"Nnn…" I groaned, stretching and suddenly sensing something warm across by waist. I placed my hand on it and followed it up to something on front of me. Smiling to myself, I nestled closer to the warm object. But then I heard a groan from the object as well. Slowly, I lifted my eyelids to see what it was. It was Kyo.

At the same time as I opened my eyes, he too lifted his eyelids, staring back at me for a moment. Then, a rosy blush bloomed on his face, and he leapt up, hyperventilating. I didn't make to get up, I was still tired.

"Looks like no one attacked… again." Kyo said, staring at me from the polar opposite of the bed, nearly off the edge, with only his boxers on. We had been like this for about a week now, waiting for a chance to get a plane to Obihiro. We had missed the first plane. Even so, I felt my face heat up and supposed that I should probably get up and out of bed, especially with Kyo (barely) in it. "We're going to be late for the plane…"

I looked over to the clock, gasping at the time. "Oh my God, you're right!" I said, running over to my dresser and plucking out some clothes and rushing into the bathroom. I changed in roughly a second and burst out of the bathroom to see Kyo in a set of handsome clothes I had bought him, folding the ones he had come in.

"I-is that your graduation gown?" Kyo nodded, blushing slightly. I look away sadly, trying to remember. "I lost my memories on graduation day, I think."

"That's when I left…" Kyo muttered, his eyes downcast. I looked to him, wondering what he was talking about. In all my memories of him, I never remembered anything about him leaving.

"Left for what?" He shifted uneasily, pulling a key out from his sleeve (geeze, I dunno, he can't have any pockets). It was old and rusty, but you could still see a bit of bronze on it, which gleamed evilly.

"Akito locked me away because I'm the cat." Slowly, he made his way over to me, holding out the key. I took it, a shudder going through my body. Something about this key was both sinful and holy. "This is the key to the cage." So… that's why this key is so… formidable, for the lack of a better word. It had the power to lock people, innocent people, away forever, their life ruined. But then, it had the chance to free them, to set a poor jailbird free. This key was powerful, no doubt, and Kyo gave it to me of all people.

"This key… it's so powerful. Thank you, Kyo." I grabbed my black coach purse, slipping the key into the hidden compartment.

"We better get going, Tohru." He grabbed my hand small hand in his larger, calloused one, pulling me out the door, along with my huge suitcase. Soon, we were down on the street, hailing a cab.

I sighed in anxiety as Tohru and I pulled up to the curb of Tokyo Airport in a bright yellow taxi. My short time with her was to end soon. I couldn't go on that plane, not without endangering her. With my bright orange hair and the great chance of turning into my feline form, I would stick out like a sore thumb, and if she was with me, so would she. So, I would have to wait here, wait and hope for her return.

"Come on, Kyo-kun!" She said, her voice startling me from my train of thought. I stepped out of the cab, pulling her suitcase out of the trunk while she paid. I felt low to let her pay, but I didn't have any money, and she had a lot of spending room, as could easily be said by the expensive-looking clothes she was wearing.

We got through security without trouble, except for the very embarrassing part when I had to be patted down by a female officer, yes, that of the opposite gender, because I had forgotten about the tiny photo frame I kept in my back pocket. In it was a picture of Tohru, right before graduation.

"Kyo-kun, why do you have a picture of me?' She had asked, and the security guard has walked away laughing after she saw my face.

"Wow, this place is huge, Kyo-kun!" Tohru called her eyes wide as she stared around the terminal, looking from a Starbucks to a souvenir shop.

"Careful, Tohru," I said, watching her as she bounced around, staring in all the windows. Soon, she was masked by a crowd and I couldn't see her anymore. "Tohru!" This was making me very nervous… "Tohru!?!"

"I'm here, Kyo-kun." She said from behind me, startling me out of my wits. I sighed of relief, until I saw a familiar face, straining to see where the small commotion had come from.

"Tohru, duck!" I pulled her down with me below the hoards of people waiting for their flight.

"What's going on?" She asked, but before I could answer, a foot stopped right before us. Looking up slowly showed me it belonged to none other than who we were hiding from. Yuki.

"Kyo? Honda-san?" The man asked, surprised. His purple eyes and pale face showed surprise as we stood us guiltily. I recognized him; he was in one of my dreams.

"Yuki-kun…?" I ask, not sure if I had placed the right name on him. He smiled politely, his eyes, however still dancing in surprise.

"It's such a surprise to see you here. Especially you, baka neko." Kyo growled at this. "I didn't know the curse had broken for all of you."

"All of us?" Kyo asked, mimicking Yuki's last sentence. "You mean your curse was lifted!?!" Anger simmered in his voice, his hand that I didn't know held mine tightened hard.

"Kyo-kun, please…" I said, but he didn't listen. The two started arguing and two other people found their way over to Yuki's side. One was a girl with brown hair and brown eyes like mine. She had looped her arm in Yuki's, kissing him on the cheek to try and distract him. I hadn't worked. The second one was a man with light blonde hair, who immediately interrupted the fight.

"Kyo, so this is where you are! When Akito said you escaped from the cell and locked him in it I thought the worst would happen to you." All eyes turned to him.

"What!? He escaped from the cell!?" Yuki asked, his eyes taking in Kyo's look. He still had the head bandage on…

"And he locked the head of the house in…" The girl said, a blank look on her face, still clinging onto Yuki.

"All for me? That so sweet…" Before I knew what I was doing, I planted a short kiss on Kyo's lips. His beet red blush brought me back to my senses and I felt my face heat up. Well, that and the others' collective giggling.

Kyo's eyes were glazed over, his lips in a small smile. But then, they widened unbelievably, his mouth hanging agape. I followed his gaze and probably donned the same look.
