So Who's It Gonna Be, Tohru? Ch. 5
------------
Not much to say this time but thanks for keeping reading!

Yes, Kyo got some money and followed Yuki and Tohru into the theatre. He sat 2 rows behind them.
Kyo: If Yuki so much as taps Tohru I'll pummel him with popcorn!
The commercials start and Yuki does nothing.
Kyo: C'mon Yuki...
The movie begins.
Kyo: This is a scary movie, he's bound to try something with her.
While watching the movie, Yuki and Tohru reach into the popcorn at the same time.
Kyo: Ahah!
He reaches into his own and throws a big piece square at Kyo's hand.
Yuki: Holy! What the---
Tohru: What happened?
Yuki: Something hit me.
Tohru: Just ignore it.
They put the popcorn on the floor and Tohru screams a few seconds later.
Yuki: What's wrong?
Tohru: So... scary...
Kyo whispers: Tohru, I'm here for you...
Yuki: Hold my hand. Just squeeze it whenever you get scared.
Tohru: Mhmm.
Kyo: Damn you, Yuki.
Kyo puts a piece of popcorn in his mouth and throws it at the back of Yuki's head, who doesn't even notice.
Kyo: You idiot!
He throws a few more pieces that get stuck in Yuki's hair, but he never says anything.
Throughout the movie, Tohru clutches Yuki's hand. While they leave, Kyo ducks under his seat so they don't see him.
Kyo: Guess I'd better go home.
-at home-
Kyo: Shigure, I have a question.
Shigure: Sure, I'm all ears.
Kyo: How do you get a girl to fall for you?
Shigure: Ooh, you got a special girl out there, eh?
Kyo: No! My friends needs some advice and---
Shigure: This is about Yuki and Tohru isn't it?
Kyo: NO!
Shigure: I won't tell you anything if you don't admit it.
Kyo: Wha? Huh? Fine! How do I get Tohru to fall for me?!?
Shigure: I knew it! Oh, young love, such nice memories.
Kyo: Just tell me what to do!
Shigure: Just woo her.
Kyo: I've already tried that!
Shigure: Maybe you didn't do it right.
Kyo: Well what am I supposed to do?
Shigure: Has Yuki kissed her yet?
Kyo: I don't... think so...
Shigure: Well there's your answer.
Kyo: I can't just go up and kiss Tohru!
Shigure: Why not?
-next day, Yuki let Kyo walk with Tohru-
Kyo: Tohru, I'm kinda tired, could we take a nap?
Tohru: Okay, I'm a little tired, too.
They both sit side by side leaning on a huge tree. Kyo waits until he hears Tohru's sleep-breathing pattern.
Kyo whispers: Tohru, what would you do if I told you I loved you? Would you say it back? Reject me? What would you do if I just kissed you? Would you hit me? Run away? Maybe return the kiss? Who do you care for more, me or Yuki? Do you really even care about me at all? Tohru... may I kiss you?
Kyo slowly brings his head closer to Tohru's. He lowers his head and carefully presses his lips against hers for a few moments then pulls away. He stares at her for another minute and then puts himself to sleep. Hours fall away then...
Tohru: Kyo? Kyo, wake up, it's almost night!
Kyo: (opens his eyes slowly) Tohru?
Tohru: Yeah?
Kyo: You're not mad?
Tohru: About what?
Then Kyo remembers that she was asleep when he kissed her.
Kyo: Oh, nothing, yeah, let's go.
Tohru: Okay!
-back at the house-
Shigure whispers: Hey Kyo, get over here!
Kyo sneaks over to Shigure's work room.
Shigure: So? Did you kiss her?
Kyo: Yes.
Shigure: What? Did she reject you or something?
Kyo: No.
Shigure: Then why are you so down?
Kyo: Because... she was asleep.
Shigure: Oh, you little dog! The classic Sleeping Beauty move, eh? Slick. And she doesn't even know it.
Kyo: That's the problem! I'm too much of a friggin' wimp to do it while she's conscious! What if Yuki gets to her first?!?
Shigure: Why can't you just do it?
Kyo: Because... I'm afraid...
Shigure: Of what?
Kyo: Of rejection.
Shigure: But isn't rejection better than never knowing and having Yuki get to her?
(A/N: Okay, I shouldn't have said this cuz to tell y'all the truth I liked this guy for a year being afraid of rejection but the last week of school I told him [my best friend and now we're together so it's all good)
Kyo: I guess so...
Shigure: Then just kiss her!
Kyo: I have to tell her how I feel first.
Shigure: Whatever, do what you want.
-hop to two days later-
Kyo: Hey Tohru... what would you do if somebody told you they loved you?
