Hey, sorry that I have not been able to update as soon as I said I would be able to. I have good reasons why, school, homework, after school job, babysitting, and weekend job just to name a few (actually that all of them) sorry that the last chapter was so short, I wanted to put in sort of suspense thing.

Thanks to those of you who have reviewed so far, I really appreciate it.

Animefreakkagome-here it is.

Out of shoeboxes & Dictating- thank you so much for pointing that out to me, I didn't realize that I had actually done that, I just corrected that my spelling, so if it doesn't show up then my computer must be faulty or something. If I have any more mix up names, please let me know, and if that does happen then it is by pure accident or I cannot read my own handwriting.

Thank you again for review and taking the time to read my story.petting dog

Since I cannot just make a chapter of thank you, I had better type this chapter while it is fresh in my head. Kitty's name changes to Ryu in this chapter. Ryu means Dragon in Japanese; I thought it was perfect since I was born in the year of the Dragon. Go Dragons 


"What is he doing here; he can't possibly be the one to meet." She thought, with a surprise, panic-stricken, and nervous, feelings, and butterflies in her stomach.

As she/he walked toward him, she noticed that there were two other people with him holding a sign that said, RYU in big letters. "Well at least there are other people with him." He let out a relief before walking upto them.

"Hi, I am Ryu, nice to meet you." He said in a calm voice

"Hi, Ryu I'm Ashiya, welcome to Japan. smiles

"Hi" said the other two boys.

"Hi, nice to meet you both." He said as she bowed and blushed

"Oh, this is Sano and Nakatsu. They just tagged along to get out of class."

"We did not Ashiya, and plus spring break starts the day after tomorrow." Protested Nakatsu.

"You came just to meet your room mate other wise you won't have come." Sano stated.

"Did not"

"Did to"

"Will you two children stop arguing people are starting to stare" Ashiya said in an agitated and embarrassed voice. "They are not usually like this Ryu, but there is some truth in what Sano said." He said in forced calm voice

"Do you mean to say that I'm his room-mate?" He said in slight surprised voice.

"Yep, my old roommate had to move out because his parents wanted him to go to a public school or something like that, other wise you would have your own room." He said with a little grin on his face.

blush Ryu

"What are you blushing for?" asked Sano "it's not like you're a girl or anything, it's an all boy school" as he said that he side glanced down at Ashiya.

"We should be going its getting late." Ashiya Stated. "How many more bags do you have?"

"Just one other" He said, "My parents are going to ship the rest over later in the month."

"Okay, then lets go get it and get back to the dorm." Sano Stated.

The group went to the baggage claim area, got Ryu's bag, and then went to flag down a taxi to take them back to the dorm.

At the Dorm

"The school is a couple blocks away, but other then that everything is here at the dorm." Sano explained when they reached the Dorm.

"So this is the new transfer student," The dorms RA said in a bored but interested voice.

Nanba had black shoulder length hair, with a cute/dreamy face and a nice body (just guessing at that last one.)

"Yep, this is Ryu." Ashiya said with a smile.

"Well my name is Nanba, and I'm the dorm RA Since we are talking let me explain the dorm rules so I don't have to do it later."

He explained the rules as the group walk to rooms.

"Well that's all of them, catch you later" With that he turned around and left.

"We have enough time to make it down to dinner after you put your stuff in your room," Sano said when Nanba left.

They showed Ryu where his room was then headed back down for dinner before rest of the dorm residence headed down.

"I still can't believe my luck, I get to share a room Nakatsu, But what if he finds out that I'm a girlsweat drops, I can't let that happen. I just got here and I'm not going to leave," he said with a determined look on his face.

"Is there something wrong Ryu?" asked Ashiya.

"No, everything is fine. I was just thinking that just yesterday, I was in America but now I am in Japan. I guess it is just a little over whelming when I think about." He explained

"That's how was for me when I came here from America too. What grade are you in here? Ashiya asked

"I'm a junior. I didn't know that you were from America too, you don't look American, no offense or anything."

"Yeah I came over during my freshman year. I am full Japanese so I guess that I would not look like an American. How about you? He explained

"I'm only half Japanese."

"You don't look like an American." Nakatsu said as butted into the conversation.

"That's because I favor my dad's side more then I do my mom's side."

"Really that's weird. Any who we should head back up stairs. We'll want to be ready for the last day of school before spring break." Sano stated.

"Yeah, your right. We should get some sleep for tomorrow so we are ready. Ashiya said as he got up from the table that they were sitting at.

The others got up and they walked out.

"I thought you guys were kidding when you said that spring break started tomorrow" Ryu said, surprised.

"Nope" Sano yawned.

"Ashiya you have a letter" said the dorm manger said as the group passed by.

"Really, thanks." He walked over and got the letter before returning to the group while opening it.

"Whose is it from?" asked Sano

"It's from IO." He answered while reading.

"What does she want?" asked Nakatsu before Sano could ask.

"May I ask who she is?" asked Ryu.

Nakatsu was in the middle of explaining who IO was and what they did for her last summer when Ashiya's jaw dropped.

"What is it?" asked Sano in a concerned voice.


Well that is where I am going to leave it off for now. It is almost midnight and I have to get to bed. I hope you enjoyed it, thanks for reading.

It is longer then I expected to be but that is what happens when the ideas just pop into your head. I hope you people do not mind. It might take me awhile to update with everything else that is going on right. Hope you do not mind. Thanks again for reading, now if you would be so kind and review for me. Let me know if I should continue or if I should stop.

R&R thanks.
