Fruits Basket Fan Fiction ❯ Cursed Love, Forevermore ❯ Chapter 41

She had finished her meal as she sat quietly beside the two boys smiling carefree. "...Kyou-kun I was wondering if we could go up to the roof and watch the sunset."

 

Slowly he set down his bowl, turning his eyes towards her. "I suppose we could, if Yuki and Shigure can watch the baby and keep her happy."

 

"I'll be more then happy to watch my child." He smiled kissing Tohru's cheek.

 

"Alright... then we can go up to the roof and watch the sunset if you want." Slowly he stood and gathered the empty bowls.

 

She smiled then looked down. "Oh where's the bag?"

 

"On the kitchen counter," he said as he walked into the kitchen with the empty bowls, placing them in the sink and running water into them.

 

She blushed lightly as she got up heading into the kitchen retrieving the bag. "...I'll be right back Kyou-kun..." She left the kitchen heading upstairs. Nodding, he turned off the water and walked back out into the dining room, moving outside towards the ladder. She came back down smiling to Yuki before stepping outside to where Kyou was. Kyou was waiting for her, one hand on the ladder. He hummed a soft tune as he saw her approaching, giving a soft smile to the girl. She smiled in return as she kissed his cheek heading up the ladder not carrying if he saw up her skirt using that to advantage to her plan. He cast a quick glance upwards to see if she'd made it to the top of the ladder yet before he began to climb. He tried not to look up at her too much, not wanting to feel like he was taking advantage of her position. She pushed herself fully onto the roof walking carefully to the middle before sitting down.

 

Quietly he reached the top of the roof as well and walked over to her, taking a seat. "We barely did get out here in time."

 

"I know." She smiled kindly at him. "But we will see it even if it's a little bit."

 

He nodded softly as he looked out over the night sky. It was already starting to take on some orange coloring. She leaned over kissing him softly on the lips as she moved closer to him. A deep shade of crimson tinted his cheeks as he locked eyes with the girl that was kissing him and seeming to move constantly closer. She sat close to him now as she broke the kiss slowly.

 

"Tohru..." he whispered softly as the kiss broke, his cheeks a bright red as he looked down just a bit. He could feel a slightly familiar feeling, and it suddenly scared him.

 

She smiled at him kindly tilting her head to the side her hair falling to her left. "I love you Kyou-kun."

 

"I love you too, Tohru, but..." he said softly as he shifted uncomfortably. "I..." He couldn't think of what to say, not sure that she was indeed trying to get him.

 

She reached over petting his cheek softly. "But what...?" She said quietly trying to find his crimson orbs.

 

"Something doesn't feel right... right now." His voice was soft, his eyes closed part way. "I just... feel uneasy, like we shouldn't be here alone..."

 

“.... Its ok to be alone...." She leaned in kissing him softly once more.

 

Slowly he broke from the kiss, looking away a small bit. "Tohru... I..." he felt awful because he was speechless, he couldn't find the words.

 

She looked up to him before rummaging in her skirt pocket pooling out a package placing it in his hand. “.... Its what I forgot in the store."

 

Slowly he looked down at the box and went wide-eyed. "Tohru... we've discussed this... I can't risk your life, even if I wore this whole box it wouldn't be safe enough in my eyes..."

 

"... I love you Kyou-kun...." She laced one of her hands with his as she kissed him softly.

 

Again he found himself locked within a kiss with her. It was so difficult now to say no, but he knew he had to, for her. He couldn't let her do this to herself. She closed her eyes halfway slowly as she moved from his lips moving down his jaw line to his neck.

 

"T-Tohru... p-please don't..." he whispered almost breathlessly. He felt so helpless, her touch seeming to make him weak.

 

She placed her head on his shoulder. "...Kyou-kun I love you...." She moved back to his neck nipping playfully at him.

 

"I-I love you too Tohru... that's why I can't do this... I can't do this and ri..." his words were cut off as he lost all sense, his breath hitching from the nipping of his flesh. She was trying her best now to lure him she was trying her best to keep from crying she had to do this so they wouldn't be separated so Kyou wouldn't be forced into the cage.

 

Kyou's entire form seemed to shudder, his eyes closing as he felt a wash of heat spread under them and moistness near them. "B-But... you'll die..."

 

“.... Kyou-kun.... I'm not afraid to die for you...." She spoke barely above a whisper her head resting on his shoulder.

 

"I'm afraid... of losing you," he said as he shifted uncomfortably again. "How could I allow myself... to do that. I'd never be able to face the child, or anyone for that matter..."

 

"...Kyou-kun I love you so much..." She spoke once more gripping his arm with her hands almost hugging.

 

"I know Tohru..." he whispered softly as he lifted one hand and began to very lightly brush it through her hair. He didn't know what else to say, he felt so sorry for her, knowing what she was feeling for him.

 

“.... I don't think if it breaks I could get pregnant after having the child not to long ago...."

 

Kyou's crimson eyes locked on her's, a certain confused sadness locked within them. He didn't know what to do anymore; he couldn't feel what was right. He felt as though he were defeated, and she'd won... even though he couldn't help but feel that he was going to cause her death...

 

She looked up to him her eyes half opened as she reached up petting his cheek with her pale hand. “.... Kyou-kun whatever the outcome I will always love you..."

 

He couldn't speak, all he could do was nod softly and place his hand on her own. It was over for him, she'd won the game of seduction...
