Chapter 9
We all finished and took a short break, in which we all fell asleep on the couch. I woke up around 7 and I woke Kyo up "Kyo you need to get back home." I said. Momiji woke up and left with Kyo. I left Cindy to sleep on the couch. In the morning we got ready for the arrival of Chris and her brothers. Around noon someone knocked on the door I opened it and me and Cindy yelled "Surprise!" but when I saw the people I sighed. Haru came in "So this is the way you guys let people in your house. Anyway mind if we stay?" He said pointing to Kyo and Momiji.
I nodded and shut the door behind them. Haru kept watch for Chris and told when a car was pulling in the driveway. Momiji and Cindy and everyone hid except Kyo who stood beside the closet I was in. I motioned him to hide but he looked confused so I pulled him in the closet roughly and shut the door, in a second it was real dark.
I heard the door open and Aya yell "Anybody in this dump home?" then an "Ow." Escape from his mouth. I gave everyone the okay and we jumped out "SURPRISE!" Me and Cindy ran up to Chris and hugged her. After a minute she said "This is nice but I can't breathe." We laughed then hugged Aya and Ruri.
Haru walked up and greeted himself as did Momiji and Kyo. After everyone knew each other we sat down to eat. We laughed and talked the whole time except for Kyo who was unusually quiet. After we ate we made plans with Chris for tomorrow and she left for their new home.
Kyo was upstairs so I left everyone to go find him. I finally found him in my room, sitting at my desk. "hey why are you up here and in my room for that matter?" I asked. He just looked at me then shrugged "I don't know I guess it's quieter up here." I sat cross-legged on my bed. After a couple minutes of silence I asked him "Why were you so quiet you usually talk."
"That's only when I'm around you. I don't talk a lot around people but I lose my temper a lot. For some reason though, with you, I don't lose my temper and I can do whatever I feel comfortable." He said. "Thanks Kyo. It's nice hanging with you too and you know your welcome here anytime if you need to get away." I said smiling at him as he looked up.
He nodded and stood up and walked over to where I sat. "Well I guess I better get back see ya later." He said. I nodded "See you later Kyo." That night I wrote yet another journal entry about the day and went to bed. The next morning we met Chris and headed to town. "What do you know about Haru?" Chris asked.
Cindy shrugged and pulled us over to a clothing store and dragged us in. "I met him a while back Chris. He is a black belt in martial arts and smooth talking, calm and has a black side when you get him very angry or annoyed." I said. Chris grinned and nodded in understanding. Because of her moods she'd be perfect for him.
At the Dojo Haru and Kyo were talking after a match "Cassidy is kind of cool." Said Haru. "Yeah. What of it?" asked Kyo. "Nothing really I think I'll make a move on her some time." Haru said. Kyo shot him a death glare "Don't you dare touch her Haru or I'll kill you!" He yelled. Haru smiled "I knew you liked her. No wonder you're so sweet on her. Ask her out before someone else does."
