A/N: I have the Furuba cast here with me this time. Where's Kyo? Oh, boy. Kyo's sulking on the roof again…Haru this is where you come in… Haru gets up and stomps up the ladder. A yelp issues from above. Haru returns, dragging Kyo by the ear.
Me- Haru, you didn't have to do that.
Haru- I know, it's just loads of fun torturing this little kitty.
Kyo- Who you calling little you direction-retarded brat?!
Haru- You…obviously.
Yuki- Stupid cat.
Kyo- YOU GUYS WANT TO TAKE THIS OUTSIDE!!!
Me- Yes, if you three are going to fight, do take it outside.
Kyo- Who asked you?
Me- No one. Come on, these people are getting bored listening to you bicker.
Yuki- :: Turns to Audience:: Please, carry on with the story, we will return as soon as I kill that stupid cat. Muffled sounds of punching and kicking are heard in backround.
Chapter 1- On the Roof
What is wrong with me? Kyo asked himself for the hundredth time. Why is it that I can never seem to say anything good to her when that damn rat is around? Kyo curled up, lost in thought. "Kyo?" Tohru's soft voice sounded from beside him. He lifted his head and looked at her. Her huge, blue eyes stared back at him; pain and confusion swirling in her gaze. She pulled herself onto the roof and flopped down next to him. "Tohru, I…" He began, but he stammered too badly and fell silent. She turned to him; her ocean-like orbs deep and warm. She smiled and blushed slightly. This gave him a small spark of hope. "Tohru… I know this may be kind of awkward…" His confidence trickled away from him. "But there's something I have been meaning to tell you…" She stared into his maroon eyes. "Yes?" She asked quietly. "Well, you see…" He struggled to keep from stuttering. "I- I…" He gulped. "I love you." He finished and sighed with relief. Without warning or thinking, she flung her arms around his neck. "I love you too, Kyo!"
A/N: I know, it's short, but sweet nonetheless. Promise the next chapter will be longer, 'K?
All for now,
Facing the Storm
