Misao awoke to feel a cold breeze blow over her body. She shivered under her blankets hearing a whispering voice next to her ear.

"It's only me, Misao." Kyo stroked the hair out of her face and looked down at her sleeping face.

"Kyo…" She muttered in her sleep, blushing up a storm. Kyo let out a chuckle bending forward and kissing her cheek.

"I came to check on you…was there someone here tonight when you got home?" He asked touching her flushed cheek. Misao eyes fluttered open a bit, looking at her alarm clock. "It's 3 in the freakin morning!" She thought with a groan.

"Kyo it's 3 in the morning…!" He nodded.

"Yes I know that I was just worried about you-" Misao pushed herself up on her elbows and glared at him with sleepy eyes.

"May I ask why?" He scowled at her, feeling a bit angry with her for attitude towards him. "Here I am trying to protect her from anything and everything and she this is the thanks I get." He thought shaking his head.

"What?" She asked getting more and more irritated with him. She looked to the window and saw it was open and that was cold breeze she felt.

"What now your just letting yourself in now?" She asked a little bit of a hiss in her voice. Kyo pulled back, and glared down at her.

"Well if you wouldn't have been snoring you would have heard me knocking!" He growled. Misao rolled her hands into two fists and glared at him with narrow eyes.

"I do not snore!" She said in a heated whisper. He let out a snort.

"Oh sure you don't-" Misao sent her fist flying towards his face. He jumped back almost colliding with her dresser.

"Dammit Misao-" He asked raising his voice more and more. There was a noise from down the hall.

"Misao honey you alright?" Yoko called from outside her door. Misao looked to the door with wide eyes, then looked back to Kyo.

"I'm fine." She called getting out of her bed and walking to the door. She looked over her shoulder and mouthed, "Go on." to Kyo. He opened his mouth to say something, but she shook her head. He closed his eyes and let out a silent sigh, and nodded. He walked over to her bed and hoped on it.

"I love you, Misao." He whispered. Misao bit her lower lip, biting back the tears that threatened to fall. Misao knew that she was being a total bitch to Kyo. He was only trying to protect her from the dangers of the best way he knew how. She nodded and mouth, "Love you too." and opened the door a crack.

"Hey mom what it is?" She asked with a yawn and began to scratch her bed head. Yoko saw that her daughter had been asleep.

"Oh...did I wake you sweetheart." Misao shrugged with a grin.

"It's okay I had to go to the bathroom anyway." She looked over her shoulder seeing that Kyo had slipped out the window and was probably already at next door by now. Misao opened the door all the way and turned on her heels heading for the bathroom. Yoko walked in felling a tad bit uncomfortable.

"Sweetheart I want to talk to you about something, something important." Misao glanced over at her Mom.

"Sure." She said walking into the bathroom and fiddling around. She really didn't have to go to the bathroom.

"It's about your and Kyo Usui…relationship." Misao bit back a moan. "I knew this talk would come one day." She thought.

"What about it?" She asked feeling her stomach and throat grow tight. "Please god don't let me throw up?" She prayed. She flushed the toilet and walked out to find her Mom looking out the window.

"Mom…you okay?" She asked. Yoko nearly jumped out of her skin, she turned seeing her daughter and giving her a reassuring smile.

"Yeah I'm fine, Misao." She said looking out the window again and the room grew quiet. Misao stood watching her Mom looking out the window for a good 3 minutes before she walked over and gently touched her shoulder.

"Mom?" Yoko gave a small jump and glanced at her daughter, then let out a sigh.

"Oh sweetheart I'm sorry I know I'm freaking you out, but I don't know what to do anymore. It's just that I love your and so does your father and we worry about you so much. We don't want anything to happen to you…." A smile splattered across her face. "You don't have to worry Kyo will protect me." She didn't have the courage to speak those words out loud.

"No worries Mom nothing going to happen to me," She gave her Mom's shoulders a squeeze. "so don't worry about me." Yoko didn't look reassured in the least, but she gave her a smile.

"Okay if you say so...come on get back to bed you got school tomorrow." Misao let out a fake yawn and blinked her eyes smacking her lips pretending she was really tired.

"Alright see you in the morning." Misao said with another yawn, this time this one was real. She crawled into bed and pulled the blankets tightly around her body.

"Night, Mom." She said. Yoko bend down and touched her lips to Misao's forehead.

"Night sweetheart." She whispered. Misao let out a heavenly sigh, falling asleep straight away. Yoko turned and walked out into the hallway, closing the door gently behind her. Yoko stood there for a few moments listening to the sounds from outside and her daughter breathing. "If anything were to happen to you Misao…you have no idea how devastated Yoshio and I would be."

"Yoko what are you doing, come back to bed." Yoshio said from the threshold of their bedroom. Yoko walked down the hall and into their bedroom. Yoshio had already crawled back into bed and was sitting up bare chest, and laying under the covers reading one of his folklore book.

"Was Misao awake?" He asked. She nodded crawling back into bed and settling back down, laying her head down on her husband's bare chest.

"Yeah, but I think I woke her." She muttered letting out a stiff yawn. Yoshio let out a chuckle, kissing the top her head.

"Did you talk to her about…you know." She nodded. Yoshio let out a sigh and closed his book, and began to stroke his wife's back.

"What did you say?" He asked. She shrugged snuggling her head on his chest, making him chuckle. "Yoko don't that tickles," She continued to tickle his chest with her hair. He let out a giggle. "Come on tell what you said." He said kissing her head again. Yoko let out a giggle, sighing a "alright" and then taking a deep breath.

"I just told her what you and I talked about…that you and I worry about her. About her and Kyo Usui's relationship."

"What did she say to that?" He asked with a snort. She shrugged against Yoshio's body.

"She just told me not to worry about her, and that she would be fine." Yoshio let out a snort.

"Easier said then done I'm afraid." She nodded.

"Yeah…yeah I know." She muttered her eyes becoming more and more heavy. She let out a sigh. Yoshio could sense that his wife was on the edge of sleep. So he leaned over switching off the light and pushing himself down so that his head was resting against his pillow.

"Night Yoshio." Yoko sighed her breathing slow and steady. Yoshio smiled at her, even though she couldn't see doing it.

"Night Yoko." He whispered kissing her forehead and pulling her body against his, and then they fell asleep with no worries about Misao, Kyo, or anything else. They slowly feel into peaceful dreams.


Misao awoke to the sun streaming through her window and a chilly breeze wash over her body. "Why is the window open again?" She asked herself. Misao almost hit herself on the head for being so stupid. "Duh you moron you never closed it!" She let out a yawn stretching out her limps and muscles. Her bedroom door was open she noticed and she could smell her mom cook breakfast. She threw the covers off and shoved her feet into her slippers, and walking out into the chilly hallway. "God why is it so cold in here?" She asked herself as she made her way downstairs.

When she walked into the kitchen she was surprised to see Yushin sitting down at the dinning room table. Misao stopped short looking to her mom and dad, and then to Yushin.

"Hey what's going on?" She asked eyeing them all. "What are you doing here?" She asked. Yoko let out a noise of disapproval.

"Misao that's rude we've rose you better then that!" She said, then looked to Yushin. "I'm sorry about Misao manners." He shook his head.

"No I completely understand why she's confused at my presence in your house...again" He said clasping his hands and laying them on the table top. "I've come to see if you would like to walk with me to school." Misao looked at him with a thing of doubt in her eye. "Uh huh, right." She thought. She looked down at her pajamas and let out a gasp. Her pajamas had tears and snags all over them.

"What the hell!" She cried

"Misao!" Her mom cried, jumping her chair and glaring at her daughter. "Watch your mouth young lady!"

"Sorry but look at my pajamas!" She cried pointing down at her pajama top. Her mom let out a gasp walking over and observing her top and looking at the damage.

"My goodness what did you do, Misao." Misao looked up at her mom with wide eyes.

"I didn't do crap! Why in the world would I destroy my brand new pajamas?" She asked her mother. Yoko shrugged.

"I don't know but I think I can sew these up. Just leave it on your bed and I'll sew the cuts and snags up later." Misao nodded thanking her mom, and leaving to change into her school uniform. When she got back down in the kitchen to grab some breakfast she saw that Yushin was eating some breakfast and talking to her dad.

"Your still studying folklore, Mr. Harada." Yoshio nodded with a laugh.

"Yes, but please call me Yoshio." Yushin let out a hardy laugh.

"Okay Yoshio." Then Yushin and Yoshio started to laugh and talk about stuff only a guy could like. Sports, folklore (anybody could like this really), and other stuff that Misao has never really cared for.

"Hey mom-"

"Here honey." Yoko said handing her a bowl of something that smelled really good made Misao's stomach growl. Misao took the bowl, smiling.

"Thanks." She walked into the dinning room and sat down and began to eat her breakfast. Yushin glanced over at her, and smiled. He lifted his hand wiggling his fingers at her. She rolled her eyes and stuffed her mouth full of rice and then looked at the clock hanging in the kitchen.

"Oh great I'm, I mean we are going to be late." She jumped up running her bowl into the kitchen and placing it into the sink. She grabbed her bag from the floor and run down the hall.

"Come on already Yushin!" She called slipping on her shoes. "You don't want to be late for your first day do you?" She asked. Yushin jumped up and ran after, grabbing his bag from the floor, and slipped on his shoes.

"Thanks for the breakfast!" He called.

"No problem, Yushin," Yoko called. "Oh wait Misao your lunch!" Yoko grabbed the box lunch from the kitchen counter and ran after her daughter who had already ran outside.

"Misao wait your lunch!" She called. Misao turned seeing her mom and the lunch.

"Oh thanks mom looks great." She took the lunch from her mom and kissed her on the cheek. "See you later tonight!" She called with a wave. Yoko waved back and then went back inside. Yushin let out a chuckle.

"Your mom is really something." Misao looked up at him and just noticed how tall he was. "He's not as tall as Kyo...maybe Sagami height." She thought, nodding.

"Yeah I know."

"So uh about last night-"

"Misao." Misao turned seeing Kyo walking towards her and Yushin.

"Hey morning Kyo!" She called with a huge smile. Kyo stopped short looking at Yushin.

"Hello who's this with you Misao?" He asked his eyes narrow. Misao let out a nervous laugh and pointed at Yushin.

"Who this, this is Yushin." She said. "He's an old friend of mine from when I was little. It was before I ever met-" She clamped her mouth shut. She could feel the tension in the air between the two of them.

She let out a cry, "YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!"
