Fruits Basket Fan Fiction ❯ Tohru-Kun's Hat ❯ A kiss and DDR ( Chapter 4 )

Tohru-Kun's Hat

A/N: I'm almost done with this story. I didn't want to make it to short, nor to long, so here's one of the last chapters.

A kiss and DDR

Disclaimer: If I owned Fruits Basket I would be working on continuing the anime rather than writing this… I think… so I don't own it… savvy?

A/N: I'm kinda not feeling good in the stomach, but my writing calls me to the computer… For this chapter… I just sorta wanted to do something to honor DDR. Mostly because I have it on my mind… and secondly, it may actually be something Kyo can beat Yuki at…??

~Yuki~

I still couldn't believe it. I could hug Miss Honda, hug her and never let her go. I wouldn't change unless I wanted to, (or was still stressed out) as Hatori put it. I could do more now, be closer to her. I could tell her that I loved her, and also that the hat she treasures I gave it to her…

~Kyo~

I… I could hug her now? When I wasn't able to, it was so much easier to try to push her away and avoid even coming near her, and yet, she always found me and such. Now I could hug her and be with her? I simply couldn't believe it… I had to tell her I loved her, I had to tell her I wanted to be with her forever. That hat… It was mine. That Damn rat may have given it to her, but I was the original owner of it…

~Tohru~

School's today, but Uo said something about a new game at the arcade, and I actually can't wait to check it out. She said it had something to do with music and dancing. She also muttered to Hana and me that you could compete against another person while playing, but not to tell "orange-top or the prince" until we got there, so I'm kind of having trouble focusing on class today. I mean, I know I shouldn't but it seems so alluring to see a game that requires Dancing to win! I just hope Yuki and Kyo don't go head to head and end up fighting again…

~Yuki~

The arcade was what Miss Uo wanted to show us? Oh, that's right; it was a new game she had found. And Kyo was obsessing over it already…

"C'mon you damn Rat! I'll take you on!" he said and ran up to the machine.

"Stupid Cat, why do you always want to take me on, you know you're going to just loose again!" I said and stepped forward. I noticed Tohru conversing with Uo and Hana for a moment, and then smiling at me.

"Go ahead, I'd rather see you two try it first," she said, "Just promise me you won't break anything."

"All right then, it's on," I said and ran up to the platform. Kyo had already put his money in and I did the same. I got up onto the platform and prepared to… I guess… Dance, Dance and then Dance some more. Geeze, why did I have to compete against Kyo first?

~Kyo~

This game is so awesome! I'm beating that damn rat! Beating him… beating him!

"Keep it up!" the machine egged on. Duh, I would do that of course, I've almost beat him! Wait, why was the beat increasing? Was it increasing? Was I just imagining it? Oh no, I can't keep up! DAMN IT! …I tripped…damn…

"Kyo, are you okay?" A soft voice asked me. It was Tohru!

"I'm fine…" I said, mumbling nonsense under my breath. Why couldn't she have not been here?

"C'mon, let's play, maybe you'll do better than orange-top here," Uo said to Tohru, taking her hand and leading her onto the machine. Uo put some change in and Yuki moved aside. I picked myself up and stepped back to watch. It was just another failure; I'll beat him as soon as the girls are done.

"Enjoyed loosing cat?" Yuki asked me.

"Shut your damn mouth," I said, and stood up strait. Tohru picked the first song, it was called Cartoon Heroes. She also set it onto the easiest level setting. I could have done that, but I didn't want to! I turned away and went to play another game. I couldn't really bear to face any of them, but I still wanted to talk to Tohru later. I had to tell her. I just had to tell her I loved her…

~Tohru~

I went to talk to Kyo later in the afternoon, on the roof of course. He seemed so upset over something; I just wanted to see what the matter was.

"Kyo-kun?" I asked, coming up onto the roof.

"What do you want?" he asked and I took a few steps down the ladder in fear.

"I just wanted to see if you were okay," I said and climbed up onto the roof with Kyo.

"Oh, I just… was so mad. I can't even beat that damn Rat at a game of dancing!" he exclaimed. I smiled sadly and sat close to him. I watched him turn beet red and look at me.

"Are you really okay?" I asked him.

"Well, there's been something… something I've been meaning to talk to you about," Kyo said.

"What is it Kyo-kun?" I asked, looking into his eyes.

"It's about that hat. The hat you received a while ago. Umm… it originally belonged to me…" he said, "There, that's finally off my chest. I mean, all this time we've spent together, never mind the hat, I've really enjoyed. I guess… what I'm trying to say is… I love you Tohru-Kun…" I looked at him, wide eyed. He gently brushed my cheek with his hand and lowered his lips onto mine and kissed me gently. I was pulled in closer and he brushed his lips gently over mine. I couldn't believe it! He was kissing me! An actual guy was kissing me! I fell into his embrace, which must have startled him, so he let go of me.

"Um… Kyo-kun?" I asked, startled at this.

"Never mind, just forget it!" he said. How could I? How could I just forget it now?

"Then… good night?" I asked, "Is that how you want to leave this?"

"Good night," he said stiffly, "Just for now, `kay? I… I still need to think…"

"Then good night," I said, and started down the ladder.

"And Tohru, I still meant what I said, about loving you and all…" he murmured. I headed down the ladder in complete and total shock. What had just happened? Was that how he really felt about me, he really loved me? But what about Yuki-kun, did he love me in the same way too? I was dizzy; I really could stand to lie down…

A/N: Well, that wasn't the last chapter, trust me… I'm almost done though. So, like it? Hate it? Let me know! (Do you want me to finish?) Who do you think she should choose?

JUST BECAUSE KYO AND TOHRU KISSED DOES NOT MEAN THAT SHE WILL CHOOSE KYO! I HOPE THESE CAPS WORDS EXPLAIN THAT FACT! (AT LEAST TO THOSE WHO READ A/N! Thank you…
