Yo! I'm back…Hope that this may prove rather exciting to you. And I will try to write longer chapters if I have the time…Umm…the bold thoughts Kyou thinks of is when he has a flashback and this is his inner thinking at the present. Ok? By the way, Kyou does not change into a cat in this story.

Baths Forgotten
Tohru entered the bathroom. (Forgetting to lock the door) Finally…a bath…Tohru slowly took off her clothes, placed them aside and stepped into the bathtub. Maybe…Kyou might be surprised by the new looks of the kitchen…Tohru giggled, imaginating Kyou's expression and smiled to herself. She turned and was about to reach out to turn the tab for water when she heard footsteps nearing, heading towards the bathroom…towards me…Oh no! Tohru grabbed her towel, drew the curtain divider and stood in the bathtub, hidden just by the divider. Tohru prayed hard that Kyou won't want to take a bath…
"Aghooo!" Kyou yawned once more as he opened the bathroom door and entered. Funny…this peculiar smell…is familiar…Kyou sniffed the air and finally decided to ignore it. Bath first…think later…Kyou placed his towel next to the basin and began unbuttoning his black-collared shirt. One button, two buttons, soon his chest was revealed, showing off the tanned skin Kyou had. Kyou abruptly stopped, his shirt still tangling around his shoulders. He had heard a gasp…and a sigh! Kyou stiffened and let his crimson eyes wander around the bathroom. Clothes! Woman's clothes! His eyes narrowed at that moment as he picked the clothes up. Realization hit him, why didn't I notice before…Toh…ru…Tohru is in here! He whirled around and drew aside the curtain divider and there stood Tohru…her long brown hair wet with what seemed sweat, her eyes widening at being discovered, her hand clutched tight…on…on…only a towel to cover her from his sight…
"Yek!" Tohru squeaked out as she stared straight into Kyou's crimson eyes, which was still expressing shock. She searched deeper into the depths of his eyes and found herself lost in it. There was shock, yes, disbelief and…and…lust or is it love? Tohru quickly looked away, blushing.
Kyou did not know what to do…Tohru was staring at him so intently and now, looking away, blushing. Oh hell! I feel like kissing her…this can't be happening…I forgot her…didn't I? About the love, I think, we used to share. Kyou shook his head to clear his mind and turned to walk out of the bathroom. I am not going to say anything…
Tohru looked up when Kyou turned to leave. No! Don't go away from me again! Her heart shouted in protest while her mind was thinking and reminding her…It's better this way. Her heart won over and the next, she knew, she was holding Kyou back and pulling him back into the bathroom. "WHAT…THE!" Kyou yelled and was stopped short when Tohru kissed him. She had placed both hands on his shoulders and pushing him back against the wall.
Her lips brushed gently against his and slowly, she boldly pressed her lips to his, demanding. Kyou tensed at Tohru's actions but Tohru persisted. Gradually, Kyou's guard went down and he returned her kiss.
Why is my heart thumping so fast…god…she tastes sweet…Kyou closed his eyes and moaned as her lips left his to trail butterfly kisses down his neck. This feels so good…so right…Kyou thought with pleasure as Tohru's right hand went to his left shoulder and pushed down his shirt, leaving it tangling only from his right shoulder. Oh…man…Kyou shuddered as Tohru head steadily made her way down…Suddenly, an image was slowly pushing its way into his mind. He tried to ignore it but…
Kyou…Kyou! I turned and watched as Tohru ran towards me…you are my sunshine…forever…
I have something for you, Kyou…Tohru approached me with that wonderful smile and her eyes shining with love for me…love? Do I love her?
I got you this…Her hands opened to reveal a…
Tohru stopped kissing Kyou. She stepped back and admire him…he is still so tan and so… so perfect. Kyou stood, arms at his side, his head tilted to the left for Tohru to have better access to kissing his neck. The shirt was rather crumpled already and his breathing was still slightly unstable. Eyes closed and his lips slightly parted, Kyou looked so angelic. His orange hair partially covered his right eye and Tohru gently pushed aside the orange hair from his eyes as Kyou slowly opened them…
What? Kyou's mind was now a blank but the image was still freshly imprinted in his mind. He blinked slowly and finally found Tohru looking back at him with…love…longing? Oh god…I kissed her! I shouldn't have, not when I might lose her…LOSE HER!?!? Kyou's thoughts threatened to drown him. What am I THINKING…I don't love her…not now…not ever… Kyou pushed away from the wall, grabbing his towel and pulling his shirt back on. He could still feel Tohru's warm touch and kisses. She had marked him in some sense, he didn't know why.
Kyou looked straight into Tohru's brown eyes and said softly, "Don't ever do this to me again, Tohru, I want you in my room in five minutes, we need to talk." With that, he left.
Tohru stared after Kyou as he left. She knew he had felt something…there was just…something…love? I hope…Tohru sighed and slowly, she followed Kyou to his room…
