Nighttime Is For Lovers...

In a daze, Tohru walked back to her desk. She saw the Fan Club girls make their way to her desk, as well. "YUKI IS OURS!" they all said at once, out of breath.'They were running...?' Then she saw Hana behind them, giving her a small smile. She put her finger up to her lips, signaling Tohru to be quite...

"I feel so tired...ugh, I'm gonna get some sleep..." one said, eyes drooping.

"I forgot...what were we doing?" another said with a confused look.

"SNAP OUT OF IT SHE'S BRAINWASHING...huh...wait. Umm...who am I?" asked Motoko, looking at her other friends.

"You all were going to go to your classroom...its far, far down the hall, remember?"Hana said, amused. "Oh...right! Thank you...uh..." "Hana." "Hana!Thank you, Hana!" They all ran off towards their new "classroom." 'Wow. I didn't know Hana's powers were so...well, powerful!'

"You better fix them soon,Hana...you don't want that bathroom incident to happen again...Man, the looks on those guy's faces!" Arisa laughed. She got up and whispered, "So...? What happened between you and the Prince!". Tohru didn't answer. She could still remember the way Yuki looked at her in that room...the feelings the that rose from the way his breath felt on her skin...

"Oh. N-Nothing. He asked if I needed any help with my schoolwork." It was a lie. She knew it. So did her friend. She felt the blood rise rising to her cheeks. Arisa gave her a skeptical look."He kissed you, didn't he? OH HE DID!" she yelled, excited.

"No, no. Please. He didn't, I swear." Tohru said feebly.'I mean, he never actually kissed me, but...Yuki I didn't know you felt that way!' "Ok, he didn't, I was exaggerating,"Arisa cleared it up, giving her a sly wink.

"Didn't what?"

Perfect timing, dude.

'Oh, no! Kyo...I wonder if he heard, too...?' He looked angry. Like he was holding in his anger again..."What did that damn Rat do?" he asked.

"Oh, Kyo! Nothing. We weren't even talking abou Yuki!Haha..." 'Why am I defending myself?'She couldn't help it, though...maybe...she had feelings for him, too?

Kyo just stared at her.

And stared.

And stared.

Finally, he blinked. With a sour look, Kyo left the room.

"Kyo...!"Tohru shouted.

"Don't talk to me!" he shouted back, the fury in his voice very clear, now.

She ran out into the hallway, near tears. 'He's angry at me! Oh, Kyo, I'm so sorry! Wait. Sorry for what?' Tohru was so confused. There were too many mixed feelings inside of her, too many to make sense of.

Tohru caught up with him. As she placed her hand on his arm, Kyo spun around. He looked awful. His face was red, 'He's blushing!', and he looked embarrased, like he had been thinking too hard about one thing. His hair was ruffled, like anxious fingers had been pushed through it.

He didn't give her a chance to react. He gave her a sincere look, and put his lips on hers. The kiss was never demanding, and it never turned into anything more but the mere touching of their lips, but it certainly did not feel like it. Feelings deep inside of Tohru sprung to life, feelings she didn't even know she had. She leaned in towards Kyo, not too much so as to cause him to transform, but enough to feel the warmth of his body. This feeling she felt...she...liked it.

It was then she realized why Kyo was angry. He loved her. Or, at least, he cared enough for her to get angry.'He must have overheard me and Arisa's conversation...'

"Kyo..."she said, watching him lift his head up, and smile.

"Nighttime is for lovers, Tohru."

"What? I don't understand..."she said.'What is he talking about?' Kyo gave her one last smile, and walked away. She started to run after him, only to stop when she reached the steps going up to the rooftop.

Slowly, Tohru walked up the steps...

And then she woke up.
