A/N: This story, if I hadn't told you, is based on a role play a friend and I did. I hope to be as exact as I can from memory of this role play. Some things are different, but what happens to Kyou in this chapter did happen, and with the same situation causing it. Just, in the role play he watched Tohru and Yuki.

[PM me if you wanna see a picture of Suri!

And I want to thank two reviewers I've noticed throughout all of these chapters: cm1000 and Ayjah. cm1000, your most current review was the longest review I ever gotten, pointing out all the things I wanted readers to enjoy. I love all my reviewers, but I love those who try reviewing EVERY chapter, letting me know they read it and enjoyed what I had written. I love you all.

Ya know what, where there is a letter, I WAS gonna let ya'll read it... But won't let me let you. So it's a cliffy per say.

The next day, Tohru had asked Suri and Kyou to run out to the store to pick up food for a soumen. Kyou sighed as snow clung to his pant legs, and he had to deal with a little kid… Suri. He turned to his left, and saw the blue haired wonder spinning on the pavement's ice. "Snow, snow, I love snow! Ah ha!" Suri continued spinning on the ice, and soon she fell on her bottom, just laughing.

"Jeez, and you were a gang leader?" Kyou groaned in annoyance as he helped Suri up. Honestly he loved seeing Suri like this, it made him want to laugh and smile. Being the cat, he shouldn't even love anyone. In less than three months he'd be isolated, as would Yuki, without knowing love or true happiness. Kyou ignored what Suri was saying, and scoffed walking on. His eyes were focused on the snow in front of him. "So lonely... Just like… Me…" He muttered, forgetting he was with crazy lady.

"You're lonely? But I'm right here, dumb ass." Suri said, rubbing her butt as she walked next to Kyou.

"It's nothing. I can't believe I let that slip, and to a moron like you even." He retorted, rubbing his head in confusion.

"Wish I were Tohru, huh? Yeah, well, she has that rat. You should have seen how they were looking at each other yesterday. It was so disgusting to--" Suri shut up. Before she knew it, Kyou shoved the shopping list into her arms, and ran off. Why is he running, that dumb ass! Doesn't he learn anything from my mistakes? Suri shouted mentally, and she hushed herself, seeing the cat jump into trees.

Suri sighed and continued to the shop. Inside the shop, she unzipped her sweater, being stuffy in the crowded mini mart, and she grabbed a basket. Why would Kyou run off like that? Was Suri right, did he love Tohru? Or was it more complex than that? He looked scared… Suri thought, unconsciously grabbing what Tohru had asked for.

"Uh, miss, you are staying into a distance… Are you alright?" A young man asked. He had white hair with black roots, and wore excessive jewelry. Yep, you guessed it, Haru said more than five words to someone he didn't know.

"What the hell do you want? Don't you see I'm more concerned for Kyou and not shopping!" Suri snapped. As soon as shopping slipped from her lips, she shoved past Haru, blushing profoundly, embarrassed of what she just blurted in public. Why me? Why did I say that... And to a stranger! Augh! Suri scolded herself as she placed everything on the shopping counter and waited for it to be tallied up.

"Ah, so you're Suri-chan?" Haru walked up after Suri when she left the store.

"Yes, I see that my name spreads fast in their family, when I don't know any one of them! Stop following me, will you, damn! Why are you following me, Cowboy?" She snapped.

"Cowboy… Where did you get that from? Do you know my zodiac or something?" Haru asked.

"Eh? You're hair… HAHAHA! YOU'RE A COW? OH, GOD THAT'S FUNNY!" Suri broke out laughing, and Haru sweat dropped at her reaction, and continued walking, as did Suri. When she calmed down, she watched Haru's movements. He was the weirdest Sohma yet, though they were all pretty weird, but he topped the cake so far.

"Wasn't Kyou with you earlier?"

"He ran off after I teased him about Tohru. Terror was in his eyes. It was really… Eerie, ya know? Like a child just finding out his or her dream idol was a fraud." Suri admitted.

"Tohru was the first non Sohma to show her love towards him. Being the cat, he has three, not two, forms. One is the side every girl at our school sees, then there's Orange Furball of Doom, and then… Monster form. His stench apparently makes you vomit -- Tohru-kun did according to Shishou-san. But I guess she is a mother figure to us all. He's afraid of losing her to his rival, I guess." Haru sighed.

"Jeez, why are you so… Smarty pants-like, when in reality you give off the 'dumb as a bull' appearance."

"Yeah, well, you know what? You suck." Haru sighed.

"Yes. Yes I do." Suri sighed as she walked towards Shigure's house, with Haru still following. Guess he's a visitor today. Suri thought to herself as she opened the door and slipped off her shoes. "I'm back! Haru's here… Hey, what's this…?" Suri set the bags on the table, next to a quickly-written letter written by Yuki.

"Huh? Suri-chan, what's wrong?" Haru asked.

"Screw the d-dairy products. Cowboy, you handle this!" Suri shouted in sadness as she shoved the note at Haru and slipped her shoes on. "I-I'll be at the Shi-Shibuya hospital. Come when you can." Suri said, wiping her eyes with the sweater she hadn't even taken off yet. She opened and shut the door, and was sprinting as though she were being chased by a couple of goons with a couple of automatics.

Oh, God, you better damn well be okay! When you get out of that stupid hospital, you are DEAD MEAT! Suri cried as she ran down the streets, dodging cars, ignoring street lights -- making her even more likely to be seeing Kyou in the operating room and not the recovery.

I'm so sorry!
