Kyo and Tohru broke apart as the door opened.

"Couldn't wait five more minutes." Kyo muttered under his breath as he walked out of the room.

Tohru looked after him and then turned to Yuki and Shigure.

"So, how was your trip?" Tohru asked, wondering, in the back of her mind, about what Kyo wanted to tell her.

"Same as always." Shigure said as he took off his jacket and he and Yuki sat down.

"Would you like some tea?" Tohru asked, getting up. Shigure nodded.

"Yes. Please and thank you." Yuki said.

Tohru went to the kitchen and put on the water for the tea. Her thoughts began to drift.

'What was he going to say? And what was that look in his eyes? Kyo...' She sighed and got down two cups.

On the roof, Kyo was also thinking.

'Why can't I just say it? Everytime I get close, someone else comes in and I freeze up. Why am I such a coward?!'

He covered his face with his hands, frustrated. In the kitchen, the tea was done so Tohru poured two cups and went bak to Shigure and Yuki, handing each of them a cup.

"If it's ok, could I go to my room?" Tohru asked Shigure.

"Sure. You don't have to ask me that." Shigure smiled.

She thanked him and went upstairs. She went straight past her room and to the stairs that led to the roof. When she got up there she saw Kyo, right where she thought he would be, looking up at the sky. Kyo, with his cat-like senses, noticed Tohru the second her head popped up.

"Hey you."He said as he watched her sit down beside him.

"Hey." She looked at the sky.

"What's up?" He asked, looking back at the sky too.

"Huh? Oh nothing."

She seemed very nervous for some reason. He looked at her. She looked at him. They both looked away.

"I was wondering..." Tohru started after a few minutes.

"Hmm?" Kyo glanced back at her.

"About earlier. What were you going to-going to say?" She looked at him now.

He stared at her for a minute before he said anything.

"What?"

"Earlier. Before Shigure and Yuki came in. You were going to say something... W-weren't you?"

Tohru was still looking in his eyes. "I was?"

Tohru felt embarrassed now.

'Maybe he wasn't going to say anything. Maybe it was just wishful thinking'

"I thought...nevermind. I'm sorry if I bothered you." She quickly got up and climbed back down the stairs to her room, shutting the door.

"Stupid!" She yelled at herself as she flopped down on her bed.

Kyo hit himself on the head and got up. He was about to knock on Tohru's door when he heard soft crying. Kyo instantly felt horrible, he couldn't stand to look at her, not after he had made her cry. He went downstairs and sat down away from Yuki and Shigure, looking down and covering his face with his hands, mentally punishing himself. The other two looked at him, shrugged, and then continued talking. Tohru sat up and looked at the clock. Almost dinner. She went to the bathroom and washed her face. After she managed to look like she hadn't cried at all she went downstairs to the kitchen. She cooked dinner and then brought the food out, sitting across from Kyo rather than beside him. She couldn't even bring herself to look at him. Shigure, feeling the tension, spoke up.

"So Tohru, how was your day with Kyo?" He asked.

She looked at him. "It was fine."

She turned back to her food, taking a bite. No one else said anything the rest of the time they were eating. Tohru collected the dishes and washed them. Then she announced that she was tired and went upstairs to her room. It was only seven. She wasn't the least bit tired. She opened her window and hung her legs over the ledge, looking at the sky.

"I'm an idiot for even thinking he would ever say anything like that. Especially to me." She told herself.

All she could do was think of Kyo and she hated it. It just upset her more. Knowing that he would never feel the same. That's what hurt the most. A tear slid down her cheek. She wiped it away and sighed, looking into space again. Kyo was on the roof again. He too was staring at the stares.

"She probably thinks I hate her now. She probably hates me even more. And why shouldn't she? I do." He said to himself as he sat up and slumped while staring into nothing.

Tohru put on her headphones and turned on the song that she knew would hopefully let it out. She needed to vent somehow and she knew this would work. Singing always helped take away the pain. But maybe this time the pain was just too much. Maybe she was finally broken... Tohru closed her eyes and started singing.

'ohh yea yea there's something bout the way you looked at me made me think for a moment that maybe we were meant to be livin our lives seperately and it's strange that things change but not me wanting you so desperately'

Kyo heard soft singing and knew it had to be Tohru. He scooted to the edge of the roof to get a better listen.

'ohh why can't i ignore it i keep giving in but i should know better cuz there was something bout the way you looked at me and it's strange that things change but not me wanting you so desperately'

Tohru opened her eyes and looked up at the sky and smiled a little.

'you looked my way and said you frustrate me like you're thinking of lines and times when you and i were you and me we took our chance out on the street but i missed my chance and chances are that it won't be coming back to me.'

Kyo got up after hearing that and went down the stairs, walking to Tohru's room.

'ohh why can't i ignore it i keep giving in but i should know better cuz there was something bout the way you looked at me and it's strange that things change but not me wanting you so desperately so desperately ohh ohh why can't i ignore it i keep giving in but i should know better cuz there was something bout the way you looked at me and it's strange that things change but not me wanting you so desperately i want you so desperately ohh i keep giving in but i should know better i keep giving in but i should know better so desperately i want you so desperately...'
