Kyo and Tohru were walking in the rain on a dark and dreary afternoon. The rain dripping in a rhythmic pattern of the steps they took. The sun was about to set, the color of the sky cotton candy. The silence between the two strong, each of them thinking of what to say, or why they were even here right now. Tohru opened her mouth, but nothing cam out. Kyo was staring in another direction, thinking of what to say to say to the girl.
"Uh...Tohru...there has been something I have been wanting to um...to tell you...but it's hard to explain." Kyo said in a confused tone.
"Yes...?"
But Kyo couldn't explain it with words...
"Uhhhh...Tohru...I..."
"Yes...?"
Damn, she is so patient, I can't just leave her there, Kyo thought. How beautiful she looked when the wind caressed her hair and her face glows in the faint night Kyo straightened himself up and at that moment, she was the one he wanted. He wanted to hold her in his arms everyday, to hold hands and share the rest of his life with her.
Tohru glanced at Kyo's expression on his face, it was a mix of confusion and anger. She silently so she wouldn't tick him off. In his eyes, they were so pure, what she could see was more then the friendship they have, she wanted more then that. Ever since she first met hi, she knew there was a real person inside there, inside the frailness and toughness on that outer shell. This was was the moment they realized they were both in love.
"Tohru, I...," Kyo trailed off
"Ye-"
He reached over with a swift action and kissed Tohru on the lips. They were there caressing each other in the glow of the moonlight. The love they held abruptly, for so long, was not a secrecy no more. Lips pressed against one another. The embrace in each others arms, this is what they have been waiting for. After a while, they both let go, both of them looked each other in the eyes and knew that this love was meant to be.
Kyo had tears streaming down his face, he never knew how much this ever meant to him.
"Tohru, I love you, I want to be with you forever."
"I love you too Kyo, I have been waiting for you to tell me that for a long time."
They gazed in each others eyes, both filled with the magic they had just experience. Kyo held out his hand, in place, Tohru placed her hand in his, as if to represent the empty part of their hearts whole again. Tohru and Kyo walked into the gleaming night, hand in hand, with a new happiness by their side and in their hearts.
