Secrets of a Love Struck heart

Chapter 6 – Graduation

Kyo's POV

When I woke up the next morning I was really stiff. For the first 2 minutes that's all I could think about. Than I looked over at Tohru and I remembered what had happened last night as well as what day it was.

Then I decided that I had to tell her. 'Boy this is going to be hard.' To wake her up I kissed her passionately. 'Man, I'm going to miss these kisses.' When I pulled away she opened her eyes and made a smile that made my heart melt.

"Well that was a nice wake up call." She said with shining eyes. Then I got off of her and sat there and watched the sun come up in the distance. I had to tell her now.

"Tohru, what I am about to tell you, is against my will, ok?" I asked looking at her. She nodded. She seemed to know that this was serious. I took a deep breath. "It has been tradition that all people cursed with the cat are to go live with the head of the family, which right now is Akito. There is a way to get out of it though. If the cat can beat the rat then the cat is in the zodiac and does not have to live with the head. The also have a time limit to beat them by. It's the night of the Graduation." I stopped to catch my breath, "But I have not beaten him so at the end of Grad…" I stopped. I didn't dare look at Tohru. Soon I felt a head on my shoulder and an arm around mine.

I looked at her. She had tears in her eyes and yet I saw sympathy. She seemed to understand. Then she said something I thought I would never hear. Two simple words that mean so much to me.

"I'll wait." She said. I felt touched but at the same time sad.

"I…I can't…" She gave me a look that said 'Shut up'

"I'm not asking," She said, "I'm telling. I love no other than you Kyo Sohma and that's final." I looked at her bewildered. Then she kissed me and stood up. "I have to start breakfast. You coming?" She asked. I looked at her.

"Sure, I'll help." After that I spent every moment possible with her. The only time I wasn't with her was when we went to get our outfits for Grad. I apparently am not aloud to see her until Grad until it was time to go.

Before Graduation

Kyo's POV

As I stood there, my hand's starting to sweat. Then I started to fidget in my tux which was very uncomfortable mind you.

Finally after about 15 minutes, it felt like forever, Kisa came out side.

"They say she's ready." Little shy Kisa said.

"Ok. Thank you Kisa." I said. Just than the door opened to what looked like a goddess.

There and angel dressed in a light sparkling blue floor length dress that flares out at the bottom. She had sparkling lip-gloss on, that looked good enough to kiss, as well as sparkling eye shadow. With a light blush to make her the cutest girl ever.

"Wow… you look… you look…" I couldn't get a strait answer out.

"Thanks." Tohru said blushing.

"Shall we?" I asked holding my arm out.

"Yes we shall." Tohru replied by taking my arm. I escorted her to the car and helped her in. Soon we were on our way.

Graduation

Kyo's POV

"Are you nervous?" I asked Tohru.

"Yes." She replied

"Kyo Sohma." My name was called. As I walked across the stage I saw Akito. 'I sure hope he let's me stay for prom.' I thought.

After a while Tohru's name was called. I watched as she walked across. She kept her eyes glued to mine and only gave the professor a small smile when she accepted her diploma but after she just walked right on past him to me. She was to late. Akito got in the way.

"Yu weren't thinking you were going to say good bye did you?" Akito asked with venom in her voice.

"The least you could do is be a decent man and let me say food bye." Tohru begged.

"Oh, but I'm not a decent me Tohru and you'd be wise not to mess with someone like Kyo. You see Kyo may say that he loves you but in reality the only one he loves is me."

'I hate him.' Was all I thought.

"Kyo why don't you run home and gather your stuff." He said a little too sweetly.

All I could do though was turn around and walk away. I hoped with all my heart that Tohru wouldn't follow me but no such luck.

"KYO!" She yelled after me. I then took a sharp turn to the right and ripped off my bracelet, and then collapsed.

I could feel the beast taking over me. I could not believe what I was doing but I had run out of ideas.

"KYO!" Tohru was right behind me. I turned around in my true form and roared at her. I hated the look on her face.

She just walked over to me and collapsed, getting mud on her dress. Then she hugged herself and started bawling. I hate it when she does that. All I could do was stand there.

When she started to calm down she started talking in barly a whisper. "I love you Kyo. Even if what Akito said is true I don't care. I love you and even though you don't want me to, I'm going to wait for you until you get back." When she finally stopped crying and talking she stood up.

I watched as she walked towards me and before I could do anything I felt her body pressing against mine. ((A/N I don't know if he can transform in his true form)) "I love you no matter what form you're in." She cried into my chest.

Then for some unknown reason my monster form seemed to accept her and wrapped his arms around her. "I love you to." Then I felt myself change from monster to human to cat.

For a while we just sat like that. Then she picked me up in my ruined tux and held me tightly as we started on my last walk ever with her.

That has to be the longest chapter I have written so far. A real tear dripper. Anyway please review!
