Conflictions – Chapter 2- Regretful Lies
Due to a serious bladder problem, Kyo was walking down the hall, hands in his pockets as he made his way toward the bathroom. His head still vaguely whirling with emotions that he didn't understand, mainly his feelings toward Yuki. Kyo sighed and reached for the door to the bathroom. He stepped inside, moving to the sink where he turned on the hot water. After washing his hands, Kyo went to dry them, but froze when he saw Hatsu standing somewhat behind him. Kyo attempted to ignore the Cow…and moved over to the automatic dryers. He turned it on, placing his dripping palms under the heat.
Hatsuharu followed, slamming his arm on one side of Kyo while the other was on Kyo's opposite. He stared down at him and gave Kyo a look that would make anyone nervous. The cat's eyes narrowed, and he instantly snarled.
"What the hell?" He glared up at the younger Sohma, who was only a little bit taller than himself. He paused at the look he received, and blinked, confused. "Hatsu?"
"Stay away from him…" Haru hissed through snarling lips, eyes boring down into the cat's own. "Stay away from Yuki." With a simple movement Hatsu placed his leg up between Kyo's legs, pushing his knee against a certain area. The cat gasped, a snarl crossing those soft tiers of his. However instead of snapping the orange-top simply closed his eyes, growling a warning.
"You're not pushing me away Kyo…" Hatsuharu licked his upper lip, finding interest in this now. "What's wrong, enjoying this are we?" Black Haru. Hatsu held that murderous smile he only achieved once in this "black" state, surely unaware of what he was doing. Kyo gasped again, another snarl crossing his features.
"L-Let go you bastard!" The cat pressed his hands against Hatsuharu's chest, shoving him backward in a quick thrust that knocked Haru against the wall. The mismatched teen snarled, about to fight back when he turned back, shaking his head. He looked to Kyo, who was against the wall, panting and snarling at him.
"You turned black and came after me." He snapped, pushing past Hatsu and walked out of the bathroom, hand on his forehead, thinking of what Hatsu had said. …He's right though…I probably should avoid Yuki. It would be the best…for me anyway. I can easily get away from him; all I have to do is stay away from Tohru.
It wasn't until around five o'clock did the Sohmas gather at Shigure's house. Kyo was in his room, sitting on his mattress and attempting to will away these thoughts and feelings he was dealing with at the moment. Head bowed into his hands, which were held up by his folded legs. He could hear them in the background, laughing, squealing and talking amongst them selves. He was offered to go eat and enjoy the night with everyone else…but he couldn't bring himself to sit in front of them and act as if nothing had changed. Nothing has…No. That was a lie. Bare feet tapped against the hard wood flooring as he moved to the balcony, moving out into the open air. Scarlet eyes scanned the starry abyss, silently admiring the sight before him. 'You stupid cat', 'Oh, hello Haru', 'Momiji what are you doing?' Kyo's mind inundated with the rat's voice…his smiling face, his angry amethyst hues, and the warming smile he only gave to Tohru. Kyo fell to his knees, hand against his chest, the other on his head, wincing. Damn you…damn you, you stupid rat…
"Where's Kyo?" Momiji looked around, a cup of green tea in his hands, canting his head to the side. "Is he alright?" He took a sip of the tea, smiling at Tohru. "It's wonderful Tohru!" The blonde looked at Haru, who was close to Yuki of course.
Hatsuharu looked up at the mention of the orange-haired teen and simply shrugged, lacing his arm around Yuki's left limb. He clung to the other male while eating with his free hand. He offered to feed Yuki, who refused and shook his head. Hatsu's arm tightened on Yuki's own, silently announcing that he was going to feed him. "Oh come on Yuki, I insist." When Yuki sighed but nodded he placed a bit of rice, with the help of chopsticks, to Yuki's mouth with a smile. "Open up."
Momiji was getting pretty concerned about Kyo by now, and looked over at Yuki, anxiety filling his eyes. "Hey, Yuki?" The young blonde shifted on the pillow he was sitting on, fixing his gaze into those deep purple pools.
"Yes Momiji?" The rat answered while being fed by Haru.
"…Can, can you go check on Kyo for me?" Momiji's eyes held worry as Yuki stared into those golden gems for a few seconds before nodding and pulled away from Hatsuharu.
"I'll be back soon." Little did Yuki know that Kyo was having a major breakdown…and it would take more than words to comfort him in this situation. Yuki silently walked down the hall, up the stairs and over to Kyo's room. He rudely walked in, eyes widening as he saw the cat out on the balcony, leaning over the edge…about to let go.
"Kyo!" Yuki stood there dumbfounded as he saw the Sohma, on the bridge of committing suicide... or so it looked. The amethyst-eyed boy stepped forward, a few more steps until completely stopping.
"Stay back you stupid idiot! You dumb-ass rat leave me the fuck alone!" Kyo's head whipped over his shoulder, tears streaming from his ruby eyes. Yuki was the last person he wanted to see him like this. Kyo fell to his knees again, leaning against the railing.
"Kyo? Why are you acting like this?" He wasn't…well, yes, he had to admit he was worried…but why? Wasn't he supposed to hate the cat? Wasn't he constrained to loathe and mistrust the other male? It was supposed to be like this, wasn't it? Is this pity I feel? Is this sympathy I feel?
"It's none of your damn business!" He screamed in sorrow, hands tightening on the bars of the railing. Kyo slowly stood, turning his head back over his shoulder.
"Leave me alone…you…you…stu-stupid." Kyo's vision became blurry, and soon the floor came rushing up to meet his face as he collapsed against the wood at Yuki's feet. Kyo's breakdown was taking its toll now as he lay there, unconscious and exhausted. Not only that but his face was lightly red, probably from either crying, or he had a fever.
Yuki looked down at the cat, sighing and hesitated before walking to Kyo's door and turned his head over his shoulder, looking at the fallen boy. With a simple sigh he walked out, shutting the door behind him.
A/N: Again I'm sorry if I went a bit OOC with Kyo and Yuki, and Hatsuharu. I'm not perfect. x.o Please review!
