I'll always love you

Hey all, this is my first fanfic ever, so cut me some slack on the writing. But be firm in anything that I'm doing wrong as well.

Ok, this fic is about Yuki and Kyou, but the first chapter is all about Yuki and Tohru. So all you people waiting for Kyou and Yuki to get together, you'll have to read the next chapter. This is just the warm up chapter, so things will get better. Oh and please review! Ok, on with the fic!

Chapter one

"Tohru-kun, do you really have to leave us?" Shigure drawled, pulling at Tohru's apron. "If you leave all we will have to eat is Yuki's-kun's awful - I mean delicious- (cough cough) foods."

"Hn," Yuki glared at Shigure. "I'd like to see you try it sometime, old man."

Tohru laughed and shook her head, flicking her hair back and exposing her beautiful blue eyes, sparkling with joy. At this Yuki looked over at Tohru with a glaring look in his eyes. Tohru felt Yuki's intense gaze on her and she glanced at him and a slight blush swept her cheeks. She deliberately turned her full attention from the beautiful boy back to Shigure.

"Don't worry Shigure-san, Sohma-kun's cooking isn't that bad, and Kyou-kun can make delicious rice balls. You all will be fine."

"Hey, are you guys in here talkin about me or somethin?" Kyou said from the doorway.

"Oh Kyou-kun," Shigure purred, looping his arm lightly around the young orange-haired boy's waist, stroking his hair. "Tohru and I where just talking about how much fun you and I are going to have alooooooone."

"You sick bastard!" Kyou drop kicks Shigure.

"Owee." Shigure hits Kyou with his manuscript.

"BAKA!!!" Kyou starts chasing Shigure around the house.

"Oh come now Kyou" Shigure shouted as he ran, "your not going to let an old man like me beat you, are you? I mean Kagura's already got your ass kicked."

"Omae o korosu!" Kyou shouted. He finally caught up with Shigure and commenced to beating his head into the ground. Tohru knew they where doing this for her, to lighten the mood, and she was very grateful.

While all this playing is going on, Tohru felt Yuki's intense violet gaze never leave her. She could feel the heat radiating off of his body. She quickly excused herself, saying she had a couple more things she needed to pack. She exited the room, Yuki close on her heels.

"Honda-san, please, I beg of you not to leave. What about us? What's going to happen to us? We need to talk about this because-" He stopped, the words a little too painful. A million things where swimming in his head by now, all that he wanted to say, and do, but he knew that if he began Tohru might not leave. And no matter how much he wanted her to stay, his heart knew that this was right. Maybe.

Tohru sighed and grabbed Yuki's hand. "Come with me," She pulled him into her room. Together they sat on the bed. Tohru took a deep breath and grabbed Yuki's hands and held them tightly.

"Sohma-kun, I don't want to leave you or Kyou-kun or Shigure-san, you know that, but Aunt Mikaso's condition is getting worse, and grandfather needs me to go with her to the doctors in New York I know my grandfather, and he wouldn't ask unless it was very important. If I can't go, then she might have to travel alone, and you know I don't want that. Besides, its only five months, and my family really needs me. So please try to understand. I don't want you to be angry with me" Tohru's eyes welled up, and soft tears began trailing her cheeks.

Yuki reached his hand up and wiped the tears with his finger. Gently he traced her cheek with his fingers, and a soft sigh escaped him.

"Honda-san," He began eyes full of emotion. "I know that your heart is too pure to ever reject someone who needs you. And here I stand, trying to make you feel bad for leaving. How insensitive of me." He took her hand and laced her fingers with his. "I know you must go, so I will stand aside. But please don't find someone else, for it would break my heart." He lifted her hand and kissed each of her fingers.

"Sohma-kun, you know I would never!" cried Tohru. "I will think of you everyday that I'm gone, and when I come back, we can talk, and maybe we can decide our future." She began talking faster, the words tumbling over one another. "I mean, its only five months, and five months isn't that long. I had a friend who waited a whole year for her lover, and when he came back, they married. That was good. Oh, but I also had a friend who cheated on her love while he was away so I-"

Yuki laughed softly, placing his finger over Tohru's mouth. "I get it."

"Gomen nasai "Tohru mumbled, staring at the carpet.

Yuki shook his head. "It's fine. But I know you have to leave now, so hear me out. You mean the world to me, so all I want is to see you happy. So please have fun, and please be safe." Yuki kissed her hand once more, then sighed. He dropped her hand and stood up and walked to the door. At the doorway he stopped and turned around. "But remember Tohru-chan, I will always love you." He tilted his head and smiled, then left.

Tohru stared at the doorway for a few moments, feeling the tears in her throat but willing them to stay inside. Suddenly she shivered, feeling oddly cold, and walked toward the steps to bid farewell to Shigure and Kyou.

So, did you like it? Maybe? A little? Hmm. I see. Oh, in case you didn't know, the last thing Yuki says is very important, so don't forget it. And he also uses her name and puts 'chan' at the end of it. Awwwww! I've always wanted him to do that. Anyways, I know the first chapter was kinda corny, but it has to lead up. I promise the next chapter will be much more centered on Kyou and Yuki. But, if you want the next chapter, you gotta review!
