Chapter 5 - Telling The Truth

Tohru's Diary

5:00pm April 13 1912

I'm off off the the dining hall with Yuki and Kyo to hear the band play tonight. Their music is amazing and I can't wait until I can hear them play again. We have just finished dinner and we are simply going to watch them preform. I can't wait! Oh, there's a knock on the door, it must be my roomates...one second.

Tohru threw her notebook in her suitcase and ran to the door. But when she opened the door, she didn't see Sally and her kids, she saw Yuki and Kyo!

"Tohru?" Kyo said confused.

"Ms. Honda, what are you doing down here?" Yuki asked. Tohru stood with a startled face. Busted. No use in hiding it now, they already see her. Tohru sighed.

"This is my stateroom!" she squeeked. Kyo and Yuki blankly stared at her. She heaved and began to tell them the story.

"Well, remember the first day we were here? Well...I bought these tickets from a man, but I could only afford third class, so...I took the offer." she told them fading off.

"Why didn't you tell us sooner?" Kyo yelled. Tohru looked down at her shoes.

"I knew if I told you I was staying down here you would want me to take a higher class room and I didn't want to be a bother, that's all." she said. Yuki and Kyo could see her face going red.

"Ms. Honda, you didn't have to hide it from us." Yuki said. It was silent for a while until Kyo grabbed Tohru's hand and began to walk.

"Well, let's get going we don't want to be late!" Kyo said. Tohru was thankful he changed the topic and dragged her away, she just wanted to get out of there! Once they entered the band just began to play. Tohru sat inbetween Kyo and Yuki. She felt bad for not wanting to tell them about her stateroom, but she knew they would worry or even worse; want to give her one of their rooms. She would feel sooo bad! She tried to forget about her guilt while she watched the preformance. She hoped they weren't too mad. Mabey tonight when she was watching the stars with Kyo, she could apologize.

"Kyo I'm..." Tohru was fighting back tears. It was 2:00 in the morning and again she was out on the front deck with Kyo again. Kyo gave her a confused look, he liked it when they were on the deck, but hated to see Tohru that upset. "I'm really sorry...about everything..."she said taking pauses. Kyo looked at her sad face. He jumped backwards, he hated crying.

"It's ok..." he said. Tohru looked at him with sad eyes. "We were just shocked that's all. We hated the fact that a nice girl like you, was getting put in a such a horrible living condition." Tohru eyes were wide open.

"Really?" Tohru asked shocked. Kyo looked into her beautiful, big, blue eyes. Kyo felt himself blushing but didn't look away, he knew what he needed to do.

"Your a special person, you deserve special treatment..." he said fading off. Tohru's eyes got wider. She couldn't believe how bold Kyo was being, he hated talking about these types of things! "We care about you Tohru...I care about you..." Kyo said that last part quietly. Tohru was now turning bright red, was Kyo telling her how he felt? Kyo leaned in. "And I want to be able to give it to you." Tohru face was changing a million shades of red. Kyo leaned in more until his lips touched hers. She stood in shock and Kyo kissed her, she was embarrassed and happy at the same time. It was the best part of her whole trip! Kyo was kissing her! When Kyo backed away and looked into Tohru's eyes he felt calmer. Tohru reached out and hugged him.

"Thank you..." she said trailing off. Once she let go they held hands as they pointed out their favorite stars in the sky. After a while they saw a shooting star. "Wow, that's beautiful!" she said. "What did you wish for?" she asked Kyo. Kyo looked into her eyes.

"I already got it." Tohru turned pink and covered her face in her hands. Kyo smirked, she was always so shy. Both of them could tell that nothing would be the same between them again, they could both feel it.

"See you tomorrow Kyo!" Tohru said. Kyo was outside of Tohru's stateroom door and they were saying goodnight. Tohru gave him a kiss on the cheek and shut the door. Kyo was red, but brushed the feeling away, not wanting Yuki to see him like that. As Kyo reached Yuki's room he saw Yuki say goodbye to a girl with brown hair, who then ran off down the hall. Kyo approached Yuki.

"Who was that?" he asked.

"I met her at that party the other day. I decided if you love Ms. Honda, I should move on." Kyo jumped back. Yuki gave him a blank stare. "Yes I saw, you guys were gone every night so I went to go find you and there you were. I left to go find Ms. Kuragi so I didn't bother you two." he said and closed the door in Kyo's face. At first Kyo felt bad, but realized that both of them were in love, there was nothing wrong with that! Yuki and Kyo both changed and quickly went to sleep. However Tohru didn't do that. Sally, Margret and Steven were sleeping so she quickly changed, then grabbed her notebook and sat on her bed and wrote:

Tohru's Diary

2:45am April 14 1912

Today, Kyo kissed me! It was crazy but...I liked it, after all we have gotten to know each other really well! I hope Kyo knows how much I love him and want to be with him...I think we'll take our time though. About what I was writing before...Kyo and Yuki caught me. They found out that I am currently living in third class quaters. I felt like I let them down...but when we were watching the stars, Kyo told me that they just want the best for me and then...he kissed me. I can't stop thinking about it! My first kiss...I hope I'll remember it forever! It was the best part of this whole trip...so far!

Tohru heard a little moan from the other bunk and threw her notebook in her bag and hopped into her bed. It was Margret.

"Mommy...Mommy?" she asked. Her voice was cracking. Tohru looked down; she was crying.

"Are you alright?" she whispered. The little girl looked up at her and shook her head. Tohru hopped down and kneeled down in front of the little girl. "What happened?" she asked. She felt bad for the little girl, she looked so scared.

"I had a scary dream...that Mommy was gone..." she whispered starting to cry. Tohru's eyes grew wider. She knew how scary it was to loose a parent, but for a child her age it must be terrifying. She took a closer look at the girl and realized; she was just like her, scared and needing comfort. Tohru thought for a moment and knew just the thing to say to her.

"You know, your Mom..my," Tohru corrected herself. "is perfectly fine." she said. She held the little girls hands. "I can tell because listen, you can hear her snoring." Tohru held a finger up to her lip. Suddenly a loud grumble came from the mother and Tohru and Margret let out a little giggle. Tohru could tell Margret was still scared. Tohru smiled and the little girl. "What's your favorite toy?" she asked. If she could find it, mabey that could cheer her up.

"My dolly." she said. Tohru ran to the end of the room and picked up what looked like a barbie doll, and handed it to her. She kneeled down.

"Do you want to stay with me tonight?" she asked holding her hand and giving a warm smile. Margret waiting for a second then shyly nodded. Tohru let her get up first then she hopped up. Margret wrapped her hands around Tohru's waist. Tohru hugged her back and began to pet her head. They both slowly fell into a sleep, with Margret feeling safer then she ever had. Tohru really wanted to help the little girl because she was in the same position that was placed in a year ago. Everyone on the Titanic fell asleep not knowing that for more than 1,000 of them, tomorrow would be the last time they ever saw daylight.
