Okay time to start the story!

Hold on tight! It's gonna be a bumpy ride!

It was a day after the gang's graduation and the cellebration was less than joyous. Tohru stared into the mirror at her solemn reflection. Her and Kyo's relationship was on borrowed time. Their was no telling when a black car would pull up in front of the house and take her love away. Leaving the bathroom and entering her room she sat down on her bed. She ran a hand across the soft pink fabric and memories flashed through her mind of the three years she'd lived in this house.

To her it was not just a house it was her home and the residents, her family. Over the years with the help of Rin she had tried desperately to break the curse, but had failed thus far. Tough it's ahrd to believe her hope was starting to fade fast. She heard a knock on her door and she hurried to answer it. Sliding the door open she saw that it was Kyo who stood before her.

"Oh, Hi Kyo-kun!" She tried her best to put on her everyday cheergul face, but she wasn't doing that great a job.

"Hey..." Kyo examined her face and he could tell she was puting on a front. He didn't like it; he wanted to see the what she really felt and he wanted to know what was bothering her even though he knew all too well. He put his hand to her cheek and she held his large hand to her face. Tears started to well up in Tohru's eyes and her front was started to fall apart. She knew it was no use because Kyo could see right through her facade because he loved her dearly and he cared to much to see her fake happiness.

Kyo slid the door shut behind him and moved closer to Tohru, but not close enough to transform.

"I'm sorry...I'm sorry, Kyo-kun. I...I couldn't do it." She was now sobbing. "I couldn't free you and the others! I failed!"

"Shh...It's okay...It was inevitable. I knew this would happen. That's why I wanted to spend as much time as possible with you." This only made her cry more because she felt the end coming. She felt as if her world was coming to an end; the world she had known for three years and the happiness she had felt. She put her head to his chest making sure that their chests didn't touch. By the time she was done his shirt was soaked, she felt somewhat better and comforted.

She looked back up at him with her face still wet and he bent down to kiss her. She gratefully accepted his kiss and she returned it eagarly. Breaking the kiss they made eye contact and she couldn't help but kissing him again this time more passinately. Kyo broke the kiss and trailed kisses down her cheek, kissing away her tears. She wrapped her arms around his neck and let her fingers grace his orange locks. He returned his lips to hers and she accepted them. Kyo made sure to lock the door before he moved her futher into the room. He put his hands on her hips to keep her enough distance away so her chest wouldn't touch his and ruin the moment.

She moved her hands to his chest and felt the lean muscles beneath the soft fabric of his shirt. For now she decided to put her sadness in the back of her mind so she could focus on the here and now. Kyo moved his hands under her shirt and caressed her flat stomach. He moved one hand up her back to play with the clip of her bra. Tohru heard the snap of her bra and she gasped. Kyo stopped and looke into her eyes.

"Hey. I'll stop if you want me too."

"No. I'm just a little nervous that's all. I want to make you happy, Kyo-kun. That's the least I can do for you know." She looked down sadly and Kyo lifted her face back up to look at him.

"You should worry about yourself more, moron. I care more about you than I do myself, so don't you go thinking you have to do anything for me you don't want to. Got me?" Tohru smiled and giggled lightly.

"Got you." She kissed him lightly before speaking again. "I love you Kyo-kun and I'm doing this because I want to and for you too." She blushed bright red and moved away from him to lay on the bed. Kyo looked at her and smiled

"Okay." He moved over to the bed and moved over top of her careful not transform. He kissed her lips, then moved down her neck and continued on listening to her moans and gasps. Tohru closed her eyes and tried to memorize everything he did and every move he made. A tear fell down down her cheek as she felt the pain associated with sex, but even so she wanted to remember it and how it felt. The pain was quickly replaced by pleasure and memorized that too.

"I love you..."

"I love you too..."

Later That Night

Kyo opened his eyes and looked down at the brown haired girl he'd fallen in love with. She layed beside him with an arm over his chest and a pillow in between tham to keep him from transfroming. He moved slowly as he moved from next to her and out of the bed. Finding his clothes on the floor he dressed silently straightened himself up a bit.

"Humph...as if it even matters anymore." He thought to himself. He stared at Tohru's sleeping form. He ran a hand through his hair and approached the bed again. He bent down and ran the tips of his fingers across her cheek. He slowly bent down and softly brused his lips against hers. He knew this was probably the last time he would do this, so he made the most of it. Tohru stirred a bit, but then settled back down into a deep slumber. Kuo was glad of this because he didn't want to see her cry anymore over him, even though he knew that when she found out he was gone she would cry anyway, but at least this way he wouldn't have to see it.

He stared at her long and hard, etching her features into his memory forever. He looked at her one last time before, leaving the room and heading downstairs. He didn't take anything and he didn't care about anything else. It was as if he was on auto-pilot and everything else didn't matter becuase this was the end of his already limited freedom. When he walked out the door a solemn looking black car awaited him outside. Beside the car stood Hatori, smoking a long ciagrette. He heard the door open and looked toward the house seeing Kyo coming toward him, looking as if he was a zombie.

Hatori examined him for a minute.

"You're not taking anything?"

"No." Kyo answered monotonusly.

"Well then, let's get going." Kyo got into the car and dropped his head down, looking at the car floor. Hatori only glanced at him occasinally, seeingthat Kyo did not want to be bothered. He honestly felt sorry Kyo, but most of all for Tohru. He was sure since he didn't see her send Kyo off that the poor girl didn't even know Kyo was gone. He was sure see was asleep thinking to herself that she'd see him in the morning. Just thinking about it made him a little sad though his expression never showed it. He looked over at Kyo who had his head down and arms limp by his side.

Hatori sighed to himself and put all the thoughts out of his head as he continued on to the main house. Kyo tried to put all thoughts of Tohru and his previous life out of his mind, but it was hard, thinking back on all the memories he made with her over the years. As he rode with Hatori to the main house he thought about how he knew that he would be locked up tonight. He'd known the whole time that it was going to be toinight, but he hadn't wanted to tell Tohru and make her cry. He hated to see her cry and he didn't want to be the one to make her cry.

They shortly arrived at the main house and Kyo got out of the car. As soon as he looked up the first thing he saw was Akito.

"Welcome home, my little monster."

The Next Morning

Tohru awoke to a bed that felt empty. She reached out for Kyo, but felt nothing. No soft orange hair, no lean chest and torso, and no crimson eyes that gazed back at her. Her eyes sprang open and she realized that this was no nightmare; this was real! Kyo was gone! Every other reason for him not being there ran through her head, except the one she less wanted to hear. She dressed quickly and searched the house frantically fearing her worst nighmare had come true. When she had exhausted herself and counldn't find any sign of him she fell to ground on her knees.

She panted hard and heart beat a mile a minute in her chest.

"Kyo...Kyo-kun...Kyo-kun!" She heard no answer to her cries. Tears randown her face and cried out loud, not caring who heard her. Her heart ached and she knew why. He was gone and she'd never see him again. SHe sobbed into her hands and cried out his name. She didn't know if her tears would ever stop falling and her body ached. She wrapped her hands around her body as she convulsed. It was over it was all over. What did she have left? There was nothing left of him? Her stomach ached and she threw up.

He didn't even say goodbye. Even though she knew this would happen it still hurt; and she still felt pain. Would this pain ever go away. She didn't know. All she knew was that her swollen eyes could not cry anymore, so she whispered into the morning.

"Kyo-kun...good...bye..."
