Five People Kaho Never Fell in Love With (Kaho/various)
Title: Five People Kaho Never Fell in Love With
Length: 313 words
Prompt: see title
Pairing: 1. Touya/Kaho; 2. Eriol/Kaho; Yukito/Kaho; 4. Kaho/Sakura; 5. Kaho/Ruby Moon
Other: n/a
Excerpt: In the end, in the end again, he wasn't who she thought he was, a wry twist on a magician long dead; nor was he a child.
1. Touya
Because she couldn't say it, in the end, and that's half the reason she left him. She needed to. Firsts were firsts, sure, but firsts weren't always certain. She didn't know what love was. She knew connection.
2. Eriol
In the end, in the end again, he wasn't who she thought he was, a wry twist on a magician long dead; nor was he a child. He was something in-between and she didn't know how to love him, so she left.
3. Yukito
She could have loved him, and she hides that secret in her heart. He was quiet, attuned to the moon, understanding. They both knew Touya, and that was enough for hours of conversation. But she couldn't love him; he belonged to someone else.
4. Sakura
She saw the way that Sakura looked at her, and grinned grimly; Sakura didn't love her, she loved the magic, that magnetic pull that regular people didn't understand, the pull that causes people to meet and love and marry in a matter of weeks into a relationship doomed from the start (because even after marriage the pull doesn't stop, and they can't understand it). She was very careful not to fall in love with Sakura, and in the end, Sakura figured it out. Of course she would; Kaho allowed herself to be proud, to wear a teacher's heart, even as she knew this was nothing to do with her.
5. Ruby Moon
She wanted to look at Ruby like Eriol did, like a daughter/son/child who was sweet and mischievous and innocent. When she found that she couldn't, that Ruby's eyes were challenging to her (I know him best, and you are an interloper, whom maybe I can love in time, but be careful is what Kaho thinks that Ruby means, and she can't stand that gaze), she doesn't look at Ruby anymore at all.
