The next day school passed by uneventfully. When the final bell rang, Tohru headed for the girls' locker room. She had brought extra clothes to change into, not wanting to go and see Shishou in her school uniform. She had persuaded Kyou to do the same. Then they met up in the hall and started to head for the door.
"Hey where are you guys going?" Momiji asked. "You got a hot date?"
"We are going to visit Shishou." Kyou replied with a sigh.
"Okay." Momiji said with a sad look on his face. "Me and Haru are coming over and I was hoping we could all play a game."
"Maybe we can when we get back." Tohru said not wanting to upset Momiji.
"Okay!" Momiji said.
"It might be late when we get back though." Kyou said. "I'm not sure what Shishou wants to talk about."
Momiji's face fell. "Okay." Then he smiled. "Maybe tomorrow then!"
Before anyone could say anything else Momiji left. Kyou let out a sigh.
Tohru squeezed his hand. Then she stretched up and kissed his cheek.
Kyou looked into her blue eyes and smiled. Then the pair headed out the door and to Shishou's. When they arrived they were greeted by the smell of something burning. They quickly slipped off their shoes and ran to the kitchen. They looked around and saw a large pot on the stove, smoke pouring from the top of it.
Tohru ran over to the stove and turned the burner off and pulled the hot pot off the burner. "Ouch!" She yelped as the hot pot burned her hand.
Kyou ran over to Tohru and pulled her over to the sink. He ran cold water over her hand. Just then Kazuma ran into the room with a fire extinguisher. He saw the two teens as the smoke cleared and a sheepish grin crossed his face. "I was attempting to cook."
"And you failed Shishou." Kyou said with a laugh.
Kazuma looked over at Tohru and saw that the palm of her hand was starting to turn red. He walked over to a cabinet and pulled out a first aid kit and handed it to Kyou. Kyou opened it and then pulled out the supplies he needed. Then he turned the cold water off and took Tohru's hand. He put an ointment on the burn and then wrapped her hand. Then he gently kissed her palm.
She smiled up at him. "All better now." She said. Then she looked over at the stove. "I'll fix dinner."
"I would appreciate that." Kazuma said.
Kyou became indignant. "No! She's the guest here. We can just order out!"
"I can make dinner. It won't bother me to do it." Tohru said.
"No." Kyou said.
"I suppose Kyou is right." Kazuma said.
They figured out what they wanted to eat and then called and placed an order. After a short while the food was delivered. They ate dinner together and chatted about their days. When dinner was over the three sat at the table still talking.
"I suppose you two are wondering why I asked you to come here today." Kazuma said, as usual a statement rather than a question.
The two teens nodded anyway.
"Well, I have heard that your home is getting rather full." He said looking at Kyou.
"A little." Kyou replied.
Kazuma smiled. "It gets rather lonely here sometimes." He said. "I was wondering if you would like to move in here with me? Both of you of course."
Kyou smiled at the idea of getting to live with Shishou again. Then he looked over at Tohru. She may not want to move. She might want to stay with the others. He thought and internally smacked himself.
"I can see you need some time to discuss this. I'll leave you two alone so you can talk." Then he stood up and headed to the other room.
Kyou looked at Tohru. He wasn't sure what to say. Luckily for him, Tohru began the conversation. "You want to stay here." She said stating a fact, not asking.
"Yes." Kyou answered anyway. "But if you want to stay home with everyone else..."
"As long as I am with you, I am home." Tohru replied. "As long as we are together and happy that's all that matters."
Kyou smiled at Tohru. "Are you sure you want to move in here?" He asked wanting to make sure she was happy.
Tohru grinned that goofey grin Kyou loved. "Yup." She said and nodded.
Kyou pulled Tohru into his arms and kissed her lips. "I love you." He said.
"I love you." She said smiling up at him.
"I see you two have reached a decision." Kazuma said suddenly appearing in the room.
"So, when do you want us to move in?" Kyou asked unable to contain his excitement.
"How about this weekend?"
Kyou looked at Tohru for the answer.
"That sounds great." She said smiling brightly.
It was settled, Kyou and Tohru would move in with Kazuma in just a few short days.
