Tohru stood at the kitchen sink doing the morning dishes as she hummed to herself. She hummed along to her happy songs playing on her mp3 player.
Kyou came into the room as he sees her standing there. He was going to tell her how he felt about her. He had swallowed his pride and was about to do something that no man should ever do…talk about his feelings.
"Tohru." Kyou cleared his throat. As Tohru looked at him and gave a small wave before going back to doing the dishes. In a small shy voice Kyou began what he wanted to say.
"Don't laugh, but I've wanted to say this for a long time. I didn't dare before because I didn't want Akito finding out and hurting you. But I need to tell you. I'm in love with you."
Tohru turned around and looked at Kyou strangely. She pulled the ear bud that still gave off the sound of happy music.
"I'm sorry Kyou was there something you wanted to say, I wasn't paying attention."
Kyou's face dropped and he looked at his feet. He scuffed his toes on the floor and looked at her warm smile.
"It's nothing." Kyou turned around and cursed himself as Tohru returned to the dishes with her happy tune.
