"Over My Head (Cable Car)" – The Fray
I never knew
I never knew that everything was falling through
That everyone I knew was waiting on a cue
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
But that's how it's got to be
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy
I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
Let's rearrange
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage
Just say that we agree and then never change
Soften a bit until we all just get along
But that's disregard
Find another friend and you discard
As you lose the argument in a cable car
Hanging above as the canyon comes between
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
And suddenly I become a part of your past
I'm becoming the part that don't last
I'm losing you and its effortless
Without a sound we lose sight of the ground
In the throw around
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves
And everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
Everyone knows
She's on your mind
Everyone knows I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
I'm in over...
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind

Kyo looked up from the book in hands as Haru nudged him. Torhu hadn't been there the last few days and Kyo was working on hiding his worry. He looked towards where Haru was grinning and relaxed at the sight of Torhu waking towards them. He stood after shutting his book and walked over to her. She held a small bundle in her arms and Kyo gave her one of his classic crooked smiles.
"Welcome back Torhu." He greeted. She just grinned up at him and laughed.
"Good to see you to Kyo! Look! Isn't she so cute?" She asked happily. Haru had walked over by then.
"She's adorable!" Came Haru's response. "Hey Torhu!"
"Hey Haru. Isn't she though?" She handed the little babe over to Haru and Kyo couldn't help but chuckle.
"What did you name her?"
"Sabra… she'll be a fighter some day…" Torhu replied, her smile directed lovingly at her daughter.
"She's beautiful Torhu…"
Later that day Haru had left and it had begun to drizzle. Kyo and Torhu found refuge in the same café they had met in only nine months back. Sabra had fallen asleep and the two just sat in silence for a bit. Torhu felt, well, comfortable around him. She trusted him. If he said it was safe to jump off a bridge she would have believed him. Looking over at him he returned her gaze.
"Kyo… thank you." He blinked.
"For what?"
"For being here… for helping me. I don't think I could do this on my own. But knowing I can see you… that's enough to get me up every morning. That and raising Sabra. I owe you a lot." Kyo kept a level gaze and just blinked, letting all she just said soak in.
"I think you'd do fine with out me… You'd find some one." She just smiled and shook her head.
"Nope! No one's you Kyo. And… believe me… I wouldn't have it any other way." Kyo looked away briefly and just nodded.
"Then you don't have to worry about me leaving…"

((Present day))
"Kyo… you know as well as I do that if it hadn't been for Torhu… you wouldn't be here today."
Kyo thought over Haru's words as he rolled over onto his back. It was some time well after midnight and still he couldn't sleep. He rubbed the bridge of his nose and brought his right hand up. He looked at the flesh on his wrist and frowned. White scars marred the tanned skin. His left wrist was the same. One long line of white traced from the heel of his hand down to near the elbow on both arms. Haru had been the one that had found him that time. Had it not been for his best friend, he might have succeeded that day.
Kyo used to wish for death. Haru knew it. Kyo remembered how he'd felt when he'd first met Torhu. He couldn't have cared less if he lived or died. And then as he got to know her all he wanted was to be with her. It dawned on Kyo just what Haru had meant. Torhu had given him something to live for.
He sighed and closed his eyes. A single tear rolled down his cheek and he rolled over onto his side. Looking around the dark room his eyes came to rest on Sabra's crib. His gaze softened and closed his eyes, willing sleep to come.

Kyo looked over at Yuki and frowned. Yuki returned the gaze. Haru was looking between the two and watching, hoping Kyo wouldn't kill the other. He knew these two didn't get along well.
"Kyo…"
"Yuki…"
"Yuki! Be nice! Kyo you to!" Torhu said, stepping out of the building. Yuki glanced at his sister and his frown deepened.
"You can't seriously be wandering around with these two… they're about as reckless as you can get." Yuki growled.
"What was that?" Kyo ground out. Haru stepped between the two and started pushing Kyo back and asking Torhu if she was ready. She nodded and said good-bye to her brother before following after them. Yuki scowled.
"I can't believe it… you're related to Yuki?" Haru asked. Kyo rolled his eyes.
"Haru you're drooling…" Haru stopped and wiped his hand along his jaw and frowned.
"So?" he asked. Torhu looked at the two confused.
"Haru… I thought you had a girlfriend…"
"I do."(1) He answered. "It's just when something that fine walks into your life you don't ignore it!" Kyo once again rolled his eyes.
"Now what would Rin think if she heard you say that?" Haru thought about for a minute and then laughed sheepishly.
"She'd kill me…"
"Damn right she would." Kyo added. Torhu shook her head and checked on Sabra. She was still sleeping. It was a miracle.
…………………………..
((Present day))
Kyo sighed and opened his e-mail once again. He didn't see anything so far. Nothing from his cousin. Probably a good thing. He still wanted to kill the guy after the last e-mail he'd received. Kage was still going on about how Torhu didn't deserve him and how it wasn't his fault she was knocked up. All Kyo wanted to do was strangle him. He shook his head and opened the first one. He stopped dead.
To whom it may concern…Hello Kyo… long time no see. How have you been? I've been locked away for the last half a year. Some of my old friends told me all about the girl. You didn't think I'd let you forget that easily did you? I have one thing to ask though, now that I'm out. Kyo… is Sabra carefully watched?
An old friend
Kyo exited out and shut off the computer. He stared at the blank screen in shock for a few seconds before picking up the phone and dialing Haru's number while he walked into his room where Sabra was still sound asleep.
"Hello?" Rin picked up.
"Rin? It's Kyo. Where's Haru?"
"The living room. Let me get him." There was a brief silence.
"Yo Kyo! Where's the fire?"
"Haru…Rojke's back…"
(1) I'm following the book in the fact that it seems like Haru has a crush on Yuki... so yeah...
