The Crow's Soul and The Scarecrow's Heart (On Hiatus)

Chapter 12

I woke up the next morning seeing everything quiet. I sighed sitting at the dining room table and looked at my cell phone. I bit my lip and debated on the whole subject. I then stopped when my cell phone started to ring. I then sighed looking at the number on the screen. "Hi dad" I answered, as I heard smoke being blown out of his mouth. "Kin and Nobu got very upset with you yesterday" said my dad, as I looked at the table. "Yeah... I know" I said staying quiet. "Rei, I think you need to come and see me" he said, as I closed my eyes. I then jumped when a hand grabbed my right hand and a pair of lips kissed my left ear. I looked to my left seeing Itachi and my right seeing Kakashi. "Yeah... okay" I said "The Nokuzunu Restaurant, dress nicely and I'm inviting your mother" he said hanging up, as I gloomed and bang my head on the table. "Your doing the right thing Rei" said Kakashi "My mother is now also getting involved" I mumbled, as Kakashi and Itachi eyed each other. "We'll go with you" said Itachi, as I stopped and looked at them. "I haven't even told my brothers about this, how can I even explain it to my parents who are already trying to marry me off" I said, as Kakashi and Itachi both stopped and their eyes widened. "What?" asked Kakashi, as I stopped and covered my mouth. "What do you mean Rei?" asked Itachi narrowing his eyes, as I sighed. "The day that I first met you Kakashi, my mother has been trying to get me to go to arranged marriage meetings" I said, as they stopped and then bent down to look at me. "Rei" said Kakashi, as I lowered my head. "I wasn't trying to keep it from you, but this whole thing has now escalated and I'm not sure what to do" I said, as Kakashi kissed my forehead and Itachi wrapped his arms around me. "We'll go with you" said Kakashi, as I smiled and nodded a bit. "J-just one thing" I said, as they eyed me. "It's at the Nokuzunu restaurant" I said, as their eyes widened. "The really fancy one where you have to wear kimonos in the winter and yukatas in the summer" said Itachi, as I nodded my head. They sighed but nodded. "Alright you get ready and we'll pick you up"  said Kakashi, as I nodded my head. I walked home and put on a kimono. I then paused and looked at my manga pages that were spread out on a table. I then smiled sadly. That's right I had to come up with something different. I then got ready putting up my hair and grabbed my purse. I soon walked out of my building and paused seeing Kakashi and Itachi dressed up as well.

They got out of the car and smiled towards me. "Ready to go?" asked Kakashi, as I took a deep breath and nodded. We then stopped hearing honking. We turned our heads and my eyes widened seeing a limo. The driver got out and smiled towards us while bowing. "Miss Ito, your father is expecting you" said the driver, as Kakashi and Itachi looked shocked. "Ito?" questioned Kakashi, as I sighed. "Atsuna is my pen name as well as my grandmother on my mother's side maiden name" I said, as they nodded. "I'm going with them" I said to the driver, as he sighed. "Your mother has specifically stated for you to come by limo" said the driver, as I growled. I then paused, as Itachi grabbed my right hand and Kakashi grabbed my left. My eyes widened in shock as they escorted me to the limo. "You have no problem with us escorting her do you?" asked Kakashi while pressing the alarm button on his car, as the limo driver smiled. "Not at all" said the driver, as we all got in the limo. Once it started to drive I looked at Itachi on my right and Kakashi on my left. "Thanks" I whispered, as they smiled looking at me. "We're here for you" said Itachi, as I nodded. Soon the limo came to a stop when we reached the restaurant. The driver opened the door for us and Kakashi stepped out and took my left hand and then once I was out of the limo Itachi stepped out and took my right.
