Hey guys, it's Mitsu here! Sorry for the long update. I haven't been on for ages.

Well here is the fourth chapter and I'll try to update soon!

Please R & R!

Rima's POV

I hear a growl as I look up at the ceiling. I feel something under my head and find some straw under my whole body. A werewolf is looking over me. I rub my eyes and sit up. I'm sleeping on straw, a quilt covering me and my favourite pillow beside me. The werewolf transforms into a human. Nagihiko.

"Good morning, Rima." He says.

I stand up and see the kitchen filled with meat and dead wolves. Small wolves, birds, fish and chickens. I look up at Nagihiko and he smiles.

"Did you go hunting last night?" I ask as I see bits of snow inside the house and the snow falling outside.

He quietly nods and sets a cup of a warm liquid on the table I sit myself on. I drink and feel the heat coming through the cup into my body. Hot chocolate.

"Where did you find this?" I ask, "Actually… All of this."

"I just went to the farm and sold some meat, they gave me money and I bought some small things. Big things come later." He says, "I also cleaned up a bit."

"But… I thought you said-"

"I know I said my body temperature can't handle it but it's only the start I can handle. It's when it gets to mid-Winter that I can't stand even a second out there." He says.

I dress up and look at the new clean clock that says 7:45am. Shoot! Yaya and I were supposed to be walking by now! I quickly get dressed and get ready. I open the door and remember it being squeakier and unmovable before. Nagihiko tells me he oiled the door and cleaned it up. I kiss him on the cheek and go outside.

"Good morning, Rima-tan! You're slower than usual." She says, "What happened last night? You told me to go hunting without you so I went hunting with Cressida and Cressila! The door was closed and the blinds were down when I came back."

"Uhh… Well, I was going to bed early! That's right! So I blocked out the light from outside." I rub my neck, "Sorry to keep you waiting. I hope you weren't waiting long."

I turn my head to the forest and make out a faint figure of a werewolf, watching me. It had to be Nagihiko. No-one has those same hazel eyes that shine in the sun and stare at you in the night.

"What's wrong, Rima-tan?" Yaya asks as she turns her head around.

"Nothing." I hear the clock tower bells chime, "Shoot! We're late for school!"

As we rush into the Royal Garden, panting, everyone is there but Nagihiko. It figures.

"Nagi's not here yet?" Yaya asks as she looks at me.

"Maybe he's sick." I say, trying to make them think he's absent.

"Or maybe, he got kidnapped!" Amu says, wide-eyed.

"I don't think so Hinamori-san. I think Mashiro-san is right. Maybe Fujisaki-kun is absent today. Let's go onto the meeting, shall we?" Tadase says.

Thank goodness. For the rest of the day, nobody mentions Nagihiko. The bell rings for 3:00 and I walk home with Yaya. I wave goodbye and look up at my house. Is this… my house…? I open the door and see Nadeshiko cleaning up the house.

"Good to see you, Rima." She says in her female voice.

"Na-Nagihiko…" I say as I try to find my bed, "Where's my mattress?"

"Upstairs. Your room is your choice." She smiles.

As I walk up the stairs I look at the house, all cleaned up and the floors shining clean. When you walk into the room on the right, there's a window on the left, a single bed and a nightstand with a lamp next to the bed. A desk with an office chair is set on the right of the room.

The room on the left of the stairs is the same as the right one. A two storey house… Yaya will think I just renovated or something. A lot. I sure hope Nagihiko doesn't get the idea of renovating all of the houses in the village. Nobody cares about this place anymore.

"Rima, may I call you Rima-chan?" Nadeshiko calls from below.

"Umm… Okay! I hope you're not planning on renovating all of the houses." I say as I walk down the stairs.

"You read my mind." Nadeshiko says as she turns off the vacuum, "You can hunt and I'll renovate and clean."

"Why? It's just an Abandoned Village." I say.

"I want people to be happy. I want people to live in this other side of the town." She says as she packs away the vacuum cleaner.

A sandwich is waiting for me on the table and I gobble it down quickly. Looking at how much meat there is… I'm thinking Nagihiko has enough for at least a week. Although I should be worrying about myself as well. Nagihiko has enough but I'm the one who's broke and I'm the one who has to hunt for him later in the month. Plus there's homework on the other side…

Oh, screw it all! Screw homework! Just forget about homework and pretend it was never there. I sigh. Time to worry about food. I could eat meat if I wanted to but if I do that, it'll leave less for me and Nagihiko to survive on.

Well, hunting more is better than earning a part time job in Elementary. There. Problem solved. Maybe I should skip school just like Nagihiko. It's not like I have parents or anything. And I highly doubt the school has my contacts. Yaya and I make up fake contacts and addresses anyway.

"Rima-chan! What would you like for dinner?" Nadeshiko asks from downstairs.

I come down stairs and sit down on the table.

"Well, I was thinking we could share the meat and I could hunt more to supply enough for both of us." I say.

"I think I have a better idea. You won't live on just meat." Nadeshiko says as she hands me a credit card.

"W-Where'd you get this from…?" I stare at the card with his details on it.

"It's mine. That's how you're going to get the ingredients." She says.

"Ingredients? Then that means…"

"I'm the cook here, I need ingredients don't I?" she smiles.

"In that case, I'll buy all of our needs now." I say, "I'm going!"

"Buy what you want for dinner as well!" Nadeshiko shouts.

I smile. Maybe this plan will work out better than I thought.

"Sir, we have recent reports that Mashiro Rima has been skipping her hunting schedules." A servant says.

"Bring her to me tomorrow. That's an order." A brown haired man says.

"Yes, Boss." The servant walks out the door.

DUN DUN DUN!

;_; it was so short this time... I'll try to make the chapters longer too. Thanks for reviewing!
