Update! Lol. I know some of you were probably expecting lemon, but I skipped over it. When I wrote this fic, I wasn't comfortable with my 'lemon writing skills'. But since then, I have written several lemons. This story just doesn't have one. Although, obviously something along those lines happened. So enjoy this moment of happiness, cause there's still more angst and pain to come.
Chapter Fifteen -
Yuki wakes up on the sofa by himself. There was clanging in the kitchen, so Tohru was obviously up. The rat hoped she hadn't noticed his half-naked form in the living room. Where was Kyo? After what happened last night, Yuki needed to talk with the cat. He pulls his pants and shirt on, then jogs upstairs to shower. After putting on clean clothes, he returns downstairs to ask where Kyo is.
Upon entering the kitchen, he finds Tohru cooking. She blushes when she sees Yuki, and he figures she saw him sleeping downstairs. "Morning Honda-San. Have you seen Kyo this morning?" He asks in a normal tone. Still blushing the girl responds. "I think he's on the roof." Yuki nods and quickly goes out to the ladder outside. He climbs up to find Kyo lying with his eyes closed.
"Kyo? Is everything all right?" The cat sleepily opens his eyes and smiles. "I was having trouble sleeping next to you." He says. Yuki scowls. What did the cat mean by that? Kyo laughs heartily. "I couldn't stop watching you sleep." The rat's face burns red. So that's what he meant. "I think we should talk. I want to know what you thinking and feeling. We didn't get much talking done last night." Yuki says. Kyo laughs again and the rat finds he could listen to that sound a thousand times. "Your right. Coherent sentences were hard to manage." That cat jokes. Yuki feigns shock and gives a look of mock horror. "Don't deny it." Kyo says seductively. Yuki smirks. "Yeah yeah. Well we can talk now." He says sitting down next to Kyo. "Well I'm guessing your fishing for something in particular. So ask now." Yuki had to admit, Kyo could zero in on anything. "I want to know why you suddenly got over what happened." Kyo's eyes flash dangerously. "Who says I'm over anything? I think you should let people tell you what they're feeling." Yuki felt stupid. "No, I didn't mean it like that. I meant, why did you do that last night?" Kyo closes his eyes for a moment, then replies, "Because of what Haru said to me. That I should love you now, while I can." Yuki felt a sudden rush of gratitude toward the ox, and hoped he was doing okay. "So you aren't mad at me anymore?" The rat asks. "I'm still confused as to what you're feeling. Weather it's pity, or you truly do care for me. But I don't think your working for Akito or anything." Yuki smiles.
"I'm glad, and now perhaps I should prove I'm not one who generally pities people." The rat grasps Kyo's waist and pulls the cat closer to himself. He stares deeply into Kyo's eyes, then gently kisses him. The cat responds eagerly, then they hear Tohru calling them. "Kyo-Kun, Yuki-Kun, breakfast is ready if you want some." Cat and rat pull away from each other and sit for a moment lost in each other's gazes. "I—I love you." Yuki says nervously. "I wanted to tell you last night, but……" Kyo looks near tears. "I love you too Yuki." He whispers leaning his forehead against the rat's. They sit there for a moment, relishing the wonderful feeling, then quickly they crawl down the ladder.
So what did you think. Likey? Review please.
