SORRY FOR THE FREAKISHLY LONG WAIT! This is probably going to be the worst chapter in my story, but, oh well...

At School

At School

"Don't do anything stupid at school, stupid cat." Yuki ordered.

Kyo didn't reply; he was still in shock because of Tohru's reaction. 'This wasn't supposed to happen….I never should've told her…How could I think that she would accept me? After all, I killed her mother…sort of…The most important person in her life... I'm so stupid….'

Kyo and Yuki separated to go to their lockers. Kyo's head constantly was looking down. While walking to his locker, he bumped into someone. It was just a shoulder-to-shoulder bump, so he didn't transform.

Kyo's head picked up to see who he bumped into.

Just his luck. He bumped into Tohru. Her eyes were wet from crying. "I-I'm sorry…"

Tohru stared at him for a second, then yelled, "NO!" and ran away crying.

Kyo's head fell again.

"What's wrong, Tohru?" the blond Yankee asked Tohru as she started running to her.

Tohru didn't say anything. She stopped running and stood there, sobbing.

"Tohru…" She put her arms on her and pulled her closer. "It's okay."

Tohru hid her face; all of her emotions were jumbled up inside her, causing her fear, and pain.

The warmth of the hug was comforting and soothing, she knew that there's somebody who's always there for you, who would never do anything to hurt her. A best friend.

Once Tohru couldn't cry anymore, she started calming herself down, Ou was helping a bit.

"Are you alright?" Ou asked.

"I-I don't kn-kn-know…" She was hyperventilating

"It's going to be okay…" Ou hugged her, and tears started rolling down her face as well. She didn't like seeing Tohru this way.

A second later, the warning bell rang. Tohru and Ou wiped the tears away from their faces, and it looked like they had never been crying (they had to dry off their shirts a bit too). There was only one thing that Tohru couldn't bring back to her face: her smile.

The two walked into their homeroom classroom. They sat down in their usual seats next to each other. Tohru's head slammed on the hard, cold desk. She managed to keep the tears away, but she still couldn't smile.

The room quickly filled with students, all of them took their assigned seats in the classroom, but none of them really noticed how different Tohru was today. Once Kyo walked in the room and took his seat—which was in front of Tohru's—he didn't talk to her, no, he didn't even look at her.

All through class, Tohru didn't try to talk to any of the Sohmas, and none of them tried to talk to her either.

The bell rang, everybody walked out of the classroom, but Tohru walked out especially fast today, she was the first one out of the classroom; Ou was right behind her.

Kyo stayed at his desk, and didn't move a muscle—except for he put his face, face down on his arms. What was the point of going back to the house now? There was no reason for him to go home, the only reason he ever did go home, was to see Tohru.

"Kyo, hurry up, let's go home. This is the ONE day I don't have a student council meeting, you better not keep me here late!" Yuki said quite angrily.

He turned his head toward the window. "What's the point…?"

"HURRY UP!" He smacked Kyo across the face and he flew across the room, hitting other desks and chairs.

No response from Kyo was heard.

"Ahh!" Yuki grabbed the collar of Kyo's shirt and dragged him out of the room, and out the door that lead outside.

He let go of the collar and Kyo fell on the ground. "I'm not carrying you home." Yuki said as he walked away.

"Owe…." was all he said, well, before he looked up. There was a shadow hovering over him. It was Tohru. Her long, beautiful, brown hair was sparkling in the sunlight, and she looked as beautiful as ever—even from behind.

"T-T-Tohru!" he said, standing up.

She didn't even turn around, she automatically ran away. He could've followed her, for she left a trail of tears behind her. He didn't.

"Crap…I really screwed up this time…." He stood there, looking down at his feet. Soon, there was a drop of water on the ground in front of him. Then another and many more to come.

Slowly, he started walking home, alone. This was the first time in a long time that he was alone coming home from school, he always had Tohru and/or Yuki with him, but not this time.
