Chapter 2
Yuki sat on the lawn as the rain poured around him. So many questions bombarded his mind at the same time that it was almost nauseating. Why had Kyo thrown him to the ground just as they were about to kiss? Why was Kyo laughing? Smiling? Twirling Yuki around the lawn in the rain? When had Kyo begun to act this way? Was it a trick? Was it a game?
"AAHH! WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!?!?!" Yuki yelled at the sudden rush of questions, trying to force them back. Yuki became angry at the neko for making him so confused and flustered at the same time; almost enough to storm into the house, find that cat, and rip the hell out of the house with his anger when he's found. Why did I want him to kiss me?
"No, not now. I'm not going to think about that right now..."
"Think about what?" A soft voice said from behind Yuki.
Yuki's eyes became large as his whole body tensed. How could he completely lose his senses enough to allow someone to sneak up behind him like that? What if they had seen-?
"Sohma-kun? Why are you sitting in the rain?" Yuki swung around to face a puzzled Tohru. Yuki was still a little unsettled about if Tohru had seen him...and the cat...
"Tohru, what brings you back home? I though you were staying with Miss Uotani and Miss Hanajima." Yuki said, eager to change the subject.
Perfectly on que, Uo-san and Hana-san happened to step out from behind Tohru as the shorter girl blushed a cute shade of pink to magnificently match her umbrella and raincoat that she was presently wearing. Uo-san raised an eyebrow at the silver-haired boy sitting on the lawn, soaking wet. Hana-chan just had her usual serene face while Tohru beamed happily.
"Well, we decided a walk would be nice and then I thought that I should stop by and see if everything is alright with you and Kyo-kun." Tohru said. She was always so considerate and caring. Yuki stood and looked into Tohru's eyes.
"Tohru, you should get back to Miss Uotani's house before the storm gets worse. And don't worry about Kyo and I, we'll be perfectly fine." Yuki's eyes smiled peacefully. Meanwhile Uo-san's eyes wandered past Yuki toward the house and caught something there.
"Remodeling? I like what you did with the door." Uotani-san motioned with her chin over to the broken door. All of them turned and looked at the previously destroyed door.
"Oh," Yuki turned back to the girls with a glint in his eye that only Tohru understood, "Kyo accidentally tripped and fell through the door."
There was a collective "Oh.", "Oh, I see.", and "Alright." from the girls.
"Like I said, we'll be fine. You just go out and have fun with your friends. It's your weekend to relax, Honda-san." Yuki said with his Price Charming face.
"Oh, alright. Then I'll see you and Kyo-kun later!" Tohru said as she waved. All three girls turning to leave. Only Hanajima-san's eye contact remained, if only for seconds. It was a lingering look, as close to warmth as Hana-san could express. Soon, they had turned a corner and disappeared from view.
Yuki sighed. That brush with Tohru had calmed his nerves. It was clear that none of them had seen anything by the way they all acted. If Honda-san hadn't made an appearance, the house would probably be in shambles and Yuki wasn't quite ready to face Shigure if the house was completely leveled.
Yuki stalked back into the house, breathing slowly and steadily. Water dripped on the floors as he wandered in to the house, up the stairs and to his room where he discarded his soaking clothes and acquire dry ones. Then wander to the bathroom to grab a bath towel, dry off, and put on his dry clothes. Yuki tried to keep his mind as blank as possible as he went about the house doing all of this.
Yuki walked out of the bathroom with a towel on his head, covering half of his face when he looked up to find himself facing a very wet Kyo standing in the hallway in front of him. There was a moment where time completely stopped as Kyo's image burned itself to the back of Yuki's eyes so even when he blinked there was no escaping the cute sight in front of him. Kyo's clothes were heavy with water and stuck close to his skin in some places, his hair was drooping and his eyes were sad, his lips puckered in a way so to imply a slight frown, arms hung at his sides, dry clothes were clutched in one hand. Yuki's heart sped up a few beats and Kyo let out an adorable little sneeze.
"Can I get to the bathroom or what?" The cat tried to sound annoyed. Yuki backed up a few steps to let the cat pass by. Kyo slowly stepped by Yuki into the bathroom, closing the door. The nezumi stood for a few moments with the towel hanging half over his face just staring down the hall.
All those questions came rushing back in one moment. Questions about everything that had happened today. Why had Yuki wanted Kyo to kiss him? Why all of the sudden were the cat and mouse not at each other's throats? Why was Kyo acting so odd? Why was Yuki acting so odd? So many odd questions with no answer push forward in Yuki's mind, obscuring normal thought.
Yuki took a step forward and found his foot in a puddle of cool water, in fact the whole hall had water all along it. The questions would have to wait. Right now Yuki had to clean the water on the floor.
Kyo stared at himself in the mirror. Whenever he closed his eyes he couldn't help but see that rat looking so bewildered with that towel half over his face, his hair wet, and his one visible violet eye staring at him. Kyo was tempted to beat his fist on the vanity to possibly clear his head but he knew it would cause more trouble than good, so he decided against it.
Questions...Kyo hated questions. But as the Cat stood in the bathroom in his own puddle of dripping water, those questions that he hated began to flood his mind. There was no way to catch one full question because it would slip away and another would replace it.
Kyo was angry because of what he had done only minutes earlier. He remembered going outside to catch some rain, then Yuki appearing and then everything was a blur after that. Kyo remembered taking Yuki in his arms and dancing about- wait...no...Kyo doesn't dance... it was more like spinning about on the lawn in a sort of daze. The look on Yuki's face, the feel of the other boy against him, then he'd stopped spinning and held Yuki real close and...no. No, this wasn't happening.
Kyo had known about the feelings for the Mouse for some time, but he had never EVER even thought to act on them, but now he had. Yuki probably thought Kyo was some kind of perverted faggot now. He'd probably spread it around school and Kyo would never go back to that place again. And the Sohma's, they would never allow him in if they were to find out.
What had made Kyo do what he did? But the Cat admitted it had felt nice the way his heart raced when those violet eyes were looking into his, their bodies as close as possible, those lips were so close. But then Kyo had snatched his control back and realized what had happened; he dropped the mouse and retreated to the house.
Then just seeing that nezumi again has sparked those burning questions again. Kyo peeled the soaked clothing from his body and replaced them with dry ones, wringing out the wet clothes as best he could in the bathtub.
Kyo stepped out of the bathroom and found the floors had been recently mopped, Yuki's doing probably. Kyo took his wet clothes to the laundry to find that Yuki had already placed his clothing in the dryer, and then went to the porch outside the living room. The cat curled up on the porch watching the rain while he contemplated the questions in his mind, wanting to get them out of his way as soon as possible.
Yuki had finished mopping up the water that both he and the cat had drug into the house and he put away the mop into the closet. He had concluded in his mind that he had feelings for the Cat. There was no doubt that there was some odd attraction between them. But yet, the question of Kyo's actions puzzled Yuki beyond all else. The mouse wasn't sure how to handle that sort of situation when one spark of affection could ignite such flames of desire. It was all puzzling to the poor mouse and all this thinking was getting to his head.
There wasn't anything to busy himself with so Yuki returned to his previous position in the living room to stare out the broken door at the weather. The rain wasn't stopping, it didn't look like it would intend to all of today. Maybe it would be gone by tomorrow so that he could go and check on his garden. Ah, well, rain would be good for his plants.
I'm working on a Chapter 3, but I'm still working on a good plot for that one. Well anyway, please review, I simply love it when people do that.
