Me: Okay, here's the next chapter! Sorry it took so long so I'm just going to get right to it this time. Enjoy! (Don't own anything, remember that!)

Normal POV

Kaoru and Katsu circled each other like a predator about to attack their prey. They stood with hunched backs and alert eyes. Their knees bent so they'll be ready to launch whenever. After another minute of circling they lunged at each other simultaneously.

They toppled to the ground and rolled around on the grass. They both got up and started to throw punches, both doing well with the dodges. Then Katsu did his little trick and knocked Kaoru's feet from under her. She fell down on her butt and was met with Katsu's foot to her face but she caught it inches away. She twirled his leg across her head and he landed face first to the floor.

She got up with Katsu doing the same quickly. They did a short circle before Kaoru caught Katsu by surprise and was able to hit him square in the jaw which earned her a kick on the shin. Kaoru did a few flips making able for her to attack behind Katsu's back causing Katsu to flop on his stomach.

Kaoru twirled him around and threw a couple of punches to his face before sending Katsu sent Kaoru off and on her back a foot away. She gave a grunt while Katsu picked her up and threw her in the other direction not so far.

Kaoru tried to catch her breath as Katsu approached again sending her flying father now and hitting her against the nearest tree. Kaoru gave out a cough and a spray of blood coated the grass.

"What was that?" Kaoru choked out.

"I…" Katsu stuttered. "I don't know. I'm so sorry." He looked around searching for any witnesses and saw none. "I really am sorry. I gotta go. I'm so sorry!" And with that he's speeding down the street and away from her.

What was that? Kaoru thought to herself.

Momoko/Bubbles POV

I had stopped running almost as soon as I had started. I sat at a bench huffing and puffing while Mamoru straightened his hat beside me.

"Wow." he says. "That was easier than I'd thought. You know you're not much of a runner, right?"

"Tell me something I don't know." I answer now breathing steady.

"Did you know that you dropped all your candy on the way here?" he says.

"Yeah, wait what!" I stand up abruptly and check my purse. Sure enough my bag was empty. "Man!" I mutter.

"It's okay, you can have one of mine." he hands me a bag and I take it, slowly. Trying to make sure he wasn't going to pull one of those Katsu tricks and take the bag away.

"Thanks." I reply with the bag in my hands and putting it in my purse.

"Why do you seem so surprised?" he asks.

"Do I even have to answer that?" I say. He just shrugs and sits back on the bench. I sit down with him looking at the pale blue sky. My hand sat on the bench only inches away from Mamoru's. I could feel building electricity forming between us and I focused on the sunset. The colors mixing together like a wonderful painting and the sky beginning to darken.

As the first star settled into the dark night I felt something warm wrap around my hand. I looked down and saw it was Mamoru's. Cautiously, I looked up and saw Mamoru staring at me. He smiled and I smiled back.

"Mind?" he asks.

"Not at all." I answer. Then I put my head on his shoulder and we entwine both our hands together. "This feels good."

Miyako/Bubbles POV

After a late lunch and a quick stop at the mall, Mokoto walks me home. I stand next to him with one hand wrapped around my arm. Mamoru just let his arms hang by his sides.

"Today was fun." I say, looking up at him with a smile.

"I agree." he answers, smiling back. We walk in silence for a while until Mokoto brakes the silence. "So, tell me about yourself. Or maybe what kind of work your mom or dad do."

I feel my heart drop the slightest bit as I look down at my feet. I can feel tears stinging my eyes but as I answer I try to keep them back. "Well, actually… they're kind of dead." I answer.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to-" I cut him off.

"It's okay! I'm okay." I say. "I was eleven, when they had first died. It was a terrible car accident. They sat at the front of the car and I was at the back. But… the other car came out of nowhere." A small sob escapes but I continue. "They had covered me and… there was blood everywhere. I knew they were dead." A tear drops and the rest spills.

"I really shouldn't have brought that up. I'm so sorry." Mokoto says. We stop on the sidewalk and he wraps me in a tight hug. My skin immediately starts to tingle and I press my face against his shoulder letting the tears spill out. After a while, I calmed down and by the time I had lifted my head his shirt was soaking wet.

"Sorry." I apologized.

"You have nothing to apologize for." he says. "Come on. Let's keep walking." With Mokoto's arm still around me, we continued on.

"So what about you? You have anyone?" I ask.

"I've got Momma and my brothers but that's pretty much it." he answers.

"That's good." I reply. I wipe the dried tears from my face as we turn the corner to my house. "Looks like we're here."

"Yeah." He lets go of me but doesn't make another movement.

"Well, I guess I'll see you later?" I say.

"Yeah, later." he replies.

I walk to the door and my hand lingers against the door knob. I pierce my lips together and turn around running full speed toward Mokoto. I wrap my hands around his neck and plant a big one right on his lips.

When I pull away he looks stunned but his lips slowly spread to a grin.

"A girl making the first move." he says. "I like." Then he leans in and kisses me back.

Me: I know, not as funny but I hope you liked. Sorry it wasn't so long.

Butch: And you should also apologize for leaving us deserted again.

Everyone else: Yeah!

Me: You do know you could have just left, right?

Everyone else: Yeah! Wait, NO!

Me: Well, you could have. So next time you want to blame me for something like that, blame yourselves.

Boomer: That doesn't make any sense.

Me: Oh Boomer, it makes all the sense. Haha, Hahahaha, HAHAHAHAHA!

Brick: Okay, this girl is creeping me out.

Blossom: I totally agree.

Bubbles: Review, review, and review.

Everyone else: *runs and hides as far away from DD as possible*

Me: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
