Chapter 6
"Akito no!" Tohru's footsteps rushing across the room echoed in Akito's ears as she slammed into his back. He stiffed in shock as she wrapped her arms around his body and squeezed tight. He stopped immediately his eyes wide with disbelief.
"Don't, don't do that!" She cried into his back as his hand slid down away from the wall. The red dots and streaks going unnoticed by him. She trembled against him, as he stood there completely dumbfounded. She…was afraid for him? Her concern for him brought warmth to him that he fought against with all his might. He leaned into her arms a little letting her support him as he struggled with his emotions.
Tohru pulled away from his back suddenly and he stumbled back a step at the absence of her support. He turned around to see tears streaming down her face and pained expression drowning out all emotions. She was raising her hand up as if to touch him.
"G-get away from me!" Akito burst out suddenly. He slapped his hand across Tohru's face sending her backward with a loud clap. The moment he saw her crumpled up on the floor he felt like dying. He hadn't wanted this; he didn't want to hurt her. At the sight of blood on her cheek he was nearly ready to scream but then he realized it was the blood from his hand.
Amazingly she sat up rubbed the blood from her cheek and started to rip at the ends of her sweater. Akito could only stare at her as she ripped the sweater into long shreds.
"W-what are you…." He whispered letting the sentence trail away as she stood and grabbed his wrist in a gentle grip. He allowed her to pull it closer to her as she wrapped the shreds of her sweater around his bleeding knuckles. She worked slowly, carefully. Spinning the torn cloth around his hand like a wheel.
At some point as Tohru wrapped his bleeding hand they sat down. Akito's eyes remained fixed on Tohru's faces as she stared at his hand rubbing away a few tears here and there. She looked pale and very sad but her eyes hinted the determination that made her so strong. Stronger then she realized.
She released one hand once her task was done and took up the other one without a word. She started to shred her sweater again until she just removed it. She wore a pink short sleeved shirt underneath that had small flowered design around the bottom. It looked very pretty on her.
When Tohru glanced up breaking his stare with her blue eyes he realized she had released his hand. He examined the two bandages then looked back at her with a sober look. Her face was rosy where he had slapped her. He felt a pang at his heart but before he could squish it from existence it reached out for that rosy patch of skin.
"I'm sorry." He whispered running the back of his fingers over the skin lightly. His touch was cool against the warmth of her face. Tohru closed her soft, pretty eyes and remained still as he ran his fingers across her cheek.
"Don't do that." Her voice startled him and he pulled his hand away. She opened her eyes and stared at him. Her tears being held back by blue barriers that refused to budge this time.
"Don't change like that. Please stay my friend." Akito's eyes grew as she spoke.
"I want to be your friend Akito-san. I had so much fun being with you." Her words brought happiness to him but another side of him stirred.
"Then why do you wish to leave so badly?" Akito asked with acid dripping in his voice. Tohru held strong.
"I don't want to leave Akito-san." Her eyes looked fierce then embarrassed as she dropped the eye contact.
"I enjoyed spending so much time with you, and I wished it didn't have to end. But I promised that I'd be back in a week to take care of the house for the others. They are my friends too and they are precious to me as well as you." Her cheeks flushed slightly as she finished and she held her eyes downward.
"Do you mean that Tohru?" She felt his hand slip under her chin and lift it up to look at him. He was close staring at her like he could enter her eyes and drown in the sea of bright blue. Her face heated again and she nodded as best she could in his hold. Her eyes grew wide, then fluttered close as she felt something press against her lips. Warm, his lips are…warm.
