Kei's POV

"Here we are" she said as she opened the door to the first bedroom. "It's amazing" Kou said as he looked out the bay window. "Perfect for a possible nursery" Laura said as she smiled. "It would be a perfect bedroom for a baby" Nic said as she smiled. "Eventually Baby Girl" I said as I kissed her cheek. I could tell the idea of motherhood was eating her up inside, I was so grateful that she was willing to wait till we were ready. "Why don't we look at the master bedroom?" Laura suggested as we all walked to the next room. "Oh my god" Nic said as her eyes darted to the walk in closet. "I could definitely live here" she said as she looked at the closet, it was big enough to be a small bedroom. "Let's see the master bathroom?" I asked as Laura led us into it. I was shocked, there was a large soaking tub and a shower that could fit 3 people comfortably. "Holy shit" I said as I smiled. "We have 2 other houses to see" Tetsuro said with a smile. He was right, I need to remain open minded.

"Let's see the backyard" Nic said as we walked outside to a large backyard with a pool and hot tub. "There's enough room for Moose" Nic exclaimed as she smiled in utter joy. "Look at that hot tub" Kou said as he grinned. "The pool's pretty exciting too" I said with a smirk. "You guys want to see the garage?" She asked as we nodded. "Wow, we could fit all the cars in here" I said as I looked at the extended 10 car garage. "It's nice" Nic said as she smiled at me. "That's all for this house do you want to see the other 2?" Laura asked as we nodded and headed to the car. "What did you guys think of the first house?" I asked them as we drove. "I liked it, I could definitely see myself living there" Nic said with a smile. "Me too, I can't wait to see what the next house looks like" Kou said as I smiled. "Maybe it will be better" Tetsuro added. News flash: it was not. We pulled up to the house and immediately noticed how small it was. It was about half the size of the first house.

"Do we even want to look at this house?" I asked them as they shook their heads no. "I don't think this is the house for us Laura" I tried to say with the nicest tone I could muster. "Okie dokie, lucky for you we have 1 more house to see" she said as we went to the next house, it was actually larger than the first one. "I have high expectations for this one" Nic said as we got out of the car. "Let's head inside then" Laura said as she unlocked the door. "Wow" I said as we walked into the door and immediately was greeted with a marble staircase. "Holy fuck" Nic said as she gasped. Tetsuro was wide eyed the whole time. "First thing you see is obviously the large marble staircase" Laura said as she began the tour. "Let's start in the kitchen why don't we" she said as we followed her into the large kitchen. It had a double sink set up and a large stove. "It's amazing" Tetsuro said as he looked at the large fridge and raised cabinets. "Let me show you the best part" Laura said as she pointed to a steel door.

She opened it to reveal a walk in fridge. "Fuck yeah" Tetsuro said with a smile. "I'm in heaven" he said as he kissed me out of pure excitement. "And that kitchen island" he yelled excitedly. This was definitely the house for him. "Next is the dining room" she said as we walked into the large dining room, it was big enough to fit 2 large tables. "Wow, think of how many people we could fit in here" I said as I looked around the room. My eyes focused on the crystal chandelier that shone brightly in the center of the room. "Nic? Wanna see the library next?" Laura asked her as she nodded. The library was equally as big as the rest of the house, enough shelving to fit thousands of books. It was definitely Nic's happy place. "I love it" she said with a larger than life smile. "Next is the living room" Laura said as she walked us into the biggest room in the house, it could fit all of our friends no problem. "It's perfect" Tetsuro said as I nodded in agreement. "Let's head downstairs next" Laura said as we headed to the basement.

As soon as we walked into the basement I saw Tetsuro and Koutaro's eyes light up. It had a bar and theater combo. "I thought you guys would like it, let me show you what else is down here" Laura said as she led us into a home gym. "This is the shit" Kou said as he pumped his fist into the air. "Next is the 5 bedrooms" she said as we headed to the 3rd floor. "5?" I asked confused. "Yes, that is a downside to this one" Laura explained. "The bedroom's are large though" she added. I guess that made it slightly better. "This is the master bedroom" she said as she led us to a bedroom about 2x the size of the main bedroom at home. "Look at the balcony" Nic said as she looked outside. "I could definitely see myself waking up here every morning" Kou said as he grabbed my hand. "Me too" I said as I kissed his cheek. "You guys haven't even seen the bathroom yet" she said as she led us to a large bathroom, I was in pure shock. It had a rather large bath tub and an even larger shower.
