I don't plan on going through the whole story, it's getting to hard.

Ok, previously on "What Love can Do?"

Thoru's ankle is better and she is up and about. She talked to Yuki and Kyo so they wouldn't blame themselves if she was hurt.

Tohru and Yuki were the first to go to bed, leaving Kyo and Shigure alone in front of the television.

"Hey, Kyo, I got a question." Shigure started as soon as he was sure that the other two were gone.

"What?" Kyo answered, not really listening

"It's about you and Tohru. I…" Kyo snapped to attention at Shigure's mention of himself and Tohru. "I wanted to know."

"Know what?" He asked, suspicious as to what Shigure was getting to.

"Well, You love her, right…Don't try to deny it, I heard it all a few nights ago. And don't worry I wont tell Akito."

"Will you just get to the point!" Kyo snapped

"Sorry…When are you going to tell everyone else? I mean it would be better, at least no one would find out on accident like Kagura…I know every thing that goes on in my house… and they won't slip and tell Akito. I know he'll be pissed when he finds out, and it might be better to have people on your side." Kyo go up and walked to the door.

"I'll think about it." He said as he left. Behind him Shigure sighed.

Kyo went upstairs, and threw himself into his bed. What am I going to do? I know I should tell the others, but I'm not sure how, I mean I know most of them would probably be upset at me and I don't want them to take it out on Tohru. I'll figure it out tomorrow.

Kyo sat up in bed and wiped at his cheeks, it was around one in the morning. He had been woken by a nightmare… Tohru was in it. She was running…in the woods… from something. He wanted to stop her but his voice didn't work and he couldn't run…he was rooted to the ground, like a tree. She was getting farther and farther away, till he could barely see her. When she was gone, he was finally able to move, but he couldn't find her…couldn't find her anywhere. He called out to her till his voice was gone, and she didn't answer. She was lost, gone…

Tohru heard a light knock on her door; so light that if she was a heavy sleeper she wouldn't have heard it. She dragged herself out of bed and open the door, Kyo was standing there, hanging his head.

"Kyo, are you ok?" She whispered. He hugged her, as tight as he could without hurting her. "Um…Kyo" He held her out at arms length and looked at her. "Never mind" she said pulling him back to her and hugging him also.

The stood like that for a while, enjoying the closeness of their bodies. Tohru's feet started to hurt.

"Kyo…" She started again.

"Hmm?" His sleepy reply came from over her head.

"I'm tired, can we lie down?" Kyo was now fully awake, but he didn't move, not sure how to react. Tohru pulled out of the embrace and grabbed his had, walking him over to the bed.

"Right or left?" She asked, as if this was normal.

"What?" He looked at the bed. "Oh, um…you chose."

"Ok, you can sleep on the right near the wall. Ok?"

"Yea." He climbed into the bed, never letting go of her hand, still feeling the terror of his nightmare; Tohru climbed in behind him. Once they were both under the covers Tohru snuggled her back to him and wrapped his arm over her side.

I can't believe it. I'm in Tohru's bed, as in under her covers, as in holding her close…and she invited me. I was the one that came to her room because…because I was scared; scared of a stupid dream.No, not the dream... Scared of losing her. I'm glad I'm here, next to her… They both fell instantly asleep.

Yuki got up this morning as tired as ever, he dragged himself down the stairs to find Shigure rummaging through the fridge.

"Morning Yuki, sleep well? Have any plans today?" Shigure was already wide awake. Kyo and Tohru were nowhere to be seen.

"Where's breakfast?" Yuki sleepily grumbled.

"What do you mean? Its spring break! There's no reason to wake up early and make breakfast. To tell you the truth I'm surprised you got out of bed."

"Oh… I forgot." Yuki dragged himself back up to his room and into his bed. After a few minutes of trying to falling back to sleep, he gave up and decided to get up. He ate, showered and tried to watch TV. No one was around, so Yuki decided to go check on Tohru.

He was going to knock, something stopped him…a feeling. Instead he gripped the doorknob and slowly opened the door. Kyo was there…in the bed…with Tohru.

Familiar scene, ain't it? Ain't I a stinker? ;) R & R!

Quick Question: Should I bring Akito into more of the story?
