I do not own Fruits basket or any of it's characters.

Tohru glanced across the table at the brooding orange haired youth. He had his chin propped up in his palm and his crimson eyes roamed everywhere slowly except to meet hers. Sighing she pushed back some stray hair and stood up, causing his to look up in the sudden disturbance.
"Do you need anything?" Tohru asked in a almost worried voice, that maybe she had done something wrong.

"What? Oh no.." Kyo said a bit startled. He looked away again to one of the near walls. They were home alone and it was awkward staying there with Tohru. Shigure had gone to a meeting with Mine and the writing company he worked with and Yuki had gone out to his "secret base". He stood up, resting his paml to cup the back of his head as he walked.

"Please, whatever I did I am sooo sorry! I didn't mean too, I mean how could I when I don't know what I did to make you so mad at me...you don't have to speak to me if you don't want to. I'll just go start dinner.." Tohru babbled off quickly to the startled Kyo who hadn't been gived a chance to respond. He put her hands on her shoulders and pushed her against the wall as soon as she went to move for the kitchen.

"Don't say sorry for something you don't even know if it is your fault yet," he said slowly still avoiding her eyes. Her turned slowly to see her bright blue orbs starying at him widly. "I mean...It could get you into trouble or something," he said. He could feel her breat hit his cheeks softly. Her hair had a strawberry smell to it, that made him feel a bit light.

"Oh...so I didn't do anything?"

"No."

"Well thats good, I was worried I had done something to upset you!" she said obviously relieved. Her well known goofy smile spread over her face and Kyo couldn't help, but to smile slightly in return.

He released his grip on her shoulders, but neither of them made an attempt to move. He put back on his tough attitude and looked away. "Obviously."

He nearly jumped in surprise when felt her kiss his cheek lightly. Not knowing what she was doing at first her turned abrupty knocking her in the head with his own. There was a collective groans and then he felt something warm stumble into him. There was a large 'poof' and orange smoke billowed out from where Kyo once stood.

" I am soooo sorry!" came the shrilly voice of Tohru who had forgotton about her head. She had a red spot on the side of her head where she had been hit. The cat blinked up at her still in a bit of shock.

"You stu..." he began to yell before he caught himself and the look of extreme worry on the girl's face. "...it's fine.." he corrected.

"I'm such an idiot, why do I always do such terrible things? I shouldn't have tried to do anything I am so sorry!" she wailed clutching her head in frustration.

" I said it was fi..."

"Ugh! I can't do anything right, I should never have done such a stupid thing.."

"Tohru, dammit I said it was fine so shut up!" the cat yelled after becomming extremely annoyed with her ranting.

Tohru's shoulder's sagged in shame at herself and she quit talking. Gathering up his clothes strewn about the floor she turned away waiting for the sign that he would be turning back to normal. It didn't take long before the 'poof' echoed through the room and the room filled with orange. She slammed her eyes cloed and looked at the wall that Kyo had been staring at earlier, holding her hands out full of clothes to them. She felt him take them from her then a thud on the floor.

She looked down and saw the clothes back on the floor where he had dropped them. Looking up she saw a still clotheless Kyo. She let out a shrilly scream waving her arms wildly turning away.

An unconcerned Kyo simply stared at her, his eyes narrowed slightly. After she quit screaming he turned to see her standing, face pressed up against the wall, her hands covering her eyes. "You don't have to say sorry for everything. People make mistakes. You sound like Ritsu when you do that. It is annoying," he said slowly.

"I'm so.." Tohru said before stopping herself and shutting her mouth. She felt Kyo grab her arm and pull her to him, not so close that they were touching, but enough to press his mouth to hers in a kiss. His eyes were closed, but Tohru's remained open in shock. She didn't refuse the kiss of course, she felt her heart flutter in her chest and she returned the kiss.

After a bit, the kiss broke and the both looked away from eachother, not speaking. Tohru touched her lips lightly with her finger, her eyes wide. Oh my gosh, Mom! My first kiss!

Kyo bent down to pick up his clothes slowly. "Dont'!" Tohru said quickly stopping him.. "I mean.." she faultered blushing brightly. She walked up to him and kissed him again. It felt good. To show him how much love she felt for him. It really made her feel like a weight was lifted off her.

She felt Kyo's hand rest upon her lower back as the kiss deepend. She closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around his neck, still keeping a safe distance away. Her knees faulted and they both sank to the floor, still holding eachother. He tugged at her shirt until it went over her head. Surprisingly to herself she let him a bit too eagerly. They wrestled with clothes a little bit longer before she lay completely vulnerable to him.

" La la la..hum hum hum," Shigure sang, his hands tucked into his kimono as him and Yuki walked down the dirt path back to the house. Yuki had his eyes closed and his head bowed slightly in deep thought.

"How has school been for all of you?" Shigure asked finally.

"What..Oh yes. Fine I suppose," Yuki said being startled out of thought. "Why?"

Shigure shrugged his shoulders, "You know..the New Years is comming up in a few weeks...i talked to Akito and he said that Tohru could come if she would like.." Shigure said becomming serious. He always became serious with respect when he talked about their God. Yuki and the others still thought of Akito as a male lf course. Kureno had told him that Tohru knew about Akito's true gender. He had hoped she had kept the secret.

Yuki, who hadn't disagreed with the "he" thing confirmed that she hadn't. "What? I thought it was only for the Sohmas?" Yuki asked a bit startled, worry also was tinted in his tone.

"That has hoq it always has been..but Akito said she could come."

"I think there is something more to it. Akito doesn't like Tohru. He doesn't try to hide it much either," Yuki said staring at the ground grimly.

"I am aware of that. It's Tohru's choice if she wants to come," Shigure explained as they entered the house. "I'm sure if she does she will be fine alone. Akito was very disapointed when you and Kyo missed last year..and oh what a wonderful dance Momiji preform almost breath taking," Shigure sang before he noticed Yuki's horrified face.

Turning he saw a nude Tohru and Kyo asleep on the floor. "Tohru...OH MY SWEET TOHRU! What has this filthy cat done to you!" Shigure wailed dramatically waking both of them with a start. Kyo's eyes widened in horror as he saw Yuki staring at them, and Tohru shook her head violently obviously embarrassed beyond belief. They both scrambled for their clothes, putting them on not saying anything. As soon as Kyo finished dressing he left to go sit on the roof without saying a word. Tohru stood numbly as Shigure and Yuki coninued to stare at them in shock.

"No not my innocent Tohru.." Shigure whined only to recieve a sharp jab in the side by Yuki. "It isn't out business, now lets go. I'm sure this is uncomfortable for Miss Honda," Yuki breathed turning around and leaving the room.
