Previously
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.
Now
"Ah, Yuki, you look well this afternoon," Shigure said as Yuki entered the sitting room. Yuki didn't answer him, just gave him a glance and sat down. He's been like this all weekend. I guess Tohru was right. Shigure put down his paper and looked Yuki over. He looked terrible. You could see dark circles under his eyes from lack of sleep; his face, if possible, was paler than usual from lack of food. "Yuki, are you alright?"
Yuki looked across the table at Shigure and gave him a weak smile. "Of course Shigure. Why do you ask?"
"Well Yuki to put it plainly, you look awful," Shigure said bluntly. "Something has to be wrong." Shigure waited for an answer but was given none. "Don't tell me you're still hung up on Kyo."
Yuki shot a glare at him. "Why the hell would I still like that fucking, idiotic cat?"
"I don't know, you tell me." Shigure sat across from his with his fingers entwined under his chin.
"But I don't like him!" Yuki punched his fists down on the table.
"But, the way you are reacting is giving me a different answer."
"Shut the fuck up Shigure!" Yuki stood and walked to the doorway, his knuckles turning white from him balling them up. "How could anyone like that stupid cat!" He turned and ended up hitting someone. He was still mad at Shigure so without thinking when he looked up at who he ran into he gaze was still in a glare. When he looked up and stared into those crimson eyes that once looked back at him with the same feeling he once held in his heart, he felt a sudden pang in his chest. He didn't say anything just turned and walked away toward the front door.
"Kyo, aren't you going to talk to him?" Tohru whispered as she watched Yuki walk away.
"He heard what I said to you, and he still won't look at me with intentions of listening," Kyo said as he too watched Yuki walk away. Yuki got to the door and put on his shoes, and without even saying a good bye he left.
Kyo heard someone sigh in front of him and when he looked it was Shigure. "Kyo, Kyo, Kyo, when will you learn and understand?" Shigure asked as he shook his head.
"What do you mean?" Kyo asked as his entered the room.
"You should know by now that Yuki is the sensitive type and that he just doesn't want to over hear what you say. He wants to hear it directly from you. Though it might be hard and it might not be obvious, it's what he really wants. I mean come on; you guys have done it enough to know each other better than that."
Kyo hit Shigure on the side of the face and sent him a little ways from where he was sitting. "We didn't do anything like that!"
"Oh, really?" Shigure asked as he stood and held his cheek from the impact. Tohru rushed to his side with and ice pack in hand. "Then, it should be okay. I mean you haven't gone all the way so it won't matter that much."
Kyo glared at him. "Shut the hell up when you have no idea what you're talking about! Look I know I did a stupid thing but that does not give you the right to tell me how I should feel about it!"
"If you feel so bad about it then why don't you go patch things up with him?" Shigure suggested.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Kyo crossed his arms over his chest and gave him a glare.
"Just go find Yuki and explain everything. That away you get it off your chest, Yuki hears it from you, and you can play it by ear from there." Shigure could see that Kyo was thinking about it. "Just go do what you think is right." Without another word Kyo was out the door trailing Yuki.
"Shigure, do you think that was the right thing to do?" Tohru asked.
"Well, all I know is that if those two mope around here for one more day I'll kick them out and make them live with each other," Shigure said with a smile. Tohru sweatdropped at the remark but smiled nonetheless.
"I just hope that Yuki will listen to Kyo," Tohru said.
Somewhere
"I can't believe the nerve of him," Yuki said as he walked around the wooded area. "First the things he tells Tohru and not me, and then he didn't say anything when he had the chance to stop me? What is wrong with him?" He kicked a stone to the side and it hit a tree. He looked at the tree and sudden realization hit him; he'd been there before. A vivid memory came back to his mind as a chill came across his body. He held a hand up to the tree and then slumped down in front of it, holding his shoulders. "At that point he….wasn't scared to say anything. And it was in front of our god too," Yuki said. He held his head in confusion. "This is getting too complicated."
"So, this is where you went," a voice called from behind him. Yuki was a bit started and turned only slightly to see who it was. When he realized who it was he turned back to the tree and ignored the orange haired teen. "Yuki, don't do this to me."
"Just giving you the treatment you gave me," Yuki said as he stood up.
"Can you please just listen to me?" Kyo asked.
Yuki didn't reply. He simply turned, not giving Kyo any mind, and started to walk past but Kyo gripped his wrist as he did. Yuki looked at him, but his eyes were hidden under his orange bangs. "Let me go you stupid cat," he said tugging, but Kyo's grip just got tighter.
"No, I need to talk to you," Kyo said. He hadn't moved or looked at Yuki, his gaze was straight forward.
Yuki kept pulling away from Kyo but was making no progress. He finally gave in and let his arm hang limp. "Fine, I'll listen, but it doesn't mean I'll acknowledge," Yuki said dryly.
"As long as I tell you its fine," Kyo said. He let go of Yuki and walked over to a tree stump and sat down on it. He put his head down and his hands together as his forearms rested on his knees. Yuki turned to face him, arms crossed. Kyo sighed decided, since he did have Yuki he might as well tell him. "First, I just want to apologize to you. I admit I did some really stupid shit. I know I shouldn't have done it, but I did and if I could I would take it back, for anything," Kyo started.
"But, you did do it," Yuki plainly stated.
"Yeah, I know that. I'm trying to tell you I'm really, extremely sorry for it," Kyo said. He bit his lip. "Will you please forgive me?" Kyo didn't hear Yuki say anything and snuck a look at him. He was glaring down at him and his fists were clenched so tightly his knuckles were turning white. The sight scared Kyo.
"Why you insignificant bastard!" Yuki said. Kyo looked at him a bit confused. Here he was trying to apologize for being one and Yuki was just calling him that. "After what you did, what you said, what you made me go through, you expect me just to say, 'yes, Kyo I forgive you, please come back to me'?" Yuki asked glaring harder.
Sorta. Kyo stood up in front of Yuki. "Not exactly but, kind of along those lines," Kyo said.
"Are you kidding me!" Yuki poked his chest with his pointer finger. "You must be, because if that is how you really want me to react you are so wrong!"
Kyo was getting annoyed by this point. He was trying to apologize and Yuki was making a huge-ass fuse about it. "Can't you just except that I'm saying I'm sorry?" Kyo yelled back at him.
"No, I can't! If I did the same thing to you, you would feel the same way. But for lots of reasons that will not happen!"
"Why can't it?"
"Because you already did it to me and I don't think I can trust you enough," Yuki said. "And, I don't love you anymore!" No, that's not true. "After what you did I came to the realization that you didn't want me anymore so I'm giving up on you!" Shut up, you don't mean that. "I believed for a few days that we could get back together, but I was proven wrong and now it's over!" No, Kyo I don't mean that. "I wish I never met you!" Don't believe me. "How could I ever love a monster!" After that, things went dead silent. Yuki was in tears from saying all that, partially because he was arguing with himself the whole time. He looked up at Kyo, once again his bangs were hiding his eyes, and he was silent. Not a word spoken for what seemed like hours between the two.
Kyo then turned and walked away from Yuki. He didn't know what to think and Yuki didn't know what to say. Instead he stayed silent himself and walked the opposite way back to the house.
Alright, it's been a long, long time but I'm back with chapter 18! Almost up to twenty. I still don't know how far I'm going with this, but it will be a few more chapters I'm sure. Not really much of anything to say right now, so until next chapter!
Remember: 5 reviews at least for me to update!
