Dinner had been quite the experience. It was a one sided stare down the
whole time. While Yuki calmly ate his miso soup and home-made bread
with a variety with vegetables, Kyo kept an eye out. For what, Tohru
didn't know. Chikara was very well behaved until chit chat began.
It was inevitable. "So what have you been up to Chikara?" Yuki asked pleasantly. "I saw mommy and daddy having sex last night," she said with a huge grin on her face. Tohru blushed and Kyo laid his face in his hands. Yuki was shocked. "Oh...uhh...that's...uhhh"
Tohru stood up from the table. "One moment please," she said with a fake smile on her face, pulling Chikara from the table as well, leaving Kyo and Yuki alone in the room. Once in the next room she let her have it. "Chikara Sohma! That was very rude, and you know it! Now you go apologize right now!"
Back in the dining room, there was an awkward silence for a while. Yuki decided to say something...anything! "Well...it's good that your marriage is doing well even after ten years...." "Yea..." Kyo muffled, head still in his hands. Then more silence.
Chikara and Tohru appeared from the other room. "I'm sorry, Uncle Yuki...that was rude of me..." Chikara said sweetly with her little kitten face. Yuki melted. "Aww, it's ok sweetie...." He said and gave her a slight hug.
Then came the dishes. Yuki decided to help Tohru so that Kyo could have a little talk with his daughter as well. She washed and he dried quietly until a dish slipped and almost hit the floor, but Yuki swiftly saved it from a horrible fate. They both laughed at that.
The laughter turned into conversation. "So you all must be doing well.." Yuki commented, bringing another blush from Tohru. "Yes....it has always been well." She said softly. "I wish you would come visit me more...I would come here but I feel like Kyo doesn't want me here.." "Ehh, Kyo thinks you flirt..." Tohru giggled, "He is very jealous.."
Their hands touched while passing a dish and Yuki got the rush he felt every time he touched her. There was so much he wanted to say...wanted to do but couldn't. "Miss Honda, why did you choose him?" Tohru stopped what she was doing and looked over at him. He had never asked this before.
"Well, uhh....I love him...." She finally said, lacking better description, "I love you too Sohma-kun...but Kyo...." "Sorry I asked," Yuki responded coldly, not giving her time to finish. Not another word was spoken.
When they were finished they all sat down to watch the nightly movie. Not long into it, though, a middle-aged Hatori came to pick Yuki up. After a short farewell between him and the cats, Yuki and Tohru stood out on the porch for a moment.
"I'm sorry about what happened in the kitchen," Yuki apologized. "Please...I understand Sohma-kun, and I want you to know how happy I am to know you and be your friend." Tohru's words were always full of light and the light seemed to fill him.
Without thinking he leaned down towards her and kissed her. Feeling her rigid body, he relented. "Miss Honda....I lov...." "Good night Sohma-kun. I hope you can come visit again soon, send Hatori-san our love," and with that Tohru sped inside to safety.
Yuki was humiliated. He couldn't believe he had just done that, and after he and Kyo were finally starting to get along. Would Kyo even find out? That much was up to Tohru. He didn't know what had even come over him. Well, one thing was for sure, Tohru would always stay true to Kyo, that was proven.
Inside the house, Tohru looked at her family: Kyo and Chikara snuggled up together under his old blanket, then sat down beside them. The rest of the movie played through but Tohru didn't see an instant of it. She kept juggling in her head whether to tell Kyo or not. In the end, she decided not to.
After the movie they did their normal bed-time routine. When finally in bed Kyo rolled over and looked at her suspiciously. "What's wrong?" Tohru just rolled over so she wouldn't have to see him. "I'm just very tired. Good night sweetie."
It was inevitable. "So what have you been up to Chikara?" Yuki asked pleasantly. "I saw mommy and daddy having sex last night," she said with a huge grin on her face. Tohru blushed and Kyo laid his face in his hands. Yuki was shocked. "Oh...uhh...that's...uhhh"
