Hello, I just wanted to say in advance I'm sorry for how short this chapter is...I have been really busy lately and I share my comp with two other people who use it like there's no tomorrow! And sorry that there's harldy any Yuki any it! There will be next chapter!!

Something else, I went to see the Exorcist this weekend and I highly reccomend it to horror movie lovers! Not as good as the original film but close! Anyway, on with the chappie!

'Uhh...do I want to get up or should I just fake dead...' Kyo wondered as he lay face down in the dirt, awaiting Kagura's next blow. "Kyo, how could you do this to me?! You know I love you more then anything!" the pig roared in sobs as she grabbed the cat's hair and forced him back on his feet.

"Look, did it ever occur to you that I DON'T love you? Get a grip woman!" he yelled, readying himself for the next attack, but it never came. Instead, there were a frenzy of rumbling sounds and then silence. Deciding to chance the loss of an eye, Kyo uncovered his face to look around. The only person he could see was Tohru.....no...make that the damn rat and Tohru.

"Kyo-kun, you're hurt! Here, we need to get home! I'll try to help you!" the onigiri gasped, observing the bruised body, slightly bleeding head, and one VERY black eye of the boy. "Eh, it could have been worse..." Kyo muttered in one last attempt to look as masculine as he could in front of his rival. To his surprise, Yuki didn't retort anything negative in his direction; he only walked on in a dazed march towards the house.

"Oi, Tohru....what's wrong with him?" the neko whispered once he was sure they were out of earshot. Yuki hadn't even noticed how far ahead of them he was probably and it seemed he didn't care either, much to Kyo's relief. He didn't feel like dealing with his seemingly estranged cousin at the moment.

Tohru, on the other hand, seemed less then normal herself, with her glazed over eyes and more then usually timid ness. "Oi, Tohru....what's wrong? Did something happen? Look, if that damn rat did anything I'll just kick his ass for you, you know..." he tried to comfort, although he hadn't the faintest idea WHAT he was trying to comfort about.

"Nothing, I'm fine Kyo-kun! I guess Sohma-kun just had a long day!" Tohru finally replied with her big bright smile present to throw any suspicion off guard. The boy eyed her skeptically, but didn't ask anything else. If she didn't want to tell him it was her business.

"Ah, another glorious home cooked meal from my beautiful little flower!" Shigure exclaimed, taking one of his traditional after-meal stretches and leaning back on a free arm, picking his glass up with his other. "Oh and since I know that Mr. Idiot Cat doesn't remember I'll go ahead and announce it to the whole family......Kyo-kun, are you listening?"

Kyo looked up from his food with a glare but did not look down so the inu continued, "Coming up pretty soon is White day, and since Tohru was kind enough to get us treats again this year, I think we will go on a trip to the mountains.........if it's ok with you my dear...." Tohru's face went pale and dread slowly crept across it. "I couldn't! That would be too much!! It was just a few silly chocolates.....oh...and a few fire balls for Kyo-kun......but that's nothing special enough for a trip!"

From under the huge jaw full of food Kyo smirked. It was true, she had remembered to get him something other then chocolate.....even though he secretly thought chocolate was kind of good; he would never admit it though.

Shigure seemed mildly hurt by the intense refusal from the little onigiri, much to both of the boys' irritation. "Well, ok....but how I would have loved to go with you.....it's been so long after all and it would be nice to get away from the stress!" he continued on as if everyone cared.

'Will he shut up?!'

'Ah, no matter what, it's always good to be alone some ti.....' "Kyo-kun, are you up here?" Tohru called the lone neko from the ground below. Kyo sighed but smiled ever so slightly. At least she wanted to be around him.... "Yea, come on up if you want...."

Not too long and a few helping hands later, Tohru was on the roof, comfortably sitting beside him with a majestic look on her face....at least he thought so. "Is there something you wanted to say?" Kyo finally asked, growing uneasy in the silence. "No...we just haven't spent much time together....I guess..." she answered in a faint blush.

Sensing a bit of responsibility to do something, Kyo grasped her hand firmly and sat there in silence with her once again. "So....if we really don't go.....you know, to the mountains or whatever...........you wanna go on a date?" Relief seemed to sweep the girl's being, although she didn't know why. It was, after all, very selfish to ask such a thing normally.

"I would love to Kyo-kun! I'll pay so don't worry!" she squealed in pure joy, but Kyo quickly shot that thought down in an instant. "Hell no! It's my day to do something for you, crazy!" With that the all familiar silence came on again, only the silence was nice.

Taking the time, Tohru sat down in front of him and laid her head on his lap, allowing them to gaze at each other from when the nerve stuck. Kyo gently ran his fingers through her soft hair and played with her bangs, brushing them out of her face for a better view of her gorgeous eyes. He whispered things inaudibly and leaned down to steal a kiss.

"Well, good night then Kyo-kun..." the onigiri gasped afterwards and stood up, blushing.

Kyo sat alone once again in his much loved silence, only....it wasn't a great as a few moments before, which brought his mind back onto her....He flinched, feeling things happening to him against his will. 'God....now what am I going to do.....' he moaned in irritation and got up to go down to his own room.

'Hmmmm......I hope I didn't offend Kyo-kun by running off too quickly....' Tohru wondered as she made the final preparations for bed and changed into her pajamas. 'Maybe I should go apologize......' With the new decision she courageously stepped out the door, heading for Kyo's room.

Haha, I was just beginning to write this chapter when I realized something....I have two friends at school who are just like Kyo and Yuki!

Cory Taylor (just like the name of the metal singer from Slipknot...way awesome!) is just like Yuki. He is hott and loved by the ladies, soft spoken, and gets along with girls well....at least he gets along with me well....I hope...I hope he isn't just trying to be nice so he doesn't offend me....Oh it's one of those Yuki questions! Arg!!! and pretty well mannered.....

And Jonathan is soooo Kyo! He says a lot of mean stuff but I know he doesn't mean it because he has those mildly friendly and I may even venture into calling it sweet moments. He also apologizes if he thinks he offended me. Hahaha. The only difference between them and the anime is they are friends.

Ok....enough stupid crap from me! Please Review!!!

Another thing....any ideas for later chapters would be highly appreciated!
