-yellowcard "View from Heaven"

Kyo

Kyo didn't notice Haru and Momiji staring at him with wide eyes. He was to busy trying not to pass-out from laughing so hard. Dallithia stood uncertainly, looking at the insane picture the family made.

Suddenly, Kyo stopped laughing and turned on Dally, his cheeks a nice cherry color. "What are you doing here?" he yelled, flustered by her presence. Why did she always make him feel so self-conscious? And why the Hell did she have to see him loose control like that. The confused look on Dallithia's face vanished, replaced by a cool, aloof expression.

"It's not like I wanted to be hear in the first place" she snapped, her voice icy-cold.

"Ya then why the Hell are ya here?"

"When put like that there is only one answer to that question," She twirled on her heel and sauntered out of the door. Kyo gaped after her, the first feelings of shame building up inside.

"Kyo whadya do that for?" Momiji whined. Kyo took a deep breath, trying to calm his temper.

"I don't know." He said through gritted teeth. Momiji blinked and Haru raised his eyebrows.

Shigure made a sound in-between a squeal and a train whistle. "I think Kyo has a crush on someone!" he sang, clapping his hands together.

"I do not!" He yelled, before running out of the room. As he turned the corner he heard Momiji ask, "Who does Kyo have a crush on?"

Kyo swung himself up onto the roof in on cat-like motion, then stopped. Did he hear someone crying? He crept closer and peered over the sharp incline of the roof. Dallithia was lying on her side; her head buried face-down in her arms. She was shaking with carefully muffled sobs. The shame Kyo had felt doubled. Had he made Dally cry? Had his words hurt her that much?

Dallithia sniffed, then started singing in a sweet, sad voice, "And I'm sure the view from Heaven beats the hell out of mine here. And if we all believe in Heaven maybe we'll make it through one more year, down here."

Kyo furrowed his brow. Why was she singing about Heaven? The he remembered: Her Father and Brother had died, so her Mother had sent her to recuperate in Japan, with her mother's family. Before Kyo knew what he was doing, he was sitting next to her, his hand on her shoulder. She tensed and looked up at him. "Are you here to scream at me some more?" she asked bitterly, another tear slipping down her face. Kyo wiped it away, surprising even himself. She closed her eyes and swallowed hard.

"I... I'm sorry I screamed at you." Kyo apologized awkwardly; he was not used to apologizing!

She smiled sadly. "It's ok. And I'm sorry you saw me like this," she motioned to herself.

For some reason that made Kyo feel even worse. He cleared his throat and asked, "So, what's the story about you coming to Japan?" He knew that it was a painful topic, but Tohru always said it was better to talk about things then just hiding them inside, and Tohru was never wrong. Dallithia bit her lip and squeezed her eyes shut.

"Well, my brother, Jonathan, and my father went to fight the war in Iraq. They had been fighting for just a week when their camp was bombed. More than anything, it was the shock that got to me. My Father had always been a distant figure in my life because of his job. (He was a Military doctor). My brother and I, on the other hand, were very close, and when he decided to go fight I had protested. But, obviously, it did no good. Off he went, so that he could be a hero in his girlfriend's eyes.

"When we heard the news that they had died my mother contacted Akito, and told him everything. He ordered that I come "heal" in Japan, but it was obvious that he just wanted me close, now that he knew my ties to America were virtually gone." She choked up here and fought to gain her composer. "So, now I'm here; hurt and lost." She finished and lost all the control she had regained. She buried her head in her hands, and Kyo awkwardly placed a hand on her shoulder. She shifted and buried her head in his shoulder, throwing her arms around his neck.

He held her close, pushing the question of how she had hugged him without him transforming away, to be pondered over some other time.
