Chapter 7

Mmmk the last 2 long chapters were practically dedicated to Tohru and Tristin, let's switch it up now :3
PS: See where the Jealousy is coming in?

"Good Morning Kyo-senpai" said Taylor

"Shut up your moron! Your so loud, even in the morning" replied Kyo who had a headache

"Oh, I'm sorry Kyo-senpai, I didn't mean to disturb your rest." apologized Taylor

"Its okay, don't go Tohru on me now"

"Yes, Kyo-senpai"

It was morning of the next day when Taylor went downstairs to make breakfast. She was watching Kyo sleep all night. When she was on her way to the kitchen she looked to her right and saw the living room table full with plates of food and a note.

"Taylor-chan, take a break this week, I'll take care of everything.

-Love Tristin"

Taylor took the note in relief, Tristin
hadn't yet noticed Kyo and Taylor were sleeping together for the past 2 days, or
he was pretending not to. It was probably that, unfortunately. When Taylor went outside she looked to the small hill to the left
where the clothesline was, the clothes were already token out and hung to dry. She looked to her right where a small flower garden was not too far from the living room door was. The flower bed was tended to better then she thought, she never knew Tristin knew how to garden.

"Ack!" shouted Taylor

She was suddenly picked up by Tristin who was behind her, Taylor snuggled closer to Tristin's chest.

"Good Morning, my loving, delicate flower." said Tristin while rubbing his nose against hers. Taylor knew she was very lucky to have such a nice boyfriend.

"Hey lovebirds! When's lunch?" asked Kyo

"Noon like usual" said Tristin

"Whats in"

Taylor had no idea what Kyo just said, Kyo can be confusing sometimes, but that's why I love him thought Taylor

"Im cooking miso soup and sashimi for you, Tohru asked for herring, I'm not eating lunch, and Taylor can have shrimp."

Tristin always knows what I like thought Taylor, that's partially why I love him thought Taylor

"Come here loud mouth." requested Kyo while walking inside

Taylor jumped out of Tristin's arms and pecked him on the cheek, then went inside to Kyo.

"No getting too mushy now, all right?" said Kyo

"Okay" replied Taylor

Tristin just walked in with Tohru close behind, she was smiling.

"Me and Tohru are going to make lunch, if you need either of us, we'll be in the kitchen." said Tristin while walking to the kitchen.

"Okay thank you for doing everything for me this week Tristin-chan" said Taylor, she completely forgot to thank him.

"Please, don't mention it, I'd do this anyday for you" said Tristin lovingly

If Tristin was so good, why was she cheating on him? He didn't deserve this. But something about Kyo made Taylor crazy.

While Tohru and Tristin were in the kitchen Kyo and Taylor were playing card games. Kyo was flirting with Taylor, she loved it, Tristin did this too, Tristin knew she liked to be teased. Tristin knew everything about just about anyone, but how? That was some Taylor didn't know about Tristin, usually when Taylor asked a question to him about himself he answered the question with great satisfaction, but when she asked him about how he knew everything about everyone he just said to not worry about those things, or he'd change the subject.

"Eh, space cadet, Kyo calling cute girl Taylor-chan to wake up!" teased Kyo

Taylor snapped out of it then giggled. "Im sorry Kyo-chan"

Taylor looked to her right, she noticed Tristin found out about Taylor calling Kyo, Kyo-chan behind his and Tohru's backs. Was she in trouble? No, Tristin never did anything remotely close to punish her when she did something bad.

"I win!" Kyo announced

Taylor turned around to see her lack of focus lost her the game. She didn't care. Kyo touched her chin and stroked it leaning in for a kiss, she kissed him, it was a very long and engaging kiss, which was only broken by Tristin coming in with the plates, he must have seen them perfectly, he cared and rushed back to hesitate Tohru from coming into the room to see her lover being kissed by someone else. When Taylor and Kyo broke the kiss Tristim and Tohru came in happily. Taylor feared she really would get punished this time, Tristin saw that she engaged the kiss in the first place.

The lunch was delicious, but Tristin didn't talk the whole time except for when Kyo asked for the salt he said "K" very quietly. Taylor decided to take one of the largest risks in her life, it was hit or miss, but she took it. She leaned over to Tristin's ear and whispered "You don't own me, I can kiss whoever I want" after Taylor retreated back to her seat Tristin announced "I'm going outside" he took his sword with him... Why would he need that? Tristin walked outside and quietly closed the door behind him and murmmured "Thank you Tohru-chan, I love you Taylor-chan, good luck with Kyo-san"

No one else heard it except her and possibly Tohru when he raised his voice slightly to say thank you to Tohru. The rest of the lunch was pretty quiet for all of about 2 minutes when

"Gwahhhhhh!" shouted Tristin

Taylor rushed outside, stumbled and fell at the sight, Tristin had plunged the sword into his heart. Tohru came out and did nearly the same but grabbed onto a support beam on the porch for support, Kyo didn't come.

When Taylor thought it was a hit or miss she never knew she could lose this much! She ran over to Tristin who was coughing up blood. Maybe it wasn't him who did this?!?

"Who did this to you?!" asked Taylor frantically

"You" said Tristin, then collapsed over... dead.

Tohru rushed over and checked all his pulses, nothing, except a bracelet he had was beating, it was a bracelet with beads and a heart shape labelled "~Love. I'll always love you no matter what, -Taylor" Tohru was pressing her fingers on the hard when she heard a groan. "Toh...Ru...-senpai" groaned Tristin. Taylor pressed on the heart shape and felt the beat. "Taylor-chan... I'm sorry I wasn't good enough" the beat of the heart shape was slowing, coming to a very near stop. Tohru realized it was also a locket, she flicked it open with her thumb to see a picture of Tristin and Taylor kissing in a sunset at dark. Tristin was still alive, he wouldn't allow his existence, it meant nothing without Taylor he said. Tristin was struggling, but slowly was sliding of the bracelet that contained the heartbeat, his only life line. Taylor knew how to save him, but would she do it? Taylor had taken Tristin for granted while loved, and spoiled her, took the punishments
for her mistakes, and stayed loyal. Did Taylor really deserve someone like him? No, she decided to let him die. Something made him stop, Taylor looked at Tristin and saw, Tohru kissing Tristin, she broke the kiss and said "Please Tristin, don't do it, we-...I-I love you" Tristin's eyes went wide, Tohru's concern did matter, but he still continued to slowly take off his bracelet while looking lovingly at Taylor. It was her that made the final decision. Taylor knew she didn't deserve him, but if she didn't, Tohru did, Taylor but her hand on his and smiled, Tristin smiled too and hugged her. Tohru got up looking very happy, Taylor helped Tristin up off the ground, he still didn't look too good, his pulse was still quite slow, but she knew he was going to make it. They walked inside together holding hands.

"What! The! Hell! Happenned to you?!?!?" shouted Kyo

Tristin smiled "Shut up, eat your lunch." Tristin chuckled.

"I'm going to make dinner, this one takes longer to make" said Tristin

"No! You need rest!" protested Taylor and Tohru in unison.

"Don't worry, I'm not breaking any promise because of my condition" said Tristin winking at Taylor, Tohru looked confused, she didn't know of the promise.

"No blood in the food sword-in-man" added Kyo

Kyo was so mean sometimes, this was one of those times. Tristin removed the sword, not a single drop of blood on it! Or his clothes! The wound wasn't there either?! Tohru and Taylor both were shocked!

"Kitchen~" said Tristin playfully

Tristin walked into the kitchen and started cooking dinner, Taylor walked in and looked at Tristin with worried eyes.

"Let me help you." asked Taylor

"I'm fine" teased Tristin

Taylor loved to be teased, but she really did care for Tristin's health.

"I'll take a nap after dinner if that makes you happy" offered Tristin

"Okay" said Taylor, Taylor knew this wasn't enough but she also knew that Tristin was definetely not going to budge, he kept all his promises, he was not going to break a promise he made to his love for anything, even the world!

Taylor walked out of the kitchen to see Tohru talking to Kyo about Tristin's condition, you could see he purely didn't care.

"Tristin-senpai this, Tristin-senpai that~ Oh, shut up!" said Kyo, then Kyo sneak-attack kissed Tohru. She yielded, and calmed down.

Taylor,Kyo and Tohru watched television while waiting for Tristin to come in with dinner. It wasn't long till Tristin came around with dinner, the quality of dinner was amazing for how long it took to make, which was less than 15 minutes! For a whole chicken and full round of soup! What could have got into Tristin to be so happy? The small group sat down to dinner which was absolutely heavenly! Kyo really did drool just at the smell of it! During dinner Tohru leaned over to Tristin and whispered something, Tristin nodded and said "Hai" to whatever she said. Taylor caught the gyst of what she said by accident. It was "Can I sleep with you tonight?" Taylor was concerned at this but payed little attention to it, since she was doing no worse with Kyo. Dinner took a surprisingly long time to finish, it was already time to sleep. Kyo and Taylor went upstairs to Tohru's and Kyo's room, Tohru and Tristin went outside after Tohru had a brief moment to get dressed
in the nightgown Ayame made for her, it worked on Tristin.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

It was midnight as the clock ticked, Kyo got up.

"It's time" Kyo said

Kyo was teasing Taylor, they started kissing, it lasted a long time when Taylor noticed the window in the room had a perfect view of the tree Tohru and Tristin were in, she looked at wear Tristin's hands were, one was on his own leg and the other was stroking Tohru's head, Tristin did that to Taylor, she loved it very much, Tohru was asleep! Tristin wasn't ever thinking of doing anything intimate with Tohru, and here she was, messing around and kissing Kyo! She really WAS doing worse with Kyo then Tohru and Tristin was, she feared what she was going to do next, she slowly went to look at Tristin's eyes, they were pure dark purple, and staring directly into Taylor's, she realized what was happening and broke the kiss with Kyo mouthing out "No! Don't look! No! Please! Don't watch! No! Please..." Tristin got the message almost like an order and shifted his focus to Tohru, his eyes went green again, his natural colour.
Kyo just continued kissing Taylor hardly realizing what was happening. She felt horrible, in so many emotions, Jealousy. She'd give anything to switch positions with Tohru. Fear. What would Kyo do if she stopped with him midway? Confusion. Why did Tristin listen to Taylor's order? She thought maybe her hit or miss attempt had finally worked, but she wasn't happy about it this time. Melancholy. She realized Kyo stopped doing anything Taylor liked, she was being used, she was so gloomy.
