Chapter
20: “New Years”
“Come
on we’ll be late,” called Kagura from in front of the four men. Tohru walked along side her as they made
their way to the main house.
“Is
it true though,” asked Tohru. “Since
essentially it’s the year of the cat this year, they’re letting him attend.”
“Yeah
I guess it means he’s now really part of the family,” gushed Kagura. “I’m so happy for him.”
“Yeah
this is something he’s wanted his whole life,” Tohru gushed as well. The two girls walked on with contented looks
on their faces.
“You
know, not only does he attend this year but this year is his turn to dance!”
“He
gets to dance,” asked Tohru who got a nod in reply from Kagura. “Wow, this is so great!”
“Yeah
I can’t wait! I’ve always wondered how
Kyo would do when it came to the dance.
Believe it or not most of the guys are very graceful when it comes to
the dance, it naturally comes to them.”
“Yeah
but a lot of them have done it twice already right?”
“Yeah
I guess you’re right. But I don’t think
Kyo could do that badly. Hey we’re
here!” Kagura took off at a run for the
main house where Rei was waiting at the door.
“Hello
Kagura,” she greeted to girl.
“Hello! You must be the nurse watching over Akito,
you’re Rei right? I remember you from
the hospital. Thank you for taking good
care of me and Tohru.”
“Yes,
thank you for taking care of me,” said Tohru with a bow showing respect.
“I’m
just glad you’re both better. Especially
you Tohru.” Tohru absentmindedly rubbed
the small bulge she had acquired as he third month approached.
“We
gonna stand out here all day and freeze,” Kyo grumbled before Rei stepped back
and allowed everyone inside.
“Tohru,”
yelled a very familiar voice before a blond haired boy latched onto her and
with a poof of smoke turned into a small yellow rabbit.
“Hello
Momiji,” she greeted hugging him. “It’s
good to see you again.”
“It’s
great to see you too! I missed
you!” He looked down as he felt his
feet brush against her stomach. “Wow
the baby is so big already! What is
it?”
“I
don’t know Momiji, it’s going to be a surprise,” she said as she set him down
to remove her coat and boots as most of her friends had already done. Tohru felt her hand shake as she went to
take her coat off. She was doing a very
good job of hiding how nervous she was but now that she was here…this would be
the first time she’d see Akito since the accident. She felt herself involuntarily shudder.
“Are
you all right,” asked Kyo coming to her side.
“Yeah
just the chill from outside go to me.”
He nodded but stayed close to her side.
Tohru took a deep breath as their group entered the main house and made
their way to the main chamber where the party would be held. “Wow,” she said as she looked around at the
brightly lit room with many of gold and orange looking decorations. Everyone was standing around talking and
actually looked a bit happier then what she was told most of them were like
from previous years. “Why are they so
much happier,” she asked Kyo in a quiet whisper.
“Maybe
because this will be the last year we’re cursed,” he said stealing a quick kiss
from her before excusing himself to the bathroom. Tohru never really felt threatened by any of the Sohma’s, except
maybe Akito. Even though Hatori assured
her her health was priority one to Akito she still didn’t want to get very
close to him tonight. ‘Oh mother what
should I do? I shouldn’t be afraid of
Akito, it’s rude after all he’s done to make sure me and the baby are ok, but I
can’t help this…fear inside of me. I’m
so ashamed!’
“Tohru.” She jumped and let out a little yelp of
surprise before turning to see an equally startled Ritsu.
“Oh
Ritsu, sorry I was just thinking and you kind of startled me.”
“Oh
no I’m sorry! It’s all my fault! Please forgive me! I DON’T DESERVE TO LIVE!
I-” Ritsu fell to the floor as Shigure turned him off by pressing the
off button on his side.
“Arigato,”
she whispered softly to Shigure. She
turned as she heard somewhat of a commotion and felt her breath taken
away. There stood Kyo in a somewhat
golden orange flowing kimono with a sash.
Even as built and lanky and tall as he was, it looked good hanging, no
flowing off of his slim but muscular body.
She guessed a lot of other people were shocked as well. ‘Kyo, I’m so happy for you. You’re finally accepted. You finally got your wish.’
The
music started slowly as Kyo tried to get his bearings and rhythm. Soon enough, like Kagura said, he took to
the dance naturally. His body swaying
and moving with a power all it’s own.
Tohru briefly took her eyes off of Kyo to see others watching in awe as
well. It didn’t even seem like Kyo was
dancing anymore, more like he was gilding as he moved lithely like he had done
this a hundred times already. As she
was watching him dance her eyes followed his every move. It was then she saw him; she had been
watching Kyo as he took another movement to the right and something in the
background had caught her attention.
Akito. She felt her heart stop
as he was also staring at her. But his
look sent chills down her spine; he was looking at her, with almost a
hunger. She felt herself shiver but was
thankful when Kyo’s form came back into her line of vision and was able to
break away from Akito’s gaze. It seemed
like it ended too soon as Kyo’s dance finally wound down and left everyone
clapping. He walked over to Tohru.
“So,
was I any good?”
“Don’t
you hear everyone clapping,” she asked beaming with happiness.
“Yeah,
but I wanted to know your opinion.”
“You
were great,” she said with that huge smile still plastered on her face. He leaned down to give her a quick peck
before turning to talk to Hatori who no doubt wanted to ask if Tohru was aright
since she seemed to be getting either grumpier or weepier whenever he directly
asked her lately. Kyo turned to talk to
Tohru again when he noticed she was gone.
He excused himself to go the bathroom where he didn’t find her. He hadn’t missed it, the way Akito had been
staring at Tohru all through the dance.
He made his way around the main house they were in quickly before coming
to the conclusion she wasn’t there. He
went to the door and noticed her coat and boots were gone and quickly put on
his own before dashing into the yard still in the robes from when he was
dancing. He dared not call her name for
fear of Akito overhearing. It was what
Hatori had told him before Tohru disappeared.
He asked if she was felling alright, but also wanted to warn him that
Akito was thinking of making Tohru a permanent resident at the main house. He had all but given up as a slight patch of
snow from the roof fell on him. He was
about to curse at the roof when he noticed a loan figure sitting on it.
“Tohru,”
he said softly more to himself then calling to her. He made his way up a nearby tree and onto the roof. The loan figure seemed startled as she saw
him approached but relaxed as she realized who he was. “What are you doing up here?” He sounded agitated but she had known him
well enough by now to know he was worried.
“I’m
sorry,” she said bowing her head. “I
just wanted to get out of there, I mean I liked the party I just-“
“Didn’t
like the way Akito kept staring at you.”
His words took her by surprise and it showed on her face. “Yeah I noticed too.” She hung her head again. “I’m not supposed to tell you this,” he said
getting her to look at him again as he took a seat next to her. “But he wants you to move into the main
house.” She tried to plaster her smile
on again but Kyo knew she’d rather go to school naked the rest of the
year. “I won’t let him,” he said taking
her in his arms and holding her to his chest.
“Kyo?”
“I
won’t let him take you away from your family and your friends, from me. He doesn’t have as much power over us anymore. Just a few more months and we’ll be free.”
“But
he finally accepted you into the family, what if he decides to remove you from
the family? Please don’t do it because
of me!”
“Don’t
be stupid! He only accepted me because
of you; I don’t care if he removes me.
Before all this I had nothing, I had my father and me who lived alone
and the damn curse I had to deal with and sometimes Akito I had to deal
with. The only person who cared was my
father, and Kagura,” he added softly.
“But I thought if I was accepted by the family I would have a big
family, and I would be happy, have something to fill the void. Dad could only do so much, and I love him
for all of it, but one person alone can’t fill the void. That’s why I wanted to be accepted, so I wouldn’t
be the outsider, so I wouldn’t be lonely.
But after I met you, I found out I didn’t need it anymore.” He pulled her close so she was sitting
between his legs with her back to his front as he laid his head on her
shoulder. “You don’t need a lot of
people to be happy, all you need are a few people who really care. That’s why everyone loves you, because you
care about everyone.”
“Kyo,”
she said softly resting herself against his warm body as they stayed up waiting
for the dawn.
Tohru
blinked as she saw the first of the night sky disappear to show the coming of
the dawn. It’s almost dawn Kyo,” she
said drawing his attention to the sky.
“Happy
New Year Tohru,” he said as he leaned in for a kiss.
“Happy
New Year Kyo,” she whispered before he took her lips in a passionate kiss as
the first few rays of the sun washed over them. Tohru slowly let her arms wrap around him when *poof* she
was holding an orange cat.
“What,”
Tohru asked still holding him out at arms length.
“What
the hell,” he said in a much more colorful hate filled tone. “What happened!?”
“I-I-I
don’t know, I just went to hug you. Oh
god what if the curse isn’t broken!”
“What
if it’s the baby,” asked Kyo looking worried.
Tohru started getting swirly eyed and looked ready to fall. “Hey don’t get like that now!” She was now holding him to her chest as she
strained to not fall. As much as he
didn’t want to call for help, he was pretty helpless right now and didn’t want
Tohru getting hurt. “Someone, get out
here! We’re on the roof! Tohru’s getting woozy she might fall! Someone get out here now!!”
Kagura
had just woke up in her old bedroom, which was now a guest room. “Why am I awake this early,” she asked
herself as she looked at her clock when she heard it. ‘Kyo-kun, calling for help?
But why? This must be bad!’ She jumped out of bed and ran to Yuki’s room
getting him up for help.
“What
are you doing awake this early? I mean
we did stay up-” She hushed them and they waited, Yuki thinking she had finally
lost it, when he heard Kyo too.
“What
the hell? Go get Haori and Rei,” he
said in a commanding tone. Yuki didn’t
wait for a reply as he ran to the front door and threw his gear on running
outside. He ran about halfway around
the main house before he spotted them on the roof and was in for a great
shock. ‘Kyo changed into a cat
again?!’ And he also saw the teetering
Tohru on the roof trying to keep herself up.
Yuki quickly climbed the tree and clamored up the roof to where Kyo was
now yelling at him to hurry. Yuki took
hold of Tohru’s shoulders and held her steady until he heard Hatori below
asking if everything was alright. Yuki
finally got Tohru back to her senses and had her grab Kyo’s cloths and told her
to hold onto him until they got on the ground.
Which was difficult enough as she was still a bit off balance but
eventually her feet touched the ground and she set Kyo down.
Hatori
took her immediately to his doctor’s office while Kyo dragged his cloths inside
until he could change back and get dressed.
Yuki waited for him to get dressed and even came with him as he went to
see Hatori but was told to stay outside because it was a bit cramped
already. The minutes seemed to drag on
and on as they waited to hear if she was alright. Eventually Tohru came out with Rei behind her.
“Tohru,”
Kyo said jumping up. “Are you ok, what
the hell happened,” he yelled the last part of the sentence directed at Rei.
“The
New Year,” she said simply.
“What
the fuck is that suppose to mean?!”
“What
she means,” Hatori said coming out of the office. “Is that we checked Tohru over very thoroughly twice and found
nothing wrong. But-“
“But
then I though,” cut in Rei. “The curse
said that Tohru needed to be pregnant before the New Year. So you kind of had a one year window of opportunity
available to you until the baby is born.”
“So
I’m cursed again,” he asked sounding very downhearted.
“Only
until the baby is born,” said Rei. Kyo
swiftly turned and went to go outside probably to sulk on the roof or break
something. Tohru followed after him to
try and calm him down. The next few
months would be quite interesting.
Author’s Note: Ok I hope to finish this up soon so I don’t
just drag it on, so after a few more chapters (like 4 or 5) I hope to be
done. Thanks to all of you who have
reviewed and helped inspire me to continue with this! Thanks to you all!
