Flashback
"Do you need help Tohru?" Tohru looked up to see someone, but quickly, he turned his face, and worked the locker combination, and ran off. All Tohru could see, was the back of his baseball cap. "How did he... know my locker combination.....?" Tohru's eyes trailed away from the boy, and saw a bag of chocolates. "Did he put them there.......?"
End Flashback
Tohru was staring blankly at the bag of chocolates within her locker. Meanwhile, Kyo was walking by. He held a hat in his hand. Tohru heard footsteps and turned around, seeing the cursed cat in front of her. "Oh! Hi Kyo!" She took the confused look off her face, and grinned at Kyo.
"Hey." Kyo said back. Tohru looked down in Kyo's hands, and she saw the hat. 'Hey! That's the hat that the boy was wearing.... Is Kyo...' Tohru looked back up at Kyo, with the same confused face. Kyo looked down at the hat, and had a nervous smirk on. "Kyo, where did you get the hat...?" Kyo thought for a second 'Well... The hat is mine, since I was just here... I knew I should have put the hat somewhere...' "Oh... well... the hat... I found it on the floor, with a boy running off. The hat went flying as he ran..." Kyo let out a sigh of relief. 'Good story Kyo! That will surely bring Tohru off guard. I can't tell her the chocolates were from me...' Tohru looked at Kyo for a second, then sighed.
"Ok
Kyo, well, do you know what the person looked like? He gave me a bag
of chocolates. I really would like to thank him, no one needs to give
me anything. And, I surely don't deserve these chocolates. Maybe he
should give them to someone else?" Tohru smiled, while Kyo frowned.
"Geesh, whoever gave you the chocolates obviously like
you!" Tohru looked at Kyo and blushed. "Like me? Why would anyone
like me?" Kyo playfully slapped Tohru's head
lightly, "A lot of people like you y'know. Maybe you just don't
realize it because so many people care for you anyways... And I... "
Kyo stopped. 'What the hell am I saying right now...?' "I
mean... well... and... you care so much about them back." Kyo
smiled.
'Wow... I haven't really seen Kyo's smile... But, when I do, it makes me feel happy. I think I accomplished something else mom...' Tohru smiled back, "Whatever you say Kyo. We should go to class now."
Together they left to go to class. Yuki on the other hand, was watching the two talk together the whole time. "It was Kyo. Miss Honda, Kyo left you those chocolates." Yuki walked away, holding the bag of chocolates he was going to give Tohru himself. "I guess I will give them to her at home later..." And slowly, he walked to class alone.
Once they got to class, Tohru gave Uo and Hana the chocolates. "Awww, Tohru, I still owe you from last year!" Uo smiled as she thanked Tohru. "Why thank you Tohru, what would you like in return?" Tohru stepped back shaking her hands. "I don't want anything at all, those are for being such great friends to me." Tohru smiled.
Kyo was sitting at his desk, doodling in his notebook. Then, a girl came up. "Here you go Kyo-Kyo." Kyo looked up, seeing a girl with chocolates. His mind went blank. "Wait... since today's Valentines Day then that means...." He stood up. "I'm going home. Wait, home isn't safe either." The Yuki, Tohru, and the girl looked at him. "I know! I'll take a journey!" And right then, Kyo ran off.
Once he got outside, he stopped. "Oh no..." He whispered. Ahead of him, he saw Kagura. Slowly she turned to him, and slowly Kyo stepped back, and then Kagura began chasing Kyo.
Yuki and Tohru stood next to each other by the window. "For some reason, I don't think Kyo is happy to see Kagura." Tohru had a nervous smile as she spoke. "He's not." Yuki just said plain out and straight.
At the house...
Shigure, Yuki, Kyo, and Kagura were all gathered around the table, with their legs underneath the blanket.
"So Kagura, what brings you here?" Shigure smiled. Kyo was facing his back towards Kagura. While Yuki was just sitting there. "Well, today's Valentines Day! A day for all lovers to come together!" Kyo muttered.
"You aren't going to find any lover here." Shigure sighed. "Kyo, be nice. I don't want the house to be... you know... ruined." "Ehhhh...."
"So, did you give him any chocolates?" Kagura sighed. She said in a sad tone, "Yeah, but he won't take it from me." Kagura brought out a giant chocolate heart in a plastic box. "A chocolate heart, stuffed full of my love! All for you Kyo!" Kyo sighed.
"I
don't want it!" Kyo replied. Kagura brought out the bad side of
herself, "Shut up and just eat it." "No!!!" Tohru was
standing by the door. "I said eat it!" "No!!" "EAT!" "I
said no and I mean no women!" Kagura was on top of Kyo now, while
he was stuck on the floor. "I don't eat that sugary crap
y'know..."
Tohru frowned. "Oh, does that mean you don't
like chocolate?" Kyo spat out, "No, I hate chocolate."
Shigure looked over to Tohru, "Tohru, does that happen to be a bag of chocolate behind you?" Yuki instantly looked up over at Tohru. Kyo on the other hand, he was sighing, with his usual angry face. "Yeah it is! I just wanted to give everyone a little something. So, I got chocolate!" Tohru was smiling, then she looked over to Kyo, and she frowned. "But, I guess I should have asked everyone if they liked chocolate." She punched her head slightly. "Silly silly me." Kyo began growling.
"I'd like to have one Miss Honda." Yuki smiled. "Really?" Tohru walked over and gave Yuki one. "And one for you Shigure." "Aw for me? You know Tohru, you really are something." Tohru smiled. "And one for you too Kagura!" Kagura jumped up, there were sparkles forming in her eyes. "For me?" Kagura leaped over to Tohru and hugged her, "Thank you so much!""And I have one for Haru, Momiji, Hatori..." Tohru left out Akito, she didn't want to worry everyone. "Wow, when you say everyone, you mean everyone." Yuki smiled. "Well... I still should have asked everyone if they liked chocolate..." Her energetic voice depleted. "I should have gotten something more masculine sounding." Shigure shook his head.
"You know, Kyo thinks he's being a man by rejecting chocolates. But really, he's being the opposite." Kyo thought for a second, 'Does that mean I'm a woman...?' "To break a person's heart. It really doesn't go along the lines of being a man, no, a human being!" Tohru stepped back. Oh um... It's ok... really!"
Kyo
stood up. "So, do I just have to eat it? FINE! I'll eat it!"
And just like that, Kyo grabbed Kagura's chocolate heart, and began
munching away like a maniac. Kagura was jumping up and down again,
"Yay!" Once Kyo had stuffed most of it in his mouth, chocolate
was all around his face.
Tohru's eyes grew wide. "Uh...
Kyo, are you ok?" Kyo was still chewing. And then he let out a hand
to his side, telling Tohru he wanted her chocolate. Tohru smiled, and
handed the chocolate over to Kyo.
Afterwards, Kagura left, telling Kyo how much she was glad how Yuki and Kyo were started to get along. "I'd be very happy, if that would come true.... bye bye." And like that, Kagura left with Shigure to go to the main house.
Tohru looked around as she slowly stepped outside. Then, she remembered how she hadn't told anyone she was going anywhere. So, she said, "Yuki, Kyo, I am going to go over Hana's right now, I haven't been to her house in so long!" Yuki came downstairs, "Do you want me to walk with you?" Tohru gave an uncertain smile, 'That can't happen, I am trying to go talk to Akito right now...' Kyo walked down from his room and looked at Tohru, "So, you're leaving now?" Tohru nodded. "I will try to come back soon to make dinner!" Yuki smiled, "Take your time Miss Honda."
Kyo sighed and went up to the roof, while Yuki stayed by the door watching Tohru walk off, 'Miss Honda, where are you really going...?'
Tohru turned around and went towards the route to the Main House, which luckily happened to be the route to Hana's as well. Kyo sat up on the roof, watching Tohru go. "Please come back.... Toh-"
"You stupid cat, do you always have to mope on the roof like that?" (Darn, Yuki had to ruin the moment where Kyo was going to say Tohru's name.) Yuki was talking to Kyo from the porch.
"Aghh... It's none of your business you damn rat!" Kyo spat out quickly. And then they were arguing again. Cat and mouse... sheesh the resemblance!
Meanwhile...
-knock knock- The door slid slightly. "Hari! Look at this! They're chocolates from me!" Shigure was sing talking. Then, Hatori slammed the door and turned his back towards it. Shigure had tears coming down his face, and slowly opened the door again. "Ahh... Don't hate me, they're from Tohru!" Kagura in the background was sing talking as well, "We brought chocolates!"
Hatori was just shaking his head. 'Idiot.'
Akito sat down in his room, by the open doors to the courtyard. "Valentines Day, what a stupid 'holiday'. No one loves me anyways, so Valentines Day should just-"knock knock "Who is it now?!" Tohru was outside the door, she was slightly surprised by Akito's tone of voice. She took a breath. 'Mom, was I meant to do this? Should I do this? What will happen to me? I mean, the whole Sohma family seems so scared by him...' "It's... It's Tohru Honda..." Tohru held the bag of chocolates behind her, cradled in the palm of her hands.
Akito looked up, surprised. "Tohru? Tohru Honda? What brings you here today?" He spoke slowly, in that chilling tone of voice. He got up, walked step by step, and towards the door to open it. As he opened the door, he saw a girl with long brown hair. She had eyes that light up any room. Once Tohru saw Akito, she quickly bowed down to him. "I um, I came to give you some chocolate." Akito's eyes grew wide, not because he was angry, but he was surprised.
"You came... to give me... chocolates?" He smiled, but happiness was not the only thing within his smile, so what else was it? "... Maybe you should come in, Miss Toh-ru Hon-da." Tohru put a nervous smile on her face.
'I don't want to be rude, so I guess I could stay a little while longer....' Tohru walked into Akito's room, and Akito slowly shut the door. The two of them were alone in a room together...
Da-Chan
here!
That is the end of chapter 3. How do you like it?
DetroitRockCity: I am so glad you like the ficc-ay! It makes me feel so good, even though I've only gotten two reviews, it is nice to know people like my story.
Ahh, it took me forever just trying to write this chapter.
Although, it is hard to go update this story, because my dad doesn't want me to have internet on my computer anymore... long story. So a majority of the time I update on his computer, so please be patient. (For some reason, he put the internet in my computer again, I am taking advantage of it!)
So, I will work on the 4th chapter later.
What
will happen to Tohru alone with Akito?
Tune in next time!
