QN: Sorry, if this chapter is crummy, but it's so early and I'm so tired, so let's start!

~~~~~~~~~*

Kagome turned another page of her book and sighed dreamily. She put down her book and rested her head on her palm, and her elbow on the table. She looked down and read the cover of the book.

Love Life by: Carl Kestrosen

Oh, how she wished her life was like this very insidious book. Just then the door opened to reveal a road killed Yoki and a pancake Shuiichi.

Kagome sweatdropped. Now what happened? She thought as she eyed them both.

Shuiichi blushed while Yoki eyed her back, only he was not eyeing her.

Kagome looked at her hand and hastily pushed the book under the cushions, her head read as a volcano. Yoki made a mental note to check under the sofa later. Kagome glared at him, knowing what was going on his little thick head.

Shuiichi sighed as the level of heat went up a bit, and it was definitely not coming from the sun. They were dead enough; they did not need to go through another layer of... they did not want to be dead anytime soon to put it simply.

~* FlashBack *~

Do you recall Four-Seven Garden Drive? The most peaceful, beautiful, quite neighborhood in all of Japan? Its so peaceful, birds will come when summoned, people will make music on a bench in public and passerby's will not even mind? Do you know that quite neighborhood that no thieves rob? That quite little road?

Its peacefulness...was ruined.

Pant. Pant. Pant.

Pant. Pant. Pant.

Scream. Scream. Scream.

Yoki, with Shuiichi running close behind, turned sharply and hid behind a blue and white brick wall as the herd of girls gathered like a min sheep herd, ran on by screaming, screeching and calling their names. It was very annoying to say the least. Yoki and Shuiichi panted as they tried to regain their breaths. Then Yoki did something totally unexpected; it even caught Shuuichi off guard.

Finally, Shuiichi found the humorous side of all of this and started to laugh as well. That is until the herd of fan girls turned around and chased them out of town.

When Yoki suddenly proposed to find Shuiichi's 'lover' they had been all across town. Literally, all across town. When they met up with Yoki's fan club, it did not help when they ran into Shuiichi's fan club. When the two groups joined up together, it just made things worse.

If it was someone other than Yoki, Shuiichi would not have agreed with his proposal, but he had to make sure Yoki did not do anything stupid like go into a bar and come out with a load full of whores, and bring them all to Shuiichi's office. Man, that would be hell.

Now, Yoki suddenly stopped in front of a HUGE park, and looked hastily from left to right. Shuiichi, from behind, was dancing from one foot to the next, throwing scared looks over his shoulder while looking at Yoki at the same time.

"Yoki?" he asked, frightened to death at the HUMOUNGOUS group of girls running full speed towards them.

"Yoki?!" Nothing.

"YOKI!" Still nothing.

"YOKI!?!" Finally, Yoki ran full speed to the trees of the park. Shuiichi gladly followed, right on Yoki's heel.

The fan girls, followed right on there tail, (which speed them up pretty quickly) and while doing so, did not have enough room to move when a tree came up.

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

If Yoki and Shuiichi had not been running for their lives they would have tossed their heads back and laughed out at the stupid fan girls.

Then, it got silent and the only thing to be heard was Yoki and Shuiichi's pants and running feet. When they were sure that no more fan club girls were chasing them, they stopped and tried to regain what little breath they had. Just then, Shuiichi, in his exhausted state, got up and to stretch. He found that his legs would most likely collapse under him, so he leaned against the nearest tree for support instead. Yoki just stayed on the ground, panting like it was his only way of living.

Shuiichi looked up, and gasped in surprise.

Yoki looked up, and instead of repeating Shuiichi, tensed up so much, that his muscles started to cramp up. He never meant for them to go this far into the woods.

In front of them, was a long, plain field, with a small pond, the size of a house apartment smack dab in the middle. It had little, dark green leaves in it, with big, not so much as sharp, but not momentary soft rocks circling it. It had a little stream out and inside the water with a small little waterfall that would be good for a thirteen-year-old kid, it was not the kind of fantasy pond, but it was beautiful non-the-less, but that was not the only thing about this plain. About thirty yards away, was a medium sized house/cabin. It did not necessarily look like a house, but it did not look like a cabin too. It looked a little old (doesn't ever cabin? Shuiichi thought) and had a lot of ivy plants on it, but other than that, it looked nice for a family of five.

Shuiichi turned to look at Yoki, a stunned expression leaked through his usual calm façade.

"Yoki..." he hesitated. "Is this..." he started, but was quickly cut off.

"-Nothing. This is nothing." He sent a glare Shuiichi's way and turned his back to the longing scene, and walked away.

Shuiichi hesitated, and after a moment threw a soft glance towards the quite plain and hurried to catch up with Yoki, but he noticed Yoki kept the mask that he used when he did not want to be bothered, so Shuiichi didn't even try. After that, Yoki kept quite and Shuiichi felt like he ruined their moment of peace and relaxation. If he knew that would happen he would have not asked at all.

Or was it the cabin? He asked himself softly in his head. It was either that or nothing. When they got out of the woods, there fan girls (alerted by a scream coming from one of them) chased them out of town and took all afternoon to shake them off there tail (they were probably about halfway across Asia by then), then they headed home.

That brings us back to now.

~* End of Flash Back *~

Shuiichi sighed as he, knowing things would not get pretty anytime soon, excused himself and left. A few steep of walking out the door and he almost lost his balance with the huge racket and the ground shaking, and presumed it was Kagome.

When he got back to his office (A huge bandage plasterd on his face, for the many times he lost his balance), he sat down and buried his face in his hands.

Hopefully tomorrow will be better than today.
