A/N (read!!!!):
Finally! Okay, I had lots of things to do last, and this week, so I couldn't write the third chapter out earlier. Now that it's up, you can read it ^_^.Last time I looked, the votes were: * checks post-it, again, and clears throat *… Rukato: 4, and Leeki: 11. This is what was there when I checked it out (the people who didn't vote didn't count for a pair), on 1-12-2002. So, the couple/pairing's decided. It's gonna be… * drum roll, please *… Leeki!!! * Leeki fans cheer. Rukato fans boo, and throw VERY hard objects at me for supporting Leeki *. Kudos to all you people out there that voted ^_^! Reviewers, tell me if this was a good decision by reviewing or emailing me at sweetgurr@yahoo.com. Some authors told me to use Leeki because I wanted to use that coupling in the first place. Well, Leeki fans this is your lucky story!! But sorry, Rukato fans…I'm sorry, but I rely on the votes, so it could be fair.

By the time Ruki and Kai got home, it was almost 9:00 PM. Kai shook Ruki awake, again, and she yawned. Ruki headed straight to her room and shut the door. She took a long shower, and dressed in pajamas. Remembering her promise to Kai, she walked over to his room and knocked on the door.
"It's open," Kai replied to Ruki.
Ruki opened the door and saw Kai reading a book. She said, "Kai…I want to talk to you about something."
"Is this about your former life before you ran away from home?"
Shocked, Ruki asked, "How did you know that I-"
"That you ran away?" Ruki nodded her head. "Because the fact that it's part of my job, as a psychologist, to learn about my clients' life, I know many things. Also, you mentioned earlier about your family a lot. Of course that led hints to thinking that you ran away."
"Oh, okay. So…since you know people with problems similar to mine," Ruki sat on the blue, padded desk chair. "There's really nothing to tell about"
"Oh? And why did you sit down?" Kai asked grinning.
'Why is he grinning?' Ruki asked herself. She said, "I'm tired from the walk around the mall. I-"
All of sudden, the doorbell rang. Kai stood up from his bed and said, "Let's discuss this issue tomorrow, Ruki."
Ruki didn't respond. Instead she followed Kai out the bedroom and walked to her room to sleep. As soon as Ruki pulled the covers up to her neck, something clicked in her head. 'Aw! I forgot to ask him about the laptop…never mind. I'll ask him tomorrow.' After a few minutes, Ruki fell asleep.
Meanwhile, at the door, Kai checked who was ringing his doorbell at that hour. He was surprised who was at his doorstep. "Takato!" Kai exclaimed. "What are you doing here?"
"Can we go in?" asked Jenrya (who was standing behind Takato).
"Come in. Oh, yeah," Kai said, closing the door behind him. He smacked his forehead and said, "I forgot to write down your visit that was scheduled today!"
Takato sighed loudly, and said, "How many times have you done that, Kai? Ten, twenty times?"
"Done what?" Jen asked.
"Forget to write down when Takato goes over my place for advice, or to visit," Kai replied.
"Oh," Jen said slowly. Then, he heard someone groan in one of the guestrooms. He asked Kai, "Who's in the guestroom?"
Kai stuttered, "Oh-uh-um-just a client."
Takato raised his eyebrow suspiciously at Kai's blush, but Jen said sternly, "Kai, it's past ten, and Takato and me need a place to sleep. If your client's in the guestroom, then-"
"There're four guestrooms in this condo. Both of you could sleep in the same room, if you'd like-"
"Kai!" Takato almost yelled. "We're not-well, at least I'm not- gay. I just brought Jen because I thought you could help him get over this person…Um, and I wanted advice on something."
"Oh. Man! It's been a long time since you last visited me. I think it was about a year ago…" Kai trailed off, remembering the last time Takato visited him. (A/N: No, it's not a spoiler 'bout the movie)
*Flashback*
Takato walked into his cousin's room. It was summer, and Takato had a problem. Takato depended on Kai because he always gave him advice. Kai always wanted to be a psychologist or counselor, and help people with any of their problems, since he was seven years old.
Kai looked up from his book and at his cousin's face. He asked, "Need advice?"
This time, Takato's problem wasn't minor. It was huge. Takato fumbled with his goggles and mumbled, "Yeah." Then he explained the whole thing about getting his girlfriend, Juri pregnant.
Through the whole story, Kai listened intently. When Takato was finished, Kai asked, "So, Takato…what is your problem with Juri? I'm not suggesting anything, but are you thinking about breaking up with her because you might not be able to handle the responsibility of taking care of a child?"
Takato thought for a second. Then he said, "I think it's the latter. I mean, it was hard taking care of Guilmon…when he was still on earth…." Takato trailed off.
"So," Kai started. "If you think that you can't take the responsibility of taking care of a child, what do you plan on doing? Also, tell me more about your girlfriend, Juri."
Takato told Kai about Juri, how she acted a little crazy, how she looked, and how she acted towards him.
Once again, Kai listened carefully. Takato finished off his description, and then started to cry. In between sobs, he said, "I love her, bu-but I don't want to take care of her- I mean our ba-baby…She deserves a more responsible boyfriend than me." Kai handed a tissue box to Takato. Takato blew his nose very loud, and said, "Thanks, Kai. But what do I do?"
Kai looked at his younger cousin with sympathy. Then, he said slowly, "My advice may not help, but I'm only suggesting that you should tell Juri how you feel about the pregnancy. If she gets moody, you should understand that this might be the result of her being pregnant. One more thing, Takato, try to keep an eye out on her because she could commit suicide if you tell her your feelings about the baby. Then again, she may accept your emotions.
"Okay," Takato turned around to leave Kai's room. "Oh, and thanks again for the advice, Kai. Ja mata ne!"
*End of flashback*
Kai blinked two times then asked, "So, Takato, how's Juri?"
Takato's smile faded. Jen said, "How about if we go to sleep now, Kai?"
Kai understood that something bad must have happened, so he said, "Follow me. The rooms are right next to the kitchen. Oh, and by the way, try not to make too much noise unpacking. My client's sleeping."
Takato whispered to Jen behind Kai's back, "Did he say 'clients', as in more than one client?"
Jen replied in a whisper, "I think he meant that his client is sleeping. My theory is that there's only one person sleeping in the guestroom."
Takato nodded and walked into the guestroom that Kai led them to. Jen walked into the other guestroom next to Takato's. Soon, Kai, Takato, Ruki, and Jen were asleep, unexpected of what was to happen the next morning…
A/N:
Yay! A cliffhanger! So, review now, and tell me what you think might happen in the next chapter. I know this chapter was VERY short, but hey, I had to type/post this up soon, or else the fans of this ficcie would disappear. Sorry, peoples, I don't accept anymore votes 'cause it's already decided. To be fair, I'm making a Rukato ficcie. But, the rating might be off limits to 'lil kids. In other words, it's gonna be either NC17, or R. REVIEW NOW! (Naw, only if you want to, 'cause I'm forcin' nobody) Oh, and "Ja mata ne" means "see ya later" in Japanese.~Rukimakino
