"It's been such a long day...." Tohru sighed as she walked home in the dark from work. "You shouldn't be walking home in the dark..." Tohru quickly looked behind her on slightly empty street to look at the person who spoke, but saw no one. She turned back around and bumped into someone, making her fall back onto the ground. "He he, your still as clumsy as ever!" A girl was standing in front of her. She had orange hair that had black, red and green stripes going in it with greenish blue eyes with small hints of gray in them. she was wearing a red long sleeved shirt with a black shawl over it and a pair of jeans with chucks and a black back pack with a happy bunny sticker. "need some help?" she smiled and held out her hand. "yes, thanks you." She accepted. When she stood up she noticed something about the shorter girl. "JEN-CHAN!" Tohru hugged the girl. "yea! - CANT BREATH!!!" She yelled. "ops sorry..." Tohru laughed and let go of her. "long time to see." Jen said once some color returned to her face. Suddenly something tackled Jen. it was another girl, as tall as Tohru. She had darkish brown slightly wavy hair that went a little past her shoulders and dark brown eyes. "Found ya cuss!" She started to give Jen a noggy while holding her in a head lock. she was wearing a long black trench coat and a pair of dark jeans with another black back pack. "AHH YOU LITTLE BITCH!!" The other girl yelled and pulled away holding hand that Jen had bitten. "heheh. hey Tor-chan! this is my cousin that I went to live with!" Jen smiled and pulled her friend over to the girl. "Yo, I'm Leo. I guess you that friend that Jen just couldn't shut up about?" Leo laughed and got up.

"Where are you guys staying?" Tohru asked, hoping that they could get together. "We would like to know that too..." Jen and Leo said at the same time laughing. "Come to my place and we'll find a place for you. it's too cold out here and its dark." Tohru pulled her jacket closer around her. "Ok, but do you have any food?" Leo asked as the walked down the road, into the forest. "is all you ever think about is food?!" Jen asked. "Yes, of course. At least what I can talk about around you. but if you want to know what else I think about then-" Leo was cut off by Jen. "that's all I need to know." She sighed. "so Tor-chan, who are you living with now? after you mom died we stopped getting letters." Jen asked. "you never responded so I guess I just stopped." Tohru sighed. "but I met some really nice people and there letting me stay with them!" Tohru started to tell them about every one (except about the zodiac) while Leo started to mumble about food and every once and a while Jen would yell for her to shut up. "Are you two siblings?" Tohru asked. "NO!" they yelled at the same time. "We're cousins silly!" Jen laughed. "Weren't you listening to her earlier?" Leo asked. "err no I was still trying to get the fact that Jen was here." Tohru laughed.

"So this is it?" Leo asked when the reached the Sohma Household. "yep, this is it!" Tohru said and entered. "Guys, I have company, I hope you don't mind!" She said and Shingure appeared in the room. "Ahh hello. More high school girls?" he asked smiling. "Ack!" Yuki came around and hit him in the head. "Don't mind my cousin. He's a bit of a pervert." Yuki smiled at the two girls. "Don't worry, I know how that feels." Jen glared at Leo. "What?" Leo smiled innocently. "Tohru is it ok if I raid your fridge?" Leo asked. They said yes and after giving directions Leo was in the kitchen making some noise. "Are you guys sure you really don't mind her in there?" Jen asked a little uncertain. `yes why?" Tohru asked. "Just at home...she makes a hug mess. Good food, but big mess." Jen sighed. "DINNERS DONE!" Leo was in the Dinning room. it was filled with food. Yuki peeked into the kitchen and it was cleaner than before. "Well Jen seems you where wrong about your cousin." Shingure laughed and sat down.

"So Jen, Leo how do you know our little Tohru?" Shingure teased. "'your little Tohru?" Leo smirked in a funny way till Jen hit her in the head. "What????!!!" Leo asked as she started to eat her food. "nothing..." Jen sighed. "Well, after Jens parents died, they said in there will that she was to be sent to her closest cousin! ME!" Leo laughed as she put some meat in her mouth. "Uhh Leo, not to be rude but what is this?" Yuki asked looking at the steak. "Ops! I forgot! you guys don't eat American food!" Leo smacked her head. "Don't worry, its really good. and she did it to me too." Jen laughed as the ate some rice into her mouth. "mmm, this is really good." Shingure said as he tried some of the food. "Anyway. After I moved to America to live with Leo, who I thought was a move sensible person....."

(Small flash back)

. `Uhhmmmm hello? I'm here to see Leo, I'm her cousin." Jen asked the guy at the door. `Uhhh sure hold on a minute. Come on in." He led her in and up the stairs. "It was the end of these big finales at school so don't be shocked at what you see." he laughed as her opened the door. On the bed was Leo, with messed up hair, still in dirt cloths and holding an empty bottle. "Told ya, good luck in getin her up before 12." he guy laughed and walked out.

(End)

"it seemed that Leo was a large achoolalic that lived with her old friend and his friend. Leo was just sipping her soda and looking around innocently. "What about now?" Yuki asked. "She only has a shot a night before going to bed...hopefully." Jen sighed. "Not my fault..." Leo smirked. "Who was the one that started drinking at age 6!"Jen yelled. "ok so I wasn't that good of a kid! but it was all our aunts' fault! She gave me my first shot of vodka!" Leo crossed her arms in defense. "Anyway, We didn't mean to spend up your time, but we must go and find a place to stay. We had no luck earlier, and that was when Jen ran off." Leo stood up and bowed slightly. "No problem, you can stay here." Shigure asked and Yuki agreed. `I mean your only staying for a couple of week's right?" Tohru asked. "Yes, we have school starting in 3 months." Jen smiled.

"Then it's done! you're staying!" Yuki smiled. "YAY! I get to stay with Tor-chan!!!!!!!!!!" Jen hugged her. "Well, I have to go get the rest of our stuff, so I'll be back in a minute soon." Leo walked out of the house. A minute later, after everyone was close to finish cleaning they heard something coming down the road and stop. It was a modern. "That would be Leo!" Jen laughed. "What's all the noise about?" Kyo came down stairs and sat on the couch. "Kyo-kun you missed the great dinner our new guest made!" Tohru smiled and hooked arms with Jen. "What? And who's that short brat?" Kyo asked. Suddenly Leo's heavy treanch coat was on his head along with her motercycle helmet. "Don't talk bout my cuz that way." Leo leaned over the couch into his face, which she uncovered for a moment and stuffed back in his face. She now had on a tighish no sleeved red shirt.

"Well, you and Jen can sleep in Tohru's room if that's ok." Shigure Smiled. Leo and Jen looked at each other in fear. "Uhhh, I'll sleep on the roof." Leo pointed up. "Why?" Yuki asked. "Well...it's not good that I sleep with Leo. We might kill each other in our sleep." Jen smiled. "At least sleep on the sofa!" Tohru said. "I won't let you sleep outside in the cold!" She stated. " err ok if you'll just let go of my arm, its losing feeling." Leo muttered. "Good!" She smiled and let go. "hey Tor-chan, lets stay up talking about gouts stories again! I have some new scary ones!" Jen laughed. "O great I'm going to be next door to giggling/screaming girls..." Kyo muttered after her got free of Leo's jacket. "WHAT DID YOU SAY!" Jen turned to Kyo with a very scary face.

Suddenly Kyo was behind the couch with a large fist print on his cheek. "how did that get there?" Leo asked innocently. "Come on cuz, time to knock you out..."Jen sighed and dragged Leo over to there bags she brought in. "Ok where did you hide it?" Jen asked. "Hide what?" Tohru asked. "NO!! ITS MINE!" Leo grabbed a red bag and held it close to her. "Tohru, help me pin her down." Jen smiled. After a few minutes of struggle they finally got the bag (Shigrue had pulled out a piece of shiny metal). "ok what type do you want tonight?" Jen asked as she opened the bag. "Jacks!" Leo smirked. "NO! Here." Jen took out something raped in paper. "awww...." Leo took it and unwrapped it and put the chocolate in her mouth. "MMMMMMM." Leo suddenly feel back and asleep. "very interesting.." Shigure gazed. "It's the only way she'll get to bed." Jen smiled and dragged her cousin to the couch and got her on it and covered her up.

"Come on Jen-Chan! I'll show you our room! It'll be like old sleep overs we use to have!" Tohru dragged Jen upstairs with some of the bags. "Wow, looks like Jen takes care of her older cousin more than Leo does of her." Shigure smiled. "Come on, I'm making sure you go to sleep." Yuki dragged Shigure upstairs. Kyo looked at Leo and just walked up stairs shaking his head.

(4:39 am)

"damn it...can't sleep...shouldn't have taken that nap in the middle of the day.." Kyo muttered as he walked downstairs into the living room. he looked on the couch to see that Leo wasn't there. He walked into the kitchen and saw her making breakfast. "what are you doing?" he asked and leaned on the counter. "I'm making breakfast and getting out into the city. I'm going to look for work." Leo keep her eyes on the eggs she was making. "Why? aren't you guys going back in a couple of weeks?" Kyo asked. "Well...I lied to Jen. I left the house back in America because those boys....well lets just say it was starting to get a little more than I can handle. So I thought, well Jen had a really good friend here. And her friend's mom just died. I'd leave her with a couple grinds and go...." She trailed off. "Go where?" he asked, he was interested now. "you know...curiosity killed the cat." Leo smirked and quickly walked out of the house and a minute later he heard her motercycle ride down the road and he couldn't hear it any more.

"She couldn't know....No, it impossible." Kyo shook his head and looked at her food. he grabbed a plate and some food and left the house to the roof.

(Tohru's room)

Jen and Tohru where sprawled out on her bed. Suddenly a little boy jumped into the bed. "Tohru-Chan!!!!!!!!" Momiji smiled and was about to hug the now away Tohru but she stopped him and pointed to the still asleep Jen. "OOO who's she?!" he asked. "Huh??" Jen slowly woke up and yawned. "Good morning!" She smiled. "OOOO Who are you?!" Jen asked. "I'm Momiji! Who are you?" he asked. "I'm Jen! Can I call you Moji-Chan?!" Jen asked, getting over her sleepiness. "Cool, hey Tohru-Chan, there's a lot of yummy food down stairs! It's good!" Momiji smiled and ran downstairs. "Well, I guess we should get dressed." Tohru laughed, they where still in there clothes from yesterday. "yea I guess." Jen smiled too and they quickly got dressed. (it's now around 8:00)

When they got downstairs everyone but Ryo and Leo where around the table eating. "hummm, looks like Leo-chan's cooking!" Jen sat down next to Momiji and started to eat. "It's really good too." Shigure said while Tohru sat down in between Jen and Yuki. "Where is Leo-Chan?" Yuki asked. "I don't know. She's usually up early but she would still be around here." Jen started to get more food. "Well something's up with Kyo. he keep saying stuff about `curiosity killed the cat'." Shigrue laughed. "OO! that's one of Leo-chan's favorite saying! I don't know why. but whenever I say it she just smirks and says "god thing in not a cat." Jen stretched her arms. "I know what Leo Chan is doing!" she gasped. "She's trying to trick me....she's hiding somewhere.....I have to hide from her!" Jen got up. "I wane hide too!" Momiji stood up beside her. "Ok then lets go!" Jen smiled and they ran out side.

At that moment Kyo decided to come downstairs. "hey Kyo, what's got you all riled up?" Yuki asked. "That cat thing..." He said after a while. "It's just a saying Kyo. its one of Leo's favorite." Tohru smiled as she started to clean the dishes. "err well, I'm going out for a while." Kyo picked up his jacket and left before any one could say anything. "Wow, something has got him." Shigure pondered a while. "Do you think it was that cat thing still?" Tohru asked. "I don't know.. maybe." Yuki helped Tohru with the dishes.

(With Kyo) As Kyo walked into the city he felt something in his pants pocket. He felt a piece of paper and pulled it out. it said `hey, since you where so curious this morning, I decided to let you in on a little secret......but you have to meet me at the small coffee shop in town. the address is at the bottom of this paper. be there by 9:00 or else I shale answer none of your questions! -Leo' "but how did she-!" Kyo just stared at the letter. `let's see that's not far...and I have 15 minutes so I better go.' he thought to himself.

He entered the coffee place and looked around. he took a seat in the way back and thought she must be late. "So, you actually made it." Leo was sitting next to him. "How..." "When you live in a house filled with guys, you learn how to sneak around." Leo laughed. "How did you get that paper in my pocket?" Kyo asked. "I have my ways." Leo smirked. "Why did you give it to me?" Kyo asked. "well, since I'm leaving soon, I find you the closest one I can trust in that house." Leo laid back and sighed. "What?!" Kyo asked. "You remind me of someone." Leo looked at the cup of hot chocolate she had with her. "Who?" Kyo asked. "I said I would answer your question but that is one I shale not answer." Leo stared him in the eyes.

"Anything else? or has the cat got your tongue?" She asked and when she saw his reaction she smirked. "Hummm I guess that's a no? ok then I'm going." Leo got up. "Wait." Kyo stood up. "Yes?" She turned to look at him. "did you find a job yet?" he asked. `Well, no. but I'm going to keep looking." Leo shrugged. "Well...I was wondering if.." He trailed off. "If you could come with me?" She smiled. "Of course." She took the sleeve of his shirt and dragged him out of the cafe. "You don't mind riding a motercycle do you?" She asked and pointed to her silver motercycle. "Uhhh do I have to hold onto you?" He asked. "no! there's a back grab thingy..." She waved to the back. "Good." He sighed. "Let's go!" She smiled and got onto the motercycle.

(back at the house) Yuki and Shigure where reading and Tohru was doing some studying. "So what are we going to do? I'm bored." Momiji disappeared to Jen. "me to.....I wonder where Leo is....I hope she gets back soon so I can annoy her!" Jen smiled. "OWCH WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR!!!!!!!!" they heard yelling and quickly got out of the closet and into the front of the house where everyone else was gathered to see.....
