chikan: pervert

Dis-a-cuh-laimer: I don't own it!

Previously...

Tohru thanked Hana and went into the kitchen. She decided she was going to make beef stew. While she was cooking, she felt two arms feel there way around her waist. She stopped stirring the contents of the pot in front of her for a moment. Then she relaxed as she realized who it was. She turned around and smiled up at him. "Kyou." she whispered. If it weren't for the fact that he could hear quite well still, he wouldn't have heard it.

He put on a small grin, a grin that was just for Tohru. She could feel her cheeks heat up. Then she remembered the stew. She abruptly turned around. Kyou almost fell backward with surprise. There was also the fact that the force of her turn had sent her hair flying and it hit him in the face despite their height difference. She started stirring the stew. He went up beside her, and put his hand around her waist...

Now…

"How's the stew coming along?" asked Hana, walking into the kitchen. Kyou instantly pulled his hand away from her, and shoved his hands into his pockets.

"Eh! Hana-chan! Do you need something?" asked Tohru. She was surprised at her friend's sudden presence.

"I just came to see how the stew was coming along." She said.

"Oh, it's uh, it's going to be done in a little while Hana!" Tohru said blushing.

"I'm going to the roof!" said Kyou. He didn't want Hana to see him blushing.

"Ok Kyou-chan! I'll call you down when it's done."

Kyou went to the roof and Hana returned to the living room. Shigure was still gone with Hatori and Ayame. Tohru finished cooking a few minutes later and called Kyou down from the roof. Everybody sat down and started eating Tohru's delicious home-cooked meal.

"It'sperfect Tohru-kun." said Hana, helping herself to some more.

"Don't be silly! It's not that good!" she said, blushing.

They finished after aboutthirty-five minutes. They all sat down on the couch and started talking about random things.

"I'm ho-ome!" said Shigure walking in the door.

"Hi Shigure!" said Tohru.

"Hello." said Hana. She was sitting on one side of Tohru, while Kyou was sitting on the floor in front of her. Yuki was sitting on the other side of Hana.

"Did you have fun while I was gone?" asked Shigure, a mischievous smile on his face.

"Yes we did Shigure!" said Tohru smiling widely.

"Tohru-kun, I'm not sure you quite understand what he means." said Hana.

"Eh- What?" asked Tohru.

"Kuso chikan!" said Kyou under his breath.

"What was that Kyou?" asked Shigure.

"Nothing, dammit!"

Shigure sat down next to Yuki.

"So what did you do while I was away with Ha'ri-san and Aaya?" asked Shigure.

"Why do you care?" said Kyou.

"So Shigure, where did you go anyway?" asked Yuki suspiciously.

"Oh, don't worry about that!" said Shigure.

Yuki was starting to get annoyed. He didn't like it when the dog did this. He knew Shigure wasn't going to talk if he didn't want to.

"What? You don't want to tell us?" asked Kyou. He was really curious now.

"'Curiosity killed the cat'!" quoted Shigure pointing up.

"Don't be stupid kuso inu!" said Kyou.

"What? I don't want you to die, Kyou!" said Tohru, jumping up from her place on the couch. She had never heard that phrase before. If she had, she had forgotten it by now.

Hana looked at Tohru.

"What do you mean Tohru? Why would Kyou die?" asked Hana.

Tohru's eyes went wide in realization of what she just said.

"Uh... It was a joke! See, I call Kyou a cat because... uh.. he... always climbs.. onto the roof!" she said slowly. She wasn't good at lying, as she had been taught that it was bad. But it seemed to suit Hana.

Kyou relaxed again and laid back against the couch. He was relieved that Tohru's lie had worked. Although it hadn't been a terrific one, it was okay for the time allowed to come up with it.

Shigure got up and went down the hall to his office. Probably to finish one of his 'romance' novels. Yuki squirmed uncomfortably, and finally got up.

"I'm going out for a while." he said. He walked outside into the warm afternoon sun.

Kyou got up to stretch his legs.
