Deaths Tender Kiss

Chapter 2: Dreaming of Death

Ayame slowly walked into the hosptial, his hair dripping from the falling from an interrupted shower. Spotting his cousin and Tohru, he slowed his pace even more, holding his breath. "How bad is he?" asked Ayame, standing infront of them, trembling. "Not good." said Hatori, looking up at his distraught cousin, from his chair. Ayame plopped down in a chair, exhaustion taking over his body. Tohru quietly watched the rain fall down the windowpane, her grief making her usual optimism gone from her.

' What if he never wakes up?' thought Tohru, her lower lip quivering, uncontrolably. Ayame sat next to her, his head tlitted back, his golden eyes open. "Ayame-san, what if he never wakes up?"asked Tohru, tears slipping over the rims of her dark brown eyes. Ayame stared at her, his body tensing at her words. " Lets not talk about that, okay, Tohru-kun, lets just not talk about that." said Ayame, though his eyes told of a terrible decision. Tohru nodded, wiping away her fallen tears. "You should try to get some sleep, Honda-kun."said Hatori, running his fingers through his raven hair. Tohru nodded, smiling tiredly.

As darkness eneveloped her, strange images springing into the darkness, disappearing as they came. But one image stayed, haunting her, calling to her in her sleep. Only the outline could be seen, but what she saw made tears brim on the edges of her eyes. Her mother in a hospital bed, hooked up to many machines, helping her breath, the air she had once breathed freely. A sob echoed across the darkness, as the image slowly morphed into Yuki, his own air being forced in and out of his already damaged lungs.
His beatiful grey eyes were closed, his pale face matching the sheets that eneveloped him; around him stood the entire zodiac,even the cat, tears in their eyes as Ayame reached for the plug that generated the resporator, his pale hand shaking uncontrolably, tears streaming down his cheeks. "No!" Tohru screamed, jolting up in her sleep.

Hatori and Ayame looked at her, quizzical expressions laced with worry etched onto their adult faces. " Whats wrong, Tohru-kun?" asked Ayame, tilting his head to the side.
Tohru was breathing heavily, her mind racing. ' What did the dream mean? Why did I have that dream?' Tohru thought, as Hatori gave her a cup of water. Taking that cup gratefully, Tohru drank, letting the cool water run down her throat, cooling her internally. " Maybe you should go home."said Hatori, taking the emptied cup. Tohru shook her head, her long brown hair swaying back behind her back. "I dont want to go home." said Tohru, swallowing back the lump forming in her throat. Ayame gently placed his hand on Tohrus shoulder, turning her slightly to look at him. "You might not want to, Tohru-kun, but what do you think Yuki would say to your staying here?" said Ayame, holding her face in his hands. Tears formed in Tohrus eyes, as she stared into Ayames golden orbs, nodding. "Thats a good girl, now, Hatori will take you home, okay."said Ayame, gripping the young girls fragile hands. Tohru shook her head, her tears flying onto the seat. " I dont want to burden you."sobbed Tohru. Ayame shook his head, a sad smile formming on his face. " Its no burden to us, Tohru-kun." said Hatori, his eyes softening slightly.
Tohru nodded, allowing herself to be lead to Hatoris car.
