Redmoonfae: Awww! Tohru, I'm soo proud of you! You confessed your love!

Tohru/Yuki: -blush blush-

Redmoonfae: So, when's the wedding?

Tohru/Yuki: O.O

Redmoonfae: Enjoy! (P.S: Let's give it up for bubbles078! She was the one who gave me the idea of Tohru talking to Momiji! -applause-)

o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o

Tohru's eyes fluttered open. She blinked as she couldn't remeber where she was. She looked up and saw Yuki, his head turned towards her, sleeping soundly. The memories came back from the night before and she had to smile and blush.

Her smile quickly turned to a frown as she queitly got up and out of bed. She blushed as she remebered she had no clothes on. Yuki shifted slightly in his sleep, his bare chest heaving up and down with each breath. Tohru sighed in her mind that Yuki didn't wake up.

She gathered up her carelessly strewn clothes from the floor. She quickly hurried out of the room and into her own. She got dressed into a pair of shorts and her shirt that said, 'Heartbreaker' on it. She packed her cloths and hairbrush and her picture of her mother and of her Yuki and Kyo together.

She stared at the picture with her and the Sohma cousins. She was in the middle, giveing her normal smile, eyes closed. Yuki was smileing as well, and Kyo had somewhat of a scowl on his face. Tohru smiled as she packed the picture and clipped her suitcase shut.

She walked back into Yuki's room, placeing her suitcase on the floor outside his room. She quietly walked over to his bed and bent down. She placed a light kiss on his cheek before turning and leaveing, tears beginning to well up in her eyes.

She grabbed her suitcase and left the house, closeing the door behind her. She stopped and turned to look at the house where her beloved Yuki lived in one last time. It was early morning and he shouldn't wake up for a few more hours. Yuki had never been a morning person.

She began to head down the path in the woods. She was deep in thought as she heard a rustling in the bushes behind her. She froze in her steps and looked behind her. There, staggering out of the bushes, was the creature from her nightmares. She dropped her suitcase in a small bush next to her out of fear.

Her uncle turned towards her, wobbling as he walked. He held a beer bottle in one hand as he advanced on her. Tohru slowly began to back away, fingers twitching slighlty.

"Hello wench..." her uncle said in a droozy voice.

Tohru's breath was ragad as she continued to back away from him. All at once, he charged towards her, holding the beer bottle like a weapon. Tohru fled for her life, running as fast as her legs could carry her.

If only she hadn't wandered so far from Yuki's home! She would be able to double back and be safe within his arms. She was lost in thought as she was suddenly falling. Her foot had snagged under a root and she had tripped.

She hit the ground with a thud. She slowly got up, her body aching. The next she knew, someone was tugging on her hair, hard. She let out a small yelp of pain as she was dragged to her feet. Her uncle looked into her fearful eyes, his own filled with malice.

The last thing she saw, was her uncle raiseing the bottle over his head, and bringing it down hard.

o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o

Tohru moaned in pain as she opened her eyes. Her vision was foggy and blurry. She closed her eyes for a few minutes before reopening them. Her hand went to the back of her head where she felt a warm thick liquid.

Her hand came back bloody. She groaned again and looked around. She almost screamed in terror. She was in her uncle's home, on the couch. Her uncle was sitting in the chair across from her, smoking a cigar.

Tohru sat up quickly, her head aching. She winced as a bolt of pain surged through her body. Her uncle stood up and gripped her throat, pulling her to her feet.

Tohru gasped as she fought for air. She tried to pry her uncle's hands off her throat.

"Now why did you run away you little wench?" he asked in a low dangerous voice.

Tohru couldn't answer, she was struggeling too much for breath.

"Did you find your precious Yuki? Did he save you from your big bad uncle?" he said in a mocking tone. He threw Tohru to the ground, glareing down at her.

Tohru took in large gasps of breath before she glared back at her venomously.

"He'll kill you. He'll come here and he'll kill you." Tohru spat out, her words tainted with poison.

"Oh, I'm hopeing he comes." her uncle said before going into the kitchen.

He came back a moment later with a knife in one hand and a gun in the other.

"I'm planning on him comeing hear." he knealt down next to Tohru and brushed away some hair from her face with the knife.

Tohru pulled her head away and glared at him. "Your precious Yuki will be comeing hear to save you. He'll walk through that door-" he pointed to the door, "and he'll try to save you. But he wouldn't lay a finger on me if he knew at any second, I could pull this trigger, and kill his beloved princess." he smirked as he placed the gun to Tohru's head.

"And once he surrenders, not wanting to harm his beloved, I'll slit that damn rat's throat and watch him choke on his own blood! And it'll be all your fault! You'll watch him as he dies, knwoing you caused it! And then you'll go back to working for me." he said standing up, still smirking.

Tohru lay still on the ground, her eyes wide with terror. Yuki would die today because of her. He would die because she was too weak to do anything. Her breath was ragged as she thought it over.

"No..." she muttered, unaudible.

"What'd you say, bitch?" her uncle snarled.

"No..." she said louder this time, shakily beginning to get up.

"I know you ain't talken to me-"

"NO!" she screamed getting up. She kicked him as hard as she could in the groin, watching him recoil and fall to the ground.

"You won't lay one god damn FINGER on him!" she said, kicking him again in the stomach.

She spat in his face and then ran out the door. She ran down the street, running faster than she ever had in her life. She came to the spot where her uncle had taken her. She saw bits of broken glass and blood around the area. She searched for her suitcase and grabbed it, running through the woods.

She had to get out of here. If her uncle found her, Yuki would die. She ran through the woods, branchs cutting her face and arms. But she didn't care. As long as Yuki lived, nothing else mattered to her, not even her own life.

She finnaly came to a clearing, arms, face, and legs cut and bleeding. Her breast heaved up and down as she fought for breath. She remebered this place. It was where she had gone when Kyo had taken on his evil form.

She staggered over to a few rocks, one had claw marks on it. She sat down on a rock, stareing out at the small lake, eyes welled up and over flowing with tears.
