"There is something in this world which no one has ever seen. It is soft and sweet. If it is spotted, I'm sure everyone will want to have it, which is why no one has ever seen it."
After headbutting Ryuuji, Taiga returned the proposal and whispered "I love you too". They walked out of the classroom holding hands; until Ryuuji picked her up. Taiga responded with a squeal and a short punch to the head. Her face had turned beetroot red. But Ryuuji Just laughed it off and claimed, "You're just the same". Taiga was flustered. She questioned "Why would you do that?" Ryuuji simply said "I love you". Taiga sighed and relaxed her head into Ryuuji's shoulder. When they reached the bottom of the stairs, the whole class was waiting. Ryuuji and Taiga both went bright red. The classmates all started taking pictures of the two. Ryuuji kept on holding Taiga, some girls in the crowd giggled and cheered. Ami looked annoyed, but when noticed by Yusaku, she quickly faked a smile. Yusaku walked over to her side and whilst smiling consulted her grimace. She responded accordingly with an explanation into how she was warning Ryuuji that someone would get hurt, but that she found it funny how it was her who got hurt in the end. Yusaku whispered "You aren't the only one" and gestured towards Minori. She smiled and said, "I suppose your right".
A little later that day Taiga went home with Ryuuji, and had dinner at his (like usual). What Ryuuji didn't know however, was that Taiga hadn't brought anything to sleep on. But had packed a full bag of clothes and other necessities. Ryuuji expected her to be going back to live in her house. He was wrong. Taiga had forged her dads signature, so she could sell the house. She donated the money she had got to the orphans. Taiga exclaimed flirtatiously "You said we were family, didn't you?" with a wink and giggle at the end. Ryuuji was shocked, he hadn't expected Taiga to be this forward. But he concealed his embarrassment and murmured "But you haven't brought anything to sleep on". To which Taiga responded by blurting out "I have you silly". They both awkwardly hid their embarrassment and continued. "Why did you go?" Ryuuji enquired. Taiga passed it off. But then she said, "I had to fight my demons, so we can get married". Ryuuji stared her in the eyes, then without hesitation he grabbed the back of her neck and kissed her. Taiga blushed, but carried on the kiss.
When both were tired, they decided to go to bed. Yassuko was working late that night. So she wouldn't disturb the two. But Taiga had still wanted to see her. They Climbed into bed, rustling against one another. It was awkward at first, both of them were blushing. But when they had settled in, Taiga complained "I'm freezing". Ryuuji pulled her closer. Unlike usual she didn't resist, and the two snuggled until they fell asleep. The next morning Taiga awoke alone, but she could smell breakfast so she wasn't worried. When she finally got up; Ryuuji had already prepared the table, and had packed her stuff away in the drawers. Taiga snuck behind him, then she threw herself at him. He turned around to see Taiga wrapped around him. They sat down to eat, they had a busy day ahead, so they had a large breakfast. Yassuko was still sleeping after her long shift, so Ryuuji had left her a note telling her to get breakfast out of the fridge.
Taiga and Ryuuji were going to meet up with Ami, Minorin and Yusaku; but Minorin had training so she was going to meet up later that day. To start with they split up, Ami with Taiga and Ryuuji with Yusaku. The girls went shopping for clothes and swimwear whereas the boys went for lunch. While relaxing the Ryuuji was the first to suggest an idea. "Why don't we surprise the girls?". Yusaku agreed and off they went. They met up with the girls and presented their gifts, Yusaku had bought Ami a bracelet with silver charms on it. Ami acted cool and tried to brush it off, but the rest of the day she wouldn't take her eyes off Yusaku. Ryuuji on the other hand had told Taiga he would wait till later to give her his gift.
