Hatori didn't even look at the cat as he walked passed him closing the door behind him. Tohru was breathing weakly blood still stained her cheeks and her hair."Tohru," whispered the orange-haired boy, his hand slowly reaching out to brush the backside of his fingers over her cheek. She flinched at his touch her eyes openning slowly as she shivered.

 

"A-Are you ok.." he asked, his head hanging low. She slowly nodded as she looked to him fear in her eyes.

 

His head sank lower, coming to rest on the bed beside her as he let his hand slip away from her face, "I..." She reached over placeing her hand on his head weakly petting him.

 

His eyes fell closed at the feel of her touch, his body jerking slightly in a stifled sob. It was true he felt like a monster... it was he that'd done this, though it was beyond his control, he still knew what happened. "... I'm glad... That you came back..." She spoke arely above a whisper struggleing as she petted him softly still.

 

"Shhh... don't talk..." he replied in a hushed tone, slowly moving away from her a bit and taking her hand, laying it beside her. "Rest... get better..."

 

"... Will you stay...?" She spoke looking to him her eyes seeming to loose her viberante azure color.

 

"Yea... I'll stay right here... You need to rest though..." he said softly as he moved to the corner and grabbed a chair, moving to where she was to sit by her side.

 

She closed her eyes slowly after seeing him move close to her. "... Kyou I don't want to lose you again..."

 

He lowered hs head and nodded so very lightly, "I... I'm so..." She openned her eyes looking to him her hand sliding up to his cheek.

 

His hand slowly lifted to cup her hand, "I'm sorry Tohru..."

 

She smiled weakly. "... Why are you sorry I ran away from you... I can't beleive I did that too you... I must seem so childish..."

 

His head shook, "You... should have ran further... faster... I was... not myself."

 

"... I know you weren't..., but that had to be painful watching me run away from you in fear..." tears started rolling down her cheeks. "... I ran like everyone else..."

 

His head shook softly, "No... what hurt was watching my hands... my arms... hurting you, and not being able to stop them..."

 

She petted his cheek softly as she looked to him sadly. "... Can I hold you...?"

 

"Y-You want... to..?" She nodded lightly as she opened her arms for him to hug her bruises and stiches could be seen.

 

Slowly, he moved from the chair and onto the side of the bed with her, slowly laying down beside her and taking her into his arms, "I... I'm so sorry that I did this to you..."

 

"... You did nothing wrong..." She spoke softly as poof could be heard as she held the orange ball close to her.

 

Curling up against her, the small orange cat sighed softly and buried his face against her, nuzzling at her affectionatly. She smiled faintly as she petted him softly using her left hand pulling the sheet over the two.Under the cover, he curled up close against her so that she would know he was there, hoping that she would rest so that her wounds could better heal. Yuki moved into the room durring the night taking a place next to the bed watching Tohru rest unknowing that Kyou was there.

 

Kyo slept peacefully, snuggled up against the girl as she slept, the warmth of her body and the blanket helping to make him all the more comfortable, an ever-so-slight purr escaping him from time to time. Yuki fell asleep with his head on her bed his hand holding her free hand. As the sun slowly rose, Kyo slowly began to shift around under the blankets, waking up a little at a time. Tohru pulled him closer to her body as an instinct like he was a stuff toy.

 

Kyo's eyes opened wide when he felt her grip tighten, a slight squeek-like sound of pain escaping him. Her eyes opened quickly as she let go pulling the covers down cause yuki to sit up from where he had his head on the bed.Quickly Kyo jumped off the bed and started checking himself for anything broken, looking like some clown jerking around and trying to look at his own back,

 

She pushed herslef up looking down to him sadly. "I'm sorry Kyou!"

 

Yuki stood now walking to the cat grabbing him by the scruff of the neck. "What did you do to her?!"

 

Kyo clawed and bit at Yuki's hand, "I didn't do anything to her you big bastard, she squeezed me!"

 

He dropped the cat on the floor as the cat bit his hand kicking him. "Get out of here!" Yuki screamed at the cat.

 

"Make me!" Kyo ignored the pain of the kick and ran at Yuki, pouncing on and climbing up Yuki's leg using his claws to grip at clothing and flesh alike.

 

Tohru leaned in grabing Kyou holding him against her chest. "... At least you two are back to your normal selfs..." She smiled faintly.Kyo glared back at Yuki and smirked, sticking his tongue out at the rat.

 

Yuki glared at the cat. "Hatori will probably be up with some food for Tohru in a bit."

 

Kyo nuzzled lightly against Tohru, rather enjoying the way she held him, knowing that it made her feel better, as well as making him feel happier, knowing she wasn't mad or scared anymore. Yuki walked out of the room closing her door. Tohru slowly laid Kyou down before laying down again shivering. Smiling, Kyo slowly curled up against her once more.

 

She leaned over petting him softly. "Thank you for being there for me..." He nodded very slightly, still nuzzling into her so very lightly.

 

"... Kyou, will Akito-sama know about this...?" She looked to him sadly. "... Will Hatori erase my memories of you...?"

 

"I don't think so... I won't let anything like that happen to you..." he said softly as he lay in her arms.

 

"... Kyou have you ever thought of a family...?" She closed her eyes now as she petted him.
