Welcome to my new story: Please enjoy! (more comments at the end)
(Ayame, Hatori, Yuki, Tohru and Shigure pop in)
Yuki: Um, what are we doing here?
Miji-chan: Huh? Oh, I was getting lonely so I decided to talk to you guys
Shigure: Oh Miji-chan, thank you so much! (takes my hands and begins to waltz around the room grinning happily)
Hatori: (wacks Shigure with a rolled newspaper that suddenly appears in his hands) Stop it you idiot. You're making yourself look worse then you already are
Shigure: (rubs head while mock crying) Hari, I believe that that was totally unnecessary! How could you do that to me, me, your only, best friend!
Ayame: (rushes over to Shigure) don't worry Gure! I, your glowing jewel, will always be here for you!
Shigure: I knew I could always count on you Aya, my right hand!
Hatori: (quietly as not to upset Miji-chan) Who was the idiot who came up with this idea?
Yuki: (sighs and rests his chin on his palm) could you two act any gayer?
Ayame: (rushes over to Yuki) don't worry my dear brother! I am always at your side (grins manically (is that even a word, or did I just make it up?)) Even more so now that Miji-chan has done us the honor of writing a story in which we will always be together!
Miji-chan: Well… (bites lip)
Hatori: I can't believe you're doing this
Miji-chan: Hey! It was just an idea! Keep that pessimistic behavior up and I'll ask you to leave
Hatori: I don't believe you
Miji-chan: Well I'm the author and I'll do what I want!
Hatori: (smugly) Is that so?
Miji-chan: Yes it is! (I take a pad of paper out of my pocket and flip it open, while a pen appears in my hand, ((one more perk of being an author)) and write) Hatori… disappears…from the…story… (Hatori disappears)
Tohru: Did you really make him disappear?
Miji-chan: well, no, not exactly…
(Hatori's voice is heard close by, but muffled)
Hatori: Miji-chan let me out of here
Miji-chan: NO
Shigure: Aya, there-there's a ghost in the closet!
(Shigure and Ayame hug each other, shivering)
Hatori: Miji-chan… now
Miji-chan: No, I said no and I meant no. At least not until you apologize to me!
Hatori: (sighs)
(Miji-chan suddenly hears a loud, high-pitched buzzing in her ears)
Miji-chan: (clamps her hands over her ears) HATORI STOP IT!
Hatori: (silence)
(buzzing continues)
Miji-chan: All right! Fine, just stop it! (buzzing stops) (takes out notepad and quickly writes) Hatori…reappears
Hatori: (reappears next to Miji-chan and adjusts his coat) Thank you
Miji-chan: (grumbles)
Ayame: Well, now that that's over… the spotlight can once again be on me! Yuki! From this day on, we will restrengthen our brotherly bond! This story is just the beginning!
Yuki: Agh! (runs away from Ayame with him running and shouting endlessly behind him)
(Hatori, Tohru, and Shigure stares blankly after them)
Momiji: And after this short, but interesting delay, here is the story! Please enjoy
Kisa: And remember, sissy does not own Fruits Basket, although she really wishes she did because she loves us all very very much
Tohru: (runs over to Kisa and hugs her tightly) you're so cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute!
(Normal POV)
Yuki hung his head into his hands, blocking out his brothers endless chattering. He had been going on for the past ten minutes, ever since they had walked into this dreadful place.
The bright posters with enthusiastic themes, ever-bubbling water fountains, and colorful flowers everywhere, made the place overly too cheerful. That, along with his brothers endless chattering was becoming very overwhelming to Yuki.
Actually, he thought look back, he probably wouldn't be here except for Tohru who had been the one to come up with the whole idea of him and his brother going to get counseling. Certainly, if another member of his family had mentioned it, he would have beaten them up, but since it had been Tohru, he had easily given in, without a fight.
"Yuki? Yuki, are you listening to me? Come on my brother, I know that you could never ignore my heartwarming speeches!" Ayame declared loudly, placing a hand on his brothers' shoulder.
Yuki turned away, chin resting on his hand, "Just watch me," he muttered.
Ayame either ignored or didn't hear him because he continued, announcing loudly, "Remember Yuki, we are here to savor and strengthen our brotherly bond! Not only on behalf of our dear Tohru, but also on our bond as family."
"Just once I'd like to hang you from the roof." Yuki thought sighing. His brother had always been like this, but no matter how much he was around Ayame, he couldn't get used to it, ever.
His brother's rambling was thankfully cut short, by a women's voice saying, "Excuse me, are you two the Sohma brothers?"
Yuki glanced over at his brother who had gotten up out of his chair and was now prancing around the woman. "Unfortunately, yes. Would you be Miss Dalton?"
The woman nodded, watching Ayame out of the corner of her eye. "Yes I am. You are Yuki Sohma?" When Yuki nodded she pointed at Aya, "Then he is your older brother?"
Ayame stopped to stand next to her and grasped one of her hands. "You called mon amour?"
She tried to get her hand free. "No, not exactly. We should start the session now." She managed to get her hand free and then sat down heavily in the chair opposite the two brothers.
(Mrs. Dalton's POV)
I sat down in my chair, relieved to have gotten away from the older Sohma. How could anyone stand to be in the same room with him? Jeez was he handsome though, those golden eyes, and pure white hair? I absently wondered if he had a girlfriend. Yuki was also handsome; the family relationship between the two was clearly visible. Those purple eyes, even though she had never heard of anyone having purple eyes, maybe it was a Japan thing, mixed with his silver grey hair made him look like a prince out of a fairy tale.
Looking over at the two, I noticed that Ayame was still talking, not noticing that neither one of the other two people in the room were listening. Yuki, on the other hand, was trying to look not too annoyed, and failing. He seemed like he was used to his brothers odd personality.
"Well then, why don't we start?" I suggested, breaking off Ayame's chattering, who sat up in his chair and began to smile at me disarmingly, I shivered. "My name is Christine Dalton, and I'll be your counselor for as long as you decide to keep coming." I smiled, which caused Ayame to grin at me wickedly, but Yuki just gave me a distant look and then his eyes flicked away again. I decided to start with him, since he looked like he was lonely, plus I would do anything to stop Ayame from talking again, I was already starting to get a headache.
"Yuki?" He turned towards me and didn't look away, well, that was an improvement. "Why don't you tell me a little about yourself." When he looked surprised I quickly added, "This is a kind of 'getting-to-know-you' session."
He nodded. "Well, my name's Yuki Sohma, I'm 16 years old, I go to Furiban High School. Currently I'm living with two cousins, and a girl from school. He sighed and leaned back. "I can't think of anything else."
While he had been talking, I had written down what he had said on a notepad I kept handy. I looked over my notes and asked, "What are the names of the people you're living with."
Yuki looked surprised and then, with a glance at his brother, answered. "Shigure Sohma, Kyo Sohma and, Miss Tohru Honda."
I noticed curiously that while he had said the first two names with a tone of disgust, but Yuki's voice had gotten quieter and had almost said the girl's name, dare I say it, lovingly. I looked at him and then wrote down what I had observed on my notepad.
"So this Tohru Honda is not related to you?"
Yuki shook his head and said quietly, "No, Miss Honda is more of a family friend."
"Ah." I commented intelligently and jotted that down too. Then, filled with a sudden dread, I turned to Ayame who had been no doubtly watching me, and I said in a controlled tone, "All right Ayame, your turn to tell me a little about yourself."
Well, here's my new fic, I hope you all enjoy it! It's an idea I got after reading Yanikei's Split Personality, its really good! Read it if you haven't! Um, also, I'd be really really happy if you would read and review, this was kinda just on a whim, and, to put it bluntly, I have no idea where its going, so ideas or review would be helpful. Sry if it's a little long, but I couldn't think of any way to shorten it. And, sry to keep adding on, i apologize if I got the name of the school wrong, but I couldn't remember what it was, and the counselor's name might change, not sure.
Oh, 'nother thing too, I added the intro at the beginning just for fun, because I read stories with it at the beginning, and thought it would be fun to add. If you liked it, I'm glad and if you didn't, im sorry.
Well, that's all. I'm going to bed. Please read and review!
