The next day arrived too soon for poor Kyou. He was glad that there was no school and he wouldn't have to see those two until dinner. He was also glad to get to spend the day in the dojo with Shishou.

Tohru of course soent the day getting things ready for her friends' visit. She made sure the house was extra clean and taht dinner would be extra special. She was just trying to figure out how to tell them about her and Kyou sharing a room when there was a knock at the door. She walked over and answered it.

"Hey guys!" She greeted U-o and Hana brightly.

"Hey Tohru." U-o greeted.

"Come on in." Tohru said as she stepped aside to let her friends in the house.

"Thanks." U-o said.

"This is a nice house." Hana said as she entered. "I don't sense Kyou or his father's electric signals."

"They are still at the dojo." Tohru said smiling. "They should be home before long."

Just then the two men of the house walked in the door. "Speak of the devil." U-o commented.

Kyou just glared at the blond.

"You two ladies must be Tohru's friends." Kazuma said, trying to break the tension in the room. "I'm Kazuma Sohma, Kyou's dad."

"I'm Arisa Uotoni."

"I'm Saki Hanajima. It is a pleasure to meet you." Hana greeted adding a slight emphasis on the word pleasure.

Kyou just glared at her.

Tohru reached her hand over to Kyou's and gave it a gentle squeeze. He calmed slightly, but not like he usually did. For some reason Hana hitting on Shishou really bugged him. "Dinner is just about ready." She said, trying to take everybody's mind off of the current situation.

"Do you need any help?" Kazuma asked.

"Nope, I've got everything under control. So why don't you alkl set down and I'll finish it up?"

Everyone nodded and then complied. Tohru walked into the kitchen and finished up making dinner. She had even made desert, jelly buns and cookies. She took everything from the kitchen and sat it on the table. "Dig in." She said as she placed the large spread on the table.

"As always, your food smells delicious." Kazuma told Tohru.

"And tastes good." U-o said as she took a large bite.

Soon dinner had been consumed and the group enjoyeda delightful conversation. "Hey, Tohru how about you give us a grand tour?" U-o suggested.

"Uhm sure." Tohru replied unsure.

The threee girls stood up and Tohru began to show them around the house. She led them through the house, showing the kitchen, the bathroom, the living room, and so on. She finally stood with them in front of her and Kyou's bedroom door. She opened the door and the three of them stepped inside.

"This is a nice room." U-o commented.

"Yes very nice." Hana added. Then she walked over to the bed and sat on it. "This bed is very comfortable."

U-o stood in front of the closet and opened the door to inspect the size of it. "A very nice closet. It's a good si..." She stopped in the middle of her sentence, "what is Orange Top's stuff doin' in here?"

Hana stood up from the bed and walked over to stand behind Arisa. "That is strange. Why are his things here?"

Tohru gave her friends a sheepish grin. "Because this is his room, too." She answered quickly.

U-o and Hana whipped their heads around and stared at Tohru with wide eyes. "What?" They both asked in unison.

"This is Kyou's room, too." Tohru repeated.

"Let me get this straight, this is your room and Kyou's?" U-o inquired in disbelief.

Tohru nodded.

"You both sleep in here? In the same bed? Correct?" Hana asked for further clarification.

"Yes." Tohru answered blushing.

"And Kazuma is okay with this?" Hana asked.

"It was actually his idea. He thought we might like sharing a room." She answered honestly.

"And you don't mind?" U-o asked.

"Not at all. I really like it." Tohru answered.

"So, you guys have...you know done it?" U-o questioned.

Tohru's eyes became huge saucers. "No! Kyou is a perfect gentleman."

"You two share a room and a bed and yet you have not shared the intemacy of love making?" Hana inquired.

"No, we haven't." Tohru said. "Why do you two keep thinking that we have?"

"You guys have been going out for a while." U-o said.

"And there is something about your waves when you are together. It is hard to explain, but I have only seen waves like that in one other couple, Shigure and Nightingale."

"And we know that they have done it." U-o finished.

Tohru let out a sigh and sat on the bed.

"Has Orangie even tried?" She asked.

"No." Tohru answered.

"That is strange. Most men try." Hana commented. "Is Kyou perhaps...into boys?"

"No! It's not like that at all!" Tohru said letting her temper flare. "Kyou just lives and respects me. And I don't think that either of us is ready for that step! Besides it's not like any of this is your guys' business."

U-o and Hana flinched slightly at Tohru's behavior. They knew that they had upset her and they really hated doing that. The two girls walked over to their friend and enveloped her in a group hug. "We are so sorry, Tohru." Hana had said.

"Yeah, real sorry." U-o added.

"It's okay." Tohru said. "I know you guys mean well, but sometimes it's just a bit much."

After a while the girls exited the room and joined the men in the living room. U-o and Hana visited for a while longer. When they left both Kyou and Tohru let out a sigh of relief. Soon it was time for bed.

That night Kyou fell asleep quickly, holding Tohru close. Tohru however was having trouble sleeping. She looked over to make sure Kyou was asleep, then she gently climbed out of bed, careful to keep from waking her love. She went and grabbed her shoes and started walking. She wasn't sure where she was going, but she just kept walking.
