Chapter 10- Come Home
"Yuki?" Tohru asked sadly.
"What Miss-Honda?" Yuki asked in return.
"You think that maybe if we are not a couple that Kyo will come back?" She asked.
"Oh…Tohru," Yuki sighed things were going to go back to the way they were originally, her, Kyo and him all just friends. Yuki gave up, he would have to change back and let go of the moments the two shared already. "Miss-Honda, I can't lie to you…but Kyo might return if that is what we do."
"Then I think," Tohru choked out, "That we should just stay friends," she whispered, she wanted to hear Yuki protest and throw his arms around her, but she knew that Yuki was modest and would do whatever made her happy. Tears of pure sadness rolled down Torhu's pale cheeks, and gleamed in the light of the moon, and all Yuki could do was stare at her beauty.
Yuki felt the lump in his throat rise when he tried to speak, "Whatever you say Miss-Honda," Yuki whispered to her as his eyes watered. He buried his face into his hands and tried to regain his composer. He then left Tohru in his room and walked to hers.
He opened her door slowly and entered, this was the place he would stay tonight. He took in the sent of the room and closed his eyes at the memories it brought back. He felt his warm tears stream down his cold cheeks, and for the moment let them relax his body. He wanted to forget. He wanted to be with Tohru, but she did not want to be with him? He thought he recalled her saying she had waited for this moment all of her life.
Yuki did not know anymore, he walked over to the bed and laid his body across the tops of the covers and let his body sink into the cushioning, that for the moment was providing great comfort. He fell into a light slumber, as the thunder began to roar outside. He desperately wanted to have Tohru in his arms where he new she would be safe, he dreamt of her all night…
"Um…" Tohru forgot about the curse and hugged Yuki while yelling, "I love you Yuki!"
The first time she openly confessed her feelings for him, that day at their secret base…
"Don't be I enjoyed what we just did and want to do it a lot more…only if you want to." She added not to sound selfish.
"Hmm I'd like that a lot," he said and he kissed her cheek…Their first real kiss, where things heated up between them and they felt as one…
"Kyo what are you doing?" she screamed…
When Kyo snuck into Yuki's room not knowing that Tohru was there, when Kyo hurt her…
"You think that maybe if we are not a couple that Kyo will come back?"
Yuki's body began to shake, his dreams became nightmares…
"Then I think," Tohru choked out, "That we should just stay friends,"
Yuki's eyes snapped open, his eyes were wet from crying, and his shaking body was curled up into a ball, "Why?" Yuki whispered as more tears streamed down his face.
It was now that Yuki set aside his pride and all the hate he felt towards Kyo and did what he thought was best for Tohru…
He went out to find Kyo…
"Tohru please know that I am doing this for you…" Yuki pleaded as he slipped silently out of Tohru's window. He walked through the forest feeling the rain slide down his body as he searched. He came up to the lake that was not to far from Shigure's house, when he spotted him…
"Kyo," Yuki whispered lightly. He walked over to Kyo's body that had collapsed in the mud from pure exhaustion and shook him lightly.
Kyo moaned but other than that there was nothing.
"Kyo please, you must come back," Yuki said continuing to try to shake Kyo awake.
Kyo still only moaned…
"Please," Yuki started, he was trying to bite back his tears that were threatening to fall, "Come back for Tohru," Yuki let it all out in that last sentence, he broke down…
Kyo's body went stiff and he did not make a sound…
"Kyo…Tohru and I…are not…together…anymore, she gave me up so you would come…home Kyo…" Yuki said attempting to pull Kyo to his feet.
Kyo sat up, "She did?" he asked, "but she also sent you to do her work didn't she."
"Kyo I don't understand you sometimes, but if you must now I came here on my own. Tohru is running a terrible fever, and for a whole hour all she asked about was you and if you would come back." Yuki said hoping it would get Kyo to come home.
Much to Yuki's surprise Kyo walked…home, they were both quiet, but somehow they new that each other was glad for the other's company at that moment…
