FUDGING THE TRUTH

She licked her fingers slowly, carefully schooling her expression as she swallowed.

"You don't like it," Kyo said quietly.

"Oh, no," Tohru exclaimed, "It's not bad… it's just…"

"That's okay," he sighed, "You can tell me the truth, you know. I can take it."

Tohru smiled and took Kyo's hand. "Your recipe just needs some work."

"Really?" Kyo took a bite of his own brownie and pulled a face. "You're right, this sucks!"

"I never said-"

"No, you didn't," Kyo chuckled, "But you never make the truth hurt." He smiled softly, "And that is what I really love about you."
