Chapter 6

Make-over Confessional

"Kyo's got the hots this morning!" Yelled Momiji at the top of his lungs. Kyo opened his eyes angrily.

"You little punk!" he yelled, and began to chase after the mischievous rabbit. Tohru opened her eyes and smiled. Tonight's the dance Mom! I can't wait to go with Kyo! She smiled, stretched, and went into the kitchen to make breakfast. I'll make pancakes today as a celebration! Decided Tohru. She felt a hand on her shoulder. Turning around, she saw a yawning Kagura.

"Good morning, Kagura-Chan!" said Tohru sunnily. "Is Kisa-Chan up too?''

"Yes," Kagura replied sleepily. " She's playing tag with Momiji-Kun and Kyo-Kun."

"Ohh…Kagura-Chan! Your eyes are all swollen. Is something wrong?" Kagura looked sad for a moment, but her emotions cleared up when she saw Tohru's concerned face.

"No, I'm fine! Can I help you with breakfast?"

Tohru Smiled. "Yes. I'm making pancakes."

"Those will be yummy!" concluded Kagura, clapping her hands together. The two girls made enough pancakes to cover the house at least once.

"Yay! Pancakes! We get to eat Tohru-Chan's pancakes!" Momiji sang, taking a whole stack of them. Kyo, tired of chasing the hyperactive Momiji, sat down too.

"Good morning, Tohru!" he said cheerfully. "Did you sleep well?"

"What's this I smell? Ahh…the scent of young love wavers in the air!" said Shigure.

"No silly," said Kagura, sitting down next to Kisa. "It's pancakes that you're smelling."

"Baka inu," muttered Kyo.

"Oh, good morning Shigure-San!" said Tohru setting down a bowl of cut-up strawberries. "Is Yuki-Kun up yet?" At her very words, Yuki slowly stumbled into the dining room. Clearly, he was not fully awake.

"Oh, Hello Yuki-Kun!" said Tohru. Now that everyone was around the table, she said, "Help yourselves everyone! I hope you like it!"

"Pancakes is it now?" said Shigure curiously. "Might I inquire as to the occasion?" Tohru giggled.

"The pancakes are in celebration of the dance!"

"What dance?" asked Kagura, interestedly.

"Oh! The Valentine's Day dance tonight!" said Tohru happily.

"Do you mind if I help you get ready?" Kagura offered.

"Would you please?" said Tohru, suddenly catching Momiji's hyperness. "I have no idea how to look for a dance. You see, I've never really been to a dance before…" She looked slightly embarrassed.

"Well then," said Shigure. " Might I know who the lucky man is?"

"Um…Kyo…um…is…" said Tohru, very quietly. Everything stopped as everyone stared at Kyo. Tohru and Kyo blushed harder than ever.

"You're kidding!" said Shigure in shock.

"Do you think she would be?" Yelled Kyo angrily.

"No…" admitted Shigure. "Well, Lucky Kyo… how did this happen?" Shigure smirked.

"I told you to stop calling me that! And it's none of your damn business!"

"Um…who are you going with, Yuki-Kun?" asked Tohru to change the subject away from Kyo and herself.

"Well, Machi-San, from the student council asked me to go with her, so I said yes…" said Yuki calmly.

" Oh!" said Tohru. "You two make a cute couple!"

"Well, fun as this is, I must get back to my new novel…" said Shigure, taking his cup of tea into his study.

"I should do the dishes then, if you're done," said Tohru.

"Let me help you then, Tohru-San," said Yuki. The others, sensing that he wanted to be alone, decided to play a game of Rich Man, Poor Man.

"So, Tohru-San…" Yuki started. "You've chosen him then?"

"Yuki-Kun, I still like you the same as always, but, yes, I have chosen to go to the dance with Kyo-Kun." Tohru replied.

"If that makes you happy…"

The dishes were finished, but Yuki was still talking to her. He turned to look at her. He turned to look at her. His face was coming closer and closer to hers.

"…Then I am truly sorry that it was not me who could do so…" He kissed her on the lips, a soft, timid, barely there, kiss. He looked into her shocked eyes. "I'm…sorry…" and he left. She fell to the ground, putting a hand on her lips, where Yuki had just kissed her. Yuki walked back through the dining room.

"Baka-Neko," he muttered before climbing up the stairs and into his room.

"Hey," said Kyo. "Where's Tohru? She was with Yuki, right, so they must be done with the dishes now…"

"Maybe she's in the kitchen, still?" suggested Kagura.

"Go and get her Prince Charming!" said Momiji, shoving Kyo into the kitchen. He saw her crumpled form on the floor.

"Tohru?" asked Kyo. "What's wrong? Did that damn rat do something to you?" His fist clenched in anger. Tohru looked at him, blush creeping onto her cheeks.

"He…he k-kissed…me…" said Tohru. " But I don't like him…I like you…" she started crying in anxiety.

"C'mon," he said quietly. "Let's go somewhere quiet…" He held out his hand to her. She took it. He led her up to the roof, making extra sure she didn't fall off. Once he had her situated, he sat down next to her. He noticed she was shivering. He cautiously put an arm around her shoulders. She jumped a little, blushing, but didn't pull away. He looked at her in alarm when she took his other arm, making it so he embraced her from the side, but soon relaxed, blushing hard.

"Kyo…?" she asked timidly.

"Yeah?"

"I'm sorry. He just sorta cam at me, and it came out of nowhere, and-"

"Save it squirt." Kyo interrupted. "You love me right?" Tohru nodded. "Then that's all that matters." Neither of them said anything for a while. Finally, Tohru spoke up,

"Kyo?''

"Yeah?"

"Kyo…kiss me…please?" she asked, blushing. Kyo smiled.

"Anything." He kissed her forehead. They stayed snuggled up together until Kagura found them.

"Tohru-Chan! Hey Tohru-Chan! Come down for lunch and then we can start your make-over!"

"Okay Kagura-Chan! I'll be right down." She got up to leave, Kyo held her hand, keeping her from leaving. He pulled her in, and gave her a soft, warm, peck on the lips. Tohru's mind exploded.

"I love you…" he whispered in her ear, making her shiver slightly. She smiled nervously, blushing beyond any nameable color." Now you can go…" he said. She gave a small giggle.

"That was wonderful soumen, Kagura-Chan! You should cook more often!" said Tohru, full.

"And my house is in one piece! I'm greatly impressed!" said Shigure, setting down his chopsticks.

"Hey, Tohru-Chan," said Kagura. "Do you want to start your make-over now?"

"Um…may I help?" Kisa asked.

"Of course you can help, Kisa-Chan! Okay then, let's begin!" said Tohru cheerfully.

"Do you happen to have any nail polish?" asked Kagura.

"Um…Uo-Chan gave me a bottle once. Let me go find it," said Tohru, and hurried off to her bathroom. She came back with a small bottle of a soft, rose-colored polish.

"That's perfect, One-San!" said Kisa. Kagura nodded in agreement. The girls began on Tohru. They started with a manicure and pedicure, then moving on to a facial. Once Tohru's strawberry-seed mask was on, Kisa excused herself to go play hide-and-seek with Momiji.

"You know, Tohru-Chan?" started Kagura. "I did love Kyo-Kun. But I realized I loved him for all of the wrong reasons. I only loved him to make myself feel better. With the curse, everyday was torture. Life was unbearable. And then I met him. I met Kyo-Kun. And I realized his life made mine feel like I was a super-star or something. Everyone, even his own mother, hated him. I loved him…to make myself feel superior." Tears trickled down Kagura's face. "I'm a selfish pig, aren't I?"

"I don't think so, " said Tohru quietly. "I think everyone does things to make them feel better than others. But I also think that the love was real, was unselfish. Making up the excuses, to understand why, doesn't deny the fact that you did care, and you still do. "

"I…I do still love him…I love Kyo," confessed Kagura. Tohru smiled. "But…when Kyo-Kun said he didn't love me, couldn't love me, I gave up. I knew the charade had to end with my broken heart." Tohru sat up.

"Umm…I don't mean to break the mood, but could you please take this mask off? It's starting to itch." Tohru gave a wide, warm smile.

"I'm glad to know you comfortable enough to talk to me about things like this…" said Tohru.

"There you go! All done!" said Kagura, and smiled.

"Tohru-Kun!" Shigure called up the stairs. "Do you want to order out tonight?"

"Yes, Shigure-San! If it's okay with everyone else."

"Ah..full! Full! Full!" said Shigure, content.

"We should all probably start getting ready now…" suggested Tohru.

"yeah! Let's finish you up!" said Kagura, dragging Tohru upstairs.

After Tohru was finished and Momiji, Kisa, Kyo, Yuki, and Shigure were downstairs, Kagura called down the stairs,

"Presenting Tohru Honda…."
