I ran into Kyo's room, knowing that if I went to Cindy's we'd both be in trouble. Kyo heard my panting and the door shut to his room and sat up. I looked at him terrified and ran to him. This is something new he saw, I was in hesterics and crying. "What's wrong?" he asked frantic. I shushed him. He went quiet and listened to my door shut and heavy footsteps coming to the door.
I whispered one word "Johnothan." Right then Kyo knew something was really wrong and told me to stay hidden. I did what I was told and hid in the closet.
Jon came in the room and came face to face with Kyo. "What are you doing here?" he asked. Kyo glared at him "I should ask the same. Get out of our house!" he yelled. Cindy came in and hit Jon "Get out. You're not welcome." She said. Kyo yelled at Cindy to get me out of here.
Cindy pulled me out of the room and down stairs. Kyo had Jon knocked out real quick and called the police. By then it was 2 in the morning, the police talked to all of us and said we didn't have to go to court but if I wanted I could get a restraining order on him and I did.
Cindy went back to bed and I went to my room, hugging myself. Kyo knocked and came in. I told him to shut it. "Was your window locked?" he asked. I nodded "I feel so exposed." I cried. He came up to me and hugged me. I gripped his shirt and cried. "Shh it's okay now Cass he's not coming back. What did he do to you to make you this upset?"
"He tried to force himself on me and succeeded in parts of the attempt. H-he touched me and kissed me. That's why I bit his tongue." I laughed. "Why would he do that? And how hard did you bite him?" "It bled." I said. He ran his hands up and down my sides soothingly. "Are you okay to sleep?" he asked. I didn't answer.
He picked me up and laid me back in my bed and pulled the covers over me then shut the window and locked it. I thought he would leave me but he climbed in next to me and pulled me close. "Thank God tomorrows Friday." I heard him murmer.
In the morning Cindy refused to let me drive to school so instead she drove us. When we got there neither of them left my side at all. The school was informed and let Kyo and Cindy have all their classes with me and in every class they sat near me. I didn't let anyone know I had a rough night and so I was my normal self.
Uo came over with Hana "Are you okay?" Uo asked. "Yes, you seem to have troubled waves Cassidy." Said Hana. I stayed quiet and Cindy asked me if they could know. I told her I didn't care and Kyo still had a hold of my waist. "I want space. I don't want this to become worldly news so will you two please keep your mouths shut? I don't want this to be a big deal like their taking it to be." I said.
Kyo looked at me "I want you to be safe okay? Understand that." "Yeah I understand that but still the clinginess is getting to me. I'm fine and I don't want people to be suspicious to why you two are now having all your classes with me and following me everywhere I go." Cindy sighed because she knew this was coming. "Cass this is all my fault to begin with. I'm the one who made you go on that date Kyo ruined."
"Cindy it's not your fault he's had his eye on me anyway." I said. At the end of the conversation I ended up having more body guards than I wanted. At the end of the day Momiji came up behind me and tapped my shoulder, the result was not a good one. I screamed. "Cass what's wrong?" he said putting his hand on my shoulder, I flinched down to the floor hugging my knees.
Soon Arisa had Momiji against the opposite wall and Kyo was next to me, trying to comfort me. "What the hell did you do to her?" Uo yelled. Momiji just stared at me on the floor "I didn't do anything except touch her arm." He said. Another set of running footprints were heard running down the hall. Chris and Haru showed up.
"What's going on?" they asked. Right now I wanted to run, to get away from everyone and to be alone… so I ran. I ran out of the school, past my car and past the school gates. I heard people yelling for me to come back but I refused to and kept going.
I got to where ever I was going around dusk. I found myself at Kazuma's dojo. I got the door cracked and then I fainted on the entryway. Kazuma hovered over me and I whispered "Please tell no one where I am." Then everything went completely black.
When I woke up, I heard people talking. I turned my head to see Kazuma sitting in a chair next to me then I saw Kyo and Kazuma's assistant. I lay there watching them until Kyo saw that I was awake. He hurried to the place where I was lying and hugged me when I sat up. Hatori came in at that moment.
"Good, you're awake." He said walking over. I flinched away from him and towards Kyo. "It's alright Cass. He's here to help." Kyo said. Hatori was getting ready to exam me when I said "I swear to God, I'm fine now. I'll be okay by tomorrow. I've been harassed before so don't worry. The way my emotions are built it will breeze through my body."
They looked at me and Hatori put everything back in his case. "okay then we'll do this your way. But if it doesn't work we'll try it differently." He said. I nodded and hugged him. He stiffened then hugged me back after a minute. He nodded then left everyone. Kazuma looked at me. "Why did you want no one to know you where here?" he asked.
I looked at Kyo then back at Kazuma. "Everyone wouldn't just leave me alone. I was crowded every minute. Then more people where wondering what happened to me." I said as I got up. "You could have just said something Cass." said Kyo. I shrugged "I couldn't. Anyway, can we go home?" I said. Kyo nodded and we said thanks and goodbye to Kazuma. I would have walked but Kyo made me get on his back.
A couple days later I was normal again, with the occasional nightmare. People were still wondering what happened to me but everyone that knew kept their mouths shut. Kyo still kept our classes the same so we enjoyed each others company 24/7. Yuki asked me for decoration advice with prom and made me part of the committee.
Prom was only a couple days away and Ayame planed to make my dress by himself this time. Kyo and I decided that we didn't care who saw us together anymore and now the entire school knows we're dating. We got home after school and I was so exhausted from helping with prom I just collapsed on the floor in my room. I was still awake but my legs deflated under me. Cindy was invited to stay the night at one of her friends houses for the night to work on a project that was due tomorrow.
I was lying on my stomach and didn't hear Kyo walk in my room nor did I know he had a nice view of the underwear I was wearing. I heard him shut my door and sit down on the floor next to me. "What's up?" he asked. "Nothing really, just lying here." I said. He ran his hand down my back and the lower until I finally felt a draft and where his hand was.
I gasp, shot up and glared at him. "I forgot to tell you just now…you have really nice undergarments. I stood up and sat at my desk then flipped on my computer. 3 messages popped up, from Yuki, Uo and then from someone unknown. I read Yuki's first, figuring it was about prom and it was. Then I read Uo's, she wanted to know if we could go get our hair down and all for prom along with Tohru and Hana. I replied then opened the last.
"Hello again my dear Cassidy. I have missed you. Please show up to prom. I will wait for you forever my love, Jon."
I could have fainted. Kyo saw my face and got up to read the message. "I can't believe that num-skull is still doing this." He said. I ignored the message and bounced it back to sender, maybe he would think the email was bad. When I was about to sign off another popped up.
I didn't know this person either.
"Ms. Cassidy you have issues why in the world would Kyo Sohma go for you or even go to the prom with you. You're no good for him so just leave him to one of us. He'll be much happier."
This was just rediculus. Kyo moved me aside and wrote back. "Look I'm in love with Cass so deal with it. Oh btw I have a surprise for you and her on prom night." I looked at him and shook my head. When he was done he shut down the internet. "Okay we can skip prom and go somewhere else." He said.
"We're not going to miss prom. I can't avoid the problem forever." I said. He brewded for a moment then took my ring and put it on my left hand. "That might solve the issue between both Jon and the fan club." He said. I nodded and went to my dresser. I took out my new favorite pair of short shorts and a pale pink tank. I stepped in my closet and changed. Then I took out my journal and laid on my back on the bed.
He lyed down next to me and watched me write for a while. "Are you okay with people touching you now?" he asked. "Yeah I think, I haven't had a problem with people touching me, but I don't know about touching me in the other way like he did because, well you know why." I said still writing.
Kyo hesitated a moment then put a hand on her back then went down to the rim of her shirt. She didn't move so he lifted her shirt and slid his hand under it. That's when she went rigid. He stopped and stayed where he was at. "Don't worry Cass it's just me." He whispered. She un-tensed a little and closed her book and placed her head on the bed.
He rubbed her back and she slowly relaxed her body. Kyo heard a moan and stopped. I turned over onto my back and looked at Kyo. He was trying things out to see if he could ever touch me again, not that he really has, but to see if he could ever touch me. I yawned and we laughed. "Looks like I'm touchable after all." I laughed. I saw something in the corner of my eye and picked it up.
It was a note from Cindy telling me to teach Kyo how to play Nerves of Steal. I blushed and threw it in the trash. I knew I would hear about it tomorrow but I didn't care. I climbed in bed and Kyo laid down next to me. A second later he jumped up and turned my light off then resumed his place on the bed.
We stayed there unmoving for a moment until my cell phone rang. I pulled it out of my bedside table and answered it on speaker. It was Cindy. "Hey Bubbles," She piped in the phone, "Have you played NOS with Kyo yet?" she asked. I yelled "No." and hung up on her.
Not even a full second went by when the phone rang again, but I refused to answer it. "What's NOS?" Kyo asked taking the phone and answering it. "Tell you later." I said as Cindy yelled in the phone. "I'm sorry Bubbles don't be mad please I just called to tell you Yuki needs you at his house tomorrow then Tohru and them are leaving for the salon." She said.
I sighed and said "Fine but I'll think about the whole salon thing okay. Now good night." I hung the phone up when she said bye. Thank you. I fell back on my pillow and sighed. Kyo chuckled and put his head on my stomach. He turned his head to face me "So are you going to tell me now what NOS is?" he asked.
I groaned "The game is called nerves of steal. You put your hand on the persons thigh and move up till they say that there're nervous and you win. If you make it to a certain point then you lose." I explained. He sat up "Can we play?" he asked. I shrugged, maybe I will be okay. He put his hand on my thigh and moved it up. I whimpered when he got just below my bra.
