On with the story…..

Machi huddled even closer to Kyo.

" Yuki, I'm keeping him. " she declared firmly.

' KEEPING ME ! ' Kyo's orange fur now appeared a tad paler.

' This is exactly what I was afraid of……' All Yuki wanted to do was to bang his head against the nearest wall.

" What do you think I should name him….? " Machi held, what she thought was her new pet cat high in the air.

" Baka-neko would be nice….." Yuki muttered quietly, when………

Beep, beep, beep! " Found them. " Hana and group appeared in the hallway, guided by the unquestionable power of Hana's electric waves.

" Ah! " Tohru's eyes went wide as she saw Kyo comfortably nestled in Machi's hands.

xxxxxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyyyyy zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Something inside of Tohru snapped at the sight of Kyo in the arms of another girl.

' Kyo-kun…… She can't hold you like that ! I won't let her! Only I can…..' a new feeling erupted in her heart, something which made it burn a little, something which suffocated her with fear, her Kyo, she just couldn't watch him, with someone else.

" Honda-san! " Yuki exclaimed, relief flooding his body, thankful for the interruption.

Hana cast a worried glance towards Tohru. Tohru was not listening to anybody. Her waves had changed completely.

Tohru rushed over to Machi and snatched Kyo in the blink of an eye.

" I'm really sorry! but that cat, is mine! " she whimpered, tears forming in her eyes.

" ……….." Machi looked at Yuki.

" It is Honda-san's cat. I gave it to her as a Christmas present. I was just taking care of it for a day… I'm really sorry Machi…." he quickly fibbed along Tohru's line of explanation ( if it could be called that! ) . ' I hate to lie to her like this, but there is nothing I can do at the moment…'

" I see. " Machi answered plainly. " I should leave now. " with that she exited the hallway.

" Not much of a people person, is she, prince? " Uo asked Yuki, almost amused.

Yuki just threw everyone an apologetic glance, and ran after Machi, again!

" How long have they been together? " Hana mused in her soft voice, curious.

" Two weeks. I think…." Haru volunteered, while Tohru quietly cuddled up to Kyo.

" Hey, what's that uniform doing on the floor? " Uo suddenly asked, suspiciously.

( Yuki left Kyo's uniform where he dropped it before attacking the cat.)

' Oh no….. not again…' Haru groaned inwardly.

" That's… that's Yuki-kun's! He was going to take it to the laundry….The machine home is broken! " Tohru quickly made up an excuse, hoping that she sounded convincing.

" Whatever." Uo shrugged. " I'll be leaving now, Tohru. Don't want to be late for my part time job. "

" Of course, Uo-chan! " Tohru nodded.

" I'll come with you. " Hana decided to leave to. She was starting to feel really hungry. Besides, Tohru's waves had stabilized.

On the spur of the moment, Hana turned around and asked Tohru, " What is the name of the cat? "

" Ky.. Kyo-kun! " Tohru blushed as she realized what she had said.

" The cat reminded me of Kyo-kun…so…. I ….. decided to call him…" she stuttered.

" I see. " Hana just smiled.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Meanwhile, Yuki caught up to Machi.

He lightly rested a hand on her shoulder, making her stop.

" Are you mad at me…? " he questioned her softly.

" No. " she answered quietly.

He turned her around so that their eyes met, then he pinned her against the wall and captured her lips.

" I want….. a cat….." she managed to speak, when he finally broke the kiss.

" I'll get you one then. " Yuki smiled at her, eyes full of affection.

" I'll even get you two of them, if you want ….." he brushed some of her hair away from her eyes.

" How about five….." she shyly spoke up.

"Yuki mentally shuddered as he imagined five cats prancing around Machi's inherently messy apartment. But still…

" Five will be fine. " He kissed her again.

In the end, Machi went home happy. Yuki returned to Kyo, Tohru and Haru. They successfully located Kyo's underwear, so when Kyo changed back, he was able to dress up properly.

Tohru and group had originally come to Yuki's council room to tell him that Shigure had run off to escape Mit-chan, firmly locking the door behind him, and due to the lack of house keys, they were to spend the night at Kazuma's dojo.

Haru went home. The trio went to the dojo.

No more questions were asked about Yuki's new, mysterious, not to mention scary ( Kyo was still recovering from the shock of almost being kidnapped, or in this case, catnapped!) girlfriend, seeing as Yuki was not going to answer them.( his only answer was " Hi-mit-su! ", which can be translated as " Secret! " )

' All's well that ends well…' Yuki sighed as he retired for the night. He was thinking of ways to save enough money to buy five cats….

FIN.
