Yuki's POV
It was getting very hard to breath. Even without looking up, I knew that Ms. Honda was panicking.
"Is it an asthma attack? And you have a fever, too, don't you? You know you're not suppose to over do it when you get sick. You just lie here for now." Haru's cloak come fluttering around me, and his smell enveloped me. It was actually... pretty soothing. "Go call the Main House and hurry."
No! I grabbed his ankle in alarm. I tried to tell him no, that it wasn't even that bad, but the air I needed to form those words just wouldn't come, no matter how hard I tried.
"Yuki!" I heard Ms. Honda call out with worry. I felt her kneel down and put her hand on my back... that felt rather good, too.
"You don't want the Main House, do you?" Good old Haru. He knew me well enough to know what I was trying to communicate to him without words.
"Kyo, you don't mind if we finish our fight later, do you?" "Uhh-uhh". I could barely tell, but I thought I sensed some... remorse in his voice? Maybe even worry!? But, that was impossible, wasn't it? How could someone who hated me ever since I was born worry about me?! It was impossible. Definitely a misunderstanding on my part. Yeah. The stupid cat was probably silently jeering at him for being so weak, or something. Yeah.
"We need to get him to Shigure somehow." Haru's voice cut into my thoughts. "Damn. I guess this means the endurance run is over, too. That really bites. I was winning!" See, I was right. For some reason, though, this sent a pang of resentment through my heart, something that I had felt so many times in that dark room with Akito. Why? Why would I feel something like that from Kyo's words? It just didn't make sense.
"I'd say we could take a taxi, but I don't know. It'd be a real pain if he transforms in the back seat."
"But we have to do something! I'll do anything!" Oh no, Ms. Honda. Now you've set ideas into his head!
"Okay. Maybe there is something we can do. It's lucky for me that your so cute. I mean, if I'm gonna do it, it should be with someone cute, right?" There was mischievousness in his voice. Haru, please don't do what I think you're gonna do!
POOF!
...He did it.
Then, I felt a hand on my back again, only this time, it didn't feel like Tohru or Haru. It was Kyo! I couldn't believe how good it made me feel. He touched me! His hands made a shiver of delight course through me. I loved it! But.. even if there was a chance for us, and even if Kyo did love me, it would be all over once Akito found out, and then Akito would tear us apart, just like he broke up Kisa and Hiro, Hatori and Kana, Rin and Haru, and even his own relationship with Shigure.
Wait. I'm thinking too far. Kyo probably doesn't love me. Heck, he probably didn't feel anything for me other than a burning hatred. He would probably end up with Tohru, anyways. Either way, it was impossible. Impossible. I thought this word like a mantra, until I felt myself being lifted off the ground. I started blacking out, and somehow a tear escaped me. Just a trickle.
Impossible. Impossible. And then the darkness fell over me.
