A/N Sighs Hi… I don't own Fruits Basket or any of its characters, K…

Brotherly Love

It's interesting to see her small smile appear now. Especially after all of her troubles she's had. Sometimes I wonder why I never helped, why I never cared. Only now do I try to protect her from all the dangers life seems to fling toward our lives. It's hard because I know I can't be everywhere or do everything. Her being a girl there's only so much I can do being a teenage boy… I leave those things to Tohru. She used to be invisible in my eyes until the day she visited and I was the only on there. That's when I noticed for the first time.

She had come searching for Tohru, as usual. Only, Tohru wasn't here, I was. At first she was quite; not saying much. Only that she'd wait for her to get back. Of course I preferred it this way and turned to go to my room so I could finish a book I had received from Shigure. (It was surprisingly good too.) Much to my dismay, I heard a muffled cry befre i even reached the top stair. Turning I saw Kisa sitting at the table. Tears were flowing down her cheeks and she was trying desperately to stop them. Groaning I turned to her. "What's wrong!" Okay I admit this may not have been the best approach, but it was the only one I knew. Her cheeks turned red from embarrassment and she bowed her head low to hide it. "N-nothing…" I stomped down toward her and looked her in the eyes, a frown on my face. "Don't lie…" She seemed caught off guard by this statement. "Well, um, I, um,…" She stuttered out quietly. Then looking up she sniffled. " Um, well, the k-kids at school…" I sighed. She obviously had some kind of problem. I was thinking I should leave it to Tohru when I suddenly felt a warm small embrace. "Uh, Kisa?" She sniffled. "Kyo? W-will you listen? T-to my problem?"

That hug, it surprised me to no end and to this day I still wonder what possessed her to do such a thing. I mean, we were never close. She had spilled her guts to me, about her problem at school. I didn't know what to say, but somehow I helped her get through it and before I knew it we were talking all the time. She always asks for help now…she even calls me big brother.

A/N: I always thought that Kyo would be a good brother. A little over protective though… And Kisa, well she is the tiger. I mean tiger, cat, tiger, cat… sound similar? Plz review! I want all comments! Good or bad, they help! Bye
