Chapter 7: The Cave

He kept on leaning in, Tohru couldn't feel her legs anymore, her knees were shaking and her lips were trembling. She was sweating a lot and couldn't get a word out of her mouth. Kyo had successfully placed his lips upon Tohru's. Tohru was still clueless of what was going on, but she enjoyed the warmth of Kyo's lips on her own.

"Kyo, stop."

Kyo pushed himself away from Tohru, he was disappointed he didn't know why Tohru stopped him, and maybe she thought he was a bad kisser or something.

"What's wrong Tohru?"

"Nothing is wrong it's just…"

"Just what?"

"Well I have never been kissed before and I know that having my first kiss with you would be great but I don't think I'm ready to have a relationship with anyone."

"What do you mean? Don't you want to be with me?" Kyo turned his head slightly embarrassed.

"No, it's not that at all, it's just what if Yuki found out?"

"Why do you care if that stupid rat finds out?"

"Well I thought you told me he liked me as well."

"Yeah."

"Well I just don't want them to find out that we have kissed and want to be together when or if they find us. I don't think Yuki will want to see us happy together when we were stranded on an island together, and plus if we enjoy it."

"So what you just want to try and have the worst time of our life so Yuki will feel better that we didn't enjoy our time together?"

"Well that's a strange way to put it but yes I think that is what I'm trying to say."

"Why do you care about that stupid rat so much anyway?"

"I love Yuki as a friend and I don't want to hurt him if that means breaking his heart."

"But if Yuki was here instead of me would, would you act different?"

"In what way?"

"Would you let him get close to you, or would you tell him that you wouldn't want to hurt me?"

"I would say the same thing to Yuki as I have told you, but remember Kyo I love you as more than just a friend so it would be very different in that case."

Kyo felt a chill down his back; Tohru's words meant so much to him. She loved him, not Yuki, him. He just wished that he could be nicer to her, but sometimes his anger towards Yuki gets the best of him.

"Damn it's freezing, and plus we only have leaves to keep us warm."

"Your right Kyo maybe we should try and find some shelter, and maybe some wood for a fire."

"Alright, agh would you like to um find the shelter so you can fix up your clothes a bit more and I will look for fire wood?"

"Oh right, thank you Kyo."

They stared at each other for another couple of minutes before Kyo couldn't handle the silence.

"Ok so I will go then."

"Yes ok, I should start to."

They both still stood there, Tohru didn't exactly want to turn around because there was nothing covering her from behind and Kyo had a similar problem.

"Um Kyo, I feel silly for asking but do you want me to close my eyes while you start searching so I don't have to see your…."

"OK STOP, fine just hurry up already."

"Oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to be slow." Tohru was so flustered about Kyo yelling at her she forgot the whole reason why she hadn't left. With a quick turn Tohru's backside was now facing Kyo although now Tohru had her eyes shut.

"TOHRU WHAT THE HELL?"

"What's wrong Kyo?" Tohru turned back around figuring out what she had done noticing Kyo's finger pointing at her and is face was now red.

"I'm sorry Kyo I forgot I just got scared when you yelled at me, my first response was to turn around and close my eyes."

"That's ok but we should really get started before it gets too dark."

So with that both Kyo and Tohru turned around at exactly the same time and headed toward what they were trying to find.

LATER THAT NIGHT

Tohru was walking up a steep hill a couple of rocks falling down the hill every time she took a step.

"Ow, my feet are getting sore," she lifted up her feet and noticed a few trickles of blood from the rocks cutting her feet. She touched one of the small cuts; she pulled back her finger from the sudden sting she felt.

"How am I supposed to find shelter for Kyo and me when I can't even walk?" By this time already, Tohru had fixed up her outfit and now it looked like a costume you would wear to the beach. She had ripped her leaf in half and got a couple of vines; she folded the leaf and put a hole through the top for her head. She slipped it on and so now it looked like a bib. She then got the two vines and joined the back and the front together so it would stay down as a top. He skirt looked similar but on her waist.

When Kyo had emerged from the bush. With his hands piled up with fire wood.

"Tohru, what are you doing here?"

"I was resting I have been walking up this hill for a long time trying to find shelter."

"Don't worry Tohru I found a place when I was looking for fire wood."

"Really Kyo, where?"

"It's just around here, follow me." He picked the firewood back up and started walking through the bush.

"Wow Kyo, this place is just perfect."

"It's not that great, it's just a small cave."

"Yes but that's all we need right?"

"I guess so, where would you like to sleep I know there isn't much of a choice but I thought you might want to pick out a warm spot to stay."

"Thank you Kyo, um maybe I will just sleep over on the opposite side of the wall."

"Ok and I got some leaves that you might want to use as blankets or something if you want I mean."

"That's a great idea Kyo," he handed her 5 big leaves for her to lay on and another bunch to put on top.

"I'm going to try and start a fire," Tohru looked up at him wide eyed.

"How are you going to start a fire?"

"Just watch," Kyo knelt down in the middle of the room where he placed the firewood and started giving Tohru a full explanation of how to start a fire. She sat through the whole demonstration amazed at what Kyo could do that know one else knew he could.

"Kyo where did you learn how to do all this?"

"My master taught me, up there in the mountains I needed to learn how to cook and I needed to learn how to start my own fire."

"It's amazing what you can do Kyo I don't know why you hide it."

"It's not that great, you can even have a try later on."

"Really Kyo that would be great getting lessons from you," Kyo blushed and Tohru just kept smiling. He looked down, too embarrassed to look her in the eyes when he noticed her feet, soon his blush wasn't from embarrassment but for rage.

"TOHRU WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?"

"What are you talking about Kyo?"

"YOUR FEET DAMN IT!"

"Kyo it's nothing. It will be fine in the morning really just a couple of scratches."

"Just a couple of scratches your feet are bleeding and bruised it's not just going to be fine in the morning."

"Please Kyo don't worry about me it will be fine."

"No it won't!"

"Kyo, we can't do much anyway."

Kyo looked at Tohru and realized she was right they couldn't do much until a doctor came but Kyo got sore feet all the time when he was up in the mountains so he knew what would help Tohru's feet, well at least ease the pain a bit more. He got up and stormed out of the cave.

"Kyo?" Tohru called out after him as he left but soon after he came back with a bucket in his hands.

"Um, where did you get that bucket Kyo?"

"I found it when I was looking for fish in the water it must have floated away from a little kid in the beach we came from or something."

"Oh ok so why do you have it anyway?"

"Well I though maybe I could help ease the pain from your feet."

"No please Kyo I don't want to be any trouble."

"You're never any trouble Tohru," He looked into her eyes with a small smile on his face, she was hypnotized from his eyes and his smile when she felt warm water on her feet.

"Don't worry its just warm water I heated on the fire I got it from the sea, I hope you don't mind but I don't have any cloths or material so I have to wash your feet with my hands."

"No I don't mind at all you really don't have to wash my feet Kyo."

"Well if I wash them with warm water at least then you wont have any blood on your feet and they will feel better."

She just smiled at him while he dipped his hands into the warm water and smothered her feet with the liquid. He moved his hands up and down massaging her feet while cleaning them at the same time.

"Oh Kyo that feels so nice would you like me to do your feet after mine?"

"No, its ok your feet are the ones that need to be tended to and anyway it's too dark to go back for more water."

"Tomorrow night then."

"Only if we are still here tomorrow night."

"Then it's a deal, I will clean your feet tomorrow night if we are still stuck on this island."

Kyo just laughed at her satisfaction of how she handled the deal they just made although it's not much of a deal.

"Thank you so much for cleaning my feet Kyo you should become a massager one day that felt so nice."

"It's nothing."

"No really Kyo that was great." Tohru was blinking an awful lot, she was very tired. Today's adventure ended pleasantly, she was glad that she was stranded on an island with Kyo not that she was happy that they were stranded but she was glad that Kyo was with her.
