I am sorry I left off there last chapter... I just had to... so I could name this chapter what it is... this isn't a real long chapter and chapter 6 is even shorter... (for good reason...) ummm... what else is there to say? Oh, Emily-san, please don't be mean in the reviews anymore... PLEASE? I know you are just kidding but don't do that... I actually don't have very much Japanese in this chapter but here is what I have...
Oyasami/Oyasami nasai: good night
disclaimer... don't own fruba... but I finally have the first three Mangas.. finally...
Kyou's POV
This is so awesome! I am sitting next to the girl that I love, and I just kissed her. could this night be any better? (You have no idea Kyou...)
"Do you really mean it? Do you really think that I am beautiful Kyou-kun?" she asked me.
"Of course you are. Why would I have said it to you if I didn't mean it?" I asked her, looking at her and smiling. She smiled that pretty little smile of hers.
"I don't know why you would have said that.. but no one's ever called me beautiful before..." she said. She looked at me with her big blue eyes and reached over and hugged me.
Poof!
"Oh I am so so so sorry! I didn't mean to do that! I really wasn't thinking!" she started talking really quickly!
"Calm down, Tohru, calm down. It's ok! I know you didn't mean to." I said. I jumped into her lap and she unconsciously started petting me... I started purring!
"Heh, Kyou, yo-you're-" she started.
I cut her off. "Purring, I know!" I said. I must have sounding embarrassed though because she said,
"Kyou, you don't have to be ashamed of purring! All cats purr."
"I'm not ashamed!" I yelled jumping up from her lap.
After a minute, I calmed down enough to sit back down. Right as I sat down, I changed back!
Poof!
"EEEEK!" she screamed.
"Can I have my clothes please?"I asked her. She had picked them up when I changed into a cat, and was still holding them.
"Oh! Here you go!" she said, holding them out away from her while still looking away.
I got dressed and sat back down next to her. I cleared my throat... there didn't seem like anything else to do.
"Did you want to say something Kyou?" she asked. I didn't say anything I just looked at her. She smiled at me. We sat like that for a while. I really love her... but what would she do if I told her? I could dealwith the rat if he got too jealous. But what if she got scared and stopped liking me? I don't know how I could handle that. She is the first girl that I have loved like this. "It's nothing." I said.
"What Kyou-chan?" she said. I guess she just wanted to see how I would react to that name.
"Nothing." I didn't want to tell her because I was scared.
"You can tell me Kyou-chan. I won't tell anyone. I promise." she said reassuringly.
Tohru's POV
Why isn't he telling me? He knows he can trust me.
"Tohru, I... I.. er.. I love.. you." he said quietly. If it weren't for our closeness, I wouldn't have heard him. I had been waiting for him to say that.
"I... I love you, too, Kyou-chan." I answered quiely. Almost as quietly as he had but not quite that quiet.
"OH! This is so adorable! The young lovers have confessed their love for each other. Oh, so very adorable!" said Ayame. He had snuck up on us.
"Damn snake! Get away from us!" yelled Kyou.
"Yeah, damn- (gasp) Oh! I'm so sorry Ayame! I didn't mean to curse! I really didn't! I'm so sorry Ayame! I almost called you... what Kyou-chan called you." I said quickly. How could I have cursed? I guess I have been around Uo-chan and Kyou-chan too long... heh... but still... Why did I curse?
"Tohru! Oh, dear! I am going to die! Hearing your pretty mouth say such a thing, and to me!" said Ayame dramatically.
"I am so sorry!" I said.
"It's ok! I know you didn't mean anything by it." he said. He looked really hurt! I hadn't meant to hurt his feelings!
"You just scared me, that's all." I said quickly. I tried to make him feel better but it wasn't working because Kyou-chan kept yelling at him to leave us alone.
"Oh, but you two are so meant for each other! How sweet... Kyon-Kyon and sweet sweet Tohru-kun! Don't you pollute her mind with bad things! I want Tohru to stay as sweet and innocent as she always has been!" he said. He was being so funny. I couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at? Don't you want him to leave us alone?" asked Kyou-chan. I didn't want to be mean to Ayame-san, but I also didn't want Kyou to get mad at me.
"He isn't really bothering me." I said finally.
"Well he's bugging the hell out of me!" said Kyou. He was starting to get annoyed with Ayame-san for bothering us when we were talking. It did bother me a little that he had heard what I said. What if he told Shigure-san or what if he told Sohma-kun? What would he do? He would probably be angry with me and Kyou. He is always mad at Kyou-chan but not me.
"Tohru-san, is something wrong?" asked Ayame. He had stopped talking about me and Kyou. I told him nothing was wrong.
"Well, ok. I guess I will leave you two here.. alone." he added the last word mischievously. Oyasami Tohru-kun." he said to me as he descended the ladder.
"Oyasami nasai, Ayame-san!" I replied.
When he got back inside, Kyou turned to me and he was just so cute I hugged him. Nothing happened. (yes.. his curse is broke...)
"Kyou! You didn't change! I-I hugged you and you didn't change!"
"Why the hell did you hug me in the first place?" he asked. I guess he didn't quite grasp the situation.
"Kyou, I, I think your curse is broken..." I said happily, hoping I was right.
"Hey! You're right! Let's just make sure. Hug me again." he said. So I wrapped my arms around his neck and he didn't change! I was so happy. I wonder what Akito would think... Wait, Akito didn't even know that we were going out!
"A... Akito... He doesn't know about us yet! We have to tell him. We hae to let him know that your curse is br-" I said quickly. Kyou-chan had cut me off.
"But..." I started again. He made it to where I couldn't talk. He had kissed me again. I was starting to like it alot. I wrapped my arms aroung his nack once more. I wanted this moment to last forever. It was so nice being able to hug the person that I loved...
"Calm down... Tohru-chan." he said. He sounded so sweet when he said my name like that... (sigh)
"Kyou? What do you think Uo-chan and Hana-chan will say when they hear about us?"
"Nothing because they don't have to know." he answered.
"But they are my best friends. I am supposed to tell them everything." I said. I wanted to tell them the good news... except they probably didn't think me and Kyou dating was good news.
"Let's just try to keep this a secret as long as we can." he said. He really didn't want anyone to know. I didn't either, but I at least wanted to tell my friends. I dropped the subject though because I could see that he was getting annooyed.
"Ok. Kyou-chan? When are we gonna tell the others? About your curse I mean." I was pretty sure that Ayame had already told Yuki that me and Kyou were finally dating.
"Let's surprise them. Tonight.. when Shigure gets home from his date with Ritzoko." he said.
"Ok! That's is a great idea!" I said. (she doesn't realize that the Prince is already asleep.)
Tohru's POV still..
We went downstairs and waited for Shigure-san and Riko-kun to get home. Ayame kept telling how cute we were together. I thought it was nice, butitkinda got annoying after a while. I didn't say anything to him because I didn't want to hurt his feelings, but Kyou-chan kept telling him to leave us alone. At about that instant, Shigure and Riko-kun walked in the door laughing.
"Did you two have a good time?" I asked them. They both started laughing again.
"Oh, good dear Aaya-san! You kept an eye on the flower and the cat!" said Shigure.
"Oh, yes of course I did! We don't want anything to happen to sweet Tohru!" said Ayame-san.
"What were they doing?" asked Shigure, not understanding that Ayame was kidding.
"We weren't doing anything! We were just sitting here waiting for your sorry ass to get home!" said Kyou-chan.
"Oh! 'Gure-san! You'll never guess what your little flower did!" said Ayame. Riko was just standing there looking back and forth between Shigure and Ayame. She looked really confused!
"Tohru-kun? Hmm... What, did she forget to make dinner?" asked Shigure.
"Yep! That's it!" I said. I didn't want him telling Shigure that I had cussed. I knew he was going to.
"That, and she... she... Oh, I just can't say it! It hurts!" he said dramatically, putting the backside of his hand on his forehead.
"Tohru-kun! What could you have possibly done that is this bad?" asked Shigure. He looked like he was going to have fun hearing this.
"I... er I... called him a..."
"She called him a damn snake!" finished Kyou. I thanked him for that mentally.
"Tohru, Oh, I am ashamed! How could you spoil such a pretty mouth as that?"
"Don't talk to her like that! It wasn't her fault! It was mine and Ayame's! It was mine for calling him that before she did. It was his fault for sneaking up on us!" answered Kyou.
"What is everyone yelling about? Especially you, you stupid cat!" said Yuki coming downstairs, half asleep.
"None of your business you damn rat!" said Kyou-chan.
"Yuki-kun! You're awake!" I said.
"Now is the perfect time..." I heard Kyou whisper into my ear.
"What are you two love-birds whispering about over there?" asked Shigure.
"Oh nothing!" I said, "How did it go, Shigure?" I asked him, hoping he would ask me how it was here at the house.
"Oh, it went great? What did you guys do while I was out?" said Shigure.
"We didn't do anything!" I said.
Then I wrapped my arms around himin an embrace that surprised everyone... including Riko-kun because being Ritsu's sister, she knew about the curse as well.
"Looks like you two have been up to something!" said Shigure.
"I wonder what did it!" said Ayame. Everyone was staring at us surprised. Even Yuki-kun looked awake! He was staring at us in disbelief.
"I don't know what it could have been! But isn't it great?" I asked excitedly.
"Oh, I am just so happy!" said Ayame. He cmae and huggedme without warning!
Poof!
"What? I thought that the curse is broken!" he said, laying in a heap on the ground entangled in his clothes.
I hugged Kyou again and he didn't change!
"Maybe it only worked on Kyou!" said Shigure-san. He looked sad.
"It's not my fault! I didn't even know that this was going to happen to Kyou-chan!" I said. I felt really bad that it hadn't done anything to the rest of them. Then it started making sense! He only didn't transform after Ayame started bothering us! Before that me and Kyou had been saying...
"Kyou! I know what did it! I know why it didn't do it for anyone else!" I said. I shouldn't have just said that out loud! Now everybody is gonna know what we were talking about on the roof. Well.. Ayame-san already knew, but that is different. As long as he didn't tell them... everything would be fine.
"What? What is it Tohru? Why did I change and Kyon-Kyon didn't?" asked Ayame.
'Poof'
"Oh, silly me! What was I thinking? I guess this whole thing has got my head all mixed up." I said. I hit myself on the forehead for good measure. Luckily, they fell for it.
"What were you thinking did this Tohru-kun?" asked Riko-san.
No one's POV
"Yes, yes come over straight away Haa-san! I have something important to tell you!" said Shigure in the hallway. He had snuck off to the phone to call Hatori about this. What if Hatori told Akito? What if Akito somehow knew that Kyou's curse and Kyou's curse only had been broken? He wasthe leader ofthe Sohma clan of course.He should know by now that something was going on.
"Damn dog! Get in here!" yelled Kyou. He was getting annoyed that everybody was makingsuch abig deal about this. It was a big deal, especially to him.I mean he was the cat after all. He had been shunned from society, and now, he had someone to love him... someone to break his curse. He was happy, because his curse was gone but annoyed because only his curse was gone. They still had to watch out. They could still slip up. Just because Kyou's curse was gone and he didn't have to worry, didn't mean anybody else's curse was gone. They could still be exposed. Of course Kyou didn't have to worry...
"What is it?" asked Shigure innocently. He was walking back into the living room when Kyou back him up against the wall.
"What do you think you are doing?" asked Kyou. Shigure could hear the anger in his voice as sweat fell from his black hair.
"I was just calling Haa-san over here to tell him the good news. Heh heh..." said Shigure nervously, wondering why Kyou was acting so upset.
"He will tell Akito! And you know what Akito is capable of doing! He could really hurt her! Then he could haveHatori erase her memories!" he yelled at the dog. Shigure just stood there looking nervous.
"My, my are you being protective!"
"Huh?" asked Kyou. He suddenly looked at where he was standing, confused about what was going on. "Why am I standing over here by you?" he asked, not sure of what to think.
"I don't know. You just came over and started yelling at me for callingHaa-san." said Shigure.
"He is the cat right?" asked Riko.
"Yes, well.. I was the cat... what does that have to do with anything?" asked Kyou.
"Well, cats are territorial. And that could have been what just happened and you didn't realize it." she said.
She was right. He could very well have been just acting territorial. He had done it in school one day...
"Oh, Kyon-kyon is so protective!" said Ayame.
"Shut up Ayame! And for the last time, don't call me Kyon-kyon!" he said angrily.
After Hatori got there...
"Oh Tohru is it true?" asked Momiji. He had wanted to come and see for himself if it was true or not.
"Sure is!" she replied with a huge grin on her face.
"Oh, I want to see! I wanna see!" said Momiji prancing around the living room.
"Ok Momiji!" said Tohru as she hugged Kyou tightlyaround the neck. he actually hugged her back this time.
"Oh it is true! It is!" he said happily. He sat down next to the two. (they were sitting on the couch.)
"Momiji, calm down please. You're going to give someone a headache." said Hatori.
"Oh, Hatori. You're so dull." said Momiji. He softly sighed.
"So you say that only Kyou doesn't change?"
"Yes, it is very strange." said Ayame.
"Why do you think this is?" asking them a question that nobody but Tohru could figure out.
"We don't know yet. We have been trying to figure it out." said Kyou.
"Hmm.. That is very odd." said Hatori, "I wonder why whatever it was only affected you..." he said to Kyou.
They all sat there pondering except for Tohru, who was thinking just about something else. She was wondering how she would tell Arisa and Saki. She looked just as full of thought as everyone else so no one suspected what she was thinking about.
She yawned and stood up to stretch.
"Well, I have school tomorrow so I am going to bed." she said.
Everyone else went to bed too. Momiji had fallen asleep on the couch and Riko was going to sleep in the living room. Hatori, Ayame, and Shigure all managed to find somewhere to sleep in the mess that Shigure called his room.
"Oyasami nasai, Kyou." said Tohru, yawning.
"Good night Tohru-kun." he said.
They both walked towards the stairs and met at the bottom and gave each other a kiss good night.
