Chapter 38.

Manta followed Faust closely behind him as they stepped into the house. Two men wearing white suits walked out.

" The premesis has be cleaned its safe to go and liveable again.." One said as they left.

" Yes, Thankyou" Faust lifted his hand up and watched as they left. He sighed. " They may have cleaned the house..but..they can't change whats happened here"

Manta nodded sighing sadly. "mmm lets go inside..." Faust said.

" Faust-san...could you...could you please make the room right next to mine yours?" Manta asked fear overcoming him.

" Of course whatever you wish..." He smiled walking into the kitchen. Manta sighed sadly *~ I guess he's used to this sort of thing*~ He thought as he looked down at a small skeleton dog that wagged its tail at him. A chill ran up his spine.

" F...F...Faust...." Manta gasped backing away. Faust smiled as he started to make a sandwhich. " Oh eheh don't worry thats only Franky he won't hurt you!"

" Franky..huh.." Manta gulped then sprinted into the kitchen to meet Faust.

As Manta stood on his tippy toes watching Faust prepare the Sandwhiches intently the door bell rang. " Oh Dear Eliza..I am pretty sure that it isn't anyone we don't know so could you please answer the door?" Faust asked.

The woman nodded as she glided across the room and opened the rather large door.

*~ This is gonna take alot of getting used to...*~ Manta shivered.

" Manta-chan?" Yoh's voice boomed cheerfully.

" Yoh...Yoh-kun!!!!" Manta beamed as he bounded into the living room. Faust smiled.

" Hey Manta-chan...I got out today...I was hoping you were home..." He smiled tenderly as he stepped into the house carefully.

" Oh Yoh-kun..I'm glad your alright!!" Manta cryed hugging him tightly. Faust looked Yoh up and down and smiled once more as he began to make a third sandwhich. " Would you like to stay for the night? Get a feel for this place if you are thinking about living here that is..." Faust nodded.

" Sure...it'll be good to get away from Anna for atleast one more night she doesn't need to know I got out yet!" He grinned widely. Manta laughed.

*~ Finally I get to be even closer to Yoh-kun*~ Manta's spirits went up a bit.

" mmmm You can sleep in the same room as Manta then..." Faust said grinning, noticing the two boys blush heavily. Yoh sat beside Manta as they ate their sadwhiches on the couch. Manta sighed sadly and Yoh looked over at him.

" Ahhhhhh Manta-chan...everything will work out somehow.." Yoh smiled rubbing his head. " Lets watch TV" Yoh said grabbing the remote.

" Mmmmmm...I guess so..but just please don't put the news on.." Manta said taking slow bites. Yoh nodded and laughed putting some cartoons on. Manta smiled in comfort. Yoh eased himself closer to Manta and quickly scooped him up resting him onto his lap.

" Y...Yoh-kun?" Manta looked up at him blushing.

" Shhh....Just stay here with me and take it easy..." Yoh cooed.

*~ He's been acting really different twords me recently is it just because of whats happened or...?*~ He thought staring up at Yoh once again but was soon interupted.

" Hey guys want some Pop?" Faust asked.

Yoh Laughed loudly at the fact oof Faust using old fashion words then smiled. " Yea sure...is there Melon flavored?"

" I want Orange..." Manta rang out. Faust nodded " Strawberry for me.." He said carrying the cans into the living room and stopping short when he got a glimps of Manta and Yoh. He blush then smiled handing them their soda's then sitting down on the black recliner. Manta sighed feeling sad and angry remembering that the recliner had been his dads.

Faust looked up as the door bell once again rang. He got up from his chair and began to walk towards the door. Then opened it slowly and smiled.

" Good afternoon!" He smiled " Come in.."

Ryu nodded stepping in as he carried a rather large 3 box bento wrapped up in a baby blue hankerchief. He looked over turning red as he saw Manta sitting in Yoh's lap. Yoh grinned raising his hand up.

" D...Don't tell Anna I'm here Ryu..." Yoh laughed.

" Whatever you say buddy.." Ryu smiled " This is for the three of you.." He pointed to the Bento.

" Yum wow thanks so much Ryu it'll be a great change from all that terrible hospital food!" Yoh smiled.

" I agree" Ryu grinned. " well I have to get going Anna wants me to go fish shopping so I just stopped by to leave this here."

" Thanks..Ryu-san.." Manta said softly tears forming in his eyes.

Ryu grinned and gave him the thumbs up " Get better little one.." He walked towards the door and left.

" We'll have to save this for dinner!" Yoh grinned bringing it to the very large silver fridge. Manta sat on the couch staring into the TV multicolored bears with symbols on their bellies dancing and singing in the clouds. Hearts flying everywhere. Faust looked at the TV strangly wondering exactly what he was watching. Yoh walked back into the living room and sat down once more. Yoh laughed loudly teasing Manta.

" Care Bears Count down 5 4 3 2 1!!" He teased tickling Manta.

" Hey!!!" Manta turned bright red pretending not to watch.

" Its alright" Yoh laughed flashing his belly " Care bear stare!!!" He yelled laughing hard and falling back onto the couch.

Manta laughed turning red as he got a good look at Yoh's figure.

Horo Horo looked in Ren's closet laughing hard.

" What is it you oaf!?" Ren snarled.

" HAHAHAH!!!!! Its just so funny so damn funny!!!!" HoroHoro snorted then laughed loudly pointing to the black cape with the fur on the edge of the coller.

" Why is that so funny!?" Ren snorted loudly.

" Cause it is!!! what do you think you are a King? Ren-samma!! Poofy-Poofy vampirey cape-sama!!!" Horo sang loudly.

" UGH!!! do you want me to hit you Baka-chan! You dumb blue boy!!!!!" He snarled

" OoooooOOOooo Ren's gonna hit me!!! makes me excited!!" Horo laughed harder.

Ren's face light up. Jun sighed. " What the hell are you an old married couple!?" She complained.

Ren blushed deeper " S...Sister don't say such foolish words!!!" He hid his face.
