Chapter 6: Falling In Love

Yuki and Kyo arrived back at the house with Sakura. Ame ran and hugged her sister.

"Where did you go! Do you know how long you were gone?"

Sakura merely smiled. "Yes I know how long I was gone and I went to the park. I just forgot to tell anyone."

Ame sighed. "Don't go anywhere without telling us again got it?" She smiled.

Tohru smiled. "I'm glad to see you're safe Sakura."

Sakura smiled. "Thanks." She looked over at Kagura who was hugging Kyo.

"Why did you leave me Kyo!" She wailed as she hugged him tightly.

"Let go of me will ya!" He yelled. He pushed her off and then climbed up the ladder to the roof.

Tohru smiled. "Well, I suppose I should go get dinner started."

"I'll help you." Yuki offered. Tohru smiled and nodded. Together they walked into the kitchen.

Ame began to walk back inside. "I'm gonna go check to see where Shigure is and to tell him to call the police." She smiled before she disappeared into the house.

Sakura and Kagura were left standing alone outside. Sakura avoided Kagura's gaze.

Kagura looked at Sakura. "Are you hiding something?"

Sakura glanced over at Kagura. "No, why do you ask?"

She shrugged. "You just seem like something happened." She smiled weakly. "I might as well head get going. I have to be back at the main house before dinner. Good-bye." She then looked at the roof. "Good-bye Kyo!"

Kyo merely growled.

Kagura smiled and then began to take off towards the main house, leaving Sakura standing alone.

She glanced at the ladder. 'Should I go talk to him?' She shrugged her shoulders. 'What could it hurt?' She began to climb the ladder and found Kyo lying on the roof. He was staring up at the clouds. Sakura slowly walked over to him.

"Hey there. Mind if I join you?" She asked as she was still walking.

Kyo sat up his one knee down while his other knee was up. His arm was resting on his kneecap. He shrugged. "Sure, why not."

She smiled and just before she reached him, she slipped on a loose shingle. She fell on her stomach and began to slide towards the end of the roof. Kyo quickly grabbed her arm and pulled her up to him.

"You alright?" He asked.

Sakura felt her heart racing with fear. She looked at Kyo and nodded. "I'll be fine...Just as soon as I get down from here." She laughed weakly.

He sighed. "You gotta be more careful." He helped her sit down beside him. "Otherwise, you might fall off the roof whenever I'm not around." He grinned.

She smiled at him. "I'll try." She looked at the clouds. "Why do you come up here so often?" She looked over at him.

"Just to think." He stated. He looked over at her and their eyes locked for what felt like an hour but it was only ten seconds. Kyo quickly looked away blushing.

Sakura smiled at him. "Kyo, about your question at the park. The truth is-" She was cut off as she felt Kyo's lips meet hers in a brief kiss. She blushed madly.

Kyo pulled away and then stood up. "I'm sorry..." He then jumped off the roof and ran into the house.

Sakura sat up on the roof and touched her lips. 'Did Kyo just kiss me or was I dreaming...' She slowly mad her way over to the ladder and then climbed down it. She walked inside to see Ame talking to Shigure. "Hey." She smiled.

Ame glanced over her shoulder to see Sakura. "Dinner's just about ready. Why did Kyo run in here?"

Sakura shrugged. "I don't know." She lied. "I'm gonna go wash up before dinner." She smiled and then began to walk to Tohru's room. When she past Kyo's door, she stopped. ((A/N: I just now remembered that Kyo doesn't have a room in the book. Oh well, he does in my story.)) She walked over to his door and knocked lightly. "Kyo-kun?"

Kyo heard Sakura's voice. "What?"

"Dinner's almost ready." She bit her lip.

"I'm not hungry..." He stated dully.

"Kyo, after dinner, can I talk to you?"

Kyo sighed. He looked at the floor. "Sure..."

Sakura smiled. "Alright. I'll see you in about fifteen, twenty minutes ok?"

"Fine..."

She walked into Tohru's room and changed for dinner. She then walked into the shower room and washed her hands.

"Dinner's ready!" Tohru called from the kitchen.

Sakura finished up and walked into the dining area to see them all sitting with the exception of Kyo.

"Hey, where is that cat anyways?" Yuki asked, noticing his absence.

"He said he wasn't hungry." Sakura shrugged.

Tohru sighed. "He's been acting strange lately."

Yuki nodded. "I agree. He seems distracted. He hasn't even tried to start a fight with me yet."

Shigure smiled. "Isn't that a good thing though? I mean, it's a lot more peaceful without you two fighting."

Yuki shot a glare at Shigure. "No one asked you."

"What?" He gave an angel look. "I didn't say anything."

"Baka..." Yuki mumbled.

Ame smiled. "This food is delicious!"

Tohru smiled. "Thank you Ame-chan. Yuki helped too."

Yuki smiled at Tohru.

Sakura stayed quiet during dinner. Afterwards, she stood up. "If you'll excuse me, I have to go study..." She sighed as though she really was going to study. She cleaned her dishes and then began to walk towards Tohru's room. Instead, she walked up to Kyo's door. She looked around and then knocked. "Kyo?"

Kyo got up from his bed and opened the door. He stepped aside and let Sakura enter. He then shut the door after her. "What did you want to talk to me about now?"

"Kyo, what I was trying to say was that I do like you." She smiled gently at him.

He looked shocked. 'Did she just say that she liked me!' He blushed lightly. "Well, I like you too..."

"Not like just liking you but umm...Kyo what I'm trying to say is ahh, umm..." She bit her lip.

He raised an eyebrow.

"Well, I love you..." She whispered.

Kyo's mouth felt like it hit the floor. "Are you serious!"

Sakura nodded. "I know you only like me but if you don't feel the same-"

"I do feel the same though." He interrupted.

She looked into his eyes. "You do?"

Kyo nodded. "Yes I do."

Sakura smiled and then lunged herself forward to hug him. She soon found a cat sitting the floor. "Oh, I totally forgot! I'm so sorry Kyo!" She blushed madly and turned around to wait for him to change back.

It took ten minutes before he changed back. He grabbed his clothes and put them back on. He then grinned at her. "It's alright."

She turned back around and smiled at him. "Are you going to tell Kagura about this?"

"If I tell Kagura, she'll murder me." He grinned. "But she'll find out sooner or later."

Sakura nodded. "Yeah, hopefully then she won't kill either of us." She looked over at him. "So, does this mean we're dating?"

Kyo shrugged his shoulders. "I guess." He smiled and then sat down on his bed.

She took a seat beside him and then looked around his room.

He was thinking about how this was going to work. 'Damn, if only I didn't have this stupid curse, it would be a lot easier...' He sighed and then looked at Sakura. He couldn't help but stare at her. 'Oh god...I just realized that if people at school found out, there would be a lot of commotion.' "Hey Sakura."

She looked over at Kyo. "Yes?"

"You do realize that since we're dating, if someone finds out, it'll be all over the school. Plus, we'll have the press to deal with as well."

Sakura smiled. "I know that but I don't care." She hugged his arm. "I could care less. The press can print out what they want and everyone at our school can think what they want. What matters is that you have me and I have you."

Kyo smiled and then kissed her cheek. "Yeah, you're right about that."

She smiled and then stood up. "Well, I don't want anyone to think we're doing anything if someone should walk in so I'm gonna leave."

Kyo stood up. "Alright. I'll probably see you later tonight."

She nodded. "Cya later Kyo." She smiled and then opened his door. She closed it after she was out and began to walk down the hallway whenever she bumped into someone. She fell backwards and landed on her back sorta. She looked up to see an ominous looking man standing in front of her. His hair was jet black and his eyes felt so cold. She slowly stood and bowed. "I'm sorry sir."

The man smiled. "You must be Sakura."

Sakura looked up at the man and nodded. "Yes. Who might you be?"

"Why, I'm Akito. Head of the Sohma household." He grinned.

End Chapter.

((A/N: I had to end it like that! It was too irresistible. Well, keep those reviews coming. I'm hoping to try to finish up my Inuyasha story but I'm having writers block. If you read that and have any ideas for it, let me know. Until next time, cya! Luna26 meow))
