"So he wants her gone now." He looked up from his book slowly.
Kyou shook his head "Just wants me to stop seeing her..."
He nodded lightly. "She'll be crushed."
Kyou sighed, "That is why I said no to Akito"
"So when will you be going to the cage? Is it still after high school?"
Kyou shook his head "For a price I... Get out till collage"
"What's the price?"
Kyou shivered "Don't ask..."
She walked in silently keeping her head down as she placed the tray of food on the table. "...I'm not feeling to well I'm going to lay down for a little bit." Kyou blinked then watched her with sad eyes. She walked up the steps quickly sliding her door shut. She walked up the steps quickly sliding her door shut. Kyou ate a bit of lunch his head. low
"...Do you think she heard us...?" Shigure looked up from where he was eating.
Kyou shrugged "Maybe..." She pulled the curtains closed so the sunlight would not enter as she lay down slowly on her bed on top of the blankets. Kyou sighed closing his eyes
"You better check on her in awhile Kyou-kun."
Kyou shook his head "you or Yuki do it... I want to sleep" he got up walking to his room. He looked down shaking his head. Yuki eating quietly still. Kyou lay on his bed falling asleep. She came back down after awhile going into the kitchen starting dinner as she chopped the vegetables slowly dumping them into the boiling water.
Yuki walked to Tohru then sighed, "You ok?"
She nodded lightly. "...Is Kyou-kun asleep now?"
Yuki nodded "Hai... I think... I think he was hurt Tohru.."
She looked down slowly. "...I need to talk to Shigure-San... Can you make sure Kyou-kun doesn't come near us?"
Yuki blinked then nodded "Mhmm."
"Thank you Sohma-kun." She smiled at him kindly as she put the stew on low to boil as she went into the other room. Kyou slowly opened his eyes shivering.
She sat down across from Shigure slowly looking down. "I want to go talk with Akito-san." Yuki walked to the outside of Kyou's room waiting for the other to come out.
Shigure blinked then shook his head "Sorry Tohru-san but... I can't let you"
"...Please I need to talk to him and I can't get on the grounds without you beside me." She kept her eyes down.
Shigure sighed, "What do you want to talk to him about?"
"...I'm not sure yet to be honest..." She looked to him slowly. "Please can you take me there."
Shigure sighed, "If I do Kyou would kill me"
"I have Sohma-kun watching the door. Just tell him your taking me to a market."
Shigure sighed closing his eyes"... Fine"
"Thank you Shigure-san." She stood slowly bowing to him as she returned to cooking.
Shigure sighed "But after dinner at least!
"I know I won't leave you all with empty stomach's." She giggled softly. Shigure sighed then went back to his paper.
She poured the warm liquid into bowls placing them on a trey heading into the dinning area setting them out for each person soon going to where Yuki was watching. "Dinner is ready Sohma-kun tell Kyou-kun if he's awake, ...if he's asleep let him be..."
Kyou walked out of the room "I'm awake."
She nodded lightly looking down. "I made stew since its been chilly outside." She moved back into the kitchen trying to keep her eyes from Kyou. Kyou nodded blushing as he followed her to the dining room. Yuki followed the two rubbing his eyes. She sat down after getting tea and bread from the kitchen to go with their stew. Kyou was sitting beside Yuki glaring at the rat. She looked up from her stew giggling a little.
Kyou blinked at her "Huh?"
She shook her head. "Nothing." She pulled a slice of bread for her. Kyou blinked then started eating. She finished her meal quickly waiting for the others so she could clean up.
Kyou finished his then walked to his room. Yuki finished then smiled. "That was great miss Honda!"
She blushed lightly smiling lightly. "I put leeks in your stew it probably made it more lively." Shigure looked up smiling a bit as Tohru started cleaning off the table. Yuki blinked then nodded smiling.
"Shigure is going to take me into town to the market to get a few things. It won't take long."
Yuki nodded "Hai... Be careful Miss Honda" He got up walking away. She nodded lightly as she walked into the kitchen cleaning up. Shigure looked at her "If you want to go we should go now... The boys can clean while we're gone." She nodded lightly setting everything down slowly following him. Shigure got up and walked to the door opening it. Walks out first waiting for him to lead the way to the Sohma estates.
Shigure walked along to the estate then walked to Akito's room "there" She nodded lightly as she walked up slowly knocking on the door.
Akito glared "Who's there?"
"Tohru Honda." She spoke softly.
Akito glared "And you want what?"
"I want to talk to you about Kyou-kun... Can I come in please..."
Akito blinked then nodded "Yes but make it fast wench. She slide the door opened then closed as she sat in front of him.
Akito glared at her "well... Talk"
"... Please reconsider locking Kyou-kun away. He doesn't deserve that kind of treatment."
Akito glared at her "If that's all then leave... Kyou will be out in the cage tomorrow for your pestering me"
Her head lowered. "Akito-san I am willing to do anything to keep him from that kind of punishment."
Akito chuckled "He already gave me sex Honda... Now leave"
She kept her head lowered. "... I'd more just to keep him out..." She shook slowly now her eyes closed.
Akito blinked at her "Huh?"
"I told you I'd do anything... I'll even take his place..."
Akito glared "the cat is the cat and is going into the cage nothing is stopping me!"
"Please he is kind to everyone he shouldn't be punished because of the curse."
Akito growled "Do you like where you are staying Honda!"
She nodded slowly. "I want to keep Kyou-kun there as well he is part of my family I wouldn't have come if I didn't care for him."
Akito blinked then smirked "Never see Kyou again.. And He'll never go in the cage.. get him to move to the estate and he'll never go in the cage"
"But it's still an imprisonment!" She looked to him sadly.
Akito blinked "You love him... You love the cat don't you!" She looked away slowly.
Akito smirked "Fine... you bring him here tomorrow... You both are under my orders.. You will do anything to him as I say got it!"
She looked down slowly. "...Then he can be free if we come just tomorrow..."
Akito blinked then shook his head "you both will come here for a week... Do as I say... Then he'll never step foot in the cage."
She nodded lightly. "...I will try my best to bring him the next few days... You know as well as I do that he is stubborn..."
Akito smirked "Then hear this out.. You miss even one day.. I'll put him in the cage"
She nodded lightly. "...If he doesn't show then I will Akito-san..."
Akito smirked then nodded. "Leave"
She stood slowly nodding as she bowed. "...Thank you Akito-san..."
Akito sighed "Just go.. and when you come back tomorrow.. Wear something sexy." She nodded lightly as she walked back out sliding the door closed.
Shigure looked at her with angered eyes "Why are you doing this?"
"...Kyou-kun would not worry about the cage... and we will still see each other... the family will still be together..."
Shigure shook his head sighing "Tohru... your a fool..." She kept her head down as she started to walk back.
Shigure followed her "Akito's only going to make you watch While he hurts Kyo"
She made sure she was out of the estate. "...I told him I would come even if Kyou-kun wouldn't... He's safe that's all that matters now..."
