Chapter 10 - A perfect night?
"Remembering what?" Tohru asked.
Kyo grimaced as he turned around to face her. Yuki's smile faded off his face and the three of them stood there, in shock and silence.
"Nothing, Miss Honda" Yuki said gently. "It's nothing, I should…uh…go and talk to some of the council See how everything's going" Yuki said calmly as he began to walk away.
Kyo clenched his fists his blood boiling in anger, but also excitement. 'That damn rat, always running when things get tough. Why do I gotta explain to her! Or maybe I don't…maybe I could just…' Kyo shook his head forcefully.
"Are you ok?" Tohru asked as she stepped towards him, what she had previously heard filtering out of her mind as concern crept in. "About earlier, if I said something to upset you, then I apologize…I should really watch what I'm saying and…"
"No," Kyo said gently and ran a hand through his hair. "Its alright, I just don't like being around people is all…" he shrugged
"Oh" Tohru smiled and nodded "I see, maybe all you need to do is practice, it can always be a lot of fun to be with friends"
Kyo looked at her softly. She was still the same old Tohru. Always thinking of others before herself. And always telling him exactly what he needed to hear.
"Tohru" He said suddenly, cutting her off from her nervous muttering.
"Yeah?" she asked.
"Do you, do you want to…dance?" he asked between nervous gulps. Tohru smiled as a faint blush crept up his cheeks.
"I'd love to!" she smiled. Kyo nodded and took her hand before leading her onto the dance floor. His mind was spinning wildly, excitedly and nervously. He didn't know how to dance! What was he doing? The song abruptly changed from the fast tune that was sending the couples in a wild dance, to a soft melodious tune.
Kyo took a deep breath before he put one hand on Tohru's waist and linked his other hand with her's. Their fingers curled together and he looked at Tohru to see her blushing but otherwise looking beautiful. He pulled her closer to him and she smiled a little nervously.
"Is this ok?" he asked suddenly, he didn't want to offend her or anything. Tohru smiled and nodded not trusting herself to speak. Because at that moment, she felt…light and happy. Everything else seemed to dim around her and she sighed in contentment. Her head dropped forward onto Kyo's chest and a wave of a soft scent filled his sense. Kyo sighed and smiled.
Yuki stood leaning against a wall with his arms crossed and his eyes narrowed as he stared at the couple dancing. He had known, somewhere deep inside himself, that Tohru and Kyo liked each other. That stupid cat made it perfectly clear. But he had never really acknowledged that Tohru felt the same feeling, not until now. Dropping his arms, he stalked off outside.
"Tohru…" Kyo said. Tohru lifted her head up off his chest and looked at him innocently. Whatever he was going to say fled from his mind as she looked at him. His head dipped towards hers and everything seemed to go in slow motion. The world vanished around them as the continued to dance, swaying softly with the music. All that mattered now was that they were their together. A chance like this was rare and may not come again. Hesitating for only a second Kyo smiled at her and then kissed her.
Tohru blinked in shock as she felt his lips press against hers. Gentler than she would have ever thought possible for Kyo, Her eyes drifted shut lazily and she kissed him back.
Suddenly images flashed in front of her eyes and she let go off him instantly and staggered backwards. Yuki straightened instantly from his position beside the wall and Kyo grabbed a hold of Tohru's arm.
"What the hell wrong?" he asked. Tohru grasped her head and shook it. Images flying past her waking eyes, people she didn't know. Places she felt as though she been, and names she faintly recognized. Then a tall dark figure, with skin that looked sickly and pale, she shook her head again and turned. She turned and ran.
"Damn it!" Kyo yelled as he streaked after her. Yuki followed after with all speed he could manage. Something had gone wrong, horribly wrong. But somehow it felt right. The two boys raced after Tohru not noticing the way they were going. If they had stopped to look around for a just a second, they would have realized.
The school was soon left behind them as the ran down a woody path. A house came into view and Kyo swore loudly. Yuki ignored him and continued to run. Maybe, just maybe everything was going to be alright.
Tohru knocked on the door loudly, banging the fragile wood with her fist.
"Alright, I'm coming. Hold on please" a voice sounded from inside. Tohru recognized it, and knocked louder. The door slid open and she fell inside, caught by a pair of strong hands that she vaguely remembered. Tohru was lowered to the ground gently and she looked up into the face of whoever had caught her.
"Shigure?" she asked slightly confused, her memories were fuzzy and she wasn't sure of anything.
"Tohru!": he said surprised "What are you doing here? What's happened?" Shigure asked. Tohru shook her head and she heard footsteps approaching. Tohru looked past him to where a tall man was waiting, with is dark hair hanging over one-damaged eyes.
"Hatori," she said gently, weakly. "What happened?" she asked shaking her head "You…you…" she shook her head again and her eyes began to close. Yuki and Kyo appeared at the door a moment later panting and sweating from the run. They took one look at Tohru asleep in Shigure's arms and at the looks on the two older men's faces and they realized what had happened. Collapsing to the floor they smiled.
She was back, their Tohru.
