Sessyasha: I hope to keep you reading ;;

By the time Hatori had gotten back to the main house, his heart was bleeding towards Tohru. He hated what was happening to ruin Tohru's happiness; he wanted to punch Kyo, to teach the outcast a lesson. He didn't want to do it in front of Tohru; she had already suffered enough. He opened the car door, feeling for her hand as he led her inside. He sat down on a chair beside her, her hands clutching his tightly. "I'm sorry Hatori-san, this must seem like such a burden to you…"

"Tohru-kun, nothing is too much too me. When you need me, I will always do my best to be there for you." His body ached at not being able to embrace her, his heart almost breaking at the thought of what the curse took away. He wouldn't let Tohru suffer, not after what happened to Kana. He simply put an arm around her shoulders, letting her head lie in his chest softly. This was all he could do, he couldn't embrace her, and she couldn't embrace him, what a complex thought.

"I don't want to ruin anyone's happiness, I am most happy when I am with you Hatori-san."

"Tohru-kun, I will always be happy with you. You are not ruining anyone's happiness."

"I am so glad…that you are here…Hatori-chan?"

"It's okay to call me that, Tohru-chan." She smiled happily at the thought, and felt more relaxed. Her body relaxed more against his, and he could only slightly put his arm around her, holding her wrist softly. "What do you want to do now?"

"Can we stay like this for awhile…Hatori-chan?"

"Of course Tohru-chan."

Meanwhile…

Shigure heard a knock at the door, he had been typing ever since Hatori had come to pick up Tohru. He heard a second knock, and no footsteps towards the door, this meant Yuki and Kyo were zoning out then. He got up, stiff from sitting for hours, he took of his glasses, he felt strained. The way to the door was too short, and his body was giving off the stiffness greatly. "Hello? O, hello Momiji."

"Is Tohru here?" The rabbit was somewhat happy, jumping up and down still.

"I'm afraid she went to Ha-san. She needed to get checked up on something, and really didn't feel well." He tried to lie about it; it tore at his heart what Kyo had done.

Flashback…(Shigure's POV)

I looked at Tohru with newfound pride, I knew about Ha-san. I was glad Tohru would bring him happiness. "Tohru, are you going out with Ha-san?" Her face looked nervous and she was blushing madly.

"What…yes…but how?"

"Don't worry, Ayame told me. I suppose that means yes?" I remember thinking of everything possible that Ha-san would not do to Tohru.

"Well, breakfast is done, do…Yuki and Kyo know?"

"I wouldn't doubt it, but I'll keep them away if you need it Tohru-kun."

"T-thank you Shigure-san." Her eyes always brightened when she felt safe, I was glad that she was happy as well. Kyo and Yuki entered the room though, and the tension could be cut with a butter knife. The meal went all right until Kyo's inability to control his anger came out.

"Why didn't you tell us you were going out with Hatori?"

End flashback (end POV)

"Is she going to be all right Shigure? I know she's going out with Hatori…"

"Does everyone know?"

"Akito doesn't."

"That's a good thing, I'll tell you when she comes back Momiji."

"Thanks Shi-chan!" Momiji ran off, and Shigure closed the door. The remnants of breakfast still remained on the table.

Meanwhile…

Kyo looked up at the sky, his thoughts wandered to what he had done.

Flashback…(Kyo's POV)

"Why didn't you tell us you were going out with Hatori?" I yelled out, I was jealous of Hatori for taking the place I had wanted in Tohru's heart. My anger would not hold, and the tension seemed to suddenly leave the area. I saw her face look down, and I felt Shigure's piercing eyes on me.

"We don't mean to be angry…" I heard that stupid rat's voice come out, his voice was trying to calm the tension I had just cleared. "We just didn't know." Tohru didn't look up to clear our fears; she still looked down.

"What is it with you? You two act as if you like her, and when Hatori wants his happiness…you take it away? Are you trying to be Akito?" Shigure's voice was angry, and this voice was not usually heard. There was no hentai in his voice as he was talking now, mostly aimed at me. Tohru ran, and her door locked with a thud, so much guilt ran through me.

End Flashback…(end POV)

Meanwhile…

Hatori and Tohru were sitting down, somewhat nibbling food. The feelings in that room were very calm at last, and they both made the food. This went on for another few minutes as Hatori walked to the bedroom, he was tired. Tohru followed, and he then hit his head for being stupid. "Do you want the guest Bedroom Tohru-chan? I can always use the guest bedroom if you want."

"Couldn't we share a room for the night?" Her eyes were looking around, and she looked scared of what she wanted to do. He knew what she wanted; she feared that something might happen to her alone.

"Of course Tohru-chan, what side do you want?" He wanted to give her as much space as she needed.

"Whatever side that you don't use."

"Umm…that would be the right." She smiled and walked out getting ready for bed, he began to do so himself.

Meanwhile…

Yuki was still looking at his math book; he didn't have homework. He wanted to seem like he was busy.

Flashback…(Yuki's POV)

I looked at that stupid cat again; he had really done it. "I didn't mean to hurt her…" His voice was like putting salt on an open wound, he had already hurt Tohru enough.

"Well, you stupid cat…you did. I told you not to yell last night, but what did you do? You yelled at her!" I was angry, and letting out my jealous rage on Kyo again. I hated what he did, even though I was jealous as well.

"Weren't you jealous too!" I was sick of his voice now, I wanted to punch him in the jaw and shut the place that let his voice out. I wanted to keep his mouth sore for the rest of his life.

"Of course I was, I wasn't like you, who say it bluntly. She could have been happy thinking about the date, and you just push it out of her." I felt the anger in the room rising, and he was about to hit me. I blocked, knocking him onto the table as it broke in half. "You think this is easy for me? When I heard it, I couldn't stand it. I was so mad at myself." I let the stupid cat, or should I say kitten go. I walked to my secret base for a while, but found it better to go in my room.

End flashback…(end POV)

Meanwhile…

Hatori let Tohru on the bed first, making sure to keep a safe distance from a hug. "Good night Hatori-chan." Her voice was much more calm, and her lips touched his softly. He returned it, making it last, it took forever to get out of.

"Good night Tohru-chan." He shut his eyes, feeling his heart beat two fast beats.
