Love

Ryoma woke up to find Ruby by him on the bed, sleeping with Karupin in her arms. He looked around the room and saw no one else was there . They must have all went to eat something. He gently nudged Ruby.

Ruby stirred a little then slowly opened her eyes. She looked up at Ryoma's beautiful golden cat-like ones. Her eyes widened slightly and then they blurred.

"Ryoma," she whispered. She slowly got away from Karupin trying not wake him, then glomped Ryoma, as she sobbed into his shoulder.

"I'm so glad your ok. Baka! What were you thinking! You could have died," she choked out.

"I'm sorry, and by the way," Ryoma took Ruby by the shoulders and made her face him. He smiled at her. "I love you too."

The space between them was gone in an instant. Ruby couldn't move at first but then she realized what happened and kissed back immediately. They broke apart soon for air.

"And here I thought you didn't hear me," she giggled.

"I hear everything, and thank you for the lullaby," he laughed, the door then opened to reveal the regulars and the rest of the adults. They were all smiling and some grinning.

The all knowing mother and Fuji were smirking smugly but then started chuckling. Ryoma and Ruby blushed.

"Did you hear that?" she asked. They all nodded, trying to hold back their laughter. Nanjirou, Momo, and Eiji were having the hardest time with that.

Ruby got up and slammed the door in their faces.

"No eavesdropping!" but she knew they would anyway. She laughed a bit and then jumped on the bed. Ryoma laughed at her.

"I'm glad your back," he said happily.

"I'm glad to be back, and I'm glad I have such wonderful friends and family," she smiled at him.

"I love you," he whispered getting closer.

"I love you too," she whispered back as they shared a passionate kiss, that was soon interrupted by Karupin who got between them and started purring. Ruby and Ryoma laughed, while still holding hands and petting Karupin.

Both of them knew they were going to be together for a very long time, and nothing could be more true.
