AN: Yay! Here's the next pair that I adore! First off, I want to thank firetwins for that wonderful comment, which makes this author a very happy girl. I am a Kyo/Tohru fan too! I guess that's why it's so easy to write their poem. Also, as always, I thank Haru and Kisa Lover for encouraging me to keep going! Thanks, Sanrio-chan! Okay, before I start to ramble on and on, let's get to this poem!
Just like Shigure and Akito's, except that this is based directly on the events on their meeting. Kureno is in italics and Arisa is in plain print.
Enjoy and don't forget to review!
"Our Longing"
Kureno X Arisa
I wander the streets alone one night,
and decided to visit a shop with bright lights.
Inside, I picked items without a single thought;
because of that they all took a single fall.
The minute I saw, I recognized his little spill;
I laughed and said "Is this for real?"
Just like a certain friend,
this person, this special man.
It was then, when I saw her laugh and smile;
For some reason, I wanted to watch her for awhile...
I have that pleasant feeling, I haven't felt...ever,
Please make this last forever.
After days passed by since then,
I have this longing to see him again.
Why do I have this feeling?
Just because I was happy.
On another day of wondering,
I heard footsteps, running after me.
And there she was, smiling.
As same as me...does she share that longing?
By fate, we had a second meeting,
Yet, somehow I when I look at him, I get this sad feeling.
He smiled a sad smile with helpless words;
Deep inside, it made my chest hurt.
I didn't realize that I hurt her so easily,
until she tell me why I couldn't smile more happily;
and that she was happy to see me once more.
I was really stupid for saying those helpless words before.
For a moment, I thought I couldn't make him smile;
until he ran after me and explained to me for awhile:
"I spoke without thinking...
I was happy, too...that you spoke to me...really."
I also said that I wanted to see her again, since that night.
Then, I saw that smile again with a blush in sight.
It really made me happy that she was too...
So much, that I almost told her, "I love you."
Surprisingly, he held my hand and touched my face,
and looked at me with loving eyes...then walked away...
I didn't know what to think at that moment...
But stared at the direction he left...so sudden.
A dark secret kept me from going forward;
I cried inside for leaving her...
Because I always wanted to see her again.
Arisa, my true love and only friend.
As time goes on, I thought of him...
Always wondering what he's doing...
Will I see him again?
My answer came soon from that certain friend.
I haven't told anyone about her,
Until I met with that girl...
...who is a friend of hers...
the one who knows my family and our curse.
She told me that he belonged to that family,
the ones she is living with, currently.
And that there was someone else he's considering...
I still love that fool so much...that it's hurting.
Always in a distant dream I longed to see that face...
Forever I longed to return to that place...
But I couldn't return in this lifetime...
Yet, I thank the stars and sky for that time.
Always I longed to see him in any time given...
Just to say I love him...
Because...the last time...in his eyes were the truth...
It was like he said "I love you."
Based on Chapter 50 & 99. Hopefully, they will see each other again...
