Chapter two:

Kyo tried to look unfazed but he couldn't help how his fist clenched and his jaw tightened. His eyes grew dark for a split second before he asked, "Wh…what did you say?"

"Damn it! How many times do we have to say it! Are you death or something!"

"Uo calm down. It just came as a big shock."

"Well if he'd pay a bit more attention then maybe she'd be with him instead of the Prince."

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Kyo roared, standing up quickly and knocking his desk over. 'Ha-ha. Got you Orange-top.' Uo smirked to herself a mischievous glint in her eyes. Hanna couldn't help the small smile that graced her lips, liking how this was turning out and the chaotic electro waves that Kyo was giving off.

"Well yeah, don't you think it's kind of weird that the Prince has had meetings all week and Tohru has been leaving quickly after school?" Kyo's eyes widened. 'Come to think of it, they have been coming home together for the past week. Are they really…'

"There's no doubt in my mind that they are together." Hanna joined in, "But I have to wonder, do you love Tohru?"

"What!"

"Are you angry that Tohru is with the Prince instead of you?"

"Hell no. And in answer to your earlier, I do not love her!"

"Really?" she stared him down, smirking.

"Hey, why'd you smirk like that? You read my mind, didn't you?"

"There's no need. As you said you don't love her. Besides I can't read minds. I can feel people's emotions through the waves they give off."

"It's practically the same thing!" he growled. Uo was trying her best not to start cracking up. Instead she chose to look out the window. Both Hanna and she knew that wasn't the case. Tohru had a new friend but it was far from the Prince.

"But still." Uo said calmly after regaining her composer, giving her a thoughtful expression, "Aren't you just the littlest bit jealous. I know I am." She turned to look at Kyo, sparing a glance at Hanna who caught on quickly.

"Yes, I as well am jealous."

"She's not talked to us about it. I can't help but feel a bit left out, you know?" Uo gave him a sincere smile, the most she could while fighting the fit of laughter that was just over the horizon.

Kyo's head dropped and for a moment it seemed as though he was going to start crying, that is until his head snapped up, face beat red from anger.

"HELL NO! I'm just…uh…you see…I…grrrr…I don't know! Hell, why am I even talking about this? I'm wasting time! Besides I don't have to tell you anything! I'm going home!" With that said he lifted his desk, grabbed his bag and proceeded to run out the door, down the hall, and out of school.

As soon as he pasted the school gates Uo let out a tremendous roar of laughter. Hanna chuckled behind her hand.

"How long before he finds out we just played him."

"Not long."

They both looked at each other and continued laughing.

Kyo slowed down to a walk, his face red. He kicked a stone grumbling. He had wanted to say he loved her. Now he regretted it. He wished he wasn't embarrassed. But also, he wished he didn't have the curse. If he didn't he might have been able to have hinted he liked her. He was paranoid ever since they came back from the beach house, afraid to even mention her name to himself for fear Akito would hear. He felt responsible when Akito cut her, useless.

It was times like these when he'd stop and think about her that he wished he didn't act like such a jerk towards her. He always watched her, thought about her, secretly. He thought about her nearly all day. Whether it be before he fell asleep of while her sat on top of the roof, she was never far from his mind.

He became jealous whenever she was around any other guy. Especially Yuki. "Yuki. The damn rat. I hate him!' His name made Kyo tremble with anger. He had planned on telling Tohru. In fact he was going to tell her real soon. "But now…now it's to late.' Kyo sighed heavily, bowing his head and shoving his hands into his pockets.

"How could I be so stupid?" Kyo burst through the front doors not bothering to give a greeting. Upon hearing the door open, Shigure ran to see Kyo only to stop mid-step when he saw the murderous gleam in Kyo's eyes. Deciding to play it safe, he scurried back to his study tail between his legs, leaving the mad cat to ponder on the roof.

On the roof he thought about Tohru, how he felt about her and how things would be no between them. Before long it had grown dark. 'When did it…'

"We're home!" her angelic voice rang throughout the household and into Kyo's ears. His eye twitched and jaw clenched, 'we're!' Her heard Yuki speak and at once the hair on the back of his neck stood on end and a low his was emitting from his mouth.

"Where's that stupid cat?" Shigure pointed to the roof. "He was very upset when he got home. Did you two get into a fight at school or something?"

"Surprisingly no. He was probably beat again by Miss Uotani." Yuki answered casually walking up the stairs to his room. Shigure shook his head, and then turned to Tohru with tears in his eyes.

"Tohru, I'm hungry. Can you make me something to eat?"

"What. You mean he didn't even eat. I left dinner prepared. All it needed was to be heated up."

"Whaaa! Tohru, Kyo's so mean."

"I'll heat it up, then go check on him." She smiled walking into the kitchen, while Shigure pranced about the room singing about food and Tohru. Yuki soon put an end to his singing when it became perverted. He was surprised when Kyo didn't join him in the beating.

After dinner Tohru decided to check on Kyo, bring a plate for him to eat.

Kyo's Thoughts

"They both got home together. Maybe the Yankee and the Physic were right. Maybe she has been secretly been going out with him for the past week or maybe longer. Did I really not see it?" He asked himself.

"Grrr." He scratched his head in irritation.

"I found you!" Tohru chirped.

"Yeah, hi." He grumbled, turning his back to her. Tohru frowned, sitting down next to him.

"Kyo is something wrong? Shigure said you were upset when you came home from school. Did I offend you in some way? If I did I am really sor…"

"STOP!" his outburst made Tohru jump, clamping her mouth shut, "You didn't do anything. I just had a lot on my mind." He stopped, thinking, then turned to look at her. "Why didn't you tell me you two are a couple?"

"Couple? What do you mean?" she asked, genuinely confused. Kyo snapped.

"WHAT DO I MEAN! I MEAN YOU AND THAT DAMN RAT THAT'S WHAT! You've both have left early for the past four days and come home at the same time. I don't know about you, but I don't think it is a coincidence." He said sarcastically. He settled down a bit when he saw that same confused face, but this time along with confusion there was also great surprise. He turned away as to not look at her, his face softening.

"I'm sorry, but why didn't you tell me? You didn't have to hide it." Tohru's eyes widen. The gravity of his words finally sinking in. air head

"Yuki and I a couple?" she whispered, then burst in to giggles.

"What's so…"

"I'm sorry to have led you down to the wrong direction. Yuki and I are not a couple."

"Then why…" Tohru put a delicate finger to his lips, silencing him effectively.

"Tomorrow…tomorrow would you mind coming with me. There's someone I'd like you to meet. We don't have school so you'll have all day to get to know each other." Kyo thought for a moment before nodding. 'Now I'll see who this guy really is.'

"Great! You'll really like him." She smiled radiantly and climbed down the ladder.

'Tomorrow is going to be a long day.' He thought.
