O.o I was rereading my chapter one.. and I realized I left out the visit to Shishou's house. :D I hope none of you guys were looking forward to that. - I plan to include it somewhere along the lines.

Here is the latest chapter, which I finished about an hour ago. Please read and review.

"What? The dance is tonight!" Kyo yelled. "My god. That went by fast." Throughout the weeks he had gotten his tuxedo and gotten everything ready. He stared at the calendar in the kitchen.

"Good morning, Kyo-kun! I see you're up early." Tohru came in and headed to the fridge to start breakfast.

"Did you know that the dance is tonight?" He turned to face her.

"Yes. Kyo-kun, didn't you know? The announcements said it every day." She pulled out some eggs. Tohru giggled a bit to herself. She had been counting down since the day Kyo asked her.

"I guess I just forgot. I was so caught up in other things." He smacked himself in the head. Tohru laughed.

"Are you going to the dojo today, Kyo-kun?" She cracked the eggs into a bowl and started to stir. Kyo stared at her for a second before realizing that she had asked question.

"What? Oh. No, I'm not going today. I have some stuff to do." He sat down at the table. He still had to get Tohru's corsage. He had ordered a while ago.

"I also have some things to do, but I'm going to be home all day preparing. Hana-chan and Uo-chan are coming over to help me get ready," her face sunk a bit, "It's a shame that they will not be attending the dance." She began to scramble the eggs over the skillet.

"I'm sure they'll be fine." They ate breakfast while discussing the dance. Yuki was out doing some last minute tuxedo and corsage shopping. Shigure was in his study working on his manuscript.

Later Kyo left to go pick up Tohru's corsage. The doorbell rang a few minutes after Kyo left.

Tohru went to get the door. "Tohru! Hey!" Arisa greeted her friend. She gave her a big hug.

"Welcome Uo-chan! Hana-chan!" Saki appeared from behind Arisa.

"Are you prepared, Tohru-kun?" She removed her shoes and the three had started up the stairs towards Tohru's room.

Tohru showed them the dress that Ayame had made her. They then began to primp Tohru. Saki did her hair while Arisa gave her a manicure.

Kyo had returned from running his errands. Yuki returned just before him.

"So, stupid cat. Are you excited yet?" Yuki put Machi's corsage into the fridge.

"Yeah. So what?" Kyo put Tohru's in there also.

"You better take care of Honda-san. I don't want her coming home in tears." He started to head up to his room.

"Same to you, rat! Take care of the girl who doesn't even know you!" Kyo couldn't really think of any good insults. He was too excited. He headed up his room, passing Tohru's on the way. He could hear them talking. He smiled a bit.

Saki was pulling at Tohru's hair while Arisa was telling them about the encounter with Kureno. "He kissed me! I couldn't believe. I thought I was going to beat the crap out of him and then I get kissed. Life is so strange." She finished Tohru's manicure and sat on her bed.

"Oh dear. Arisa is a fallen woman." Saki smiled a bit and finished with Tohru's hair.

"I'm so glad you got to see him again, Uo-chan! From what you said it sounds like he wanted to see you really bad." Tohru smiled at her two friends.

"C'mon Tohru. Let's get you into that dress." They pulled it out of the box and began helping her dress.

Just then they heard a knock on the door. "Ladies! Please hurry with Tohru-kun. Her date is getting impatient downstairs." Shigure laughed to himself.

"She's almost done!" Arisa called out. "Let's do the finishing touches." She said to Tohru. She started to put some make-up on her.

"Well, where is she?" Kyo asked as Shigure came down the stairs.

"Calm down, Kyon-kichi. The best things come to those who wait." Shigure chuckled and headed into his study. Kyo pulled on his collar. The nerves were getting to him.

He heard steps coming down the stairs. His head shot up to see Arisa and Saki. "Don't worry, Orangey. She's coming." She pat his shoulder and stood behind him. "C'mon down, Tohru!" She yelled.

Kyo looked eagerly up the stairs. He saw her feet. Tohru came down the stairs. A blush across her face. She came down the rest of the stairs and stood in front of Kyo. Her dress was a floor-length strapless pink gown with a line of sequins under the bust. Her hair was up in a bun. Strands of her hair fell into her face. She smiled at Kyo.

He was speechless. He couldn't believe that this was the same girl he had asked to the dance. "You… you look great." He smiled nervously. Tohru blushed.

"You look handsome, Kyo-kun." His black tuxedo was so dashing on him. Tohru had never seen him look so good.

Arisa and Saki glanced at each other. "We'll be going now." Arisa said.

"Thank you so much, Uo-chan! Hana-chan!" She gave them both a quick hug before they left.

Kyo coughed. "Here. This is for you." He held out the corsage. She gasped. It was a white rose with baby's breath around it. She held out her arm and he slipped it on her. His hand slightly grazing hers. His body tingled. "Shall we go?" He offered his arm and she slipped hers through. They got to Hatori's car. He let them borrow it for tonight.

They drove to the dance in silence. Both were very nervous about tonight. Kyo was going to confess to Tohru and this was Tohru's first dance. She was very excited since it was with someone she really liked. Almost loved.

They arrived at the dance and entered into the gym. Lots of people were already there. Heads turned when they saw Tohru and Kyo walk in arm in arm.

Music was playing. People were dancing. Tohru spotted Yuki chatting with Machi. He spotted her and slightly waved. He then went back to talking with Machi.

Kyo led her to a table. They sat and began chatting about things. Tohru talked about the man Arisa had met. Kyo hadn't noticed really what she was saying. He was concentrating on how he would confess to her. He wanted it to be perfect.

"Kyo-kun?" She laid her hand on his. "Are you alright?"

"What? Oh god. I'm sorry. I was zoning out again." Tohru tilted her head to the side and stared at him.

"I asked if you would like to dance with me." She pulled her hands into her lap and stared at them. He grabbed her hands.

"Let's go." He smiled at her and pulled her onto the dance floor. The song playing was a slow love ballad.

Kyo's hands went around Tohru's waist. He had to be careful so he didn't transform. Tohru carefully laid her hands on his shoulders. They began to sway to the music. Kyo's eyes were locked on her. He didn't want to ever look away. Tohru smiled and blushed slightly at him.

They danced for about three more songs. Kyo actually was dancing to the music. He laughed. Tohru looked like she was having so much fun.

Kyo grabbed her hand and began to lead her outside into the school courtyard.

"It was so hot in there! I'm having so much fun!" Tohru waved at her face to cool down. "Are you having fun, Kyo-kun?" She smiled at him.

He smiled back. "I'll always have fun when you are with me." She blushed and smiled back at him. "Tohru? I want to tell you something."

"Yes, Kyo-kun?" She stepped towards him a bit. He took one of her hands.

"I… love you." He stared at the ground. Tohru stared at him wide eyed. He loved her! A big smile crept onto her face.

"Kyo-kun," she lifted his face to hers, "I believe that I love you also." She blushed and stared at the ground. Kyo could see the redness of her face through her hair. He softly caressed her cheek with his hand and leaned in for a kiss. She kissed him back. He pulled her against him wanting to taste more of her. His eyes blinked open. He was holding Tohru and he hadn't transformed.

He pulled apart from her quickly. "What the hell happened?" He had gone from an ecstatic mood to a quite confused one.

"Kyo-kun! Your curse! Is it gone?" She stared at him, her brown eyes wide.

"Only one way to find out." He grabbed her and hugged her tight. He didn't change into a cat. He just remained the same. He let go of her. "What the…?"
