Falling in Love with Kyo in 13 Days Chapter 5
"..Kyo...?" Yuki called his name confused.

"Just... just for one minute..." Kyo said quietly.

Yuki did not reply back to him or resisted. Instead, she held on to Kyo's shirts and closed her eyes tightly.

Kyo didn't look at her, but he tightened his arms around her.

"I..."

"...?" Yuki tired to lift her head up.

"I...need... to tell you something... that I..." Kyo then stopped and turned his face away from her.

Yuki looked at him with her trembling eyes.

"...I! I think... I think...! I LOVE YOU!" Those were the words Kyo said when he had turned back to her and grabbed her shoulders.

"...Kyo..." Yuki seemed shocked.

"...I know.. I know you are the rat.. but... I.. I know this will sound weird.. but I loved you.. even before... you drank the medicine and I..."

"...Kyo.. this is..." Yuki put her head down and covered her mouth.

"Okay, I know it's.. it's fucking messed up.. I know.. I mean.. like... but.. I do... and.." Kyo tried to explain, thinking Yuki was crying.

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry.." Kyo kept repeating.

"No, that's not...!" Yuki tried to say something, but noticed a figure behind Kyo that made her stop.

Kyo turned around to see what made Yuki shake with fear and saw... AKITO.. the god of all zodiacs.

"...Aki...t o...? What... are..." Kyo was surprised too, buthe quickly stood in front of Yuki to prepare for whatever harm Akito was going to do.

"Hah? What is this..? Little cat proposing his dearly love to a rat... I mean.. a girl rat?" Akito said in a calm, but furious tone.

"Ah... ah... Akito!" Yuki was horrified. Kyo held on to her shoulders tightly and looked at Akito.

"Go away, Akito. I beg you go away."

Akito then only smirked. "What makes you think that a god will do what a filthy demon cat tells him to do?"

"...!" A single drop ran out of Yuki's eyes.

"And. just to tell you ignorant fools, members ofthe cursed, your little love is not allowed..by ME!" Akito yelled at Kyo.

"I didn't get a report of my dear Yuki turned into a pathetic girl. Shigure, Ayame, Hatori, and you Kyo! will be responsible of this. In addition, Kyo, you are not allowed to talk toor, meet the eyes of, or even to see Yuki. Get out of Shigure's house. Remeber, your powerless love will just give you pain. You guys are cursed. Cursed. CURSED!" Akito shouted out.

"...Shut up.. Shut up.. Akito.." Kyo murmured then spoke in his usual low tone. "I won't let you hurt Yuki. I'm through all this. I..."

"No, stop Kyo." Yuki's soft voice disturbed.

"What...?" Kyo looked at Yuki.

"Akito, I'm... I'm sorry... Please don't punish Kyo, it's my fault. I let him off my guard. I won't ever do that again. Let him go." Yuki spoke with her voice shaking a bit.

"Yuki...! You..." Kyo looked back at her.

Akito smirked again.

"I'm sorry Kyo, but... but.. I don't think of you as ... as.. someone I love. You... you're just confused because I turned into a girl. We'll... We'll still be good... friends...," Yuki tried to smile as best as she could.

"You... really..." Kyo tried to say something, but couldn't.

Yuki made a lonely smile and turned her back at him. She walk slowly, not trying to show any of her tears, to her home.

"Hmph, well then. Rejection. You heard, but you are still not allowed to see or talk to Yuki, get it? Fine fine, it all works out now." Akito laughed as he calmed himself from anger.

Then he returned to where his car was parked and Kyo stood there, alone, all by himself.

'Bad timing.. bad timing.. it's just that... that's all...' Kyo kept repeating his thoughts, but he realized.. Yuki might not have liked him anyways. He now couldn't return to Shigure's house. It was Akito's orders. Akito... Akito... How much he hated that name... Kyo tried to keep himself walking, but he still released his stress from the wall, throwing his fist as he cursed and cursed his destiny. The sunset had already been gone, and black emptiness filled around him, as well as his heart. People passed by him, cursing at him for bumping into them, but he still didn't care. At last, he stopped atan old apartment...

"Yukiko-chan Good morning!" Fellow classmates greeted Yuki. Yuki nodded her head back at them, but couldn't erase her gloomy expression.

"What's wrong, Yukiko-chan? You seemed to be worried." It was Yuuji, who wanted to take his chances before Kyo arrived.

"...Nothing... thank you, Yuji-kun... may I... ask.. you a question...?" Yuki spoke in her soft voice.

"Of course, anything, anything!"

"Is... Kyo... here... today...?" She led out her words carefully.

"...Kyo? Nah, he's not,"Yuuji became discouraged with the fact that Yuki asked about Kyo.

"Oh... I see.."

"But you know, instead of Kyo, we could go to a cafe afterschool! I know this really great pla..." Yuuji continued even after Yuki left for her homeroom.

The day went really slow for Yuki, worried about Kyo all along.

'Kyo... would... he be okay? Is he depressed.. that I rejected him? But it's not... anyways.. it's not allowed... When will I change back in to a guy? I feel like... I'm becoming emotional because I'm a girl. I'm still worried.. would he...'

"Sohma Yukiko!" She finally heard the teacher's furious voice.

"Yes," Yuki stood up.

"I told you to solve this problem on the board!"

"Oh, I'm, I'm so sorry..."

Yuki came back from school, walking to her room, tired.

Something wasn't right because Kyo wasn't here, and she wasn't the only one who felt it.

"Haahh-- It's too quiet without Konkichi." Ayame yawned, looking at Hatori, who was reading a newspaper.

"It really does, you know, I never noticed it when he was here." Shigure nodded, lying down on the sofa.

"It does, I guess, but I need to get going to the mainhouse. Akito is having some problems again." Hatori stood up.

"Ehhh Hari, you're going to leave me with this manly beast?" Ayame held onto Hatori's gown.

"Aya! How can you call me like that? I'm sure apuppy is more innocent than a snake." Shigure tossed a candy in his mouth.

"You're not a puppy, you are a DOG!" Ayame peeled the candy wrapper, and it was beginning of their love fight. Hatori left while they were arguing, and Yuki looked at them hopeless.

"Oi, Yuki." He stopped as Ayame suddenly called his name.

"Or lovely little brother YukiYuki-chan" Ayame grinned.

"Oh, was it lovely little sister Yukiko-chan?" Ayame threw a strawberry flavored candy at Yuki.

Yuki grabbed it with one hand, and replied back to him, "Go do your work."

"Ehhhhhh that's mean" Ayame threw another lemon flavored candy at him.

This time, Yuki threw both candies back at Ayame, who grabbed it professionally. Then she continued her way to her room, until she heard, "I know where Kyo is." from playful older brother of his.
