Hey! Hopefully that cliff hanger got you thinking, "OMG! What's gonna happen?!" Lmfao, well, anyways, this chapter is up. Haha, hopefully you enjoy it. It's gonna get INTENSE later in the chapters! Hahaha. x)) Enjoy!

Previously:

It was the last class of the day, HP Science. Yuki and Tohru took the same classes. Again, Machi was in the same class. She made an excuse to sit next to Yuki. Tohru sat next to Kyo. She had an uncomfortable feeling about Kyo.

"Hey Tohru."

Tohru just smiled and looked away.

In the middle of the class, they were in the middle of an experiment. Tohru was disposing a chemical away, when Machi 'accidentally' fell and pushed Tohru.

"Ahh!"

The chemical got all over Tohru's arm and it started burning her slowly.

"HONDA-SAN!" Yuki yelled.

Chapter 4:

Yuki stopped what he was doing and rushed over to Tohru. He pushed Machi out of the way to see what happened.

"Honda-san! Are you okay?!"

"I… It… hurts… Yuki-kun."

"Shh, don't say anything, I'll be back quickly. Sit here."

Yuki ran back to the class to get Sensei.

Machi was still there, and then she looked at Yuki, then at Tohru and said, "Ha, how does it feel Tohru?"

Tohru looked at Machi and said, "How? How did you… find me?"

"Hmm…. A little birdie told me."

Tohru was crying out the pain from the chemical burn. Machi looked around to see if Yuki was coming back, he didn't come back yet.

"Told ya, I'll get you sooner or later. Well, cya later… maybe… HAHAHAHA!"

Yuki and Sensei came out of the classroom and rushed over to Tohru.

Machi said, "Don't worry guys, I tried to ease her pain while you guys were away."

"Thanks Kuragi-san," both Yuki and Sensei said.

Yuki saw Tohru crying and covering her arm.

"Honda-san! It's gonna be okay now. Sensei's calling the ambulance right now, so everything will be okay. I'll be by your side. I'm sorry I was busy and left you alone again."

"It's… okay… I… forgive you…"

Tohru closed her eyes and the ambulance came.

"Honda-san! Honda-sannn!"

Few hours later, Tohru woke up and found herself in a hospital bed.

"Where…. Am I?"

"Huh? Honda-san, you're awake! You're in the hospital. You had a chemical burn on your hand. Remember?"

"Oh, yeah. I remember."

"Does your arm hurt anywhere."

"Uh… not right now, no."

"Kay, good. I'll be back. I'll go tell the doctor you're awake."

"Wait, Yuki-kun, I have something to tell you…"

"What is it?"

"Umm…. Thanks for taking care of me." (A/N: She was gonna tell Yuki about Machi.)

"Don't mention it Honda-san. I will always take care of you."

"Thank you, Yuki-kun."

Yuki looked at Tohru with his generous smile and went out to get the doctor.

"Why? Yuki always saves me from trouble. It feels like 'Death' is trying to get me, but then, there's Yuki, always there to save me. Why? Out of ALL people, it has to be Yuki. My parents are gone, and everyone keeps bullying me. Why should I care anymore? The only one who's left is Yuki. He cares so much, why? He's my best friend, the ONLY one I have left. Does he…. No. He wouldn't. He wouldn't love me, would he"

MEANWHILE:

Yuki was walking down the hallway and was thinking, "Honda-san always gets into some serious business. Why? Why does it ALWAYS have to be her? Even though she has no parents, why? Why does everyone make fun of her? She's just the same as everyone else. I… MUST find out what happened to Honda-san's parents. But, this feeling, I get… I don't know what it is, but… it's something about Tohru that just makes me… UGH, forget it, I have to find the doctor."

BACK IN THE ROOM:

Yuki and the doctor got back when Tohru was just unwrapping her bandage from her arm.

"Honda-san!"

"Oh, umm… it was hurting. Sorry."

"Don't worry, at least you're still okay and awake."

"Yeah, I am, huh, Yuki-kun."

"Doctor, what's her condition right now?"

"Well, it looks like, you, Miss Honda-san, will be perfectly fine. Sohma-san, don't worry. She'll be okay, as long as she doesn't go anywhere near heat or doesn't get injured."

"Alright doctor, thanks."

"Mm, no problem."

"Doctor, when will Miss Honda be discharged?"

"Tonight. You can take her home once the papers are finished."

"Mm."

The doctor left the room. Tohru was looking out the window and just thinking. Yuki was waiting impatiently for the doctor to come in.

"Yuki-kun?"

"Mm?"

"Does that mean I can't cook anytime soon?"

"Yeah, why ask?"

"I was going to cook your favorite dish."

"Oh, it's okay. You don't have to cook it right now. Let's just wait until you're completely healed first, kay?"

"Mm… But… It means that… I can't climb the sakura tree either, right?"

"Huh? You climbed a sakura tree?"

"Yeah…"

"When!? Why?!"

"During lunch, and just because… I was waiting, for you to come out, but you never did."

Yuki looked away and felt guilt all throughout his body, then he looked back at Tohru.

"I… I'm sorry."

"What were you and Machi doing? Exactly…"

"I was showing Machi around the school."

"It doesn't take THAT long, does it?"

"No, but we were talking to the teachers, so it kinda did."

"Oh, okay... Hey, whatever happened to piano practice?"

"I dunno. Maybe we were both so busy afterschool that we forgot."

"Haha, yeah. Are you free tomorrow afterschool?"

"Unfortunately, no. I have student council meetings tomorrow."

"Oh, I'll wait for you to finish, then we can head off to the music room."

"Sorry Honda-san, but I can't. The day after tomorrow we can play, for sure. But don't wait for me tomorrow, it's gonna be dark when I'm done with the meetings, so go on out first without me."

"Okay. I'll be waiting in the Music room the day after tomorrow. Thank you for taking your time for me."

"Mm."

That night, Tohru and Yuki walked home together. When they got home, there was a girl waving 'bye' to Kyo. Both Yuki and Tohru, had never seen that girl with Kyo before, so they both guessed he probably did 'that' to her. Yuki looked in disgrace and disgust of what his cousin became. Tohru looked scared of Kyo because her bedroom was across his bedroom.

"What happened to her? She left me doing the stupid experiment all by myself."

"You wouldn't care even if I told you."

"Ha, you're probably right. It wasn't anything too serious anyways. It wasn't like she was gonna die or anything."

"Kyo, you baka! She got a chemical burn on her arm! I don't know what has gotten into to you, but just BACK OFF!"

"You damn Yuki! You don't tell me what to do!"

Tohru interrupted their argument and said, "Okay, okay. Enough you two! I wanna go to sleep. I'm a bit dizzy from the hospital."

"Oh, sorry Honda-san. I'll take you to your room. Kyo has some business with his girls he has in his bedroom waiting for him. Don't you Kyo?"

"Shut up Yuki! You don't know my business!"

Yuki took Tohru to her room and made sure she was okay.

"Wait, Honda-san, let me redo your bandage on your arm."

"Oh, okay, uh… sure. Thanks."

Yuki redid Tohru's bandage and Tohru looked at Yuki.

Tohru said, "Yuki, why do you always help me?"

"Because, I want to, and I'm the only person you have left in the world. I will be there for you the rest of your life and I promised you I will protect you."

"I know, but still. I always get hurt somehow, and you always show up."

"Yeah, maybe God is telling me that I'm your savoir, huh?"

"Haha, yeah, probably."

"Alright, get some sleep. You'll need it for school tomorrow."

"Mm, good night Yuki-kun."

"You too, Honda-san."
