Disclamier- I do not own Fruits basket...

Chapter 2- Sickly

When Tohru awoke the sun wasn't even up, and she was in her own room. She looked around, remembering falling asleep on the roof. Then at the clock. It was 12 midnight. She sighed knowing she hadn't fallen asleep to long ago. Then, hearing some heavy breathing she looked to the floor where Kyo was. Only he wasn't a person, he was a cat.

" oh Kyo-kun I'm so sorry!" she said, bending down and picking him up. " I shouldn't have fallen asleep on the roof!"

" No, no! Its ok, really…" he replied, now almost falling asleep in Tohru's arms as she pet him gently.

" Thanks Kyo-kun…"

She looked around for his clothe, not seeing them in her room. She got up, got of her room, and saw them right outside her doorway.

" He must have transformed a few times…" she said to herself picking them up and entering his room.

She moved towards his bed, and looked down at him. He was sleeping as she rubbed behind his ears. A soft prrr coming from his. She giggled before placing him down, his clothe on the other side of him and ran out of his room, and into hers.

With once glance at her bed, she could feel her sleepiness taking her over again. She went over to her bed, and collapsed on it with a sigh of relief. In only a few moments was she asleep.

" Ms. Honda!" Yuki called from her room. " Ms. Honda are you okay, its going on 1 in the afternoon, are you feeling well."

Tohru's eyes slowly opened at Yuki's voice. She looked over at her alarm clock, and he eyes widened. When she went to go stand, she could feel a sick feeling in her stomach, and laid back down quickly.

" Ms. Honda?" Yuki opened the door to see Tohru trying to stand up. " what's wrong?" he asked.

" eh…oh…nothing. I feel just fine…" she said, waving her hands in the air like a maniac.

Yuki only laughed knowing she was lying. He sat next to her and placed a hand on her forehead.

" You sure you feel alright?" he asked once again, trying to get a strait answer from her.

" Yes!"

" Ms. Honda, you have a fever…." he said.

She didn't answer at first, only felt guilt take her over. " No really I feel fine!" she said trying to get Yuki to leave her alone.

" Tohru, if you don't feel fine just stay in bed. I think we can do things around the house for like what, 2 maybe 3 days." Kyo said, standing by her door way now.

" No, I couldn't ask you to do that. I mean, your letting me stay in the house. You must let me do something! I ca-"

Kyo had come into the room and pushed her down on the bed. " Shut up will ya! Just stay in bed for a little and get some rest. We can handle things. Now stay in the damn bed!" he said.

" Yes, of course. But I am so terribly sorry. I cant believe I got sick. I ju…" Tohru stopped talking when a sickening feeling filled her stomach again. She stood to her feet and ran towards the bathroom, slamming the door behind her.

Both Kyo and Yuki rushed to the bathroom. Asking questions, like " are you okay? Do you need anything?" things like that.

Tohru's only answer would be the sound of her throwing up. Making both Yuki and Kyo gage a little bit. After a while, both Yuki and Kyo were leaning against the wall, sitting on either side of the door. When they heard the water go on, they looked at the door, standing to there feet. Waiting patiently for her to come out.

The door slowly opened and Tohru came out, her arm wrapped around her waist. Her face was pail white, and she just looked horrible.

" I want to go to bed…" she said, passing by them and entering her room.

Yuki shook his head before going down stairs. Kyo only stood there, looking at Tohru from her doorway. He couldn't help but think it was his fault that she was sick. Because he made her stay on the roof with her. But when he had told her to go in, she didn't listen to him. But even thought he told himself these things, still the feeling of sorrowful filled his mind.

He watched as she took the blanket and laid down on her bed.

" Tohru, do you want anything?" Kyo asked, walking into her room.

Tohru turned to look at Kyo. She smiled softly.

She can still smile even though she is sick. She really is something… Kyo thought as he sat on the edge of her bed.

" Kyo-kun, you can get sick staying in my room like this…" she said.

" Well, I thought it might be good if you had some…eh…ah…company! And besides, it's the least I can do for you bringing me into me room last night…" he said, smiling back at her.

" Oh, I couldn't leave you on the floor all night. Besides, you struggled so hard to get me back to my room last night as well."

Kyo turned around quickly feeling the red rush to his face. " I would have been easy if I didn't always transform into a damn cat."

Tohru only laughed a little. " That's okay Kyo-kun. I like it when your in your cat form. You look cute…" Tohru said, not even hearing her own words.

Once again Kyo could feel his cheeks flush with red. When he felt as if he wasn't red anymore, turned around and looked at her. She way lying down, her eyes closed and her breathing heavy. Sweat was dripping down the sides of her face.

" I'll be back, okay?" Kyo said leaving the room and going down stairs.

" what's wrong with her?" Kyo asked as he saw Shigure on the phone.

" I'm not sure. Shigure is calling Hatori over now. So, I guess we'll find out soon." Yuki said, a grin on his face.

Kyo sighed, walking to the sink. He grabbed a wash clothe and soaked it. He went back up stairs, getting a cold stare from Yuki, and went back into Tohru's room. He placed the cloth on her forehead, and sat next to her. She had fallen asleep, and was still breathing unbelievably heavy. Making Kyo worry a little.

Only an hour later did Hatori show up at the house. He made his way to Tohru's room, and did every thing he needed to do. Kyo and Yuki had both waited outside of her room, Yuki just making sure she would be okay. And Kyo making sure she was okay.

" She'll be just fine." Hatori said walking out of the room. " She just has a really bad fever. But she should be fine by the end of this week…" He said leaving them be.

" Good thing school just ended," Yuki said wondering what Tohru would do if she had to stay out of school for a week.

Kyo didn't take much knowledge to what Yuki had just said. Even though Hatori said she would have been fine he still felt worried about her.

" Stupid Cat, you should get some sleep."

" Shut up you damn rat!" Kyo said leaving Tohru's room and entering his a little up the hallway.

Yuki laughed slightly under his breath. Knowing that Kyo was worried about Tohru always seemed funny to him. Even when it was over something serious, Yuki would always laugh. He just thought it was cute how someone with such a intolerable attitude could care for someone so much. And hide it so well sometimes. Even thought right now he was hiding anything to good. Only his own guilt.
