[CLAMP AU] Babysitting the devil
Title: Babysitting the devil
Fandom: XXXHOLiC/CCS
Genre: AU crack (from the Reeds saga)
Characters: Himawari Kunogi, Kimihiro Reed, assorted kitties, and one cousin
Summary: Kimihiro might be good with children and animals, but his cousin always gets the worse of him.
Notes: Yeah, I don't know why I keep writing in this universe; I guess for myself? Yay, introducing more background and members into the Reed family. Also, if you don't know who the girl's father is... you don't really read this journal at all.
"What's with the long face, Reed-kun?" Himawari asked with a smile as she sat at her classmate's dining table. It was Sunday, and she had gone to the Reeds' in order to do a joint assignment for Biology they had to hand over next week.
Kimihiro, who looked exhausted, sighed.
"It's nothing, Himawari-chan. I'm not sure we can finish this today, though."
"How come? Do you feel sick?"
"I wish I would. I'm--"
"Kimi-kuuuuuuuuuun!"
A pink hurricane threw itself to Kimihiro's lap, and climbed to his neck.
"--babysitting," he concluded, without air to breathe.
Two hazel eyes turned to Himawari. A little girl was what the thing suffocating the young Reed. She had long brown hair; some strands were in small braids, decorated with plastic butterflies matching her dress.
"How cute!" Himawari beamed at the girl, who was examining her. "What's your name, sweetie?"
"The devil," Kimihiro whispered.
The girl ignored him, flattered by Himawari's attention. She let go his neck and went towards Himawari.
"Nakuru Reed! What's your name?"
"Himawari."
"Like the yellow flowers? We have some in our garden! They're so pretty! I also like our gekkabijin and the sakura tree!"
"How adorable! I thought you had no siblings, Reed-kun."
"And I don't. She's my cousin. My uncle and aunt had to do some errands but their babysitter moved out. So they dropped her and their cat here. And since mom opened the store today and dad is taking a nap, I have to watch over the monster."
"Reed-kun, don't call Nakuru-chan a monster."
"I'm too pretty to be a monster. I want to be a fairy."
"Awwww! How old are you?"
"Five!"
Kimihiro's head met the table, frustrated because his Perfect Romantic Afternoon With Himawari-chan was ruined by his aunt, who had forgotten to get a new nanny until they needed one.
"By the way, don't Clow-sensei's novels have a character called Nakuru?"
"Yeah," Kimihiro said, "the fake name of the moon guardian Ruby Moon. Dad ran out of muse when he made the English group up, so he took names and character traits from our family members. My uncle was so amused by that he even bought himself a black kitty, and-- Dammit, I forgot to check on the cats!"
Kimihiro made a run for the kitchen. Nakuru followed him, fast. Himawari giggled and went behind them. When she entered, her friend was carrying the fat orange cat, annoyed.
"Kero, I told you several times you're not supposed to eat from Spinel's plate, okay? It's a wonder he hasn't hurt you yet."
Himawari saw Nakuru picking up a smaller black cat with a bored expression. It was the kind of cat you knew they thought of themselves as smarter than humans, and you kept wondering if they could understand your words.
"Look, Hima-chan! This is Suppi-chan, our kitty!"
Spinel stared at Himawari with his big green eyes, curious. He didn't seem to care that much about the fact Cerberus had eaten most of his food. At least the lazy Yue -who was, not surprisingly, sleeping in his master's study room at that moment- fought Kero back. However, he didn't seem to like the way the girl was carrying him, so he threw himself far from Nakuru's arms.
"So he's called after the character Spinel Sun," Himawari grinned. "Your dad then seems cool with Clow-sensei's books, then."
"He reads them to me at bedtime! I can read them a little now, though!"
"How nice! Do your best, Nakuru-chan!"
"Yessss! Hima-chan, Kimi-kun, I want to watch the Soel and Larg movie!"
"Again?! You're going to break the DVD at this pace," Kimihiro complained.
"Pleeeeeeeease!"
The cousins exchanged looks. Seconds later, Kimihiro bit his lip.
"Alright, but don't wake dad up."
"Yay! Hima-chan, come and watch it with us!"
"Hey, hey! Wait a second, monster! You're watching it alone, because we have to do a school assi--"
"Oh, come on, Reed-kun. You did say we weren't going to be able to make it today."
"Yeah, but..."
"I want to watch it. It could be fun," Himawari grinned.
Resigned by the double power of cuteness, Kimihiro made some popcorn and got prepared to see the stupid movie for the fifteenth time. Yeah, the afternoon with Himawari was officially ruined. Thanks, aunt Kaho!

"Reed-kun, you're so good with animals and children! You'd be the perfect older brother."
"I hope not," he shook his head. "That would imply my parents breeding again, and the idea is scary."
"Why is that? You came out just fine."
Just fine~~ You're the one who's fine, Himawari-chan!
"But I'm the exception to the rule. I'm like a mutant or something, because my families are filled with weirdos. Give my parents' gene pools another chance and hey'll spawn a freak, with all that liqueur they've had."
Himawari laughed. She thought he was hard on his parents, bur he was still a funny guy.
