Chapter 2: True Fears
Grrr. That damn rat got to her. How will I ever be able to get closer to her? I know how she feels about him, but I want her to feel that way about me. It's just not fair. Might as well go back to bed before anyone sees me here. Kyo thought. He was unaware of how Tohru thought about him. He really wanted to know. He hoped to hell and back she loved him. And if she didn't, he'd find a way to make her his. He'd do what ever it took. She was his heart's desire.
…
The next morning……
"Time to get up! Breakfast is ready!" a happy Tohru shouted. After her nightmare, she had a wonderful dream about Momiji and Kisa playing in a park while she and Arisa Uotani and Saki Hanajima watched them. It occurred to her when she woke up that Uo-chan and Hana-chan didn't know Kisa, but that really didn't bother her cheery mood. She had a feeling that something unexpected was going to happen when Yuki came down, since he was always the last one awake. She made extra pancakes, just incase.
"Good morning, Tohru-chan!" a tired-yet-unusually-energetic Shigure greeted her.
"Mornin'" was all Kyo could get out before Ayame came bursting in.
"Greetings, Tohru-chan!" the snake exclaimed. "And where is my little brother? Should I wake him? Or do you wish to grace him with your presence in the early morning, lovely Tohru-chan?"
"What the hell are you doing here?" Kyo shouted.
"Why, I've come to see Tohru-chan, Kyonkichi!" Ayame replied cheerfully.
"Uh…I'm flattered. You may wake up Yuki-kun if you wish, Ayame-san," Tohru said, blushing. The onigiri still hadn't gotten used to Shigure and Ayame's little nicknames for her.
"What's all the yelling about this early in the morning?" a tired Yuki entered the kitchen. "Oh, God help me! Ayame, what are you doing here?"
"Hello little brother! I came to grace Tohru with my presence! Aren't you filled to the brim with excitement?"
"Aaya! You're in a good mood!" Shigure said.
"But, of course, Gure-san!"
"That's it! I'm calling Hatori!" the cat and the rat shouted at the same time. Both of them ran to the phone. Yuki picked it up and Kyo rapidly punched in Hatori's number.
"Hello?" came the voice of the dragon through the receiver.
"Hatori! Get over here! Ayame just showed up!" Yuki and Kyo said in unison.
"Whoa! You two are getting along? Weird."
"Whatever! You have to help us! Please?" they shouted.
"Okay, okay. After I take care of Akito," he stated calmly.
"I don't know if Ayame will be alive that long!" they both shouted.
Hatori sighed. "Put Ayame on the phone."
"Okay. Ayame! Telephone!" Yuki shouted.
"Coming!" Ayame came in and took the phone from the two teenagers. "Hello?"
"Ayame, it's me. Its time to come home."
"But I just got here!"
"I don't care. I need some help with Akito."
"Okay! I'll be there in a few!" And Ayame hung up the phone. He ran back into the kitchen. "I'm so sorry, Tohru-chan! I have to go; Haa-kun needs me to help him!"
"Oh. Well take some pancakes for you, Hatori-san, and Akito-san! He gets sick so much that some decent food should help keep him better!" Tohru somehow knew he was going to help with Akito.
"Oh, thank you, Tohru-chan! I am absolutely positive that you are the best cook! Even Akito will be begging for more!" With that, Ayame said his goodbyes and left.
"I'm amazed that I made enough pancakes for exactly that happening." Tohru said when breakfast was over.
"You knew that was gonna happen?" Kyo said, looking amazed and angry at the same time.
"Well, no. Not exactly that, but I felt as though something was going to happen right when Yuki got up," she replied. "Just my intuition."
"He showed up right when I got up?" Yuki, who was helping with the dishes, unlike Kyo, asked quizzically.
"Yep. That's why I said Ayame-san could wake you up. I knew you were already awake!" she smiled.
The rest of the day went like a normal school day would. Classes, lunch, more classes, Tohru inviting over Haru and Momiji. Haru politely declining, Momiji begging Haru to let them go. Then going home, and having dinner. But this night, they all stayed up to watch TV. That's when everyone started thinking of their fears. Their worst fear. Kyo's was losing Tohru to Yuki. Yuki's was losing Tohru at all. Shigure's was not being able to be a pervert.
Tohru wasn't overly sure about what her worst fear was. Her old fear had already come true. She didn't have a worst fear. She just had a great many small fears. But then she figured it out. What kept popping up in her head was…
