Minto got up and stretched she looked at the man sleeping next to her. 'He's so peaceful when he's asleep,' She thought looking down on the sleeping Kishu. His hair was out of their wraps and so it flew free around his face and pillow, his face a serine and calm, and a small smile was on his lips. 'That's why I love you so much, you're sweet, kind, and caring,' She smiled and then remembered her mission of why she was up so early. She got up took a shower and got dressed in a knee length navy skirt, a light blue spaghetti strap shirt with a medium turquoise bird on it, knee-high white socks, and black mary-janes. 'Okay, I need to make signs for the rooms and then I need to make lunch because there are a lot of rooms in this place,' She thought and went down into the dinning room where the night before she had put a large stack of papers and a handful of markers and a lot of tape so she could at least start figuring out which room was which.

Meanwhile

Ichigo got up and put on a light colored jean skirt that went an inch above her knee, the area her legs were under the skirt was bleached even lighter, and the edge looked raggedy and worn. Her shirt was a deep red shirt that said, "You can't touch this. 'Cause it's already been claimed," and she also put on a pair of pink kitty slippers. She went downstairs to start making breakfast and found Keiichiro already there making pancakes and sausage. "Morning, Keiichiro-chan!" Ichigo said perkily. "Oh, good morning, Ichigo-chan," Keiichiro said looking up from his pancakes. "So, what did you and Zakuro decide on for your room decoration?" Ichigo asked as she nibbled on an apple. "Well we like cherry wood floors, very nice, and well color wise for the walls we're in a dead lock, I want a natural color, but she wants something dark and gloomy," Keiichiro answered. "What about a nice medium brown? It's a natural color and it's kinda dark, but not, like, gothic dark," Ichigo said. "Hm... That sounds nice, and with the cherry wood floors that would look nice," Keiichiro said. "Actually, the shade I'm thinking about looks better with an even darker colored wood. Also with brown you can use blues, and greens, and such, oh and leather, for some of your furniture," Ichigo said.

"Sounds nice," Zakuro said walking in, in her purple rose bathrobe, "I like it. Thanks, Ichigo. So what did you and Ryou agree on?" "Well, we agreed on a light wood floor, a pastel orange, and a blue sky painted on the ceiling," Ichigo answered. "Sounds lovely," Zakuro answered. "Luckily Pudding and Tart don't have to agree, they decorate their rooms anyway they want," Ichigo said, "It took us three hours to come up with what we did!" "Hey, that's okay, we didn't agree till this morning!" Keiichiro said with a large smile. "What's for breakfast?" Asked a groggy Ryou. They all laughed and sat down to breakfast.

With Lettuce and Pai...

Lettuce rose and reached for her beside table with her glasses on them. She picked them up and put them on while fumbling around with her feet trying to find her lime green slippers. "Pai, get up, it's 8:30, we need to go to the cafe and tell everyone what we're doing for our room at the new house," Lettuce whispered in Pai's ear while shaking his shoulder lightly. "Mmm..." Was all she got out of him. She kissed his cheek and he shout up, "I knew that would work like it does every morning," She laughed and shuffled out of bed to the bathroom to wash her face and hands so she could make some breakfast in their tiny kitchen. Pai sat up propped up against his pillow and smiled, "Lettuce, you should break down and get an alarm clock, this isn't working, we always get up later than we're supposed to," Lettuce frowned. "But they're so loud and hard to shut off when I can't find my glasses," She said turning on a burner and putting a kettle of water on top while sticking two pieces of bread in the toaster.

"If you put it on my side I can turn it off," He said standing up and walking over to the fridge and pulling out the OJ. Lettuce couldn't help put laugh, "Pai you need to start wearing more than your boxers to bed! You're standing in front of the window and women are fainting!" Pai's eyes grew as he ran to the bathroom to get his robe, "Sorry Lettuce," He said while tying the cord on his slate colored robe. "Oh I don't mind how you look, I think you look hot that way, it's all the ladies fainting on the street I'm worried about," She said and they both laughed.

Back at the Cafe...

Pudding had gotten up and was in her usual performing uniform and had come downstairs. "So Pudding, what are you going to make your room look like?" Ichigo asked. "A jungle!" She shouted as Tart came down the stairs. "How about you Tart?" Zakuro asked. "Brown walls, green carpet, reddish-brown furniture," He answered while stealing a piece of sausage off of Ryou's plate almost losing a finger in the process. "HEY! THAT WAS MINE!" Ryou shouted. Ichigo clamped her hand over his mouth, "You've had enough go take a shower, we've got to get to the house by 10, it's a quarter till nine, and it takes half an hour to get there," Ichigo said and pushed him out of the kitchen. By this time Zakuro had gotten dressed in a black jean skirt like Ichigo's and a purple version of her shirt, Tart was in his usual attire and Keiichiro was wearing a simple pair of tan slacks and a t-shirt that was light blue. "As soon as Ryou pulls himself out of the shower we'll hop a train to the house," Zakuro said and reclined in a chair next to Ichigo who was sitting on a couch drinking a cup of tea. "Can you believe it's been five months since we all got engaged, 'cept Pudding and Tart?" Asked Ichigo staring at her swelling belly. "No I can't, I can't believe that, the ditzy Ichigo, I injected is now my fiancée and is going to have my child in March," Ryou said sneaking up on her and kissing her forehead.

"It is your fault you know!" She said in between giggles. "How is it my fault?" He asked looking innocent. "You made me fall in love with you!" She said and threw her arms around his neck. "No I believe you made me fall in love with you!" He said smiling. "Can you two drop it? We're going to be late," Tart, said. "Yeah, nice job, Tart! You interrupted a very nice moment! MIDGET!" Ichigo shouted.

"HAG!"

"MIDGET!"

"HAG!"

"BRAT!"

"SLUT!"

"BABY!"

"Humph..." Tart said. Ichigo smiled and they all walked to the train station.

With Lettuce...

"I'm glad we live a few minutes walk from the house," Lettuce said twirling around in a circle making her forest green scarf, tan peasant skirt, and green jacket along with her braid go flying about her. "Yeah me too since I burnt the bacon..." Pai said with a sweat drop on the side of his head. "Pai it's not a big deal," Lettuce said clamping herself to his arm as they walked down the road. "Look we're here already," She said and pointed to a large white mansion with 20 windows, and six columns on the front porch that shielded a large oak door from the elements. "Wow, we're going to live, in there?" Pai asked with large eyes and cocked eyebrows. "To put it simply, yes," Lettuce said as she pulled him towards the path up to the door. She pushed the doorbell and soon they both saw movement coming from the kitchen. "Huh? Oh Lettuce, Pai, you're early," Kishu said letting them into the large entryway. "Where's Minto?" Lettuce asked. "She's taping room names to their doors," Kishu said as he walked back into the kitchen and they followed, "So you know which ones you're going to decorate. And you should start thinking about tile colors each bedroom has a bathroom," He finished and put a dish into the dishwasher.

"We decided on a nice blue-gray colored carpet and aqua walls, I suppose we can just change the carpet color to tile color for the floor of the bathroom," Lettuce said and leaned up against the wall. "Sounds nice, we've got blue carpet and forest green walls, then we switched it around for the bathroom," Minto said coming in and embracing Lettuce. "So which one's our room?" Lettuce asked. "Let's see well all the bedrooms are on the third floor and yours is the one on the left side diagonal from ours," Minto said. "Thanks," Lettuce said and she and Pai went to go find their room.

Soon the whole group had arrived seen the entire house and were making plans over turkey sandwiches.

"Soo, Ichigo, what's the baby? Boy? Girl?" Minto asked casually. "Girl," Ichigo said placing her cup back on the counter top. "Name?" Minto asked again. "Momo," Ichigo answered. "Peach?" Lettuce asked. Ichigo nodded, "But it wasn't my idea, I liked Natsu," Ryou sweat dropped. "I promise that can be her middle name, I made a promise to my mother, she always liked that name," Lettuce sighed, "After all these years you're keeping a promise to your mother? How sweet, good for you Ryou," Pudding nodded.

"Zakuro I know for a fact you and Keiichiro are planning to start a family soon so you got girls names?" Ichigo said and Keiichiro and Zakuro turned bright red but Zakuro answered. "Yes, I like Kaki, and Keiichiro likes Ichijiku," Zakuro said. "Permission and Fig, nice," Kish said. "Mint what about you and Kishu?" Kish's eyes grew and he looked away. "Actually we are trying... and I'm kinda waiting for results," Minto said. Lettuce and Ichigo squeeled, "YAY!!! GO MINTO!" Ryou and Pai patted Kishu on the back and smirked. "Sooo names!!!" Pudding shouted suddenly. "Suika," Minto said simply. "You want to name our baby Suika?" Kishu asked. "Yes why?" Asked Minto, "And furthermore we don't know if I'm pregnant yet!" "I love that name! I was going to suggest it," Kishu said, and took a deep breath, "And I was in our bathroom about ten minutes ago and it's blue," Minto fainted. "What's blue?" Asked Pudding. "She's pregnant," Kishu stated.

"Good for you," Ichigo said and smiled. "I know you all aren't going to ask me but I like the name Anzu," Pudding said. "That's a nice name Pudding," Lettuce said while trying to revive Minto. "Okay now that Minto's awake anyone else want to say anything?" Lettuce and Zakuro coughed. "Um, Zakuro is pregnant with twins, and I'm pregnant," Lettuce said. "WHAT!" Pai and Keiichiro shouted. "Happy Birthday Pai," Lettuce said with a small smile. "Oh boy," Pai said and sat down. "It's a good thing that Pudding isn't pregnant," Ichigo said.

"Yup!" Pudding shouted.
