Kougaiji was clearly putting up this "Toki" thing to steal Sanzo's sutra...And something else. He was pretending to be modest and friendly too.

Yaani then faced Gojyo and the others.

"Ne...I'm sure you haven't seen Toki in a while...So after dinner, why don't we all go out to the garden so that all of you could catch up.That way we're not too far away from the house in case there's another ambush."

Gojyo scratched his head. "If you said so..............." He eyed Kougaiji if he would react to the word "ambush".

Much to his suprise, he didn't.

===== F L A S H B A C K E N D=====



Sanzo and Hakkai were seated on the grass outside in Yaani's garden while Kougaiji, Yaani herself, Goku and Gojyo were still inside, cleaning up.

"Ne...Yaani-san....Are you sure that there isn't any more food...?"

"^^;; Ah..Gomen Goku I was able to only prepare some food tonight..."

"Oh...Well...Thanks anyway."

"Hn."

With that, Goku stepped off his chair and went outside to join Sanzo and Hakkai.

"Good...that brat's outta the way..." Gojyo said to himself.

"Demo..."He cast one look at 'Toki' who was conversing with Yaani while she was cleaning up the table.

"What a bother...This really sucks...." He sighed and walked over to Yaani and Toki.

Gojyo reached out from behind Yaani and guided her hands to place down the plates, then placed his arms around her waist.

"Wouldn't it be rude to..." He cast a secretive rude glare at Kougaiji; "...to Toki to be busy and not be able to entertain him or something?"

Yaani smiled and said "Maybe...You're right..." she cleared to sink, washed her hands and spun around to face Gojyo.

"Dakara..." she slipped away from Gojyo and took Toki/Kougaiji's hand. "Let's show our guest to the garden, ne? You've got alot to catch up on."

"Darn.", Gojyo muttered under his breath. He followed Yaani and Toki out.

"Oh and by the way," she said suddenly, turning around to face Gojyo. "If it's okay with you, Toki'd want to stay over too."

"If it's okay with me?" Gojyo said without thought.

Yaani raised an eyebrow in an "you-know-what-I-mean--let's-not-make-it-obvious" manner and smirked.

"Oh...right..." Gojyo said, eyeing Toki like a hawk.

"A-re? What did that mean?" Toki asked ever-so-sincerely. If Kougaiji hadn't introduced himself to Yaani as Toki, Gojyo had strangled him already right in front of her.

Yaani gave a stiff giggle at Toki but glanced back at Gojyo.

"Any questions?"

"Anou....yeah....whose room is he gonna stay in?" Gojyo replied. "Please not let it be ours, please not let it be ours...And don't ask him oh God please don't ask him..."

"Well..." Yaani thought for awhile. She faced Toki. "What room do ya wanna stay in?"

Toki gave a sneer at Gojyo and said: "What about the master's bedroom? I'm sure there's alot of space..."

"Sou ka...[1]" Yaani whispered.

"A-re?" Toki said.

"Aahh....Iie[2]...Nandemonai[3]!..."

"So...Ne, I'm dying to see your garden...And maybe some other day you could give me a full tour of the house, ne?" Toki counter-replied.

"Ah...Hai! Sou desune...[4]"

With that, Yaani took one step out the door and winked at Gojyo, leading Toki out the garden.



~Garden, 5 minutes later.

"The stars are...so bright tonight..." Yaani said. She was seated, her back leaning against Gojyo.

"Yeah...bright." He replied, murmuring, Toki watching them not-too-far-away.

"That scene would've looked better if I was there instead of Gojyo...He's too unfit to waste such a precious girl on." Kougaiji thought to himself.

He silently sighed and walked back in the house.

"Hmm?" Yaani said, leaning over the side to see where Toki was headed. "Na...Toki.Where're you going?"

"Ah..I plan to uh....sleep early today." he said, tilting his head abit before turning the doorknob and going in.

They all stared at the door as it shut.

"Ahh...I think I better help him settle down..Do you think something's wrong with him?" Yaani said, wriggling free from Gojyo's arms and stood up.

"Iie...I don't think so." Hakkai said politely. "Even if Kougaiji is the enemy, we must pity him because he has problems too..."

"Demo[5]...Maybe I should go with you too, ne?" Gojyo said, standing up too.

Yaani started towards the front door."Anou[6]...Gojyo maybe Toki...needs some female company, that's all..." she said, lowering her gaze.

Gojyo was startled. "Uh..Sure...Whatever..."

Yaani smiled weakly. "Thanks for understanding."

Gojyo gave her a soft wave and smiled back. "Anything for you."

She smiled one more time and closed the door behind her.

Gojyo watched Yaani's shadow form outside as she climbed up the stairs until it was obscured by a wall.

Sighing, he sat down on the rock he had dreamt about and Kougaiji had mentioned.

Looking up at the sky, he murmured "Too bright."

Sanzo walked over to the front door and passing Gojyo, he "ch"ed at him and got in the house.

Goku involuntarily followed Sanzo, asking him for food and Sanzo whacking him with his paper fan.

Hakkai walked over to Gojyo and placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Give her time," he said smiling.

"Anou...Hakkai...What would you do if you were in my position?"

"Hmm...depends on what you feel about the situation, really..."

"Alright alright...I'm jealous...Plus I feel suspicious..."

Hakkai gazed up at the sky and said: "Then...Be abit less protective...It won't solve anything..."

He withdrew his hand and started towards the door.

"Trust me."

"Trust me..."

Gojyo sighed and followed his "best friend" in the house.
