Kokoro no Hitan

I woke up a few hours later in a cloud of pink, my clothes folded neatly in a pile beside me.

When my eyes focused better, I realized that I must have been in Tohru's bed, which made me feel even worse.

"You know I don't feel the same way." The words flooded my mind and sent a wave of agony through my heart so strong there were tears rolling down my cheeks before I could even think of stopping them.

I sat up and brought my legs up to my chest, burying my face in my knees.

After a few moments I realized I should probably put my clothes on, so I sat on the edge of the bed and proceeded to do so.

No sooner had I finished, stood up and walked towards the door, did it push back before my fingers could touch it...and then the red eyes of the last person I wanted to see met my own.

I instantly looked down.

-Kagura Sohma

I felt heat flush across my face. I hadn't expected to see her standing there when I opened the door.

"Ano...Kagura...How are you feeling?

-Kyo Sohma

"Much better," I lied through my teeth. If constant pain thrown upon me the instant I wake up is better than being unconscious, then, yeah, much...better. "I was just going to get a drink."

I stepped forward and he quickly stepped to the side. I saw the shocked expression on his face as I slowly proceeded to walk down the hallway and the stairs. The hunger pains in my stomach were nothing compared to the pain in my heart. I knew that if I ate anything, my heart would force it out of my body the same way it came in. So I walked down the stairs. And out of the house.

-Kagura Sohma

~~~

I ran down the stairs and watched in dumbfounded shock as she walked slowly away from the house. I didn't know what to do. Calling her back would probably just make things worse. So I just stood there and watched...as she walked away.

-Kyo Sohma
