A/n- Heartless here. This is my third work, the first two being mature DNAngel fics... but this one is toned down compared to my others. No characters are exactly given by name, but I expect it'll be obvious who's talking and such, especially if you read the "pairing(s)" part of my summary.

Disclaimer- I do not own Furuba,'cause if I did, Yuki/Kyo would be cannon...

Title- Sometimes

Pairing(s)- One-sided Yuki/Kyo, implied Kyo/Tohru

Rating- T simply for slight cussing and darker/deeper thinking

Warning- Shounan-ai


Sometimes it hurts, looking into your eyes and realizing, again, just how passionate out hatred is. Only sometimes, randomly, hitting me as if the idea were tangible, as if it knew when it would hurt the most. Looking into your eyes, and feeling emotion welling up within me... I feel myself hesitate. I know it's not much, but I wonder what would've happened in another reality. Another place, another time, where instead of hating you for our differences I could... oh, I don't know.

I know there must be something wrong with me, but I can't help but noticing that what my cousin once said is right. When I go to push you, I know I come a little too close. I've even felt your warm breath on my face before pushing you away. And no matter you're reaction, what I throw or what you curse... my mind is completely captivated by the moment where, for a second, I know our eyes met and you saw only me.

But my thoughts are wasted, I know. You will never look at me with anything but hatred, as it should be, as I should be. It's wrong to feel this way, even if it's only "sometimes".

Besides, I've seen the way you look at her. You play dumb, you try to fight it, but it's obvious in your eyes. When she's around, your eyes brighten, and I can see a happiness so foreign to your somber features. Happy that she is with you, talking with you. Caring for you when you thought it was impossible.

I don't see what's so special about the girl. She's not abundantly smart, or even pretty. Just a normal student with normal expectations... so why, with the world at your fingertips, do you chose her? What makes her different from everyone else?

Great. Now you've done it. Invaded my mind so completely that I've just degraded my best friend, my sister even. Oh, God, no...

I seriously need to stop thinking, need to stop this "sometimes" angst. I know tomorrow I'll hate you again. We'll fight, I'll leave you completely pissed, and I'll feel no regret.

But now, just for this moment, I feel myself bound to you. You had to have noticed by now, haven't you? You had to have seen something? Though I wouldn't be surprised if you deny the obvious. You're always so damn arrogant, quick to anger but with almost cat-like grace.

Well, listen up, kitten, and listen well: I LOVE YOU, YOU IDIOT!

...and yet, I know I'll never speak those words aloud, even if I "sometimes" wish I could.


So... tell me how it went. If you like it, that's cool. If you hate it, gomen. I wrote this as a Creative Writing assignment with the Yuki/Kyo pairing in mind... so that's why it doesn't have names. It's an original work, but used as a fanfic here. Hope you enjoyed it.
