What If? Chapter 9- Yuki and Tohru
Tohru's face lit up like a light. Her joy poured over in bucks and Kyo could see in her eyes how happy and relieve she was. He wanted with everything in his heart to hold on to her at that moment. He stiffly moved a little backwards, embarrassed with himself. Tohru noticed but didn't say anything.
"So what does this mean?" Kyo asked feeling his face heat up.
"I'm not sure, but I'm so happy that your beginning to remember!"
Kyo rubbed his head, "Sorry that's all that came to me. Sure this was a memory?" He asked. She nodded franticly. "Yes it is! I remember it very well….I wonder if any of the others remember anything?"
Kyo shrugged, "Who knows?"
They continued onto Shigure's house and found him in his usual spot t the dinning table reading the days paper.
"Kyo welcome home, oh hello again Tohru." Shigure said and set his paper aside.
"Hello! How are you?" She asked.
"Oh fine just taking a break from a long days work."
Kyo stepped a little in front of Tohru, "What work? You never work!"
"Oh Kyo, of course I work, how else to do you think I have a house?"
"Akito pays for it! You just loaf around all day and tease your editor!"
Shigure smiled in response and Kyo rubbed his head feeling a headache coming.
Yuki walked in and placed his backpack near the door, "Oh hello Miss Honda." Yuki said as he came into the room where everyone was at.
He could tell she was happy about something and decided to ask what. "Did something good happen?" He asked. She gave him a big smile, "Yes! Kyo remembered something!"
"He did?"
"Yes! He remembered the time when you and him saved me from my grandpas!"
Yuki looked a little surprised but he changed the expression on his face quickly, he didn't want anyone to guess what he was thinking.
"Do you remember anything Yuki?" Tohru asked hopefully. He gave a small smile and shook his head, "Not yet Miss Honda but I'll try to."
Shigure looked to a clock near by, "Not that we wouldn't love you to stay Tohru but your mother might get worried, you should be getting home."
She looked to the clock to, "Your right! I better go before mom and dad become worried! Good bye!" she said happily to them.
Yuki went outside with her, "I'll walk you home." He said. She smiled, she was glad that they were going to have a chance to talk like they used to. She always treasured the times she spent with her friends, she didn't know where she would be without the friends she did. They always helped her in her though times and they always knew exact ally how to cheer her up.
She and Yuki walked side by side. "Oh!" She said. She pointed down to the secret base. "How is the secret base?" She asked as they passed it by. He looked confused for a moment, "Oh, its doing fine thanks. I'm going to be planting more strawberries and raspberries soon."
He had forgotten that they had, at one point, known a lot a out each other. He envied Kyo for even remembering something even so small. He wished with everything he had to know more about this mysterious girl who knew so much about him and his life. Who seemed to be genially interested in his well being. He gave a smile to himself, something he didn't usually do. There was something about her that made him want to tell her everything, anything, he knew she would always listen to him. He felt drawn to her as he knew the others found themselves doing the same.
"That's wonderful! I cant wait!" She said happily.
"If you'd like, would you like to help me plant them?" He asked. Her whole face lit up and she stopped walking and came to his face, "I would love that!" She said and then they began walking again.
He was happy to see her so happy about something even so small. They arrived at her house with the sun going down, wishing the day a goodnight.
"Thank you for walking me home!" She said. He nodded and smiled, "Anytime." And he meant it. He wanted to be near her, he couldn't explain to himself why. He walked her to her door and said one final goodnight and he went back home.
He arrived back at Shigure's as the moon came out into the sky. Kyo sat on the roof and noticed Yuki enter the house. "She make it home ok?" He asked. Yuki felt it then. He could tell with the tone of Kyo's voice that he cared about her. Yuki understood. "Yes, I walked her to her door."
Kyo laid on the roof and wondered what the next day would bring them, the memory of her being with him played over in his mind. The memory of wanting her more than he could think possible.
Yuki to laid awake in his bed, wondering what lay in store for the future.
