So this chapter is mostly for kicks and giggles. Especially since Ren and Kyoko haven't seen each other in a few chaps. I hope you enjoy!

Chapter 10 Chuu!
Ren's perspective:
When Ren and the boys got back to the house they saw the two young girls playing outside. Ren assumed Kyoko and Jen to be inside which was confirmed when Jen stuck her head out the window letting everyone know lunch was ready. Ren let the kids file into the house first and followed them in.
At the sink he saw Kyoko cleaning some dishes wearing an apron. A mischievous smirk crossed his face as he walked up behind her and put his arms around her to hug her tight. "Good morning" he breathed into her ear as he felt Kyoko jump from being touched so intimately. He was about to walk away having had his fun when he felt a wet hand on his cheek. He looked down to see Kyoko smiling up at him.
"It's not morning anymore, it's already lunch time Ren. You slept too long." She reached up and gave him a kiss on the lips then walked away to help Jen with the kids.
Kyoko's perspective:
Kyoko was glad to help Jen out. She enjoyed cooking and was good at cleaning. While she was doing the dishes her mind wandered off thinking about the fairies in the forest. She didn't notice all the noise from the kids walking into the house. All of a sudden she felt someone's arms wrap around her pulling her into a strong body and she heard someone say "Good morning" into her ear. She jumped from the surprise and started to panic. Tsuruga-san! What? Why? How?—WAIT! Husband and wife! Husband and wife! Husband and wife! Trying to act like a loving wife Kyoko turned her torso and placed her wet hand on his cheek. She smiled up at him and told him it was already time for lunch, not morning. She noticed the confusion in his eyes but ignored it and kept on acting and kissed him on the lips. Then she walked over to Jen. Tsuruga-san did tell me that I would have to get use to kissing people for my roles. Now is as good a time as any to practice.
While she was helping Jen put food on the plates she looked over at Ren and noticed he was still standing by the sink in the position she had left him in, back to the table and his arms looking like they were encircling something. Did I do something wrong?
"Don't worry about him honey," Jen said following the younger woman's gaze. "He's still adjusting. My husband did it for a few days after we got married too." Jen explained.
"What is he adjusting too?" Kyoko asked confused.
"Why that you're his silly. Some men find it hard to believe in the beginning of the marriage that the woman of their dreams chose them. So when you do something cute like that, showing them affection, husbands like your Ren will go into shock from the pleasure of having sole rights to you." Jen finished filling Kayra's plate and called Ren over to eat. Tsuruga-san really is the best. He's already thought this much about his role.
The meal was much louder than breakfast. The kids were no longer afraid of Ren and had an abundant amount of energy.
"After dinner tonight we're going to go down to the inn to discuss a way to get you two home." Jen told them while they were cleaning up. "Other people on the island may have some information or ideas."
