When There Was Me And You…

It's funny when you find yourself

Looking from the outside

The red-haired Sohma, stared on in silence from the classroom window. Looking at his 'rival' as said boy chattered joyously with his 'treasured friend'. Both walking contentedly across the school grounds…

I'm standing here

But all I want

Is to be over there

Kyou leaned against the doorframe, watching as Tohru hung the newly-washed laundry to dry…

Another moment, where he'd just watch the 'object-of-his-affections' pretty much, like a tiger would its prey… waiting for the right time to pounce… Or in this case to make a move…

But sadly for this certain feline, the right time has yet to arrive….

Why did I let myself believe

That miracles could happen

'Coz now I have to pretend

That I don't really care

Shigure watched in wonder as the stubborn red-head blankly stared at Yuki and Tohru as they got ready to go out… probably going to the garden? Who knows? Who cares?

He shifted his gaze back and forth from the two jolly pair to the

solitary

sulking

KITTEN…

Nodding to himself, he calmly - err… daringly, in my opinion - padded next to the silently fuming red-head

"You'll never get anything done by just staring… Our dear, Tohru can't read minds you know…" The cat merely raised a delicate brow, sighing the canine continued…

" If you don't confess your true feelings --"

"We're just fresndi…"

"Eh?"

"I said, we're just friends"

And with that he disappeared up the flight of stairs…

I thought you were my fairytale

A dream when I'm not sleeping

A wish upon a star

That's coming true

As night came the young teen laid down the rooftop underneath the beautiful blanket of sparkling diamonds, thinking about…

things

But all that came to mind was a certain, cheerful, naïve girl's images…

I swore I knew the melody

That I heard you singing

And when you smiled

You made me feel

Like I could sing along

Kyou let out a low growl as he stormed towards the Sohma household,

He was pissed, Boy was he PISSED!!!

The day just seemed to get worse and worse!

Heck! So worse! He even forgot why he was pissed in the first place!!!

As he reached out, towards the door… it opened!

"Kyou-kun! There you are! Daijoubu ka? Come in! Dinner's ready!"

And then…

She smiled, her usual, gentle, caring, heart-warming smile…

Boy! Never did smiles become this relieving, not to mention, contagious

"Hai!"

The cat gave his own little smile, completely forgetting all anger and worries as he followed the some-what angelic girl inside…

But then you went and changed the words

Now my heart is empty

"I'm going to be returning home to my grandfather…"

She gave a sad, weak smile, the usual shine in her eyes gone, as she discussed the matter with Shigure

"NANI?!?!"

Both turned towards a certain red-head who just barged in… particularly the one who just pried the doors open… His face contorted into a mixture of several emotions… shock, anger… and another not defined… was that… emptiness?

Now even I can tell

That I confused my feelings

With the truth

Because I liked the view

Kyou had never felt this way…

I mean really! How could one silly, naïve girl make his heart skip a beat every passing chance they meet?!

But…

He had to admit… He liked this new feeling…

When there was me and you…

Tohru…

OWARI
