The next day I woke to find that Kaiya was still asleep in her 'bed'. I
stared at her for a moment, remembering only a few days ago I thought that
she was an ordinary girl. Well not ordinary, girls aren't exactly what I
call ordinary, but then again, who said I was very ordinary. I sighed and
got to my feet, but then felt dizzy and plopped right back down on my bed.
The whole room spun as I sat there, to dizzy to move.
After a few minutes, I started back up slowly and clung to the walls for support. As I made my way down the hall to the bathroom, I almost bumped into Tohru. "Oh, your awake. You know, you shouldn't be walking about the house, your sick, you should be in bed." She said in a worried tone. "Well there's not a bathroom in my bed room." I said with a smile in my voice. "Well, you go then, but you might need to go downstairs, I think Shigure is taking a shower in the one down the hall." "Ok, thanks, but um." "Yes Kyou- kun?" "Could you help me down the stairs? I think I might land at the bottom on my face otherwise." I said, and I could feel my face going pink. "Of course" She said happily, "Anything to help."
When I got back upstairs, Kaiya was awake, but still curled up in a little ball. "I'll be back up with some soup for you Kyou-kun, and some warm milk for the cat." Tohru said when she looked over my shoulder and saw 'Kai' awake. "Thanks." I replied, and went back into my bed. It was quiet for a while, then out of now where, I said, "Why didn't you tell me before? That you were my 'similar' I mean." I looked over to Kaiya and saw that she was staring at me. Then looked away, like she was ashamed or something. "I.I.didn't think you would believe me." She stuttered in a hoarse voice. I just lay there on my bed for a minute, "I guess you have the flu too." I said, trying to lighten the mood. I saw her smile, then fall asleep again, right when Tohru walked in with the food. "I know you don't like leeks, but Sohma-san said that they were best when you have a cold." She said, unsure of how I would react to this. That damn rat! I bet he told Tohru that just so he could see me suffer through bowl after bowl of that #*$^in food from hell.
I drank the soup down with great displeasure, and at the smell of food, Kaiya woke up and drank her milk. I also gave her a few of my leeks, or rather I tried to, turns out, she don't like them either. Figures.
After that, Tohru and Yuki went off to school. I almost felt jealous of Yuki, that Kuso nezumi, got to walk to school with Tohru all be himself. But I did say I almost felt jealous. After all, I DIDN'T HAVE TO GO TO SCHOOL AT ALL!! WHOO HOO!
Later that same morning, Hatori came over to check on Kaiya and me. We didn't talk much while he was there, except for things like the occasional, "How are you felling?" and "Better.I guess" or "Do you have a bucket?" Hatori also got Kaiya a bigger blanket because she kept changing from human to cat forms because of her cold. Well so was I, but I was already in bed. It seemed with almost every sneeze, one of us was changing forms. "This must be a really bad cold if a simple sneeze is causing you to change." Hatori said. "No shit." I muttered sarcastically. I heard a small giggle then a pop from Kaiyas direction. She had just changed into a human for like the millionth time this morning. By this time, both of us had seen each other in each form numerous times, so it wasn't to awkward now, but both of us still turned to the opposite direction.
"I think both of you will be bed ridden for at least a week, maybe 5 days for you Kaiya, but that's a big maybe. I don't want either of you out of this room or your beds unless its to go to the bath room. You need your rest, Im writing a prescription for both of you. I'll send Tohru to get it later if its no trouble, otherwise I'll get it and be back with it tonight." Hatori said after a thorough inspection on both of us. "Fine." We both said at the same time as Hatori turned to walk out the door. "Hey, could you get a deck of cards?" I called after him. He nodded and was back in a few minutes with a deck of cards with a whining Shagure running after him saying something about how he was going to win that game. We could both hear them, or rather Shagure, all the way down the hall as Hatori left the house.
"You know how to play poker?" Kaiya said, breaking the silence. "No da. Aces high, seven card deal." I said grabbing the deck off the floor. We played poker, Dahimi, seven bridge, rummy, go fish, war, and speed the whole day, or at least till we got tired, that was also around the time Tohru and Yuki got home.
~*~Tohru~*~
When I arrived home with Sohma-san, we also brought back a get-well card from the class. I had asked everyone to sign it, saying that he was very ill. I hope it makes him feel better. He must have been so bored all day. But he was probably sleeping, or at least I hope he was. I want him to get well soon. I went to the kitchen to make some chicken soup out of the cabinet, but then remembered the last time Kureno came over, he threw out all the chicken items, and I hadn't gotten around to going to the store to buy more. I made a list of things to buy at the store and was about to leave when I saw a note for me on the 'fridge.
Dear Tohru, Would you mind going to the store and picking up this medicine for Kyou? If you aren't able to, I can come by later, get the prescription and buy it myself. Give me a call if you can't get it. ~Hatori Sohma
Behind the note was a small prescription paper, I grabbed it and headed for the store. "Where are you headed Tohru? It's getting late." I looked behind me and noticed that Shagure-san was standing there. "You know, some kind of bad man might want to steal you. Then we would never see our dear princess again," He said in a teary voice "And we wouldn't want that to happen now would we. I'll go fetch Yuki-kun. I would go, but Mit-chan will be here soon to pick up my new novel." Shagure finished with and evil grin, flouncing off to get Yuki.
As we walked to the store, it was a very quiet walk. Yuki-kun didn't talk much to me. Oh no! Had I made him angry! I better apologize. "Im sorry for what ever it is that I did to upset you Sohma-san." I said with a little bow. We stopped walking and he looked at me. "You didn't do anything wrong, I'm very happy to come with you." A smile coming to his face, I smiled back and we started walking again. " So what are we buying?" Yuki asked. "Um.lets see," I said taking out the list, "Milk, cheese, an assortment of soups, rice, umeboshi, some flour. I was thinking about doing some backing this weekend." "Sounds good to me." Yuki replied. "Oh yes, I almost forgot! We also have to stop by the drug store and get some medicine for Kyou-kun. Hatori-san gave me a prescription for it." I could feel Yuki go a bit tense at the sound of Kyou-kuns voice, but I just ignored it and went onward into the store.
When we got back to Shagure's house, I made the soup and went up-stairs to Kyou's room. I walked in and found Kyou sleeping in room that was a mess. There was a big blanket in the middle of the room, just for the one little cat, cards everywhere, maybe Kyou got bored of Solitaire and decided to play fifty-two pick up. There was also a very unpleasant smell coming from the room as well. I went over to his nightstand to put the food, card, and medicine there and found the culprit to the smell. I gagged as a looked into a bucket filled with.with.throw-up. I set the food down, ran downstairs to get some rubber gloves, and a gas mask, grabbed the bucket, and dumped it in the toilet. I washed the bucket and brought it, and a can of popery spray to Kyou's room. Before walking out to join the others downstairs at dinner.
~*~Kyou~*~
When I woke up the next morning, I found that the bucket next to my bed had been emptied and a bowl of cold soup on my nightstand. There was also a card, medicine and a glass of water there as well. There was a loud grumble from my stomach and realized I hadn't eaten anything since yesterday afternoon. I gobbled down the soup. When I was about to go back to sleep, I felt something jump onto my bed. "Thanks for saving me some soup." Said a little white cat in a sarcastic voice. "Well, you should he said something sooner." " I have a feeling that even if I did, it wouldn't have stopped you from eating it all." "Your right, it wouldn't have." We both smiled and started laughing, but it soon turned to coughs and wheezes. "So.who is the card from?" She asked once she got control of her coughing. "People at school I think. Haha, look what that Yankee wrote, 'hey orange top, Tohru's making me write some thing nice, so don't think Im doing this by choice, so here goes, Get well soon, and if you don't get your BUTT back HERE SOON to FIX this CRAPPY TRACK TEAM, or I'll make SURE your bed ridden for the REST- OF-YOUR-LIFE!!!' " I think she likes you Kyou." Kaiya said with a smile in her voice. "What the hell! Where the hell did you get an idea like that! Anyways, the president dude said something for you." "Really.and what does that piece of shit have to say da'me?" "Well its kind of like both of us really, kind of, sort of, he says, 'Mr. Sohma, I have taken the liberty to notice that both you and that new kid were out sick today. I better not find out that you two were both playing hooky, and off doing something dirty. I will not have you taking the girl that I plan to make my girlfriend. And please do something about that-' He just goes on to say how much the track team sucks. What are you laughing about?" "HE THINKS I WANT TO BE HIS GIRL FRIEND!!!! Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha::cough cough::" We both laughed for some time. After that, she came up and got in the blankets with me and we both laughed at all the peoples stupid comments, when there was a big "POOF" and there was a human girl next to me. When the poof first.poofed, I didn't really notice Kaiya there, but then I remembered that she was a girl and that it was very Shagure of me not to get out of the bed when the poof first poofed. I hurried and jumped out of the bed. Well, actually, it was more like stumbled, because I kind of fell to the ground, bringing some of the blankets with me. When I got up off the floor, there was only the sheet left on the bed and I quickly threw the rest of the blankets back onto the bed. For a whole 5 minutes it was chaos. From me only wearing only my boxers, to Kaiya laughing and coughing so much she almost passed out. Finally there was another "POOF" and things went back to normal when Kaiya turned into a cat. It's a good thing that Kaiya can be a cat for as long as she likes. But I guess this cold is making her.and me.change with out it being controlled. I even put a sign on my door that read,
"Will change without warning, do not disturb. Knock before entering." There was a small knock on the door. "Come in." I said And Tohru walked in with a fresh bowl of soup and another glass of water for the medicine. I looked at the tray on my nightstand and realized that I hadn't taken the medicine form before. I quickly grabbed it and hid it in my pocket. "Good morning Kyou-kun. How are you feeling?" "The same, basically. But I am hungry." "Well at least your appetite is coming back. I'll just take your old tray and leave this one here with you." "Thanks Tohru." She just smiled and walked out the door.
"Here, you can have the soup and the medicine, I'll take the medicine from before, and I already ate.so I'm not that hungry. In fact.where's that bucket?" "Over by the closet. And Kyou." "Yeah?" "Thanks." "For what?" "For everything. And Kyou? You know. it would be a lot easier to eat this in my human form. Do you have some clothes I can borrow for a little while when I eat and stuff?" Kaiya asked with a devilish grin. I gave a sigh and said ok and went to get her a pair of my cargo pants and a black shirt. "Go change in the closet." (It's my fav of Kyous outfits! Ya'll know wut Im talking about rite!)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Sorry if you don't like it, but your just going to have to deal. Yeah, well please R&R Did ya hate it? Love it? Wut? Please let me know of any changes you think I should make.
After a few minutes, I started back up slowly and clung to the walls for support. As I made my way down the hall to the bathroom, I almost bumped into Tohru. "Oh, your awake. You know, you shouldn't be walking about the house, your sick, you should be in bed." She said in a worried tone. "Well there's not a bathroom in my bed room." I said with a smile in my voice.

Later that same morning, Hatori came over to check on Kaiya and me.
