Previously
"Damn it Kyo, you do too know," Yuki said. He took a moment before finishing. "I love you!"
"I know, and I don't care. So leave me alone," Kyo said turning away from him
"But, Kyo."
"I told you Yuki, I don't love you. I never did."
At that exact moment Yuki's world ended; his world went black.
Now
Over the next couple of days, basically their four day weekend, Kyo and Yuki totally avoided each other. On the last day of their break Tohru became extremely worried. It was around noon and Yuki was up in his room studying for a test and Kyo was outside training.
"I wonder what's up with these two," a certain dog asked not even looking up from his newspaper. "I thought they were together, but they seem even more distant now than they were when they thought each other was an enemy."
"I wish I knew, but all I saw was the aftermath of what happened," Tohru said as she sat there looking out at Kyo. Sorrow was seen filling her eyes. "I tried to help, but I couldn't. Whatever happened had already taken its toll and I don't think anything can bring them back together now."
Shigure looked up from his paper at Tohru. "It wasn't your fault you know; they probably just had a fight. I'm sure they'll be jumping on one another again soon," Shigure assured her with a smile.
"I think it was deeper than that Shigure," Tohru said. She couldn't look at Kyo anymore; pain hit her when she did. She looked down at her hands in her lap.
"What do you mean?" Shigure asked putting down his paper to listen to Tohru.
"These two, they have had fights before, remember? But they have never been this bad. They won't talk to each other, they won't look at each other, and they barely even acknowledge each other. I just wish what ever happened didn't." Tears were brimming at Tohru's eyes as she spoke.
"Tohru," Shigure spoke, "I'm sure it'll work out, just you wait."
"But you didn't see what I did." She wiped away a stray tear.
"What was that?"
Tohru looked up at Shigure. "Well, yesterday when we were walking in the mall……..
Flashback
The group watched Yuki take off after Kyo. "So, Uo, Kori what did you two say to him?" Tohru asked.
"He knows that Kyo is being distant but he isn't persistent enough by himself, so I pushed him a little," Uo explained.
"And I just told him to do what he felt was right. I can tell he really likes that orange head, to see those two go their separate ways won't be easy," Kori said.
"What do you mean go their separate ways?" Tohru asked.
"If those two ever break up, it won't be easy on either of them. It's going to hurt a lot," Tsuki said.
"You don't actually think that will happen do you?" Tohru asked the two boys.
"Who knows? Tsuki, here, and I have been together for," he looked at his partner, "Is it six months or seven?"
"It'll be seven in one week," Tsuki said.
"Right almost seven, but the point is during that time period Tsuki and I had fights, plenty of them too, but no matter how sticky things got we ended up back together." Kori looked forward, in the direction Yuki had gone, but he was out of sight. "I've only seen those two together for short times, but I'm sure they love each other, a lot."
"I hope your right," Tohru said.
"I bet those two found a nice secluded spot so they could do just that," Uo snickered.
Kori and Tsuki chuckled a little at Uo's comment, Tohru wasn't thinking dirty, and Hana just herself.
"Either way, we should follow them," Uo finished.
"Why, you said yourself, maybe we should let them be alone," Kori said, still laughing.
"No," Hana said. Everyone looked at the girl dressed in black when she spoke.
"What do you mean no?" Uo asked.
"We should follow them. I'm sensing something bad is about to happen, involving those two," Hana answered. She started walking forward. "Let's find them."
The group just shrugged and followed the physic. She led them down the stairs to the arcade and then to the outward entrance. She opened the door and walked a little ways before stopping. While they were walking they had heard shouts but it was quiet now. "Where are we?" Tohru asked.
"I told you I had a bad feeling," Hana said.
"What are you talking about?" Kori asked.
"Look for yourself," Hana said.
When the group looked they saw Kyo standing with his back turned to Yuki, who was stumbling backwards and fell down on his ass. Kyo didn't even offer to help Yuki up; he just moved his lips to something inaudible to the group and walked off. They all rushed over to Yuki's side. He was shaking a bit and his eyes were glazed over, tears pouring uncontrollably. He was mumbling something and Tohru leaned her ear near his mouth to hear it. His voice was shaky but Tohru could hear the words. "Kyo, you're just lying, it's not true. It's not true. It's not true."
Tohru, without even having to be told, knew what happened. And she was powerless to stop or take it back.
End Flashback
Tohru felt a few more tears come down her face as she finished the story to Shigure. "I couldn't do anything, but watch. What kind of friend am I?"
"Don't take it out on yourself. Whatever happened between those two will mend in time," Shigure assured her.
"Shigure, I think you're wrong," Tohru said. "For some reason, I think something forced Kyo to do whatever he did, but Kyo also had to make the decision to do it."
"Tohru?" Shigure asked. He was getting worried seeing her like this.
"I just don't know if I can take these two being like this," Tohru said.
Shigure's eyes softened upon the girl. "Tohru, why don't you go spend the night at your friend's house?"
Tohru looked up at Shigure. "What?"
"This is too hard on you, maybe, until you can calm down or if these two get together again you should stay at your friend's houses."
Tohru nodded. "Alright Shigure." She stood to go call her friends.
"And Tohru," Shigure called from the table. Tohru turned to him. "You're a good friend."
Tohru smiled at him and nodded. "Thank you." She decided to call Hana, and she was told she could spend the night. She went upstairs to start packing. She watched the floor as she made her way to her room. As she made her way to her room she unexpectedly bumped into something soft yet hard and then a 'POP' could be heard. A puff of orange smoke was now lingering in front of her. "Oh, my god Kyo, I'm so sorry. I wasn't watching were I was going. I'm sorry I truly am," Tohru ranted as she knelt down in front of the orange feline who had clothes draping off of him. "I wasn't even thinking, I thought you were outside training."
"It's okay Tohru, I'm fine," Kyo said. "I came inside to freshen up because I was finished." He wasn't angry at all, in fact he had a far off look in his eye and Tohru noticed.
"Um, Kyo are you okay?" Tohru asked as she picked up his clothes.
The orange cat looked up at her. "I'm fine, don't worry about it. I'll live. You should know this isn't the first time," Kyo answered her as he started walking into his room just in case he would change back.
"Actually that's not what I meant," Tohru said as she laid the clothes down in his room. Kyo looked up at her confused. "I was talking about what happened between you and Yuki."
Kyo didn't move or say anything at that comment. He just looked away from the girl. "Tohru, I…."
"I just want to know why you did it," Tohru said softly.
Kyo turned from her and hung his head. "You wouldn't understand."
"I don't care. Explain it to me," Tohru said. 'POP' another orange puff of smoke filled the room. Tohru turned to give the teen privacy while he dressed.
"That's the problem," Kyo said as he pulled his shirt on. "How can I explain it to you if I don't even know myself?"
Tohru turned around abruptly to face him, wide eyes. "Then, you don't know why you broke up with him?" He didn't turn to her. "But then, you had no reason to break up with him." She walked up to him and placed a hand on his shoulder. "You could still make it up to him, by explaining what you just explained to me."
"But I didn't explain anything to you. All I told you was that I let the…." he couldn't finish.
"You let what?" Tohru asked.
Kyo sighed as he turned to her. He let his bangs cover his eyes. "I….I let the……the best thing that ever happened to me go."
Tohru's face brightened up. "Kyo, you still love him. Don't you?"
"The truth is I broke up with him to protect him. Even though we had agreed already that it didn't matter how much we were threatened, we would stay together and work it out. But I didn't care how big our promise was. I felt what could happen if someone would disobey our 'god'. I also know Yuki has felt it, probably worse too, and because of that I didn't want it to happen again. I didn't really care if I would get hurt, but having Yuki hurt because of my actions; that I just could not live with," Kyo explained. "I guess I do still love him, but I really screwed up."
"Kyo, you can still make it up to him," Tohru said. "Just tell him the truth."
"I can't, I said all those things to him," Kyo said putting a hand to his head. He squinted his eyes tight to keep the tears back that he could feel coming to the surface. "I even told him I hated him. I highly doubt right now he would even listen to me, let alone look me in the eye."
"But Kyo you should at least…."
"Don't you understand!" Kyo yelled at her. "I told him the exact opposite of how I really felt! I ignored him! I fucking lied to him after promising I wouldn't! Even if I did try do you really think he would listen to me? After what I did!"
Tohru cowered under Kyo's harsh words. She took a step back from him as he finished his ranting. Tohru just watched his movements to see what he was going to do now. She knew on her own that he didn't mean to yell at her but he had to get the truth off his chest and this was just one way.
Kyo was panting when he was done yelling. Looking up at Tohru and seeing a surprised look on her face he slapped a hand over his mouth. "Tohru I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to yell at you, it's just that….I…..this is just…." Kyo fell to his knees and grabbed his head in grief. "This wasn't how it was suppose to go."
Tohru's eyes softened upon the boy in front of her. She knelt down in front of him and could only think of one safe way to comfort him. She grabbed his shoulders and gently pulled forward letting his head rest on her shoulder. "Kyo, it shouldn't matter if Yuki listens or not, you should at least try to tell him. I'm sure you will think of a way to get him to listen," Tohru assured him.
Kyo couldn't help it. He could feel the warm tears staining his face and being absorbed by Tohru's shirt. He wanted to stop, he felt so weak crying, but he couldn't. His emotions were just too strong. "I still don't know though Tohru," he said. He raised his head a little and got a glance at someone walking past his door. His eyes shot wide. He knew who it was and he had heard everything.
I'm back with chapter 17 after about……how many days was it? Oh, who cares at least I'm not quitting this story, which I bet some people thought I would after changing everything.
Alright I will admit I didn't mean to get all angsty with this story but at the time I was in a really bad mood and that's how I felt, meaning I wrote like that. So now this story is getting a bit off track but I hope that this chapter and the ones to come can fix it up. I hope you guys don't hate me for switching it but when my personal life is screwed up it comes out in my writings. Sorry again.
The good side of it though is that I got way, way more people to review. You have finally come out and shown yourselves, ha!
I will update as soon as I can; you must at least have 5 reviews though.
See ya next chapter.
