"Tohru, your house is exquisite!" Ayame said, glancing around the
comfortable sitting room. A small group of Zodiac members had come over
both to help move Kisho's things into the house and to see the house they
had heard so much about. It had somehow turned into a small party, with
snacks and drinks. Kisho was asleep in his room, with a baby monitor tuned
in to catch his every whimper.
"It's very nice, Tohru." Kagura said, peek around. "So pretty and spacious! And the furniture fits the rooms so well!"
"I know. It feels like they've been living here for years." Hatori said, smiling at Tohru. "I think Tohru could make anywhere a home."
Tohru blushed a bright red at the compliment and started waving her hands frantically. Kyo looked up from across the room and smirked. He made his way over to where Tohru was frantically babbling about how she had NOTHING to do with the house, it was all Yuki and Kyo's idea. He put his hands on her shoulders, effectively halting her frantic protests. "I think I'm making a new rule." He whispered in her ear, making her shiver. "When you act all modest, I'm gonna do the same thing I do when you're apologizing." She blushed a furious ruby red at the reminder, causing Kyo to grin and the others to wonder what the heck he had said to the poor rice ball.
"I'm sorry." She said, eyes white. "I didn't mean." She clamped her hands over her mouth, hoping Kyo hadn't noticed her little slip. The unholy grin on his face told her he had, and he was going to make her pay for it. He glanced at the small group of people around them. Hatori and Kagura he wasn't too worried about, but if he did anything in front of Ayame, well, it wouldn't be pretty.
"I'll collect later." He whispered in her ear, causing her to shiver again. He strolled off, smiling.
"WHAT did he say to you?" Ayame asked, deeply amused. "You look like you just took a swim in red paint!"
Tohru put her hands to her cheeks. "Nothing!" She said hastily. They looked at each other, but didn't argue.
"We should probably start home." Hatori said, looking at his watch. "It's late, and they have to be up early to get to the train on time." The others agreed and said their goodbyes to the trio, who had escorted their guests to the door. Once the last person had left they slid the door shut with a sigh of relief.
"Well, that was a nightmare." Yuki sighed. "How did it turn into a party, anyway?"
"Hell if I know." Kyo said, scowling. "I just called Hatori and asked him ta come up and help us get that crib up, and he brought the whole damn motley crew."
"Well, it was a nice surprise." Tohru said, smiling. "Will one of you clean up this room while the other helps me with the dishes?"
"I'll work in here." Kyo said, and started picking up the cups that had been left lying everywhere. Tohru took them from him and carried them to the kitchen, where she started washing while Yuki dried and put them away. After the dishes were finished, Tohru went upstairs and checked on Kisho, while Yuki and Kyo made sure everything was locked up for the night. Once the lights were all out downstairs, the boys went upstairs, where Tohru was sitting at the dressing table, brushing her hair for the night. A lamp in the corner was the only light in the large room.
She smiled at them. "I've already had my bath." She said, gesturing to her wet hair. "Whoever's next can go ahead."
Kyo sighed and got his pajamas out of the dresser. "I'm so tired I think I'll fall asleep in the shower." He said, heading for the bathroom.
"Is Kisho still sleeping?" Yuki asked, standing behind Tohru, who was still brushing her hair. He took the brush from her hand and took over the task, running his fingers through the strands he had just brushed.
Tohru's eyes drifted closed. She had always enjoyed having her hair brushed. "Uh huh." She said dreamily. "He'll probably sleep until morning. He's gotten better about that."
"I've noticed." Yuki said. "He's four months old now, right?"
"Yes. He's really a good baby." She shivered when he put the brush down on the table and started braiding her hair, tugging lightly on her scalp and sending tingles all the way down to her toes.
Kyo came out of the bathroom and tossed his dirty clothes in the wicker hamper by the door. He glanced at Yuki, who had just tied off Tohru's hair. Tohru still had her eyes closed, completely relaxed. He grinned and snuck over, gesturing for Yuki to step aside. The rat frowned, but did as asked.
Kyo ran his fingers gently over her scalp, causing goose bumps to rise on her skin. He leaned down and inhaled the faint fragrance of roses in her hair, then whispered in her ear, "I think it's time to collect on that little apology earlier."
Tohru jumped and turned, only to have her lips collide with his. Yuki smirked and got his pajamas out of the closet, then sat on the bed to wait for them to finish so he could have his bath.
It took a while. Kyo was determined to break her of the apologizing habit, and if he enjoyed the various.punishments.then that was ok too. He brought his hands up to cup the back of her head, lacing his fingers through her braid and scratching her scalp lightly with his nails, just enough to send shivers down her spine. She whimpered into his mouth, taking the initiative and deepening the kiss first. Kyo moaned and slid one hand farther down to wrap around her waist while the other still cupped her head. He bent her backwards slightly, delving into her mouth like a child trying to get the last bit of ice cream from a cone. They finally broke apart and sat back up, chests rising and falling rapidly. Tohru's eyes were dark cobalt, an attractive blush spreading over her cheekbones, while Kyo's eyes were glowing slightly.
"Are you finished?" Yuki asked dryly, standing to head for the bathroom. "I wanted to take a bath, if you could keep your hands to yourself." He looked back over his shoulder and smirked. "I'll take my turn when I get out." He said, meeting Tohru's heavy lidded eyes with his own. He smiled at the slow blush that spread over her face.
"Don't worry, we won't ask you to do anything you aren't ready for." Kyo said, putting his hand on her shoulder again. Tohru smiled shyly, her blush deepening to a rose color.
"I know." She said, resting her cheek on his hand. "Thank you." She stood and pecked him on the cheek then crawled into bed, snuggling under the covers. Kyo smiled and followed her, lying to her left. She curled up against him in their usual position, with her back to his chest, his arms around her waist. She draped one arm over the one on his waist and stuck the other under her pillow.
A few more minutes and Yuki came out as well, drying his hair vigorously with a towel. He tossed it into the hamper as well, then climbed into bed on the right. He scooted close to Tohru and lifted her head slightly off the pillow, and kissed her full on the lips. She was completely shocked, and opened her mouth to gasp, allowing Yuki to dart in and take control. He ran his tongue over every inch of her mouth, plundering and possessing. She sighed into his mouth and let him do what he wanted, occasionally making little forays into his mouth as well, drawing moans from the silver haired boy.
Kyo groaned to himself. They had never done this before, one of them holding her while the other one kissed her. For some reason, it didn't bother him. Maybe the slight undulation that had her rubbing against him like a cat had something to do with it too. He groaned again when she rubbed her bottom against his groin, calling a particular part of him to attention. He wrapped his arms more firmly around her, pulling her more tightly against him. "Tohru, please, stop moving." He said through gritted teeth, doing his best to keep his promise about not moving forward faster than she wished to go.
Yuki broke the kiss slowly, breathing heavily. He darted his tongue out and licked her upper lip one more time before tucking her head under his chin. "I'd better stop, or I won't be able to." He said, his voice huskier than usual. He could feel the heat of her face against his skin, her warm breath panting against his chest. He groaned and ran his hand over her hair, eventually soothing her to sleep. For the boys, however, sleep came much later.
* * *
"Welcome back." The hot spring hostess said, leaning heavily against the gate as she opened it for her three guests. "I'm so glad you decided to spend your honeymoon at our humble resort."
"Thank you!" Tohru said, smiling at her. "I was so excited when I heard we were coming back for the whole weekend!"
"Thank you." Said the hostess, smiling at her. "I'm afraid Ritsu isn't here at the moment, he his out shopping. I will have him come say hello when he gets back, if you like."
"Yes please!" She said, smiling happily. Behind her, Yuki and Kyo shifted, holding both their bags and hers. "Oh, may we be shown to our room please?" She asked, sending them an apologetic look. They smiled at her.
"Of course." The hostess said, leading them to a small house on the far side of the resort. "This is our honeymoon suite. I hope everything is to your liking." She opened the doors and stepped to the side, so the three could precede her into the room. Tohru sighed happily. It was a simple room, but very elegant at the same time. The bed was western style and took up a large part of the room, standing in the corner. Drapes could seal it off from the rest of the room, while a small clothing chest was at it's foot. The wall directly across the room had a large stone fireplace, with a small table set in front, a wrapped box sitting on it. Soft mats covered the floor. A small curtained alcove led to a small bathroom, with a toilet, sink, and shower. There was a door in the back, which the hostess opened, showing a luxurious private hot spring. A tall fence separated it from the rest of the resort, with bamboo and other plants growing nearby, creating an oasis. A small box just outside the door held clean, white towels with a separate box for the used ones.
"It's so pretty!" Tohru said, eyes shining.
"I'm glad you like it." The hostess said, smiling. "I'll leave you alone now. If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask." She pointed to a phone in the corner of the room. "That's how you can contact someone from the staff. Just hit the star, and it will connect you. The present is from your brother, young Master Yuki." With one last bow, she left them alone.
Yuki stared at the package suspiciously. "I'm almost afraid to open this." He said, poking it.
"I'm not gonna." Kyo said, frowning at it.
"We can always save it for later." Tohru said, smiling. "What do you two think of the room?"
"Pretty nice." Kyo said, glancing around. "That water looks good."
"It does." Tohru said, glancing at it with longing. "Does anyone else want a bath?"
"I think I would." Yuki said. "Do you want towels, or swim suits?"
"Um, can we wear swim suits?" She asked, blushing. "At least this first time?"
"Of course." Yuki said, smiling. He went to his suitcase and pulled his trunks out, while Kyo and Tohru did the same. "We'll change out here, you can use the bathroom." He said, pushing her into the tiny room and pulling the curtain closed behind her.
It took her a little longer to change than them, so they took the time to unpack their belongings and stare at the package, wondering just what was in it.
"I'm not sure I wanna know." Kyo said, glancing at Yuki.
"We have to open it eventually." Yuki sighed. "It would be rude to refuse a gift."
"Even if it's from your no good brother?" Kyo asked, frowning.
"Even then." Yuki said, smirking. He turned at the sound of the curtain being pulled back and smiled appreciatively. "You look lovely, Tohru."
Tohru, who was clad in a one-piece suit that was the exact shade of her eyes, blushed. "Thank you." She said shyly. She carried her discarded clothing over to the chest and folded it neatly before putting it inside. She stepped past the two boys, who were just watching her, and dipped her foot in the spring, sighing happily at the temperature. She stepped slowly in the water, sitting comfortably on a submerged bench that kept the warm water at chin level. She looked over at Yuki and Kyo, who were standing at the water's edge. "Come on in!" She said, smiling at them. "I don't want to be in here by myself."
"We're coming." Yuki said, smiling. He dipped his foot into the water just as she had and nodded approvingly before stepping in himself. He sighed as the water closed about him, the heat driving any and all tension from his muscles. Kyo joined them a moment later, after getting all three of them towels from the box and dropping them on the clean stones that lined the spring.
"This is so nice." Tohru said, wetting a rag in cold water and putting it on her head to counteract the heat. "Thank you for bringing me here."
"It was our pleasure." Yuki said. "What do you want to do after dinner?"
"Well, I'd like to go back to the game room." She said, looking thoughtful. "I think I'd like to try playing ping pong again." She blushed. "Maybe I'll actually be able to hit the ball this time!"
Yuki and Kyo chuckled. "We'll teach you how to play." Yuki said, smiling. "It's not hard." He looked up, surprised, as a light tap was heard on their door. "Who could that be?" He wondered aloud, stepping out of the tub. He wrapped the towel around his waist and went to answer the door. Ritsu stood there, wringing his hands, looking like he was going to run.
"Ritsu!" Tohru said, beaming. She stepped out of the spring and ran into the room, ignoring the water she was dripping all over the floor. She threw her arms around the timid man, who stiffened at the abrupt display of affection, then relaxed enough to put his arms around her lightly in return, releasing her quickly.
"Hello everyone." He said, fidgeting. "Mother said you were here, and I thought I'd come say hello."
"We're so glad you did!" Tohru said. "How are you?"
"I'm doing as well as can be expected, thank you." He said. "My courses in the college are almost finished, and I'm going to start helping mother run the resort next year."
"That's wonderful news." Yuki said, smiling gently at him. "Are you enjoying the classes?"
"Yes, they're very interesting." Ritsu said, looking a bit less intimidated. "Well, I should really be going. Mother said I shouldn't stay very long, since you're newly weds and all."
"Nonsense." Yuki said. "We're glad you came to visit us."
"Right!" Tohru said.
"Thank you very much." Ritsu said, blushing. "But I really should be going."
"So soon?" Tohru asked, disappointed. "Can you join us for dinner?"
"Oh, I couldn't do that!" Ritsu said, looking shocked. "This is your honeymoon, you don't need a worthless person like me intruding!"
"It's not intruding if we ask." Yuki said, smiling.
"Please say you will!" Tohru said, grabbing his hand. "We haven't seen you since New Year, 'cause you were away when we had the wedding."
"I know, and I'm sorry." He said, looking like he was ready to cry. "I didn't mean to miss your wedding, but my professor had us go to Kyoto that week to intern in a business, I couldn't get out of it."
"And you shouldn't! School is very important!" Tohru said, smiling. "But if you want to make it up to us, you can join us for dinner!"
Kyo snorted from the water, where he had been watching the proceedings. "Better say yes." He called out to the poor monkey. "They won't let up until you do."
"All-all right." Ritsu said, looking worried. "Are you sure I won't be intruding?"
"Positive." Tohru said, nodding. "Would you like to come here?"
"If you don't mind." Ritsu said, looking timid again. "I don't like to go to the main dining room. It makes me nervous."
"That's fine." Yuki said. "Would seven be convenient for you?"
"Only if it is for you!" Ritsu said quickly. "I don't want to be a bother!"
"Its' not a bother at all! Tohru said, beaming. "We'll see you at seven!"
"All right." Ritsu said, biting his lip. "I'll see you later." He bowed and left, closing the door behind him. Yuki and Tohru rejoined Kyo in the water. "I'm impressed." Kyo said, resting his head on a rock. "He didn't apologize once."
"He's been working on it." Yuki said, smiling. "I think he's greatly improved."
* * *
They relaxed in the water, talking until about six thirty, then got out and got dressed. Promptly at seven, Ritsu knocked on the door. He was wringing his hands anxiously. "I'm sorry, but I forgot about a previous engagement, would you mind if I didn't eat with you tonight?"
"Not at all, but why?" Tohru asked curiously.
Ritsu blushed. "M-my friend Ayaka is coming over to meet my mother tonight, and I promised to have dinner with her." He said, twiddling his fingers.
A look of shock spread over the face of the three newly weds. "Friend?" Tohru asked.
"As in girl friend?" Kyo asked incredulously.
Ritsu blushed a bright red and nodded. "I've been seeing her for about four months."
"That's wonderful news." Yuki said, smiling at the timid monkey. "We'd like to meet her, when it's convenient."
"All right." Ritsu said, smiling a bit. "I think I'd better go, she's coming at seven thirty."
"Bye Ritsu!" Tohru said, smiling. Ritsu smiled back waved before exiting the hut. They could hear him running down the path before he was out of earshot.
"I think he's smitten." Yuki said, his eyes twinkling.
"I think I'm hungry." Kyo said, not caring one way or another about Ritsu's love life. "Can we order dinner now?"
Tohru laughed. "Ok, I'm a little hungry, too." She said, picking up the phone. "How does oden sound?"
"Sounds good to me." Kyo said. "I'm gonna go take a shower, let me know when the food gets here." He picked up a clean towel and headed for the bathroom, grabbing some clean clothes on the way.
Tohru went over to the fireplace and started to stack logs in the grate, then lit a fire, sighing happily when she saw the flames jumping in the hearth, sending flickering shadows over the walls.
"Are you cold?" Yuki asked, concerned. "I could close the door, if you want."
"No, that's ok." Tohru said. "I'm not cold. I just like the look of a fire, it's so pretty."
"It is." Yuki said, sitting down beside her. They heard the water shut off in the bathroom, and the curtain pull back. Minutes later, Kyo joined them in front of the fire. It got darker and darker in the house. Dinner came and went, with very little conversation between the three. They just relaxed in front of the fire, enjoying the peace. No chores, no responsibilities, nothing but quiet, for two more whole days.
At about ten o'clock Tohru stood, stretching. "I think I'm going to go to bed." She said, smiling at the other two. "That warm bath and dinner put me right to sleep."
"I think I'll join you." Yuki said. "I'm drowsy too."
"I think I'll stay up a little longer." Kyo said. "I'll come to bed in a minute."
"Ok." Tohru said. She went to the chest and got her pajamas, then headed for the bathroom to brush her teeth. Yuki got his and waited outside for her to finish, then went in himself. While he occupied himself in the bathroom, Tohru turned the bed down and crawled in, sighing happily at the feeling of the thick down comforter enfolding her.
Yuki came out and joined her under the covers, on the left side, as he always did. "This is a very comfortable bed." He said, tucking the blankets closer around them.
"Uh huh!" Tohru said, snuggling further down into the blankets. Yuki smiled and pulled her to him, cuddling with her. She looked over at the fire, where Kyo was lying on his side, head propped up on one fist. "Are you coming to bed, Kyo?"
"In a minute." He said, looking over his shoulder. "I think I'm gonna take another bath."
Tohru frowned. "But.I don't think I can sleep." She said, biting her lip.
"Huh? Why?" Kyo asked, looking surprised.
"I'm used to sleeping with both of you, I can't sleep if you're not here too." She said, blushing.
Kyo looked shocked, then his eyes warmed and a little smile tugged at the corners of his mouth. "Fine." He said, trying to sound irritated. "Lemme get my pajamas." He hauled himself to his feet and went to the bathroom to complete his nightly rituals, then crawled into bed beside Tohru, who was spooned against Yuki.
She smiled happily. "Thank you, Kyo." She said. "Goodnight." She pecked him on the lips, then turned to peck Yuki too. They returned the kiss and pulled her more tightly between them, wrapping their arms around her tightly.
"You know, we never opened that package." Yuki said. "I think I put it outside, actually."
"Leave it there." Kyo said, half asleep already. "It's not important."
"But what if it rains?" Tohru said, sitting up. "We better go get it, it'll only take a second." She got out of bed and went outside, picking up the brightly wrapped package and carrying it back to the bed, where she crawled back between the two boys, shivering. "It's cold out there!" Tohru said, rubbing her arms. When she had warmed up a bit, she smiled at Yuki and Kyo. "Do one of you want to open it?"
"Nah, go ahead." Kyo said, sitting up and propping himself up on his elbow. "It's probably somethin' complimentary from the resort."
"But it's still fun to get presents!" She said, smiling at him. He snorted and gestured for her to open the gift, which she did with gusto. "Oh, a book!" she said, looking at the tag. "It's from Shigure!"
Kyo and Yuki were on instant alert. "May I see that book, Tohru?" Yuki asked. She handed it to him and he looked at the title. A deep blush spread over his face and he put the book hurriedly under the bed. "You don't want to read that." He said flatly.
"What is it?" Tohru asked, frowning.
"The Karma Sutra." Yuki said, frowning. "Remind me to have a talk with Shigure when I get home."
"Not before I get to him." Kyo said, scowling fiercely.
"What's that?" Tohru asked.
"It's a book for.married people." Yuki said, blushing.
Tohru looked at him, blushing. "Oh." She said quietly.
"Don't worry." Yuki said. "We aren't going to ask anything of you that you don't want to give." He said, stroking her hair.
"Ok." Tohru said, plucking at the bedspread. "Um, can I ask you to kiss me again?" She asked, her face a bright red.
Yuki and Kyo smiled. "Believe me, that's not a problem." Kyo said, pulling her towards him and laying his lips on hers. They kissed slowly, just enjoying being together, then Yuki cleared his throat and Tohru pulled away to turn in his direction. Before she could even catch her breath, he had his lips pressed against hers. Kyo lay beside the couple, getting his breath back. Finally, he couldn't take it anymore. He reached forward and pulled the neck of Tohru's pajamas away from her shoulder, laying soft, open-mouthed kisses against the skin.
Tohru broke the kiss with Yuki to gasp and look over her shoulder at Kyo, who stopped after one last kiss. "Do you want me to stop?" He asked, his voice husky.
"N-no." she said, a blush highlighting her cheekbones. "It-it felt.good."
Kyo's eyes darkened a shade. "It did?" he asked, running his finger down the exposed skin. "Do you want me to do it again?" He swallowed hard when she nodded and lowered his head to the patch of skin, running his lips over it gently. Tohru shivered and closed her eyes, then opened them to look at Yuki, who was watching with a strange expression on his face.
"Yuki?" She asked in a small voice. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." He said, reaching forward. His hands hovered over her pajama top buttons. "May I?" he asked, tugging on her top button. She nodded shyly. He tugged on the top two buttons, exposing the shoulder opposite the one Kyo was kissing. He slowly started to lay kisses down her unoccupied shoulder, listening to the little gasps she let out when he or Kyo hit a particular spot.
Kyo lifted his head and looked at Yuki, who nodded. They laid her back on the bed and unbuttoned the rest of her top, pulling it off her shoulders and exposing her bare torso to their gaze. "Can we keep going?" Kyo asked, running a hand down her arm. She shivered and nodded, not exactly sure where they were going, but they were being so careful with her, and it felt so nice.
* * * Finally, it was over. Yuki collapsed next to her, withdrawing from her still spasming passage while Kyo rolled over closer to her, pulling her damp body closer to him and resting his head on her breast. Yuki snuggled closer to her as well, wrapping his arms around her waist and resting his head on her other breast. They drifted into sleep, still breathing heavily and completely wrapped up in each other.
If you want to read the lemon, go to adultfanfiction.net, then anime/cartoons, then fruits basket. It is under the same title.
"It's very nice, Tohru." Kagura said, peek around. "So pretty and spacious! And the furniture fits the rooms so well!"
"I know. It feels like they've been living here for years." Hatori said, smiling at Tohru. "I think Tohru could make anywhere a home."
Tohru blushed a bright red at the compliment and started waving her hands frantically. Kyo looked up from across the room and smirked. He made his way over to where Tohru was frantically babbling about how she had NOTHING to do with the house, it was all Yuki and Kyo's idea. He put his hands on her shoulders, effectively halting her frantic protests. "I think I'm making a new rule." He whispered in her ear, making her shiver. "When you act all modest, I'm gonna do the same thing I do when you're apologizing." She blushed a furious ruby red at the reminder, causing Kyo to grin and the others to wonder what the heck he had said to the poor rice ball.
"I'm sorry." She said, eyes white. "I didn't mean." She clamped her hands over her mouth, hoping Kyo hadn't noticed her little slip. The unholy grin on his face told her he had, and he was going to make her pay for it. He glanced at the small group of people around them. Hatori and Kagura he wasn't too worried about, but if he did anything in front of Ayame, well, it wouldn't be pretty.
"I'll collect later." He whispered in her ear, causing her to shiver again. He strolled off, smiling.
"WHAT did he say to you?" Ayame asked, deeply amused. "You look like you just took a swim in red paint!"
Tohru put her hands to her cheeks. "Nothing!" She said hastily. They looked at each other, but didn't argue.
"We should probably start home." Hatori said, looking at his watch. "It's late, and they have to be up early to get to the train on time." The others agreed and said their goodbyes to the trio, who had escorted their guests to the door. Once the last person had left they slid the door shut with a sigh of relief.
"Well, that was a nightmare." Yuki sighed. "How did it turn into a party, anyway?"
"Hell if I know." Kyo said, scowling. "I just called Hatori and asked him ta come up and help us get that crib up, and he brought the whole damn motley crew."
"Well, it was a nice surprise." Tohru said, smiling. "Will one of you clean up this room while the other helps me with the dishes?"
"I'll work in here." Kyo said, and started picking up the cups that had been left lying everywhere. Tohru took them from him and carried them to the kitchen, where she started washing while Yuki dried and put them away. After the dishes were finished, Tohru went upstairs and checked on Kisho, while Yuki and Kyo made sure everything was locked up for the night. Once the lights were all out downstairs, the boys went upstairs, where Tohru was sitting at the dressing table, brushing her hair for the night. A lamp in the corner was the only light in the large room.

Kyo sighed and got his pajamas out of the dresser. "I'm so tired I think I'll fall asleep in the shower." He said, heading for the bathroom.
"Is Kisho still sleeping?" Yuki asked, standing behind Tohru, who was still brushing her hair. He took the brush from her hand and took over the task, running his fingers through the strands he had just brushed.
Tohru's eyes drifted closed. She had always enjoyed having her hair brushed. "Uh huh." She said dreamily. "He'll probably sleep until morning. He's gotten better about that."
"I've noticed." Yuki said. "He's four months old now, right?"
"Yes. He's really a good baby." She shivered when he put the brush down on the table and started braiding her hair, tugging lightly on her scalp and sending tingles all the way down to her toes.
Kyo came out of the bathroom and tossed his dirty clothes in the wicker hamper by the door. He glanced at Yuki, who had just tied off Tohru's hair. Tohru still had her eyes closed, completely relaxed. He grinned and snuck over, gesturing for Yuki to step aside. The rat frowned, but did as asked.
Kyo ran his fingers gently over her scalp, causing goose bumps to rise on her skin. He leaned down and inhaled the faint fragrance of roses in her hair, then whispered in her ear, "I think it's time to collect on that little apology earlier."
Tohru jumped and turned, only to have her lips collide with his. Yuki smirked and got his pajamas out of the closet, then sat on the bed to wait for them to finish so he could have his bath.
It took a while. Kyo was determined to break her of the apologizing habit, and if he enjoyed the various.punishments.then that was ok too. He brought his hands up to cup the back of her head, lacing his fingers through her braid and scratching her scalp lightly with his nails, just enough to send shivers down her spine. She whimpered into his mouth, taking the initiative and deepening the kiss first. Kyo moaned and slid one hand farther down to wrap around her waist while the other still cupped her head. He bent her backwards slightly, delving into her mouth like a child trying to get the last bit of ice cream from a cone. They finally broke apart and sat back up, chests rising and falling rapidly. Tohru's eyes were dark cobalt, an attractive blush spreading over her cheekbones, while Kyo's eyes were glowing slightly.
"Are you finished?" Yuki asked dryly, standing to head for the bathroom. "I wanted to take a bath, if you could keep your hands to yourself." He looked back over his shoulder and smirked.

She draped one arm over the one on his waist and stuck the other under her pillow.
A few more minutes and Yuki came out as well, drying his hair vigorously with a towel. He tossed it into the hamper as well, then climbed into bed on the right. He scooted close to Tohru and lifted her head slightly off the pillow, and kissed her full on the lips. She was completely shocked, and opened her mouth to gasp, allowing Yuki to dart in and take control. He ran his tongue over every inch of her mouth, plundering and possessing. She sighed into his mouth and let him do what he wanted, occasionally making little forays into his mouth as well, drawing moans from the silver haired boy.
Kyo groaned to himself. They had never done this before, one of them holding her while the other one kissed her. For some reason, it didn't bother him. Maybe the slight undulation that had her rubbing against him like a cat had something to do with it too. He groaned again when she rubbed her bottom against his groin, calling a particular part of him to attention. He wrapped his arms more firmly around her, pulling her more tightly against him. "Tohru, please, stop moving." He said through gritted teeth, doing his best to keep his promise about not moving forward faster than she wished to go.
Yuki broke the kiss slowly, breathing heavily. He darted his tongue out and licked her upper lip one more time before tucking her head under his chin. "I'd better stop, or I won't be able to." He said, his voice huskier than usual. He could feel the heat of her face against his skin, her warm breath panting against his chest. He groaned and ran his hand over her hair, eventually soothing her to sleep. For the boys, however, sleep came much later.

"Welcome back." The hot spring hostess said, leaning heavily against the gate as she opened it for her three guests. "I'm so glad you decided to spend your honeymoon at our humble resort."
"Thank you!" Tohru said, smiling at her. "I was so excited when I heard we were coming back for the whole weekend!"
"Thank you." Said the hostess, smiling at her. "I'm afraid Ritsu isn't here at the moment, he his out shopping. I will have him come say hello when he gets back, if you like."
"Yes please!" She said, smiling happily. Behind her, Yuki and Kyo shifted, holding both their bags and hers. "Oh, may we be shown to our room please?" She asked, sending them an apologetic look. They smiled at her.
"Of course." The hostess said, leading them to a small house on the far side of the resort. "This is our honeymoon suite. I hope everything is to your liking." She opened the doors and stepped to the side, so the three could precede her into the room. Tohru sighed happily. It was a simple room, but very elegant at the same time. The bed was western style and took up a large part of the room, standing in the corner. Drapes could seal it off from the rest of the room, while a small clothing chest was at it's foot. The wall directly across the room had a large stone fireplace, with a small table set in front, a wrapped box sitting on it. Soft mats covered the floor. A small curtained alcove led to a small bathroom, with a toilet, sink, and shower. There was a door in the back, which the hostess opened, showing a luxurious private hot spring. A tall fence separated it from the rest of the resort, with bamboo and other plants growing nearby, creating an oasis. A small box just outside the door held clean, white towels with a separate box for the used ones.
"It's so pretty!" Tohru said, eyes shining.
"I'm glad you like it." The hostess said, smiling. "I'll leave you alone now. If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask." She pointed to a phone in the corner of the room. "That's how you can contact someone from the staff. Just hit the star, and it will connect you. The present is from your brother, young Master Yuki." With one last bow, she left them alone.
Yuki stared at the package suspiciously. "I'm almost afraid to open this." He said, poking it.
"I'm not gonna." Kyo said, frowning at it.
"We can always save it for later." Tohru said, smiling. "What do you two think of the room?"
"Pretty nice." Kyo said, glancing around. "That water looks good."
"It does." Tohru said, glancing at it with longing. "Does anyone else want a bath?"
"I think I would." Yuki said. "Do you want towels, or swim suits?"
"Um, can we wear swim suits?" She asked, blushing. "At least this first time?"
"Of course." Yuki said, smiling. He went to his suitcase and pulled his trunks out, while Kyo and Tohru did the same. "We'll change out here, you can use the bathroom." He said, pushing her into the tiny room and pulling the curtain closed behind her.
It took her a little longer to change than them, so they took the time to unpack their belongings and stare at the package, wondering just what was in it.
"I'm not sure I wanna know." Kyo said, glancing at Yuki.
"We have to open it eventually." Yuki sighed. "It would be rude to refuse a gift."
"Even if it's from your no good brother?" Kyo asked, frowning.
"Even then." Yuki said, smirking. He turned at the sound of the curtain being pulled back and smiled appreciatively. "You look lovely, Tohru."
Tohru, who was clad in a one-piece suit that was the exact shade of her eyes, blushed. "Thank you." She said shyly. She carried her discarded clothing over to the chest and folded it neatly before putting it inside. She stepped past the two boys, who were just watching her, and dipped her foot in the spring, sighing happily at the temperature. She stepped slowly in the water, sitting comfortably on a submerged bench that kept the warm water at chin level. She looked over at Yuki and Kyo, who were standing at the water's edge. "Come on in!" She said, smiling at them. "I don't want to be in here by myself."
"We're coming." Yuki said, smiling. He dipped his foot into the water just as she had and nodded approvingly before stepping in himself. He sighed as the water closed about him, the heat driving any and all tension from his muscles. Kyo joined them a moment later, after getting all three of them towels from the box and dropping them on the clean stones that lined the spring.
"This is so nice." Tohru said, wetting a rag in cold water and putting it on her head to counteract the heat. "Thank you for bringing me here."
"It was our pleasure." Yuki said. "What do you want to do after dinner?"
"Well, I'd like to go back to the game room." She said, looking thoughtful. "I think I'd like to try playing ping pong again." She blushed. "Maybe I'll actually be able to hit the ball this time!"
Yuki and Kyo chuckled. "We'll teach you how to play." Yuki said, smiling. "It's not hard." He looked up, surprised, as a light tap was heard on their door. "Who could that be?" He wondered aloud, stepping out of the tub. He wrapped the towel around his waist and went to answer the door. Ritsu stood there, wringing his hands, looking like he was going to run.
"Ritsu!" Tohru said, beaming. She stepped out of the spring and ran into the room, ignoring the water she was dripping all over the floor. She threw her arms around the timid man, who stiffened at the abrupt display of affection, then relaxed enough to put his arms around her lightly in return, releasing her quickly.
"Hello everyone." He said, fidgeting. "Mother said you were here, and I thought I'd come say hello."
"We're so glad you did!" Tohru said. "How are you?"
"I'm doing as well as can be expected, thank you." He said. "My courses in the college are almost finished, and I'm going to start helping mother run the resort next year."
"That's wonderful news." Yuki said, smiling gently at him. "Are you enjoying the classes?"
"Yes, they're very interesting." Ritsu said, looking a bit less intimidated. "Well, I should really be going. Mother said I shouldn't stay very long, since you're newly weds and all."
"Nonsense." Yuki said. "We're glad you came to visit us."
"Right!" Tohru said.
"Thank you very much." Ritsu said, blushing. "But I really should be going."
"So soon?" Tohru asked, disappointed. "Can you join us for dinner?"
"Oh, I couldn't do that!" Ritsu said, looking shocked. "This is your honeymoon, you don't need a worthless person like me intruding!"
"It's not intruding if we ask." Yuki said, smiling.
"Please say you will!" Tohru said, grabbing his hand. "We haven't seen you since New Year, 'cause you were away when we had the wedding."
"I know, and I'm sorry." He said, looking like he was ready to cry. "I didn't mean to miss your wedding, but my professor had us go to Kyoto that week to intern in a business, I couldn't get out of it."
"And you shouldn't! School is very important!" Tohru said, smiling. "But if you want to make it up to us, you can join us for dinner!"
Kyo snorted from the water, where he had been watching the proceedings. "Better say yes." He called out to the poor monkey. "They won't let up until you do."
"All-all right." Ritsu said, looking worried. "Are you sure I won't be intruding?"
"Positive." Tohru said, nodding. "Would you like to come here?"
"If you don't mind." Ritsu said, looking timid again. "I don't like to go to the main dining room. It makes me nervous."
"That's fine." Yuki said. "Would seven be convenient for you?"
"Only if it is for you!" Ritsu said quickly. "I don't want to be a bother!"
"Its' not a bother at all! Tohru said, beaming. "We'll see you at seven!"
"All right." Ritsu said, biting his lip. "I'll see you later." He bowed and left, closing the door behind him. Yuki and Tohru rejoined Kyo in the water. "I'm impressed." Kyo said, resting his head on a rock. "He didn't apologize once."
"He's been working on it." Yuki said, smiling. "I think he's greatly improved."
* * *
They relaxed in the water, talking until about six thirty, then got out and got dressed. Promptly at seven, Ritsu knocked on the door. He was wringing his hands anxiously. "I'm sorry, but I forgot about a previous engagement, would you mind if I didn't eat with you tonight?"
"Not at all, but why?" Tohru asked curiously.
Ritsu blushed. "M-my friend Ayaka is coming over to meet my mother tonight, and I promised to have dinner with her." He said, twiddling his fingers.
A look of shock spread over the face of the three newly weds. "Friend?" Tohru asked.
"As in girl friend?" Kyo asked incredulously.
Ritsu blushed a bright red and nodded. "I've been seeing her for about four months."
"That's wonderful news." Yuki said, smiling at the timid monkey. "We'd like to meet her, when it's convenient."
"All right." Ritsu said, smiling a bit. "I think I'd better go, she's coming at seven thirty."
"Bye Ritsu!" Tohru said, smiling. Ritsu smiled back waved before exiting the hut. They could hear him running down the path before he was out of earshot.
"I think he's smitten." Yuki said, his eyes twinkling.
"I think I'm hungry." Kyo said, not caring one way or another about Ritsu's love life. "Can we order dinner now?"
Tohru laughed. "Ok, I'm a little hungry, too." She said, picking up the phone. "How does oden sound?"
"Sounds good to me." Kyo said. "I'm gonna go take a shower, let me know when the food gets here." He picked up a clean towel and headed for the bathroom, grabbing some clean clothes on the way.
Tohru went over to the fireplace and started to stack logs in the grate, then lit a fire, sighing happily when she saw the flames jumping in the hearth, sending flickering shadows over the walls.
"Are you cold?" Yuki asked, concerned. "I could close the door, if you want."
"No, that's ok." Tohru said. "I'm not cold. I just like the look of a fire, it's so pretty."
"It is." Yuki said, sitting down beside her. They heard the water shut off in the bathroom, and the curtain pull back. Minutes later, Kyo joined them in front of the fire. It got darker and darker in the house. Dinner came and went, with very little conversation between the three. They just relaxed in front of the fire, enjoying the peace. No chores, no responsibilities, nothing but quiet, for two more whole days.
At about ten o'clock Tohru stood, stretching. "I think I'm going to go to bed." She said, smiling at the other two. "That warm bath and dinner put me right to sleep."
"I think I'll join you." Yuki said. "I'm drowsy too."
"I think I'll stay up a little longer." Kyo said. "I'll come to bed in a minute."
"Ok." Tohru said. She went to the chest and got her pajamas, then headed for the bathroom to brush her teeth. Yuki got his and waited outside for her to finish, then went in himself. While he occupied himself in the bathroom, Tohru turned the bed down and crawled in, sighing happily at the feeling of the thick down comforter enfolding her.
Yuki came out and joined her under the covers, on the left side, as he always did. "This is a very comfortable bed." He said, tucking the blankets closer around them.
"Uh huh!" Tohru said, snuggling further down into the blankets. Yuki smiled and pulled her to him, cuddling with her. She looked over at the fire, where Kyo was lying on his side, head propped up on one fist. "Are you coming to bed, Kyo?"
"In a minute." He said, looking over his shoulder. "I think I'm gonna take another bath."
Tohru frowned. "But.I don't think I can sleep." She said, biting her lip.
"Huh? Why?" Kyo asked, looking surprised.
"I'm used to sleeping with both of you, I can't sleep if you're not here too." She said, blushing.
Kyo looked shocked, then his eyes warmed and a little smile tugged at the corners of his mouth. "Fine." He said, trying to sound irritated. "Lemme get my pajamas." He hauled himself to his feet and went to the bathroom to complete his nightly rituals, then crawled into bed beside Tohru, who was spooned against Yuki.
She smiled happily. "Thank you, Kyo." She said. "Goodnight." She pecked him on the lips, then turned to peck Yuki too. They returned the kiss and pulled her more tightly between them, wrapping their arms around her tightly.
"You know, we never opened that package." Yuki said. "I think I put it outside, actually."
"Leave it there." Kyo said, half asleep already. "It's not important."
"But what if it rains?" Tohru said, sitting up. "We better go get it, it'll only take a second." She got out of bed and went outside, picking up the brightly wrapped package and carrying it back to the bed, where she crawled back between the two boys, shivering. "It's cold out there!" Tohru said, rubbing her arms. When she had warmed up a bit, she smiled at Yuki and Kyo. "Do one of you want to open it?"
"Nah, go ahead." Kyo said, sitting up and propping himself up on his elbow. "It's probably somethin' complimentary from the resort."
"But it's still fun to get presents!" She said, smiling at him. He snorted and gestured for her to open the gift, which she did with gusto. "Oh, a book!" she said, looking at the tag. "It's from Shigure!"
Kyo and Yuki were on instant alert. "May I see that book, Tohru?" Yuki asked. She handed it to him and he looked at the title. A deep blush spread over his face and he put the book hurriedly under the bed. "You don't want to read that." He said flatly.
"What is it?" Tohru asked, frowning.
"The Karma Sutra." Yuki said, frowning. "Remind me to have a talk with Shigure when I get home."
"Not before I get to him." Kyo said, scowling fiercely.
"What's that?" Tohru asked.
"It's a book for.married people." Yuki said, blushing.
Tohru looked at him, blushing. "Oh." She said quietly.
"Don't worry." Yuki said. "We aren't going to ask anything of you that you don't want to give." He said, stroking her hair.
"Ok." Tohru said, plucking at the bedspread. "Um, can I ask you to kiss me again?" She asked, her face a bright red.
Yuki and Kyo smiled. "Believe me, that's not a problem." Kyo said, pulling her towards him and laying his lips on hers. They kissed slowly, just enjoying being together, then Yuki cleared his throat and Tohru pulled away to turn in his direction. Before she could even catch her breath, he had his lips pressed against hers. Kyo lay beside the couple, getting his breath back. Finally, he couldn't take it anymore. He reached forward and pulled the neck of Tohru's pajamas away from her shoulder, laying soft, open-mouthed kisses against the skin.
Tohru broke the kiss with Yuki to gasp and look over her shoulder at Kyo, who stopped after one last kiss. "Do you want me to stop?" He asked, his voice husky.
"N-no." she said, a blush highlighting her cheekbones. "It-it felt.good."
Kyo's eyes darkened a shade. "It did?" he asked, running his finger down the exposed skin. "Do you want me to do it again?" He swallowed hard when she nodded and lowered his head to the patch of skin, running his lips over it gently. Tohru shivered and closed her eyes, then opened them to look at Yuki, who was watching with a strange expression on his face.
"Yuki?" She asked in a small voice. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." He said, reaching forward. His hands hovered over her pajama top buttons. "May I?" he asked, tugging on her top button. She nodded shyly. He tugged on the top two buttons, exposing the shoulder opposite the one Kyo was kissing. He slowly started to lay kisses down her unoccupied shoulder, listening to the little gasps she let out when he or Kyo hit a particular spot.
Kyo lifted his head and looked at Yuki, who nodded. They laid her back on the bed and unbuttoned the rest of her top, pulling it off her shoulders and exposing her bare torso to their gaze. "Can we keep going?" Kyo asked, running a hand down her arm. She shivered and nodded, not exactly sure where they were going, but they were being so careful with her, and it felt so nice.
* * * Finally, it was over. Yuki collapsed next to her, withdrawing from her still spasming passage while Kyo rolled over closer to her, pulling her damp body closer to him and resting his head on her breast. Yuki snuggled closer to her as well, wrapping his arms around her waist and resting his head on her other breast. They drifted into sleep, still breathing heavily and completely wrapped up in each other.
