Chapter One: Peeping Sohmas
The Sohma residence usually never rested at any hour of the day, and this morning was no exception.
"You damn rat. Think you're so smart, eh pretty boy? You couldn't shoot a fish in a barrel!" the orange haired boy yelled in his fighting stance.
Calm, silver-haired Yuki began to get a little frustrated with his opposite companion. "Honestly, can't you think of anything better to say you dumb cat?"
Kyo narrowed his eyes and quickly tried to get a cheap shot at Yuki. But swift and quick, Yuki threw the busy cat over his shoulder and through the thin wall, into the garden.
Tohru gasped with her hands clamped over her mouth. "Oh no! Kyo!"
She rushed through the wall tear and kneeled next to Kyo, whose face was buried in the garden's soil. "Kyo, are you alright?" She gripped his shoulder trying to get him up.
"Don't waste your time on him Miss Honda," Yuki smoothly spoke as he leaned out of the broken wall.
Tohru ignored Yuki and still continued to tug on Kyo. As usual, Kyo admitted defeat with his huffy attitude. He shoved Tohru off his shoulder and quickly got to his feet, "Get away! I don't need anyone's help! One day I'll get that rat, all on my own!" Then without anything else, the pride-injured cat sprinted away into the woods.
Tohru was use to Kyo's rudeness and didn't hold it against him at all. She always just smiled in his wake of anguish and left well enough alone.
Yuki walked over to Tohru and escorted her back into the house.
"I'm sorry Miss Honda. That cat needs to learn some manors. No doubt I'll teach him a few later…" the handsome boy thought of demented things to do to his cat friends for being so cruel to Tohru. There's more than one way to skin a cat and he would prove that, oh how he would.
Tohru just kept her silly little grin and looked up at Yuki. "Please don't start anything with Kyo, especially not on my account. I just want as must peace we can have."
Yuki agreed, but still wanted to smack around Kyo.
Shigure's voice soon came ringing into the room, "Tohru why don't you make something delicious for breakfast, well then again everything you make is delicious!" The rugged writer entered the room first with a grin then he observed the newest destruction to his room. He let out a sobbing sigh, "Oh Yuki, how many times have I told you to fight Kyo outside! If you keep this up we'll have that supply store satisfied for the next few hundred years!"
Tohru gleefully smiled and offered to fix the wall, but neither of the Sohma's would allow it. So she agreed to make some food as they would try and make a temporary patch till they could make a trip to the supply store.
"Where's that damn cat? At least he could help clean up his mess," spat Yuki as he put some panel on the wall.
Shigure shook his head, "By the looks of it Yuki, I'd say you threw Kyo out the wall. I'm pretty sure that wasn't exactly by his request."
Yuki side-glared at his older cousin and retreated from the wall, "I have homework to do, you can finish this up on your own, can't you Shigure?"
Shigure was about to protest but Yuki had disappeared from the room. The dog muttered little curses under his breath has he continued to fix the wall. Then suddenly a great story idea came to him. Something involving a lonely trophy wife and a construction worker. He quickly left the room to his study to get it all written down.
Yuki actually didn't have homework from school. He usually finished it in class. The task he really wanted to conquer was to track down Kyo and give him a piece of his mind about how he acted towards Tohru.
Tohru entered the half-done wall room with news of food. But she found no one in there. She called for Yuki and Shigure, and only the faithful dog showed. Shigure said Yuki was either doing homework or out to kick the tar out of Kyo. For Kyo's sake, she hoped homework. Alas, she didn't find Yuki in his room.
Now Tohru was begging to stress about what would happen if Yuki found Kyo. Would they fight worse than they had before? She felt bad for Kyo. How many beatings could he take in such a small period of time?
She entered the dining area and saw Shigure helping himself to Yuki's dish. She silently chuckled to herself and then stated that she would be out back taking a bath.
Thankfully the Sohma residence was far away from the local streets and suburbs, otherwise someone might have heard the bitter cat and mouse go at it.
"You should be nicer to Miss Honda. She's the one who after all feeds you and cleans up after you!" Yuki punched his rival in the cheek.
Kyo barely flinched by the blow to his face and retaliated. He began kicking and throwing punches, but never landed any injury to his opponent.
"I never asked her to!" the orange haired boy growled aiming a kick at Yuki's head, but was stopped by the ankle and slung into a tree trunk. Yuki walked over to him, glooming over his bruised body.
"I demand you apologize to her Kyo. She might seem unaffected by it, but it doesn't mean it doesn't hurt her!" He grabbed Kyo up by his hair. "Do you understand you filthy cat?"
Kyo screwed up his face and slapped Yuki's grip away. "You have a lot of nerve you rat. You have no right to call demands of me and expect me to comply. You must be dreaming if you think I would ever do anything you ask me to."
No matter how much Kyo hated to admit it, Yuki was right. He shouldn't have been so mean to her. He would try his best at apologizing to her the next time he saw her. These types of things weren't exactly his strong suit.
Yuki began walking away from Kyo. This aggravated Kyo a lot. So he got right up and followed him, yelling insults after another. Yuki just simply ignored him, which annoyed Kyo even more.
Finally the rear of the Sohma house appeared, as the boys approached.
Kyo finally stopped harassing Yuki and looked around. He saw that the bath was steaming with hot water. Previously last week Yuki and he had broken the privacy walls of the bath. So now when they all bathed they had a first seat of Mother Nature.
Then all of a sudden Kyo spotted Tohru walked over to the bath. Her hair was put up and she was wrapped in a white towel. She skimmed the top of the water, testing its warmth.
Kyo hadn't noticed that he had stopped walking, but Yuki had. "What are you doing you dumb cat? Kyo?" He followed Kyo's gaze to the bath and Tohru.
"Oh shame, come now, let her bathe in peace," he tugged on Kyo's shirt sleeve.
Kyo just stood his ground, for some reason he didn't want to look away, yet he knew it was so wrong. Apparently Tohru hadn't noticed the two boys, since the bushes and trees were concealing them quite well.
Kyo crouched down like a cat behind a bush, his eyes peering over it observing the scene before him. Yuki glared at him.
"You little perverted flee-bag! Allow Miss Honda some privacy! Don't make me beat up again!" He yelled in a hushed tone.
The mischief orange haired boy grinned devilishly up at the disapproving rat. "You know you want to watch just as much as any other male would. Besides she's seen us naked quite a few times. I think it's time we have some sort of peep show ourselves."
Yuki was taken back by this and thought about it. It is true, Tohru has seen him and other Sohma's naked plenty of time, also he did often fantasize about the doting girl. But he would be damned if he would be demoted to a peeping tom. Well in this case a peeping rat.
Suddenly Yuki sat down next to Kyo, crouching in hiding.
"Finally come to your senses you rat?" mocked Kyo.
Yuki snarled, "I'm only here to make sure you don't try anything with Miss Honda."
"Right. What ever you say you pervert," Kyo chuckled and then pointed back towards what the prize was.
Tohru had left the bath area while the boys were deciding, more like Yuki, whether to stay or not. Soon she resurfaced, still in the same attire they last saw.
Both boy's eyes were glued on the female; waiting vigorously for her to reveal herself to them unknowingly.
Tohru inhaled the aromas fuming from the bath. This is just what she needed was a nice relaxing bath to take her mind of the morning's fight. She had been hesitant to take a bath since the two karate kids broke the walls surrounding the bath.
She felt as if she wasn't the only one in the area, as if someone was watching her every movement. But she convinced herself it was just paranoia.
She removed the towel and hung it on a hook and slipped into the warm water. Her muscles quivered in delight. She sighed in relief and slid deeper into the water.
Both of the boys' eyes were just fixated on Tohru. Their heart beats were rising to great amounts. "She's quite lovely, is she not Kyo?" Yuki whispered, not taking his eyes off Tohru.
"Lovely? She's the best thing I've ever seen in my life. I had no idea she was so fit and well gifted. You know?" Kyo smirked and he too did not take his gaze of her.
Yuki though felt a sudden rush of guilt and broke his gaze. "I feel horrible. How embarrassing for her and us if she found out. We are terrible, we must go now Kyo."
"You can, I'm staying. I want to see her dry off, no doubt that will be another sweet vision for me," grinned Kyo.
Yuki shoved Kyo. Kyo shoved back. They began a tiny little petty fight. Then, without thinking Yuki shoved Kyo over the bushes.
Tohru heard commotion by some bushes and screamed when she saw the two Sohma's.
"Kyo! Yuki! Have you two been there the whole time!" Exclaimed Tohru who hugged herself to hide her private parts, blushing a violent shade of red.
Both boys quickly stood up and looked at the ground and quietly shook their heads in shame.
Tohru felt a sudden burst of humiliation and anger. "I suppose the pervert gene runs in the family. You guys have been hanging around Shigure to much. Now go away, I don't think I'll be able to cook dinner tonight or even lay eyes upon you two. I'm retiring to my room for the rest of the day!" She quickly grabbed the towel, wrapped herself up and rushed to her room.
Yuki looked at Kyo and growled at him. He gave a very powerful thrust of his fist into Kyo's shoulder.
"Ai! What the hell was that for you Baka?" Kyo grabbed his shoulder in pain.
"If you hadn't insisted we stayed, Miss Honda wouldn't be mad at us right now. Looks like both of us have some apologizing tonight. Also, you're making dinner, unless you want burnt anything," Yuki walked away pissed off at allowing himself to be overcome by lustful desires.
Kyo walked off in the opposite direction. He was pissed off at Kyo was blaming him for everything. Yuki's his own person, he could have left anytime. So why blame everything on the cat when it's the rat himself who couldn't control himself.
Kyo smirked pushing the image of Tohru's pleasant vision.
