I am so SORRY for not updating sooner everyone, but when the summer break ended I started my first year of high school and things became so much more complicated and I could never find the time to update. Finally though I had a little down time over the winter hoilday break and surprisingly I can continue this story.
Happy New Year to all!
I hope you enjoy the first update of 2008!
Lovers or Just Friends
Damn it! How much longer am I going to have to wait here?!
Kyo was standing outside the gym, wearing a nice white tuxedo that Ayame had customized for him. He would have preferred black but Ayame said that white was best for him and black for Yuki. . It was Wednesday night, the night of him and Tohru's prom. She had gone with Hana and Uo after school and was suppose to have returned by now.
If it weren't for the fact that Tohru asked me, I'd have already left this stupid thing. Everyone else is at least inside enjoying themselves. While I'm stuck out here.
Just then a car pulled up in front of the school. It was a stretch limousine.
"Hey orange top!" Uo called opening the door.
Kyo was dumfounded
"What the hell took you so long?"
"Calm down, we had a lot to do. First we picked up Tohru's dress, and then got our hair done, then facials and manicures."
"Okay I get it already. How could you even afford all that, plus a limousine?"
"It was all at my expense," said Hana coming out of the car next.
"You go girl! That's what I'm talking about, your living the life. Being fashionable late is awesome."
"You call having me standing out here waiting for almost thirty minutes fashionable late?!"
Kyo was fuming at Uo and was about to say something about her loud and impulsive remarks, when he was cut off.
"Good evening Kyo, sorry it took us awhile to get here." Tohru said, stepping out of the car lastly of the group.
Kyo turned to her. She was beautiful. Her hair was up in a high ponytail, with spiral curls on both sides of her face dangling in front of her ears. The dress she had on was lovely too, a light green shade that complimented her eyes perfectly. Seeing her there before him made the wait worth while.
As they all walked into the room people would stop and stare. Tohru and Kyo began to feel embarrassed with all the whispering they could her about one another. Uo lead them to a not so crowed bleacher and they all sat down.
"Hey, yo orange top! Go get us some drinks will yeah?" Uo ordered.
"What me? Why do I got to do it?" He complained, but realizing this was an argument that he would not win he calmly made his way to the punch bowl.
"So Tohru are you enjoying your first prom?" Hana asked.
"Oh yes, just being here makes me so happy."
"Damn Hana look! It's Nomi! That bastard owes me like thirty buck! Got to run Tohru, but have fun with Kyo." Uo said before running off.
"I apologize too Tohru, but we had a gambling match planned. I hope you understand." With that she bowed and Hana took off after her hotheaded friend in pursuit.
Tohru just sat there smiling and waving goodbye to them. Moments later Kyo came over struggling with four drinks in his hands. Balancing and trying not to let them spill.
"Okay here they are. What! Where the hell did they go?!"
"I'm sorry that you had to carry all of them here, but Uo and Hana left. I appreciate you bringing me my drink though Kyo. Thank you."
Kyo just smiled. He was not as mad as he was before knowing that he pleased her. They sat there for a while enjoying the music and the scenario. Kyo, however, was beginning to grow bored. He didn't even know what to say or how to begin a conversation right now. The only topic that came into his mind was to finally tell Tohru how he felt.
Now is the perfect time, right? I don't have anything else to say so it has to be now. If I don't say anything soon she might get too bored and leave. Do you want her to leave? No, so just tell her already.
"Um…Tohru." He started.
She turned to him.
"Well there is something I have always wanted to tell you."
"What is it Kyo."
"I wanted to say that I…I…"
Tohru was studying him now, trying to figure out his next word.
"I lo-…"
"Hey Tohru! Hi Kyo! It's so cool that you two are here."
"Oh hi Momiji, Hello Hatsuharu!" Tohru greeted.
Kyo was quite frustrated and somewhat red knowing that Momiji and Haru almost heard what he was about to say.
"Come on Tohru you look bored. Let's go dance! Pop songs are my favorite."
With that he dragged Tohru by the hand to the dance floor without even a comment from her. Kyo was watching her from the bleachers. Haru came and sat beside him.
