Kyo looked down at Tohru and moved a brown lock of hair from her face as he examined her bruises and cuts in the faint moonlight. How could he have let her get hurt like this? Who would want to do this to her? He looked back up at the door to see whether it had somehow got jammed, but it was still shut tight, almost unnoticeable against the bamboo wall around it. He looked down in surprise as Tohru made a small groan and looked up at who was holding her groggily.
Her wide brown eyes looked up into Kyo's red eyes, which were narrowed in concern at her raspy breathing.
"K-Kyo?" Tohru said softly, reaching a hand up to his face to make sure
Kyo looked up when a knock came to the apartment door. He knew who It was already, since he had cancelled his martial arts lessons with his students until further notice. He walked over to open the door, seeing Yuki's bright eyes look at him in concern.
"Hey." Kyo said in a low, slow voice of depression. Yuki walked forward, revealing Hatsuharu behind him, who walked in as well.
"I have no idea where she went. I thought about where they could have taken her all night, and I have no idea." Kyo said, running a hand through his orange hair in frustration as they all sat down on the floor, since there weren't enough chairs to seat them all.
"
Tohru walked into her and Kyo's apartment, closing the door behind her softly. She was still wearing her work uniform, and still in shock at how it looked on her. She had decided that she would sneak into the bathroom to change into regular clothes, and hopefully Kyo wouldn't...
"Tohru, is that you?" Kyo asked from the other room of the apartment. Tohru let out a cry of surprise and looked behind her to see Kyo moving around the corner. She sprinted from the room so that Kyo only had a glimpse at someone in black and white as he came into the next room.
"Hey- Tohru? Is that you? Answer me." Kyo said, now starting to get wary of this intrude
"What the hell?! Why is it so damn cold?!" Kyo shivered as they got off the train and made their way into the city.
"It's a nice change, I think." Tohru smiled, letting out a long breath that froze in the air and disappeared. She giggled and did it again as they walked through a small field.
"Nice, change, huh? I hope it's not like this for too long. No one ever mentioned this much snow when they mentioned Hokkaido." He grumbled, trudging through the snow drifts. He felt something cold hit him from behind and turned around to see Tohru standing with her luggage on the ground beside her, and a large scoop of snow gone from the ground. Her
Tohru looked out the window of the bus nervously on their way to the train. Kyo had talked about moving to a distant land- she hadn't realized it would be clear on the other side of Japan
She wondered how the others would do without her- she would be so worried about them.
"Hey- don't look so depressed." Kyo touched her shoulder softly to get her attention, and ran a hand through her hair slightly, the strands whispering through his fingers. "Everything will be alright. It will be a rough start on our own, but things will turn out, I promise."
"I know, I'm just worried about the others. What about Momiji? He looked so sad to see us
Tohru looked up from her textbook. Why was this so difficult? If only she'd had time to revise earlier, instead of cleaing Shigure's study again. Shigure's rolled up balls of paper had been littered everywhere. Of course, it was an honour that she was able to do that for him, it just left studying until the last moment.
"You should have studyed earlier," Kyo commented. "Don't blame us if you fail the exams."
"I'm sorry," Tohru said quickly.
"Stop being such a sourpuss, you stupid cat," Yuki muttered. "Miss Honda, do you need any help?"
"No, no," Tohru said, shaking her head. "I won't make you take time out of your busy schedule to help me
