I thought of this after watching Episode 15 when Yuki was smiling at Tooru and Kyo gave them that jealous/longing look and turned away. But I'm a big Yuki/Tooru fan so this fic will be no different.
Rated: PG-13 for sexual innuendo, cussing etc.
Pairings: Yuki/Tooru, and a bit of Kyo/Tooru

Later- 6:30 PM
Yuki walked down the stairs to be greeted by a smiling Tooru. She was clad in her pajamas for the night which were a bright yellow with pink rimming, they looked cute on her, he thought. Hatori left awhile ago and Shigure took his place, sitting at the dinner table reading one of his books. The tapping of other feet were heard as Kyo made his way to the top of the stairs. They both slowly made their way to the table plopping down. Yuki rested his head in is arms on the table top while Kyo slumped with his chin in his hand. Both looked better then this morning but anyone could tell they didn't feel good.
"Think you guys can eat tonight?" Shigure said looking up from his book. They both groaned a pitiful response. "I thought not," he grinned broadly, "More for me!" He said as he began eating his meal. Tooru began eating but felt horrible since Yuki and Kyo were such bad shape. The sound of the door bell stopped her thoughts. She got up,
"I'll get it." She said cheerfully. She walked over to the door and opened it. Her blue eyes met a beautiful light violet, they almost looked a couple shades lighter then red. His face was soft but handsome, his hair was a dark red that was spiky and went to all sides and fell a little down his neck. He wore our school uniform but without the tie and the top two buttons undone. Around his neck was a chain with a small symbol the end. Tooru looked up at him and blushed as she flashed one of his charming smiles.
"You must be Tooru Honda," He stuck out his hand, "I'm Toshiro Seito, class 2-D, I brought your homework from office aid. I also brought Yuki and Kyo Sohma's. Are they home?" She smiled at him,
"Sorry for bringing you all the way out here, Toshiro-san. Yes, they're here, but they're not feeling well. They came down with the stomach flu this morning. Come on in." She moved so he could step in. He removed his black loafers and walked in.
"That's too bad, oh and Tooru-san? Call me Seito." He turned and smiled at her. She nodded,
"Yes of course, Seito-kun." She walked behind him as he entered the dinning room where the family sat. The men looked up at the new company. Seito smiled and place their home work on the table.
"Well hello there! Who might you be? Tooru's boyfriend?" Shigure said looking up at him. Seito blushed a lightly. Yuki and Kyo's head's shot up with new glares at the red headed boy.
"I wish I had a girlfriend as pretty as Tooru-san but no such luck. I'm single." Tooru blushed at his words, "I'm Seito Toshiro. I go to their school. I brought their homework for today."
"If you go to our school, why haven't I seen you before?" Kyo asked as Yuki grabbed his homework.
"I'm in class 2-D." He said a-matter-a-factly, not fazed by Kyo's suspicions. Yuki looked up at him,
"Thank for bringing our homework, Toshiro-san."
"No problem, besides just think if I didn't, I wouldn't have had the chance to see Tooru in her lovely attire." Tooru looked down at what she was wearing and remembered she was in fact in her pajamas. Her eye's widened as she shot up from her seat next to Shigure.
"Oh no! I look horrible! I'm so sorry! I'll go change now! I'm so sorry! I-" Tooru's ranting stopped as Seito placed a hand over her mouth and looked her in the eye close to her face. Yuki, Shigure, and Kyo all watched closely. The boys both got ready to shoot up and fight if needed. Tooru looked at him, her eyes wide in confusion.
"You done?" he asked. She nodded. "Good." He let go of her mouth, "Now you don't look horrible, in fact, you look very cute. Yellow suites you, it makes your eyes shine." He smiled flirtatiously as Yuki and Kyo stared with their mouth open, both thinking the same thing,
'Talk about being forward! Who does this guy think he is?!'
"Wow you really know how to smooth talk, Mr. Toshiro." Shigure laughed as Tooru placed her hands on her heated cheeks and sat back down. "Would you like to stay for dinner? We have plenty since Yuki and Kyo are sick." Seito laughed at the man.
"Tempting but I have to get home or my little brother will flip. Nice talking to you though." He shook Shigure's hand politely. Yuki and Kyo waited for him to stick out his hand or bow to them for a good bye but it never came. Their auras darkened as they realized what he was heading for as he pasted them.
"It was nice meeting you, Tooru-san. I hope we can see each other again sometime." He lifted her small hand in his and kissed the back of it. "I'll try and find you at school." He winked and walked out, placing his shoes on and closing the door behind him. Everyone stared at the door for a minute when Shigure's laugh pierced the tension.
"Oh my! It seems our little Tooru has an admirer! So," He placed his hand on his chin and looked at Tooru, "are you going to go out with him?" Yuki and Kyo stood quickly, both hitting Shigure equally hard.
"No she's not!" They both yelled. Tooru looked at them for a moment then Shigure dropped in again,
"Well he's bound to ask her out. Did you boys really think our cute, petite, kind, lovable Tooru would stay single for the rest of high school? I think not. Most high school girls lose their virginity, so it's only natural that our Tooru will become a woman someday." He perverted man giggled girlishly. Tooru's face turned a color that would rival a tomato. Yuki and Kyo both looked down at Shigure, their auras crackling with anger.
"Shigure you sick bastard." They both said in unison once again. Tooru got up and walked over to them,
"It's okay you guys…he was only teasing." Tooru said laughing lightly not sure if he really was or not. "Besides if you exert yourselves too much, you'll never get better." She walked up and placed a hand on both their heads. She grabbed both their hands and started up the stairs. She walked each of them to their rooms and closed the doors.
"Sleep." She said and walked down the stairs back to Shigure. The boys grumbled but complied. They both felt weird going to bed at 7:00… so after couple more trips to the bathroom to empty their already empty stomachs they soon fell asleep.
------------------------------------------
The Next Morning
"They both seem to be doing better; I think they will be able to go to school today." Hatori said putting his tools into his bag once again. He stood up, lifting his bag with him. "Just make sure if you get sick or fell like you are, you need to come straight home, who knows when you turn into your animal form." Tooru jumped up and clapped,
"I'm so happy I won't have to go to school alone! Let's go before we're late!" Yuki smiled at her wanting him to be with her. He didn't want her to be alone either but…it wasn't for her…it was a selfish desire. A selfish need that kept his sanity. It's not that he didn't want her to be alone. It was that he didn't want to be alone…or without her.
Kyo turned his head away from her stubbornly, "It's only a short walk." He said rudely. But really, he was happy too. He spent so much time alone before when no one wanted to come hear him that now he was spoiled. Tooru would always come and talk to him, sit with him, or check on him that now without her, he really did feel alone. He hated that feeling, he used to like his solitude but if he didn't see her…he felt… lonely.
Tooru walked out of the house smiling with her boys in tow. They got to the school in record time, at least 30 minutes before classes actually started. Uo-chan and Hana-chan or Saki and Arisa, waited in the hall for their friends to arrive, knowing something that they needed to tell Tooru about. Speaking of the devil, Tooru came walking down the hall smiling at her companions not too far behind. Both Saki and Arisa practically ran over to her.
"Someone's look'n for you, Tooru-chan." Arisa said one hand on her hip. "And he's better look'n then the "Prince"." Yuki looked at her when she brought up is nickname.
"I didn't that was possible." Tooru said absently. She placed a finger on her chin and thought of who could it be. Yuki blushed darkly as her words. Saki nodded,
"It seems that our "Prince" as also lost his fan club to this…" Saki thought for a minute, "king." She finished. Arisa turned and looked at her with a smirk.
"Very nice choice of words there, Hana-chan."
"Thank you."
"Ya, anyway it seems your knight in shining armor is look'n for you. He walked over with a smile and had all the little chickies follow'n him. He stopped and asked where you were and we said you weren't here yet. He's waiting in the room." Arisa looked at Kyo and Yuki, "you guys have competition." She smirked.
"Competition? What the hell are you getting at yankee?" Kyo said rudely. Arisa looked down at Tooru.
"May I borrow them for a minute?"
"Uh…sure..?" Tooru said confused. Arisa pulled Yuki and Kyo aside while Saki talked to Tooru.
"What is it, Uo-san?" Yuki said politely. She looked at Tooru then back at them with a serious face,
"I don't like this guy. I don't know who the fuck he is but I don't like him. He seems almost fake…like it's not really him but who he wants people to think he is. All I know is that I don't like him…and I don't want Tooru near him." She said. Yuki looked over at their innocent Tooru smiling sweetly at whatever Saki said.
"Let me guess, he has red hair, no tie, and the top of his uniform is unbuttoned, am I right?" Yuki said sternly. Arisa blinked.
"Ya, how'd you know?"
"We meet that ass hole. He was hit'n on Tooru like there was no tomorrow. It was sick." Kyo spat.
"Then I guess we're on the same boat." Arisa said. Tooru turned to them,
"Let's go see who it is!" She smiled and started down the hall. They all followed each one not liking it no more then the other. They made it to the door. Everyone in hall of classes was all surrounding a spot on the wall not too far from the door. They guess he got tired of waiting inside and came out. Over the heads of the girls, the handsome red head smiled at their direction and lifted a hand and waved,
"Tooru-chan!" He yelled over the crowd. He then turned back to the many girls, "Ladies, it seems my princess has arrived so why don't you all go back to your classes and I'll be sure to visit, eh?" They all swooned and flocked out in various directions, once all of them were gone; he glided over to Tooru,
"We meet again my fair princess; know that your knight has come to save you from the clutches of this monster and the prince who have captured you." He took her hand and kissed it softly. Kyo and Yuki seethed with anger.
"You sound as if we forced her to be with us." Yuki said giving him a look that was usually only for his brother. Seito looked from Tooru to Yuki, giving him a mirrored image of his glare. The red head smirked as he bowed mockingly,
"My apologies Prince Yuki, this humble knight has only come to borrow your princess. I mean no harm," His look transferred to Kyo, "I have not angered your monster have I?"
"Kyo-kun's not a monster. You shouldn't call him that." Tooru said defending Kyo. She placed a hand on Seito's shoulder. Seito turned and smiled at her,
"Of course not, I was just acting, princess. It seems that his orange hair made me think of fire thus of a dragon and it only fit being a prince in our midst. Simply acting." Tooru looked up at him with her big blue eyes. Seito looked down at her and was speechless of how cute she looked starring up at him like that which brought images of her under him starring at him like that.
"Well, acting or not can you please not call him that." Seito gulped. He knew that if she looked at him like that, she could get him to do anything regardless. Seito nodded and turned to Kyo,
"I apologize for my rude behavior, Sohma-san." He bowed politely. Kyo snarled and looked down at him,
"Ha, like I'd really fall for that bull shit. Say it again and I might have to show how much of a monster I can be." He warned cracking his knuckles. Seito stood up straight and gave a look that almost surpassed Akito's.
"I truly beg your pardon." Yuki and Kyo both glared at him with the yankee and physic backing them up. Tooru noticed the tension and started to panic,
"So! Seito you wanted to see me?" Seito turned smiling brightly, totally changing his mood.
"Well I was wondering if you'd like to get an ice cream with me sometime… maybe after school, today?" She gapped at him as did the rest of the group. He laughed, "My treat." Arisa, Kyo and Yuki all looked down at him (lighting in back round).
"No way in hell!" They yelled. Seito looked behind him with annoyance clear on his face,
"I think thats for her to decide." He said smoothly, putting his hands in his pockets. Tooru stood there then smiled,
"Sure!" She said happily. They all fell (anime style). "But I need to be back in time to make dinner." Seito nodded. Then an idea came.
"Oh! Also would you like-"
"TOORU! Why don't we go inside I think case will be starting any minute." Arisa said turning the girl around to the door. Saki followed behind,
"Yes we wouldn't want you to be late." They walked towards the door, Tooru turned and waved to Seito.
"Bye Seito-san!" He placed the back of his hand on his forehead,
"Parting is such sweet sorrow, until we meet again, we shall only dream of the day, my Juliet." Tooru giggled and blushed as they walked inside. Seito placed his hands back in his pockets and turned a hell, facing the rat and the cat once more. He smirked dangerously at them.
"Seito – one. Prince and cat boy? Zip." The words dripped off his tongue. Yuki stepped up to him,
"I don't know what we've done but leave Honda-san out of it." Seito leaned over so that he was only inches from his face then whispered in his ear.
"He took the flower from his hand
Though the proud man stood tall
For when the princess is gone
The prince shall fall." Yuki's eyes widened at his words. Seito walked past him not missing the chance to bump shoulders with his roughly. Kyo growled and pushed Seito into the wall. "You jack ass, who the fuck do you think you are!" Seito smiled and leaned next to his ear,
"Do you really think that Tooru is with you because of you? No she's only your friend because of Yuki. If it wasn't for him you wouldn't even be in her life. Now do you really think that she would ever like you let alone love you? Who would love a monster? She would much rather have a prince." This time it was Kyo's turned to be baffled. Seito took this time to shove Kyo off of him on onto the floor. Seito looked at them,
"Yes, I've figured you out. I've been hearing about you people constantly and I had a hunch and I guess I was right. Wow if only Tooru knew of the insecure prince and the monster who is scared of himself. I knew by the stories and your personality's that there had to be something wrong with the Sohma's, I guess really was right. Now listen carefully, I'm only going to say this once." He walked up to them.
"You stole my popularity. You stole my women. Now I will take what you hold dear, which I've come to like actually. I am the original prince of this school and the prince always gets what he wants and I want Tooru Honda, and if you get in my way I'll make you wish you never knew me." He turned and walked down the hall, his hands in his pockets, smirking all the way. Sadly it wasn't the words that shocked them, it was how true they were.
Yuki knew that without Tooru…his whole world would crumble. He wouldn't be the same. He would be alone. Stuck in darkness just like with Akito and the room. He wouldn't know what to do with himself. He was so in love with Tooru that he knew that if she ever left him…his heart and soul would go with her. Is this what Hatori felt when Kana left him? Yuki's heart retched and tightened at the thought of Tooru with that boy.
"Sorry Yuki-kun, but I'm with Seito-san now. I'll be moving in with him tomorrow."
If she ever said that…if she ever uttered the words "I'm in love with Seito-san" he would surely die where he stood. No she would never do that to him. She wouldn't leave him…Honda-san wasn't like that. She cared for him…didn't she…?
Kyo was thinking along the same lines. He also knew that he wouldn't be able to stay sane without Tooru. He was like an addict and she was his heroine. He was addicted to her voice, her touch, her kindness, her tears, her…everything. But Seito was right. He was tainted. Corrupted. A monster. Who could ever love a monster? Surely she would fall for a prince. But he dared to dream that even if she did not love him…he could still be able to still love her…She would stay by his side and make him smile, make him laugh, make him pull his hair out, make him cry…make him feel...like he belonged. Like he was somebody. She made him feel like a man…never has she made him a monster or hated him for being who he is.
"Yep I can see it, I can see it very clearly Kyo, you might not know it but you have a great big plum on your back. Yuki's admirable in his way and you're admirable in yours."
Admirable. Heh. That was a laugh. The only admirable thing he's done is not killing him self knowing that she was in love with his cousin.
"Are you okay? Did Seito go back to class?" Tooru came out of the classroom, her face reading a concerned. Yuki looked over at her and walked toward her. He extended his hand and held her small hand, smiling. Kyo turned to him and glared at him. Seito's words flashed through his mind. "Who would love a monster? She would much rather have a prince." He scowled as he got up from the ground. Kyo walked over and slapped Yuki's hand out from hers. The only thing that was in Kyo's mind was getting Yuki the hell away from his girl. Yuki turned to Kyo in anger, his hand shot out for a mere second then slap was heard down the halls. Tooru gasped.
"I don't who what the hell your problem is, but you better have a good explanation you stupid cat." Kyo looked at Yuki,
"She's not your girlfriend, so don't go acting like she is, rodent." Kyo took his fighting stance. Everyone in the class walked out of the room to watch. Yuki glared at Kyo,
"I don't know what's got you pissed but don't bring Honda-san in this. And for your information, I do not act like she's my girlfriend. She is a woman and I treat her as such, more then I can say for an ill mannered bastard like you."
"Maybe. Compared to a passive and depressed guy like you or did you forget that you ran away from the main house to sulk? You know what they say, misery needs company." Yuki's gaze darkened, he took a fighting stance also.
"Don't talk about things you don't know!"
"Oh? Did I hit a soft spot, you stupid rat?" Kyo spat. Yuki walked up to him so they were only inches apart like Seito was once before.
"Don't push it; I will make you regret it." Kyo smirked. He pulled his arm back and let loose. Yuki easily dodged it, and so the fight was on. Like usual Kyo through most of the punches but what surprised Yuki the most was how quick he was. His speed almost matched his. He knew it had something to with how mad he got. But what he couldn't figure out is why Kyo flipped out at him for holding Honda-san's hand. But now it didn't matter. Him bringing up Akito was unforgivable and will not be left unpunished. Yuki dodged another punch, he spun around and high kicked the cat in the mouth. Kyo staggered and stood his ground. Yuki took a stable stance and got ready for another go. This time Kyo got up fast. All of the sudden a voice rang through the halls.
"BOYS!"
