SLEEPLESS NIGHT
A Fruits Basket Fanfic

AUTHOR'S NOTE:
GAH! I've been working on an idea for this story for a few weeks and I think I may have actually turned it into a decent story. =P My first attempt at Kyoru so please be gentle. *bows* This part is told from Kyo's POV. Standard Disclaimer follows the story.
Part One - Only a Kiss
I'm not sure what woke me up out of my deep slumber. Perhaps it was my own deep rooted thoughts. My brain wouldn't seem to leave me alone. Thought after thought simply crammed through the small recesses of my brain, causes my head to throb and pound. A headache. Just great. I hate headaches.
And as hard as I try to clear my mind, nothing works.
Who knew that one kiss could be so...so...oh I don't know! If I knew I wouldn't feel so...so...confused? Tormented? Sinfully wicked?
Shit, now I'm starting to sound like Shigure!
Still it was only a stupid kiss. A silly, open mouthed, totally wet and godforsaken passionate kiss. I have to shake my head to clear it of the memory. But even so it plays back like a freakin' CD recorder stuck on 'repeat'.
I had volunteered to help clean the table after dinner. Well, it was more like I'd been left alone to help. Shigure usually leaves the table before the rest of us and the rat had been late getting home from school. He needed to study, he said. Please excuse me, Miss Honda, he said. I'll help you tomorrow, he said. I scowled while Tohru ushered the stupid rat up to his room.
So there I was, stuck with an armful of dirty dishes, alone, in the kitchen, with Tohru.
Now most guys my age would be thinking 'alone with a pretty girl, this is my chance.' Sneaking in a kiss or a casual grope is nothing new. I know half of my classmates would JUMP at the chance to be alone with Tohru. Not that I'd let them.
And then there's me thinking, 'Holy shit I'm alone with Tohru, what do I do? What do I do?!'
For starters I shouldn't have been as anxious as I was. I mean, I'd been alone with Tohru before. Hell she's even seen my darker side and she hasn't gone running yet. Probably too stupid for her own god, I tell you. Still, I've spent time with Tohru in the past. Why should this be any different?
I wonder if it had anything to do with a dream I had a few nights ago.
I had fallen asleep on the roof, per usual. It was a warm night, so I didn't mind. The cool breeze caused me to drift to sleep easily. And the dream itself...well, it was hotter than hell!
It felt so real I tell you. The passionate kisses. The roaming hands. The feel of heated flesh on top of heated flesh. It. Felt. Real. Although the climax was something of a dud because when I awoke before sunup, I had a tent in my pants that Shigure would probably be proud of.
And the fact that it was Tohru's face I'd seen. Her body I'd imagined. Her voice I'd heard. Well, THAT certainly didn't make being alone with her any easier than normal.
I watched as Tohru went about her usual after dinner routine. You would never know its her unless you watched closely. She's a goddess in the kitchen. She never trips. She never drops anything. She moves around as gracefully as a dancer on ice. It's quite amazing.
When she started to wash the dishes, I unconsciously stood beside her and dried them. Well, perhaps I was conscious because I was very well aware of how close we were standing. I was very well aware that she smelled like strawberries and vanilla. And I was very...VERY much aware of what her presence was doing to me.
The dishes were wiped clean of any dirt and water and then set aside to be put away. The cycle was going well until Tohru winced and pulled her hand out of the water. She quickly put her finger in her mouth and jumped slightly, staring at the dishwater as if it had just bitten her.
And in an odd way it had.
"Nani?" I asked her and she looked up at me with wide eyes.
She pulled her finger from her mouth -- and do I really need to tell you what THAT was doing for me -- and replied, "I think I cut myself." She holds up teh finger in question for me to examine.
There was a spec of blood on the finger she showed me. Carefully taking her hand in mine, I looked at the cut more closely. It wasn't a big cut, probably just deep. Must've cut it on a knife in the water. Well it was pretty brown and difficult to see.
Now what happened next surprised the hell out of me. Instead of telling her to go up to the bathroom and wash the cut out. Instead of telling her to put a band-aid on the wound, I bring her finger up to my lips and place the tip of her finger into my mouth, cleaning the cut of the blood and other harmful stuff with my tongue.
I hadn't even realized I'd done it until I heard Tohru moan. When my eyes met hers she was watching me intently, her eyes half lidded and curious. My heart thudded, stopped, then thudded again. Her lips were slightly parted from a gasp and that's when I completely lost my mind.
She pulled her finger from my mouth of her own free will, but only moments before my lips swooped over hers. They brushed lightly at first until she gasped again and I dared to lick her upper lip with my tongue. She moaned, her lips moving with mine, and I pressed my lips harder to hers, unable to hold back.
We drew apart quite suddenly, both of us gasping for air. There was no noise in the house, no sound to break us of our passionate kiss. Yet there we were, staring at each other and breathing heavily. All I needed was for Shigure to walk in. Or worse yet, that damned rat!
"Kyo-kun?"
Her voice is ragged and confused. That same confused, questioning look echoed in her eyes. She wanted to know why I kissed her. Hell, I'd like to know too!
And she kissed me back. She KISSED me BACK!
'I'm sorry' and 'Don't ask stupid questions' were the first responses to appear in my head at her questioning gaze. Did she have any idea how tantalizing she looked standing there, blushing and breathless? Probably not.
"You should bandage the cut," I tell her, despite my best efforts to think of something cool to say.
Unable to say anything else in response, she nodded and hurried from the kitchen. I'm not sure what happened when she came back to the kitchen...if she went back to the kitchen. I was already on the roof trying to clear my head and think straight for a change.
I managed to fall asleep amidst my jolted nerves and anxious thoughts. And for a while everything seemed black...like my mind was blank, and I felt myself drifting further into sleep.
So why the hell am I sitting here wide awake?!
I should go for a jog. Yeah. That should help sooth my nerves if nothing else. Maybe I'll get an early start to my work out. What time is it anyway?
As I start to climb down I notice a light being flicked on. I probably wouldn't have noticed had it not been Tohru's room. I couldn't see anyone walking around and wondered if something was wrong. After a moment of careful concentration I don't hear any yelling from either Tohru, Yuki or Shigure that would indicate something's amiss.
Maybe she's having as much trouble sleeping as I am.
Feh, serves her right.
That was one hell of a kiss!
I lower myself towards her window and take a peek. Yuki will beat the shit out of me and Shigure will tease me endlessly if either of them finds out. Still, I need to know that she's okay. If she is, then there's nothing to do but go about my business.
Of course, I didn't expect to find her crying.
Shit!
Why was she crying?!
