As Yukina came around the corner from the tea shop, she saw a tiger, Leiko, and Rei. "Leiko-san, Rai-san!" She called walking over and waving. She stopped next to them and and looked at the tiger. "Oh, I was about to ask where you got a pet tiger from." She said laughing.

Rei closed her eyes, 'I hope Negi-san doesn't mind that I just about let everyone in...' Truth was she had managed to get in through a open window, which was strange because Negi normally was careful about things like that.

Kyo looked up hearing Yukina and smiled. "Haha very funny..." he said rolling his eyes. He looked at her and asked,"So why are you here Yukina? Not following the white tiger?" he said jokingly and smiled. He was happy she was here. His tail flicked back and forth happily and his ears twitched as he heard smaller sounds that they couldn't sense he was in cat form.

"Oh, I went and ate some Ramon, and the I asked the cashier if there was a good tea shop near by, and he sent me here, Said it was run by Negi Sohma." She said smiling. She laughed and looked down at the white tiger, and fought the urge to tickle behind his ears, something she loved to do since that was the softest part on Cats, course Cats seemed to avoid her, sensing the dog in her.

Kyo smiled and nodded. "That reminds me I havent eaten yet... Another thing to put on the check list I guess." he said happily. He purred happily and walked to Yukina. "Hey can you scratch behind the ears?" he asked rubbing his head against her leg. He couldn't help it. He loved the feel of being scratched behind the ears and it was a cat thing to rub up against people.

"He should be on his way back." Rei replied, shutting the back door and then moving back into the front of the shop, where she seated herself at one of the tables. She folded her hands neatly on top of her lap and stared at the patterns ingrained into the table before her.

Kyo smiled and then quickly walked to Leiko. "I need these." he said taking his clothes in his mouth and quickly dissappeared into the bathroom. Not long later there was a poof and he quickly got dressed. He then stepped out and smiled. "Sorry about that." he said looking at them.

Yukina watched as he came back out dressed. "Sorry, I guess I took to long." She said with a smile.

Kyo smiled at Yukina happily. "Its fine. Maybe next time." he said lightly and sat down pulling up a chair next to Leiko. "Right. Ill make a mental note of that." he said and smiled his pointed canines glinting slightly in the light. He then looked at Yukina and patted a chair next to him. "I wont bite, promise." he said and chuckled.

"Thanks." Yukina said laughing, but she watched his canines glisten while she sat down. She ran a tongue over her own slightly pointed teeth, glad that she filled them down so that no one could notice. "So, what are you guys doing here?" She asked trying to think of anything to talk about.

Kyo shrugged. "I need to try and talk to Negi... He's family after all." Kyo said being completely open with her. There was no point in not telling her. It was true. He had avoided his cousin before but he wanted to understand his family now... Meeting Leiko and Yukina and talking to them more made him want to try and open up.

"Oh, you guys lose contact or something?" She asked placing her hands between her knees and leaning forward. She smiled at him. She really wondered why a lot of the Sohma's didn't talk to the cat that much. "Do you not talk to him because of what he is?" She asked innocently.

Kyo shrugged and looked at her. "Im not exactly sure what kept me from talking to him... And have you ver seen a cat fight? It's not exactly pretty..." he said and shook his head. "I guess... I just want to at least try and talk to him..." he said and closed his eyes thinking about it. Would the cat even talk to him or would he turn away because everyone knew he was Satori's so called pet?

"Oh, well your a nice person, I'm not sure anyone would want to fight you." She said brushing some hair our of her eyes. She smiled and watched as he closed his eyes. "You seem worried, I can sense it, Dog instincts." She said placing a hand on his shoulder hesitantly.

Kyo nodded and looked at her. "I.... Don't want to be known as Satori's pet... And sense she is usually so harsh upon Negi I'm afraid he won't give me a chance to explain... But I wouldn't blame him..." he said softly and then looked at the floor. "I guess I'm just wanting to make a new name for myself... I don't want to be anyone's pet." he said completely trusting her with his true feelings. Alot of people thought he had no idea about the name he had been given... But he heard and saw the signs... And it was not what he wanted...

"Oh, I never heard anyone call you that, Well, if he's a good person he'll give you a chance to speak." She said patting his back. "And as far as being Satori's pet, just be yourself, don't let people calling you things get you down, Mariam's nephew knew about me being a dog, and he always called me a mutt, or little Puppy." She said with a sad smile. "But I always put a smile on my face, and ignored him."

Kyo smiled and nodded taking heart in her words. "Thank you Yukina..." he said softly and looked in her eyes. He couldn't look away but finally he forced himself to look away. He looked at the floor again feeling embaressed that he had been staring. He just couldn't help it.

Yukina bit her lip as he stared into her eyes. His were soft and golden(?) and seemed to shimmer in the light. When he looked away she was slightly disappointed. But she smiled when she got the feeling of embarrassment from him. "You know, since I'm going to be living here now, I think I should get a job....know any place that is hiring?" She asked once she got her heart under control.

((right about the eyes.))

Kyo shrugged and looked at her again. "I don't work... But I help train kids at the dojo..." he said and looked at her. Why couldn't he stop looking and staring? He smiled and shook his head. "Im not a person to ask that." he said and chuckled.

"Oh, That's all right. That must be fun, training kids. I've always loved kids..." She said trailing off. "Hey, you think you could train me once?" She asked seriously. It could be fun, plus it would mean more time with Kyo. She looked into his eyes again and almost couldn't pull her eyes away.

Kyo smiled and nodded. "Sure why not?" he said happily. He was bursting with happieness. He would get to triangle Yukina... And he would make every second count that he spent with her.

She smiled over joyed that he had actually said yes. "When would be a good time?" She asked leaned a little closer, but then she remembered Satori's rules about being in relationships and pulled back. She hated her obedient nature. She sighed and let her hair fall covering her now flushed face.
