Love? When Will It Be My Turn?
Chapter 1
'You see mama doesn't exactly know who I am.' The thought hit Momiji like a slap on the face. 'So you won't have any regret then?' Hatori asked. 'The only regret I have is that thing coming out of my body.' Momiji's mother said. Momiji lay on his bed and the thoughts kept racing through his mind each one stopping only to cause more pain then he could bare. Momiji soon felt hot tears slide down his face one by one. He stared at the picture of his mother. Hatori had said that either his mother would reject him or would be over protected. She rejected and it hurt so bad to see his mother in pain, she couldn't eat or sleep or even look at Momiji. 'Momiji your mother is in so much pain she needs to forget you understand that right? You want mama to be happy and healthy again don't you?' Momiji's father asked. 'Yes' Momiji answered. 'I knew you would.' His father said. "Mother…." Momiji said the words. "Momiji did you say something?" Hatori asked looking over a stack of papers that had somehow built there way to the top of his desk. "Nothing." Momiji said. "Are you sure?" Hatori asked. "Yeah I'm fine." Momiji replied rolling over on his side so Ha'ri wouldn't see him cry.
"Momiji why are you crying?" Hatori asked. Momiji got up and began to run out of the house he didn't know were he was going he just knew some were was better than anything right now. Hatori ran and picked up the phone just as Momiji was out of sight from the Soma estate. "Shigure! Its Hatori, Momiji ran away!" Hatori shouted into the phone. "Ha'ri what did you do now?" Ayame asked. "Where's Shigure?!" Hatori commanded. "He's in his study writing he asked me to answer the phone." Ayame said. "This is important tell Shigure that Momiji ran away I'm going to try and catch him!" Hatori replied slamming the phone down and running after Momiji. 'He couldn't have gotten to far.' Hatori thought to himself as he ran out of the Soma estate. "The Dragon Bar?" Momiji asked himself stepping in the small bar. The bartender looked up from washing his glass cup and stared at Momiji. The bartender was not a small man he had a big build and looked like the kinda guy Momiji usually stayed away from.
The bartender simply smiled and filled the cup he was done cleaning and handed it to Momiji. "Its on the house." The bartender said. Momiji didn't care if this was beer he gulped it down no matter how bad it tasted! After a couple more cups Momiji was as drunk as Shigure had gotten that one time at the New Years party. The door opened and in rushed three guys! Hatori, Ayame and who could forget poor out of breath Shigure. "There he is I told you we should have came here a long time ago but no! You said 'No he couldn't be that stupid to do that!' But.." Hatori cut off Shigure. "Ok we get the point you were right now shut up already!" Hatori shouted. "You got in trouble." Ayame sang. "Hey guyssh wash up?" A drunken Momiji asked. Momiji stumbled to and fro before finally collapsing all together. Hatori was the first to react he ran over and picked him up and carried him all the way home. "Momiji!" Tohru shouted rushing over to the unconscious Momiji. "What happened?" Kyo asked rubbing his tired eyes as he made his way down the stairs. "Momiji got drunk." Even as Ayame said the words he couldn't believe it himself. Momiji was crazy but in a funny way he never thought once he would ever do this. Seeing him now on the floor sleeping just didn't seem right no matter what anyone said. Yuki was the last to get up he stumbled halfway down the stairs before finally (With Kyo's help) got down the stairs. "What happened here you guys look like someone just died." Yuki said before almost collapsing on Kyo's shoulder. "Momiji got drunk." Tohru said the next day trying to explain it to Haru. "What do you mean?!" Haru asked with rage. 'Oh no I think he's turning into black Haru.' Tohru thought to herself. "I have a headache." Momiji whined.
"That's your fault." Hatori said giving Momiji a banana instead of his usual lollipop. "Why are you giving me a banana?" Momiji asked. "I read that banana's are also good for hangovers so eat." Hatori said. Momiji shrugged and did as he was told. Later that day Momiji went to school feeling a lot better than he had that day.
