Fruits Basket: Memories

Chapter Nine: Confronting Kyou

I do not own Fruits Basket and the characters that I use, except for the various OCs that you have already confronted. Thank you, and don't sue.

Kagura walked out of the room, her heart racing as she wanted to remember this boy she had met; if he really was the cat of the zodiac well… perhaps she may have been wrong. Besides if Haru was right – then the only way to get to know this Kyou is to get to talk to him herself. Tohru had pointed out which room was Kyou's so Kagura ended up standing outside for around ten minutes, her hand clutched into a fist at her chest as she almost screamed out in a cry as she was so nervous – though she hadn't the foggiest idea why she was nervous: she then raised the hand to the door and knocked on the wooden frame next to it. She gulped as she watched the door open and the orange haired male fuming crimson eyes at her. She backed away slightly as his eyes softened realising it was her. What was he doing? He was angry that he had someone go to his door? Well Haru did say that Kyou was the kind of boy who wasn't very social.
"Kagura…" So he obviously knew her. He knew her name anyway and the tone of voice he used was one you'd use with someone you knew. She just smiled – in a weird way anyway. "What do you want?" His voice was nasty again, the same tone she had heard him use earlier.
"I wanted to get to know you. Everyone else seems to know you… I just don't know or can't remember if I know you." Kagura replied in a way which said she didn't know what to do or say next. She was just so nervous and it obviously shown. "I get the feeling that I knew you once… but my memory seems to be on the blink." Kyou turned towards the person behind Kagura, he saw Yuki standing there waiting for him to mess up probably.

Kyo narrowed his eyes; Kagura just moved back slightly seeing his expression change.
"Oh… I'm sorry that I bothered you then." Kagura said as she stood up tall and started to turn around to walk again.
"No, get in here – you can get to know me then." He was trying not to shout though it wasn't exactly working as she felt him trying his hardest though. Kagura smiled, nodded then walked through to his room. Kyo shut the door behind her and looked at Yuki with a look to kill. Who was he kidding; he was never going to be able to befriend Yuki. Yuki sighed as he looked at the door,
"Don't you hurt her? I swear - one stupid word and I'll send you flying through the roof." Kagura was leaning against the door and was listening to what they were saying; she couldn't believe that Yuki could say something like that. She slid the door open with full force her grey eyes wide as she spoke sincerely yet in a shocked way:
"Don't you do that, I'm sure he won't hurt me, Yun-chan." Kagura explained. "I won't let him for a start though I'm sure he'll be nice to me." Yuki was shocked; she was defending Kyou, even though she didn't know him. "I'm getting the feeling your not friends. It's a shame really because I like you both so much… even if I don't know Kyou-kun so much…" She trailed off… did she just say Kyou-kun, it just rolled off her lips as if she had said that before… She covered her lips as the two males looked shocked. They realised what she said too. "I just… want you to be friends." She said tears forming in her eyes trying to cover up what she said before as she rushed out of Kyou's room and down the stairs, out the front door. The others just looked at her as through the window as she started to run through the woods.

"Well if she wants us to be friends." Kyou started when Yuki punched him hatefully spitting:
"Don't even say it." He said brushing his hand which is a fist with the other as Kyou lay on the ground rubbing his cheek.
"YEAH WELL I WOULDN'T WANT TO BE YOUR FRIEND!" Kyou said as he stood up his hands in the shape of fists.
"Funny, I thought it was you who was the one about to suggest it." Yuki smiled as Kyou slammed his door after he went into his room.
"You know… I think Kyou-kun wanted to be friends with you just so he could try and befriend Kagura-san and try to find her memories." Yuki slightly turned his head to Tohru who was standing beside him with a tray of tea. "I think that's very admirable – how he could put all your differences aside and try to help the one he loves." Tohru nodded as she smiled her trademark. "Don't you think?" Though Yuki only had think about that. He had heard something from Kagura too, something that made him wonder – who made it that way, so the cat and rat from the zodiac were enemies – who made it so he and Kyou had to be the same way? They were being so stereotypical.

"Well anyway, do you want some tea?" Yuki just looked at Tohru. She was saying something so serious to going and saying that? Well anyway, yeah he was thirsty. The rat took the cup of the tray and placed it to his lips and drunk some of the liquid. "I wonder if Kyou-kun would want some."
"I won't think about going in there if I was you. I'd be licking his wounds… he had just said some of the worst things he could have ever said in his life…" Yuki smiled as he walked into Tohru's room where Momiji and Haru were waiting to have a drink of tea seeing as it was the rabbit who suggested it in the first place.
