Me: I saw Zatch bell on youtube and "he" got his book burned... No it wasn't Zatch, it was someone else, (i just dont want to spoil it for anyone.) But if you want to know who he is, look at the 8th person under my favorite characters in my profile.

Kori: Is not!

Rykun: Is too!

Kori: Is too!

Rykun: Is not, Final!

Kori: Thank you! -kisses Rykun on the cheek and walks out the room-

Rykun: Huh?

Me: I told you... On to the story...

The next morning,

"Weird…"

"Wasn't she sleeping in your room, Kolulu?"

"Yeah, but…"

Kori was sleeping right next to Rykun on the couch. Lori's couch actually looks like a smaller version of a bed.

"But it is kinda cute though." Sherrice smiled.

"Let's leave them alone." Lori smiled. The girls left the room and went into the dining room.

"Lori, where is your phone?" Sherrice asked.

"Over there, why?" Lori pointed to the phone near the edge of the table.

"I need to call my dad." Sherrice said. Sherrice got up, picked up the phone, and dialed her dad's number.

"Hello?" a deep voice said.

"Hey dad."

"Where were you? I waited near the gate."

"Sorry, I meet an old friend and I spent the night at her house."

"Well at least you are safe. Your stuff is at the house."

"Ok, thank you dad."

"No problem, but one question though."

"Yeah?"

"Why do you have an extra suitcase with boy clothes in it?"

"Uhh… I will have to show you better than I can tell you."

"You didn't…"

"No I didn't do that!"

"Oh never mind then."

"Do you know where the park is dad?"

"Yeah on Hollow St. Why?"

"Just checking."

"Ok, I got to go now, call me when you're ready to go. Bye Sherrice."

"Bye dad."

There was a knock at the door.

"It's nine o'clock! Who knocks at the door at nine?" Lori sighed and walked over to the door.

"Who is it?" Lori asked.

"Rusty Shakleford, I'm here to deliver a package." A voice said.

Lori sighed and opened the door, "Why do you always do that?"

"I don't know it's just me I guess." Ryan smiled, "Where's Kori?"

"Over there, sleeping." Lori pointed to the couch. Ryan walked inside and closed the door behind him.

He walked over to the couch, "Who's he?"

"That's Rykun." Sherrice said.

"Cool- Wait, is that you Sherrice?" Ryan said.

"Hi…" she waved and blushed.

"Hi…" he blushed. Everyone paused for like five minutes.

"So… how life's everyone?" Ryan asked.

"Good." Kolulu said.

"Same here." Lori said.

"Fine…" Sherrice quietly said.

"What?" Ryan said, putting his hand behind his ear.

"Fine."

"What?" he smiled.

"Fine!"

"What?"Ryan laughed, "Just kidding, good to hear."

"Kori was right, a grown up version of Rykun." Kolulu laughed, "And she's a grown up version of Kori."

Everyone started laughing except for Ryan, who was completely confused.

"Right… so why is Kori sleeping on the couch with him?" Ryan asked. The girls shrugged their shoulders.

"She was there when we woke up." Lori said.

"So that means…" Ryan paused.

"Yep." Sherrice nodded.

"She finally found him." He smiled, "Good for her."

"When did you meet her?" Sherrice asked.

"Right before school started Friday. She was on the sidewalk crying, that why I was late to school that day." He said.

"You really are nice." Lori said.

"Yeah, I know! Splee!" Ryan smiled.

"Splee!" Sherrice said.

"You watch that show too?"

"Yep."

"How did you meet him?" Ryan asked.

"After school, at the park." Sherrice said.

"And Lori how about you?"

"The same way you met Kori." Lori said.

"What now?" Ryan asked.

"I'm hungry." Kolulu said, tugging of Lori's shirt.

"I guess breakfast." Lori smiled and walk in the kitchen.

"I'll help." Sherrice said. "Me too, I love to cook." Ryan laughed.

Kolulu smiled and then walked to the couch.

"They look happy together…" She said to herself.

"Give me that!" Lori yelled from the kitchen.

"Never!" Ryan said and ran out the kitchen with a spatula in his hand, Lori was right behind him.

"Crap, I forgot she was on the track team…" Ryan said.

"Give it…" Lori said.

"Fine…" Ryan said in defeat, "You have won the battle but not the war!"

"What was that?" Lori said.

"Nothing." Ryan started whistling as they both walked back into the kitchen.

Kolulu started to laugh as Kori started waking up.

"I had such a nice dream." Kori yawned and started stretching.

"What was it about?" Kolulu asked.

"I was sleeping so peacefully with Rykun." She blushed.

"Your dream came true." Kolulu smiled. Kori looked at her confused, "What do you mean?"

"Look." Kori turned her head to where she was pointing.

"He… he… I… he… was sleeping with us?" Kori stammered.

"No, you came down here and slept with him on the couch." (A/N: No, it wasn't like that, if you were thinking that way. And if you were, I will pray for you.)

"Well… I … uhh…" Kori was speechless.

"I guess you were sleepwalking." Kolulu said.

"I guess so…" Kori said, looking at Rykun sleep, "I wonder what he is dreaming about?"

"Shippo…" Rykun said in his sleep.

"Who's Shippo?" Kolulu asked. Kori shrugged her shoulders.

"Kori… Kori Meneake… I like that…" He said in his sleep again. Kori whole face just turned red and she ran to the bathroom.

"Wow…" Kolulu smiled.

"What wrong with Kori?" Sherrice asked, walke dout of the kitchen.

"I don't know, she just heard Rykun say 'Kori Meneake' and ran to the bathroom." Kolulu told her.

"I think I know why." Ryan said.

"Why?" Sherrice asked.

"Hmm… If he is thinking about what I'm thinking about, then he is probably thinking about the same thing I'm thinking about." Ryan said. ( A/N: Did you catch that? If you didn't then read the rest of it.)

Sherrice and Kolulu sweatdropped, "What?"

"He's probably dreaming about marrying Kori." Ryan said.

"Aww that's so cute!" Sherrice squealed.

"Just like you…" Ryan said, under his breath.

"Hm?"

"Nothing." He smiled.

"I'm going to go check on Kori, be right back." Kolulu said and walked to the bathroom.

"Lori?" Ryan said.

"Yes?"

"Are you almost finished?"

"Yeah, just need to clean up a little."

"Let me help. The mess is my fault anyway."

"Ok."

Ryan kissed Sherrice on the cheek and walked in the kitchen.

"He…he… he…" Sherrice couldn't even put it into words.

"Look at me, I'm helping." Sherrice heard Ryan said from the kitchen.

"Don't mess with that! Or that! Or that!" Lori yelled.

"Well, what can I mess with?"

"The rag and wipe the counter off."

"Fine…"

Sherrice was in tears, laughing. Both Ryan and Lori peeked around the corner.

"See, I told you it would work." Ryan smiled.

"Yeah, you were right." Lori said.

"So all this time Sherrice had a mamodo too…" Ryan sighed, "I don't want her to get hurt…"

"Don't worry, she already been in three battles and won one of them" Lori smiled.

"One more than us, me and Kori got into a fight right after I met her. I think it was some dude named Rey… Reyku… Reykom… whatever we beat him easily and burned his book but Kori didn't want to fight anymore."

----------

"I can't believe…" Kori said while washing her face.

"Kori, you ok?" Kolulu asked through the door.

"I'm fine." She said.

"Can I come in?" Kolulu asked. Kori unlocked the door to let her sister in.

"Well at least you know he cares about you." Kolulu said, closing the door behind her.

"Yeah but…" Kori blushed.

"But what? He loves you and you love him, right." Kolulu said.

"Right but…" "There is no 'but', you love him and he loves you, end of story." Kolulu told her. Kori stood there shocked for a while and then gave Kolulu a hug.

"It's a good thing you're my sister." Kori smiled.

"Same here." Kolulu said, hugging her sister tight. They both walked out the bathroom to see that Rykun was up looking for something.

"Good morning." Kolulu said.

"Good morning." Rykun smiled and started looking through Sherrice's purse, "Yay I found it!" Rykun was holding his Shippo toy in his hands.

"What's that?" Kori asked.

"It's Shippo." Rykun smiled and started playing with it, "Sherrice made it."

"I got something like that too." Kolulu smiled and ran upstairs. She came back down with a doll in her hands, "Lori made this one for me, her name is Tina."

"She's so pretty." Kori smiled.

"Thank you." Kolulu smiled. Rykun and Kolulu started playing with their toys while Kori was just looking at them, thinking.

"I wish I had one…"

"Here you go." Rykun smiled. He handed her his Shippo toy.

"But it's yours…" Kori said.

"And now it's yours." Rykun smiled, "For now anyway."

"Thank you…" Kori blushed. Rykun got up and walked to the kitchen to see what Sherrice was doing.

"Sherrice, I'm hungry…" Rykun said, softly.

"Don't worry, breakfast is ready." Sherrice smiled. Rykun then noticed Ryan in the kitchen and tugged on Sherrice's shirt.

"Sherrice, who is he?" He whispered.

"That's Ryan, Kori's book owner." She whispered back.

"Hey Rykun." Ryan smiled.

"Hello…" He shyly said, "How do you know my name?"

"Because that's all Kori been saying for the past two days and then when I saw you two sleeping on the couch together-

"What!" Rykun face turned beet red, "What do you mean 'sleeping on the couch together'?"

"You-were-sleeping-with-Kori-on-the-couch." Ryan smiled.

Rykun was speechless, "So then she must have…"

"Yep, we heard it all." Ryan smiled.

"It's actually kind of cute though." Sherrice smiled.

"Kori Meneake…" Ryan smiled. Rykun couldn't say anything.

"Don't worry, she probably feels the way about you." he said.

"You think so?"

"Ryan might be an idiot at times…"

"Thank you...Hey!"

"But he knows a thing or two about love." Lori smiled.

"Thank you…" Rykun blushed.

"Kolulu! Kori! Breakfast is ready." Lori called.

Meanwhile, someone was beside a tree near Lori's house, talking to another person beside him:

"When Zatch comes back over, we will attack them all at once." The small figure said.

"Right." The taller figure said.

Me: Who is the mystery figure? Is it Rops? Or Dr. Riddles (hopitalized)? Or Tia? Or possibly Zatch? Maybe it's Kagome? (Weird...)

Rykun: I hope is Tia...

Kori: What?!

Me: Uh oh...
