He watches, jaw set, as Tohru scribbles some numbers across the paper, twirling a piece of her hair around her finger absentmindedly, and tries not to picture how it would look wrapped around his hand, her neck arched backwards in pleasure. He decides he cannot blame Adam for the bite that expelled him from Eden.

Summary
She sighs and reaches up to feel for her bandage. It doesn’t hurt like it used to, which must mean she’s getting better.
She hates that.
Because getting better means she’ll have to leave the hospital soon. She’ll have to stay at Shigure’s house once more.
She’ll have to see him again.

Summary
For so long he’s felt the same for her, had merely glanced at her and a wave of want and need would reverberate through his body. And now he has her. He knows what she’s feeling, the sense of relief and joy and freedom that blankets both of them.
So he does what he knows he has to do. He takes his free hand and wipes her tears. She opens her eyes which gaze directly into his, and he says it again; those three words he only said once today, and would say every day for the rest of his life.
“I love you.”-

“This feels familiar, doesn’t it?”
He looks at the Tohru, the sunset behind them, the hardwood under his feet, the black shirt on his chest, the sheets around them. It makes him inhale sharply.
Oh.
It all comes flooding back.

Summary
He knew back then that this girl was special. Though he couldn’t stand or comprehend why he instantly melted at the sight of her, his heart fluttering in ways he didn’t even know it could. He would curse himself for being drawn so closely to her in that way; he refused to understand why his thoughts slowly but surely became more about her, and only her.
And here he was, two years later, free from a centuries-old curse, completely certain that he was madly, utterly, irrevocably in love with Tohru; the girl he ran home to on their first New Years together; the girl he was currently running at the speed of light for.

Summary
The warmth is never sweltering, even through the summer heat, and never fades, even in the frigidity of winter. It is always comforting and assuring — a safe haven. And he knows something as unnerved as this love that acts as the core of it all has been nurtured from one generation to the next.
Something as precious as this is meant to be passed down again and again till the end of time.
Something as precious as this, he threatens to end.

Summary
‘It’s not my fault,’ he says. Those words remind Kyo of his childhood self, holding his head and desperately trying to stay afloat. He clung to his hatred, too, because he was also fearful of what the world had in store for him. Everyone left him behind, and he only had his bitter feelings left to wallow in. And, though it doesn’t justify anything, maybe Moritaka is the same. Maybe, that’s exactly where he learned it from.
But Kyo is different now, and he refuses to allow this cycle to continue any longer. So, he grips Moritaka’s wrist, and, before the man can say anything else, he promises, “I will be back.”
Kyo releases him. Moritaka stumbles back, dumbfounded, as Kyo thanks the woman who let him in. As he walks down the hall, Kyo hears Moritaka call out curses and blame, but Kyo doesn’t allow them to hold him down inside the darkness of that house.
He is able to leave, and he will.Five times Kyo’s biological father insults him and one time he doesn’t.

Summary
“These tears seem to come from an overflow from within. A wave of relief washes away Kyo’s anxieties, and he doesn’t seem to know how to react. He must’ve expected today to be like other days. He must’ve expected nothing from Kazuma, and he must’ve expected to continue to walk on a withering rope seeming to never end. This child must not have expected to feel special. It must be a foreign feeling to him, one he cannot easily accept and one he is afraid of. And Kazuma is glad to see those tears stream down his cheeks once again, if only to ease the fragile body of this precious, young boy.”
Or, four of Kyo’s birthdays through Kazuma’s eyes.

"You and Tohru-kun have a date tomorrow, do you not?" Hanajima cocked her head.
"Yeah, why?" And then he recoiled. "Don't tell me you two are planning on coming again."
"Sorry to disappoint, but you’re on your own this time," Uotani said sarcastically. "There's only so much of the goo-goo eyes I can take."
He blushed. "Don't say it like that." But then he furrowed his brow. "And what does that have to do with why we're at a department store?"
"My, he really is quite dense, isn't he?" Hanajima said.
He twitched in annoyance which only increased as Uotani gave him a scornful look. "Seriously, Carrots? You need clothes to wear on a date."In which Kyo has a second date planned and Uo and Hana stage a fashion intervention.

Summary
His dad narrowed his eyes. “Hajime, what are you doing up there? You know you’re supposed to go down the slide, right?”
“Well, yeah, but going down is boring.” He shrugged. “I like it up here.” He’s always liked being in high places.
“You need to come down.”
He pouted. “Why?”
“Because I don’t want you to fall and hurt yourself.”
He rolled his eyes. He wasn't a baby. Not like his brother. “I won’t. I come up here all the time with my friends.”
“Stop arguing and come down,” his dad snapped. “You’re setting a bad example.” And then he gestured to Kazuya, who was looking up at him with wide, shining eyes.
He sighed. “Ugh, fine, geez.” And then he shifted where the first ledge was. “But I'm telling you,” he muttered, “I’m not a baby and I’ve never fallen from here.” Another step. “It’s not even dangerous and-” His foot slipped on the angle and...he was grasping at air.
And then he hit the ground with a crack, face planting in the grass.
And just as he was about to try and push himself up, he felt it. The white-hot searing pain through his arm.
And he started screaming.An unexpected fall and the terrors of being a parent sometimes.
