As Kimiko awoke in the morning she didn't open her eyes at right away. Kimiko felt tired, and hoped she could just lay here and fell asleep. After what seemed like few minutes, Kimiko figured out that her attempts to fall back asleep were in vain.

'I really don't want to get up! It's really warm, and feels REALLY good to just lay here'. Suddenly Kimiko could herea soft beating sound near her ear. 'Is that a heartbeat?' Afraid of what could be lying next to her, Kimiko slowly and cautiously opened her eyes, only to find a pair of sky blue eyes of none other than Clay staring down at her.

"Mornin Kimmy'," Clay said softly.

Kimiko breathed a loud sigh of relief. "Morning. You have no idea how much you scared me just now."

Clay smiled at her and shook his head. "Sorry bout that Kimiko." Clay said with a soft smile.

Kimiko looked around and found herself in Clay's room. "How did I get in here?" Kimiko asked a little confused and worried.

"You don' remember last night?" Clay said, catching the confused and worried tone in her voice. Clay's cheeks turned red as he caught on to what she was thinking. "We didn' do anything like that." Clay said hoarsely.

Kimiko began to rack her brain to try to remember what he was talking about. Suddenly the memories of the nightmare nightmare, her crying tears, then being carried from her room to stay with Clay. "Oh know I remember. Thank you for letting me stay here with you, Clay. I wasn't much trouble, was I?" Kimiko asked

"Course you werent," Clay said "I made sure you were OK before I wen' back to sleep." Clay said as he watched Kimiko's movements carefully. "Are you sure you're OK?" He asked with a stern face.

"Yeah I'm just fine now." Kimiko said as she looked around for a clock. "What time is it anyway?" Kimiko asked as she stretched her arms.

He looked down at his watch. "I believe its time for you to git outta my bed so we can git ready for morning exercises."

Kimiko sighed as she lay back on Clay's pillows. "Oh do I have too? I like it here. It's nice and warm." Kimiko said as she rolled onto her stomach and cuddled into Clays bed. "I think I'll stay."

Clay smiled and bent down eye level to Kimiko and gave here an 'I-don't-think-so' look. Kimiko pouted slightly before sitting up and laying her head on Clays leg while giving him puppy dog eyes, "awww! Please?" Kimiko said in a child like voice.

Clay smiled, as he leaned down and began to close the distance that was between them, as he sat Kimiko on his legs and took his arms and wrapped them around her waist and held her close and tight to his chest. Somehow Kimiko's hand had ended up behind Clays neck; while the other one was tangled in Clays hair. Kimiko felt a suddent tingling sensation cover her body. It felt like she had spent fifteen minutes like this. That is until…

"Clay, I cannot find Kimiko anywhere," Omi said, opening Clays door and stepped in with Dojo on his shoulder. "Have you seen," Omi stopped short when he saw the position they were in, "her." Omi bore a confused and slightly angry look as Kimiko quickly got off of Clay and sat next to him with a blush on her face.

"I'm right here Omi." Kimiko said as she looked at Clay. "Um, I think you told me I should have been getting dressed fifteen minutes ago. I'll go do that now." Omi watched Kimiko get up from the bed and quickly walk out of the room. As Kimiko walked by, Omi slowly followed behind her.

Dojo gave Clay a stern look. "Did you two-?"

"No!" Clay said, interrupting Dojo. "I didn' touch her. Not like that anyway." Clay said as a he blushed furiously. Kimiko giggled, as she walks faster back to her room, not noticing that Omi was right behind her. 'Maybe I should have stayed and backed him up' Kimiko thought as she entered her room. 'Oh Well will just have to straighten it out later' Kimiko thought, 'The worse that can happen is that they don't believe us.

Kimiko had just changed into her robe, when she instantly felt a pair of eyes watching her. Kimiko looked behind her and spotted Omi standing in her doorway. "Oh Omi! You scared me," Kimiko said, letting out a sigh of relief. Omi gave Kimiko a sad and angry look as he stepped towards her. "Why were you in Clays room Kimiko?" Omi asked, with a hint of his rising anger.

"I had a bad dream last night, and asked Clay if I could stay with him incase I ha another nightmare" Kimiko said as she walked over to her counter and began to comb her hair. "Oh! I see" Omi said a little calmer. "You two didn't DO anything did you?" Omi asked.

"Of course not Omi" Kimiko said as a blush formed on her cheeks, "we didn't do anything like that, I promise!" Kimiko said as she put her hair up in a ponytail. Kimiko tossed on her favorite tennis shoes and went to meet the guys for breakfast. "Are you coming Omi?" Kimiko asked as she turned to check on the boy standing quietly behind her.

Omi shook his head and smiled. "Yes I'm coming" Omi said as he followed behind Kimiko.
