This....this is my FAVE chapter. I remember it so well, because of the last lines. The one about him being under Kaoru's umbrella. Just the feelings it invoked and how I thought it was a metaphor for the moment.

And as much as an asshole he is, I love Kyo in this because he is perceptive. He knows something is wrong, and Toshiya just can't fight that.

But in Toshiya's case, his feelings are starting to show, the fact that he asks in the first place. And I love that Kaoru is getting under his skin.

Love,love,love...
