Kyo stared at the picture for a while, thinking about the past again. He shook his head violently, 'no, she's gone, she left, she's out of your life find someone new. Maybe you'll forget about her and find someone new in Tokyo.' Kyo said to himself, but a part of him kept saying 'Kaiya is in Tokyo!' only to have the other voice say 'What would she want with you?' Kyo gave in to this voice and put the picture aside and started packing his suitcase.
The next day Kyo got two letters in the mail addressed to him. One was his ticket to Tokyo and the other was from the place in Tokyo he was going to be working. They wanted to see a sample of Kyos work before he came. Kyo sighed and grabbed his camera, loaded it and started walking around the house with it. Shigure was in his study asleep on his desk. Kyo took a picture of that and started searching the house for other pictures he could take. He found Yuki and Tohru in the kitchen cooking, well Tohru was cooking and Yuki was supervising. He took several sequenced pictures of Tohru chopping up vegetables, then Yuki at her side, then Yuki feeding her one of the vegetables then of Tohru placing a hand on Yuki's face, the last in the sequence was of Tohru and Yuki kissing. He cleared his throat and the two pulled apart.
"Did you want something Kyo-kun? Lunch will be ready in about ten minutes."
"Can I ask you a favor Tohru?"
"Always, I'll do my best." Tohru said with a smile. Yuki scowled at his cousin.
"Don't worry your girly head Yuki, I just want to take a few pictures of Tohru to submit as samples to the place I'll be working at in Tokyo."
Yuki grunted and Tohru put on a questioning face. "But Kyo, why would you want to take pictures of me? Im not very beautiful?"
Kyo let Yuki handle this one. He knew if he said it Yuki would kill him.
"What are you talking about Tohru? Your very beautiful, you would make a very pretty model for Kyo." Yuki said reassuringly. Kyo nodded. Tohru only blushed and nodded, "Hai, will after lunch be ok?" Kyo nodded again and headed for the phone.
"May I speak to Kisa please?" Kyo tapped his fingers on the telephone table while he waited.
"Moshi, moshi?" a timid voice on the other end answered.
"Kisa, this is Kyo, I need you to do me a favor."
"Depends what it is Kyo-kun." "Its not that big of a deal, I just need you to pose for some pictures with Tohru."
"Take pictures with onee-san! Sure! When should I come?"
"After lunch. Can you call Haru to come too? If I ask I think he'll go black." Kisa agreed and hung up excited.
"Once again our little flower has out done herself." Shigure complimented patting his full stomach after lunch. Tohru blushed as she cleared the table. Yuki got up to help when the doorbell rang. "I'll get it." Kyo said flatly getting up. He opened the door to reveal Kisa and Haru.
"Well you gonna let us in or what?" Haru said dryly.
Kyo moved aside and let the two in closing the door behind them. He led them into the living room where everyone else was. Kisa immediately ran to Tohru and gave he a tight hug. Kyo took a picture of this unnoticed. The open doors to outside gave off a very good light source.
"What are you two doing here?" Tohru asked surprised once they all sat down.
"Kyo invited us." Kisa beamed. Tohru looked over at Kyo questioningly. "Did you really Kyo?"
"Yeah, I thought you might be self conscious if you were the only one in the pictures." Tohru blushed and thanked Kyo.
A little while later they all put their shoes on and went outside to the location Kyo had picked earlier. It was near a grove of Cherry blossom trees. The petals fell lightly to the ground in the wind.
Tohru stood under one of the trees and closed her eyes taking the sent of the blossoms as the wind blew through her hair. The sun shone through the branches, Kyo took this opportunity and snapped a picture. Tohru snapped out of her trance shocked, "I didn't know we were starting! I wasn't ready." Kyo laughed as Kisa ran up to Tohrus side. "Tohru, can u lift Kisa into the air and twirl her around?" Kyo asked, Tohru nodded and did as Kyo asked. Both girls started laughing and Kyo snapped a few pictures. Kyo asked them to do a few more things before turning his attention to Haru.
"Haru." Kyo punched Haru across the face sending Haru into black mode. Kyo was a few meters away and took a few pictures of Haru lunging at him. He took pictures of Haru as he dodged the attacks. After a while Haru calmed down and sat against the tree exhausted. "You did that just for pictures didn't you." Haru said panting a bit.
"Yup." Kyo and Haru both laughed a single laugh in amusement. Kisa went up to Haru and sat in his lap and closed her eyes. Kyo took a picture of that and turned around and saw Tohru with Yuki. They were standing under a different Sakura tree. Yuki pushed back a strand of Tohrus hair behind her ear while Kyo snapped another picture.
They all walked back to the house when Kyo announced he had run out of film. When they got back he locked himself into his room and went into his closet that he had turned into a dark room where he developed his pictures. He was in there for a while and was almost done when he heard a knocking on the closet door. "Just a minute!" he yelled as he hung up the last picture.
Kyo walked out of his closet and found Tohru standing there with a tray of food in her hands. "I thought you might be hungry."
"Thanks."
"We tried calling you down for dinner but I guess you didn't hear."
"Sorry, I had music on before."
"Really, what were you listening too?" Kyo held up the CD case. "Cursed?" Tohru said tilting her head to the side.
"Better known as Kaiya." Kyo said expressionlessly. Tohru gasped.
"Well, it seems she's made something of herself. You ok Kyo?"
"Why wouldn't I be?"
Tohru shrugged and left the room.
"She was only the biggest part of my life." Kyo muttered to the empty room and took a bit of the burger Tohru brought up.
Kyo sent the pictures to Tokyo the next morning and showed the doubles to everyone at breakfast. Tohru and Yuki blushed at the pictures of them in the kitchen and at the tree. Everyone else smiled at the pictures.
"Your very talented Kyo, I hope you do well in Tokyo." Kisa said as she looked at some of the pictures with her and Tohru. "Can I have these ones?" She said holding up the one of her being spun around by Tohru and the one of her sitting with Haru. "I don't have any pictures with onee-san and oni- san." (She calls Haru oni-san in this fic) Kyo nodded and Kisa jumped happily around and hugged Kyo. "Thank you Kyo-kun!" "No problem"
"Kyo, how did you make all these pictures of us moving and stuff not come out blurry?" Tohru asked intently.
Kyo shrugged, "Practice." Was all he said and walked up to his room. Kyo turned on his computer and scanner and took the picture of him and Kaiya and scanned it. He spent the rest of the afternoon playing around with the picture. Fine touching it modifying it a bit. After two hours he stared at his finished product.
"You really miss her don't you?" a voice said from behind him. Kyo jumped, he hadn't heard anyone come in. He turned and found Yuki standing behind him. Kyo minimized the screen, hiding the picture from his rival.
"What do you want Yuki?"
"Just wanted to ask if I can have these pictures of me and Tohru. You did a nice job with them." Kyo was shocked Yuki was actually complimenting him. "No really,"
"Really. Im not kidding and Im not out to blackmail you in some way. Im serious. You've come a long way since high school and have really made something of yourself. I wish you good luck in Tokyo."
Kyo got up and now stood face to face in front of his rival. He looked at Yuki and realized he no longer really thought of Yuki as a rival. Had he even come to respect him over the years? Kyo stuck out a hand to Yuki. "Thanks Yuki, it means a lot hearing that from you." Yuki took Kyos hand and gave him a hug, which Kyo returned. They heard a snap and quickly let go of each other. They turned and saw Tohru with Kyos camera in her hands. "Now if that's not worth commemorating, then I don't know what is. You two finally buried the hatchet. So are you two friends now?" Tohru asked with a smile.
Both boys looked at each other, "Guess so." Tohru hugged both of them together and started crying tears of joy. "Finally." Was all that escaped her mouth.
Both Kyo and Yuki looked at each other and hugged Tohru back.
That night Kyo lay in his bed looking out the window at the moon. He was leaving tomorrow. Kyo turned on his side and saw the plane ticket on this bedside table. 'Tomorrow, just a few hours away, in a few hours, I'll be leaving this all behind. At least I fixed one thing before I left. And who knows, maybe I'll see her in Tokyo.' Kyo closed his eyes and settled into a deep sleep.
