Ryoko Sohma

Age: 15

Born in the year of the Fox (I know there's no fox, but there are no more animals to choose from...)

Dark orange hair (Almost red) with white ends on the bangs only.

"Hello?" Hatori said in his usual monotone.

"Hari?" a familiar voice said on the other line.

"Ryoko, where are you? You were suppose to be here at the main house by now."

"I know..."

"Then why aren't you here? Did you miss the plane? It's going to rain soon. Do you want me to pick you up?" He sound too concerned...

"No, I can walk, if I can ever get out of the airport."

"What do you mean?"

"There's a large group of guys by the entrance. If I want to get through, I'll have to squeeze through them."

"We can't risk that… I'll be right there."

"I told you, I'll be fine. I just have to wait a little longer."

"You're not walking here; I told you it's going to start raining soon." Hatori said before saying good-bye and hanging up.

"Who was that? Was it Ryoko? Is she okay!" asked Momiji coming in.

"Momiji, go back to bed, it's late."

"But I'm worried."

"She'll be fine."

"But where is she? I'll go find her! Haru already left to get her!"

"Hatsuharu?"

"Right after you said that Ryoko was stuck at the airport."

"Why do they have to block my only exit? I'm getting tired..." Ryoko slumped back into a chair and waited.

"Excuse me…" She turned around and saw a guy about her age with black hair just staring at her with emotionless eyes. "Uh, sorry. Do-" he was cut off by another boy.

"Hey, Kaname!" another guy came over looking more cheerful then the first one. "So that's where you went. To flirt with girls."

"Huh?"

"It's not like that. Please excuse my friend Naoya here." Kaname said still sounding dull.

"Hey there. Naoya Itsuki." he said shaking her hand. "And this guy here is Kaname Kusakabe. Hey, you're pretty- I love those eyes- and the hair... reminds me of a fox." Ryoko tensed up a bit.

"Ryu." said a familiar voice.

"Haru?"

"Ah, she's taken." said Naoya hanging his head.

"What are you doing here?" She asked.

"I heard you were stuck here..."

"Aww, so you came all the way over here to be stuck with me?"

"I can get you through, no sweat. Plus it's late. I'll walk you home." he said giving Ryoko his white trench coat. I love that coat!

"Well, I guess this is good-bye Foxy." Naoya said leaving with Kaname who didn't say anything but he waved.

"Foxy?" Haru said looking at Ryoko. She just shrugged.

"Damn, it's raining..." Ryoko said looking up at the gray sky.

"So how long do you get to stay this time? You come and go so often." Haru asked.

"I actually was planning to stay, with Kira." Kira was Ryoko's sister.

"Really?" Haru said sounding surprised.

"Yeah. I told Mika I quit the whole modeling crap. I hate being away for so long."

"Everyone will be happy to hear that..." he smiled still looking towards the ground. Their hands kept hitting each other's as they walked.

"So how's Rin?"

"Huh? Oh, she's... she just got out of the hospital."

"That's great... Kyo told me you went black out of now where at your school one day. What happened?"

"I went berserk because... I got dumped... I know it's not a good reason but-"

"Who were you going out with?"

"I though it would work out because we were both cursed by the zodiac- and we tried to keep it secret, but Akito somehow found out... and he hurt her."

"So that's what Rin was blaming me for..."

"Huh? What did she say?"

"Nothing."

"Tell me. Why are you hiding it? Rin said you were the one who told Akito, didn't she?"

"Are you guessing this stuff?"

"I know you didn't tell Akito. You'd never do that..."

"Are you okay Haru?"

"Yeah... I'm not giving up on her yet. I don't think Rin realizes... just how much I like her. I'm doing my best to show her- just short of doing anything illegal." Haru said sitting back up.

"Well, good luck then." Ryoko said with a smile.

"Wow. That feels much better to get it all out."

"Yeah, anytime..."

"Now it's your turn."

"What? Uh, what do you mean, heh, heh..."

"I know there's something on your mind too. Don't deny it."

"I left the fridge door open- again! And I left my soda can in the freezer- again! So it's like gonna explode soon... And-"

"No, really, what's wrong?"

"I-"

"Haru!" Momiji called running over.

"I guess we can postpone the confession booth for now." Haru joked giving her a smile.

"Finally, schools' over and I can get my soda out of the freezer and close the fridge door... Because I left it in there again..." Ryoko said to herself walking home.

"There you are." Haru said walking beside her. "Now what were you about to say before Momiji came into the picture?"

"I don't remember..."

"Wanna go for a walk? Maybe you'll remember." he asked. "So, really, what were you going to say? I'm curious." he said stopping in front of her.

Hey, so you can pick if Haru and Ryoko get together or if you want Rin with Haru or you can even pick whom you want Ryoko to end up with! Just review!
