Tohru's Problem- A walk in the woods

"Tohru," Yuki said staring at her leg and crying. "Tohru, please tell me what's wrong." But she couldn't, she just couldn't. First she was shocked that he had seen her, second she was ashamed of her condition, third she wasn't able to.

"Yuki I am so sorry for what I have done to you," Tohru said between tears. "Your reputation is ruined because you sacrificed it for me. They will be so weird around you now"

"Tohru," he tucked a stray piece of hair between her ears, "I wouldn't have done it if I didn't mind. I love you, I could never let that happen to you."

"I don't know how they found out about me living with you. I mean, unless Akina told them."

"Tohru," Yuki whispered, "I don't mind. I really don't. I think we might even be better off this way. They will leave me alone, and in fear of hurting me, they will leave you alone. But please don't do what you did anymore."

She nodded and scooted closer to wear he was sitting.

"Yuki," she said in a whisper, "I love you too."

Yuki had never had his heart flutter in his whole life till this moment. She loved him! He couldn't be happier, he could feel the joy with every ounce of his flesh. He began to cry again, this time from joy. He leaned in and began to kiss her.

Kyo was sulking up on the roof, he was very ashamed of how he had been fooled by that retarded rat's trickery.

'Well, at least he will get treated weird at school now.'

As he was thinking this to himself, he heard a door below open and shut. Tohru became visible from under the roof then crossed the woods into the forest. Wondering where she was going he got up to follow her when he heard the door open and shut again, but this time very quietly. He couldn't hear him, but he saw Yuki following Tohru, just out of her sight.

'Well,' he thought, 'I wouldn't want to break the chain, plus, I want to see what is going on.' So he followed them into the woods.

Kyo saw everything, but there wasn't a thing he didn't want to see. He saw under her socks then Yuki rushing out of the forests to talk with her, run his fingers through her hair, and then (to Kyo's dismay) kiss her.

He couldn't watch them kiss, he had to get out of this freaky perfectly kept garden he had never seen before. He had to leave this place, he wouldn't be able to stand it now that he knew how they felt about each other. He ran fast and hard, not stopping one time until he got to the house. He stumbled in, out of breath.

"Kyo? Is that you?" asked Shigure. Kyo didn't respond, but instead ran upstairs to gather what he would need. He couldn't believe it, something had been going on between Yuki and Tohru, so there was no chance for him. He could feel his heart throbbing throughout his whole body. He had to get out of here, he had to forget about her, he had to leave before he drowned in this horrible, luke-warm water.

Tohru and Yuki headed back to the house together, holding hands, Yuki still not fully knowing what had happened to Tohru. They didn't speak, but it was a comfortable silence.

The next day Tohru knew was going to be yet another bad one as she got out of bed. She guessed that Yuki would probably have a worse day then her, on her behalf. Kyo she didn't see at all getting ready for school, 'I guess he left early' she thought to herself.

The moment they walked through the doors they knew the rumors had already spread, every single person was staring at Yuki and Tohru. Arisia and Hana ran up to them immediately and said that they needed to speak to them, in private.

"YukiTohru," Hana said once they were in an abandoned classroom, "there are words going around the school. About the two of you."

"Yuki," Arisia said, "we are proud that you care so much for our Tohru that you would kill yourself, but please don't." She had a serious expression of guilt on her face. Yuki and Tohru laughed themselves into collapsing on the floor. Hana and Arisia looked at each other, completely confused.

"It (laugh) was (laugh) all (laugh) a (laugh) joke!" Yuki and Tohru said simultaneously.

"WHAT!"

It took Yuki and Tohru 30 minutes to explain the happenings of the previous night.

On the way to class Tohru and Yuki got separated, so Tohru made her way to class alone.

"Hey," said Akina, "gotta talk to you."

Tohru immediately recognized the voice of her sister, as it was her voice as well. But in her sisters voice was hatred. The voice of a slut.

"What the hell do you want?" Tohru immediately switched into I hate my sister mode.

"Whoa I thought you were the good girl," Akina said with a smirk. "Never expected you to cuss at your own sister. Show some respect for your elders!"

"MABE I WOULD IF YOU WERN'T SUCH A SLUT TO TELL ALL OF THEM WHERE I LIVED!"

"Hey now don't get upset."

Yuki had heard Tohru screaming down the hall and had now ran over to their first sibling fight ever.

"I HATE YOU AND I HATE DAD!" Tohru yelled as she slapped her sister on the side of the face as hard as she could, unaware that Yuki had heard her confession about the elusive dad. Tohru was beating the crap out of Akina and everyone stood watching.

"I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!"

Her assault was finally brought to an end when one of the teachers she didn't recognize grabbed her by the arms and pushed her against the wall. Her hair was messy from being flung side to side. She was laughing widely and Akina was sitting on the floor, very badly bruised.

"Tohru," said the teacher, "we are going to have to call your house to get them to pick you up."
