Hmmm…This will tell you why those men were chasing to kill Tohru…it may be a little sad though…some memories cannot be forgotten..

My Best Friend
Kyou paced the length of his room. His face was full of concentration as he sub-consciously bit his lip thinking. Ohhhh! How am I ever going to tell her? I can't…I…I…just can't…the memories! Kyou shut his eyes tight in an attempt to block them. But! I must tell her that her life is in danger at anytime because of me… Kyou stopped and looked out of his window, always loving the sunset and the greenery to ease his troubles and worries. Kyou had changed out of his clothing to a navy blue shirt with black jeans as his collared shirt was…well…uncomfortable…Kyou remembered Tohru's lips pressing against him…MAN, CONCENTRATE, KYOU! You've got to tell her the main problem. "GrrRRR! WHAT AM I GOING TO DO!" Kyou ruffled his hair in frustration.
Kyou turned at the sound of the knock. "Come in!" Kyou said as he quickly tried to smooth back his hair but with little success. Tohru entered and Kyou stared at her, she had changed into a simple dress and her hair looked neater compared to the last time…She is absolutely beautiful… "Is something wrong, Kyou? Why is your hair so…messy?" Tohru questioned, her face full of concern and puzzlement. "Nothing…and don't bother about my hair" Kyou sighed and motioned for her to sit beside him on his bed. Tohru went and sat next to him.
The silence dragged on and became quite uncomfortable; Tohru sneaked a glance at him and saw his troubled yet depressed look again. What is wrong? Was it something I did…the kiss? Don't tell me he hates me! Tohru opened her mouth to apologize when Kyou got up and began pacing. "I…need to tell you…something, Tohru…it was regarding this morning about …the two men." So it wasn't something I did…Tohru sighed with relief and then felt questions rising in her. Those men…they had wanted to kill me…I'm sure of it…but why? Tohru shuddered at her thoughts and she felt hands weighed upon her shoulders.
Tohru looked up and Kyou said gently, "Don't worry, I'm here to protect you…and I need to explain…so please, just listen." Tohru nodded and Kyou went straight to the point…
"Well…it's just that…it's my character…you see…I was young back then and was rather impulsive and hotheaded…I was stupid…plain stupid…and didn't think about my actions until later on…"
Akito! Come on! We've got to catch those wanted criminals!
Alright! Alright! Man…You sure always get excited…
The!!! Of course! We're doing justice, you know, less lives will be lost if more murderers were caught, right?
Ok,ok! Sheesh and double sheesh…let's go!
We arrived and busted the place, I looked around, making sure I missed no one…then I saw movement from the corner of my eye…I whirled around and pursued…
Hey! Stop! I drew out my gun…Stop, Or I"LL SHOOT! Akito chased me, NO! Don't SHOOT HIM, KYOUUU! The man made no intention of stopping and I triggered the gun. BANG! The man went down and at that moment of what seemed like long falling, Akito had yelled BROTHERRRRRR! NOOOOO! Akito had kneeled beside him, head bent low, tears fell from his cheeks…he turned his head to me…I was still in shock and was taken aback by the hatred in his eyes…I WILL KILL ALL YOU HOLD DEAR, I SWEAR! He had yelled at me…my best friend…I had killed what I thought was one of the murderers and now…I…looked at the blood on the ground, the corpse and turned…running away…away…away…
"I should have just arrested him! I should have!" By now, Kyou was kneeling on the ground, in front of her, tears rolling down his cheeks. His shoulders shook as a sob broke from him. Eyes screwed tight, his misery was overwhelming. Tohru did not know what to say…what should I do…Kyou…I…I…Tohru stood up and drew Kyou into her arms. She hugged him as Kyou placed his head below her chin. Tohru looked up at the ceiling…Kyou…don't blame yourself so…please…this is not your fault…
He did not know what he was doing but Tohru was so nice to him. I shouldn't show such weakness to her! I am always strong, aren't I? But I…my best friend…I…I…I'm sorry…I'm sorry…SO SORRY! Kyou's arms went around Tohru's waist and he pulled her closer to him, feeling her warmth was wonderful. He breathed in deeply her scent as he struggled to stop crying. Finally, he stood up and Tohru looked at him worriedly. "Kyou…go to sleep…I'll stay with you…" Kyou nodded, he climbed to bed and Tohru tucked the sheets around him…and slowly she watched as Kyou gradually drifted to sleep…
