Hello everyone! I'm finally to the 5th chapter! Hurray me!
Just so you know... THERE IS NO CURSE IN THIS FIC!
Heh heh... *sweats*
Now for the shout Out's:
Thank you to Qkslvr and Yamatoforever for giving me the great ideas. See, what I did was combine both of your wonderful ideas and come up with the rest of the plot for my story. Thanks guys, if it weren't for you, I'd still be brainstorming…
Thanks Koneko for beta-ing my fic. Hi Red! *Waves happily* LunaCatt99! Hey wassup chica? I still want you to read that chapter of that 'one' thing, so don't forget about it.
Koneko: LOOK! I'm beta-ing! ::snicker::… I wonder if Tenshi will keep this… ::ponders::
TNA: ...Koneko no Baka!
Koneko: Sticks and stones luv ::swoons over Captain Jack Sparrow::
TNA: Yeah, he is really hot tho... *licks lips* anything else to add Koneko?
Koneko: LET THEM EAT CAKE! ...and read my fics...
TNA: Yeah, ignoring the cake part *glares at Koneko who is grinning* You guys should read Koneko's newest fic "Into the dark" if you already haven't. It's an awesome vamp fic... Yuki/Kyou too!
Koneko: you talk too much... but yeah, read my fic, you might even like it.
Oh guys! There's this really great site that in still pretty new, but it focuses on Shounen-ai and Yaoi fanfiction only. And if you have fanfiction you want posted somewhere else, just go to the site and contact the creator, I'm sure she'd be glad to post it! Just make sure that they're at least shounen-ai hints. Please check my bio for the link!
Oh, and one more thing. You know all of you fans out there who were pissy at me for discontinuing 'Ill always love you'? Well, be pissy no more! Someone e-mailed me recently telling me that she'd like to finish the fic! It'll still be under my name, but this other person will be writing everything. So just watch out for it! Ahem... I guess I should get to the chapter now... ^_^
(Koneko: …maybe…)
Chapter 5Kyou looked around one more time, jumped off the roof and headed toward the house. Just minutes earlier, his cousin Shigure had yelled up for him to come down. Kyou, feeling guilty, managed to lie perfectly still until he could no longer see his cousin, and decided to inspect the damages.
The orange-haired Sohma gazed at the enormous house before him and shuddered. How in the hell was he ever going to adapt to living with a roof over his head and people pressing him in at the sides? And with that boy... that beautiful boy. Kyou had racked his mind over and over and got nothing. But he couldn't help feeling that there was something he was missing, something important...something funny about that kid.
"I mean jeez," He said aloud, opening the front door and walking to the couch. "What kinda kid faints spontaneously like that? Fuck'n kooks around here..." He plopped down on the couch and spied a beautiful green velvet photo album lying on the couch. "Kooks man..."
"Excuse me sir, did you say something?"
"AH!" Kyou flew up and glared at the intruder. "What the... who are you?"
A short girl of about 16 years was at the closet shrugging out of her jacket. "I'm very sorry to have bothered you sir." She closed the door and walked over to stand before the startled boy. "It's very nice to meet you. My name is Honda ,Tohru; I am the maid for Shigure and Yuki Sohma."
Kyou studied the girl before him. She was very pretty, a short girl with a very thin frame. Her rather heart shaped face fit in perfectly with her enormous sparkly blue eyes and long brown hair, and the expression on her face was of pure joy. 'Jesus,' Kyou thought, 'if she was any happier, she'd have to explode.'
Kyou noticed he was staring and glanced away. "Yeah, my names Kyou, and I'm gonna be living here from now on too. But yeah don't got to take care of me, 'cause I don't need anybody to do anything for me- "
He was interrupted as the girl pressed her face into his and began to yammer on eagerly. "Oh no! Please, I'm being paid to take care of all of the Sohma's and I wouldn't feel right if I couldn't take care of you too! Now I'm not talking about being your slave or anything, I just come over once a day and make sure all the laundry's done and have dinner on the table. Is that… omigosh!"
In her sudden haste to be forgiven, she didn't realize that she was leaning so far into him that he began to tip over. She reached out hurriedly to pull him back and…CRASH! She fell into Kyou and grabbed him just as they hit the ground.
"Oh no! Kyou-kun, are you alright?" She tried to steady herself but her hand slipped and she ended up back on her face, body pressed into his. "Oh GOMEN NASSAI Kyou-kun! I'm such a klutz! It's no wonder you don't want me to be your maid!"
Kyou looked at the girls trembling face and began to panic. "No, no, it's not your fault. I don't care if you wanna be my maid."
They both turned when they heard a noise. Yuki was standing at the top of the stairs, looking down at them with the strangest look on his face.
*******************************************************************
"Oh, Ohayo Gozaimousu, Yuki-kun!" Tohru realized her position and pushed away from Kyou quickly. "Sohma-kun, this is not what it looks like, I promise!" She jumped to her feet and immediately turned to me and bowed. "Are you feeling ok? You look very tired. Maybe you should go back upstairs and let me fix you something to eat."
My eyes swept over Tohru and landed on Kyou. Kyou… and Tohru? What the hell had they been doing down here? I knew Tohru would never do anything like that… but the thought of her lying on my koi like that made my blood curl.
"I am fine." I almost snapped. "But can you please come back later? I'm not feeling well enough to see people."
"Oh, of course Sohma-kun!" She said brightly, picking up her bag. "I'm sorry to have disturbed you. I will come back tomorrow and work extra hard, ok?" Tohru glanced at Kyou. "It was nice to meet you!"
Kyou nodded. "You too." She bowed once more before exiting quietly.
I stood there for a minute and watched her walk away, forgetting Kyou standing at my back.
"What's your first name kid?"
"Eh?" I turned and felt myself blushing. "Uh, Yuki. My name is Yuki."
Kyou looked at me for a ling time and I felt myself tremble. "What? What are you looking at?" It was heaven having those pretty red eyes staring at me again. Maybe he could remember… maybe it could be…
Kyou scoffed. "Why in the hell would I wanna look at you? I ain't interested in your sorry ass. I don't even wanna be in this fucking house, but Kasuma-san won't let me train with him any more until I become more sociable. So whatever you do, just keep the hell away from me, and try not to do that fainting thing anymore, 'cause it'll get annoying as hell having to carry you everywhere. What are you, some kinda sissy boy?"
I felt sick. This wasn't my Kyou. This wasn't the boy who would hold my hand on the way home from school and tell me how beautiful I was to him. Kyou, my koi, my protector, was calling me the same names kids used to in grade school, the same kids he would always protect me from. He had changed, and nothing I could do would change him back.
Feeling hollow, I spit hateful words back in his face. "No, I'm not some kind of sissy, you buffoon. And don't worry; nobody wants you in this house to begin with. WE didn't ask to have you here, and it wasn't in our power to
say 'no'. Haven't you ever heard of something called 'tact'? It might come in handy if you ever encounter any other people who are more willing to kick your ass." I smiled coldly and watched his chest swell.
This is how it is to be.
Tbc...
Heh heh *Sweats* Sorry! I'm sorry it's been so long since I updated, but I promise that now I'll update faster. I've just been in this horrible rut, but thanks to y'alls reviews and some peoples advice *worships Qkslvr and Yamatoforver* I finally got this damn chappie out. I don't know why, but I could never get it right. And now I know that it's not very interesting, but it's getting there... just you wait and see. And to some of you I'm sorry, but Tohru is going to have to be in this fic. She's not going to be THAT important though... and just so you know, she's their housekeeper and she doesn't live there. I couldn't take TOO much of her. And sorry to some Tohru fans for her ditsy-ness, but I don't wanna make her too OOC. I don't like her that much to be honest...
'Till next time folks! Which will be sooner, promise ^_~
Tenshi no Ai
Oh, Quicke-chan REALLY needs to write another Furuba fic. Why? I dunno I really love 'em! Please Qkslvr! *begs* I love your fics!
