Journey into The Mist ( Toshi & Kaji )

"Unless what?" she sniffed. Toshi cuddled herself into his arms and looked up at him with her big, Chibi, goo-goo eyes that could make anyone guilty. She squirmed again, not knowing the dangers of doing so. "I don't care if I'm not comfortable, I just wanna go to bed with you and sleep with you!" she said.

"Fine" he stammered 'your to young ... and you like someone else ... and it wouldnt feel right ' he thought bitterly a lone tear rolled down his cheek

"Eh? Kaji, what's wrong?" Toshi asked, turning serious. "Do... Do you really want me out? I could go if you want me to. What's wrong?" She looked distressed and sad as she kissed the tear away.

" No its not that I dont want you out " he said moving her mouth to his, he kissed her lightly " its just a part of me,,,deep inside wants to *bleep* you, but well I dont think its the right time I mean your still young and the other 'guy' is still out there." he said caressing her cheek as he kissed her again

"Oh... I see," Toshi said, letting him kiss her. "Kaji...I know how you feel...to love someone who loves someone else. I-it hurts, I know...but please, don't lose faith in me. I want to be with you." She sniffed, and hugged him tight. "I might never meet anyone like you, Kaji. You're irreplacable, and priceless to me. You make me happy that I had to get heartbroken to meet you. You're sweet and kind, and most of all you love me..." Her voice cracked at the ending.

They sat there for awhile just holding each other, Jr. had thought sleep would be a better option.

Kaji yawned " lets go to bed . . . Toshi Chan "

"Mhm..." Toshi gave him a relieved smile. After the board had been put away, she snuggled up to him under the sheets, trying to get the throbbing pain in her chest to stop.

Toshi was awake very, very early the next day (by her standards). She had woken up early that day to wash their clothes so she had something to wear.

Kaji woke to find Toshi missing " Toshi chan" he called " where have you gone "
'Yuudai Uchiha has her heart," he thought bitterly

"I'm here!" Toshi called out from the laundry room. "I'm washing our clothes... Kaji, can you come here for a second?"

Kaji walked towards the laundry room " oh goodmorning " he said upon entering

"Good morning!" Toshi smiled to him. Then she held up a pair of black boxers and pointed at a special area. "Kaji-kun, what is that thingy there? Did you get your pants dirty again?"

" Maybe " he said blushing

"Oh..." Toshi tilted her head in interest. "Hm...I need to bleach these, then." She sighed and put them in the washer. "You need new underwear. Want me to go get you some?"

" er bleach is on the shelf " he said quickly fleeing the room
'Next time use tissue' he cursed to him self as he entered raidens room and borrowed some pants and a t-shirt.
he walked down to the Laundry room " eh sorry just went to borrow some clothes "

"Oh, it's okay. I'm done with the laundry," she said, smiling. "Okay then, where do you want to eat breakfast? Ryouken-san said he gave you enough Ryo for the night, right?"

" Eh . . . im really not that hungry but theres a breakfast place in town " he said "and I think he gave me enough to feed you" Kaji chuckled

"Hey, I'm not a pig!" Toshi said, some humour in her voice. She put Neko-mi in her bag and held Kaji's hand as they walked. "Hm...How do you think Miru would act if I moved in with you?"

Kaji tilted his head " im not sure . . . I mean Raiden Sempai is with her I thought she would be coming here ... but then again Miru seems to be to strong she wouldnt go anywhere without wanting to " he said lightly " I guess she wouldnt care if you really wanted to and it would make you happy" Kaji thought aloud as they approached there destination

"Oh...thank goodness..." She smiled and leaned her head on his shoulder. "Hm...how would she react if you bleeped me?"

" Eh . . . how does she react when Aiden Bleeps you " he asked opening the door for her

"She's used to it... Oh, and you didn't answer my question yesterday. When we were in the closet, was it considered making out or was I doing it wrong?"

"well actually I did it wrong . . . I didnt really kiss back since being alone in a small dark space with you kissing me kinda knocked me out . . . but our 'lesson' last night would be called making out " Kaji said as the waitress showed them to a table.

"Oh, so that was...but I didn't actually kiss you back much," Toshi said, sighing. She sat down on the seat across him. "Wanna try again later?" she asked, smiling naïvely. "We can even play Shogi again, if you want."

" Em ... okay we can try again later " he said looking to the table, 'it' jerked to life at the mention of Toshi kissing Kaji with her tongue

"But can we do it at the hotspring? It's warmer there," Toshi suggested, not knowing of what her words were doing to him. "Plus, I can play with you in the water!"
