*One week later*
Godai woke up at four in the morning and remembered an important detail he forgot a week earlier before Yagami and Nikaido moved in. Yotsuya had several bad habits and may use Yagami and Nikaido. He then promptly went back to sleep, deciding to deal with it later.
"Uh, what time is it?" asked a very groggy Yagami as she looked over at her clock. "Arghh, 7:47, I'm going to be late again," she yelled frantically as she got dressed and ready to go to school.
Unbeknownst to her, Yotsuya was watching her the whole time from the ceiling eating dried squid. As she was undressing, Yagami had this tingling feeling on the back of her neck. She finally looked up. "Yotsuya, you peeping tom!" she screamed and picked up the nearest object and hurled it at Yotsuya. Unfortunately for our favorite moocher it happened to be a very high-heeled shoe and become embedded on his forehead. After being knocked out, the roof came crashing down on Yagami with Yotsuya on top.
Twenty seconds later, the entire household came to see what was going on. As they opened the door they found a half-naked Yagami, clad in only a bra and panties, with Yotsuya on top of her in a very compromising situation (use your imagination,) with a heel stuck out of his forehead.
Eight seconds later, "What are you looking at. Get him off of me. Oh no, I'm late; I'll clean up later. Goodbye," said a very frantic Yagami.
"You're not going out like that are you?" asked Kyoko, "and I didn't know that there were classes on Sunday."
Hurriedly Yagami grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her. "Well what are you all looking at, turn around."
Everyone turned around (sweat drop here) and waited. "Sorry for waking up everyone. I thought today was Monday and that I was late. Then I look up and there was Mr. Yotsuya looking down on me. I didn't know what to do so I threw my shoe at him."
"Great, now we'll have to hire carpenters and get the rooms fixed," said Godai.
"Oh don't worry Godai, I'll do it. Carpentry is still one of my favorite hobbies. Just give me the money to go buy the materials and I'll finish it today. It's not like I have anything to do," said Nikaido.
"Hey that's a great idea, and I'll give you a hand too," said Godai.
"What do we do about Yotsuya here," said Mrs. Ichinose talking about the still knocked out Mr. Yotsuya.
"Take him to Akemi's room and let him rest. Akemi won't be coming over today," said Kyoko, "and let's put some medicine over that wound of his. I bet he'll have a massive headache when he wakes up."
"I hope I didn't hurt him too badly," said a worried Yagami.
"Oh don't worry, he had it coming," said Godai with a laugh, "besides maybe now he'll have some sense knocked into him."
"So Godai, shall we go?" asked Nikaido. "Yeah, let's go."
"I'd like to go too," said Yagami.
"Sure, I'll drive," said Nikaido.
"This is going to be an interesting day," said Godai to Kyoko privately.

At the hardware store, the trio set out to get the wood and miscellaneous items. "Godai, do you want to get that hole in your wall fixed," asked Nikaido.
"Why bother, Yotsuya will just make another one, besides I don't use that room much anymore, just to store stuff and have parties."
"Why don't you just kick him out?" asked Yagami, "I mean he doesn't always pay his rent on time and he keeps mooching and peeping."
"It goes beyond that Yagami, his family is connected to the building somehow and I don't want to ruin that tradition for it may bring misfortune upon us."
"Well how do we keep him from peeping on me?" asked Yagami.
"I have an idea, it's going to cost a little more money, but in the long run it's going to be worth it," said Nikaido.
"As long as it isn't going to cost too much.
*****
Fixing the damage only took a few hours with Godai and Yagami helping Nikaido. He really was a talented carpenter who knew what he was doing. Even the little surprise they left for Yotsuya, in case he decided to peep again, was ingenious. Yotsuya had "work" that day and could not help. Mrs. Ichinose, Kyoko, and Haruka made dinner for everyone that night.
"Kampai," yelled everyone in unison, even Mr. Yotsuya, who just happened to come home in time for dinner.
"Well that was a fun day," said Yagami.
"Yeah, it was," agreed Nikaido.
"Well I hope that we don't have to do anymore repairs like that for a while," said Godai.
"Oh I don't mind," said Nikaido, "as long as I have help."
"And I'll always help," said an eager Yagami.
Silence.
"Well dinner was great. Kentaro are you done eating yet," asked Mrs. Ichinose.
"Yes mom, I was just playing with Haruka here,"
"Well say goodnight and let's go to bed."
"Kyoko and I are going to bed as well," said Godai.
"I must return to my abode and finish reading my Ranma ½ manga," said Mr. Yotsuya.
Everyone left room five, everyone that is except Yagami and Nikaido. "Well I'm not sleepy yet. Do you want to watch a movie here?" asked Nikaido.
"Yeah,"
They turned on the TV and watched an American romantic comedy staring Meg Ryan. As the movie progressed the two snuggled against each other. Towards the end of the movie they looked at each other and their lips came closer and closer together. A noise in the corner stopped them. They looked over at Yotsuya eating popcorn.
"Oh don't mind me. Please continue."
"I think we should call it a night," said Nikaido.
"Yeah, I have school tomorrow," replied Yagami.
With that they both left for their respective rooms. Yotsuya sat there alone in the darkness and then thought up of a haiku:
Two birds move closer
Prepared to sing unison
Interrupted fly
Author's Notes: In case you are wondering, in the anime there was an episode that showed the gang finding a photo album containing pictures of what seemed like Yotsuya at the opening of Maison Ikkoku, and at several other historical events. At first they thought that Yotsuya was some sort of immortal soul who did not age or die. Later they find out that it was his family album, hence his family is connected to Maison Ikkoku. Also in a few anime episodes he creates haiku. And don't worry, you'll find out what the surprise for Yotsuya is later.
