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/Tohru, and a bit of Kyo/Tohru
-------------------------------------------------------------------
But after a few steps her bare foot slipped on the roofs shingles. Kyo's heart stopped for a moment. It was as if all sound was turned off and all he could hear was the rapid sound of his heart beat as he watched Tohru fall downward towards the end of the roof. He reached out to grab her but her body was already falling towards the hard cement. Her blue eyes were wide as she let out a small scream. Kyo fell forward to catch her
They both tumbled to the ground.

Yuki and Shigure bodies both stopped as the sound of a feminine yelp rang through their ears. Their hearts stopped for a minute as a loud sickening thump of a body hitting pavement echoed the small grunt of pain. They both dropped what they were doing and ran out the door. Their minds going imagining everything that could've happened, they ran and looked at the two bodies, their eyes wide.
Blood. Tohru. Blood.
That was all that was going through Yuki's mind as he kneeled by her body; her legs lay on across Kyo's middle. He couldn't believe this was happening. The girl just had to go and fall right when he wasn't there. He could already hear Shigure on the phone with Hatori. Yuki gazed down at her face. Her eyes were shut tight, her body rigid. He felt his heart retch with worry and guilt as he gapped at her.
"Tohru! Tohru please open your eyes!" he voice cracked and strained with unshed tears that forced themselves to his eyes. "Tohru!" he yelled again. She opened her eyes half way looking over at Yuki, her face filled with pain.
"You called me by my first name." She let out a smile genuine smile. Yuki almost let those tears fall as he watched her smile even when it was obvious she was in pain. He took her small hand and held it between his bigger ones.
"What happened, Tohru?" he said franticly. Her eyes started to become unfocused as they blurred. Her head was throbbing and her body hurt. She could vaguely remember what happened after she fell.
"Clumsy as always…." She gave a half heart smile again. Her eyes held worry as she remembered Kyo jumping down after her. She looked at Yuki with worry. "Yuki please help Kyo… he…" her vision blurred and hazed as her body worked itself, "…he…must…..be…" her body finally took the strain as her adrenaline died down, leaving the pain to come on full force. "..hurt.." She passed out.
"Tohru! Tohru!" Yuki shook her. As he did a black car pulled up, Hatori ran out of the driver's seat and kneeled next to Yuki, checking her and Kyo's pulse. His face was serious but his eyes held unspeakable worry as he saw the blood on the concrete where Tohru's head lay.
"Let's get them inside." He said. Yuki could only nod, cradling Tohru's small, limp hand to his cheek.
------------------------------------------
Tohru opened her eyes and looked around. As soon as she sat up, pain soared through her back and she was back down. Yuki rushed into the pink clad room, his face etched with worry. She was still in her same clothes but now was lying in her room. From across the room she could see in the mirror that she had a bandage wrapped around her head. Her face was pale against the bright pink of the sheets. Yuki kneeled down next to her bed. His hand on top of hers.
"You shouldn't move yet, Honda-san." He said concerned. She looked at him with confused eyes; it surprised her, his formality with her as she recalled him calling her Tohru just moments before. She laced her fingers with his, making him blush a little.
"Why do you call me Honda-san now?" she asked, he looked at her strangely, "I like you calling me Tohru like before." She smiled at him. He nodded,
"As you wish, Tohru." Just then the dragon let himself in with Kyo walking slowly behind him. His orange head was wrapped in a bandage also. He had several gaze pads tapped to him along with some band-aids. Tohru sat up, wincing as the pain hit her but dismissed it. Not missing the pain in her face, Yuki and Hatori rushed and helped her sit up.
"Kyo! Are you alright? Oh I'm so sorry, it's all my fault you're hurt." Her face crumbled as tears started to form and fall down her now flush cheeks. Kyo watched her in horror as she cried for him. He walked up to her and placed a gently hand on her head.
"Don't cry. I'm fine. I'm just glad I took some of the fall for you." He said roughly, still trying to sound tough. But his façade was shot as she looked up at him with her bright smile, crystal tears still there. He blushed and turned away. Hatori took this time to look at the girl in the eye.
"Tohru, we need to look at your back, not to make you uncomfortable but I think everyone needs to see what we're dealing with, knowing what is too much strain to put on your body. If you don't mind I need you to pull your shirt over your head and keep the sheets up in the front of you and face the wall." Her face flushed at the idea of her shirt being half off in front of all of them but nodded anyway, after all, Hatori was a doctor. She turned to the wall slowly and lifted the back of her shirt over her head, moving her hair over her shoulder, and exposed her back to them. She heard them all let out a gasp. Yuki looked at his angel's back shocked. Kyo looked at it, his face filled with guilt. Shigure and Hatori's face were serious as ever.
Her back was adorned with black and blue bruises. On her right shoulder blade was a large blue and purple bruise that traveled all the way to the middle of her back where her pink bra strap was. Smaller bruises were scattered on her sides and spine. On the left side on her shoulder blade was another large bruise that was almost black, it stretched from her shoulder blade to at least 5 inches down her left side.
"Now, Tohru I'm going to touch them, and I want you to tell me which one hurts the most." Hatori said. Yuki glared at the man, darkness flooded his violet eyes.
"You're just hurting her, you bastard. Why do you need to do that?" he growled at the doctor. Kyo and Shigure were surprised at Yuki's attitude. He never looked like this; he never let himself get this mad before.
"So we know what side we can tell her and the school not to strain and be careful of. You still have physical education don't you?" Hatori said in a warning tone. Almost telling him not to try anything and let him do his job. Yuki looked down, his hair covering his eyes.
"Yes…let me do it. She trusts me more, and I don't trust you." He said. Hatori and Shigure took that as he wouldn't let anyone touch, let alone, hurt Tohru. The doctor nodded as Yuki kneeled behind her and placed his fingers on her back lightly. Kyo turned away, unable to watch his rival touch the woman he loved so tenderly.
"This is going to hurt Tohru-kun." He said softly. She nodded,
"I know Yuki-kun would never hurt me purposely." She said cheerfully. Everyone felt a pang in their hearts to see such a sweet girl be hurt this way. Yuki placed two fingers on the large bruise on her left shoulder and gently pressed. She let out a small yelp of pain, as soon as it happened Yuki began to rub the bruise softly with the lightest of touches. She calmed down, her body relaxing.
"Only a couple more, Tohru." Hatori said as he pointed to the one on her spine, Yuki nodded. He rubbed her back still then pressed on the bruise on her spine. She let out another yelp. Yuki went back to caressing lightly, soothing her.
"Now which hurt more?" Hatori said
"The first one." Hatori let out a breath. Everyone looked at him,
"If the one on her spine hurt her the most it would mean we would have to bring her to the hospital for an x-ray." He explained. The all then sighed in content that she didn't need to go to the hospital. They did a couple more small ones but she just flinched. Finally, Yuki looked at the blue and purple one on her right shoulder, it almost look black now. Hatori nodded to him as the rat placed his fingers on the rather large bruise. He pressed. She let out a high pitched yelp, her knuckles turned white as she fisted the blanket. They all watched in pain as her shoulders shook. The first thing that went through Yuki's mind was,
'I made her cry.' He placed his hand on her fisted on and lifted it to his cheek and with the other hand he caressed her back lightly. Kyo came up to the crying girl and put his hand on the side of her head and leaned his head against hers. They knew they couldn't hug her but damn it if they didn't come close. They whispered comforting words as she cried, the pain subsided and her eyes became heavy. She laced her fingers with Yuki's and rested her head on Kyo's and soon she was asleep. Hatori walked over to Shigure by the door,
"Let's let her rest. Come Kyo, Yuki." He called in his monotone voice. Kyo moved back and placed her softly on the bed. She turned toward them unconsciously; her left hand was still gripped around the blanket on her chest, as her right hand with in Yuki's. Yuki began to pull away slowly but she held on fast pulling the back of his hand to her lips like she would a teddy bear. Yuki blushed. Shigure smiled at him,
"Well it seems our flower as picked a sitter for herself tonight. Good luck, Yuki. Do everything I would do." A loud smack rang through room as Kyo used the dog's head as a new punching bag. Yuki glared at the perverted man, and then turned back to Tohru. He stared at her blissful face as her long eyelashes lay on her cheeks; she looked like a small child. Her small pale fingers gripped his hand as her pink velvet lips lay against back of his hand. He heard the door close softly as the others left him in the dark with his princess. The boy knelt by her bed side as he laid his head on the bed beside hers. Half lidded blue eyes met violet ones. Her face clearly read that she was half asleep; her voice was low and mumbled,
"Yuki?"
"I'm here."
"I…love you…Yu…ki…" She mumbled as her body was over come with sleep once again. He could hear his heart in his ears as it beat wildly. She said it. She actually said she loved him. Of course she was half asleep but she still said it. The words left her delicious mouth. He smiled, almost grinned as he kissed her nose lightly.
"Good night, my princess." He whispered as he laid his beautiful head onto the pink sheets next to her sleeping face. He loved her being this close to him, sure it would've been better if they were in the same bed, but for now, this was good enough. And for the first time in years…
He felt good enough.
