A/N: These will just be a collection of Kyo x Kagura vignettes/oneshots that I'll mostly be eking out sometime at night when my history work is wearing on my nerves, hah. Anyway, I hope you enjoy my takes on this (not-so-canon-but-sorta-is) pairing! Reads and reviews would be greatly appreciated (flames or not.)


I. NOT A FLOWER, A BALLOON

He always thought that it was one day. One day that caused a stupid emotion to bloom in someone's gut. A stupid emotion called love.

In a sense, he was right. That one day, he just might have woken up and thought of black hair instead of brown, of a girl wearing a black dress instead of a multicolored one, of gray eyes instead of brown. But it didn't seem like that. Or did it?

He would never know how or why or when or what sparked a change. (But he would always know who, despite his attempts to avoid knowing.) Or the precise point that he went from picturing Tohru as the angel of his dreams to Kagura (who was definitely not an angel, and why the hell was she invading his thoughts so often anyway?).

But in the end, he had to admit that he was wrong. It wasn't just one day - it was several years; love didn't bloom - it burst into him, popping into his thoughts, his dreams; and love wasn't stupid - it was, however, a strange form of insanity. (Although if he was going crazy, it might as well be this way than any other.)

The one thing Kyo would never admit, though, was that maybe he was the one who changed, and that maybe, just maybe she had actually gotten him to fall for her. That maybe, she actually had held a piece of his heart all along, and it just kept growing bigger.

(That was a big maybe, though.)
