Lovers or Just Friends

She leaned in closer to me, as our eyes slowly began to close. My heart was pounding. Our lips, seconds apart from one another. I loved her, and I was about to know how she felt about me.

"Tohru!"

Kyo stirred awakening from his dream, and raising slightly off the floor.

"Tohru!" Shigure called again.

Kyo turned to Tohru who was sound asleep. They had gone to bed late last night and she had been worrying herself too much. It was best to let her rest. Kyo realized this and quietly exited his room. "Toh-" Shigure attempted to call for her again but Kyo came down the stairs to silence him.

"Shigure, you'll wake her."

"I Know but I'm hungry."

"Well your gonna have to wait because she's sleeping."

Shigure looked at him slyly.

"How do you know?"

Kyo began to slightly blush as an image of Tohru asleep in his bed came into his mind.

"I-I don't"

Shigure wasn't buying that so easily.

"Oh, well then we should check on her now shouldn't we."

Shigure began to make his way up the stairs to Tohru's room.

"No we shouldn't." said Kyo trying to stop him.

Shigure turned to him.

"Why not? What in case there's something wrong?"

Kyo didn't know what else to do. If Shigure knew Tohru stayed the night in his room, he'd tell Yuki and Yuki would kill him.

"Stop Shigure."

But it was too late. Shigure had already opened Tohru's door. No surprise, she wasn't there. Shigure eyed Kyo's room next.

"I wonder where she is?" Shigure said sarcastically

"I don't know."

Kyo knew the place he'd look next.

"Kyo tell me, what did you do last night?"

Shigure started to walk to Kyo's door.

"What did I do? Uh…nothing, I read some of a novel, but other than that I slept."

Shigure reached out for the doorknob.

Kyo was so nervous. He could almost hear Shigure's reaction. Suddenly, the bathroom door opened and there stood Tohru with her nightclothes on.

"Good morning Kyo, good morning Shigure. I'm sorry I overslept a little but I will get right on it with your breakfast."

With that she went into her room to change. Shigure turned to Kyo wondering now, if his suspicion was wrong.

"I told you that I just read and went to bed last night." Kyo said so relieved.

Shigure headed back down stairs to await breakfast. Kyo waited outside Tohru's door for her. When she finally came she greeted him with a smile.

"Thank you for letting me sleep in your bed last night Kyo."

"Do you feel better about everything now Tohru?"

She nodded cheerfully.

"Well we can't leave Shigure waiting."

As they both walked down the stairs to the kitchen, she turned to him.

"Kyo. Do you mind if I ask, what was your dream about last night?"
