Love with a dog

I been watching the anime and they decided to stop on 19 and since I like to think of what could happen I will start from there for those of you who haven't seen 19 yet and don't wanna get it spoiled watch it first then read.

This story is in Taiga's point of view

I don't own Toradora! If I did I probably wouldn't make it that good.

I thought love wasn't this complicated, I thought I will always love Kitamura…but now it seems my heart aches as I see him run after his precious Minori. How could this happen? Me fall in love with that dog? That wonderful caring dog -sigh- , I don't know if I could face him again its nothing like Kitamura it's no crush. I sincerely love Ryuji, I feel tears in my eyes again…I just stopped crying and now I am at it again, I should get up at least go up into my apartment and cry there but my body feels so heavy…no my heart feels heavy, I know my best friend Minori will be happy with him I cant be selfish but I cant help it.

I drag my self into my room waiting for the next day, a long day where I will be alone without him feeling envious over my best friend but won't mention a thing. I wake up expecting a huge meal from Ryuji because of my helping with his new girlfriend, seeing him in a happy mood will make me hurt more but I can't let him see that, I will act like I always do…I am so pathetic. I get up and open the window expecting him to be there cooking like always but I don't, he must have stayed up late with her. I let my self in as always when he over sleeps which is almost never unless it has something to do with her.

I see the kitchen…its empty

"Hey dog why aren't you making my breakfast"

I yelled but I hear no sound nothing not even a faint snore coming from his room I open just incase. I see no one…his bed is made cleanly, his room tidy just as he left it before coming to the Christmas dance, how odd he isn't here. I check Yasuko's room to wake her up and ask where her son is, I open her door slowly trying to give her time to get adjusted to her hangover she always has one, but the same her beds made and her room clean just like Ryuji left it before the dance. I run around the house worried that I can't find them anywhere then I see it, I see a tiny note left by the phone next to his picture.

My name is written nice and neatly on the paper I read it slowly:

To: Taiga

Hey their Taiga it's me Yasuko, your probably wondering why we aren't home it's Ryuji he is very sick and I am with him at the hospital please don't worry we are both fine sorry about the breakfast…he will make it up when he is all better.

Love,

Yasuko Takasu

Ps. Sorry about ruining Christmas for you…

I felt my heart sink as I read the letter I know something bad must of happened to Ryuji I must let my jealousy and sadness go away for a moment I must be their for him. I run towards the hospital falling and slipping along the way, I didn't care about the small cuts and bruises I might of just made to myself I have to get to Ryuji's side and see why he got so sick. As I get there I ask the nurse softly and nicely to where Ryuji Takasu's room is, she points to the direction it's at and tells me the number. I get their panting hard as I look at the closed door reaching my arm out slowly nervous of what I might see in their.

I finally get calm and slowly open the door I see Yasuko on a chair sleeping their and Ryuji on the bed with his eyes closed looking horrible as if he has been in a sleepless night, his skin a bit green and his nose red. I looked at him shaking trying to control my tears. I sit by his bedside nudging him to see if he would wake up but his eyes stayed closed…I sat their for awhile trying not to cry but slowly tears came out of my eyes as I stared at him knowing he could never be mine now since he has Minori. I might as well tell him how I feel while he is sleeping at least to make myself feel better even though I know he won't hear me.

"Ryuji…I know you love Minori and you and her are probably already together and all but I just can't take it…I love you Ryuji, all the time we been together, all you done for me…I fell in love with you…I…I…I don't wanna see you with her!!!"

I cried harder as I spilled my heart out to him I bent down into his bed covering my face in the bed trying to calm down…..
