Chapter Two
A/N: Thank-you, Thank-you, to all that read my first chapter of many (hopefully, if I'm feeling inspired enough ) and reviewing! Reviews are so very nice, they help authors more than you can imagine! So, thank- you so much to all of you. I just want to note to any of you who might be wondering, or have asked... this story doesn't have a lot of dialogue. There is a reason for this, as a very wise person once said:
"Actions, speak louder than words"
Add that statement to the fact that just about every other Yukiru fic has they "admitting their undying (sorry, I couldn't help myself ) love for each other in dialogue. I'm not dissing these stories, in fact, I really enjoy them, but I really wanted this one to be different, you know? Something unique and special. If you have heard the song, you can tell, it's not something that is, or should be, based on dialogue. Its an Action song, and a good one if I do say so myself. That's the reason for the lack of dialogue. (Too much dialogue in a story is boring anyway, isn't it?) Mwah. Thanks for reading, I hope you continue, and I wish you pleasant waves for the remainder of the year. U (Thank you Hana, for your witty and strange comments!)

Later on they took his car,
Suddenly it became very hot, so I looked at Tohru to see if she was too. Seemingly reading my mind, she nodded, and I undid the jacket. Just as the zipper came loose, a strong breeze swept past us, blowing the jacket off my shoulders, because it was not anchored by my arms in the sleeves. My hands and arms, of course, had been inside the jacket, holding Tohru's. Just as the jacket blew off, I felt Tohru's warm hands touch mine again as she started to run toward the house. Looking back at me, she smiled at me and winked. I was so surprised to see that she was not blushing in the slightest, her cheeks were only rosy, like usual. She lead me through the trees, stopping not at the house, but at our garden. Tohru told me to close my eyes as she sat me down on the bench, so I obliged. There was a faint rustling sound before I felt something trying to enter my mouth. Confused, I opened up, eyes still closed, and realized... it was a strawberry, just a small one... being pushed into my mouth by something warm. My eyes flickered open, and they caught with hers; those deep blue eyes, that I was drowning in. I crushed the strawberry once, then allowed her tongue to penetrate into my mouth. As if by instinct, my arms circled her body in an embrace. It felt so good, yet I hadn't failed to notice... the fact that I was still human, and not mouse. Nothing could have made the moment better. Tohru seemed to notice this as well; she returned my gesture as we finished our kiss.
"Mmm... That was good." I said, smiling at her; the most beautiful thing in the world. Our position was the same, accept, without either of us noticing, we had stood up during the union of our kiss. Our eyes were three inches away from each other, locked; noses rubbing against one another so gently. A loving smirk crossed my face. It was now my turn to lead Tohru somewhere... and I knew exactly where.
Together we ran, this time it was me looking back at her smiling face and winking. We ran back to the house, where I stopped her, to hide.
We ended up hiding on the side of the house, crouched down giggling slightly. Biting my lip, I tried to subdue my heavy breathing, knowing that Kyo would be able to hear it if he came close, which was a real threat, seeing as his and Shigure's voices could be heard, calling our names. Even though I was finding that I didn't care much about the fact that they were probably worried, or for their well being at all at the moment; I thought it might be fair to leave a note, just incase they did something incredibly stupid, like phone the police.
With Tohru's hand in my right, I began to search my pockets for a notebook and pen with my left. Unable to find what I was looking for in my left pocket, and Tohru noticing this, she motioned my hand into my right pocket, carrying hers with it. Together we managed to find a small memo pad and pen, trying our best to stifle our snickers. Tohru winked at me then took the pen and paper and began to write:
May 14th, 2004
Dear Shigure & Kyo, The groceries are in the gazebo... Good luck with supper. Don't worry about Sohma-kun & I, believe me, we are fine. See you in...
Here is where I stopped her. This was my part to write, and somehow, she seemed to understand. I took the pen and paper and finished her note...
See you in five days...
We both signed our names at the bottom, and hoped they wouldn't come after us. Tohru snatched the note and crept up the deck, slipping it through the door. She later told me that she had caught Shigure's eye... they shared a knowing smile, and she ran back to me.
Now that that was over with, we tiptoed toward my car, a silver BMW that had, ironically, been bought for me for my 18th birthday, by Akito. I had been quite surprised at his kindness; although I'm sure he had something up his sleeve at the time. All the same, I was glad to have such a beautiful car, especially now.
Still holding hands, the two of us drove for a long time, a knowing silence between us. Words were useless to us, actions were our words. Somehow, we both just knew. Switching gears together, because our hands refused to come apart, we enjoyed each others company. The magic behind it all was so uncomprehendingly strong, neither of us, I'm sure, would ever dare attempt to question it.
Drove down on where the beaches are,
I looked at her, that golden soul with the face of an angel, especially now; with her ebony hair flowing gently in the breeze, deep eyes slightly narrowed, and smiled, once again. I swear, never in my life had I ever been able to smile like I could around her. Nor had I ever smiled so many times in so few a 'hour. We had arrived, for our five days... in May. The Sohma Beach house awaited us. My angel smiled back at me, catching my lips in a deep kiss. It lasted a long time, but not long enough... her kiss was never long enough. It could last an eternity and never be enough. At last our kiss broke, and we got out of the car together, still, somehow, managing to keep grasp of each other's hands. We ran together again, down from the parking area towards the beach...occasionally catching each others gaze and smirking again. I wouldn't call it strange, more... amazing... how we both managed to read each other's mind enough to know just exactly what the other was thinking, and what would be done next. Again, I blame the magic in the air that day.
A/N: Well, there you go. Chapter Two complete and ready for a continuation in Chapter Three. Thanks again to all of those who have Read and Reviewed, it really means a lot to me, more than you think I really hope you all have liked it so far, let me know what you think! Chapter Three will be written soon, the more reviews, the faster! Thanks!
(Sorry this chapter is a bit shorter than the last one, I'll have another one up soon, promise!)
What Remains Of the Song NOW:
He wrote her name in the sand
Never even let go of her hand
Somehow they stayed that way
for those five days in may
made all the stars around them shine
funny how you can look in vain
living on nerves and such sweet pain
loneliness that cuts so fine
find the face you've seen a thousand times
sometimes the world begins
to set you up on your feet again
and oh, it wipes the tears from your eyes
How will you ever know
the way that circumstances go
always gonna hit you by surprise
But i know my past
and you were there
in everything I've done
you are the one.........
Looking back it's hard to tell
Why the stood while others fell
spend your life working it out
all I know is one cloudy day
they both just ran away
rain on the windshield headed sound
oh she loved the lines around his mouth
sometimes the world begins
to set you up on your feet again
and oh, it wipes the tears from your eyes
How will you ever know
the way that circumstances go
always gonna hit you by surprise
But I know my past
and you were there
in everything I've done
you are the one.........
Looking back it's hard to tell
Why the stood while others fell
spend your life working it out
all I know is one cloudy day

to set you up on your feet again
and oh, it wipes the tears from your eyes
