Behind This Smile
Yay! First Fruits Basket (Furuba) fanfic!
SLIGHT Yuki x Tohru
Start o.o
I'm Tohru Honda and I know a secret. No, it's not the one you may think. It's my very own secret. I shuffle my feet and clean my hands on a towel. I go up to my room, which is located at the Sohma residence. Yuki Sohma and Shigure Sohma have taken me in.
Though I may smile often, I hide a secret that only a few know of. My smile hides my real emotions. They are grief, pain, and hurt. At night, I sometimes lay in bed all night, crying softly. When I wake up in the morning, it's the first thing I think about. I sigh.
I hear Kyou-kun and Yuki-kun arguing again. I go into the room and break up the argument. They both give each other a final glare and storm away. I'm left to wallow in my own sadness. I shake off my feeling and put on my fake smile. A smile that's so convincing.
Yuki and Kyou are the only Sohma members who know of my feelings. They ran in on my while crying for my mother.
Mom.
The word lingers in my head for a while. A tear forms in my eye. I quickly wipe it away and smile contently.
"Honda-san?" a voice squeaked from behind me. I turn around. It was Yuki.
"Yes?" I answer in my usual voice. He frowned.
"Is… everything okay?" I nod. He shrugged.
"If you need anything, I'll just be in the kitchen, preparing dinner!" I happily said. Happily as in fake-happy. He just nodded. I sensed he knew how I was REALLY feeling. He dropped the subject.
Later, when I turned the rice cooker on, Yuki came to me again. He put a hand on my shoulder, spooking me.
"Are you sure you're okay?" he asked again. I sighed and nodded.
"Perfect," I smiled. He put his cheek on mine and sighed. A slight pink tinted my cheeks. I think he felt my cheeks growing hot.
"I do hope so, Miss Honda" (Oh, dub stuff xD) He lifted his cheek and left.
Behind this smile…
Lingers a secret that may never be revealed.

Yay! Comment xD
