6) Home (Taiga and Ryuuji)

"But little do we know, the stars
Welcome him with open arms. "

On the day of graduation, Taiga sat on the train. Today shes visiting her long distance boyfriend Ryuuji, and she was surprising him at his graduation. She had talked to her old teacher and asked for permission to be in the school during the graduation ceremony.

Taiga excitedly ran up the stairs, looking at the place by the window where Ryuuji had caught her before she fell. Looking out the window, she saw the place where she had attempted to ask out Kitamura. She went into her old classroom and smiled at all the memories from the class. Taiga went to the class her boyfriend and other friends were in, smiling seeing everyone outside the window. Taiga hid in the locker like she did when the two had a small fight over an empty envelope in Ryuuji's bag.

"Taiga?" Ryuuji's voice echoed in the empty classroom, He walked over to the locker and opened it.

"I wanted to surprise you, you mongoraal." Taiga pouted, Ryuuji gently pulled her out of the locker and hugged her tightly.

"I missed you so much." Ryuuji sighed. Taiga smiled into his shoulder, not wanting to ever let go.

"I missed you too." Taiga smiled.

"Calling and texting wasn't enough, you where apart of my daily routine."

"I've missed your meals. My mom can't cook like you do." Taiga sighed as Ryuuji pulled away.

"You've gotten taller." Ryuuji smiled.

"Nope, not even an inch." Taiga pouted.

"Want to eat dinner at mine?" Ryuuji asked.

"Yes, please."

"Hey, Taiga." Ryuuji paused. "I love you." He smiled, Taiga blushed.

"You can't just say it!" Taiga got redder. Ryuuji just laughed, pulling Taiga closer to him. Taiga's head rested against his chest. Taiga never wanted to leave his embrace.

"Do you still want to get married?" Ryuuji asked, holding Taiga close to his chest.

"Yes." Taiga smiled up at him. Ryuuji bent down to give her a kiss, cupping the sides of her face. Taiga smiled as they pulled away. "Ryuuji, I- Love you." Taiga stumbled over her words.

"I love you too." Ryuuji kissed her again. The two pulled apart and smiled at each other. "Want to go meet up with the gang?"

"Yes! I didn't tell anyone I was coming!" Taiga jumped out of excitement, Ryuuji staired at her, falling in love all over again. The pare walked down the hallway, holding hands. Once Taiga saw Minori, she ran up to her, jumping on to her.

"Minori!" Taiga shouted.

"Oh my god! Taiga?!?!?!" Minori yelled, hugging Taiga tightly. "When did you get back?!?!"

"This morning. I came to surprise Ryuuji." Taiga smiled widely. The group caught up for a few hours, but then it became time for them to spilled for the night. Taiga and Ryuuji walked back to his house, Happy they get to go back to Ryuuji's home.

"What do you want for dinner?" Ryuuji asked, looking down at Taiga.

"Hmmmm, Pork!" Taiga smiled widely.

"You haven't changed much." Ryuuji smiled. Getting out the stuff to make their dinner.

"Ryuuji?"

"Yes, Taiga?"

"Can I barrow your clothes? I only have my uniform?"

"Didn't you pack a bag? You did ask to come here, right?" Ryuuji looked over at her.
