Kyo lay on the roof of the Sohma house. Even though the air was chilled from the approaching darkness, the roof had absorbed the heat of the sun, making it a welcoming place for Kyo.

He flipped unto to his stomach to warm himself. Plucking idly at his beads, he thought for a moment.

"...I can just see myself more with Kyo..."

His face softened. He could. He knew he would. And that he should. But something on the inside was just eating away at him. The Curse of the Zodiac.

Kyo quickly excluded any thoughts of the Zodiac. The prom(OOF(owner of fanfic): I know before I said dance, but who wants to see Kyo-kun and Tohru-kun in casual wear? It's tuxedos and dresses all around Hun. ) was coming up on Tuesday. He should be worrying about that.

He sighed, a puff of pearly fog appearing before his mouth. Dinner was ready; he could smell the fried catfish and could just about hear Tohru walking out to get him.

Saving her the trouble, he jumped down and walked to the house, wondering what was next.

...................................................................

(OOF: HI! I decided instead of writing biiiiiiiiiig long thingies about the days, I'd make them all short-ish, until we got to the prom. Hmm. It seems too early to put in the prom, and I gotta make a chapter where you all find out who Yuki will like. :3 I'LL TRY TO MAKE IT THIS CHAPTER.)

The trio walked to school as always. It seemed as if nothing had changed since Sunday's event, except that Kyo and Tohru, seemed a little closer. Everything worked out smoothly.

They trudged on, making small talk of the upcoming prom, how the other Sohma's were doing... stuff like that. They were all pretty tired.

Kyo stopped in his tracks, hearing someone following them. Kyo turned around to see. Tohru and Yuki, wondering what it was, stopped to look behind them.

A pink and black blur was headed in Kyo's direction. Stiff, upright cat ears appeared on Kyo's bright orange head as he realized who it was.

Kagura.

Yuki smiled devilishly. "Hey, stupid cat. It's your girlfriend." He wanted to see this. Kyo turned, ears flattened, a look of fury on his face. "SHE'S NOT MY GIRLFRIEND! You know that damn well, rat boy!" Tohru smiled and tried to calm them down best he could.

"KYO-KUN! UUUUAAAAAA!" Kagura glomped him from behind, arms around his neck with Kyo's spine curved back(as Kagura is shorter, you know). "Why haven't you..." Kagura then began to choke him. "VISITED ME?!?!" Kyo tried to pull her off, while Yuki stared at the scene stoically and Tohru freaked out.

Finally pulling her off, gulping in air he screamed. "BECAUSE I HATE YOU, DAMNIT!" Loud enough for Shigure to hear back at the house.

Kagura punched his left cheek, sending him to the ground. "Kyo-kun, don't say things you don't mean!" She said, hands on her hips for emphasis. "How could you hate someone who loves you sooooooo much?" She said, smiling down on him. "Oh, and I heard your prom was coming up Tuesday, and I can't wait for you to take me!" She exclaimed, eyes shining as she happily imagining the prom

.

Kyo got up silently, without even nurturing the inflicted wound. Tohru stared at the scene, feeling something happen to the usual happy aura around them.

It was time.

"Kagura..." Kyo's crimson eyes became an angry red fire as he stared down upon her, a rather serious look on his face; a departure from his usual angry expression. Kagura looked surprised. He stood, wordlessly. It felt like the silence right before a volcano erupted and then... it exploded.

"YOU... DAMN YOU! I'VE PUT UP WITH YOUR CRAP ALL MY LIFE AND I'M TIRED OF IT. YOU SAY YOU LOVE ME BUT YOU ALWAYS PUT YOUR WANTS AND YOUR NEEDS AHEAD OF MINE! THAT ISN'T LOVE; THAT'S A SICK OBSESSION! I USED TO NOT HAVE THE COURAGE TO TELL YOU THIS BUT I THINK SHOULD NOW. I. DO. NOT. LIKE. YOU. YOU COULD HAVE A FUTURE WAY BEYOND ME, Y'KNOW. YOU COULD BECOME SO MANY DAMN GREAT THINGS IF YOU'D JUST FORGET ABOUT ME! READ A BOOK, GET A HOBBY, WATCH ANIME... I DON'T CARE. JUST GO!" He huffed. Kagura looked taken aback. She could feel a pressure on her chest, like she was suffocating and then... she started to cry. Tohru looked at Kagura, obviously worried.

Kyo's bangs shadowed his eyes. "I'm sorry..." he murmured. "It wasn't supposed to come out that way..." Yuki walked up, violet eyes warm. He put a hand gently on Kagura's shoulder and she looked up.

"It's okay..." He smiled sadly at his cousin. "I know what it's like to love someone so much and not have the feeling returned." Yuki said, slipping his arm around Kagura's shoulders, As a result, Kagura began to cry more at his kind words. Tohru felt a lump in her throat form at that.

"I'll take her back to Shigure's. You go on ahead of me..." He said to Kyo and Tohru. Tohru nodded and continued walking, Kyo soon following.

The two walked to school, guilt eating away at there innards as they went.

Uo sat on a desk with Hana sitting below her(as to get a good view of Hana's head.

"Okay, curling iron's heated." said Uo, clicking it twice and wrapping a lock of Hana's ebony hair around it.

"Oh, look... Tohru." Hana said quietly, looking out the window to Tohru and Kyo. Uo looked up from Hana's hair.

"Yeah, carrot-top too." She release Hana's hair. pulling the curl and watch it bounce back. "Those two have been spending a lot of time together lately." Uo stated, plainly.

"More time than with Yuki?" asked Hana, perking a little. Uo looked surprised at that before realized. "Yes... You know what that means." Uo smiled, almost smugly.

"We'll be paying orange-head a visit on Tuesday." Hana smiled in turn, an aura of darkness around her.

A/N: YAY. I think this chappie was short. x.x I need to add a romantic one with Yuki. If you haven't guessed who he likes already, it's Kagura, ; Misery loves company. Last chapter(Ch. 3) was a real downer! Badly written, and kind of sad. ;.; Sorry, nezumi lovers. HEY. Every notice if you ever reverse the syllables of Yu-ki, it sounds sorta like Kyo's name? And if you do the same with Kyo's name, it sounds like Yuki's? ;3 Sorry. I'm bored. I have a feeling this chappie was short. oo; Bah. I love reviews. Got any? Well, if you don't want those reviews I will GLADLY take them. =v= I 3 reviews. they make me feel crazy coo. xD BYE.
