When Kyou arrived to shishou's he found the man setting drinking tea. He looked up and saw Kyou and smiled warmly. "How have you been?" He asked.

"Good." Kyou answered as he moved to set across from Shishou.

"Is there something you wanted to talk to me about, Kyou?"

Kyou nodded. Then he reached into his pocket and pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to the man. "All of the students graduating this year have to have meetings with our teachers to discuss our plans for the future and we have to have our parents there."

"Is this the time?" Shishou asked looking at the paper.

Kyou nodded.

Kazuma studied the young man in front of him for a minute. "I get the feeling you came here to do more than just ask me to come to a meeting at your school." He said.

Even though it wasn't a question, Kyou answered anyway. "Yeah," He paused and took a breath then started again, "I wanted to talk to you about my future."

Kazuma gave him a knowing smile. "You always knew your future because of the curse, but now you don't." He said once again as a statement, not a question.

Kyou nodded. "It's more than just that."

Kazuma gave Kyou a questioning look.

Kyou sighed. "Before I had always known that I would be alone and then..."

"Tohru entered your life." Kazuma finished for him.

Kyou nodded once more. "When she first arrived I tried to distance myself from her, but then I felt a little less lonely with her." He began. "Then I pictured at least having one friend, but then... I told her how I felt and she felt the same way."

"Now you picture a future with her." Once again a statement of fact.

"Yes." Kyou answered anyway. "But I'm not sure how to make that future happen and I'm not sure what she wants."

"Have you talked to her about it?"

"Not really." Kyou answered and then let out a sigh. "What if she doesn't want the same future as I do?"

"Do you love her?"

Kyou looked confused at the question. "Well, yeah. I wouldn't want her in my life if I didn't." He answered his voice slightly irritated.

"And she loves you." Kazuma said as a statement once again. "That's how she broke the curse."

"Do you have a point, Shishou?"

Kazuma smiled at the angry young man. "You two love each other. Just talk to her and you will both figure out what your future is, together."

"I knew you were gonna say that." Kyou grumbled.

Kazuma laughed and then reached across the table and ruffled Kyou's hair playfully. "How are things going living with Shigure and his new family?" He asked changing the subject.

"Crazy." Kyou answered. "I've almost gotten to school late several times 'cause the bathroom was unavailable."

"A full house." Kazuma remarked.

"And it's only gonna get fuller." Kyou said with a sigh. "Then we will all be kept up all night by the crying baby."

"Maybe the baby will sleep through the night just fine. Some children do." Kazuma said.

"You're forgetting one small detail with that." Kyou remarked.

"What would that be?"

"It's Shigure's baby." Kyou answered.

Kazuma chuckled. "I suppose you are right." Then a thoughtful look crossed his face. "Talk to Tohru tonight and then the both of you come here tomorrow after school."

Kyou looked totally confused. They had gone from discussing his future to talking about living in the crazy full house and now talking about visiting again. "What should I talk to her about?"

"Your future, together. Then I want you two to come here tomorrow and visit with me."

Kyou let out an exasperated sigh. "But I'm not even sure what I am going to say to her."

"Figure it out on your way home. I'm sure the right words will come to you."

Kyou nodded and then glanced at teh clock on the wall. "I should be getting home. Tohru will have dinner ready soon and I told he I'd try to be back in time."

Kazuma smiled. "Then you had better keep your word." He stood and walked Kyou to the door. "I will see you and Tohru tomorrow."

"Yeah, she'll prolly be excited to come and visit." Kyou said with a small smile. Then he said good night and headed home to his Tohru.

When he arrived home, Kyou was greeted by the smell of Tohru's cooking. He followed his nose to the full dining room. Everyone was seated and Tohru was placing the food on the table. She looked up at him and smiled. "You made it just in time." She said excitedly.

Kyou couldn't help but smile back at her. He moved and took his usual seat next to Tohru. Everyone dug in and soon the food was gone. Kyou helped Tohru do the dishes. While they were doing dishes he looked over at her, "Tohru?"

"Yes, Kyou?" She asked.

"When we get done will you come up to the roof with me?" He asked. "I have something important I want to talk to you about."

Worry flitted across Tohru's face for a moment, but she quickly tucked it behind a smile. "Of course Kyou."

Kyou bent down and gently pressed his lips to hers. "I love you." He told her.

"I love you, too." She said smiling as the worry left her body.

Soon the dishes were finished and the young couple headed to teh roof for some alone time. Of course they weren't able to escape Shigure's teasing. "Awe the love birds heading to the roof! I bet they are going to make out!"

Tohru's face turned red and Kyou just ignored him. Once the two were on the roof Kyou turned to look at Tohru. "When I went to talk to Shishou, I went to talk to him about my future and that stupid meeting."

Tohru smiled. "That makes sense."

Kyou took a deep breath. "I'm not sure exactly what my future will be anymore."

"Why do you say that?" Tohru asked, furrowing her brow in confusion.

"Well, I want work in Shishou's dojo and someday when he retires take over, but..."

"But what?" Tohru asked.

"I want you with me, and I don't know if that's what you want." Kyou finished.

Tohru smiled at him. "Of course that's what I want. I want to be with you, always."

"Are you sure? I mean it may not always be the greatest life and..."

"As long as we are together it will be a great life." Tohru said with a huge grin. "It will be the greatest life anyone has ever lived."

Kyou smiled and pulled Tohru into his arms and kissed her. "I love you, Tohru."

"I love you, Kyou."

"Kyou and Tohru sittin' in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Momiji sang interrupting the couple's moment.

"You little...!" Kyou began but was cut off by Momiji.

"Haru and I are leaving. I just wanted to tell Tohru bye."

"Bye Momiji. See you at school tomorrow!" Tohru said smiling like always.

"See you Tohru!" Momiji said and then headed off.

Tohru turned her attention back to Kyou and smiled.

Kyou smiled back. "I have one more thing."

"What's that?"

"Shishou wants us both to come and visit tomorrow after school. Would that be okay with you?"

"Of course!" Tohru said. "I haven't seen him in a while."

Kyou just smiled and kissed Tohru's forehead. "I knew you'd be excited."

Tohru giggled and then snuggled closer to Kyou. They sat like that for a while and watched the sunset. After a while they got up and headed inside. They said good night and headed for bed.
