Kid slowly blinked open his eyes. He could fell something ticking his chin, and when he looked down, he saw it was Kiachi's black hair, in a mess on the pillow. Kid smiled, remembering the night before. Now his hands were wrapped around her bare waist. He moved one hand up to caress her arm.
Oh, love was truly something magical! Kid had never felt so calm, yet so happy in his life. All his life had consisted of tragedy after tragedy, but some things were finally looking up. This girl, who had appeared off the streets as a rough around the edges type of girl, who lost her confidence, and was now building it back up, had completely changed him. Oh yes, love was something different!
Kiachi shifted, feeling the movement on her arm. She blinked her eyes open, and moved her head to look at Kid. She then moved so she was lying on her back.
"Morning," Kid told her gently. "How do you feel."
"Sore," she said with a smile. Yes, his father had told him about that.
"Suppose I did it a little rough," Kid said with a smile, a blush brightening his cheeks.
"Yes you did," Kiachi growled playfully.
Kid leaned over and kissed her lips. "I think it was worth it," he said, pulling away.
"Mhmm," Kiachi moaned, closing her eyes with a smile. Then her eyes snapped open, and she looked at Kid with urgency. "Oh, God Kid! Did we use protection?"
Kid's smile faded. "No, I wasn't exactly planning on last night.
Kiachi groaned. "Great, now i'm sore as hell and possibly pregnant."
Kid sighed. "Odds are you're not. You'll be fine."
Kiachi sighed, sitting up, the sheets slipping off her to show Kid enough to make him blush. "Whatever, lets just get ready for the day."
Kid leaned over the edge of the bed to grab his boxers that had hastily been thrown on the floor. He slipped them on under the covers, then let himself slip out of the bed. Kiachi, being less modest, slipped out of the bed without throwing clothes on and walked into the bathroom, ruffling her hair. Kid shook his head, a smile taking over his face.
Kia was in the bathroom, Kid following, when the door was knocked upon. A squeak escaped his lips. He heard three voices cracking up at it. "Don't come in!" Kid screamed.
Liz slammed the door now, and Kiachi slammed the bathroom door. Liz's jaw dropped, and Kid's face turned as red as coral. "THE HELL DID YOU DO KID?" Liz screamed, and Patty peaked into the door. Of corse, Patty practically died laughing.
"A gentleman does not talk about his private life," Kid said defiantly, crossing his arms.
"AFTER WHAT YOU DID, I DON'T THINK OF YOU AS A PROPER GENTLEMAN!" Liz yelled. "FOR ALL YOU KNOW YOU KNOCKED HER UP!"
Running water broke the awkward silence creeping into the room, besides Patty's laughing.
"Would you guys stop arguing over stupid shit?" Kiachi yelled from the bathroom. "Or can I not take a shower in peace?"
"Would you just get out?" Kid asked Liz coldly. She, in return, slammed the door on her way out.
Kiachi opened the door, and peaked her head out. "Fun morning?" she teased Kid.
"Get in the shower," he said, turning towards her, his face slowly turning back to its usual shade of tan.
"Um, no!" Kia giggled.
Kid smiled, then growled playfully, "Get in the damn shower!"
"No!" Kia squealed, running into the bathroom, with Kid chasing after her. He chased after her into the large bathroom. She disappeared into the shower that took up a whole side of the wall. Kid went to run in after her, but his face met glass as she closed the door. He pulled away, rubbing his face.
He heard laughing from the door as it slid open, with a now completely soaked Kiachi. "You're supposed to go through the door, not into it!" she squealed.
Kid just began pulling off his boxers. "Just get in the goddamn shower," he chucked.

A Few Days Later
Kid finished pulling off his black tailored jacket. He then grabbed his skull collar and began fastening it on.
"Psh," he heard as Kiachi, now in a tee shirt that didn't cover her stomach and shorts that didn't even meet her knees. "Come here, you stupid gentleman." She began fastening the skull onto him and straightening it out better than he ever had. "There," she said, satisfied, as she pulled away.
"Thank you," Kid said, turning back to the mirror to check her work. As he saw there was no flaws, he turned back to her with a smile. He kissed her forehead, then said, "We should probably head downstairs before Liz starts spreading her gossip."
Kiachi rolled her eyes with a smile. "She still thinks you knocked me up?"
Kid chucked, and nodded. They made their way out of his bedroom and into the kitchen. To Kid's happiness, she had become more social with the sisters.
"Hey!" she called out happily, receiving and giving a hug to Patty.
"Hey," Liz said with a smirk, leaning on the table.
"Don't give us that look, Liz," Kid scolded, back to his normal, disapproving face. Liz stuck her tongue out at him.
"Naww, don't be mad," Kia cooed, coming up to hug him.
He hugged her back with a fleeting smile. She pulled away to look up at his face, and asked, "What's got you so grumpy?"
"Father wants to talk to me again," Kid said with a sigh. "He's been on my back quite a lot lately."
"At least your father wants to talk to you," Kia said. "Mine ignores me."
"You're right, as always," Kid said with a small smile, then back to his normal face.
"You better get going," Kia said, giving Kid a gentle push. "Make me proud," she kissed them, then he left.
