The next morning, Ryuu had awakened early and decided to let Emi sleep a little while. She had awakened a few times throughout the night to two crying twins. When time passed by, and it was almost eleven, Ryuu decided to make breakfast for Emi. Since he wasn't exactly the best cook, he just made something simple and brought it to her room. "Emi?" He said softly, sitting on the edge of the bed. He shook her lightly.

She opened her eyes and yawned. A small smile fell over her lips as she looked up drowzily at Ryuu. "I'm sorry.. I slept in, didn't I?" She whispered.

Ryuu shook his head. "You were up quite a lot feeding to baby boys." He laughed lightly and kissed her forehead. "I made you an easy breakfast." He said.

She smiled gently as she looked down at the food. "You're too good to me." She murmured.

Ryuu laughed softly and shook his head. "You just went through two labours." He said. "You're too good to me." He smiled.

She chuckled and moved to sit up, taking a piece of toast from the plate and biting into it. She smiled after swallowing. "Such a gourmet meal." She teased.

Ryuu laughed. "Are I not the best cook ever?" He said sarcastically.

She laughed. "Toast with jam." She smirked. "Of course."

Ryuu shrugged. "I didn't know if you would want eggs. I remember the last time I tried, and you were being quite picky." He chuckled.

She gave him a blank look. "They weren't even done cooking and you served them to me."

"They seemed done to me." He shrugged.

Emi just laughed and shook her head as she took another bite of her toast. "How are the twins?" She asked.

"Beautiful." He smiled.

She smiled gently and sighed. "Okay.. I want to see them." She murmured, swinging her legs to the side of the bed to set her feet on the floor. She smiled at Ryuu. "Thanks for breakfast." She chuckled. "What did you feed Tonoko, Katara and yourself?"

"Tonoko is still asleep; must have stayed up late again." He laughed lightly. "And Katara and I had cereal." He smiled. "Don't worry, I'm not about to poison our kid."

Emi rolled her eyes. "I'll start lunch...go wake up Tonoko." She said and moved out into the hall and down the stairs.

Ryuu made his way to Tonoko's room and pushed the door open, walking in and calling his name. Tonoko quickly sat up and looked at Ryuu in shock. "Dad?" He asked. "What's wrong?"

Ryuu laughed. "Your hair, now get up."

Tonoko just smiled stupidily and laid back down. Ryuu's eyebrow raised. "No, I said get up. Not lay back down."

Tonoko kicked his foot in Ryuu direction and rolled over. "That woman is amazing." He mumbled.

Ryuu laughed. "Oh?"

Tonoko nodded. "I never knew lips could be so soft."

Ryuu laughed and leaned against the door frame. "You kissed her?"

Tonoko laughed and shook his head. "Opposite."

"She kissed you? What did you do?" He asked.

Tonoko sighed. "I gave her it." He replied.

Ryuu's expression softened. "It's official?"

Tonoko nodded, utterly and long 'mhm'. "I sure did."

Ryuu nodded. "You should tell your mother." He said.

Tonoko sighed in a love-struck manner and nodded. "Yeah, okay." He said and rolled back over to sit up. After a few more words exchanged, Tonoko moved downstairs and into the kitchen where his mother was preparing a meal. "Good morning, mom." He said and opened the fridge, fishing out the orange juice and moving to retrieve a glass.

Emi glanced at Tonoko. She was still tired from giving birth to the twins but forced a smile. "Morning. I see you slept in like I did."

Tonoko laughed slightly and nodded. After taking a sip, turned to lean against the counter. "Guess who's the coolest guy in the universe?" He smirked.

Emi laughed lightly. "Well, to me that would be your father, but..." She turned around completely to face Tonoko. "Did something good happen with Miyu last night?"

Tonoko laughed, paused, then laughed again. "She completely and totally digs me."

Ryuu's voice rang out from the livingroom. "Skip to the punch, Tonoko!"

Tonoko rolled his eyes playfully and smirked across the room at his mother. "I gave her the necklace."

Emi's face brightened as she looked at Tonoko. "I'm so proud of you."

Tonoko nodded. "And man..." He took another mouthful of his orange juice and set the glass on the counter. "Is kissing always like that?"

Emi raised an eyebrow and smirked. She laughed slightly and turned back to the half prepared food. "It is if you're with the right person. But the first kiss is always the best." She smiled and glanced at Tonoko again.

Tonoko lifted his eyes to the roof and grinned. "She's the one who kissed me too, you know. See, I'm cooler than dad." He chuckled.

Emi laughed outloud and shook her head. "Technically, that makes her cooler than you, son." She smirked. "Because she was bold enough to take the first move that you didn't."

Tonoko pursed his lips and shook his head. "Nu-uh. She...uh..."

Just then, Katara came running - slightly stumbling - towards Tonoko. "Onii-san! Onii-san! You up!"

Tonoko bent down to pick Katara up. He nodded. "Hey, Katara. Who's the coolest ever?" He asked.

She blinked in confusion before grinning. "Me!"

Emi burst out laughing again before smirking at Tonoko. "Guess no one thinks it's you."

Tonoko narrowed his eyes at Emi. "I'll prove you totally wrong." He said and turned to Katara before tickling her. "And what did I tell you? You're suppose to say Onii-san when I ask you that!"

She giggled and squirmed in his arms. "S-Stop it!"

Tonoko laughed and kissed her forehead. A knock came at the door, and Tonoko moved from the kitchen to answer. He pulled the door open to see Miyu. He put up his index finger and closed the door slightly, moving back to check the mirror, finding his hair semi-decent and moved to open the door again. He ignored the fact he had no shirt on and leaned against the door frame with a smirk. "Hello there." He said and winked.

She rolled her eyes plafully and reached up to mess his hair up. "I told you that doesn't work." She laughed and looked to Katara. "Hey Katara." She grinned.

"Miyu!" Katara grinned and reached out for her.

Miyu took Katara from Tonoko and winked at him as she moved past him and into the house, using her foot to kick the door closed. She moved to the kitchen and saw Emi. She gasped slightly.

"Wh-Why are you up after-:"

"I'm fine, Miyu." Emi assured. "I'm just tired."

"You should rest then." Miyu stated and set Katara on her feet. "Let me help, Emi. I'm a fairly good cook..."

Emi smiled gently. "I'd actually apriciate that."

Tonoko had followed Miyu to the kitchen and stood in the doorway. "Hey, Miyu..." He said.

Miyu looked back at Tonoko. "Yes?" She asked.

He flexed his muscles and watched them casually. "Who do you find the coolest person is?" He asked.

Miyu thought for a moment. "The Kazekage - Gaara."

"Uh..." He turned his eyes towards her and paused for a moment before shaking his head when Emi began to laugh. "Okay...Who do you find is the coolest guy your age?" He asked.

Miyu blushed faintly and shrugged. "You."

Emi laughed still. Tonoko turned to his mom with a wide opened mouth. "Oh! Bam! Just like that." He stated and crossed his arms over his chest. "She digs me." He smirked.

Emi rolled her eyes. "Using your own girlfriend is cheating."

Tonoko's expression turned blank. "Then saying dad is the coolest shouldn't count since he's your husband." He said and pursed his lips, swirving his head back and forth.

Emi rolled her eyes and ignored Tonoko. "Miyu, can you help me?"

Miyu smiled and nodded. She walked over to see what Emi was making and grinned. "I know how to make this. I make it all the time at home." She turned to look at Emi. "Go sit, I can finish it."

"A-Are you sure?" Emi asked, slightly take aback. She was used to Ryuu and Tonoko being unable to cook, so she always had to make meals and could never ask for their help unless she wanted to have to start all over.

Miyu nodded. "Rest, Emi."

Emi smiled gently and squeezed Miyu's shoulder before heading towards the livingroom. "Nice necklace, by the way. Suits you." She laughed.

Miyu blushed and turned her attention to the food that Emi had half-prepared and continued to make it from where she left off.

"Sweet, she's even a cook." Tonoko was bending down and speaking to Katara. Katara just grinned and nodded her head.

"Sweet." She repeated in a whisper and placed her finger over her lips, shh-ing.

They both laughed quietly. Miyu shook her head. "I can hear you two." She said, keeping her eyes on her task.

Tonoko placed his hand over his mouth and widened his eyes at Katara. Katara mimicked him and shh-ed again before running off. Tonoko stood and went to lean against the counter beside Miyu. "And how are you this fine mo- afternoon?" He asked.

She smiled and lifted her eyes to meet his. "I.. I couldn't get last night out of my head." She whispered. "I told my parents." She blushed faintly.

Tonoko blushed and nodded. "Same..." He murmured and laughed lightly. He absently reached out to brush his thumb lightly over her lips before pulling back and blushing more.

She smiled and blushed more as well. "D-Do your parents know too?" She whispered.

Tonoko nodded. "They say you're the cooler one for making the first move." He murmured and scratched his neck. "Sorry."

She shook her head. "Then make the first move today." She smiled.

Tonoko lifted his eyes to meet her and reached out to place his hand lightly on her neck before pulling her to him and pressing his lips softly against hers. Her moved his other arm around her waist and closed his eyes. She closed her eyes in return and blushed as she moved her arms around his neck. He pressed his lips harder to hers and hugged her tightly, taking a quick glance out the kitchen door to see his parents heads turned the other way. He smiled softly and closed his eyes again. He moved them from his parents line of vision and pinned her between himself and the counter. "There." He murmured against her lips. "I'm the cool one for today." He chuckled.

She blushed more and nodded. "What about the lunch, though?" She laughed slightly - she hadn't even gotten to do much with it before they started kissing.

Tonoko glanced back at the stove and placed his lips to hers again. "Can you escape before the food turns bad?" He smirked.

She smirked in return. "I think I could slip past you." She whispered.

His eyebrows rose slightly and he waited expectantly. She moved her hands to his shoulders and slowly moved it down to his hands. She pressed her lips harder to his and when he least expected it, she flipped him so he was pinned. "It's that easy." She whispered with a smirk.

Tonoko moved quickly to wrap his arm around her waist, keeping her pinned against himself. "Really?" He murmured as he looked down into her eyes. She wasn't that much shorter, but enough that made him feel like her had the upper hand.

She shook her head and laughed. "I could always result to calling your dad in here." She smirked.

Tonoko shook his head. "That's cheating."

She shrugged. "But I know that both you and your father want food, right?" She whispered. She leaned closer to place her lips to his neck. "You can kiss me later." She whispered. "Just let me finish making food so your mother doesn't have to."

Tonoko gasped at her lips against his neck and he felt as if his body had turned to jelly. His arm fell to his side and he leaned back against the counter for support, his eyes slightly widened as he looked at her with shock.

She smirked and shrugged. "I really do effect you greatly." She chuckled before running her hand down his chest quickly. She then turned back to the food and went back to preparing it. Tonoko's eyes watched as she walked away. He placed his hand against his chest where her hand was and turned away with a deep blush. He thought about her words more and finally closed his gapping mouth.
