Of course it is...

~Kyou Sohma Chapter 123

 

Crouched on the ground, Kyou Sohma looked around carefully. Long past the end of visiting hours, he couldn't think of a single way to get himself into the room besides breaking into the hospital. That wouldn't go over well with anyone though, so he'd have to find something to do until morning.

 

`I should go talk to Shishou...' he thought, getting to his feet. Sighing, he took one final look at the hospital, promising himself to return first thing in the morning. He needed to make things right, he'd made too many mistakes when it came to her. Kyou owed Tohru the truth, but he had an opportunity to straighten some things before going to her. He wouldn't be able to sleep tonight, so in the meantime he'd smooth some of the parts of his life he'd completely messed up along the way.

 

He hadn't wanted it to happen this way, but it had and he couldn't do anything about it now. He'd made his choice and had to deal with the consequences, but he knew if he had the choice to make again, nothing would change. He'd still choose to stay by her side because he knew now…it was where he belonged.

 

`I won't let her lose another person she cares about…somehow I can do this,' Kyou thought, crossing the street as he made his way toward the dojo. If there was anyone willing to help him, it was his Shishou. He'd never been like the rest of them…

 

`I wanted to be that way, like you are…' Thinking about Yuki's words from earlier, Kyou sighed. It didn't make any sense to him, why would the rat want to be like the cat? He couldn't understand, he probably never would…but now…things were just strange. They'd been fighting for so long…

 

Kyou stopped, staring at the telephone booth in front of him as his mind quickly formulated a plan. Grinning, he jogged over and pulled some change from his pocket. He needed to thank the damned rat for knocking some sense into him, and he planned to do just that.

 

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

But, normally a person'd realise it...

He's an idiot. He really is an idiot. That guy.
He should really be taught a lesson by Uotani-san and Hanajima-san too...
Ahahah

 

~Yuki Sohma Chapter 123

 

They sat there, staring in shock at the side of him they'd probably never seen before. In all actuality, Yuki was quite proud of himself, he'd finally gotten to express a large portion of the contents of his box and dump them on the person who needed to hear them. Still, he was irritated that the baka neko had been the one to tell him that first…so he'd sent him on a pointless journey, knowing full well Kyou wouldn't take time to think that the hospital would be closed.

 

“Ahahahhhaha!” A voice boomed behind him, yanking Yuki from his good mood. “I came to comfort my dear brother! Kyonkichi called me and said you were in need of comfort that only your cherished older brother could supply! I am here, my precious Yuki! I will hold you until your pain is gone!”

 

Ayame ran across the kitchen, arms spread wide as he lunged toward Yuki. Sighing, Yuki dodged the hebi, letting him run past him. “Why are you here, nii-san?”

 

“To comfort you, my dear precious Yuki,” Ayame said dramatically, grabbing his brother's hand and holding it to his heart. “I know how upsetting today has been for you and I intend to make everything better!”

 

“Get out,” Yuki replied happily, turning around and walking past Shigure and Haru as he headed for the steps. He'd almost made his way out the door when he paused, suddenly realizing what the hebi had said. A smile slowly spread over his face as he turned back to his brother, “I changed my mind, nii-san. I think we need some bonding time tonight. I want to learn to sew.”

 

Ayame dug his cell phone from his pocket and Yuki lunged for it, grabbing it from his hand before he could call Hatori. “Yuuuuuki! I needed to tell Tori-san all about how you want to booooond with me!”

 

“You don't need to tell Hatori anything!” he growled, holding the phone from Ayame as the snake tried to reach for it. “Just let me get the things I need sewn, and you can start.”

 

“I don't need to teach you! I will sew anything you want me to!”

 

Yuki grinned, “No…I want to learn.” The nezumi raced out of the room and up the stairs, before entering the room at the far end of the hall. He pulled several pairs of pants and a few shirts from the dresser before heading back downstairs. Dropping the pile on the table, he laughed evilly.

 

“Uh…Yuki…” Haru said, looking at the clothes, back at Yuki, then back to the clothes again. “These are Kyou's clothes…”

 

“Yes…yes they are…” he replied, taking the needle Ayame offered as he pulled Kyou's favorite shirt from the pile. “Can you show me how to embroider `I love Kagura' on this shirt, nii-san?”

 

Ayame laughed, “Of course, Kyonkichi would love that!”
