Aren’t you the most cutest little button ever ?

 With your rosy cheeks, your soft (h/c) hair and your sweet (e/c) eyes, no one could resist you. You were a 11-month orphan baby girl, waiting to be adopted by  a happy and loving family. The workers of the orphanage loved you deeply, taking care of you since you were a little newborn.

 Your real mother left you at their door months ago and everyone wondered how someone abandoned such a sweet baby like you. The only thing left by your real mommy was a tiny, light brown teddy bear wearing a white bow on its neck and that plushie was your very best friend along these 11 month of your life. 

You couldn’t sleep without it, and you will always cry if he was not around you. Not that you were troublesome, you were a pretty calm and lovable child but this tiny teddy bear was already the most important thing in your life. 

And guess what ? Today is a big day for you, because you received the visit of your potential new parents. The employes prepped you specially for this occasion, brushing your soft and delicate baby hair, while putting your little (f/c) pastel dress matching the tiny shoes that you wore. A real sugar cube smiling playfully.

 Few hours later and the couple made their way to you, entering the meeting room as you eyed them with wide and shy (e/c) eyes. They were both middle-aged and looked relatively nice. The man smiled at you as the woman reached your little hand playfully.

“She’s adorable !” she stated as you watched her caring fingers wrapping around your hand. You glanced at her once more in the arm of the employed young girl who was carrying you around. You found her round glasses rather funny as you laughed a bit, showing your four teeth to the world. The heart of the middle-aged woman began to melt before so much cuteness.

“She’s a little sweetheart indeed.” chuckled the employed young woman, brushing your hair lightly with her hand. The man was a little shy and stayed behind his wife, watching the scene while feeling his heart melting as well. You were just too cute to be real. The rest of the meeting went rather well, the couple was more than ready to welcome you in their life and the employes, after checking all the needed documents and papers works, gladly proceeded to the next step. They seemed like good parents plus; they apparently already had kids. Sextuplets to be right.

“I’m sure (Y/N) will be pleased to be in a lively house. She’s a playful and happy child.” stated the young employed woman as she strolled down their family reports. The couple smiled happily, visibly pleased by this news.

“(Y/N) will be the daughter we ever wanted…” began the middle-aged woman. That was true, they always wanted a girl, not that they didn’t loved their sons, they just wanted at least one daughter. Since they were too old for having a another child, they thought of adopting one. To be honest, they already planned to adopt you months ago. They just needed to accomplish all the procedure before so. The employed woman replied with a warm smile before taking some new documents behind her desk.

“Oh, i guess she’ll be lucky to have six older brothers caring for her then !” said the young woman as she handed them the papers with a black pen. “You need to sign here and there to complete the adoption…”

The couple glanced at each other with a determined and happy look as the husband stretch his arm to take the pen between his sweaty fingers. After signing the last paper, the employed women looked over the documents one last time, checking if everything was right, before smiling again to the lucky couple.

“Congratulation Mr and Mrs. Matsuno, i hope (Y/N) will be the daughter of your dream and you the family of hers.” 

****

Mr and Mrs. Matsuno left the orphanage with their new daughter and her belongings after nearly 3 hours of paper check. The warm breeze of autumn greeted your (s/c) cheeks as you glanced at the world around you, observing the lively streets while wearing your (f/c) coat and (sf/c) cap to protect you from the little cold of October. You were too little to understand the situation and you’ll probably forget this day when you’ll be a grown woman but deep in your heart, you felt more happy than usual. Maybe it’s because you loved to go out or the fact that you already liked your new parents. You glanced at your formerly new mother who was carrying you, wrapping up her warm arms around you with a smile on her face. Her glasses were very funny looking to you as you giggled with your cute voice, catching her attention.

“Oh dear, aren’t you so lovely ?” she said while hugging you with care. Like every baby, you loved hugs, pecks on your cheeks and other similar care. This was not an exception and you happily enjoyed every second of it. Matsuyo (that was her name) glanced at her husband who was carrying your belonging, nothing much, just a simple suitcase and a bag with everything packed inside by the care of the orphanage employes.

“Do you think the boys will like her ?” She asked with an ounce of worry in her eyes. Matsuzo (that was his name) chuckled and smiled at you before replying to her wife.

“Of course ! Who wouldn’t like such a child ?” Matsuyo sighed and nodded lightly. Yes, who wouldn’t like and love you after all ? She thought of your biological mother, a true jane doe for everyone. Why leaving such a child ? She sighed once more as they walk quietly. They weren’t too far from home. Your new home. “I just hope they’ll take the responsibility of having a little sister….” shared Matsuzo. He was convinced of the good hearts of his sons but...You really looked fragile and precious, and he knew too well how the boys were irresponsible sometimes. He didn’t want to go to the hospital or see you in any kind of trouble.

“...I’m sure everything will be alright.” said the woman as she adjusted your cap on your tiny ears. “They’re probably waiting for us right know, we should walk a little faster, it’s getting cold, I don’t want (Y/N) to get sick.”

“Agreed…” replied your new father as you rest your head on the chest of your new mother, not knowing what will wait for you in the Matsuno residence.

The sextuplets already knew about the adoption and everything. Right now they were waiting nervously your arrival at home. 

They didn’t even saw your picture, in fact they didn’t even knew how old you were exactly or anything else. No, they were just waiting, trying to play, read, sleep, eat or do whatever to clear their mind. 

The same question was floating in their mind. Will they be good brothers to you ? The room was filled with a weird tense while everyone were doing their own thing to kill the time.

“I wonder what Mom and Dad are doing.”

The four brothers glanced at the oldest as he just finished his sentence. He was wearing a hoodie, in fact they were all wearing the same hoodie with each different colors. The oldest was wearing a red tomato hoodie, and he was sitting by the table, crossing his leg and looking at the ceiling lazily. “I mean, it’s already been 3 hours….” 

The green one sighed as he turns the page of the book he was reading.

“They probably needed to do some procedure to complete the adoption. You know, like signing documents and such…” he replied a little annoyed. He did some research about the subject, adopting a child was not really that easily.Their parents must really want a daughter.The tomato one sighed as he scratches the tip of his nose. 

“The wait is killing me, seriously, why in the world they would want another child ? I mean, they already have us-”

“Because we are disappointing neets ?” This time it was the pink one who talked, looking at his phone in the corner of the table. His stretch his arm, reaching for the snack they bought earlier. The purple one glanced at them before sighing heavily, returning his attention to his cat friend.

“Thank you for that Totty…” grumbled the greeny as he clicked his tongue.

“And again, why a GIRL ??” whined the red one.
“You seriously didn’t know that mom wanted a daughter ??” replied the pink hoodie one looking at his brother in disbelief.

“Having a little sister isn’t a bad thing you know.” objected the green brother. “ I-i mean, little sisters are cute no ?”

“Gross.”

“You sound so gross Fappymatsu~”

“What ?! I didn’t mean cute in THAT way idiots ! And stop calling me that seriously !” exclaimed the greeny as he stood up, clenching his fists. “Plus, you’re the worst of us all Osomatsu !!” he said as pointed his finger at the red hoodie one. Osomatsu smiled crookedly, scratching the tip of his nose once more.

“Hey, calm down Fappymatsu, we were just joking-”

“I wasn’t.” said Totty with a cute and innocent smile.

This little pinky shit.

Fappymatsu was about to complain once again but was stopped by their second older brother who was wearing sunglasses and a blue hoodie.
“Oh, Brothers ~ I beg both of you to stop fighting ~ There’s no need to behave like this while waiting for our beloved Sister ~” he dramatically said while opening his arm in a theatrical manner. “I’m sure she will be our precious little Angel and-”

“I WANNA PLAY BASEBALL WITH HER !”

The blue was shoved out of the way by his other brother, the one who was wearing a yellow hoodie. He was know to be an hyperactive person, always smiling and screaming as he talks.

“Jyûshimatsu, i don’t think she’ll know how to play and-”

“Then i’ll TEACH her !” replied the yellow guy happily.

The blue sunglasses looked at his brothers as they ignored him. He eventually stood up again and returns to his side of the room, taking off his pair of sunglasses to clean them. He secretly hoped that you would not behave like everyone in the room. Despise his painfulness, he was a good and caring brother. His smiled a little, thinking about his future little imouto. He glanced at the others in the room. His green brother, Choromatsu trying to keep his cool while Jyûshimatsu was moving around happily as Osomatsu and Todomatsu (Pinky shit) watched the scene, eating snacks out of boredom. Ichimatsu (the silent purple one) was still in his corner, like usual but he, Karamatsu, the painful matsuno brother, could tell that even him was feeling rather nervous and excited at the same time.

 A few moments later, they all stopped talking as they heard the main door of the matsuno residence opened, letting the autumn cold in the house as their parents entered. All the boys froze as they all sit again, waiting for Mr and Mrs. Matsuno in the main room. You were a little sleepy by now, still in your new mother arms, your pacifier in mouth, sucking it times to times. Your cheeks were a little reddish due to the cold weather, the warm of your new house greeted you like a hot bath. It was so nice ! Soon as your formerly new parents took off their shoes, they began to walk carefully to the main room, were everyone was waiting more nervously than before.

They all gulped as their mother slide the door open, greeting them with a happy smile.
“Hello my neets.” She said softly.

 “Please, give a warm welcome to your little sister (Y/N).”

Chapter Text

You were still in the arms of Matsuyo as she presented you to your brothers.
You looked at them with your (e/c) wide eyes as they glanced over you, discovering your cute face.
A baby ?? They didn’t expect that !  
Carefully, your mother began to sat near them as Matsuzo entered the room slowly, not wanting to scare you.
The sextuplets didn’t know how to react and stayed frozen in space, feeling their heart melt before such a cutie.
You seemed a little intimidated by their presence though, you were a small cinnamon roll and even if you were a near-toddler, you weren’t very tall.
The matsuno brothers however were like giants to you and feeling their gaze upon you made you suddenly shy.

Sucking your pacifier, you stayed in the arms of the middle-aged woman, slightly hiding your face in her chest area, still looking at them by the corner of your eyes.
Their father recommended them to be very careful and calm around you, the time you adjust properly at your new home and family. Matsuyo stroked your (h/c) hair with her hand, whispering some gentle words in your ears to calm you down.
It worked, you felt a little bit more comfortable. This woman was very nice, you really liked her. Her motherly scent made you feel safe. Carefully, you eyed everyone of them as they smile nervously in return.

Ichimatsu was hurt by your cuteness really, you looked like a little lost kitten to him. He just wanted to pet and cuddle you so badly but he was scared that you would cry if he holds you in his arms.
Plus he didn’t want to let the others see his soft side, no, that would just be the worst. So he just stared at you, trying to give you a small (very small) smile when your (e/c) eyes glanced over him.

For the first time Osomatsu agreed with his green brother. Little sisters are too cute, well, you were at least.
He gave you his usual smile while rubbing his nose like he always does. To be honest, they all wanted to cuddle you right now. 

“She’s…..” started softly Osomatsu, not wanting to startle you. He did catch your attention by doing so, though.

“SO CUTE !!” Exclaimed the yellow one, jumping off his seat with his arm wide opens. You jumped a little, nearly dropping your pacifier as your heart beat raised up.
You looked at the happy man not knowing what to do.
He didn’t seem like he wanted to harm you but his energetic reaction startled you.

“Jyushimatsu !! Don’t scream like that, you’re scaring her !”said the pink one as he clenches his right fist, glancing at his hyperactive brother with a judging look.
The happy man lost his overly wide smile as he saw your reaction.
He didn’t want to scare you, but he was just too happy to have a little sister ! And you really seemed like the adorbs type, he already accepted you in his joyful heart.

“Okay….Sorry little sister…”

Jyushimatsu sat down again, crossing his legs while looking at you sadly.
Matsuyo chuckled lightly at the reaction of her sons and looked over her husband quickly before softly clearing her throat, catching everyone’s attention including you.

“It’s okay Jyushimatsu, she will get used to yours….hum….Hyper attitude…”  she said uncertainly.

“Hai !”

“Anyways, who want to carry her a bit ?” their mother proposed happily. You blinked at her, too shy to laugh at her funny glasses again.
She lifted you a little, making you facing your brothers. They quickly nervously exchange glares, waiting for others to volunteer.
None of them ever held a baby before. It was nerves wrecking. You seemed very fragile, what if one of them dropped you by accident ??! After a little moment Karamatsu finally lifted his shaky hand with a soft smile, gulping a bit. Matsuyo smiled.

“Choromatsu, come over here.” she said looking at her green son. He jumped a bit hearing his name and became sweatier all of the sudden.

“M-m-m-me ?? B-but….”

Karamatsu lifted his sunglasses with his raised hand, hiding his sad gaze.
Meh, he will carry you next. He was happy for his brother. 

Choromatsu was stuttering, trying to keep his cool while approaching you and Matsuyo. You blinked at him, watching his every movement without saying anything. He really thought that your (e/c) eyes were beautiful as he shakily stretched his arms to reach you.
Matsuyo lifted you again, and you soon found yourself in the arms of your third eldest brother. He tried to smile at you as everyone eyed the scene.

“H….H-hi…”

You looked at his reddish face, analyzing every feature of it as you stayed silent. His body temperature was very warm, you felt comfortable in his arms. His hair was also really pleasant to look at, you stretch your little hand to softly touch it. You could felt his heartbeat as he stayed silent, he didn’t knew how to react to this ! You were very light, much more than he expected. Matsuyo gave him a thumb up as you played with his hair one last time, feeling the dark and soft hair between your fingers. He gulped when you finally look at him again, touching his cheek with your palms.

“She’s…”

He couldn’t finish his sentence as you suddenly tried to touch his teeth. Matsuyo chuckled while Choromatsu held your hand, stopping you for doing so. He smiled a bit and placed his forehead on yours, slightly amused. He felt a little bit relaxed.

“She’s so lovely. I-i can’t believe she’s our sister…”

You felt a lot more comfortable now, even if they were rather intimidating, you knew that they wouldn’t want to harm you. At least, you knew that Choromatsu was nice. You giggled lightly as you began to hug his face with both of your arms. Ichimatsu was dying inside watching you being so lovable and innocent. He was kind of jealous right now….He secretly hoped that you would do the same to him. Todomatsu was taking the opportunity to take some photos with his phone, soon joined by his mother.  Osomatsu clicked his tongue as he poked the leg of his green brother. 

“Hey, I want to carry her too you know !”

Choromatsu glanced back at him and sighed. Why did he always ruin everything ?
“Okay...but just a bit. And be careful okay ? She’s still a baby remember.”

“Damn, I didn’t knew you were such a mom Fappymatsu.”

“Stop calling me that…” grumbled the greeny.

Choromatsu smiled at you before handing you to the red matsuno. You looked at him before facing the oldest of the sextuplets. He gave you a crooked smile of his while stroking your tiny head with his hand. Since he had the same face, you felt rather nice being in his arms. Osomatsu didn’t believe how precious you looked, he already wanted to protect from all of the evil in the world. Their parents were looking at you and how you seemed to open up a little rather quickly and shared a happy sigh. Finally, it looked like the perfect family they always wanted. Well, if you didn’t bring up the non-employed status of the boys.  Matsuyo stood up and decided to make some tea with something to celebrate your arrival. She left you with your brothers as Matsuzo decided to read his newspaper a bit in the other room.  He was a shy man despise his age and decided to wait a little before spending some times with you. Choromatsu decided to help his mother in the kitchen and gave you gentle look before leaving the room.  You touched Osomatsu face with the same curiosity as when you were with Choro , their skin were so soft and warm. You liked the feeling of it and you felt loved being held by the young man. Your little baby heart was pumping with love as you clapped your hands together, smiling lightly at the gaze that Osomatsu gave you.

“She….She smiled at me !” He said proudly. Todomatsu came a little closer as his older brother sat you on his lap, visibly shining with pride. Totty booped your nose lightly to get your attention and tried to tickle you softly under your chin. You let out your baby laugh, showing your teeth as your pacifier dropped down on the floor, pressing your back on Osomatsu to escape the tickles. Your voice was clear and light, melting all the hearts seeing you so innocent.

“And she laughed to me ~” chuckled Totty as he reaches for your pacifier, putting it on the table. Osomatsu scratched his nose once again. “Not fair as always Totty…”
You were facing the table now and felt less shy, so you started to lightly hit the wooden surface with your palms as you played a little with Todomatsu and Osomatsu.

“....Meh….”

For the first time since you were here, Ichimatsu opened his mouth to...well...somewhat produce a sound.
His deep and low voice quickly catches your attention as you turned your head in his direction.
You both stared at each other before he began to smile progressively…
And that was the moment chosen by Karamatsu to get in your sight, putting off his sunglasses as he always does.

“Heh, such a cute sweetheart ~ You, my Sister, are the only one true Karamatsu Angel !” He said with his “cool” voice.
You blinked curiously at him while Totty and Osomatsu shuddered before so much painfulness.

“Why Karamatsu ? Why are you so painful ??” Whined Totty as you tried to reach the sunglasses out of curiosity.
The blue bean wore his most painful smile. “But Totty, I’m normal ~”

“No, you’re not !”

“Ah, Sister ~ You will become my number one Karamatsu gir-”

He couldn’t finish his sentence as he was suddenly kicked out of the way by Ichimatsu. He ruined your small moment with the purple matsuno, but yet you didn’t understand what was the kick for. 

“....Too loud…” Grumbled Ichimatsu, irritated by the ruined moment.

You watched Karamastu as he was shoved on the ground.
The situation was rather funny, so you laughed, clapping your hand together again. The purple hoodie looked at you once more. Why this adorable kitten stepped in such house ? Did a trash like him deserved to have a sister like you ? If only he had the guts to play with you like Osomatsu and Totty….He felt rather bitter and decided to silently return to his corner. Karamatsu in the other hand was happy to see you laughing with your little baby voice. It didn’t bother him if he’s being kicked out like this. If you laughed, it means that you’re spending a great time with them, which was worth it !
He smiled and put his sunglasses on.

Your shyness was long gone by then, and you started to chirp happily as the brothers continued to play with you.
Jyushimatsu wanted to hold you too, and he decided to take you from his brother as soon as there was an opening.

“CATCH !”

“EHH ?! Be careful Jyushimatsu ! She’s fragile !”

You didn’t know what was happening but you felt like you were flying as your yellow brother held you up in the air. He glanced at you with pure happiness, his smile way more wide than usual. It was utterly contagious. You began to smile again, really amused by the yellow hoodie man.

“ ….Jyushi….”

“Hey, Jyushi ! Give her back !”

“ Careful Brother !”

He finally stopped and start to hold you close. You hugged his face like you did with Choromatsu earlier. He loved that !

“ But, it’s my turn now !” he exclaimed as he cuddle you like a teddy bear. You felt his love toward you, and you felt really happy being him. Not only Jyushi but all of them.
The yellow matsuno sat down to cuddle and tickles you more, Karamatsu decided to stay beside you two and he quickly poked his brother shoulder.

“Hey, my little Jyushimatsu ~ Can I hold her after you ?”

“Hai !”

Matsuyo and Choromatsu came back soon after with tea and everything to celebrate your arrival.
You tasted some iced cake and even pears ! The little baby that you were enjoyed every second spent at the matsuno residence but you still had much more to explore and discover within this house !

Feeling tired after all of this, you fell asleep on Karamatsu lap. He lifted you with a smile, so you can sleep more comfortably, he was indeed a very caring brother. The blue bean stroked your (h/c) baby hair hoping that you’ll have sweet dreams.

“Rest well my Karamastu Angel.” 

Chapter Text

The day wasn’t over. The great afternoon you spend with your new family was delightful and now the evening had just began.
The cloudy sky was tinted in light purple and bright orange as the sun set slowly on the city. The nap on Karamatsu chest was quickly over, and you found yourself alone in the main room with Matsuzo, your father.
He was watching you while drinking tea and doing the crosswords of the day as usual. He was a regular yet nice middle-aged man, always reading the daily newspaper and enjoying all the little things life has offered to him so far. This man was a good father to his sons and he was a little bit shaky around you. Even if you were still a near-toddler, he didn’t really know how to handle daughters even if he wanted one for a long time. He really hoped to be the best dad you could ever have.

Glancing quickly at you, he smiled as you crawled on your knees to reach the few toys you had back at the orphanage. Just as your fingers were wrapping around your small and soft (f/c) ball, your tiny nose began to itch as you finally sneeze quite loudly. The ball escaped from your hands and rolled a little farther on the soft carpet that dressed the floor of the room. After rubbing your nose with your clenched fist, you decided to chase after the bouncy toy, chirping like you called after it. Matsuzo chuckled lightly before continuing his crossword peacefully, sipping tea time to time.
The matsuno residence was rather quiet, you could hear noises coming from the kitchen. Matsuyo was cleaning the dishes while humming an old lullaby, the one she hummed to the sextuplets when there were around your age.

You sat there after successfully catching your toy, the tiny ball was now between your legs as you looked at your surroundings, a little tired by your game. The room was colorful like the rest of the house and more cozy than the orphanage, Matsuyo was doing a great job for keeping everything clean. You searched for the funny looking giants you played with earlier but unfortunately, your six brothers weren’t anywhere to be found. In fact, they all went out to the bath house before heading to their favorite stand of oden.They asked their mother to pick you with them, but you were way too young for all of that. A little bit sad to not find the sextuplets, your (e/c) eyes settled on your new dad. He nibbled his pen in front of his crosswords page; he was struggling silently as he stumbled on a tricky word. You stared at him, keeping your toy close to your baby chest. You didn’t have the chance to spend time with this person, so you were a little bit curious about him. Like the rest of the matsuno, he didn’t seem like a bad guy, in fact he’s bunny like teeth were kind of funny. You chirped to get his attention, but he was too focused into finding the right word and finalize the crosswords of the day to notice you. The little baby that you were decided to crawl your way to him, maybe he didn’t heard you ? The (f/c) ball rolled in the corner while you approach the middle-aged man, soon reaching his lap. You chirped again happily to try catching his attention once more, he glanced down at you with a surprised look on his face. Matuzo didn’t expect you to come to him by yourself and gently patted your back before picking you up and held your tiny self into his fatherly arms.

“What are you doing (Y/N) ?” He asked with a smile. You replied to him with another giggly chirp, clapping your baby hands together. He chuckled and strokes your hair lightly. He understood somewhat why his sons were so careful and nervous to carry you, you were so light and fragile ! You looked over the table with curious (e/c) orbs.

“I’m doing crosswords, maybe i’ll show you how to play when you’ll older.” He said seeing your curious look. It would be great if you liked crosswords in the future, since the sextuplets found it boring and his wife wasn’t really interested, it could be a thing to share between you two. Matsuzo watched you as you tried to reach the papers and the pen. He decided to tickles you softly, to distract you from doing so. It worked as you laughed playfully, trying to escape the tickles. The room went to silent as playfully loud real quick, full of both of your laughs. The orphanage employe was right about you, you were a lively and happy child, something everyone wanted to protect at all cost. Just as Matsuzo decided to take a little break, his wife entered the room with a wide smile on her face. You greeted her with a chirp as she picked you up to carry you in her arms.

“You didn’t laugh like this in ages Matsuzo.” She stated happily.

“Haha...That’s true…” He replied shyly, watching you in the arms of his wife. You were trying to catch the glasses of the woman, but she soon took your hand gently to prevent you for doing so, exactly like Choromatsu did when you tried to touch his teeth. “What are you going to do now ?” He asked after a moment looking at Matsuyo as she goes to opened your little suitcase, visibly looking for something.

“Oh, since the boys will come home a little late, I’m going to make her take her bath before bedtime. You want to come ?” Asked the middle-aged woman while retrieving some change for you. Her husband had a nervous gesture to her proposition. She blinked at him curiously, not aware of what was making him reacting like this.
“W-well, i think it’s better if you go alone. I mean...I still have to finish my crosswords.”

Yes, he was technically your father now, but he wasn’t ready to take you to bath time. Again, he was a very shy man. Matsuyo chuckled a bit before heading to the bathroom.

“Okay dear, good luck with your crossword.” she said softly before leaving the room, still carrying you as you watched your daddy waving at you.

****

Bath time. Who didn’t love bath time ? You sure do ! When Matsuyo pulled you into the bathtub filled with warm and soapy water, you found yourself in heaven ! Bubbles were everywhere and it was so fun to hit the water with the palms of your hands while the woman tried to wash your back.

“Careful (Y/N) ! You’re going to get me all soaked !” Warned your mommy, chuckling at the cute look you gave her. You didn’t really get what she was saying and continued to play with the water, chirping happily. Matsuyo sighed and decided to let go this time; you were still a baby after all, it didn’t really matter. The woman took the bottle of shampoo (the one she bought just for you ! ) and started to press it. You saw the pink liquid soap being poured on the hand of the middle-aged woman. What was that ? It looked so smooth ! Matsuyo began to wash you hair with the baby shampoo, taking care you didn’t get soap in your eyes. It smelled nice, and you liked it. The small  bathroom was soon filled with the sweet vanilla fragrance of the shampoo, letting you in a warm world of bubbles as you playfully chirped making your mother smile.

****

Earlier this evening, a short young man deployed his oden stand. Oden was a typical japanese meal and was this young man burning passion, every time he thinks, he thinks the oden way. He smelled oden, talked oden and was proud to tell that his oden was the best of the entire universe. His entire life was guided by oden !

The cold air of October didn’t made much difference for a passionate man like he was, so tonight wasn’t an exception. The delicious smell of his cooking was just beginning to spread around the stand when he was visited by his loyal customers, six young mens sharing the same damn face.

“Aaah Chibitaa !” Exclaimed one of the guy, lifting a hand to salute the passionate young cook while the other five and himself sat on the wooden bench of the stand. Chibita glanced at the red wearing man as he clicked his tongue on his teeth, frowning a bit.

“You idjit….I hope you’re going to pay your tab today…” He grumbled bitterly. These neets never paid for their meals and he was seriously getting sick of it. He needed to be paid for his work like everybody else, even if oden was a true passion to him, it was still his job for crying out loud. Osomatsu gave him one of his stupid crooked smile while scratching his nose as always, another thing that irritated Chibita in a way.

“Don’t worry, we’re going to pay this time. But for now….We want beer and oden !” Exclaimed the elder of the matsuno crew. The others started to follow their brother, asking for drinks and something to fill up their stomachs. Chibita sighed heavily before starting the service, grumbling as he filled six bowls with his tasty cooking.

“I hope you mean it this time Osomatsu, you idjit….” Said the short man as he displayed each bowls in front of the sextuplets. They seemed really happy this evening; Chibita noticed it as he began to serve the beers. “The hell are y’all so happy about, you idjits ??”

“WE HAVE A LITTLE SISTER !” Exclaimed happily the yellow one, raising his chopsticks in the air, spilling sauce over the counter. His brother glared at him and pointed to the mess he just provoked.

“Jyushimatsu….look at what you did…”

“Oh. Sorry Choromatsu…”

“It’s okay, just be careful next time.” Responded the green brother. Chibita tilted his head slightly, raising an eyebrow. A sister ? Them? If it were true, he already would pity you. He grabbed something to wipe the sauce Jyushimatsu wasted when he decided to yield to his sudden curiosity.

“A...sister ? What the hell are you talking about you idjits ?!”

Karamatsu took a painfully cool pose while sipping a bit of his beer while Todomatsu giggled by unblocking his phone.

“Heh, of course we have a sister~ ! She’s the only one Karamatsu angel in this entire universe ~ ! Ah~~ she’s so lucky to have me, Karamatsu, as a brother ~ !” Expressed theatrically the blue bean, sparkling with painfulness as the other began to shudder.

“Seriously…”

“PAIN, PAIN, PAIN !”

“.....Urgh….”

“Are you serious, how can you be so painful….” Todomatsu cringed as he searched for a cute picture of you on his phone. “Ah ! Look, Chibita. Isn’t she so cute ?” He asked cutely, showing a picture of you eating some iced cake in your (f/c) tiny dress. Chibita looked over the screen and couldn’t help himself but smile for a moment. Yep, he pitied you so much for having such irresponsible brothers. You seemed so tiny that the passionate cook feared you’d break into pieces with brothers like them.

“Our parents adopted her this morning; she’s officially our little sister since this afternoon.” Explained Choromatsu. “She seemed to adjust pretty well to us actually !” he continued with a happy smile.

“Yeah, she even smiled at me !”

“She smiled at everyone you idiot !”

“BEER !”

“Jyushimatsu ! Your spilling sauce again !”

“......meh….”

The stand was sure lively with all of them around and that’s something Chibita liked a bit since he lived alone for years now. He didn’t really saw many babies in his lonely life, but he agreed with the pink matsu about you being cute.

“She seems lovely but….a baby ? I’m scared that you’ll be irresponsible to her, you idjits…”

“What ?!” Exclaimed Osomatsu. “Why do think that ? We’re the MOST responsible guys ever !”

“The hell ?! Why you never paid for your damn tab then you idjit ?!”

“Well, that’s because we’re too responsible for that.”

“What does that even mean ??!”

Osomatsu smiled at the screaming man before sipping his beer happily, he was more than convinced to be the perfect brother of all, what Chibita was so worried about ? Choromatsu was looking at his bowl, thinking silently. While he was helping his mother in the kitchen earlier, he took the opportunity to ask her about you.

“She was abandoned…” he began saddly.

Everyone looked at the green clad with wide eyes.

“Her mother didn’t want her; she left her at the orphanage door when she was still a newborn.” Explained Choromatsu with a sad look on his face. He looked back at Chibita with a little smile while his other brothers started to wear sad expressions. Being left by your own mother was.….Something awful.

“I know we’re just disappointing neets but I’ll do my best to offer (Y/N) the best family for her. I think everyone do, right guys ?” He insured glancing at his brothers who nodded in response. A silence fell on the oden stand, creating a strange atmosphere but now that Chibita knew the story a bit, he thought it was better for you to be with the Matsunos after all. The parents of the sextuplets were known to be good peoples, and the six fools were not bad guys in the end. Choromatsu chuckled nervously.

“W-well….i-i mean…We’ll do good...right ?”

“Aaah you damn idjits !!” Exclaimed the young cook. They all glanced at him, a bit surprised by his sudden reaction. “Since it’s a special day today, i’ll offer you the service tonight….But JUST tonight. Understand you idjits ??”

They all smiled and lifted their bowls, their eyes sparkling with appetite. Free food was always more tasty and enjoyable !

“HAI !”

The rest of the evening went as usual, they began to get tipsy and drunk soon after the generous offering of the short. When they got back to the Matsunos residence, everyone was peacefully sleeping. They didn’t get to see you before heading to their bedroom as you slept in the parental room with your parents. It didn’t really matter though, they were way too drunk to do anything more than sleep right in the middle of their room.

Chapter Text

You slept very well that night. Everything was so different and new for you; the room, the bed and the warm. Even if you were a little baby, you could tell the difference between your new house and the orphanage. Sleeping with someone who cared for you was ten times better than sleeping in a small bed with wooden bars, all alone.You slept close with your adoptive mother, feeling her calming heart-beat, making you feel safe under the covers. Your little hands held your teddy bear close to you and you had your pacifier in your mouth. Of course, you didn’t hear anything when your brothers came home past midnight and that was for the better. In fact, nothing could interrupt your sleep; it was so comfy and pleasant. So the night went by quickly and soon the next morning was set.

Usually, Jyushimatsu was the first one to be up at 6:50am. But he drank a little bit too much at Chibita’s stand last night so he was miraculously still sleeping when his parents got up. You soon wake up as well when you felt Matsuyo leaving the futon, rubbing your eyes with your little fist. You soon were greeted by their love, wishing you a good morning. Today was Monday and Matsuzo had to go to work, having a big family needed to be a responsible worker, paying the bills, buying groceries and since his sons weren’t the type to get a stable life, he was the only one to accomplish this task.

At least Todomatsu had a part-time job, that was an accomplishment for him. While your father was in the shower, Matsuyo took you to the sextuplets room, you looked at her curiously as she gave you a gentle smile before entering the bedroom. The air in the room was heavy, probably due to the six bodies sleeping in the center, tangled in the sheets. Your gaze was immediately attracted to your big brothers snoring as you still held your teddy bear in your arms. You made a gesture towards the sextuplets, you wanted to go play with them ! Matsuyo had a light smile by seeing your impatience, it was so cute to see that you already become attached to the family. Heaving a sigh, she kissed your cheek before putting you down to the ground, near the brothers. Almost immediately you crawled towards the closest to play with his face.

"Get up the boys! You have drunk too much yesterday !" Threw their mother, a little annoyed to have to wake them like childrens. She still remembered when they used any excuses to not leave the bed, many years ago when she was still considered being a young person. The woman went to the window and opened curtains in one big gesture, letting in the morning light. We heard growls while Mrs. Matsuno opened the window to begin to aerate the room. Today the sky was cleared, the weather was going be beautiful in spite of the cold present. Matsuyo says to herself that it would be the perfect day to do the laundry.

Meanwhile, the small baby that you were had fun with the hand of one of the boys. It was quite soft and warm, you liked resting your fingers on the masculine palm. Your hand looked so small ! The morning wind made you shiver a little, caressing your baby's soft face. Matsuyo had another smile by seeing you; She approached her sons to continue to wake them. The first one who opened eyes was Todomatsu, the youngest of sextuplets. Since he had to work in the afternoon, he had been careful not to drink too much. He woken up first because something played with his hand and was kind of surprised finding you, in the middle of their futon in your baby's pajamas, giggling while hugging his hand.

" Oh... Good morning ( Y/N). " He says with a smile. He caught you gently to bring you against him while you threw one of your innocent looks. Now against his chest, you could hear his calming heartbeat, same as when you slept near Matsuyo. He looked at his mother with a sad expression.

" Mom, please, closes the window! " He complained by tightening you a little more against him, as to warm himself. " It’s freezing outside ! "

"Stop whining and get up! " Adds the middle-aged woman while she went to the corridor. " I leave ( Y/N) with you, I’m going to head downstairs, wake your brothers and come have your breakfast. “

"... Ok … "

Matsuyo waved her hand at you before taking the direction of the kitchen, leaving you with your six brothers. Totty pushed a long sigh without moving a single inch, keeping you against him like a teddy bear. It was comfortable ! He quickly noticed that you looked at him with your big eyes and threw you a smile.

"How are you sis ? " He asked softly as he gently stroked your hair.

You blinked a little before sneezing suddenly. The morning breeze got you good on this one ! The boy laughed and pulled down the cover to protect both of you from the wind. You very felt at ease now. The bedding was soft and smelt the washing powder, also Todomatsu body was warm as well. Unconsciously, you pressed yourself a little more against him, rubbing your small nose with your fist while your little head rested close to his heart, listening quietly to his beat.

" Awww….you're so cute! "

You both stayed like that a few minutes without moving, the time Todomatsu turned on his phone, checking his mails. The boy decided to get up for good as the smell of food came to float to their room. As he straightened up, he took care to leave you lying under the blankets so that you would not catch too cold. Once standing, he proceed to lightly kick his five big brothers to wake them up.

"Hey, wake up. It's the morning already. "

Karamatsu was the second to wake up, he took his head in one hand while grunting slightly. He regretted drinking so much last night, he needed an aspirin. The young man rubbed his eyes as he watched his younger brother, who was looking at his phone.

".... What time is it Brother?"

"7:35 am."
"Oh…."

He was going to lengthen when he noticed you playing with your teddy bear, lying where Todomatsu was sleeping, that is, right next to him. He smirked before getting closer.

"Sister ! What are you doing here ? "

You looked at him smiling and handed him your teddy bear. He grabbed it gently and watched it for a moment.

"He's very cute." He stated softly before starting playing with you, taking the plush and making it walk on your stomach as he voiced the toy. He made you little tickles with it and you soon laughed happily. Todomatsu took advantage of this to take pictures of the two of you before taking the direction of the bathroom in order to freshen up. Little by little the others awoke in their turn, all surprised to see you with them so early in the morning. Choromatsu kissed your forehead lightly (and quite shyly.). Glad to see them again; you shared your happy mood with everyone and it warmed the hearts to see you already happy in the morning, a true ray of sun to begin the day. Even Ichimatsu was in a pretty good mood, which was surprising when he drunk too much the night before or even the morning in general. Afterwards, his good humor was summarized not to hit Karamatsu at the first opportunity, otherwise he wore his usual expression.

But if you glanced at him quickly, you could catch small smiles on his face as he looked at you in the distance. Karamatsu decided to stay with you this morning, and it was in his arms that you went down to the main room to have your breakfast with everyone. The table was already set, ready to feed you all as the parents were eating in the next room with the door slightly open to keep a sight of their seven childrens. Matsuyo made a gesture to her second son, Karamatsu, who came closer, carrying you in his arms.

“Yes, Mother ?”

"Karamatsu, (Y / N) bottle is ready, could you give her?" She asked, handing him the bibber full of hot chocolate. He nodded before grabbing the still warm baby bottle.

"Be careful that it’s not too hot for her" Matsuzo added as he finished his own breakfast.

"I will, do not worry Father!" The young man replied dramatically, raising the bottle in the air in a theatrical manner. His parents shared a cringing look as you could see sparkles in his eyes. Meanwhile, you were staring at your bottle with envy, hunger taking over as you wave your arms squeaking for your breakfast.

"Yeah..eum...Go back at the table and give her her hot chocolate, please.” Lasted Matsuyo as she served herself some rice.

Your brother nodded as he returns with the others, soon after Karamatsu handed you the bottle that you put in your mouth with eagerness, drinking the chocolate milk with ardor, almost choking at the same time. The blue matsuno patted your back with a worried look on his face as you began to cough loudly.

"Slow down (Y / N) ..." He said with a soft voice. "You'll hurt yourself if you drink like that ..."

The others also looked at you while eating, an ounce of anxiety in their looks as you continued to cough. You were sitting on the blue bean lap, like yesterday, holding your baby bottle with your hands. Choromatsu sighed as he watched you regain your breath.

“I guess she was very hungry…” He said with a slight smile.

“THANKS FOR THE MEAL !”

“Urgh…. too loud Jyushi….My head..” grumbled Osomatsu. He was the one who drank the most last night, his hangover was killing him. Choromatsu handed a glass of water with an aspirin to the red matsu, a look shared between disgust and pity. Jyushimatsu got up, ignoring the complain of his older brother and began his daily routine, that is, get ready to go out to go to play baseball. When he passed near you and Karamatsu, he ruffled your hair, laughing, his smile as bright as the sun. Your eyes followed his lively figure as he left your field of vision to go upstairs, certainly to get dressed and get ready for the day.

Matsuzo had also left his table to get ready to go to the work, arranging his tie and discussing with his wife about random stuff. Karamatsu ate quietly, sharing his meal with you. He found cute the way you crunched his the tip of his chopstick with your small teeths when he gave you food, he did not even noticed that his fourth brother watched him from the corner of the eye. Osomatsu and Choromatsu were discussing together whereas Totty was plunged into his phone. You had finished your hot chocolate by then, and you chewed your food observing the group, several times, you raised your head to watch the kind Kara giving you smiles or speak to you friendly.

"..... Shut up…..It’s probably because you're with her…. " Retorted the young man by watching you going down of the knees of his brother to crawl towards him, becoming more and more nervous every second. Arrived at his feets, you put your hands on his leg to stand up, trying not to fall behind. You just began to get up by setting press on a support but you had another no sense of balance yet. Very soon, you will certainly achieve your first step, as for now, you were standing beside Ichimatsu. He began to be silently anxious while he looked at you with his empty eyes, his mind racing. What if you began to cry? He didn’t know how to react at all ! You threw him a small squeak and held out one of your hands towards him, as to give him some things. Your other hand firmly held the fabric of his sleeve not to fall, while Ichimatsu panicked inside, imagined himself the worst case scenarios possible. He was frozen on the spot while you observed his face, still smiling. Your (e/c) eyes reminded him the eyes of the kittens whom he was unable to resist.The power of moe was just too strong.

Karamatsu looked at the scene with amusement and finished his bowl while other matsu cleared their table to get ready in their turn, Todomatsu had to go to work later and had to go into town before whereas Osomatsu planned to go take a nap upstairs, his head still hurting. Choromatsu decide to go to the bookshop to bought new books. Finally, Ichimatsu raised his hand and petted your head like he does with the cats, he did not know how to react and decided to do as if you were really a kitten. It was a strange way to think like that but it was the only thing which allowed him to find a glint of normal state.Your hair was quite soft and silky between his fingers. It was just too much for his heart. Why was he so sensitive to cute stuff ?! Quite satisfied to be petted, you did not really pay anymore attention to your balance and you fell behind.

Fortunately for you, you had two older brothers present to catch you and Ichimatsu was the fastest to react. He possessed very well reflexes and had just caught you in time, holding you in his arms. Karamatsu, which had missed to suffocate with its rice by seeing you, almost fall, greeted his brother enthusiastically. Of course, Ichi offered him his dead looks while he kept you against him. You could hear his heart beat very fast… Slowly, you raised your face towards his, and you began to make what you adored making since you had arrived in this house; Touch the faces of your brothers and cuddle them with your tiny arms. Ichimatsu did not expect you to do that, he froze almost immediately when he felt that you were cuddling him. Why did you have to be so innocent ? Why did you do that to a trash like him? Karamatsu had a small laughter and got up, clearing his part and walked past his brother.
" Heh, she does after all ~” He insured “ I' ll leave you with her, my Karamatsu girls are waiting for me~ " he said while going out of the room. Ichimatsu looked at you and turned very fast to his brother.

" Wait!! I don’t know how to-"

You put your hand on his face to touch his nose, interrupting him. Karamatsu already left to get dressed and there was only the two of you in the main room. Ichimatsu swallowed a bit while removing your hand of his face with precautions, blinking in front of your cheerful and adorable face.

It looks like you were going to spend the day with him.

Chapter Text

Ichimatsu was sitting in the corner of the room, watching you play with your toys. It had been 25 minutes since you played quietly while your older brother thought about a way to isolate itself. Not that he did not like you, in fact, it was quite the opposite, it's just that the young man was very, very shy. To the point that he suffered from it. He would like to come and play with you , he wanted it since your arrival but something at the bottom of his heart prevented him from doing so.

It was stronger than him!

All these years to flee what made him uncomfortable, weighed painfully on his shoulder, nevertheless he really wanted to change. To have friends, be able to discuss with people without wanting to hide underground and to feel at ease with his new younger sister. For God's sake, you were only a baby after all! Why couldn’t he do it? He bit his lower lip trying to calm down. His shyness was a virus, a disease which suffocated him.

Quickly, he glanced towards his younger sister to see her in her small bubble, babbling while playing with her tiny (f/c) ball. Ichimatsu began to smile, wondering what you would become when you’ll grow up. Certainly a young woman as pretty as a heart, the kind to make the heads turns. He loved your eyes. They exalt happiness and seem to sparkle every time you looked at him. All the opposite of the trash that he was. His eyes wasn't pretty as yours, well that's what he though of himself, nothing near words like 'pretty', 'handsome' or even 'worth to live'. The only thing he was sure of was that he would kill anyone who dared to approach you. Your future pretenders will have to live a hell signed Ichimatsu Matsuno before they can go out with you. His inner thoughts were interrupted by the sudden arrival of his mother, Matsuyo, bringing clothes and changes for you.

"Oh, Ichimatsu, you're still here ? I thought Karamatsu was keeping (Y/N) ... " She said, crouching down beside you as you dropped your toys to crawl at her. The woman took you in her arms and gives you a big hug before lying you down to change your diaper. Her fourth son shrugged, looking at the opposite direction.

"... He went to the park... As usual..."

"I see…"

While his mother was taking care of you, Ichimatsu looked down at the window, still sitting in his corner. The sky was clear, illuminated by the sunlight while no clouds were visible on the horizon. It was still cold on this autumn morning although nothing was comparable to the biting cold of winter. Ichimatsu began to wonder if ithe snow was still coming this year, recalling the memories of past winters. The snowball battles with his brothers in the park, the delicious shabu-shabu of his mother, the scratching sweaters and of course the christmas period. All those fond memories he had with his family was important to him and he hoped that you would also have good times at their sides.

Outwardly, he seemed to be cold, distant, neglected and sometimes sadistic, but at bottom he was an adorable and sensitive person. Besides, he began to think that it would be a good idea to start contributing to buy a nice gift for Christmas. He would talk about it to Choromatsu when he comes home.

For now, he turned his gaze to his little sister, silently observing as usual. Matsuyo had just put you a clean diaper when her eyes fell on the clock that decorated the chest, uttering a long sigh. She had so much to do today, a whole morning of laundry and then an afternoon of shopping. Moreover, her back was already hurting her so early in the morning and it was often a bad sign. Meanwhile, you had fun catching your feets, always lying down and wearing a single layer, concentrated to touch and stir your little toes. Ichimatsu smirked, a smile that disappeared instantly when his mother turned his gaze on him. She seemed to ponder while staring at her son, which made him feel uncomfortable after a few seconds. He didn't like when people stared at him like that...

"Ichimatsu?" She inquired a little thoughtfully.

"... Yes ...?" He replied in his grave, slow voice. He did not know why there were difficulties for the parents. He swallowed and began to sweat slightly.

"Could you dress (Y / N) and keep her with you? I have to go and do the least and later to go out later ..." She paused to sigh and put her hands on her hips thinking of everything What she is doing. Mom's life was really tiring. "I'm sorry, I think I have it for the day and seeing that you're the only one at home ... well, I do not count Osomatsu seen the state in it is, he risks sleeping a good part of the Day ... "

"......"

What?! Him ?? But ... .. He did not know how to look after a child, let alone a baby! It was the last person to know how to do that! Moreover his mother knew it very well ... It is necessary for him too, maybe he is not in this kind of situations !! And he could not see himself on the park to ask Shittymatsu for help, rather die! The young man was beginning to feel more and more nervous over time. Matsuyo noticed it and gave a slight smile.

"Do not worry, I'll give you all the instructions and you're afraid of doing something stupid ... I'm sure you'll take care of her Ichimatsu, do you get along well with cats not?" She said for the reassure. Of course, if he himself for simple words for the arranger his situation, there is a biography following. He opened his mouth to talk no more words came out, what was he going to say after all huh? 'Sorry Mom, but I'm a bunch of junk to take care of the little one, since I'm worthless I leave you with all the work to go coach in a dark and dirty lane ??' And then a cat It was different from a baby! This argument was worthless! Finally, he looked down and tried to calm down. There were no guts to say no to his mother.

"..... Okay ...".

"Ichimatsu?" She inquired a little thoughtfully.

"... Yes ...?" He replied in his grave, slow voice. He didn't know why but he was beginning to expect the worst. He swallowed and began to sweat slightly.

"Could you dress (Y/N) and keep her today? I have to do the laundry and go out this afternoon ..." She paused to sigh, putting her hands on her hips, thinking of all she had to do. The life of a mother was tiring and always full! "I'm sorry but I think I'll be busy all day and seeing that you're the only one at home .... I do not count Osomatsu, seen in the state in which he is, he may well sleep a good part of the day ... "

"......"

What ?! Him ?? But .... He didn't know how to take care of a child and even more of a baby! He was the last person who had the ability to do so, and his mother knew it very well ! What was he going to do ? He also didn't see himself going to the park seeking the help of Shittymatsu, he rather die than doing so !

The young man began to feel increasingly nervous over the minutes, which Matsuyo immediately noticed, making her laugh slightly.

"Don't worry, I'll give you all the instructions in case you're afraid of committing a mistake. I'm sure you'll take good care of her, aren't you doing well with street cats, right? It's not much different you'll see! " She said to reassure him. The young man opened his mouth to answer but no sounds came out. What could he say anyway ?? 'Sorry mom, I'm a bunch of junk that's useless and can not care for a baby' ?? And then, a cat and a baby it was not the same thing, this argument was worth nothing! Finally, he lowered his head and looked at his feet, trying to calm down. He had no guts to say no to his mother.

"..... Okay ...".

"Thank you Ichimatsu !" Matsuyo cheerfully answered to her son. She took you in her arms and grabbed the clothes to give to her son. He placed them at his feet without words and slowly stretched out his arms to take you in his turn. Of course, you took the opportunity to stuff your hands in his tangled hair before sitting on his lap. The young man wanted to run away while you were staring at him with your wide (e/c) eyes. His hoodie was soft and freshly washed, mingling its smell with that of the laundry, you very much liked the sensation of the fabric against your skin. It was then that he began to catch the purple top of the poor neet, ignoring the fact that he was tensing up, not knowing how to react to your actions. You end up stuffing your face against him and rubbing your cheek against the fabric, feeling his warm chest below his top. Matsuyo's smile widened as his son seemed about to die

"She must really like you ~" laughed the middle-aged woman.

Ichimatsu did not answer, he did not understand how you could be so cuddly with a junk like him, maybe you were really like a cat? Maybe the babies could feel the aura of people ?? That made no sense! Slowly, he began to stroke your hair awkwardly while you cuddle harder. Yes. He suddenly needed to go to the bathroom. He looked nervously at his mother as she began to laugh louder before explaining to him what to know about babies. Poor Ichi, he didn't feel being able to change diapers or even feed such a small human... Even spending time with someone as adorable as you! He could feel your face tickling his skin through his hoodie and was struggling to not succumb to the urge to hide.

A few minutes later, Matsuyo left you both to take care of the laundry. Your brother gulped, looking at the little clothes, always beside him. He could feel your hands still holding his purple hoodie. You did not move and you kept your head against him. Eventually, he decided to start dressing you, fearing that you would catch cold. He unfolded the clothes, being careful not to spoil them; There were a simple light-brown long-sleeved dress and white tights. A simple but cute set. The young man looked nervously at the tights....

How was he going to put that on you ?!

*****

After finally getting dressed properly, Ichimatsu sighed and looked at you silently. Seriously, he did not know how fragile a baby could look! Nothing like cats ! Just by trying to put your feet in the pantyhose, he was afraid to hurt you. Especially as you moved and moved a lot, which made the task even harder ...Well, he had succeeded to the task, and you were finally ready to the day. Your big brother relaxed a bit when you choose to abandon his lap to play with your toy cubes. He sighed and sank to the ground, his head on a cushion, as his eyes began to fix the ceiling. A new day had begun in his miserable life and now he was playing the babysitter, the young man was wondering what he was going to do today. Usually, he went out to feed and play with the cats. Alone. Often in a dark alley buried beneath garbage and trash cans, a place he considered worthy of him.

The sound of plastic cubes breaks the silence while you enjoy having them bang them together.

Ichimatsu glanced at you again, looking pensive. A little lost kitten, that's what you were, abandoned by your mother when you looked so frail and weak. Although it was heart-wrenching to him to think about your story, he was glad that his parents took the initiative of welcoming you into their family. Taken in your game, you dropped your cubes to go catch your (f/c) ball. You hadn't noticed that Ichimatsu was staring at you the whole time, although after a little while you felt being watched. Your eyes met his a few seconds later. The young man tried to smile at you, feeling his sudden nervousness crawling again. Blinking, you showed him your toy, chirping like you tried to tell him something. He raised an eyebrow and looked at you questioningly.

".....You want to play ?"

You did not answer, but you kept a nice smile on your face. Of course you were not going to answer, you were only a baby! Ichimatsu felt stupid and detached his gaze from his little sister, cursing internally at his own stupidity. Silence settled again. Your eyes did not detach from the boy when you decide to crawl to him to attract his attention again, maybe he would accept to play with you? Keeping the ball in one of your hands, you began to crawl towards him. The thing is that you didn't anticipate the ball to be so slippery, and you eventually fall forward, banging loudly your nose against the ground. The pain brought tears to your eyes and you began to cry. Alerted by the noises, he straightened up quickly, his eyes riveted on you as his heart tightened when you began to cry.

"O-oh no, d ... d-don't cry please !"He exclaimed as he approached his little sister in tears. Your nose was red and with trembling hands, he took you in his arms to console you. The contact of his hoodie against your face does you good, but nothing to dry your tears. So you were still crying in his arms as he tried to find a way to get your smile back. He did not know what to do at all, since he suddenly remembers seeing a mother console her child at the park and decided to do the same a little awkwardly.

"... P-please ..." He said trying to have a softer voice. "D-don't c-cry (Y / N) ..."

His hand began to stroke your hair, careful not to make your condition worse. Seeing you cry was horrible. He ends up cuddling your back softly as you stuff your head in his neck, sobbing. The smell of his skin and his softened voice had managed to calm you down a little, you liked to feel his big warming hand stroking your back. You felt safe with him. Meanwhile, poor Ichimatsu was more than nervous than ever! He didn't dare move now that you had almost calmed down. If only you knew how small you were in his arms ! And despite his discomfort, he liked to have you against him.  

He finally took a deep breath and tried to relax, since you wanted to stay in his arms, he returned to his place while keeping you against him. You were there, not moving an inch and still sobbing while a silence settled in the room. The window was open, and you could hear the sounds of the city as well as the trees lulled by the wind. You listened to all these noises, taking advantage of every moment spent against him. The young man felt a little more at ease now, he looked out the window while keeping his hand on your back, bringing a comforting warmth. Now he prayed buddha not to let Osmatsu or Matsuyo come in and spoil this precious moment. He was happy, he managed to stop your tears, that meant he was a good big brother right ?

that meant he was a good big brother right ?

It's at this moment that both of you heard a meow from the window, drawing your attention to the cat that had invited himself in. The animal was placed on the ledge, surely waiting for his human friend to come and caress him. Almost immediately you stood up, leaving the warmth of your brother to better look at the cat with curious eyes. It was the first time you saw one and a chirp escaped from your mouth as you held out a hand to the feline, glancing at Ichimatsu. The young man blinked for a moment, trying to understand what you were trying to say.

"....It's a cat..." He said a little awkwardly. You did not answer, supporting your gaze on him. He looked at the side for a moment before resuming. ".... W-would you like to go pet him ? ...."

He stood with you always in his arms and approached the feline. He had a gray, white fur. His almond eyes were green and stared at you intensely as you came up to him. Gently, Ichimatsu introduced you to the animal, being careful to hold on tight. He did not want you to rock out of the window or hurt yourself. He knew very well how cats could be vicious, a claw stork could happen very quickly, whether it was involuntary or wanted. This one did not look bad, so he approached you and began to sniff at you curiously. Intimidated by the cat, you dared not stretch your hand towards him and, after a few seconds, you end up squealing by looking at your big brother. This one smiled naturally at seeing your expression, you were so cute!

"... Oh... Look..."

He reached for the animal and let it sniff his hand. The cat finally mewed again and rubbed his head against the palm of the purple matsuno under your wide and curious eyes. Ichimatsu had problems of extreme timidity to the point of being sickly asocial and with a self-confidence almost non-existent but when cats were involved, he was able to open a little. They were the only creatures with whom he was at ease, who would not judge him for what he was, and who accepted him entirely. He slowly brought his face closer to yours and kept a slight smile while caressing the feline.

"... Don’t be scared..."he whispered softly in your ear. Your eyes did not leave the cat while you kept your hands against your chest, not daring to touch the animal. Ichimatsu noticed it and grabbed your hand gently to approach the cat's muzzle, squealing again, you tried to pull it off but the strength of the young man surpassed your abilities. He managed to keep it without hurting you. Instead, he began to whisper gently to your ear.

"...Don’t worry…"

The cat sniffed your little hand and ended up rubbing it as with Ichimatsu. The sensation of the fur of the feline against your palm was very pleasant, it was all fluffy ! Slowly, you stretched out your other hand to touch the animal's ears and began to squeal but this time, with more confidence. A few minutes later, the cat was rubbing you while you were trying to caress him like your big brother did.

".... See... .No worries..." Ichi said with a (very) slight amusement in the voice. Seeing you with a cat was too much for him, he wanted to run away before such cuteness. He wanted to kiss you on the forehead but he was too shy to do it. In truth, he wanted to cover you with cuddles and kisses but just imagining doing it made him nervous. One day he would be able to cuddle you as he wished, but today was a pretty tiring day for our poor young neet.

The laughter that came out of your mouth echoed in the room as the cat started purring loudly, rubbing at Ichimatsu next. It was the hour when he gave food to the street cats, and it seemed like his feline friends were impatient. Generally, when one of them came to him, the others awaited him too. The young man glanced at the clock and had an idea. What if he took you to see the other cats?
After all, he had to keep you and for nothing in the world he would give up one of the only things that made sense of his life. He could wake up Osomatsu to take over his duty but the idea of leaving you with this brother didn't really please him. That idiot could do dangerous things sometimes. Then it was decided !
He was going to take you with him, for better or for worse...

Chapter Text

The weather was good outside despite the cool autumn air. The trees were already wearing their orange foliage as the cold gray sky stretched as far as the eye could see, already offering a slightly lugubrious atmosphere for the upcoming halloween day, which was approaching with great strides.
Of course, a few rays of sunshine brightened the whole scenery, adding a little bit of warm to the town. Ichimatsu was holding his little sister against him, taking care that her cap covered her ears correctly. His mother helped him getting you dressed to go out and told him to be careful so that you don’t catch cold or worse.
You could feel your big brother's fingers brushing your skin as he tucked the fabric over your ears. His skin was soft and warm, at times you could not help but giggle or laugh under his slight stroke that tickled your cheeks. As your brother began to walk, your big (e / c) eyes took advantage of the view offered by the height of Ichimatsu arms, there was so much to look at !

An old man was reading his newspaper, sitting on a bench, while a woman with an ungrateful face came out of a shop, her arms full of shopping bags. Childrens were having fun on their side, picking up the dead leaves and playing with a ball while a trio of young teenagers were telling each other the latest gossip from their college. Just a peaceful day like every other day. Life in town was nice and active, people were busy and Ichi was doing his best to avoid any contact with the crowd. Besides, he had noticed that you were enjoying this little walk and a new smile appeared on his face, illuminating a little his depressive pace. The city was also full of different smells ! You loved when Ichimatsu passed by some restaurants or a food stands, it always smelled good, the spicy and sweet smells blending harmoniously between them, making salivate any hungry soul.

The young man regretted to not ask for a little more money from his mother to be able to enjoy some meals with you.

Meh. Another time surely.

For now on, he were supposed to go feed his cats friends with you, who knows, maybe you could go together everyday after that. If it was you, he didn’t mind. Perhaps you would understand him a little more than the others too; when he dared to look into your eyes and see how innocent and happy they were, he was sure that you’ll be part of the few people who could understand him. A little embarrassed by his thoughts, the young man decided to concentrate on the road, casting his usual empty looks at the crowd from time to time. The cat food he brought was carefully stowed away in his old backpack. He held you firmly against him, remaining gentle in his gestures, as when he was carrying a baby cat. He was so afraid that you’ll fall ! To say that a few hours earlier, he hardly dared touch you and now you both were on a walk together….

It must be because you could already put people at ease, as if your joyous aura contaminated others in the good sense of the term. That's what Ichi also liked about you too, you were so, so different and yet, now you were officially a Matsuno like him and the other. As the young Matsuno swept around with a jaded look, he quickly recognized his favorite alley where his feline friends usually stay. After checking that no one was following or looking, he rushed into the aisle, avoiding garbage and objects corroded by mold. The good smells of the town faded as Ichi sank into this dark place, acid and sour tangles replacing the delicious scents of the streets. They cruelly missed you now, as you raised your face to plunge a sad look into the eyes of your big brother.

"... I ... I know the smell is not..." he tried to say as if he understood what you were trying to tell him. "....Sorry ...."

It's true, what an idiot to take a baby to such place ! He began to regret his “genius” idea and began to curse himself, when a cat pulled out his muzzle recognizing the voice of purple matsu.The animal toppled an empty can when he pulled himself out of his hiding place, catching your attention. Your (e/c) kept following the grey and white feline while your brother noticed pitiful condition of the animal. The cat approached mewing as he began to rub affectionately against the legs of Ichimatsu. You stared at this little cat purring without saying a word, always a little reserved. What was not your surprise when the other cats made their appearance ! There was a small herd around you and the amused sigh Ichimatsu managed to detach your attention from the animals for a second. This time, he seemed so much more at ease, literally plunged into his element. The smile on his lips illuminated his face just as the rays of the sun warmed the gray sky of that october day.

"..... Wait a minute all...." He said to the animals with a light (very light.) laugh. The young man crouched, spreading the cats apart with a soft hand to place you on the ground, near him. He made sure to by put you on a relatively clean side of the floor before grabbing his backpack, sliding it off his shoulders. Some cats would sniff at you while others were rubbing against Ichi, waiting for their daily food. A little panicked to find yourself surrounded by unknown cats, you cast a look of distress at your big brother who was opening food can and offered them to the animals. He didn’t see you, too busy petting and feeding his feline friends.

He was really passionate about anything that touched the animals, although he preferred felines in general. Sometimes, he wondered if he ever dreamed about working in a job related animal. If he did, he didn’t remember or at least, he didn’t want to remember. Of course, no need trying to find a suitable job now, he was a disgusting neet incapable of any social interaction after all. Well, at least he could to take care of you and the cats. It was already a victory for him.

Seeing that he was not looking at you, you found nothing better to do than to utter a shrill cry, not daring to move as cats were rubbing against you. You didn't felt comfortable sitting there without the protection of your brother. You wanted to feel his gentle touch again. His eyes settled on you and quickly understood the situation, obviously you needed a bit of time before being completely at ease among so many cats. Ichimatsu couldn't blame you, in fact, he understood you perfectly.

"... (Y / N) ... don't worry, they're not going to hurt you ..." the young man awkwardly explained, gently taking you in his arms. He placed you on his left thigh holding you with his arm, he pulled out his free arm to the animals and let the felines come rubbing against his hand, just like he did at home earlier.

"... You see ... I ... I'm here ... so ... nothing will happen to you ..."

What was that ?! Why did he talk to you like you could answer him huh ?? His face flushed violently before his stupidity. Who did he think he was, pretending to be the protective big brother when you just arrived yesterday !? He had a hard time admitting it, but he had already become very attached to you. He wanted to be a good big brother to you but once again, he didn’t think he deserved it. But it was stronger than him ! You brought out that protective side of him that only cats had the chance to see. Anyone would want to protect such small thing as yourself !

Ichimatsu cleared his throat, trying to not think too much about it to not look like a complete japanese tomato and with a nice and awkward gesture, took your hand in his so that you could caress the felines. Like when you were at home, you relaxed a bit, feeling a bit more confident being with him and took advantage of the sensation their fur that was lavishing on your skin. Everything was silent, if you didn’t count the purring and meowing of the cats. Soon you glanced at the young man and chirped with amusement, almost forgetting the bad smell around you. Ichimatsu couldn’t hold back a clumsy laugh as you tried to catch one of the kittens by it’s tail. To be fair, the young man was very happy about this whole adoption thing. Now that he was sharing a real moment with his new little sister, he was certain, deep inside him, that you will become an important person in their family. Maybe he was maybe getting a little bit too attached ? Whatever it was, he felt comfortable with you, a little ball of sunshine with a radiant smile just waiting to be loved.

"...."

Gently, you felt Ichi bringing you back against him and awkwardly surrounded his arms around you to shyly hug you. Cuddly as you were, you soon put your head against his coat hugging him back, while the cats finished eating and began to groom or lie down to digest. Some of them were still rubbing against the purple matsu, purring softly. The young man could feel the red rise to his cheeks even more, he was not accustomed to prove his affection this way. He did plainly hugged you after all !
He felt awkward, ashamed but so happy to be able to treat you like a real big brother would do.
Really, this day was more than victorious (and very trying) for him!
Eventually, after staying like this for a few minutes, the fourth son of the matsuno household decided it was time to go home. He laid you down gently to the ground to throw away the empty boxes and pick up his backpack. You watched him as he was cleaning, he looked so big and strong from your perspective ! So different and so sweet ! You loved him already, like all the others. Everyone was nice to you and even if you were a little baby, you could feel it and be aware of it. You had felt something with Ichimatsu; you were not afraid when you were with him.

The young man turned to you, ready to go, and stretched out his arms to take you again.
He lifted you from the ground and, as your face was up to his, you moved your head towards him to kiss him on the corner of his mouth. Surprised by your gesture, he froze completely and did not dare move. A kiss ??! You wanted to kill him with your cuteness or what ?!
Of course, it was a baby kiss, a quick touch of the lips against the skin, no more and no less. But it was already a lot for the poor Ichimatsu ! Nothing to fix his sickly blush ! You’re just too pure and innocent ! Your (e / c) eyes stared at him as you chirped again, leaving him with a mental nerve crisis. What should he do? How to react ?? Why did you look at him like that ?! Not knowing what he was doing, he finally made your gesture by a quick (very fast!) kiss on the forehead. That's it. He wanted to die. He never, NEVER kissed anyone before, why did it fall on him ?! Even if it wasn’t the lovey-dovey kind of kiss, he wasn’t used to this type of affection, even from a baby !
Not that he didn’t liked your gesture, actually he was truly touched by your action ! But ... he really did not expected it ! He finally regained little bit of self control and decided to finally get going.

“.....L…..let’s go home…..(Y/N)....”
