And this is the last I've written so far.. but I already know what I'm going to write.. so.. I guess I'll get it soon. You must leave me reviews, it's killing meeee! I'm like.. thinking "OMG, THEY MUST HATE MY STORY!" all Ritchan-san-like. Bleh.. so, here's the next chapter..
Tohru's eyes opened slowly. It was bright, too bright for what she was used to, as if she had been in the dark her whole life. She blinked a few times, as her focus came into view. There were three people in the room that she could see. Yuki, Kisa, and Kagura, were all there, seated in different chairs. She couldn't tell if they were asleep or not. Where was she? She looked around, and noticed she was in a bed, surrounded by plain white walls on three sides, and a curtain dividing the room in half. 'I'm.. in a hospital?' She questioned to herself.
"Ah.." She winced, as she felt the back of her head. There was a huge bump there, a little smaller then her palm. Her small cry of pain alerted the three that she was awake.
"Onee-chan!" Kisa yelled excitedly. Her eyes were red and puffy, as if she had been crying for a while. She ran over to Tohru, and reached over the bed to embrace her in a hug. The other two, Kagura and Yuki both were up from their seats too. Only Yuki bothered to give her a cheerful smile.
"Honda-san.. how are you feeling?" Yuki asked, He walked over and put a hand on her shoulder.
"I'm fine, really! My head just hurts a bit, but I'll be perfectly fine!" She smiled a bit. "Um.. are the others here?"
Kagura was the only one not smiling. Her eyes, just like Kisa's, were red and puffy, but he sleeves were soaked, possibly from tears. "You've been out for days, Tohru. Everyone's at school, or working.. but we've stayed here the whole time."
"WHAT!" She said a bit loudly, which made her wince again. Her head really was starting to hurt. "Oh, you didn't have to miss school just for me! I'm sorry for making you all worry!" Still, she was very happy that everyone was worried about her though, which meant they cared deeply for her.Kisa shifted to sit on her lap, and Tohru placed her arms around her lovingly.
"Look what everyone brought for you!" Kisa exclaimed. She pointed to the side-table next to Tohru's bed. There were around 20 get well cards, balloons everywhere, and a few wrapped presents filling the table. She didn't know why she didn't notice it before. 'I must remember to thank everyone!' She thought, happily. But her smile soon faded, as another thought struck her.
"Um.. if I may ask… Well, if you don't know, that's okay.. but, what happened?" She rubbed the bump on her head, which was starting to give her a slight headache. Their smiles faded, except Kagura's, who wasn't even smiling in the first place, but now looked as if she was going to break down and cry. Tohru noticed their sudden change in emotion, and immediantly apologized. "Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to say anything to offend you.."
Kisa shook her head, getting off of her onee-san's lap, and looked in the other direction, as if not wanting to be seen crying. Yuki was the first to speak.
"You fell, and hit your head on the sidewalk.." he said quietly. It seemed as if he was leaving something out.
"After Kyo-kun saved you." Kagura finished, rather coldly. "He pushed you away from an oncoming bus." Tohru suddenly remembered. She flashed back to when Kyo-kun had told her that he loved her.. then someone calling her name, and her being pushed after not being able to move, and then hearing a loud bang. It was a little hazy, but she could remember. 'It must have been Kyo-kun that saved me!' She thought to herself.
"Oh.. I must thank him right away! Is he at school?" She smiled brightly.
It was Kisa's turn to speak. "No… he's actually right in this room."
hmm.. I wonder where Kyo-kun is! it might be obvious.. but oh well! okay.. I don't think I'm going to post anymore, or maybe I'll just take down this story if I don't get any reviews soon! I'll give it a week, I guess.. but I'm getting so insecure about my story, that it's making me crazy. I am so hopeless! sob.
