This chapter kind of leaves off from where I left it last time. Thanks a lot though, to all my fans for sticking through with me. I have to write really fast because I always have "daily routines" I have to do and blah blah blah, so on so forth. I dont like boring people with intros, and thats probably why I never bother reading them. Anyways, I'm glad alot of peps like my fic, and as for those who dont like it... well this is a website FULL of stories, so I'm sure you can find one you can enjoy. Well anyways, children, DIG IN!!!!

Afew short minutes after the confrontation, Shigure went upstairs to pay a visit to Kyou. Kyou never really did come back downstairs for his breakfast... and being that Shigure couldn't stand to see a perfectly good meal go to waste... he gobbled it all down when no one else was looking.

Shigure gave a slight tap on the door, before opening. Suprisingly (yet unsurprisingly) there were traces of anyone who had been there except an open window, with the curtains blowing in the wind. Shigure closed his eyes, sighed, and left the room to dwell in it's own silence.

It always felt good for Kyou to sprint through the tiny forest. It relieved stress and it was good excercise, especially on the weekends. He sped through the moss, leaping from tree to tree. The sun felt wonderful on his skin, and the wind kept him cool. Kyou had a secret love that he shared with nature, but never once thought of expressing it to everyone else. The little boy features he once knew came back to him in an instant, and he found he was laughing and playing by himself without a care of who heard or saw.

He stopped to take a breather, and sat on a rock. Why did he get so pissed off again? Oh yea, thats right. show off Yuki and his little play toy Tohru were too busy touching and feeling all over each other to even notice he existed at the time. Kyou was so angry that he didn't even notice he left the house until he'd found himself hanging off the trunk of a tree.But why? Why did he get so mad? They always do that cuddly stuff. Its nothing new.

From now on, you'll breathe air from a higher place...

Kyou remembered the words of his sensei. They were almost the very first words that were spoken to him since his master had adopted him, so long ago. He hated to admit it, but in a way, Tohru reminded him of his sensei. She was nice and sincere, and wasn't afraid to see through his tuff exterior to see that there was actually a human inside of him... Kyou didn't know why, but he suddenly wanted to be in his masters presence. For his sensei to give him the wise advice he always has.

"Master... If you can hear me... whats wrong with me? Why am I acting like this? How can I overcome these stupid emotions!" He put his arms on his knees and looked down. He felt silly for asking questions to someone who wasn't even around to hear them. A single leaf fell below his feet. It had grabbed his attention and temporarily took his mind off of everything.

"What would Tohru do with a guy like me? I'd only get in her way." He flung the leaf on the ground, before getting up. "She'd be better off with a normal person. Not some cursed neko." Everytime he thought about something like that it saddened him, and he didn't know why. The point is, he didn't like Tohru. He didn't want Tohru, and Tohru clearly didn't want him. It was dumb to just sit here and waste time on a early Saturday daydreaming about some bimbo who's only hobbies were cooking and cleaning.

.He stood up and continued his journey until he reached the small lake. This was the perfect weather for swimming, even if it was a neko's usual hobby. He wasn't far off from the house, but took a gamble and betted on skinny dipping. That way his clothes wouldn't get wet and he could sneak back into his room for a quick 'cat' nap. ( HAHAHA get it? CAT nap?! Hes a cat, and... oh, skip it.)

Soon enough he was butt naked and took a few seconds before diving head first into the water. It was freezing cold, and yet refreshing. It relieved him from any of the stress he was carrying from earlier. He let the water massage carry him beyond this world, in to his calm, sirene state of mind. It was the place no one bother him, or pester him. A place where he could be himself.

"Kyo-Kun (I corrected it! Hope this makes you happy!) has been gone a long time." Tohru stated, after doing all the household chores. She had checked in on him to see if he was feeling well, but noticed that he disappeared. Shigure informed her not to worry, and that Kyou was only out getting some fresh air.

"Not long enough, if you'd ask me." Yuki remarked, but contiued to hold his normal posture. Shigure made no comment, just sat there and listened to the two conversate (for the first time in his entire life).

"Well, I'm sure he couldn't have ran off far. He more upset than usual this morning. I think I'll just go look for him." Tohru got up.

"I'll go with you." Yuki offered, getting up too.

"No! Its ok, I'll be fine. And as the prince of our class, dont you have an assembly you have to attend today? I believe you're supposed to give the welcoming speech to the guests. I dont want to make you late for something that important." She smiled at him.

"Well, I guess I should get going. The assembly starts at 12:00 and Its already 11:28. I'd better hurry and get dressed."

"Good luck, Yuki-Kun!" Tohru said on her way out the door.

It felt pretty warm outside, so she didn't consider taking a jacket. Part of the reason that she left was because Yuki would be away from home all day, and the fact that it was an 'important' assembly made it so that the students couln't attend. She thought Kyou would keep her company, but he took off too fast for her to ask him if he had anything to do today. Tohru had'nt had a nice walk around the park in a long time, so if she did find Kyou she would plead for him to go with her. He wasn't the type of guy who would be into that stuff, but she was sure he would go anyway, just to keep her happy. As Tohru walked through the forset she took note of all the beautiful flowers and animals that lived inside of it. She didn't really come out here much since she had set up tent to stay for a while. Just thinking about it made her remember how the Soumas took her kindly, and shared their cursed secret with her. She felt special, and most of all privileged, to meet this family. She felt like she was apart of it now, and she would do anything to keep it that way.

She made it all the way to the lake when she leaned on a tree and stared at it. It was mesmerizing how beautiful tat lake was. She wished her mom could see it with her. Tohru squinted when she seen a patch of orange hair emerge from the clear water. This is where Kyou-Kun has been all this time?

She made a waving gesture that he apparently didn't see and was just about ready to yell his nae when she noticed that not to far from the edge of the lake... was he clothes. She squealed and ducked behind the tree. She didn't want him to think she was spying on him! And if he found he would think she was a pervert! 'What do I do?!' She shrieked in her head as she heard the water splash, signaling her that he had gotten out.

She counted a few seconds before she peered around the tree branch, to see if he was no longer nude. She couldn't have been more wrong. And to make things worse, he was facing her direction! He stood pretty tall like he was proud of himself for some reason. He ran his fingers through his wet hair, which surprisingly to Tohru, looked sexy. She blushed as she stared from the ripples of his perfectly carved chest, to his athletically built leg muscles. The fact that he was small went perfectly with his body shape. Her eyes trailed back up from his calves to his...

'Sweet Kami!! Is that his penis?! That thing has to be at least 12 inches!! He could use a hefty bag for a condom!!!' Tohru shuddered at the very thought of him using that thing on any poor girl. Shed have to be really really tall, and very very...

Kyou went to pick up his clothes, and Tohru giggled at the sight of his butt. It was so adorable!! She had never really seen a guy naked, unless you included changing the diaper of her nephew. She had for gotten the sensitive ears of a neko, who had picked up on the tiny sound she made. He had put on his pants, and slowly walked towards the tree she was hiding behind. Tohru turned blue at the thought of him catching her and realizing she had been there the whole time. Why didn't she sneak away when she had the chance?! She'd better thing of something and fast!

I would write more, but my head is throbbing like crazy (why I'm telling you this, I'll never know) and I need to recharge my 'thinking' batteries. But reviews please! Hope you like this chapter!!
