A/N: don't kill me; this is my first fanfic ever. Constructive criticism is definitely needed. And there is probably a bunch of grammar and spelling mistakes; if you want to you can point them out. I just hope I get at least one review oo;; Anyways, thank you! And as I said before, this is NOT, I repeat, NOT yaoi. I don't think it's going to be romance at all. Sorry!
Disclaimer: If I owned this it wouldn't be a manga or anime. I do NOT own Fruits Basket.
Chapter 1:
Sunlight streamed through the window, hitting a sleeping teen in his bed. He shifted slightly and slowly opened an eye… and then the other. What he saw made him jump out of bed with his black hair flying, clamber into his school uniform, and hurry down the stairs. Yuki Sohma has left the room! A digital clock blinked the time: 7:30am. Yuki had overslept.
Yuki could hear the clatter of bowls on the kitchen table and sped up. He slowed as he neared the kitchen. Shigure sat reading the newspaper, reading glasses slipping off the end of his nose.
"Good morning, Yuki-san," piped Tohru.
"Good morning," replied Yuki. He started to eat as Shigure exclaimed, "Ooo! Just lovely, my little flower! Wonderful! I would love to--" Bonk! Shigure examined his new extra head on his already large head... ouch.
Then Yuki noticed that something was different. Something was missing. There wasn't the normal two bumps on Shigure's head... nor the normal loud voices... Somthing was definitely missing. And then it dawned on him. Where was that baka neko?
As if they all had thought the same exact thing at the same exact time, all three asked, "Where's Kyo?" (with the exception of Yuki who voice, "Where's the neko?"). Tohru looked around the room, spinning until she felt dizzy. Shigure looked contemplative then spoke:
"Maybe he found a girl and stole away in the night. Oh, beautiful, teen love! See how it blossoms! How I would give to be him!"
"Eek! What if he's lost or, even worse, hurt?" Tohru wrung her hands in worry.
"He can take care of himself," humphed Yuki.
This didn't help at all. Tohru was on the verge of tears, but Shigure said, "No, no. Don't worry. I'll look for him. He can't be far. Yes, Shigure will make everything better! You guys should leave for school or else you'll be late and we wouldn't want 'the prince' to have a tardy, now would we!"
"Oh, no! Yuki let's go!"
"Yes. That baka is fine," but why did he have a nagging feeling at the back of his mind, like he wasn't noticing something. Something… important. Oh, whatever. He had to get to school and so Yuki pushed the thought away.
When Yuki and Tohru were out the door and heading for school, Shigure sighed. He dropped his façade, concern written all over his face. "I better make some phone calls…"
A/N: So there it is! Heheh. Well, I hope it was okay. It's kinda short, dontcha think? But the next chappie will be longer, I promise. Please, please review! Thank you very much!
