Hi everyone! Thank you so much for the reviews! I was really touched. I thought no one reviewed since I didn't get notified by email. Well here's the next chapter of "A love unspoken." It's mostly going to be based on the manga. Hope you guys enjoy.

Tohru woke up early in the morning so she could get breakfast started. She grabbed a change of clothes and headed to the bathroom so she could take a shower. She changed out of her clothes and sighed contentedly as the warm water touched her skin. When she was done, she wrapped a towel around her. She rummaged through the clothes she had brought. *Hmm. I'd rather wear my pink sunflower dress. Maybe I can sneak back in my room for it.* She reached out to open the door, but it was already opening.

"Eh?!" she uttered as she came face to face with Kyou. They both stood there staring at each other for about 5 seconds before reacting. "Ah! Kyou-kun!" she squeaked. Their eyes widened, and their faces turned beet red. They were both at a loss for words. Kyou scratched his head, and tried to direct his eyes somewhere other than Tohru's scantily "clothed" body. Tohru's grip tightened on her towel, and she tried to think of something to say to break the akwardness.

"I'm sorry, Tohru. I didn't know you were in here. Honest! It's just that........I'm usually in the shower before you and-...........d***!"

"N-no, Kyou-kun! It's not your fault. I should've told you I was going in the shower first."

"Look, just hurry up and get dressed okay?"

"Um, yes! Okay!" Tohru changed into the clothes she'd brought, and put her pajamas in her room. She went up to Kyou and said,"I'm done with the bathroom Kyou-kun. You can go in now if you want. I'll go get breakfast started." She headed for the stairs, and Kyou watched her until she was out of sight. He closed the door and leaned his head against it. He sighed loudly, and went to splash water on his burning face.

Tohru was glad no one else was awake. She couldn't stop blushing. *Mother, what's the matter with me? The same feeling as yesterday, I feel it again today. I feel as if something has changed between Kyou and I. What should I do? Maybe it's all in my head. I'm just imagining things.* "Honda- san?"

"Eh? Oh, Sohma-kun! Good morning."

"Honda-san, are you okay?" Tohru began to laugh nervously, and wave her hands wildly. "Ha ha! I'm fine Souma-kun. Don't worry about anything." Yuki still wasn't convinced. She had been acting strange ever since last night when she and Kyou came back from the roof. He noticed her gaze shift from him to something behind him. He turned and saw that Kyou had just come down stairs. Time seemed to freeze as Yuki stared back and forth between Tohru and Kyou. "G-Good morning Kyou-kun," Tohru said shyly. For some reason, she found it hard to meet his eyes.

"Um, good morning Tohru." The silence seemed to last forever till Shigure came downstairs.

"Good morning everyone. I trust everyone had a good nights rest? I.......Eh? Did I interrupt something?"

"Um, no! Everything's fine. I was just about to serve breakfast. Please everyone sit." She served everything into bowls and brought it to the table. Tohru saw Shigure and Yuki, but Kyou wasn't at the table. "Where's Kyou-kun?" Shigure looked up from his newspaper.

"Huh? Oh, I think he left." Tohru grabbed a sweater, and ran out after him. "Honda-san!" Yuki called. He was about to follow her, but Shigure grabbed his hand.

"I think you should stay here, Yuki. Your prescense would just complicate things further." Yuki looked like he was about to protest, but he just snatched his hand away and went to his room.

***************************************************

"Kyou-kun! Wait!" Tohru called to his retreating figure. He stopped and turned around. "Kyou-kun don't go. I...." Her words trailed off when Kyou held his cold hand to her cheek. (It's about midway between winter and spring; Like b/w Febuary and March, so it's kinda cold.)

"Don't. You don't have to say anything. I guess this is all my fault. I'm sorry I made things akward for you. And don't worry about me. I'm not hungry. I just want to be by myself for awhile. Maybe I'll get something to eat later. So go back inside, okay?"

He took his hand from her face and continued on his way. ****************************************************

D***, he thought. He knew his feelings would screw things up. He didn't want things to change because it would only be akward for her. All he needed was for Akito to find out............ *******************************************************

It was night when Kyou finally came home. He assumed everyone was asleep, so he quietly went upstairs towards his room. When he opened the door, he saw Tohru was asleep on his bed with her head resting on her arms. A book was lying next to her. "Baka, you didn't have to wait up for me," he whispered. He grabbed a blanket and covered her sleeping form. Then he paused to look at her face. (He's looking at her the same way he did in volume 4 of the manga after her mother's funeral. If you don't know what I'm talking about, then go to geocities and look for vivianchan's fruits basket page. If you're a K/T fan, then you'll love the scans of volume four chapter 24!^_^) He slowly leaned down and, against his better judgement, kissed her lightly on her lips.

"Sometimes a stolen kiss is sweeter," he whispered to himself.

Well, that's it. How did you like it? Let me know what you think. (But no flames!) Till next time!^^
