Kyo sighed slightly as the light, fluffy clouds passed slowly overhead. The scene he beheld that morning replayed over and over in his mind,

-----FLASHBACK-----

Kyo was walking slowly, anxiously toying with the red rose in his hands. Dear God, he thought, Please let her accept me. Up ahead he saw Tohru turn onto the street he was walking down and he skillfully ducked behind a tree. He took a deep breath and gripped the rose; he had already taken the thorns off for Tohru. He was about to walk out and talk to her when a voice interrupted his train of thought.

"Miss Honda?" came the soft, gentle voice.

Kyo stopped dead, it couldn't be.

"Yuki!" he heard Tohru say in her usual cheerful manner.

"I," Kyo heard Yuki gulp, "I'd like to give you these."

Kyo glanced and saw that he was giving her a large bouquet of daisys.

"Oh, Yuki! They're beautiful, I love daisys. Thank you so very much!" Tohru said. Then she contiued in a much more humble manner, "You didn't go to all that trouble just for me did you? I'd hate to think of what this cost..."

Yuki stopped her right there,

"They didn't cost me much at all, but even if they had you deserve it, Miss Honda."

Tohru blushed.

"Now," Yuki said taking her hand, "Let's get home."

With that they left. Kyo had long since snapped the rose in half and it was now laying on the ground. He let a tear crawl down his face and it landed on a stray petal. He was too late.

END OF FLASHBACK

Another stray tear slid down his cheek before he swiftly wiped it away. She would have never loved him anyway. He could never be as good as Yuki; never. They deserved each other, Yuki obviously made her happy. He wanted Tohru so badly ever since she had accepted his true form, but all he ever did was yell at her. Suddenly he heard a cheerful voice come from the ladder,

"Hi, Kyo. What are you doing up here so early?"

"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?! DON'T SCARE PEOPLE LIKE THAT!" Kyo yelled quickly wiping off his tear stained cheeks.

"Oh, uh," Tohru said trying not to cry, "I'll leave you alone if I bother you..."

"Wait, you don't bother me at all," Kyo said sighing, "It's just, you just came at a bad time that's all."

"If you're sure," Tohru said climbing up to sit beside him.
