It's my first Fruits Basket FanFiction so please please please be nice to me! I haven't finished Fruits Basket yet so if I get anything wrong please tell me!
Your POV
"Mi-chan! Time for breakfast!" your aunt yelled from the foot of the stairs.
You groaned and turned over to look at your alarm clock. Why hadn't it set off? Two seconds later the annoying buzz of the alarm went off. That's why, you thought. Annoyed, you pushed the off button three times before the alarm finally gave in and listened to you. Groaning, you pulled your blanket over your head. You didn't want to go to school today.
"Yumi-chan?" There was a gentle knock at the door.
"Come in," you said from under your blankets.
"We gotta go to school now hurry up," the person came in and sat down on the edge of your bed. You felt the corners of the bed sag down a little.
"I don't want to," you groaned, "not after what happened a few days ago."
"Get up!" the speaker pulled your blankets off from over your head.
"Hey!" you glared at the silver haired boy who was now holding your blankets.
"Get up," he repeated, "You aunt called you ages ago."
He was already in his school uniform, but his tie was draped loosely around his neck.
"Fine," you gave in. There was no point in arguing with him. You had learned that the hard way.
"When you're done can you help me tie my tie?" he threw your blanket back on your bed.
"Fine," you repeated climbing slowly off your bed. Every muscle in your body was tense and screaming at you to stop and climb back on the bed. You ignored it all and gingerly stepped onto the floor. You carefully took a step and winced. Geez, that hurt a lot. Aware that he was watching you, you slowly took another step forward and nearly crashed down onto the ground. He had caught you just in time.
"You have to be more careful," he looked at you with worried eyes.
"Yeah," you replied sarcastically, "like I can control half of what happened to me."
A hurt look crossed his face. "I'm sorry."
You looked up at his in surprise, "What?"
"Sorry," he looked away.
You blinked furiously. He hardly ever said sorry and only ever did when that happened to her. "Hey," you said softly, "It's ok."
He turned his head and looked back at you.
"Can you help me put my bed away?" you asked wearily.
"Oh yeah, sure," he carried you bridal style to a wall where you were able to prop yourself up.
After he put your bed away, he looked back at you, "Anything else madam?"
"I'm fine," you replied.
"Hurry up or we're gonna be late for school okay?"
"Okay," you smiled happily.
He smiled at you briefly and left the room, closing the door behind him.
"I'll be fine for now… Tomoko-kun."
Tomoko's POV
Tomoko shook his head at the door. "You think I don't know huh?" he said to no one in particular.
"Tomoko-san?" Yumi's aunt asked.
"Yes?" Tomoko answered.
"Is Mi-chan awake?"
"Yes."
"That's good. Would you like to have breakfast now?"
"I'll have it later thanks."
"Okay then."
The door slid open again and Yumi stood there, leaning on the door for support.
Tomoko smiled at her. She looked cute in her new school uniform.
"I don't like this uniform," Yumi complained.
"I don't either. I have to actually tie this tie. Not just slip it over my head." Tomoko shook his head.
"Here I'll help you," Yumi balanced herself before reaching for his tie.
Your POV
Carefully, you tied Tomoko's school tie up while trying your best not to let your legs fail you. "You know, you should learn how to tie your tie yourself," you told Tomoko.
"I know," he replied rolling his eyes at you.
"Come on," you finished tying his tie and headed for the stairs under Tomoko's watchful eye. It wasn't that hard to walk anymore, but you only had a limited amount of time before you had to repeat this all over again.
And... there it is. I hope it's okay.
Note: Yumi's aunt called her Mi-chan while Tomoko calls her Yumi-chan. Mi-chan is a nickname that is used between Yumi and her aunt. Nicknames are usually only used for girls and usually only used by girls when they talk to each other. The girls must be very close to be able to call them this.
