We don't own Fruits Basket

--------

Tohru sat in silence beside the window in his room watching the rain fall. She remembered as a child how much she loved to jump in the puddles or just walk in the rain with an umbrella, but now she hated it more then anything. She looked down to the bracelet on her wrist slowly sliding her fingers across the dried blood and bones of the monk.Slowly Kyo rolled onto his side and glanced over at the window, looking out at the rain. He'd spent so much of his life hating the rain, that even now, free of the curse, he still had no taste for getting out there. She slowly slipped from the windowseal crawling under the covers getting comfy beside the former cat. Kyo shifted a bit, his arm lifting up in preperation to fold around her, but stopped mid-way through his motion. He'd remembered that he couldn't hold her without her becoming a cat, a memory that bugged him. Tohru looked up to him seeing his arm wanting to wrap around her. She took his arm placing it over her stomach. His eyes closed when he felt her pull his arm down around her stomach, a slight smile spreading over his lips.

 

She blushed lightly as she looked to him she felt a little better now about being close to him. "... I get why you hate these kind of days..."

 

He nodded lightly as he lay there with her, his eyes still closed. "Yea... I still hate the rain..."

 

"... I tried to beat him today Kyou. I really tried..." She rolled over facing him her eyes focoused on his, her eyes had turned a soft orange now.

 

Kyo smirked slightly as he thought about the idea. "You really tried to fight with him? How'd that go..?"

 

"... He pushed me away he's scared though I know it. Cause he moved away and into his room while I was on the ground."

 

Kyo grinned slightly and looked back into her eyes as she spoke of her fight with Yuki. She rested her head on his shoulder. "... Do you think your master will teach me how to fight?"

"If you want him to... I'm sure he might, if I talk to him about it."

 

She nodded lightly smiling faintly. "I want to beat him Kyou so I can stay here with you..."

 

Kyo nodded softly as he smiled down at her, watching her eyes. She blushed a dark red looking away.

 

His arm resting on her stomach shifted a bit, his hand resting on her side, "Do you really wanna learn to fight..?"

 

She nodded lightly. "Yeah, I mean I have this urge to I don't want to give up."

 

Nodding lightly, he smiled, "Then we'll do something about it... I'll help."

 

She smiled looking to him kindly. "When you were the cat... Did you ever feel that way?"

 

"Yea... not that anything has changed, I still wanna beat him."

 

She sat up rather quickly covering her nose. "What's that smell!"

 

Kyo turned his head and sniffed, quickly covering his own nose, "Oh yuck! Who in the hell is cooking that stuff!?" She whimpered crawling back under the covers putting the pillow over her head.

 

"Blah... leeks," he mumbled before sticking his head under the blanket and holding his nose. She got out of bed moving away toward the door opening it quickly walking toward the kitchen where glass could be heard breaking.

 

Kyo blinked at the sounds and slowly climbed out of the bed, walking to the door and looking out towards the kitchen.

 

Shigure looked up from his paper as shouting could be heard from the other room from Tohru soon the rat came running out followed by the cat. "Tohru stop it I don't want to hit you!"

 

Kyo watched as Tohru chased Yuki around the living room, a smirk sliding over his lips. Yuki stopped finally pushing her back and into Shigure's lap so she wouldn't be hurt when she fell. Yuki ran past Kyou and upstairs. Kyo laughed softly as he watched the rat run past him and up the stairs. "Nice..."

 

Shigure smirked looking down to her. "What have a here my precious flower has decided to become my wife!"

 

Kyo growled and ran out of the room, "Don't you even think about it."

 

Tohru blinked looking up to him confused as Shigure wrapped his arms around her hugging her.

Kyo's hand crashed down on the top-middle of Shigure's head. "Don't even think about it dog," he said as he grinded his knuckles into the top of the pervert's head.

 

He whimpered letting Tohru slip away. "She most feel sad that no one holds her!" He yelped.

"She has someone to hold her, I hold her. Maybe I can't hold her like that, without her changing, but I hold her no less." He shrugged lightly as Tohru slipped away from site some more shouting could be heard upstairs from Yuki. Kyo walked to the stairs and looked up them, snickering quietly to himself as he waited for Yuki to come running down them.

 

Something could be heard slamming against the floor.Kyo blinked at the sound, standing at the stair base still, waiting for more sound. Tohru came running down the stairs and into his arms poofing into a small kitty.

 

Kyo blinked as he caught and held the kitten within his arms, scratching behind her ears, "What was that all about?"

 

"... I didn't win." She spoke sadly as Yuki stepped out standing at the foot of the stairs looking to the old cat sadly.

 

Kyo continued to pet her lightly, scratching behind her ears, knowing that she would soon forget about her loss, since he too loved that scratching when he was in such a form. She curled against him as she purred loudly. Yuki took this as the time to leave and go outside.

 

Slowly Kyo took her into the room once more and lay on the bed, petting her still and allowing her time to cool down. "... Kyou why can't I do anything..." She was still purring.

 

"What do you mean," he asked quietly as he brushed his fingertips over her small furry form.

She moved into his hand. "... I thought I could surprise him while he was changing..."

 

Kyo laughed slightly as he brushed his hand over her still, "You'll find that Yuki is not so easily defeated, whether he's surprised or prepared."

 

"I'm going to do it Kyou!" She licked his hand as she moved into his lap curling up.

 

"I'm sure you will," he said quietly as he continued to lightly brush his hand over her back.

She purred louder as her eyes closed. "... Kyou..."

 

"Hmm?" His reply was a quiet sound, fingertips gently dancing over her furry back.

"... I love you..." She rested her head on his thigh.

 

His hand slipped up and brushed between and behind her ears, "I know Tohru... I don't know how, but I do know..."

 

"... Do you love me too Kyou...?" She looked up to him sadly. He smiled reassuringly as he placed his hand on her head and brushed her ears back a bit.

 

She smiled faintly. "... When do you think we can try for a child...?"

 

"How about when we go to train..? That way we'll be away from here, where we can have some privacy."

 

"Unlike last time we tried?" She blushed a dark shade. He nodded lightly as he placed his hand on her neck, scracthing the back of it softly. She let out a playful growl.

 

"You think you should go get dressed..? After you transform, of course?"

 

"I will I'd doubt you want me running around naked with Shigure in the house."

 

"You're right about that, I don't trust that dog as far as I can throw him."

 

She thought for a moment. "Cause he can do things with me you can't?"

 

"I can do anything he can do, except wrap my arms around you," he said. "That's what I don't like, the fact that he would try to do things..."

 

"I woudn't though."

 

"I know that," he said quietly, "but I still don't trust him..." She sat up on her hind feet licking his cheek softly. He smiled a bit as he tilted his head and looked at her. "Why don't you go somewhere that you can change... and I'll go get your clothes?"

 

"Why can't I just wear your clothes when I change back?" She looked to him her tail wagging.

"Well... if you want, you can do that."

 

She smiled. "I do I love where your clothes they smell just like you." He nodded softly and smiled at her still. She climbed off his lap laying on the bed resting until she changed back. Kyo blushed lightly when she changed back. They'd been together before, but every time, the sight of her made him turn red.

 

She wrapped her body in his sheets. "What clothes can I wear?"

 

"A-Any that you want, I don't mind..."

 

She tilted her head. "Well you going to get it for me or do you want me to walk to your dresser naked?"

 

Kyo blushed a bit still and climbed out of the bed, "Uh... wh-which do you wanna wear?"

"Well what do you want me to wear?"

 

Slowly he pulled out his dresser drawer and grabbed a tanktop and pair of khaki shorts, tossing them onto the bed. "How's that?"

 

"Their good, hand me one of your boxers." She sat up sliding the tank top on.

 

Nodding a bit, he grabbed a pair of boxers and tossed them to her as well, just barely catching a glimpse of her as she pulled on the shirt. She slide his boxers, then his khaki shorts. "Thank you Kyou."

 

"Mhmm, no problem," he said, still blushing.

 

"Kyou when will it stop raining?" She sat up walking over to him.

 

"Never soon enough..." he said as he stood there looking down at her.

 

She whimpered sadly moving back to the bed. Slowly he walked over and sat down beside her, "It always feels like it takes forever..."

 

"What do you want to do to pass the time?"

 

"I dunno, what do you want to do?"

 

"Something that we can't do in the house."
