Tohru paled too. "Sorry Momiji." She said guiltily.

Ayame peeked around the corner and gasped. "What's been going on?" he asked. "I brought green tea icecream." He smiled

Shigure sighed and then went about finishing dinner.

Kyo raied a eyebrow. "Someone did something." He said then shrugged.

Tohru bowed her head. "Thank you for picking that book up for me Momiji." She said as she took the book.

Momiji nodded still pale. He was curious however as to why Tohru threw the vase. "Why're you throwing vases?" He asked.

Tohru glowered at Yuki who glared right back. "She was hugging Shigure." He replied.

Momiji snorted. "You pissed her off because she was hugging Shii-chan?" He asked in disbelief.

Ayame placed the nag on the counter and then patted Shigure's back. Then got out the dishes and then help Shigure with dinner. Putting it on the table.

"Lets just eat." Shigure said as he and Ayame sat down next to each other.

Kyo then moved closer sitting across from Ayame.

Tohru sat down between Momiji and Shigure. Yuki gave her evil looks throughout dinner. Tohru ignored them.

Shigure and Ayame and Kyo ate food in silence. They were WAY to quiet for this house. That was for darn sure. But Noone said anything.

"Hey Momiji? Did you grab the other two books I asked for?" Tohru asked.

"They were checked out Tohru. Sorry." Momiji replied.

"It's ok. I'm not mad. I'll just get them next time right?" Tohru smiled.

"Right." Momiji agreed. He grinned at the brunette and handed her a familiar pink box.

"Momiji you brought my favorite pocky! Thank you so much!" Tohru cheered.

Ayame smiled. "He had to have me buy those. But If I knew they were for her I would have no problem." He said with a softly smile.

Shigure watched everyone, off thinking about other things.

Kyp was chowing down. Oh how he missed the meals when he was gone. Hmm...real food. He thought.

Tohru finished her food and happily slid one of the strawberry flavored sticks into her mouth, humming her happiness with the treat.

Ayame smiled as he ate. He loved being with these people. But he just couldn't live in the manor. So he visits often. And bugs them all, a lot.

Kyo finished then sighed happy. "Thank you." He said softly and licked his lips of other food.

Tohru blinked. "You two have homework you know." She informed Kyo and without looking, Yuki as well.

Kyo nodded. "Oh right. Thank you Tohru." He said then stood up and ruffled her hair lightly and smiled at her before runing up stairs to start.

Ayame sighed. "Well guys." He said. "Thank you for the meal." He said softly. "I'll help with dishes." He grinned then started to gather things and then took them into the kitchen behind the slidding doors.

Shigure sighed. He then stood and took the rest of the dished into Ayame and then walked back out and smiled to Tohru and then disapeared and then went to his room. He sighed and pulled his glasses on and set down on his bed and pulled out his laptop and then started to work on his book.

Tohru decided to assist Ayame in the kitchen with the dishes.

Ayame smiled and then handed her the clean dishes. He was humming a soft tune as he do so.

Tohru dried the dishes he handed her.

"So what was going on when Momiji and I showed up?" Ayame asked her casually.

"Yuki pissed me off." Tohru replied.

Ayame nodded. "Ahh." Ayame said. "So do I want to know what he did?" He asked her as he then finished a few more dishes.

"He accused me of things that weren't true." Tohru replied.

Ayame nodded and then drained the water and then dried his hands and sighed. "He does that sometimes. What can I say. He might be a little hopeless. But he's my younger brother." he said with a shrug. "I think I'm going to go." He said then smiled at her. He then walked from the kitchen and then headed for the door. He was going home. He still had a lot of work to do.

Momiji went with Ayame.

A little while later. Shigure walked out of his room. He was well past 7ish. He sighed. Working for so long gave him a really bad headache. He then walked into the kitchen to heat up some water for some tea.

Tohru was asleep at the table.

Shigure looked down and then smiled softly. "Tohru?" He asked softly. He then sat down next to her with two cups of tea. "Tohru." He said then agian softly.

"Hmm." Tohru yawned blinking sleep out of her eyes.

"Here. I made you some tea." Shigure said then slid it to her. He then took a sip of his and relaxed a bit.

"Mmm. Thanks Shigure." Tohru yawned out as she stretched in her chair before taking a sip.

Shigure nodded. "Not a problem at all." he said. "I saw you sitting here. Thought it was needed." He said with a smile.

Tohru smiled at him.

"You alright?" Shigure asked. "Seem kinda lost in thought?" He asked.

Tohru nodded. "Just thinking about a few things is all." She replied.

Shigure took a sip from his till hot tea and sighed. "Yea." He said, then looked to her and gave her a soft smile.

Tohru returned his smile. "What do you like about me?" She asked shyly.

Shigure set his cup down and sighed. "Tohru. Your a great person. And you take such great care of my house." He started. "But honestly. I like alot about you. The way strawberries fill the room when you walk in. The way to smile when something happens. And when you threw that vase..." He laughed lightly. "I like that you express yourself." He said

Tohru smiled. "I think your perviness is cute. It makes me smile when you call me your housewife. No matter how much it annoys Yuki and Kyo." She admitted.

"They are most of the reason I do it all the time." Shigure said. "Just cause it bothers them both so much." He said with a smile.

Tohru giggled then laughed. "I see. How funny." She said.

Shigure shrugged. "Yea. I can't help it sometimes." He said then smiled at her.

"Mm. I think it's adorable." Tohru said.

Shigure nodded and then smiled at her. "Yea." He said then took a drink of his tea.

tohru finished hers and bid him goodnight through a wide yawn.

Shigure waved back to her then sighed as she left he then finished his and then set the cups in the sink and then headed to bed.
