Chapter 5- Under The Stars
She walked across the roof top and sat next to Kyo.
" Kyo, why don't you like me anymore?" Tohru asked, hoping to get a answer from him, and tears starting to swell in her eyes.
Kyo looked at her, eyes wide. " Tohru, I do like you." he said smoothly.
" Then why…why did you tell me that one day not to talk to you? Not to go near you?"
" Tohru, just forget I said that okay? Please, just erase them from your memory. I didn't mean any of those words. I never could have meant any of those words to you. Something just came over me that night. And…I took it out on you, and I really am sorry."
" Its okay, Kyo-Kun…"
Kun, at least I no she is back to normal…
" So, did you wipe the memory's of that day away?"
" Yup!"
" Good. So now I can talk to you again." he looked over at Tohru's wondering eyes. She smiled, and he smiled back. Then, a tear slipped down her face.
" Why are you crying now?" He questioned firmly.
" its just. I'm so happy now Kyo-kun. Your finally talking to me now!"
Kyo just shook his head at Tohru.
" I thought you had changed. But I guess I was wrong…" Kyo looked up at the stars.
" but, I am happy that you didn't change…" he said solemnly.
Tohru wiped the tears from her face with her sleeve, then she to looked up at the stars.
" There beautiful…" she said, now standing to get a better look.
Just like you… he thought, looking at Tohru admire the stars.
He smiled now, happily. So did Tohru. She wasn't smiling sad anymore. Now he new that when she smiled, there was feelings in her smile. A smile that could make the most coldest persons heart pure again. A smile Kyo loved, and always would.
" Tohru, maybe we should go inside…"
" No Kyo-kun. Look at the sky. Cant you see all the shooting stars!" she turned to face Kyo. " Make a wish!"
Just like that one day, when I wished you were to stop crying. he thought… Now I wish…I really do wish that nothing will happen to you Tohru. That you will be safe, and away from Akito…
he thought…Tohru finally sat back down next to Kyo. " We should do something tomorrow. We should get Momiji to come to. He might enjoy getting away from the Sohma resident as well…"
Kyo just nodded in agreement. He didn't care of Momiji were to come now. All he cared about was that he could actually be with Tohru again.
" Did you make a wish Kyo-Kun?"
" yup. Did you?"
Tohru nodded happily.
I wish Kyo will be happy. Even though he says he is happy, I can still see the sadness in his eyes. Something is bothering him. And I want to know why. I think I know, but I'm not sure. And…I am pretty sure I know how to break the curse now…
" Kyo-kun?"
" Hm…?"
" If I were to break the curse of the zodiac, would you to, not turn into the cat anymore?"
Kyo was taken aback from her question, but then finally answered it. " Well yeah, I would think so. Why did you ask me that?"
" Its just, the cat isn't part of the zodiac. And it says that the curse of the zodiac would be broken. But I guess your right. I don't see why it wouldn't be broken on you…"
Kyo looked at Tohru. He had never thought of it like that. Maybe she was right. Maybe the curse on him couldn't be broken. Maybe he would be stuck like this forever. But right now, he didn't want to think about that. His mind was to wrapped up in other things. Like, how he was talking to Tohru again. And how happy it made him. And then about Yuki. If Yuki was right, then Akito really couldn't hurt Tohru. Kyo could just stick up for her, and maybe Akito would leave her alone.
And then, he was thinking about how he only had one year left before he were to be locked away in that cage, unless he beat Yuki. And the fact that he new perfectly was…he couldn't beat Yuki. He new it. Yuki was just better at fighting then him. Something he had always admitted to himself.
" I just wish I could find out a way to break the curse…" Tohru said, breaking Kyo's thoughts.
" And I hope you find that way…" he said.
Both Tohru and Kyo sat on the roof for the night. Talking about random stuff. Nothing really important. But what they would for the upcoming summer. Tohru had suggested Kyo get a job, but that idea he did not like. So that subject was dropped very quickly. Then Tohru mentioned the beach. And even though Kyo didn't like the water, he liked the idea of spending some time at the beach.
Tohru had also mentioned her noticing to Hiro not liking her very much. But Kyo just reassured himself it was because Kisa liked Tohru, and Hiro was jealous. Tohru agreed.
After about a few hours of being on the roof, sleep began to start taking over Tohru. She wanted to go to her bed and get some sleep. But she was also so very happy to be with kyo. Finally being able to hear him talk to her. She didn't want to leave this moment. It had meant so much to her. She was enjoying Kyo's company as well.
For the last almost 2 weeks that Kyo hadn't talked to Tohru, she felt lonely. Even when she was with her friends. Or with Yuki and Shigure. Something was just missing from her life. And she now new what it was. It was Kyo.
Not that even herself could believe, but she now new it was him.
" Tohru, do you want to go to sleep?" Kyo asked, seeing how tired she was.
" NO, its okay I'm fine…"
Only a few seconds later had Tohru fallen asleep. Her head, wresting on Kyo's shoulder for support.
He smiled happily, stroked some hair out of her face, and gently-so not to wake her- kiss her on the forehead.
" its you I have miss so much Tohru. And you are the reason why I will beat Yuki. And also the reason why I will stick up to Akito…"
OMG 3 Chapters in 1 day. i really must have had nothing to do today. The only thing i cant think about was that i went swimming for a few hours. Then i took a nap...( lazy ness took over me today). But i still got in the next chapter. Short I know. But it was a nice chapter. Just Kyo and Tohru in this one. Well anyways i just wanted to say that in my upcoming chapter some things r going to get really mean. So, it should be very good. So please just stick with me on this story! Anways thanks to...
kagome1614- Like always, you have left me a wonderful review. I just love getting reviews from you. they really are fun to read! And yes, i know Yuki doesnt really give advice, but i thought i would put that in there anyways. And i know, i cant believe Shigure loves Akito. I know she is a girl and everything, but i mean she was grown up so every one thought she was a boy. Anyways thanks for the wonderful review...i really did enjoy reading it.
I Also wanted to say that i might make Tohru break the curse of the zodiac in this story. And if i do, i dont know if that is the exact way to break the curse. So i will most likely be making it up! like always please r/r thanks
