Aloha! I am back! And my spell checker doesn't like to work, so there are probably going to be millions of little mistakes and quite a few zillion big ones. But we will have to deal, now won't we! Oh wait! It just turned on! We are in good hands now, my friends! Good hands. I repeat, good hands.

Okay. Down to business! For those who have not read the story Kyo's New Obsession, this is a continuation on that story! But never fear! I will briefly summarize what happens in that story in this extra long authors note.

But before I get to that, I have to warn the people that have read Kyo's New Obsession. Skip these author's notes. Unless you forgot everything. Then you can read it.

I do recommend reading Kyo's New Obsession first. (Though I will warn you. The first couple chapters suck and have no real relevance to the main plot. I was kind of going off at a different angle and then I ran out of ideas…) This story will ruin the ending of it. But, to each his own! I will now review. Do not read if you are counting on reading Kyo's New Obsession.

Plot ending of KNO (Kyo's New Obsession): Tohru, through various circumstances, has had her memories cleared of all of the Sohmas. The entire zodiac, the student council, Shishou, Kunimitsu, Hana, Uo, and all of my OCs (Tsujiai, Rei, Sana, Kaji, whom I will get to later,) were gathered together and the curse was revealed and BROKEN. But then things go wrong. Tohru thought Kyo died (looooong story, Read to find out,) and she went crazy. Even when she is told that Kyo is alive, she doesn't believe. When he (Kyo) is brought before her, alive and kicking, she has weird fits. This is when they decided that they should erase her memories. Hatori was given charge of erasing the memory everyone, who wasn't part of the zodiac and Shishou. This, my friends, is how it happened. This was taking place at a clearing at Kaji's summer house just after graduation. So if they mention a clearing, it is most likely that clearing.

The story is picking up from just about where I left off. Kyo is in college at TU (Tokyo University) and he lives in an apartment all by his lonesome. He was walking back from the store after going shopping and he runs into Tohru. Actually, Tohru trips over his legs, but that is beside the point. Yuki is married to Machi (I will explain how this possible in the story…) and they have a two year old little girl. Yes, I am changing that. She was originally one, but for my purposes, she needs to be two. Or else her talking wouldn't make sense.

Anyway. Let me describe my OCs one at a time. I won't be using them quiet as much as I did in the other story, but I will mention them so you'll need to know who they are. They are basically just friends of Kyo's. I, being a Kyo supporter, wanted Kyo to have some friends and it turned out that I used them a lot more than I planned to… I'll start with my favorite and then do all the others later.

Tsujiai Hibiki: He plays soccer with Manabe (the vice president) and is good friends with him. He is easy going, and very dramatic. He, like Rei, likes to tease Kyo constantly. He is now attending a school in Korea, with a scholarship to play soccer there.

Okay! Now that I have that out of my hair I can start! I think this is the biggest A/N I have ever written. And believe you me: I write LOOONG A/Ns.

Oo0oO

Kyo paced up and down the carpet of his tiny apartment. It was as if wearing a gouge in the off white carpet would help him think. But it wasn't. He kept pacing anyway. Kazuki and Az, his orange and brown cats, spun around his ankles, feeling his distress. Though he no longer transformed or wore the beaded bracelet, it seemed that his connection to cats, however annoying it was, had remained. The purred, trying to sooth his frazzled nerves, but it was to no avail. Nothing could help him

He was trying to make sense of what had just happened. On minute he had been asleep on the park bench and the next, he was looking into the eyes if a girl he hadn't seen in three years. He had been on his way home from the store after a binge shopping trip and had taken a detour through the park to escape the homework that he wasn't looking forward to. The next thing he knew, Tohru had plopped down on his toes. Literally.

But it wasn't the fact that he had seen Tohru that sent his head spinning. He was still trying to get his head around that one. But it was what she had said when she had seen him. And what had happened.

"Should I go?" Kyo thought as he began the long march across his living room once again. "I have no idea what to do."

He passed in front of the TV, brushing his fingers across the screen. The gentle touch left finger tracks in the dust. He hadn't had time for watching TV, so it had remained unused.

Kyo scrunched his eyebrows together and halted his march. His cats, which had been following him, stopped as well. They sat back on their haunches and stared up at him with glassy eyes.

"Meow?" They asked. Kyo had nicknamed them his "Old men" cats. They made him feel like an old lady, cooped up with nothing but cats for company. But since he wasn't an old lady, he had changed it to "old man."

Kyo brushed his fingers through is longish orange hair then rubbed his hand down his face. He realized that he still had on the sunglasses that Mii and Ritsu had sent from Italy. They were on their honeymoon there and seemed to be enjoying themselves. Kyo took them off and slipped them into his pants pocket. He walked over to his favorite arm chair and sat down in it. It helped him think.

He thought back over what had happened.

Flashback"T-Tohru?" Kyo stuttered.

He didn't know how long he had been asleep for. Perhaps it was a few minutes or maybe longer, but it was long enough for the frozen contents of his bags to get the other items a bit wet. He jolted awake when her felt pressure on his extended feet and heard a large crash. He looked down to see a young girl sprawled out on the ground. It seemed that she had tripped over his bags of groceries. She got to her knees, bowing as she did so and started picking up the things of Kyo's bag that had spilt out after her tumble. She seemed reluctant to let Kyo see her face, she was so ashamed. Her puffy bangs did a good job of hiding her.

Kyo leaned down from his position on the bench to help her out, silently. He noticed a large, platinum engagement ring on her finger. It was a nice ring, he had to admit. He was still slightly sleepy, so he was quiet throughout his work. It was only when the girl rose that he saw something familiar. Tying her straight brown hair up was a ribbon that Yuki had given Tohru.

The girl snapped to attention when she heard her name. She seemed to not have seen Kyo before, judging by her reaction to his orange hair.

A sudden soft expression crossed her face.

"K-Kyo!!"

Kyo blinked and then slapped his forehead. This was not supposed to be happening. He was supposed to stay out of her life.

"Crud." He thought to himself. "Crud, crud, crud, crud, cru"—

RING!! RING!!

The phone brought him back to his senses and he jumped. He hadn't expected the phone to ring. It rang a few more times before Kyo stood up and answered it. When he did he answered with the usual.

"Hello?" Kyo said into the mouth piece.

"Oh! Hello Kyo! I didn't expect you to pick up. An's been making me call every ten minutes. She is so excited."

It was Machi. Her voice was calm and soothing; just the thing that Kyo needed at the time. Kyo could hear frenzied footsteps in the back ground. Those, he could guess, belonged to An, their only daughter.

"Oh, hold on Kyo." Machi huffed and then there was the sound of her hand covering the mouthpiece. Kyo heard muffled conversation through her hand blocking off the conversation. An's squeaky, high voice cut through while Machi's soothing voice calmed her down. It was a full minute before Machi got back on the phone.

"An wants to talk to you. I hope you don't mind." Machi seemed tired, but what could you expect from someone with a daughter like An?

"No!" Kyo insisted, surprised. "I like to talk to her!"

"Okay! Okay!" Kyo could tell that the words were not directed toward him, but to the impatient little girl on the other end.

There was the muffled scratching of the phone changing hands and then An's labored breathing took control of the phone.

"I'm almost two!" Was her greeting to Kyo.

"That's pretty cool!" Kyo nodded. That was actually very cool.

"Are you coming?"

"Coming?"

"My party!"

"Your party?"

"My party!" An was nearly hysterical. "We going to dinner for my party. I only want you to come! Pwease?"

Kyo thought for a second and then it all came back to him. Before he had gone shopping, his empty stomach and empty fridge nearly driving him to the edge, he had listened to his messages. On them, Machi had called and said something about dinner. This must have been what she was talking about. Now that he looked back on it, he couldn't believe that he hadn't guessed. An had been talking about nothing else but her birthday for the last three months. Even when Machi calmly explained that she still had a ways to go before she was actually two, An still stuttered away in her beginning talking. Kyo was pretty sure that An's first word had been Birthday, if not "kitty."

"I'll have to talk to your mom about it." He answered. "What do you want for your birthday?

But An had not heard the last bit. There was a rustle, a creaking noise and then a "Talk to mommy now," and suddenly Machi was back online. She sounded nearly as surprised as Kyo felt to suddenly be back on the phone.

"An wants we to talk to you about 'it'?" Machi asked; the question was apparent in her voice.

"I told her that I would have to talk to you about her birthday party." Kyo explained. He lounged back in his chair as he leaned over the arm to pull the lever that would release the foot rest. With a grunt, the extension popped out and Kyo was placed into what would be considered the more comfortable, laying down position.

"Oh." Came Machi's nonchalant reply.

"I still can't get over how good she's talking! Are one year olds—excuse me, two year olds—supposed to be talking that well yet? Kyo exclaimed.

"Nope!" Machi cheered. "Thank goodness that she got her father's brains."

"She's gonna be a genius child." Kyo muttered.

"Like her father."

Kyo muttered something under his breath and Machi asked what he was saying. Kyo answered with a quick "NOTHING! NOTHING AT ALL!! NOPE!"

"So," Machi asked, changing the subject with an almost business like quality. "Can you come?"

"To the party?" Kyo asked, making sure they were on the same topic.

"Yes. To the party."

"I guess. I have nothing else to do and I haven't seen An in a while."

"We all know. An's been pestering us about it. I asked her who she wanted to invite and all she said was you. I even asked about other friends and she held out that she only wanted you. She even planned, with my help of course, the dinner because she doesn't want you to be bored."

"I'm never bored when I'm around her! She always keeps me entertained!" Kyo insisted.

"I told her that, but she was worried that if you ever got bored you wouldn't ever come see her again. She knows that her daddy likes Dinner parties, so she thought it would be a good thing for you too."

"Well you should tell her that I am a lot different than her old man." Kyo muttered into the mouthpiece.

"What?" Machi asked. "I couldn't hear you."

"Tell her I'll be there!" Kyo declared, falsely bright.

"Sounds good!" Machi seemed preoccupied by something. Probably An. "And I'll tell you: all she's been talking about are those cats of hers. She even carries around a cat stuffed animal. I think it was that one that you gave her."

"I catch your drift!" Kyo laughed. "Tell An I'm look forward to seeing her!"

"Will do." Machi laughed as well and then hung up.

"Well," Kyo said into the empty space that was his house. "Now I have something to do."

Immediately after her slapped his forehead. The first sign of madness was talking to yourself. The second was owning an unhealthy number of cats.

Oo0oO

Okay!! I hope no one hates! This is going in completely un-edited, besides my amazing spell checker (yes, I am being a kiss-up! PLEASE WORK FOR ME FROM NOW ON!! PLEASE!! :begs on bended knee: )

I hope you don't mind the amazing number of OCs! Most of them won't even show up…

And also, a bit of trivia for my veteran readers: the cat that Kyo gave An is the same cat that he got on graduation! From the one stalker girl! Do you remember her?

Anyways… You'll have to deal with me and my anti-Furuba mood. I have been writing prince of tennis for far too long and it is about time I change my mood.

And now that you have me and my (amazing) story, I will be leaving you. Forever. I am going on a cruise around the world until I am thirty. Yeah, I wish. I am actually just going on vacation (correction: One week of misery; two weeks of fun) and I won't be back for three weeks. I totaled that up for you just in case you are like me and don't do the math. One (week of torture) plus two (weeks of fun) equals va-va-voom!

Review!

PS: can you tell me if my summary makes sense at all!! Thankie thankie!
