The Ainu and the Tao
Normal P. O. V.
Pirika walked out of the kitchen as soon as Yoh, Ryu, and Anna finished their little "story". She was ridden with guilt and heartache. Ren would never like after what she had done… She had to apologize, she just had to.
Pirika walked into the hall of Ren's room, and saw Horo Horo walking out.
"Onii-chan… I have to talk to Ren…" stammered Pirika. "May I…?"
Horokeu Usui P. O. V.
Well… This is it. She's letting it be up to me.
I can't help but feel torn right now. I love my little imouto-chan very much, but I know if I let her pass and apologize, she and Ren will become a couple. I've seen the way they look at each other. It's not as obvious as some other things, but it's definitely there. Ren does in fact love her, that much I know. Very much, if my opinion means anything.
I hope I am making the right choice.

"Alright… Good luck…" said Horo Horo as he walked past his sister.
Pirika gulped, and stood in front of Ren's doorway. By now, Bason had informed Ren of her presence, if the spirit was paying attention that is. With a shaky breath, Pirika slid the door open and stepped inside, sliding the door shut, very slowly.
Pirika saw Ren sitting on his futon, his bare back to her, showing her the markings on his back.
"Ren…?" stammered Pirika as she tentatively walked over and sat down behind him.
"Yes, Pirika?" asked Ren softly, a gentle version of his normally arrogant tongue.
"Um… Ren, I didn't know…" said Pirika.
"Hm?" was all she got out of him.
"All I knew was your dad wasn't the best of dads…" said Pirika softly. "I mean, I never had a dad at all, so I wouldn't know the difference between a good one and a bad one and I didn't mean to say that, I was just mad and-"
"Pirika-chan…" said Ren quietly, and softly.
"Y-Yes…?" stammered Pirika. Ren let out a small chuckle.
"You are rambling." Said Ren. Pirika giggled.
"Am I forgiven?" asked Pirika. "Because I am very sorry, I would never purposefully hurt someone I love like that, I just didn't know."
Ren's back stiffened and Pirika clapped a hand over her mouth when she realized what she had said.
"W-What…?" spluttered Ren. Pirika sighed, and scooted a little closer and whispered in his ear.
"Aishiteru." Whispered Pirika softly. As she pulled her head away from Ren's ear, she saw a small smile on his face. It was a happy smile, Pirika could tell.
"I… Me too…" spluttered Ren. Pirika smiled and hugged him from behind.
"I love you Ren-kun, and I am so so sorry for what I said…" said Pirika. Ren turned around and hugged her close to him, both of them enjoying their first hug. Ren tentatively pulled away and stared into Pirika's aqua orbs. They were silent for a few moment.
"Pirika-chan…" stammered Ren tentatively. He opened his mouth, closed it, and opened it again.
"Yes, you can kiss me…" said Pirika, a small blush gracing her face.
Ren leaned into her head, because she was nervous, and slowly kissed her. After pulling away, they smiled and stood up. Ren pulled on his shirt, and Pirika put on a pout.
"What's wrong?" asked Ren as he tied the knots in the front.
"I like you better without it…" mock pouted Pirika. Ren smiled and chuckled, and hand in hand, they went back to dinner.
End Chapter Three
Sevetenks: So…? Did U all like it? Well, review please! And as you know, if you read the first note, this might be the last chapter, but I am tinkering with something in Horo's POV as the epilogue. Well, even so, it was good, ne?
