Haha! Last chapter! Oh, I just wanted to pointed out that… when I read one of the reviews… (Yup! Thanks!) about Kana and all… She is part of the Sohma family! She doesn't know of the curse however. Yeah… Hatori is related to her and all. :) So… just to make that clear… Ha! If you watch the episode, Kana makes a statement "I guess we're in the same family…" or something like that. Thanks for pointing it out, Goldchain! I forgot to clear that up!

Thanks so much for the reviews!

Last Chapter- Final Chapter

Silently the rain poured. The rain grew stronger and stronger within each passing minute, until at last, it was probably at its strongest. The wind howled as the rain exploded on to the ground with a blam! each second.

The girl didn't notice it though. She focused her thought onto the two boys she admired… that she loved so dearly. Yet, little by little, as time went by, and she herself, haven't noticed it either, she began to have a romantic love for one of those boys. She really couldn't describe it in words… this feeling. She never noticed this feeling ever before. With the pressure of everyone around her, it… didn't seem possible. It didn't seem possible for her to find out that she really did love one of the boys.

Maybe it's because of how dense she was. She would never notice anything before. Maybe she really didn't love anyone. But… to see that one person… she approached a new feeling each passing day. Sure, she didn't notice the rain at all. Sure, she never noticed the love connection that the two boys wanted to share with her.

She walked on. Silently and stiffly. The rain caught her dead cold, and yet, this didn't seem to bother her. Maybe it's the fact that she wanted to catch this feeling and be sure of it. Maybe that's why. She knew where to head to, as she headed onto the deep darkness of time. She couldn't describe it, but she had a feeling she knew where. Maybe it's the fact that she been there a couple of times. It just might be.

However, before she had a chance to ever see her special someone, she wanted… to protect something dear to her. She wanted to protect it… She approached the vegetable garden that the girl and one of the boys made. She gave a slight smile as she saw the boy's appearance as she stared at the vegetable garden. It faded away slowly.

Finally, she choked out the words… she choked them out as a tear ran down her cheeks. "Yuki." Remembering where she was, she took the cover nearby and covered the garden. She wanted to protect this garden so badly… it was the special garden that the boy and she helped shape into what it was now.

It was hard to cover the plants as it rained. She tried to cover it all, but yet the wind manages to blow away the cover each time. It landed into a different area each time and she sighed. She cried silently to herself as she placed the cover on the plants again. She held onto one side of the cover, but the cover flew up and smacked against her face. She lowered her head and stared at the ground. She let the cover flapped against her cheeks. "What am I going to do?" She stiffly smiled.

Suddenly, the flap was out of her face. A boy approached and brought the flap down to its original place and held it down. "Hey." He stared at the ground, embarrassed.

She twirled her head from the ground to the boy he was nearby. Why would he be here? She shook her head as she blushed slightly. She widened her eyes as she saw him. "Kyo!"

"Yeah… what is it? Tohru?" the boy-Kyo-muttered, still staring at the ground.

"Thanks." She smiled at him, as tears ran down her cheeks. It continued to rain. Both of them held onto the cover and were in an awkward silence. The silence continued for a long time. That was until… he talked.

"I don't like to see you cry," Kyo muttered as he took a quick glance at Tohru and back to the ground.

"Huh? I'm crying?" She shook her head as she smiled faintly. "It's just probably the rain…" She shook her head. What should I say? she thought.

"Um.." She tried to make a conversation. "Kyo… I thought you hated the rain!" She looked up to the sky.

At first he was silent but nodded. "Yeah. I do. I just don't to see you get sick." Tohru once again was in a shocked stage.

Once again the rain roared as the silence continued. Again… Kyo broke the silence.

"You know, you… don't have to like me. Or love me," Kyo couldn't bear to look up. He kept his head lowered. "You can go over to that damn rat." He muttered quietly. Tohru kept quiet and stared at her hands that were placed over Yuki's base. She knew she had to follow her heart.

XXXXXX

Back at the Sohma main household, Shigure has just arrived. He stormed into the house and into Akito's room. Everyone with the curse was in his room, crouching besides him. Some of them looked worried. Ritsu, the monkey wept quietly as everyone one else just stared in silence. Yuki, however, was standing outside, at the gate. Shigure managed to give him a quick nod before he headed inside. Shigure took a seat next to Hatori. He asked, "When will time come that death approach?"

"Within minutes," Hatori whispered with no emotion on his face whatsoever. "He's dead."

Shigure backed up and crawled his way to Ayami. He sat next to Ayami and kept a straight face on. Ayami started a conversation. "You know… Yuki is out in the rain."

"Yes, I saw him as I entered." Shigure whispered as he nodded. "Why is he?"

"Waiting for the flower," Ayami whispered back after a moment. "Waiting…"

Shigure turned wide-eyed. Ayami and Yuki are surprisingly close. "Yuki has asthma though…"

Ayami shook his head. "He's been waiting for awhile. He really doesn't care. For the reason that his love would be returned and save someone's life. But… there's a possibility it might not work out that way."

"Eh?" Shigure shook his head along. He understood the situation, but continued to ask anyways.

"You see, the flower must pick. Poor Yuki been out there for a long time and it doesn't seem that Akito is getting any better." He listened to Akito's cough that grew more intense. Maybe… the flower won't break the curse after all." He muttered sadly.

Ayami… surely isn't acting like himself. Shigure thought as he shook his head. He stared at Akito, who's cough was growing stronger.

XXXX

Yuki stood outside leaning against the gate to the Sohma household. He was sick of staying in the same room as Akito. Plus… he was waiting for Miss Honda…

It's almost time… Yuki thought as he placed his hand over his face. "Miss Honda…" He shook his head. He will continue to wait. He had it thought out already. Maybe someday… If Miss Honda does not come, I'll just give up. Yuki gave a weak smile. Maybe it's time that the cat had something.

Yet, still he continued to wait outside.

XXXX

"You know, I thought you were just one of those 'girls' back than…" Kyo continued. Tohru didn't manage to look up.

"When you saw my true form, maybe that was the reason I thought about you…" Kyo placed more pressure onto his hands. "The reason that I got so worked up.

"Cause the fact that you healed me from my past… I couldn't help but to feel differently about you. A feeling that is way that Kagura probably feels about me," Kyo winced once and yelled, "Go to that damn Yuki!"

Tohru waited patiently until silence rose again. She smiled as she looked at Kyo, "You know, Kyo, maybe the reason we love others is to feel safe." Kyo looked up and caught Tohru's eyes. It continued to rain.

"Loving someone is one of the reasons that we were born to live. Some of the people out there feel like that love is something easily grasped, but it's not. All of us… must go look for it. It may be the fact that loving someone brings that one true feeling that you want so much." Tohru nodded to herself. Kyo stared at her surprised, at what she just said.

The rain began to stop down slowly. Tohru didn't noticed. She continued, "The one feeling… this one feeling… my own feeling… I think… it's for you, Kyo."

She whispered softly, "I love you too, Kyo."

The rain stopped as Kyo stared at Tohru more surprised. He really didn't know what to do. He was glad. He wanted this feeling to last. He did the one thing that came to his mind.

He slowly got up and walked over to Tohru. "I'm glad… I am really glad." He placed his arms around her. As he got closer, embracing her. "I love you," He gently whispered… he tightened his grip, until at last… it was a hug… he didn't care that he would transform. He didn't care…

…and he didn't transform.

"Kyo…" the girl hugged the boy back. "This is the best things in life."

THE END

Afterwards:

Akito opens his eyes once more, hoping he was in hell. Instead, he found the most of the zodiac animals staring at him. He looked at his hands as he lifted his head. He whispered, "It's broken." He drifted back into sleep. Everyone sighed with relief. Kagura bursted into tears.

All of them noticed too, for they felt this suddenness that passed through them quickly and faintly. Shigure smiled faintly and looked up at the ceiling. "Thank you, Tohru. The many years that this curse ran through the family… no one has to go through it any longer."

Yuki faintly smiled as he walked into the room where everyone else was. They kept quiet and Ayami gasped. Yuki was smiling.

"Yes, Miss Honda didn't pick me," he smiled weakly. "I guess, the cat can finally have something." He shrugged as he lowered his head.

"But Yuki, my dear brother…" Ayami blurted out. He was cut short by Yuki. Yuki shot his head back up. He had his 'rare' smile on.

"I'll learn to live through it… and I'll be able to find someone to love me," he turned his back and walked out the door. Miss Honda told me, that we do not really get over things, but learn to live through it. Yuki thought as he exited the door. And I want to learn.
