I hoped you liked chapter 1. I think it needs more detail, but no one has replied so I wouldn't know.

Shigure and Kyo were sitting in the dining room, talking. Yuki and Tohru were in the kitchen.

Shigure stared with confusion at Kyo. 'Did he really just say he needed to talk to me privately? Wow, this is weird.' "Ok. What do you need to speak to me about?" Shigure asked calmly not knowing how Kyo would respond.

Kyo was silent for a moment, wondering how he could say what he was going to say without Shigure making him sound like a pervert. Finally, he said "I'm worried about Tohru."

Shigure stared at him, still confused. "What's wrong with her?" he asked, beginning to worry.

Kyo said slowly, trying to get the words right "Do you think she'll be okay alone all summer with us in America?"

Shigure relaxed and smiled in relief "Of course she'll be okay. Besides, what can we do? We can't take her with us. Akito said this trip is for cursed members of the Zodiac. I told her she could go stay with her grandpa or with one of her friends but she said that staying here would be fine."

Kyo wasn't reassured "I'm just afraid that she'll leave the stove on or get lost or fall asleep in the bath. Something that could be harmful to her."

"She'll be fine, Kyo! We'll call her everyday and make sure she hasn't died! Stop worrying! And stop thinking about her sleeping in a bathtub." Kyo slapped Shigure for that last unnecessary comment and stomped away.

"Tohru, I was wondering if I could ask you for an enormous favor?" Yuki said while helping her prepare breakfast. "I was wondering while I'm in America, you take care of my base?"

Tohru smiled at him "Oh, of course Yuki. I was wondering that when your produce is ripe enough, I will be given permission to pick them."

Yuki smiled and pulled her away from the food. He grabbed her shoulders and looked into her eyes. "Tohru, will you be okay all alone this summer? Is there anything I can do? Maybe, some chores or some shopping? I could give you a picture so you won't forget us."

Tohru place her hands on Yuki's shoulders and stared back into his eyes. "No matter where you go. No matter what you do. Even if my memories are erased, I could never forget you, Yuki."

They were so close. Yuki was about to lean in for a kiss, when Tohru grabbed the plates and walked into the other room. 'Wow.' Yuki thought 'That was only the most embarrassing moment of my life.' Yuki followed her into the other room where he saw Kyo storm upstairs.

"Kyo, were are you going? I just made you your breakfast." Tohru called up after him.

Kyo turned around and looked at her from the top of the stairs. "I was just going to finish my packing, Tohru. I'm not all that hungry. Would you mind if you put it in the fridge? I'll eat it when I get hungry." Kyo said in a polite caring voice.

Tohru smiled at his kindness "Of course Kyo. Do you need help packing? I could wash something for you."

"That's not necessary." Kyo said not as kind as before and walked into his room.
