It had been two days since Kyo had his memories altered; he was now sitting next to Tohru's bed, holding her hand.
"Please wake up Tohru. I'm sorry I left before. Just wake up and I promise I'll never leave your side ever again." Kyo spoke, pleading with Tohru to wake up.
"How is she?" Hatori asked, walking into the room.
"The same." Kyo muttered.
"Move over a little; let me see." Hatori instructed, making Kyo move a little.
He checked Tohru's temperature, pulse, blood pressure, heart, and lungs; everything was normal except for her pulse, which was low due to little activity.
"She'll be fine, Kyo. I'm sure she'll wake up very soon." Hatori said as he walked out of her room.
Three Hours Later:
"Mmm…" Kyo was pacing around Tohru's room like a madman until he saw her hands clutch her blanket, and she let out a soft moan.
"Tohru? Tohru, are you alright? Open your eyes; please open your eyes." Kyo begged, pleading with Tohru.
"MmmmMmm…" Tohru replied, shaking her head.
"Why not?" Kyo asked, somewhat hurt.
"I don't want to open my eyes and you not be there." Tohru sadly answered, causing Kyo's heart to break.
"I promise you, Tohru; I'm right here." Kyo promised, taking her hand in his.
After a few seconds, Tohru slowly opened her eyes to see none other than Kyo standing there, holding her hand in his as he promised.
"Kyo, you're back." Tohru spoke, trying to sit up.
"Yeah, I'm back. And I promise I'll never leave you like that ever again." Kyo promised as he went in and hugged her tightly to him; she returned his hug while crying into his chest.
"Tohru, you're awake! How long has she been awake you damn cat? Why didn't you come get us?" Yuki asked, demanding an answer.
"Now that's enough, Yuki; Tohru is Kyo's girlfriend. He probably just wanted some time with her before we all came barging in." Hatori stated, being the voice of reason.
"Oh, Tohru, how I've missed you; I'm so hungry! Without you here, we've only had Yuki's burnt offerings or horrid takeout. And the house is once again a disaster." Shigure complained.
"Will you shut up?!" Kyo and Yuki exclaimed, each throwing something at the former mutt.
"When will you learn to behave yourself?" Hatori asked, walking over to Tohru's bedside.
"How are you feeling; you've been asleep for about a week now." Hatori asked but immediately regretting it.
"A WEEK?! Oh, no; I have to get the house tidied up. What time is it? I have to get food ready as well!" Tohru exclaimed, trying to get out of bed, only to have Kyo push her back down.
"Relax. Everything will be fine for another day or two. You just need to rest and get better." Kyo sternly ordered.
"He's right; you're probably too weak to do anything right now. Now, how are you feeling?" Hatori asked after agreeing with Kyo.
"I guess I'm a little hungry." Tohru softly replied; she wasn't used to people caring about her so much like this.
Sure, she knew everyone cared about and worried about her—but not like this.
"I'll go see what I can find you to eat." Hatori thoughtfully spoke, leaving the room, only to stop in his tracks.
"Don't worry about that, Hatori; we brought her some food as soon as Shigure told us she was awake." Haru stated, walking up with Momiji and Kisa.
"Sissy, are you feeling better now?" Kisa worriedly asked, running over to the bed.
"Oh, yes; I feel much better, thank you." Tohru lied.
"Don't lie to us. What's wrong?" Kyo asked right away, knowing Tohru well enough to know when she lied; they all did.
"I'm just a little hungry—and I guess my head hurts a little, and it's making me a little dizzy." Tohru admitted.
"So then lie down for a little while!" Momiji exclaimed, bouncing all over the place.
"Ok…" Tohru reluctantly complied, lying down.
"It's just potato and leek soup." Haru told Tohru, placing the soup next to her bed, causing Kyo to scrunch up his nose. Oh, how he hated leeks.
"Well, I have to be headed out; I have plans. I hope you feel better very soon." Haru stated, heading out along with Momiji; Kisa stayed behind to make sure Tohru was eating and such.
"Please make sure you eat all that you can eat, Tohru." Kisa instructed, looking at Tohru, concerned as she ate the soup.
"Don't worry; I will. It's so delicious." Tohru replied, causing Kyo to make faces.
After she was done eating, Hatori came back up.
"Ok Kisa, it's time to go home and leave these two alone. I'm sure Kyo wants some alone time Tohru." Hatori told Kisa.
"Ok! Feel better Tohru." Kisa said before hugging Tohru and headed out with Hatori.
Only Hatori, Shigure, and Ayame knew what was going to happen tonight, so they got the others and took them elsewhere…
