Chapter 2 - Cat Nap

"Who's excited?!" Shigure cheered, flying through the air as Kyo angrily shoved his suitcase into the trunk of the car they were taking to the airport.

"Not me." Kyo grumbled, sadly sliding into the back eat, his arms firmly planted across his chest in disapproval.

Yuki gave a tired sigh as he placed his suitcase into the back as well, Tohru coming up behind him. "I'd perfer not to answer that question." He stated simply. With a small sincere smile, he gently took Tohru's bag from her hands and placed it in the trunk along with the others. Tohru gave him a thankful nod before climbing in the back as well, sitting happily in-between Yuki and Kyo. Shigure practically jumped into the front seat, tossing a small suitcase in the passenger chair beside him and starting the engine of the car.

Kyo jolted in shock in his seat, leering forwards with a glare. "Hold on! The front seat is being used for all your garbage?! Why can't one of us sit up there and make this space less crowded! We're packed like sardines back here!"

Shigure made two 'tsk' noises with his mouth, wagging his finger slightly as he made eye contact with the orange-head through the rear-view mirror. "You see Kyo, I have too much stuff! It all wouldn't fit in the trunk! And I need to make sure I can see it at all times. I wouldn't want anyone stealing anything you know!"

"Do you really think someone is going to steal your work?" Yuki asked, slightly agitated and trying to not let it seep through his voice. Shigure scoffed and waved his arm, as if he was offended but didn't have time to deal with it at the moment. He shifted his car into drive and began towards the airport.

The car would occasionally bump and rattle, causing Tohru to jolt around in her center seat. Noticing this, Yuki decided to voice, "Shigure, you do have a license to drive, right?" As if to answer his question, Tohru gave a tiny gasp as she was jolted upwards again.

Shigure laughed as he continued to jerk the wheel around. "Why of course Yuki! I'm sure I have it somewhere in my files over here..." He mumbled, his right hand hovering over all the briefcases and bags he had in the front seat.

The three's eyes widened at the sudden statement, causing Tohru to lose her guard. At another jolt, Tohru sprung forwards as her head collided with Kyo's arm. "Ah!" She cried out at the sudden contact. Squirming slightly she jumped back to her sitting position. "Oh my gosh I'm so sorry Kyo! You're not hurt or anything right?!" Her voice wavering as she rapidly spoke her questions.

Kyo watched her out of the corner of his eye and slowly planted his hand on her shoulder, firmly and steadily. "This should keep you balanced." He grumbled, Yuki doing the same to her other side with a kind smile opposed to Kyo's bored stare.

"Hold on tight!" Shigure yelled, cranking the wheel as he zipped around the final corner to the airport. With a few shrieks, the three teens all became squished on the left side of the car. Shigure yelled in happiness and excitement while the others shrieked in fear and pain, yelling over each other in attempts to get comfortable again.

"Next time we're getting Hitori to drive!" Yuki yelled over all the chaos.

An exasperated sigh left Tohru's lips as she took a seat next to the window on their plane. It had taken a while to get through security with Shigure yelling at any officers who touched his things. Tohru, Yuki and Kyo had all been done their pat-downs and scan in around 5 minutes, but Shigure alone took around 15. Afterwards, he complained the whole way to their gate about how rude the staff had been to him, and he insisted on everyone carrying at least one of his bags onto the plane.

"I want to sit next to Tohru!" He proclaimed loudly once he had worked his way to their seats. The seats were organized in sets of three, which meant one person in the group had to sit across the asile from the others.

In sync Kyo and Yuki held their hands out to his face. "No."

Kyo rushed in and took the middle seat beside Tohru, while Yuki quickly sat down in the aisle seat. They both rushed to buckle up, despite the annoy feuds between them like to "stop poking each other with their elbows." Shigure solemnly took a seat beside an old lady and a man who looked to be going on a business trip. Before long, they were airborne and everything was peaceful.

Tohru's eyes shifted around the plane, scanning over everything. A small book sat in her lap, however she was much more content with watching the commotion on the aircraft currently. Tohru was a strong believer in the fact that "everyone has their own story", so it sometimes brought her enjoyment to watch others and guess what their story was. She laid eyes on a woman, looked to be in her mid-twenties. She was haggard looking with dark circles under her eyes, kicked back in her chair and sleeping soundly. Clearly, leaving to go on a much deserved vacation. The old woman beside Shigure held a rolled up blanket in her lap, and at random moments would stroke it with her hand; maybe like petting a cat? And who could forget the skinny man in the front row, wearing a baseball cap, some sunglasses and a Hawaiian like shirt; the classic tourist stereotype.

Before she knew it, Tohru's eyes were started to sag shut, much to her displeasure. She would much rather stay awake and enjoy the scenery and read her book, yet that's not what her body would allow. Her body losing the battle to stay awake, her body gently fell to the right, and landed against Kyo's shoulder. Just like that, she was out like a light, gentle quiet snores leaving her mouth occasionally.

With a small confused grunt, the orange-head turned his gaze upon the girl leaned against him. Without another sound, his eyes shifted away and he relaxed in his seat, not moving a muscle as not to disturb the brunette. Maybe he was going crazy, but when Tohru resting her head on his shoulder it was way less irksome then when Yuki did it in his half-asleep state in the mornings at home. With Tohru it was almost calming. The gently rise and fall of her chest, the slow and steady breathing, her hands gently clutching onto her book; she looked so innocent and sweet, that same Tohru that made him smile everyday. It was only in a moment like this that he noticed how sweet and pretty she really was. Her head gently resting against his somewhat-muscular arm made him crack a small smile.

"Maybe this trip won't be too bad after all."
