What now?
Kisa1317: I forgot that I was even writing on this story. I will try to make this chapter longer. There will be a lot of dialog and thoughts in this chapter.

Tohru's thoughts
Normal
Kyo's thoughts
'I can't believe I didn't tell Kyo that I loved him.'
"Hey Tohru don't space out on me. You're the one who got me into this mess," Kyo said irritated.
"Kyo you're awake!" Tohru yelled happily and went to hug him. Kyo held her back.
"Tohru have you forgotten so quickly about my injuries, not to mention the curse," Kyo said quickly and quietly. Tohru sighed and sat back down in the chair she had been sitting in.
'I have to tell her how I feel. The question is how.'
"Kyo is something wrong? Did I say or do something to make you angry?" Tohru said almost in hysterics.
"You've hardly said anything. Why would I be mad at you?" Kyo said a little harsher than he meant to.
'Crap! Now she definitely thinks I'm mad at her."
'Oh my God! He's mad at me! What did I do?'
"Kyo I'm so sorry for whatever I did to make you mad," Tohru said on the verge of tears. Kyo, however, didn't reply because he was too caught up in his own musings.
'There's no way she can like me like I like her. She probably likes the rat. I mean who could ever love the cat. She probably thinks I'm dumb for getting run over. Oh wait she's talking to me.'
"Kyo are you alright?" Tohru asked worriedly.
"Huh? Oh, yeah I'm fine," Kyo replied still half in his own mind. Tohru was about to argue, but decided against it.
"Do you think we should Shigure or Hatori?" Tohru asked. Kyo looked at the ceiling while contemplating this.
"I don't think we should just yet. Let's wait and see if we can get ourselves out of this," Kyo said seemingly still in his daze. Tohru just nodded.
'I still want to know what was bothering him earlier. It had to bother him a lot for him not to hear that car coming. I mean I could see me doing something like that but never Kyo. I hope Shigure and Hatori aren't going to be mad at me for bringing Kyo to the hospital. What are we going to do about the doctor? I still have to tell Kyo I love him, but now I'm too nervous to. I'm scared I'll make him mad again.'
'I wish I knew why she's being so quiet. She can be quiet sometimes, but never for this long. What are we going to do about the doctor? How am I going to explain this to Akito? Oh God, Akito is going to kill me for sure. Why am I getting so sleepy all of a sudden?'
"Kyo, are you alright? You're being awfully quiet. You're quiet a lot, but you seem to be troubled," Tohru asked timidly then blurted out, "Why were you so distracted and troubled this afternoon?"
"I already told you nothing is wrong. I'm always quiet and I'm only thinking of what we are going to tell that doctor. Why am I so sleepy now!?" Kyo said voice rising toward the end.
"Why don't you go to sleep and if the doctor comes in I'll tell him I don't want to make any decisions without your say in the matter," Tohru offered kindly. Kyo only nodded before drifting into sleep. Moments later the doctor walked in.
"How's he doing?" the doctor asked Tohru quietly so as not to wake Kyo.
"He's doing great although he did get really tired all of a sudden," Tohru said looking at Kyo thoughtfully.
"It's probably fine, but I'll check the i.v. lines anyway just to make sure," the doctor said and went on to check the lines. Five minutes later, "Oh my god, we've drugged this poor boy."
"What does that mean for Kyo?" Tohru asked quickly.
"He should be fine. Although, I am a little worried about the medicines he was overdosed with," the doctor replied calmly.
"Those medicines would be?" Tohru asked getting more worried by the second.
"Well one was the pain killer. That it itself could cause his lungs to collapse. The other was a drug which we use to slow down internal bleeding. That one could cause his heart to fail," the doctor said. The doctor left the room after taking Kyo off the two medications.
'That explains why he got so sleepy. I wonder when he will wake up again. I still have to tell him I love him and I need to do it soon just in case⦠No, Tohru don't think like that. He will be fine! He has to be!' Tohru soon fell asleep herself. She woke up when Kyo stirred.
"Kyo are you okay?" Tohru asked.
"Yes, I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?" Kyo asked catching the sigh of relief Tohru let out after he said he was fine.
"Well, you see the doctor overdosed you on two medications," Tohru said softly.
"Figures something like that would happen," Kyo said then added, "No telling how long I'll have to stay here now." Tohru just smiled until Kyo started coughing up blood. Tohru screamed and the doctor ran in.
"Crap! Miss I'm going to have to ask you to wait in the waiting room," the doctor said and a few nurses ran into the room.
"Why?" Tohru asked tears starting to run down her face.
"His lungs just collapsed."
Kisa1317: I'm going to end it right there for right now until I can come up with a good continuation of this. R&R. I may redo this chapter. I don't know. I can't keep doing this to Kyo. Anyway criticism is welcome. It will be used to write better stories. Sorry if the characters seem out of character. Which I'm sure they do.
