"Tohru, who are these people?" Kyo asked, lowering himself so that he was at my level now. Before I could aswer Hatori stepped forward.
"We are Tohru's friends, we've come to pick her up. If that's alright with you I mean." He explained, Kyo raised a brow at this. After a moment of the awkward silence I decided I should step in.
"Um, give me a moment." I said quickly, and shut the door. I knew no matter what they would be able to hear what I told Kyo. But it didn't matter. Kyo looked at me, his crimson eyes on mine. So curious his eyes were. "Do any of them look familiar to you? Do you know them from anywhere?" I asked, my hand against the closed door. He thought about it for a moment, but then shook his head.
"Nope, why?" He said plainly, I let out a sigh and looked at him once more. "Well go on, we'll be fine." He assured with a charming smile. His eyes held this strange gleam. It was beautiful, I wish my eyes would look so alive.
"Okay, tell your mother I am very sorry." I said giving him a deep bow and heading out the door. Momiji, Hari, and Shigure were still standing on the front step. Their expressions changed from serious, to curious. Momiji had a warning look on his face, which was odd because he was always so cheerful.
"How do you know Kyo?" I asked, as we began walking back to the house. "And how did you know how to get here?" That question had been bugging me too. They all kept quiet, like it was something I shouldn't know. "Tell me!" I ordered.
"Kyo isn't human Tohru, stay away from him." Hari said turning to look at me, I stopped in mid step. But he looked so human! He had color, and his scent. . He smelled human as well. "It's best we leave it at that, come along Tohru." He said, I kept walking. I let the subject go for now, but when we got home I intended to have a little chat with Momiji.
--
After about an thirty minutes of walking we finally reached our home. The journey there was a long and quiet one, no one dared to breathe a word to me about the situation. Not with Hari standing there anyways. Everytime someone spoke up, Hari looked at them and they shut right up. As soon as Hari was out of sight I linked arms with Momiji. I need to talk to you. I know he was listening to my thoughts since I broke his promise. He nodded and we walked up the stairs to my room. Once inside my room I realeased his arm.
"What do you know about Kyo?" I asked urgently, he crossed his arms.
"I told you not to get involved with that one." He said, somewhat hurt that I didn't take his advice.
"Please Momiji." I pleaded, his eyes softened and he looked away from me.
"Kyo. . Kyo isn't what he seems, Tohru. He's a halfbreed. Part vampire part human. He looks like a human Hari set the vampire in him to sleep a long time ago. Kyo used to live with us, and for some reason. . When he turned eighteen he stopped aging altogether. Kyo began losing his mind, about forty years after this and he went on a rampage. But it wasn't him reaking havok, it was the vampire in him." He started, I was too lost in his words to ask questions I just listened. "We know this because when we finally stopped him, he was unconcious and when we woke him he had no idea what he had done. Did you ever wonder what Hari's special technique is?" He asked.
"Yes." Was all I could manage to say, all this was so shocking to me. My Kyo, part vampire. I had always treasured him because he was human, now how was I supposed to think of him?
"He erases people's memories." He said quietly. "So after Kyo came to, he begged Hari to erase his memories. To make him forget he ever was part vampire. And Hari did it, he walked Kyo to the edge of the forest and left him there until he regained conciousness. This is the very first time we have seen him since then." He said looking at me once more. "Stay away from him Tohru, he may seem like a harmless mortal. But he's more than that." And with that final statement, he was out the door.
Kyo. . My sweet Kyo. How could I have not forseen this? How were my visions so clouded? Oh Kyo. . How am I going to look at you now, knowing I know what you are and you haven't a clue.

After a while of thinking of Kyo I decided it was best if I just forgot about it for a while. What I needed to worry about. . Was Yuki. The only thing they had told me was that they were ambushed and no where to be found. For all I know, he could still be alive. Hiding somewhere, waiting to regain his strength. How I hope my vision will tell me soon.
I decided I should sleep tonight, since it was the best way my visions came to me. I lay on my plush bed, my thoughts on Yuki. Hopefully if he is my last thought going to sleep, then he'll be my vision. It took me a while to picture his perfect face, but once I got him in my mind I drifted off into a sleep that hopefully would lead me to answers.
I sat infront of Kyo, he was looking at me now. Such love in those crimson orbs, I smiled warmly at him. He smiled back with a long sigh, I looked at him curiously. It looked like he was on the verge of saying something, but he closed his mouth right away. He looked frustrated now, I giggled and shook my head.
"What's troubling you Kyo?" I asked meeting his gaze again. He rubbed the back of his head awkwardly and smiled that goofy smile.
"I want to tell you something, but promise you wont be freaked out or nothin. I've never done this before." He said bashfully, he looked so adorable. Like a small boy meeting his first love. His cheeks flushed as I nodded, incouraging him to proceed with what he wanted to say.
"Go on." I said, laughing a little. It was hard not to laugh when he looked so flustered.
"Tohru. . He said grabbing my hand it seem to shock him that I was freezing cold anymore. "Tohru, I want to be with you forever." He said, his voice was strong and it sounded like he meant every word. But my eyes turned sorrowful.
"And how long is forever in your eyes?" I asked him, I knew he must know something was different about him. The fact that he never aged, he had to know he wasn't like all the rest.
"A long time. ." He muttered, his eyes looked sad as well. I squeezed his hand and he looked at me, a smile on his face again. It made me so happy that I could change his mood so quickly. He was so beautiful when he was happy. That smile would have stopped my heart, if it were beating.
"I have eternity." I said quietly, he chuckled like he had doubts.
"And how long is eternity in the eyes of a teenager?" He asked, looking away now.
"I'm older than you think." I whispered, he looked at me mockingly.
"And how old are you miss? Enlighten me." He said, amused now.
"You wouldn't believe me, even if I told you." I said with a faint smile, he put his and under my chin making me look at him. That goofy smile that I adored was on his face again.
"Try me." He said, almost as if it was a challenge. I sighed and grabbed the hand he had placed under my chin. I placed it over my heart, he looked at me curiously as to what I was doing. Then froze, he felt no beat. He jerked his hand back and scurried back a few feet. "Wh-what are you?" He stuttered, his eyes wide with fear.
"I knew this would happen!" I shouted, my eyes filling up with tears. "I didn't want you to know the truth, your the only thing that keeps me from going completely insane. Do you want to know why I never accepted Yuki as my love?" I asked rising to my feet and walking over to him, he shuffled back on his hands and feet away from me. I sighed and stayed where I was as not to frighten him even more.
"Why?" He asked, his voice shakey. I kneeled down infront of him.
"Because I saw you, you were my first dream as a vampire." I said, confessing what I was to him in the process. If it was possible his eyes widened more.
"Vampire?" He breathed out, to stunned to even look at me now. He looked passed me.
My eyes opened and I sighed. That wasn't the vision I was aiming for, or wanted to see for that matter. So either way, Kyo will end up rejecting me? Is that how it will be? It's probably for the best anyways, as long as he's far away from me. He'll be able to go on living in peace. But is that what I really want? To give up on the one thing that gave me hope all these years?
It's for the best.
