Thanks for the reviews^^ this chapter will be entirely in english... Sorry bout the Japanese overload.
As the night crept into the day, Minato slowly awoke to the following...
Miya, cradleing his head above him, Matsu and Kazehana inside his arms, Musubi laying in between his legs and the twins hugging them and finally, Uzume taking the vacant spot on his chest...
He was trapped until they got up. "Thank god I don't have work today..." he whispered as silent as he possibly could to himself. As he lay there under many 'mounds' of softness he looked back at his time before getting this building. He and Uzume had just left the realtors office with the deed.
"From now on, we can live as we want!" he exclaimed in a triumphant voice. "Um, I have a suggestion for tilling the extra rooms." Uzume added. "What's the plan my mystic girl of infinite beauty?" he asked. "We can rent them out to others, thetwaywe can fill the rooms and earn some extra money." she said a bit nervously. He looked at her with a reassuring gaze, "Thats a splendid idea Usume-san." he responded by hiving her a hug. "We'll have to check out every tenant before they move in. I want it to be a save and benevolent complex." he added. She nodded in agreement. In the following weeks they posted ads for rent in thier new home. and of the fifty that came to see the building, most of them passed on the offer. The rent itself wasn't the problem, it was the location, and the rules of the house. By the end of the third week, a woman stopped by inquiring for a room. She seemed to not mind the living conditions, and had recently lost her home.
"Hello, my name is Miya, and I am here to inquire about the room for rent?" she asked as she presented a slight bow. "We have many a room availible Ms...Uh..." Minato was a bit lost as to what her last name was. "Just Miya will do. On another note are you the landlord?" she asked. "No, my co-owner of the house is the landlady..." he said as he offered a smile. "Minato, what would you like for..." Uzume stopped mid sentence as she saw who was sitting across from her ashikabi. "Well my my, this is quite thte surprise." Miya said as she turned to Uzume. "Miya, you are the one asking about the room? What happened to the Inn?" Uzume asked with a sweatdrop forming in back of her head. "I had recently 'lost' the Inn, it had become 'damaged' beyond repair and I was forced to sell the land." she said with a furrowed brow. "Well you may stay here. we don't have the fanciest facility, but we do accomidate. Anything you need just ask, okay Miya-dono? as he said that, Miya felt a sensation of heat in her chest. "Well if Minato says so, welcome to the house." Uzume added. The days to come after Miya settled in were nice, but a few days later Miya had a favor to ask. "Hey, Minato..." she asked. "What is it?" he asked crossing his arms. "May I also reserve a room for a friend? She is in a delicate situation and needs a new place to stay." she continued. "When will I meet her?" Minato asked with a slight grin. "Tomorrow, I will arrange her transport here." she said calmly. "In that case, I would love to meet your friend, I hope they are as serene and gentle as you are." Miya tensed at his words, feeling a stronger sensation of warmth slowly surround her heart. Uzume had a pretty solid idea of who she was considering bringing to the house.
The next day a sizeable van driven by Miya with everything from storage that was salvaged in the 'loss' of her inn. Out of the passenger side of the van came a bespecticled, crimson haired, voluptuous existance. "Hello, my name is Matsu, please take good care of me." she said as she gave Minato and Uzume a slight bow. Matsu then turned her attention to Minato, "Would you be the landlord?' she asked as a glare flashed from her glasses. Matsu wore a figure enhancing dress, diamond necked top with a custom collar, and silky to the touch. "I'm sorry, but I am but a manager, she is the landlady..." he said sincerely gesticulating to Uzume. "I see, what does a manager do?" she asked eagerly. "Well, I tour the guests and go over the room, and bath arrangements." he said matter of factly. Minato helped empty the van and went over the paperwork with Miya and Matsu. Uzume loved watching Minato work with people, she loved the way he pitched the rent, and always tried his best to support her. "I also teach music, I'm no Nobu Uematsu but I'm okay. If you are interested just see me later." he said. Later that day Miya and Matsu had officially moved into our house.
Sun crept in and the girls shifted enough so that he could 'ninja' out of their labyrinth. Minato made his way down to the kitchen and started breakfast. Uzume snuggled a pillow, 'this doesn't feel like Mina...' she opened her eyes to confirm that it was a pillow. "How did he escape?" she whispered to herself half-impressed. She made her way to the door of the room, and nearly tripped over Hikari. 'Shit!' she thought to herself. Hikari turned over, "...Minatooo I need help washing my..." she was sleep-talking. Uzume left the room and started toward the living room. She forgot to tell Minato the details for the gig at Maru Ichi. She then redirected her focus on the kitchen.
Minato was cooking breakfast, today they would have sausage, bacon, and eggs, with rice and fruit salad. "Minato..." Uzume said as she entered the kitchen, "...about the gig at Maru Ichi, Lee needs you ready Friday." she said still a bit tired. "And a very good morning to you, my beautiful Uzume." he said as he made the mixed fruit juice for breakfast. "Sorry, I'm still a bit taken from last night." she slid her hands around his waist "It was amazing..." she sounded in his ear. "I'm glad you enjoyed it... Not to change the subject, but I did get a call from Lee, and he said to be ready for Saturday night. That means we can all go." he said back to her finishing the juice and putting it into the freezer. "So, are the others still asleep?" he asked Uzume. "Yeah, it's just us for now..." she said absent minded. "Well it'll be a while before the hash-browns are cooked properly, so wanna help me with the last part of breakfast?" he asked smiling. Uzume wondered what he could possibly need help with, Minato whispered what he wanted Uzume to do. She blushed at the thought, and took liking to the plan.
The others were starting to wake, Musubi much easier than the others as the smell of food filled the house. "I don't know how he does it." Matsu said. "What?" the rest of the girls asked. "We all instinctively came in and slept with him, but he somehow always finds a way to leave without waking any of us." she replied to the group. "You sound disappointed Matsu-san." Kazehana remarked playfully. "I suggest we all freshen up and make our way to breakfast." Miya stated to everyone. "Okay." Musubi and the twins uttered as they left toward the washroom. Miya 'tailed' her hair exposing her crest. "When did 'that' happen?" Matsu and Kazehana said almost as in sync as the twins. "Last night. Minato came in to say good night... And it was." she said. Miya blushed and turned away as she thought back to the previous night.
When everyone was finally done getting ready, they made their way to the dining room, Musubi leading the way. When they opened the door to the dining room they weren't ready for what they saw.
