Story- Memories of rain

Chapter 3- School time and Yuki's reaction

Kyo and Tohru got to their school and finally got to class just as the bell rang. Kyo was sitting at his desk, staring out the window, and he was smiling too. Arisa Uotani, who had been watching him for a few minutes now, got up and started to walk over to Tohru, who was his new secret girlfriend.

" Uh…Tohru? Do you know whats up with Orange top? He seems…like…uh…did I miss something?" She asked her suspiciously.

Tohru blushed deeply and stared down at the ground, thinking for a moment.

" Kinda…not really…no…uh…" She glanced quickly to Kyo, who wasn't effected at all. He was just staring out the window at pretty much nothing.

Uo stared at her suspiciously before turning around.

" Okay Tohru, just tell me if there's any problems."

" No, Arisa. I can sense something is different…Kyo? What is it?" She had her electric purple aura swirling around her, trapping Kyo in a corner. Yea, I think Kyo is out of daydream mode now…

" Uh…uh…help…me…" He squeaked out. Hana knew what it was; she just wanted to hear them say it.

" Well, um…" Tohru began. She didn't know what exactly to say! What if Hana zapped him, or Uo wanted to fight? " Promise you won't be mad?"

This kinda worried her friend, Uo.

" What is it and I'll tell ya!" She yelled.

" Well, me and Kyo…" she began, unable to finish her sentence so she bent her head down.

" …We're a couple now…" Finished Kyo. Tohru didn't expect him to say it to be honest. It didn't seem…well…his style…AT ALL! She looked over at him, then to Hana, who was unaffected, then to Uo, who was in shock.

" A-a-a-a-a co-co-couple? Since when?" Uo bellowed at her friend and her new boyfriend.

" This morning." Tohru squeaked softly. She knew Uo was happy for them, but she just shows it weird. That's what Uo's personality was like.

Uo sighed and sat down. She knew she had to be happy for them, Tohru was her first friend and she was just a little bit overprotective. Okay, BIG LIE. She was very overprotective. But she was happy nonetheless.

Yuki walked into the room soon after that thought. He looked around at everyone. Almost all of it looked normal. BUT WAIT! Was that Kyo smiling while talking to Uo and Tohru? What the hell was this all about? Was he bragging again? He'd show him to brag to Tohru! He started to walk over to them, expecting Kyo wanting to fight him.

Kyo looked up, still smiling when he saw Yuki.

" What do you want, pretty boy?" Kyo said, his smile slowly turned into a frown.

" What are you talking about, stupid?" Yuki said, standing over him.

" Don't call me stupid! I told you that before!" Kyo hissed at Yuki.

" Yeah, and I told you not to act stupid, stupid!" Yuki retorted.

" That's it! We're taking this outside!" Kyo yelled, starting to walk out of the classroom. After a moment he opened the door and looked back in, seeing Yuki just standing there.

" Hey! You're supposed to be outside with me, damn rat!" He yelled while running back in and up to Yuki.

" I don't feel like it. Besides, class is starting so tell me what the hell you were talking about, cat." Yuki said, fixing his tie. It was crooked, as usual.

" You really wanna know, Prince?" Uo said to him. She didn't know it was a secret.

" Yes, I do."

" Well, Tohru and-" She was cut off by Kyo and Tohru shushing her.

" Its not important Yuki!" Tohru said quickly, still blushing deeply. She wasn't embarrassed about it or anything; she just didn't want to hurt him by this. She knew she couldn't keep it from him forever and that she would eventually he would know whether it was on purpose, or an accident.

Yuki stared at her suspiciously, knowing she was lying to him, but it had to be bad if she wouldn't tell him.

" Tohru, please tell me, I want to know. It doesn't matter what it is." Okay, that was a lie. He defiantly cared what it was, but he wanted to know. He had an idea of what it was now. There was something going on between Kyo and her, and he hoped it wasn't what he thought it was.

Tohru looked over at Kyo. When he looked back, he gave her a mixed look that said ' Tell him, but don't tell him.' Okay, now Tohru was really confused now. She didn't want to say it, knowing it would hurt him no matter what he said to ease her mind. She really wanted Kyo to say it, but then would Yuki think of her as weak? Or a traitor? Oh! She didn't know what to do anymore!

" Well, me and Kyo are going out and before you say anything, I want to say that I am sorry. Im sorry if its hurting your feelings, okay." She was looking down at her feet and then she went to face him. When she faced him, there was an unexpected look on his face. He was smiling, so was he happy?

" Tohru, im glad that you've found someone that you can be truly happy with and that you can confide and share your feelings with. And Kyo, you better take good care of her. If I find out that you were mistreating her, I will not hold back." He said, leaving Tohru confused. 'Mistreating?' she thought, trying to think of the definition. She knew Kyo wouldn't do that at all! Everyone knew he wouldn't.

Later

Kyo, Tohru and Yuki all walked home later that afternoon. Kyo and Tohru were behind a little, holding hands. Yuki knew of course, but he couldn't help but feel over protective a little bit of her. She was the only one who wasn't family who knew of the curse and didn't reject him after all. So why didn't it bother him that they were in love and she didn't love him? Or that she picked that stupid cat over him? He sighed and thought for a moment. ' I guess that's how life works.'

So, that's chappie 3,su. The next chapter would be-Yuki's heart and Ayame's visit. – Wait! I thought that things were finally going good! So why are Yuki and Kyo fighting again? Well, hope you all enjoy, su! C.F.G.R. (Cookies for good reviewers)
