(OOC: Okay, I'm going to go ahead so we can move this along, Negi=red Haru=Black, kay.)

Negi finished grilling the hamburgers, keeping a watchful eye on his guests. "All done." He announced cheerfully as he set a platter of juicy burgers on the table. "Haru-chan, why don't you accompany me to the kitchen and I'll fix you that onigiri I mentioned earlier?" He asked, wanting to give the poor cow the opportunity to leave the room while the others ate.

Haruka nodded and headed for the kitchen, only too happy to not watch so much beef being devoured. It gave her chills just thinking about it.

"Excuse me for a moment." Negi bowed and followed her into the kitchen. "I'm truly sorry, Haruka. I didn't expect you to drop by today." He apologized again.

"It's fine, Negi-san." She shrugged, not wanting to think about it anymore.

Negi set about throwing some rice balls together for her, still feeling a bit guilty but wanting to hurry so he could tend to his other guests as well.

Yukina took a hamburger and looked it over suspiciously. She pulled it apart, then put it back together. deciding that it was all right, she took a small bite. It was delicious. "Oh wow, that's really good." She said wiping her mouth. She continued to eat it until it was gone. "Wow, I never knew I was missing so much...goodness." She said with a laugh.

Kyo chuckled watching her eat while he devowered his burger as well. "Yeah.... It was as good as the forst time I had one." he said and wiped his mouth. He noticed Yukina had ketchup on her cheek and grinned. "Hey you got ketchup on you cheek." he said pointing to his own cheek. "Never mind I got it." he said and wiped the ketchup off her cheek. He smiled and leaned back in his chair. "So was it better then you thought it would be?" he asked smiling.

"I suppose..." Rei murmured softly. Her eyes flickered to the back door when sounds of eating reached her ears, "Why don't you go back inside to eat Leiko-san? I want to watch the clouds for a bit more."

((wow I feel like all the people I roleplay with know each other in real life...man do I feel left out O - O))

OOC: I only know Metal. He's my husband. So don't feel too sad.

Haruka watched as Negi prepared the onigiri, marveling at how easy he made it seem. In just a few minutes she had a plate full of perfectly shaped rice balls. "Thanks." She smiled politely. "You can go back and eat too. I don't mind." She picked up a rice ball and bit into it, not wanting to appear ungrateful. Surprisingly, she found that the first bite reminded her that she was actually hungry and she set about cleaning the plate.

Negi hesitated, but he had other guests to see to and he still wanted to talk to Rei as well. "Excuse me, Haru-chan. If you need anything please let me know." With that he ducked back into the dining area. He grabbed a hamburger with only a little guilt and then looked around for Rei. "Where is Rei-chan?" he asked upon not finding her.

((Aww hugs Aoi, it's okay, I don't know anyone in real life on here either))

Yukina blushed when he wiped the ketchup off her cheek but smiled. "Yes, it's even better then steak." She said laughing. She was lost in his eyes again, but only briefly. She was sort of scared that Satori would find out about their little kiss earlier, she had heard that if you disobeyed her she would stuff you in a closet. She closed her eyes and sighed. Just forget about it, he doesn't like you anyways. She told herself as she opened her eyes and forced a smile. "You know, this was really good, and thank you Negi-san, but I think I'm going to go back to Haruka-san's I'm a little tired." She said standing up and grabbing her purse.

Kyo looked up surprised as she got up and wished to go with her. He wanted to ask her about the kiss but decided it was best not to. He also had to stay and at least attempt at explaining Satori to Negi. "Are you arlight to walk?" he asked softly standing up hoping she was okay as she looked.

"Yeah..I'm fine. I guess I'll see you later Kyo-san, Negi-san, Leiko-san, bye everyone." She said wishing that Kyo would offer to go with her, then turned and walked out the door. Thankful for the breath of fresh air. She walked slowly towards Haruka's. "God, this is hard." She sighed running a hand through her hair.

Rei's eyes flickered to the door once again when she heard her name. Should she tell him she was out here? It would probably be smart...Her eyes went back to the sky. Maybe later, right now she was relishing in the few moments of peace she had left. The feast was approaching fast already as it was. It was tomorrow night wasn't it? She sighed and raised a hand to knead at her forehead, right...she could try to not piss Satori off until the festival was over. No prmises though, she seemed to get pissed off quite easily whenever it came to Rei...it was strange really...

Nagi smiled at Leiko, "Thank you, Leiko-san. Please, enjoy." He fixed another hamburger and took his plate and the extra one outside. "Rei?" He called, not wanting to disturb her but feeling a bit bad that they hadn't had a chance to catch up as they had planned. He held out the lovely hamburger with a small smile. "I thought you might be hungry. You can't eat clouds, you know."

Haruka had soon decimated the plate of onigiri, but she didn't want to go back to the main room until the others were done eating. She pulled a cookbook from the shelf over the counter and leafed through it, pondering things she would like to know how to cook.

Kyo watched silently around the room. His head was swimming with possiblities of how to tell Negi about the Satori subject. But it was a touchy subject for them all. And the idea of revealing his help to Negi was something he didn't want to do. He just wanted Negi to be content with getting by as he did and believe it was a complete act of kindness from Satori... Maybe then they all would be a little kinder to her.

Deciding she didn't want to go to an empty house, Yukina found a small park that was completely empty of little kids. Sighing she walked over to the swings and started to swing thinking about everything that had recently unfolded. She really liked Kyo, but she doubted Satori give would her consent to for them to be together. Would Kyo even think about starting a relationship with her? She wanted to cry, everything was just so overwhelming.

Kyo stood and decided that he would talk to Nehi later. "I mus be off as well Negi... But I promise you i will stop by and fill you in on the... Satori situation." he said and bowed. "Thank you for your hospitality." he said and smiled. He left after biding everyone a farewell as well. He then walked threw the village causiously until on the out skirts and smiled seeing a huge tree. Jumping onto a low branch he climbed up to the top and spotted Yukina all alone. Wondering what was wrong he quickly jumped out of the tree and walked towards her. "Hey," he said softly looking at her softly.

((I'm dropping out of this RP because it's too fast for me to keep up))

OOC: But we haven't gone anywhere in days??

((even when it is moving it is hard for me to keep up))

Yukina screamed and fell out of the swing when Kyo spoke her. "Oh my gosh! You scared me." She sighed rested her hand on her chest. Her heart was beating like crazy. She stood up and brushed the dirt off her clothes and sat down in her swing again. "I thought you had to talk to Negi-san?" She asked with a joyful smile. She was glad that he had came. Maybe she could bring up her nerves and ask him what he thought of the little kiss.

Kyo was shocked seeing Yukina fall and scream. He nearly jumped out of his skin. "Sorry!" he said and metally smacked himself. He forgot people aren't used to the being silent and then randomly saying hi thing... He would have to work on that. "Yeah... I'm gonna talk to him later... He has to catch up with other people right now...." he said and offered her his hand. "Come on let's get you up." he said pulling her up easily. He smiled and looked at her. "So i thought I'd come walk with you... Or scar the crap out of you." he said and chuckled.

"Looks like you did a good job of doing both." She took his hand and pulled herself up and smiled. His hand felt warm in hers, almost as if their hands were perfectly molded for each other, she blushed and pulled her hand away and sat in her swing again. "So..." She said after a few seconds of silence.

Kyo sat in the swing next to her and looked at the ground trying to figure out how to say this. "That kiss... Right before you were hugged..." he started and looked into her eyes. "Was that serious? Or playful? Or what?..." he said softly and looked at his hands again before looking at her again.

"I..It was..I guess..serious." She said looking up at him. His soft golden eyes catching the sun and twinkling. She smiled and looked down at her shoes and couldn't bring herself to look at him. What if he thought she was stupid for even trying to make a move...or what if he told Satori and she punished her...

Kyo smiled and nodded. "I was... Hoping you would say that..." he whispered and looked back at her. He knew how dangerous this was... But he didn't care. Everything about Yukina seemed to draw him in. "Dont move..." he whispered softly getting closer to her. He just wanted to try one kiss. Just to see if the rumors were true... That there was sweet electricity between two in love.
