Chapter two…

The bangs at the door were quiet, he looked up from his book and instant soba. 'who could be visiting at dinner time?' he thought as he opened the door.

"Shishou" Kyo spoke quietly. Shishou looked at Kyo surprised he then looked around astonishingly for Tohru.

"Kyo what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be having dinner with Tohru and the others?" Shishou worriedly asked as he was well aware of the rocky road Kyo and Tohru's relationship was on.

"Shishou can I stay here for a while?" Kyo asked hinting desperation. Shishou nodded and let Kyo enter, leaving the door open half expecting Tohru to come bouncing through apologising for falling behind and him having to wait for her arrival. Kyo removed his shoes and stared through the open doors.

"where's Tohru-san?" Shishou concernedly asked, Kyo didn't answer but closed the door. Shishou repeated himself loudly. "where is Tohru-san Kyo?" Shishou said as he wanted to hear for himself if the unthinkable had really happened.

"is every damn question you're gonna ask me gonna revolve around her?" Kyo snapped angrily through clenched teeth. Shishou didn't repeat himself, he didn't have to because of the next line he heard.

"can you please do me a favour, and gather my stuff from Shigure's?" Kyo asked calmly after deep breathes. Shishou nodded and prepared for the walk. He was in desperation to see Tohru, to see how she was pulling through…

Yuki awoke to gentle knocking at the door. He knew he looked a mess, he could feel it. His shirt was now most likely wrinkled and wet. His hair felt as though it covered his face more than the rest of his head. His mouth was dry from sleep. Tohru clung to him like super glue. Gently and swiftly, Yuki slipped Tohru onto his back, since she did not wake after the several attempts he made to wake her. She stirred but still clung tightly as before. He approached the door and opened it to find Shishou standing there looking pale, he glanced at Yuki and stared at Tohru. If he did not know better they could look like a happy couple, if Tohru's eyes weren't puffy from crying and her face wasn't stained with tears. She whimpered lightly in her sleep. Making Yuki quicken in questioning.

"did you come to gather his stuff?" Yuki inquired quickly.

"yes, if possible I can do it myself" Shishou nodded to Tohru, Yuki bowed his head in return.

"they stay in Kyo's room" Yuki quickly said before retreating to the couch. Shishou went to 'their room'.

In the room…

As Shishou entered there was a gust of wind, the window was open. He forwarded to the drawer in which Kyo's sock was hanging out. He opened the drawer, it was Kyo's underwear drawer. Shishou moved over to the closet in search of suitcases. He found some with Kyo's name inside, they looked un-used. 'how long ago did Kyo plan on leaving? Was it when they came back?' Shishou thought, he never really knew why they retreated here from the far away dojo. Shishou stuffed the suitcases full of Kyo's belongings. Shishou reached the bottom drawer, it was filled with supposedly Tohru's belongings, things that were given to her. Shishou picked a small album up…

"Tohru?" Yuki tried to wake her again. He gently shook her shoulder. He really needed the washroom but she grasped his hand like she was holding on for dear life, he didn't mind though. Yuki bent down right next to her ear.

"is that the stove smoking?" Yuki gently whispered, Tohru bolt straight up and nearly hitting Yuki in the head. She rushed and threw open the kitchen door.

"I was kidding but I will be right back Tohru-chan" Yuki said from behind her, he bolted out of the living room quickly into the hall and disappeared from Tohru's sight. She felt a great surge of pain as she remembered Kyo had left, and that was practically how he left, but slower than Yuki. First he gets her to move away from her friends then he gets them to move back, then he leaves her. Was that the plan when they moved back? To leave her as soon as possible? Tohru shook her head fiercely before moving to the counter and continuing her cleaning. As she wiped the counters the rag fell open revealing an orange cat. Tohru cried once more as she remembered how that cloth came to be here, and then she remembered what she was dreaming of minutes before.

Flashback…(no POV)

"Tohru! Where are you?" Kyo called out in the shop in which he lost Tohru. He turned down an aisle and bumped into Momiji.

"Kyo-kun!? Where's Tohru?" Momiji exclaimed happily looking behind, beside, and around Kyo, he then frowned.

"where's Tohru?" Momiji asked still frowning, Kyo shrugged and continued briefly saying 'looking' to Momiji who jogged behind Kyo who continued to call the rice ball. They suddenly stopped in the household items aisle, Momiji had suddenly tugged at Kyo's arm making the former-cat halt.

"look, Kyo-kun we can get Tohru one of these while were looking for her" Momiji gleefully suggested, Kyo picked up a cloth with a peculiar orange cat on it both sides. Momiji held up an animated bunny cloth with bunnies patterned on every inch, multicoloured. The moved to the hardware clerk and paid for it separately, moments later they had found Tohru in a pet aisle looking at Siamese fighting fish. Kyo flung his arms around her and hugged her.

"Kyo! I missed you!" Tohru laughed as she hugged Kyo's arms, he had hugged her from behind. She was looking into his crimson eyes, his gazing down into hers, creating a purple immersion in both. Momiji watched smiling happily.

"we got you something Tohru!" Momiji beamed after they had moved to holding hands.

"you shouldn't have!" Tohru cried happily as she looked at the new clothes. She hugged Momiji and Kyo.

"thank you so much!" she beamed while bowing.

"sorry we didn't wrap it though, Kyo was in a frenzy! He was like a mad man panicking through all the aisles. I met up with him when I was looking for light bulbs! I didn't know you guys live near here" Momiji spoke happily and quickly.

"I was not in a frenzy! I just got worried!" Kyo defended, Tohru smiled brightly as she stood between the two.

"we live a ways away, but we came here to shop a bit, but why did you choose to buy light bulbs here?" Tohru said inquiring her question curiously, tilting her headed to the side.

"it's the only place I knew could fix a glowing sign. It was for Momo's birthday present, it said her name. Its supposed to hang on her wall." Momiji explained brightly. Momiji did not live with his family but has gotten very close to Momo, and has gotten to know his mother. Someone on the loudspeaker had just called Momiji's name, he said his goodbye's to the couple.

"shall we head home now?" Kyo asked as he rubbed Tohru's hand. Tohru nodded looking at her stomach, there occurring was a small bump at the bottom of her stomach…

Tohru bit hard back on the tears leaking into her already stinging eyes, she found herself kneeling on the floor, but the vision of her dream flashed though her eyes as she remembered the dream she had just dreamt.

Tohru's dream…

Tohru imagined her imaginary daughter into the dream again. She was handing her a small orange kitten, Kyoko's face shone like a spotlight immediately. Kyo stood next to Tohru, his hand placed firmly on her waist. Kyo knelt down to eye level with the now five year old girl, her age was determined by the cards hanging on the fridge. It went from, 'IT'S A GIRL!' cards, 'happy first birthday!'cards, 'welcome to the tough two's!' said another card, it went from so on, ending at five. All the cards were sent from various people, all saying something different. Tohru turned her attention back to Kyo and their daughter.

"daddy used to turn into one just like this, but he was bigger than this one" Kyo told his daughter, she looked at her father curiously. She gazed at her mum, who smiled and nodded.

"but daddy was cute and cuddly as that one" Tohru said, Kyo laughed. Kyo tickled Kyoko making her laugh and fall into his arms giggling, Tohru watched happily at his fatherly ability. He summoned her to come closer, she tried but every step she now took made them move at least fifty feet away from her. Soon everything but them was turning black, Tohru whimpered as everything turned black and she started falling, watching her daughter and Kyo disappear from sight. She then slept on dreamless…

Tohru sobbed quietly on the kitchen floor, Yuki came running in, she was still kneeling down. Tohru was hidden behind the counter so that Yuki hadn't seen her the first time he looked around.

"Tohru-chan! I couldn't find you for a while! You scared me, didn't you hear me calling you?" Yuki said worriedly before noticing her sobs, the tears. All this pierced his heart like a knife. She looked up at him, he knelt down and wrapped his arms around her, letting her cry freely on his shoulder.

'Kyo had once been like this. Worrisome, caring, gentle, warm.' Tohru thought as she hugged slightly back. Soon Tohru calmed down.

"thank you Yuki-kun, but I have been thinking, since Kyo left I guess I will leave too." Tohru stuttered sadly, but she tried to sound determined.

"Tohru-chan, if you're thinking the only reason you stayed here was because Kyo was here you're wrong" Yuki paused thinking his next words out carefully. "you're here because we love you, all of us. We care for you. And what would I- we do without you?" Yuki spoke softly to her, inches from her face. If he was not so close she would not be able to hear him. Tohru was about to open her mouth and protest but Yuki spoke first.

"Tohru-chan, if you were a burden would we care so much for you?" Yuki asked her seriously, Tohru shook her head. Tohru was still on the floor before he stood up to help her up.

"Yuki-kun, why do you say my name so formally?" Tohru curiously asked tilting her head to the side.

"because your precious" Yuki whispered as he made his way up the stairs, Tohru followed because he had a hold on her hand. Yuki took her to the entrance of hers and Kyo's room. They both halted, neither making a move to enter.

"well should we go in, you should get some sleep anyway" Yuki said as he started for the door, it slid open revealing Shishou.

"oh, Tohru-san!" Shishou exclaimed. "how are you?" Shishou asked concernedly.

"im fine thank you. Um, how's Kyo?" Tohru asked with a blank smile, sad eyes.

"no matter, it's you I am worried about" Shishou said worriedly.

"don't worry about me, please. But would you please, for me take care of Kyo" Tohru hinted plead in her quivering nervous voice. She sounded as though on verge of tears. Shishou nodded.

"I must be off though, Take care of yourself Tohru-san. Try not to change yourself" Shishou said ruffling her bangs slightly, as he walked past Yuki he whispered.

"take care of her" Yuki nodded determined. Tohru still stood at the doorway, Yuki entered first, putting his hand out to her while he stood in middle of the room. She grabbed it, he held it reassuringly.

"this room's not fit for a princess" Yuki murmured as he looked around, it was Kyo's old room. "how about we fix your old room up tomorrow?" Yuki asked as he smiled down at the onigiri. She smiled sadly back.

"Tohru-chan, if you don't want to smile, you know you don't always have to" Yuki told her soothingly.

"I know, I just want to make Yuki-kun happy" Tohru said, Yuki couldn't tell but he thought he heard some happiness coming from the sad girl. Yuki smiled again.

"you should get to bed, if you need anything call or come and find me" Yuki said as he started to exit the room.

"you make me happier than you think" Yuki whispered before closing the door behind him…

Tohru stirred in bed, she had just fallen to sleep hours before and it was now three in the morning. She couldn't get herself back to sleep this time. It felt as though she had her fantasy dreams turn to nightmares a million times that night. She didn't know how many times she had woken up and fallen back to sleep. But this time she couldn't, she didn't want those dreams to start up again. She also felt, cold, lonely. Like that one time. She got up out of bed and headed for the bathroom. When she had finished up she stood in the bathroom entrance, unmoving. Sooner than she knew her instincts crept up to Yuki's door. She didn't even stop or knock before entering. When she got to the side of his bed she was trembling, it was fear of rejection. She was already been rejected by Kyo, she didn't want the same with Yuki. She lightly tapped his shoulder, the blankets were thrown off himself, he was topless, in checker blue pyjama bottoms. She tapped again, this time she ran a finger lightly over the skin of his neck, checking for a pulse. His eyes quivered open.

"Tohru-chan" he spoke clearly as if he had practiced saying it for hours. He had been saying it a lot all day though. "what's the matter?" he slurred. Tohru thought quick, her window was open.

"Yuki-kun I am sorry to disturb you but it's too cold in my room and-" Tohru was stopped her frantic whispers by a blanket being thrown over her as she was lightly pushed down by an arm. But when she was laying down, covered in a blanket, the arm did not remove itself. She craned her neck to see Yuki sleeping, his arm rested over her, she was about six inches from his forehead. Tohru was contemplating on whether to get up and leave, or to kindly move Yuki's arm and stay with the warmth of his body. Tohru repeatedly thought out her options, soon her body gave in tiredly to Yuki's warmth. Her eyes fluttered to stay open, soon they drifted shut. Leaving the two in a deep slumber. Neither moved or stirred against their positions. Morning started to flutter around the corner soon after the two fell back asleep.
