Groggily Yuki descended the stairs and gave some manner of greeting to Tohru as she prepared breakfast. Then, hearing the rats discussing the movements of Kyo outside, he slid open the door and observed Kyo taking shirts carefully down off the line and folding them in the basket.
"So, I'm still asleep?" Yuki said quizzically and turned to go back to bed.
Kyo's head snapped, "What's that supposed to mean?"
Yuki turned back, "Are you doing what I think you're doing?"
"Now who's an idiot," Kyo retorted.
"But - ?" Yuki couldn't process this new information so early in the morning.
"Kyo-kun!" Tohru said, surprised. "But I told you I would do the laundry today. If you had needed it sooner, I could have worked on it while preparing breakfast."
Yuki nodded, finally understanding, "You were helping out Honda-san."
"Helping me?" Tohru paused. "Please tell me you haven't been doing my chores for the past three hours."
Kyo nodded, "The only floors left to do are the kitchen and Shigure's room. And this is the last load of laundry to be put away. I can finish the other floors while you clean up breakfast."
"Kyo-kun, it was very kind of you, but it is my responsibility. I just couldn't let you do anymore then you've already done," Tohru replied.
Yuki paused, "You mean you already cleaned my floor?" Kyo nodded and Yuki glared suspiciously, "I locked that door."
"I unlocked it," Kyo shrugged.
"Too tired to fight," Yuki said and walked off.
Kyo turned back to Tohru, "Now you have no excuses not to go an enjoy yourself at that movie today."
"Oh, Kyo-kun, that's why you did everything," Tohru said, smiling. "Would you like to come with me? It's supposed to be quite good."
Kyo nodded, "I can't let you walk out there by yourself."
"Should I invite Yuki-kun?" Tohru asked.
"Let's not," Kyo said, shuddering.
Tohru shrugged lightly, "Okay, if you don't want to we don't have to."
Kyo saw through what she meant, "Fine! Invite the damn rat!" Then he stormed off.
Tohru watched him go off, deliberating whether that did constitute as consent. Deciding Kyo really wouldn't mind, she walked upstairs and opened Yuki's door to find him back in bed. Closing the door hurriedly, she knocked on the door.
"Yuki-kun?" Tohru called. "Breakfast is ready and I wanted to know whether you would like to come to that movie that just came out with Kyo and I."
Yuki opened the door, still looking more dead than alive, "Sure, sounds great." Then he stumbled down the stairs, leaving Tohru to wonder if he really knew what he'd agreed to.
The answer was evident later.
