Recap: A little chat between Kyo and Tohru… that's pretty much the major idea

Chapter 6

"What would we do without you, Tohru-kun," Shigure said, enjoying his meal.

Tohru looked down at her plate, as she blushed a tiny bit, "I'm sure you'd be fine without me," she replied.

"But we wouldn't get to eat such good food!" he said, using his chopsticks to put some in his mouth.

Tohru blushed a tiny bit more, "thank you," she said, embarrassed. Kyo looked over to Tohru, who was looking at her plate. He could see some pink in her cheeks, but the look on her face made him want to smile. But Yuki was sitting across from him, and he refused to show Yuki any emotions. Thinking of Yuki, he looked up to see 'that damn Yuki' staring at him intently.

"What do you want!" he shouted, showing his annoyance.

"Nothing," Yuki said, going back to eating his meal.

"Why were you staring at me?" he shouted again.

"Shut up, stupid cat," Yuki retorted.

"What was that!"

"I said, shut up. I thought you were at least smart enough to understand that," Yuki mocked, making Kyo even angrier.

Standing up from the table, Kyo stormed out of the room. "Kyo-kun! You haven't finished your meal yet!" Tohru called after him, worried. His meal had barely been touched, and he had just left. 'What if he's still hungry?' she thought. 'I'll just have to take his meal up to him later,' she decided. The rest of the meal followed on in silence.

"I will be retiring to my office," Shigure said, after him meal was finished. "Thank you, Tohru-kun, for that delicious meal," and with that, Shigure left the room, supposedly to go work on his next book.

Collecting all the dishes, Tohru took them over to the sink. She put Kyo's food aside, as she began to wash the remaining dishes. She hadn't realized that Yuki was still in the room until he came up behind her saying, "I really don't know what we would do without you, Honda-san."

"Yu-yuki-kun?" Tohru said, startled that he had snuck up behind her. She turned to face him, as she wiped her wet hands on her apron to dry them.

"When Akito came, I got so worried. I didn't want you to lose your memories, just like those kids did when I was younger. I didn't want you to forget me and all the memories we've shared together. I was scared," he admitted.

"I-I'm sorry I worried you, Yuki-kun," she managed to say, despite the deep blush that covered her face.

"Don't be sorry," he said, placing his hands on her arms. "Worrying for someone shows that you care for them. I was afraid I would lose you, Honda-san. I don't know what I would have done if I had lost you," he said, staring straight into her eyes.

"Yu-yuki-ku-" she started.

"It's thanks to you that I can speak with others more now. It's thanks to you that my heart is slowly healing. If I lost you…" his voice trailed off.

'What do I say?' she thought, her mind in turmoil. 'Thank you, or sorry, or you're welcome, or -" her thoughts were interrupted as Yuki continued on.

"You didn't hate me. You didn't think I was disgusting because of my condition. You didn't turn away, you didn't reject me. Thank you, Honda-san," he said, as he leaned over to her and kissed her on the forehead. "Thank you, for everything you have done for me."

Tohru was left speechless as Yuki let go of her arms, and walked out of the room. She stood there for another minute, taking in what had just happened, and then registering the fact that she still had dishes to do, she turned around and hurriedly finished them. "I still have to get this food up to Kyo-kun," she said, as she grabbed his bowl, and walked towards his room. Knocking on his door, she received no answer. She opened the door, and looked around, but he was not there. Deciding that he was probably on the roof, she walked outside. Spotting the ladder, she started climbing up it, one hand holding the food, the other, holding on to the ladder. "Kyo-kun!" she called, as she continued to climb up the ladder. 'The wind has really picked up,' she thought, as she continued to climb. "Kyo-kun," she called again. She was almost to the top, just a few more steps. "Kyo-ku- Ahhh!" she screamed. She had lost her grip on the ladder, and she could feel herself falling to the ground. 'Help me!' she thought, as she watched the roof distance itself from her, 'please help me."
