I couldn’t answer that, or do anything but feel my face turn red. Why does Usui do this to me? “I-Idiot.” I push him away from me. He smirks like he’s proud of something.
