Chapter 18- The Ring on The Correct Finger
"Tohru please calm down." Kyo pleaded.
He gripped her hand tightly. Pull her closer and slipped the ring on her left hand.
"I love you Tohru." Kyo said as the ring slipped down her finger. She stopped struggling.
"Kyo!" she cried.
The back door open and slammed shut. Kyo looked to see Hatori, Shigure and Yuki standing in the kitchen looking worried and pissed.
"What are you doing?" screamed Yuki.
"Just wait." Kyo requested.
Tohru lost her strength and crumbled on the floor. Every moment she spent with Kyo flooded back. Happy times and sad times.
The memory of Akito ordering her memories erased flooded back. That day in his cambers. The tears fell over her. The pain she saw in everyone eyes.
She remembered Kyo. She remembered how drained he looked. How much sorrow filled his face.
'How could he?' Tohru thought. 'How could he hurt everyone like that?'
Everything started to make sense. She heard their concerned voices calling her name.
'I'm okay.' She thought. She remembered the fight she just had with Kyo. 'I'm going to be okay. He still loves me. He fought for me.'

"Hatori what's going on?" Kyo asked. They were at the Sohma estate. Tohru laid on a bed in Hatori's office. She lost conscious when the finger was put on her left hand.
"What happened?" Hatori asked.
"I came home and Tohru was there. I didn't know she didn't know. But I figured it out. I said my name was Kyo." Kyo began explaining. "The ring I gave her was engraved. It said love forever Kyo. So when I said my name was Kyo she looked at the ring. I tried telling her what we were. What we had. When I put the ring back on her she passed out."
"The ring it was a trigger." Shigure realized.
"Yes." Hatori agreed. "The ring was a sign of real love."
"But she was wearing the ring before. Why did it take so long?" Yuki asked.
"The hand." Kyo thought out loud. Everyone looked at him.
"The hand?"
"Yes the hand." Kyo repeated. "It was on her right hand before and she remember everyone else but me. But when I put it on her ring finger on her left hand she remember me."
"Did you say anything?" Hatori asked.
"Just I love you Tohru." Kyo answered.
"Real love." Shigure cried. "My little Kyo is growing up!"
"Shut up." Kyo demanded.
--------------------------------------------------
Tohru started to wake up a few days later. Her hand was tingling. She opened her hand and looked down at her hand. The ring lingered on her hand and bush of red hair were at her fingertips.
Smiling she gently began to play with them. Kyo looked up.
"Tohru." He cried. "Tohru's awake." Kyo called.
"Kyo." Tohru's weak voice sang.
Kyo dipped down to kiss her but lost his footing and slipped. Their chests crushed together and a puff of smoke…
