Chapter Four: Half-truths.

Since the day Naru and the girls talked, everything for Keitaro was perfect. The girls didn't hit him, they have let him use the hot springs and even helped him with the chores. Also Keitaro's "accidents" occurred less. But as usual winds of change blew near Hinata

- I'm finally back. The good thing about Hinata is that everything remains the same as you left-

Kitsune has come back from her trip, and was on the stairway of the dorm.

"Kitsune is back!"

Su yelled very happy. She liked the way Hinata was now, but it was more fun the way it was before and she was sure Kitsune will find a way to change it back.

"Kitsune is back!"

Su ran to greet Kitsune. The rest of the girls came out to see why Su was yelling.

"Su, what is going... Kitsune!"

"Hey girls, I'm back"

All the girls ran to greet her. After they finish with the greetings, they headed back to the dorm.

"So tell me, where our landlord is?"

"Urashima-san went to visit Haruka-san"

-Did Motoko called Keitaro, Urashima-san? –

"That reminds me I have to make the special dinner I promised him"

- Naru cooking for Keitaro! No that can be -

"Don't worry Naru-sempai, my cooking bot will make dinner right away"

"Thank you Su. I'm sure Keitaro won't mind"

"Su, What do you say about a cooking bot? What happened with your mechatamas?"

"I don't need them anymore"

Since Su couldn't test them on Keitaro, the fun of making them was gone. So she decided to invent things more useful.

-Did she say she doesn't need them anymore? What is going on? ... I get it now-

"Very funny girls, I know I went for two weeks and didn't call you much. In fact I only called once, but I was very busy. But this joke is getting out of hand"

The rest of the girls were giving confused looks at each other.

"Joke, what joke?"

Kitsune was about to answer when the arrival of Keitaro interrupted her.

"Hey Kitsune, how are you?"

Naru welcomed Keitaro with a Kiss in the cheek. This didn't amazed Kitsune, she had witnessed many times when Naru played with Keitaro. What really amazed her was the reaction of Keitaro, or better said that he didn't react at all.

-What? He should be running like a madman or at least blushing. But he is just standing there like that was the most normal thing on earth-

"So Kitsune tell us, how was your trip"

"That can wait for another time, fist tell me what happened here while I was gone"

"Let's get seated this will take time"

After everyone was seat in the common room, Keitaro began to tell Kitsune all about the weird events that happened and how now everything was fine.

"That's really amazing. I think we should have a party to celebrate"

"Yes, Su likes parties"

"Yes I think it's a good Idea. Let's get everything ready"

The party was organized in less than ten minutes as usual. All of them were drinking and eating the food Shinobu had made.

"Keitaro you didn't mention how did you ask Naru to be your girlfriend"

- I was hoping she wouldn't ask-

"Well I, uh ..."

"What about you Naru?"

"I think Keitaro should tell you... if he wants to"

"Please, sempai tell us"

Begged Shinobu making the most cute puppy eyes Keitaro had ever watched.

- No the puppy eyes -

"Ok, I'll tell you"

Keitaro began to remember how it happened.

=========================== Flash Back ============================

They fell from the roof and luckily landed on some bushes.

"Why do you try to stop me?"

Asked a confused Naru.

"Do you have to ask? Is for the same reason as you"

"What do you mean?"

"I rather not to live than to live without you"

"You mean it"

"Of course I do, with all my heart"

They stay there in silence until Keitaro finally decided to speak.

"So that means you are my girlfriend"

"No"

Keitaro stood up from the bushes shocked.

"What! What do you mean?"

"That I'm not your girlfriend... since you haven't asked me"

"Then I'm going to ask you now"

Keitaro paused for a moment thinking of the best words and then continued.

"Naru Narusegawa would you do me the happiest man on earth by accepting to be my girlfriend?"

"Of course I will"

Then they kissed to seal their relationship.

=========================== Flash Back ============================

"Earth to Keitaro"

"Sorry I get lost in my thinking"

"Ok, now are you going to tell us?"

"Yes"

Keitaro turned to Naru and winked

"Well since Naru told me she loved me, I was thinking in a way to ask her to be my girlfriend"

He stopped to look at Naru and gave her a smile.

"But you know I don't have much experience in that area so it took a me week to finally decide what to tell her"

- I hope they believed me, I can't tell them about the roof incident-

"So I just have to wait the perfect time to tell her..."

"You sure lack experience Keitaro. If she had told you that she loved you, why do you have to wait?"

"At the moment I didn't think of that, OK? Do you want me to tell you or not?"

"Ok, ok continue"

"As I was saying I was waiting for the perfect time. The last Friday Naru and I decided to go for a walk"

Keitaro stopped to see Naru's reaction. He was relieved that she had understood the wink. He decided to continue.

"We stopped at the sandbox, and began to remember all the things we go trough. The happy and sad moments, the problems we had"

"This is getting bored"

"Ok Su, I'll get to the point"

"Keitaro if you don't mind I want to finish the story"

"Of course Naru, you can finish it"

Keitaro was glad that Naru had decided to continue; he didn't like to lie to the girls. But Naru had a different idea; she wanted that the story had at least a bit of truth.

"When we were going back Keitaro asked me to stop, then he knelt down and took my hand"

She added that to the story too, but if Keitaro was telling a lie why don't tell a good one. Meanwhile Su had been acting the story with a embarrassed Shinobu.

"Su stop that"

"Why do you have to take the fun of everything?"

"Then Keitaro asked me 'Naru Narusegawa would you do me the happiest man on earth by accepting to be my girlfriend' and then I accepted "

"It wasn't that bad after all"

"Kitsune!"

"I was just joking. I have to admit that now everything seems fine for you Keitaro"

"Yes is all perfect, almost like a dream"

"It looks like the magic of Hinata has worked again"

-Magic... a dream...-

Then it hit him. His expression of joy was replaced for one of pure grief.

- That can't be, that can't be -

"Keitaro, are you ok?"

"I-I'm ..."

Without finishing Keitaro ran off, leaving the rest of the residents shocked.
