Kassumi6 Well I was thinking that the guy Dante scared off finds out that Leo and his family do not know what Dante does so he decides to make a little announcement that gives it away. Sort of like a cheers to Dante for becoming the oyabun of the head gang clan.

“Solitude is strength; to depend on the presence of the crowd is weakness. The man who needs a mob to nerve him is much more alone than he imagines.”
Women and men alike, all adorning costumes of different kinds each gave Dante a nod or light bow of respect as he passed, even if he hadn't looked their way. As he walked through with Leo, his glanced in his direction a few times and noticed the bit of red that peeked out from under his mask. It could have been from anything, but he had hoped it was because he had succeeded in flustering the other male. The idea of it though, was somehow strange. Why would he want to see the embarrassed face of another man to see if he was as cute as he thought with tinted cheeks? Was it really so strange for him to want that?
The finally reached the stairs and as he walked up, the steps, one of his men set a chair for Leo next to his. With the same smirk, Dante slowed his stride to match it with Leonardo's so that they were walking next to each other. "You agree to be held hostage? I can only hope that you aren't as willing to tag along if someone were to really try snatching you up."
After quietly shutting his door, Dante turned back to Leo and walked over to his bed, sitting next to him as he set the container down. Returning to English, he picked up more wrapping bandages and began to carefully wrapped the wounds that were sustained from the kicks. x x x

xxLeonardo hung his head at Dante’s words. Well, now he felt like he started to dig himself a hole he couldn’t get out of. He agreed to stay near Dante and now the man chose to turn things on him? Leonardo knew the snowy haired male must only be joking to tease the blonde, but that didn’t make him feel any better. How and why was he even blushing? The male usually had a handle on such things and rarely ever blushed unless he was around people he trusted and that were close to him. Dante had saved his life and seemed to be doing his utmost to keep him safe, so maybe without realizing it Leonardo had started to trust the man that was still a stranger to him. How did that even happen? Leonardo should have known or felt that he trusted the male, but something still felt off. Maybe it was because he felt like he was being lied to or sheltered from whatever truth surrounded this event he was at. Who doesn’t have sleeves on at a business gathering? Why did Dante have to show off his bare arms and some of his back? And why did the guy have so many tattoos? Not that Leonardo could really complain, he liked them oddly enough, but it seemed odd somehow.
xx“You know what I meant.” The blonde muttered as he kept his eyes focused on the floor. He could feel the eyes of some people staring at him or them both. Was it because they were holding hands, because Leonardo was probably as red at a cherry, or because he was walking with Dante, who really seemed to be the center of attention for the night? It didn’t really matter at that point. Once they got to the chairs Leonardo looked around for who was to sit in the other chair before the person that brought the chair pointed at Leonardo then the chair. The chair was for him. Leonardo just stood there. Unknown to the two, Fukuda had wondered around only to bump into Leonardo’s parents. They started to talk as the two sipped at their water.

tiny14xx That sounds good. Do you want that to happen after Dante gets his tattoo?

“Solitude is strength; to depend on the presence of the crowd is weakness. The man who needs a mob to nerve him is much more alone than he imagines.”
After sitting down in his chair, dante turned to Leonardo and smiled sweetly. The other had made it pretty obvious that he had been rather uncomfortable the entire time he had been there. Motioning towards the chair, Dante gave a warm smile. "Won't you have a seat with me friend? I would feel more at ease if you weren't standing so awkwardly." His attention turned to a man that walked over to him and said something quietly near his ear. Dante grimaced but nod with a sigh as he stood and turned to Leo. "Never mind I suppose, it would seem that the main event is to be shown now. I cannot sit with you, but if you could, please take a seat so I know where to find you when it is over." With that being his last words, Dante followed the men down the stairs and moved to the middle of the room where the crowd parted to make a large circle. A man in a suit set down a chair as another brought over a case atop a small table that held ink containers with many colors. As Dante sat in the chair and leaned back, his father stood nearby with a mic. "Today we welcome the clan heir with his new markings, labeling him as the new oyabun. It has been fun but I am afraid my time is up and like a phoenix, the new leader shall be born from my ashes. I wish you all to welcome him as you have welcomed me in the past and I thank you for continuing a long term bond."
His father raises his glass as his mother joins his side and raises hers. Dante on the other hand, could only close his eyes and side as everyone lifted their glasses as well. "To Dante and to new beginnings!" The crowd chant "To Dante" before some drank their beverages or tapped their glasses against another's. "This is ridiculous..." The tattoo gun is removed from the case and a man placed a tattoo lining over Dante's chest.
After quietly shutting his door, Dante turned back to Leo and walked over to his bed, sitting next to him as he set the container down. Returning to English, he picked up more wrapping bandages and began to carefully wrapped the wounds that were sustained from the kicks. x x x

xxLeonardo simply nodded. “Sure.” The blonde mumbled as he walked over to the chair and was about to take a seat when Dante stood up and turned to him to inform him that the main event was about to happen. “Okay…?” Leonardo said as he watched the other male walk off. The blonde sat down in the chair that had been set out for him. He glanced around at all the people within the room before his eyes settled on Dante when he sat down in chair in the middle of the crowd. Blue eyes went to Dante’s father as he spoke. As the man gave his toast, confusion flooded Leonardo’s face behind his mask. “Oyabun?” He mumbled to himself as he wracked his brain for the meaning of the word. He couldn’t remember what the word meant, but it soon left his mind as he watched the white haired male get a brand new tattoo on his chest.
It felt like it took forever for the lining of the tattoo to be finished while Leonardo watched in utter confusion. What kind of party was this? His eyes scanned the crowd for his parents and relief washed over him when he finally spotted them with drinks in hand. His eyes narrowed at the two; those better have been a nonalcoholic drinks. His eyes flickered back to Dante to watch the tattooing again. Again, it felt like it took forever for the tattoo to be finished and it did take time. Once finished, everyone cheers and toasted to Dante again. Leonardo noticed his parents join in as well and he took the opportunity to see if he could figure out what they were drinking. It looked like punch almost, but he couldn’t be sure.
Fukuda made his way through the crowd of people to where Dante’s father was with the mic after Dante moved from his seat in the middle of the crowd. He cleared his throat to gain the attention of everyone in the room before he smiled. “I’d like congratulate and welcome Dante into the position of oyanbun, or mafia leader.” Blue eyes widened behind their mask as Leonardo suddenly felt the urge to stand up, find his parents, and leave. “It’s always nice to see son follow in their father’s footprints as is family tradition. To Dante, may you hold this position as long as your father.” Fukuda raised his glass along with everyone else as glasses clinked and people drank. A smug smirk was placed on the male’s face as he looked from Dante to Leonardo. The blonde stood up and quickly walked into the crowd in search of his parents while Fukuda handed off the mic as he went into the crowd to grab Leonardo before Dante could have the chance if the white haired male went after the blonde.
“We need to leave.” Leonardo announced to his parents who looked a little confused. They hadn’t caught what Fukuda said as they had been talking to a couple. “Excuse us.” Fiona smiled at the couple before the two turned to look at their son. “Why? We can leave now.” She looked at her son in mild concern. “These people aren’t who they say they are; they’re bad. We need to leave before something happens.” His parents looked at each other before they laughed at their son. “Leo, you’re probably just tired. Go sit down, get some fresh air, and relax. Maybe the tattooing upset you.” Lawrence said only for their son to become annoyed before the two went back to their previous conversations. The blonde quickly stormed away from them and searched around until he went a familiar direction that lead out to the garden. He closed the door behind him and took a deep breath before he sighed. He pulled he mask off as he walked to the small bridge that was over the water. He placed his arms on the railing of the bridge and raised his left hand to its elbow so he could rest his head in his hand while his right hand held the mask. His head hurt and he was trying to calm down from the flash of panic.

tiny14xx Sorry it's so amazingly late! And I mean "amazingly" in a bad, sarcastic way. Fukuda's speech wasn't long, but hopefully it did the job well enough.

xxBlue eyes opened and glanced at the pale haired male that walked towards Leonardo while he spoke. The blonde only sighed and turned his head so his eyes stared down at the water below while Dante continued to speak. Leonardo became cold and distant once again, but it was only due to his being upset with the other male. “Maybe if they did something unforgivable.” The male mumbled in response to what was likely meant to be a rhetorical question. With another sigh, Leonardo finally looked at Dante. “Why didn’t you just tell me? You were so reluctant to let my family come then you just gave in. If you had explained to me why you didn’t want us to come I would have understood. I know you won’t hurt me or my parents, but what about the other people inside? What about the people that you don’t have any real control over? The guy that beat me? My parents don’t want to leave; they’re making friends with people that could be dangerous.” His tone wasn’t calm anymore; it was filled with irritation and sounded almost bitter. Light blue eyes were frozen over and gave Dante a glare that showed how upset he was. He understood the male hadn’t lied to him so he didn’t feel entirely betrayed, but he still wasn’t happy. “You should have told me, Dante.”
xxLeonardo stared back down at the water. He couldn’t leave without his parents, but he was reluctant to go back inside the house now. Fukuda would likely want to find him again and he knew it. The most Leonardo could hope for was that whomever his parents befriended, they wouldn’t cause them any harm. It was the last thing they needed to put up with and they wouldn’t be in Japan for very long. He started to relax when he assumed his parents would tell people that if they asked and that maybe that would be enough for people to back away from trying anything with people that traveled around so much. Although he didn’t want to go back inside, Leonardo knew he couldn’t stay outside by himself. After the encounter with Fukuda, the blonde knew he had to stay near someone if such things would continue. Leonardo allowed his free hand to fall to his side for a moment before his finger wrapped around Dante’s hand. “I’m still your hostage for the night; willingly, of course.” Leonardo said, his voice sounding calmer and less bitter.

“Solitude is strength; to depend on the presence of the crowd is weakness. The man who needs a mob to nerve him is much more alone than he imagines.”
Dante couldn't deny Leo's accusations, nor could he say he didn't deserve he scolding he was currently getting from him. All he could really do was let the other vent and take the full bunt of his anger. He knows that he should have told Leonardo the truth, but he also knew that because he was ashamed of what his family represented, it was not something he liked to share. He was prepared to be hit or for Leo to storm away in anger but instead, he felt something touch his hand and listened to his words. His crystal blue eyes turned to him and he smiled lightly as his hands clasped Leo's in return. "I know I should have told you, but you can't say it is something that I can just tell you about lightly. I didn't want to scare you nor did I want you to be under the impression that we were just a bunch of thugs. There are a few people in there that are up to no good, but there are also many people in there that despite their appearance, aren't so bad. Leonardo, I wouldn't have let your family come if it endangered you in any way." Gently, he pulled Leo closer and wrapped his arms around him in a hug. "My home always has been and always will be a safe and hospitable place."
After quietly shutting his door, Dante turned back to Leo and walked over to his bed, sitting next to him as he set the container down. Returning to English, he picked up more wrapping bandages and began to carefully wrapped the wounds that were sustained from the kicks. x x x
