Kyo's P.O.V.
I fought the urge to follow Tohru upstairs, half because she needed space and half because that damn rat would block my way and I didn't want to upset Tohru any more than I already had by fighting him. He stood up, and fixed his gaze on me, a mixture of disappointment and anger evident in his eyes, it unnerved me. When he spoke, his words cut through me like a knife.
"What did you think you were doing? Leaving Tohru here with no idea where you'd gone, you know how she overthinks, didn't you even consider how this would make her feel at all?", his voice was steady and calm, aiding my unease.
"Of course I did! I know she loves me, I knew that she'd wait, I knew she'd understand, she always-.".
"It's been an entire year Kyo, are you sure she even wants to be with you anymore? Do you think she can trust you?", his calm voice held an undertone of confidence, or cockiness, that pissed me off.
"Why does that even matter to you? Don't you have that Mochi- or whatever her name is waiting for you at home, Tohru is just your friend, why are you so concerned with her matters?!" He smirked, that bastard smirked his lips curled into a menacing grin on his face that absolutely disgusted me. "I've already cut things off with Machi, you know Kyo, a year is a long time, and so much can happen...are you sure Tohru is just my friend?" My stomach dropped, I couldn't think properly, in the short time I'd been gone...had Tohru moved on without me? Then it dawned on me-"You bastard! How could you take advantage of a broken-hearted girl, how could you take advantage of her kind nature!", and I punched him, straight across his smug face.
Yuki's P.O.V.
Kyo's fist slammed straight into my cheek, and the weight of my words fell on me, I hadn't meant to lie to him, I really hadn't, but he didn't seem to notice how much more tired Tohru seemed compared to before, he didn't seem like he understood the weight of his decisions...he didn't seem to care. He'd had Tohru in the palm of his hands and now that she's finally fell into my own, he's come to take her back. I couldn't bare the thought of it anymore, after having her part of my everyday life again, I couldn't just let her go...not to him not to anyone.
"Don't get angry with me because I was there when you weren't." His fist raised in an attempt to strike me again, and I caught it my hand. I stare him straight in the eyes. " Don't be mad that she wants me more than she wants you." , he sneered, and spat in my face.
"You're an idiot if you really think you can truly ever have Tohru, a part of her will always belong to me."
" You're an idiot if you think she belongs to anyone."
Tohru's P.O.V.
I could faintly hear Yuki and Kyo's conversation floating in from downstairs, it embarrassed me that Yuki was insinuating that something was going on between us, but I was happy to hear him jumping to my defense, I could tell he really cared about me. For the last few months I've felt lost and purposeless, getting by on only Shigure's kindness and my students smiling faces, but then Yuki came along. He gave me a purpose, I had someone to cook for, I had someone to garden with, I had somebody with me at all times, despite his busy schedule and that made me feel needed, something I hadn't felt in a long time. I couldn't thank him more for that, and Kyo, he always kept his faith in me, he believed I would be here waiting, he trusted me...and that just confused me further.
I was alone for a long time, I sacrificed a lot after losing Kyo, I spent days in bed crying, and I spent days staring at the ceiling. Did he leave me? Is he okay? Does he even love me anymore? I spent months with questions flooding my mind, and now I finally had answers, but are they enough for me? Am I angry? Am I sad? Are we together now? Are we not? Do I want to be with Kyo? My questions that had been answered led to more unanswered questions, and I felt helpless all over again.
Yuki's P.O.V.
"Get out.", my voice was stone cold and shaking with anger, "Get out before I do something I'll regret." I couldn't believe his audacity, he spat on me, I thought he was a cat, why is he getting off acting like a llama.
"No you bastard, I'm staying here. I'm moving in and when Tohru wants to leave we'll move out together again, and start our life anew, you got a problem with that? You get out."
"Why are you always moving in? Can't you stand on your own two feet? You're not going to bust through the roof again right?"
"You cheeky bastard, I thought you were a rat, not a chipmunk, grow up and accept it, I'm staying here."
I really can't stand this idiot, but I don't want to create problems for Tohru. If she's happy, I'll put up with him, but the moment she feels otherwise I'm kicking his pathetic self through the door.
