Reaching You
Chapter 5: Strait from Heaven


"Tohru..." Kyo yelled down at her, his voice droned from thunder, "Get outta' here!! I'll tell you, you won't like what you'll see!" Tears were hidden in the rain, "Get...outta'...here.."

"Don't jump!! Please, Kyo!!" her sobs were unbareable for him to have to watch. He had hurt her more? But he thought this is what she wanted...no more pain, just happy days...and with Kyo the Cat of the Zodiac there, there was no such thing as happiness.

"Tohru..."

"Don't jump!! Kyo...please....I prayed for you...I prayed for you so the angels will watch over you...you can't' do this!! YOU CAN'T!" Tohru pleaded, falling to her knees and cradling her head in her hands. "Please.....can't you see I care for you...?"

"Yeah, but I'm doing what's best....for...for everyone else..." Kyo's gaze fell down on her, eyes locking with her cobalt ones. "If...I die...now...there will be...no other...Zodiac cat...in the Zodiac...there will be no one..." He lifted his fist to the sky, lightening flashing and making the water on his beads shimmer, "NO ONE...WILL HAVE TO LIVE...WITH THESE BEADS...!!" He cried out in the air.

"Kyo...please...I know...I know that you're pain is overwhelming...that no one seems to love you...but...it's not your fault your like this...it's not, Kyo, It's not...Yuki...and the other rats, they have their place in the family...because...because you had to get tricked...it's not fair that the cat had to go through with that...!! Just not fair, Kyo, not fair...but if you were to know..."

May the angels be with Kyo...

"...that I care for you..."

And if I die...before you...

"...as much as you showed...that you cared for me...'

I'd be the first...to wrap my wings around you...

"...would that stop...your attempt..."

And protect you...forever.

"...to disappear? And leave eve—leave me...forever...?

Forever...

"...K-kyo..."

Why...can't you just see...

"Why can't...you tell how much...

How much I want to be with you...

"...how much...

I want us to be together, Kyo!!

"...how...much I l-love...you?
The rain constantly pounded the rooftop which Kyo stood. I couldn't believe it...had she said what I thought she said? Does...Tohru...love me?

No one in the Sohma family...can love anyone...they'll only get hurt worse. Much worse

Akito's acid-like words dripped in Kyo's head, worse than any headache. Kyo shook his head of ginger hair, moaning. He bent down, not knowing what to say to Tohru. Killing myself...would only hurt her more...
"...and I love her...I don't want her to be hurt."
Tohru's head rose up, staring at the troubled neko, "Kyo...please...don't jump..." shimmering tears rolled down her cheeks as she stared up at the boy on the roof...the Cat of the Zodiac.
"...It's true isn't it?" Kyo said looking down at her, "You...really can say...anything...even though you aren't the brightest...or the most graceful...You're words..." Kyo looked down at the angel, "Are truly...strait from Heaven..."

Kyo felt her tears, felt her heart beat, felt her shock, felt her smile of what he said. But...wait...Kyo's eyes fell shut, No...I'm growing weak again...his feet seemed to feel motionless. No...I can't...fall...

Slowly...slowly the cat's foot slipped.
Tohru!!
My Notes: Now that, my friends, is evil isn't it? I'm sorry for the cliffies lately, but I did say that I would update a lot faster now. Hope you guys are enjoying, PLEASE review. Thanks! Oh, and if you're a fan of Kyo and Tohru then prepare...I'm a good writer of them!! –cracks knuckles- Anyways, I have another story: I Will Always Protect You that I wrote and it's Kyoru all the way!! Anyways, it's not much up it's kind of bad compared to this though . Later much!--Kiyoshi
