Break The Curse of This Earth 34

Chapter 34
Fuuma sat in the call room but he didn’t use the fireplaces. Instead he pulled a chair over and tapped the mirror in his pocket with his wand thrice.
“What could you possibly want this time? You do realize that just because I’m out of school doesn’t mean I have time to mess around, I do work you know.”
“I hope I didn’t catch you too late; did you already buy the thing?”
“It’s back home locked in the safe box, why?”
“Damnit.”
“What now.”
“It’s a mistake; clearly he doesn’t give a damn about me.”
“Oh brother, what happened now?”
“We got into a fight, all over me going to play Quidditch.”
“And you’re going to let that ruin your relationship with him? Pathetic. If I were there, I’d slap you. Bloody hell, if I gave up every time something was thrown in mine and Subaru’s path I wouldn’t be married, would I?”
“How did you do it?”
“Do what? Get over the obstacles? It’s called I weighed my options. What meant more to me; the demons in my closet winning or me winning and being with Subaru?”
“You swallow your pride and admit defeat?”
“Yes because he’s worth it. So you want my advice? Weigh your options, and like I told him, if you two have problems talk to Kamui about it. Not Subaru, not Hokuto, and not me, because I couldn’t care less, HIM.”
Fuuma watched as the navy blue clad figure got up. “So there you go, weigh your options little brother and stop brooding about it.”
As the image of his brother faded Fuuma muttered as he pocketed his mirror. “Look who’s talking.”

Kamui had been working in the common room, but the first years buzzing about their exams was too much, so he retreated to the library. He found Subaru there; no surprise. Subaru was always trying to read about potions these days.
“Subaru?”
“Hmm?”
“What are you looking up?”
“Oh just seeing if there’s any potions in here for a way for a boy to carry a baby.”
“I suppose that’s for you and that per—Seishirou right?”
“That’s right.”
“And it will be you carrying said baby?”
“Most likely.”
“And you’re okay with this?”
“Why wouldn’t I be?”
“Because it’s life changing.”
The book closed and Kamui was looking at glasses-framed emerald eyes. “They’re enchanted to see invisible ink and such, no such luck. However,” The glasses were pocketed. “If this is going back to yours and Fuuma’s argument and you being afraid of change, just drop it now. I’ve decided this is what I wanted. I want a family and I want it with Seishirou. You can sit and pout and pitch a fit, but that’s what I’ve decided for myself. It’s time you did the same, I need to go meet with Hokuto, she’s insistent on making my collar for graduation look ‘less dull’.”
As Subaru left the library Kamui sat there puzzled. Subaru had just turned eighteen this year, how could he know what he wanted already? He knew he was going to work for the Ministry, he knew he wanted a family, and he knew who he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. He was older than Subaru by a few minutes and he didn’t know what he wanted in life. Even Fuuma did and Fuuma was someone who lived in the here and now.
“Kamui?”
Violet eyes looked up and stared at a certain seventh year Hufflepuff. “Yeah?”
“We need to talk.”
