Disclaimer: No I don't own fruits basket, I just spazz about it daily.

Manachans: ok people! I'm writing my first ever fanfic!

Kyo: but why the heck did you have to write it about us? I mean why write about that damn rat anyhow?

Yuki: well at least I don't hurt the author's feelings.

Kyo: -Grumble- Why don't you write about Inuyasha for a while! (Yes he is also a spazz item for me)

Manachans: -cries- you're never this mean to Tohru!

-Enter- Shigure: that's because he has a thing for her!

Manachans: what!

Kyo: SHUTTUP SHIGURE!

Shigure: tee hee...

Manachans: I kinda knew a while ago… but it's cool to see Kyo freak out…ah well, on to the story!

Chapter one:

Announcements

"Three days left." Those words kept repeating in Kyo's head as the end of the school day neared.

Suddenly the bell rang and knocked Kyo out of his daze. Slowly he got up and headed for the door when suddenly Tohru popped up and said cheerily, "Only three days left of the school year Kyo! Are you excited?"

"NO." he plainly stated.

Tohru Suddenly remembered what the end of the year meant for Kyo. He'd have to go into confinement for the rest of his life. "Oh, okay." She sighed with a sad look on her face.

As they walked down the hallway Kyo began to wonder why Yuki hadn't shown up yet. 'Not like I care anyway' he thought hurriedly.

When Yuki did show up, Tohru was becoming more and more depressed. She didn't want anybody to be locked up especially not Kyo. She did care for the Sohma family and considered them her own. She just wanted them to be happy. No one deserved that life of solitude. She wanted to meddle; she wanted to break the curse.

"Is something wrong Miss Honda?" asked Yuki who had recently noticed her somber expression.

"Yeah, you look sick or somethin. You okay Tohru?" Kyo asked with a worried look.

"Ehhh? Oh n-no! I'm fine, really!" She managed to stutter.

"If you say so." Kyo shrugged. 'She still looks worried' he thought unconvinced as they trudged home.

Upon opening the door Momiji burst through the door shouting, "TOHRU! TOHRU!" and collides with Tohru then 'POOF!' and there was a rabbit in her arms.

"You stupid, damn, happy rabbit!" Kyo yelled, "What if someone saw you!"

"Yes Momiji, you should be more careful," Yuki said quietly, "I actually agree with the stupid cat on this one."

"WHO YOU CALL'N STUPID, PUNK?" Kyo shouted ready to fight.

"Chill orange top," Uo-chan said from the doorway, "we didn't see anything. Why were you fighting about it anyway?"

"Yes, it does seem strange," Said Hana-chan appearing behind Kyo, "but we're just here to visit Tohru."

"How the heck did you get there?" said a startled Kyo, "Quit freak'n me out! Jeez…"

After things settled down Tohru suggested that they go inside and have a snack. Instead they found the rest of the Sohma family in the living room, everyone except Rin, Kureno, and Akito of course.

"What the hell are you guys doing here?" asked an extremely angry Kyo.

They all simultaneously shouted, "ASK SHIGURE!" They obviously had no idea what they were doing there in the first place.

"It's not my fault!" cried Shigure, "It was for official business!" They all just gave him that evil stare. "As you know…" he began again.

"Shut up old man! I figured it out already." Hiro exclaimed already bored by the whole topic.

"Just let him speak so we can leave." Hatori said quietly.

"I'm hungry." observed Haru, "let's eat before we talk."

"I agree whole heartedly Haru!" exclaimed Ayame who was at the moment prancing over to Tohru, "yes! Make us a lovely dinner my little flower!"

At that moment Uo had heard enough. "SHUTTUP!" she shouted. Surprisingly everyone got quiet. "We'll eat and then talk! Okay?"

Everyone nodded, but the silence was so eerie that Tohru felt the hairs on the back of her neck rise. "Uhmm… I'll… I'll start dinner." She managed to stutter before dashing to the kitchen.

"I wanna help! I wanna help!" Momiji shouted, tugging on Yuki and Kyo. "Come on! Let's go help Tohru!"

"No way." Kyo stated before turning to go to his room, "I don't cook."

"Please help her Kyo!" pleaded Kagura, "If you don't I'll just have to make you help!" and with sudden fury, grabs him by the scruff of his neck and plows him through the paper kitchen door and into Tohru. 'POOF!'

"Whoops! Sorry Tohru." She called from the living room.

"What happened?" asked Yuki upon entering the kitchen. "Oh you stupid cat! See what you did?" He held up a pair of socks covered with freshly cooked rice. "You ruined Tohru's home cooked meal! I apologize for his inconsiderate acts Tohru."

"Oh! No… Please… It was just an accident. I'll just make something else!" She managed to say with renewed vigor. Still she was surprised that Kyo didn't have a nasty retort to such an insult. 'I just hope that he's okay.' She thought to herself, 'now, what should I make for dinner?'

Meanwhile in Kyo's room, Kyo was punching the wall, which was already full of dents, and saying how stupid he was. "I'm such an idiot!" he cried. 3 days left. The pressure was almost too much to bear! 'I don't want to leave!' he thought desperately, 'I want to stay here with Tohru.' He really loved Tohru a lot, but wouldn't admit it to himself. He wanted to tell her how much he cared for her, but couldn't bring himself to do it. 'I'm just so… so… stupid!'

Suddenly the door to Kyo's room opened showing Tohru standing there with a smile on her face. "Kyo! Dinner's ready!"

'Well,' he thought sullenly, 'maybe she already knows. I'll have to wait for the right moment though

Downstairs everyone had already started eating and chatting quietly. Uo and Hana were serving more rice and teriyaki chicken with fried vegetables and sushi. As soon as Kyo sat down, Shigure stood up and announced, "We are chaperoning and sponsoring the end of the year school dance!"
