Italics – Kyo's thoughts
Bold italics- Sora's thoughts
"I haven't been completely honest with you Kyo. I'm not who you think I am; I'm not normal…" her voice was quiet; dampened with a hint of regret. His eyes fell to her hand clutched around his as she trembled before him. Uncertain by the situation; he simply stood there, thinking over many ways to try help.
"What do you mean?" he tried for his voice to be gentle but like always it came out harsher than intended. She turned to face him and smiled ever so slightly.
"I know you are the cat from the Sohma family" he froze as the words slipped over her lips with ease. He turned away and spat with disgust.
"You know what I am? It doesn't bother you?" her hands held his face and she made his ruby eyes clash with her electric blue. He couldn't help but look away; he was ready for her to turn away in fear. Instead she simply stood and smiled at him.
"I'm like you" he shook his head in disagreement and gazed at her.
"There's no way you are like me! I'm the cat for craps sake!" her hand fell over his lips and he felt a sudden blush rise to his cheeks.
"Like I said; I'm like you" she grew closer to him; her lips hovered over his. "Would you accept me? Will you turn away or keep your eyes on me?" he felt confused but that was washed away with the sudden feel of lips caressing his. He stood completely frozen as she kissed him ever so gently; before he had the chance to react, she had pulled away and a familiar smoke cloud appeared before him.
He looked over where she once stood and felt his jaw drop. Before him stood Sora, but in her true form. Her sleek silver body, those stunning blue eyes, she stretched her wings out far and he could not respond. The dragon! He smirked in his head as she let out a rather quiet roar and flexed her wings; closing them against her back. "Will you keep your eyes on me; or gaze elsewhere?" her voice rumbled as she lowered her head. He looked deeply into her large blue eyes and panic washed over him. What do I do? He questioned himself over and over; trying to think of something to say. Sora sat patiently, not wanting to rush him. She knew he was debating what to say; his eyes looked distant and that was a sign of him being lost in thought. His hands appeared against her snout and Sora watched him with hopeful eyes, she nudged him slightly and he lost his balance. He held onto her snout and stood up shortly after; his eyes now focused and prepared. She smirked and revealed her large fangs; Kyo just continued to stare.
"What was that for?" he smiled and she let a small growl creep from her throat as he ran his hands down her snout to follow the scales.
"You have no idea what to say do you?" she sneered and he stood silent. "You know what, I shouldn't have done this; I'm sorry" she tried to pull away but his hands held her snout; she watched him and noticed his eyes gleam under the moonlight. It seemed a spark had gone off inside of Kyo and he was ready to talk.
He exhaled heavily and looked at her. "Sora; I'm glad you are comfortable around me, I'm happy you could tell me about yourself and reveal your true form" he stroked her snout and she sighed heavily. "When I first met you; I immediately knew you were different from the other girls. I had no interest in anything, my life was dull. When I looked out on that rainy day and saw you; I was intrigued, your eyes were filled with something odd and it drew me to you."
"I seriously doubt I had that much of an effect on you" she snorted and he pouted.
"Thing is, you really did; the months we've spent together have been more than interesting, we have a connection." he whispered and removed his hands from her snout. "I was alone; Tohru had accepted me but were just friends. You came along and filled that lonely feeling. Sora I know I'm not good with feelings and stuff but… I find myself wanting to accept you, you complete me" his face matched the colour of his eyes and she smiled a large smile. Feeling the darkness that hung over her soul pass over; she finally got to feel the warmth of the light hit the core of her being. It's warm, finally I feel warm she didn't notice the tears flowing from her large eyes and changed back to her normal self.
"Kyo…" she chuckled as he turned away; holding her clothes in her direction. Getting the idea; she dressed and immediately threw her arms around Kyo's waist. "Thank you Kyo" she whispered into his back and he sighed.
"Yeah yeah; I know" he acted cool; trying to seem normal but completely failed as she chuckled into his shirt. "You dressed yet?" She tugged on his shirt and he turned around to see her smile a perfect smile. Her smiles are like poison; she seems to affect every part of my being he thought as he watched her jump onto him. Feeling arms around his neck; he placed his hands around her waist and pulled her even closer, staying quiet the whole time. His face buried into her shoulder; he hid the blush taking over and hoped she wouldn't notice. They walked home in complete silence, both unsure what to say to the other. The lights were off and they snuck inside, heading to their rooms they looked at each other and said goodnight. Resting her head on her pillow, she thought over what just happened. Placing her hand on her lips she savoured the taste of him and rolled over, ready for sleep to take her.
