A/N: OMG! It's been a year I know so I doubt anyone has been actively looking for me to update. I am so sorry everyone, huge case of writers block, I never thought I'd write again. But today I got an email from saying someone had added this story to their favorites, and suddenly on a whim, I thought, I have to write more!, even if I don't finish it, I have to write all of the story that I can. And so I beg, if anyone out there is reading this still, by some miracle, review, tell me it still matters to you if I finish. 3
Tohru's eyes opened, it was very dark still, and looking at the clock she saw it was indeed only 2 am. As her eyes adjusted she saw Kyou's figure outlined from the moonlight outside, he was watching her as she slept, but watching her he couldn't help but sweep aside and kiss her forehead, which had caused her to awaken.
"Kyou?" She mumbled. wearily. "Is something wrong?"
"Uh. . . no!" He had been watching over her every night since Akito arrived, he'd been watching, taking small naps throughout the day, so she wouldn't worry. "I just wanted to watch you sleep for a while."
"Oh! That's so sweet." She kissed his cheek. ". . . Kyou?"
"Yeah?"
"I know it's silly but, do you think, even though you'll be a cat, could you sleep with me tonight?" She held her breath.
"Uh-I guess, we could lock the door, but just this once, I don't want to risk anyone walking in when I'm like that."
"Ah! Thank you!" Tohru grabbed Kyou and held his feline body tight to her chest, as she fell back to sleep. While he lay awake and vigil in her arms.
"I think it's time I go back home." Akito said, as Tohru placed breakfast on his side table.
"Home? Are you sure you're well enough? I know you been here a month, but you still haven't gained your site or your memory back. And Grandmother said you were welcome as long as you needed." Tohru had been bringing Akito his meals over the past month, to the protests of the family. After losing his memory and site, he had become fond of her company, and if anyone else brought the meal, he would still ask for her, to sit and talk for a while.
"Kureno, said he would take me back tomorrow. I'd like for you to visit me though, I'm told there are some lovely gardens, we could take a walk sometime. I don't know how far it is from here, but I'm sure one of my cousins would gladly drive you there anytime. And of course I could never be happy until I meet your baby."
"Well then, okay. Once she is born, we'll both walk with you in your garden."
"That's wonderful, now it can be a happy last day!"
"Yes. I'm sorry please excuse me for a bit." Tohru left the room to find Grandmother.
"Ah! Grandmother, I'd like to make a cake for Akito if that's alright. He'll be going home tomorrow, and I thought it'd be a lovely gift. I think I remember Shigure saying he likes lemon chiffon"
"Hmm...I have most of the ingredients, but we'll need to go to the market for the lemons." Grandmother smiled. "Give me a few minutes to get ready we'll go together."
"I hope he'll like it, losing your memory can change you tastes in food." Tohru smiled, picking out 3 lemons.
"Oh I'm sure that he'll like it, as long as you bake it with love, dear."
"Yes! I will." Tohru clenched her fists and nodded a serious nod. "Eh!" She looked down. "Grandmother!" Grandmother had walked out of site. "I think my water broke." She sighed fainting as she ended her sentence.
A/N: I don't know if I will finish the story, but I do know that I will try, it may take another year for all I know, but I'm also aware I'm only 2 chapters from being done, maybe 3, so I will try
