Okay so this chapter really sucked…like big time…so I edited it (in other words added more crap to make it look better)…bows enjoy
Hi everyone! This is my first fan-fic, so I am really nervous in posting it up. My friends who already have stories on here said I should post it. So…hope you like, and please…NO FLAMES. Remember R&R.
Disclaimer: I do not own Fruits Basket Natsuki Takaya-Sensei does. Though I wish it were mine, it will never happen…sadly.
Kyo Sohma stared out the window an impassive glaze on his face. It had been strange these past few days. Tohru was off in Tokyo for a week for college interviews, and it wasn't really right. There was no reason to come out for there was no one to bug him. And since there was no one to bug him, there was no reason to go shouting and screaming. And since there was no shouting and screaming, (well you get the idea). He let out a sigh; he couldn't deny it; he was lonely. Kyo had been over at Kazuma's dojo for most of the week so it would be a little more interesting, but he just couldn't let the feeling pass. It was boring without Tohru to amuse him with her clumsiness, her bright smile that sent his heart rocketing through his emotions, basically everything he loved about her. Yes, he couldn't deny it any longer. Kyo had a little thing for the rice ball…not a little crush either. He really loved her and it was getting to the point whether he tell someone or combust (he was sure Yuki would like that) How was he going to tell Tohru something so strong? What would she say if he did? He got off his bed and stared out the window…another cold night. Winter had come just as it always had…just a few more months till he would have to be taken to that dark chamber and spend the rest of his life…alone…
While Kyo was pondering these thoughts, Yuki Sohma was in his own room the same expression on his face. In his hands were a pen and the start of a letter. It had taken him hours to get only the first two sentences. How could expressing his feelings be so hard? It was there last year all together. His last year with Tohru…he had to tell her he loved her. He stared at the letter again and sighed…
Dear Miss. Honda scratched out To Miss Honda scratched out Dear Tohru,
These past years have been the greatest of my entire life and its all thanks to you. Your smile to brighten my day, your wonderful personality that fills my hear with joy, your voice-
Okay…so maybe not even the first two…but he was trying. Yet he knew for sure once Tohru had read the letter he would feel more confident and ask her out in person. He patted himself on the back for such a good idea. Okay back to the letter…
…your voice that lifts my spirit…Miss Honda…I cannot tell you how much you mean to me…
Good so far…he could see it now…her reaction would be perfect…and maybe she would feel the same…that was his goal. Then she would be in love with him and not Kyo…he knew how much his cousin liked her…but he just didn't know Tohru like Yuki did. However just as he set his pencil down for more, the ringing of the telephone brought him to reality. He waited…surely Shigure would pick it up. Another ring…c'mon Shigure…another ring…GOD! He stumbled out of his chair and ran out his room before the voice mail picked it up. "Hello?"
"Yuki! Is that you?"
The young rat's breath caught at his throat. "Miss Honda…h-hello,"
"Oh Yuki I missed you SO MUCH! (a/n: too cheery) How are you?"
He breathed deeply before answering, "Great, and you?"
"I'm doing FANTASTIC! It's so fun over here in Tokyo! My roommate is the nicest person ever and I think I might have a chance to past the entrance exams, and its all thanks to you Yuki! Thank you so much for helping these past three years!"
'It's nothing Miss Honda I would do it again if I'd have to."
"You've been such a big help Yuki thank you!"
"Well Miss Honda its because-"
"I love you so much!" Had she just said what he thought she said?
"Y-You l-l-love…m-me?" His whole body shook…could this really be happening? Maybe he wouldn't need that letter after all.
"Of course, you're like the brother I never had!" Yuki felt something shut off in his brain. A brother…yes of course…Tohru didn't love him like that. They were like family. He felt a lump in his throat.
"I love you too Miss Honda," He tried to forbid his voice to crack. He didn't feel like he could talk to her anymore, "I have to go now Miss Honda…would you like to speak to Shigure or someone?" Tohru quieted on the other line.
"Could I speak to Kyo please?" A pain filled Yuki's heart.
"Yes of course."
Kyo sat on the edge of his bed playing with a thread that was coming out of his covers. I guess some habits are hard to brake. A small sigh escaped his lips. Why was it so boring? Even arguing with Yuki would have been better than this.
Knock, knock
"Kyo are you in there?" speak of the devil
"Yeah I'm in here."
Yuki opened the door and starred angrily at him.
Kyo glared back. "What do you want rat boy?" hatred filled his every word. Yuki rolled his eyes.
"It's Miss Honda," he replied with the same tone, "Do you want to talk or should I tell her you're not here?" Kyo jumped from his bed and headed for the door bumping Yuki on the way out. He waited for a few seconds so that Yuki could make his cocky remark about him being stupid. It didn't come. He turned to look at Yuki. Something was different about him…Kyo couldn't put his finger on it, but something had happened. Yuki looked back and glared shoving the phone into Kyo's hands.
"Here, talk to her!" his voice was sharp, and before Kyo could reply, Yuki stormed down the hall. Kyo watched him walk off. Then as if nothing happened, he lifted the phone to his ear.
"Hello?" he asked trying to hide his excitement.
"KYO!" Tohru's voice was bright and cheery on the other side of the line, "Kyo hi how are you?"
Kyo smiled, "I'm fine, how about you? How is that college thing going?" Tohru jumped at the chance to tell him about her days in Tokyo. Everyone had been wonderful to her, and how her roommate was a girl all the way from Honshu. She talked for what seemed like forever with Kyo listening intently on the other line a big smile on his face. Finally they heard a voice telling Tohru to get off the phone.
"Well Kyo, I have to go,"
"Kyo's smile faded, "Oh Okay,"
"See you on Monday then,"
"Yeah Monday…bye," Kyo saddened at the words. Monday…that seemed like an eternity.
Just as he was about to put the phone down, he heard Tohru call.
"KYO WAIT!" her voice was frantic. Kyo quickly put the phone back to his ear.
"What is it?" It took a while but her Tohru's voice finally came in a whisper.
"Kyo…I-I love you" There was a long silence. Kyo started to feel his face burn. He slowly took in a breath and placed his hand over his heart.
On the other side of the house Yuki stood with his hand on the receiver. He had heard it. So she did love him…how wonderful. He looked to the floor letting his hair fall over his eyes. He didn't want anyone to see the small tear roll down his cheek and fall onto the phone. He didn't want anyone to see…he was alone.
"Really?" (Back to Kyo) his mind felt completely blank all he sensed was warmth.
"Yes. I-I know it's so silly of me to be saying this. I feel so stupid I mean…you probably don't like me like that do you?" Kyo didn't say anything. Tohru sighed a defeated sigh. "G-goodbye Kyo…"
"I-I love you too," he managed to stammer before Tohru hung up. He heard her gasp and start to cry.
"Kyo you do?" he could hardly make out the words but he knew what she was saying.
"Of course." He could tell Tohru was smiling her face, probably as red as his. Again he heard the voice telling Tohru to get off. "I guess you better be going."
"Y-yes I should…Goodbye Kyo…"
"Bye,"
Kyo dropped the phone to the receiver and starred. Had that just happened, had the girl he loved just said the words he wished he's say to him all his life? He turned around to see Yuki standing in front of him.
"What is it now?" Kyo asked annoyed yet to happy to feel angry. Yuki looked up at him and smiled a cold but defeated smile.
"Congratulations you win, I heard the whole thing," he walked past Kyo who was suddenly filled with confidence.
"I'm not some so stupid now am I rat boy?" Yuki tuned to face him, eyes suddenly cold.
"Oh no, you're still the same little retarded cat I've come to know and hate." Kyo felt a tiny twinge in the back of his mind.
"Yeah well you're still an asshole,"
"If anything, you are the asshole low-life,"
"Jackass,"
"Bastard,"
"QUEER!"
Yuki smirked, "I know you are," Kyo snapped. He lunged forward in attack. Yuki a little shocked blocked it (as usual) with his arms. The two stayed paused in that scene, both panting in anger. There eyes locked icy purple with a blazing fire.
"You know I hate you!" Kyo shouted.
"If anything I should be saying that to YOU!" Yuki retorted. Before Kyo could do anything more, Yuki sighed and backed up. He turned from Kyo and headed toward his room.
"Hey where are you going I'm not finished!" Kyo called from where he was standing.
"To
my room! Where does it look like I'm going?"
"Coward!"
Kyo cried. Yuki turned back and starred at him with blank eyes.
"No you are just a waste of my time," Yuki slammed his door leaving a confused Kyo where they had just been standing.
Okay then Kyo thought. That had been fairly strange. He sighed remembering Tohru he smiled.
