AN: Well here's the sequel to A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes! I wasn't sure for a while if I was gonna make a sequel but when I wrote that ending, I just knew I had to create another one cause we need some more Samii Ha'ri fluff and we can't have that if they're broken up! For the fans who love Shigure, here's a chapter for you.


"Samii!! Wake up, lazy bones!" Shigure came running into my room and jumped on me.

I just rolled over and said, "Go away!"

"Come on! I'm bored! The kids are at school and I need someone to annoy," Shigure whined, pulling at my covers.

"You're doing a good job of it right now! Now go away and let me sleep!" I yanked the covers from his hands and buried myself into the bed. I wasn't really that tired, I just wanted to bug Shigure. Obviously, it was working.

"Samiiiii! Please get up!" Finally he yanked all of my covers off at once.

I curled into a ball, cuddling with my pillow and said, "You suck."

"Up and at 'em! It's a new day," he said, opening the blinds on my window.

"You suck twice as much now," I said, covering my eyes to protect them from the blinding sun.

"Get up, sleeping beauty!" he insisted.

"I'm not a beauty," I mumbled, finally standing up, my night shirt hanging off one shoulder because it's so big.

"You look so... not put-together," he said, looking at me.

"Thanks, you look wonderful yourself now go away," I said, stomping past him and down the stairs.

"Don't take it personally!" he said, coming up behind me.

"How can I not take that personally Shigure?" I asked, turning to him with a bewildered look.

"I dunno, I was just trying to make you feel better," he said, shrugging.

"Well, you failed, alright?" I said, proceeding to the kitchen to eat some cereal.

Shigure followed me but when I poured the cereal and headed for the fridge, he said, "There's no milk."

I turned to him and said, frustrated, "Why didn't you tell me that before I poured my cereal? Here I was, getting all excited and stoked for cereal and you just shoot it down. You know what? I'm going to get dressed and go to the store and get milk. Just so I can have cereal."

"Wow, that's a lot for milk," he said, surprised.

"It's not just for the milk. It's for the cereal too," I said, heading back upstairs.

"Where are you going? The store isn't upstairs, you know," he yelled up the stairs.

"Are you stupid? I'm changing!" I yelled back at him as I closed my door then locked it.

"You're not going in your pajamas?" he asked right outside my door.

"Of course not!" I said, rolling my eyes.

"Can I come with you to the store?" he asked.

"I'm not going to stop you. Didn't I once tell you that if you stay cooped up in this house all the time, you're gonna get fat?" I asked as I slid into the dress.

"I recall you saying that you would get fat if you stayed here all the time like me. I have a very high metabolism and therefore don't have to worry about it," he retorted.

I stepped out and twirled, showing off the pale blue sun dress with blue sandals and said, "What do you think?"

"You look lovely as always," he said, offering his arm, which I hooked my arm through and we proceeded down the stairs and out the door, making sure to lock it.

At the grocery store, we fought over what kind of milk we should get, 2% reduced or skim. I argued for the 2% but he wanted skim. Eventually we just got both. While waiting in line, Hatori walked into the store and spotted us. I tried to hide in Shigure's coat but to no avail.

"Hi, Ha'ri!" Shigure yelled then looked down at me, "What are you doing Samii?"

"I'm hiding idiot," I said but, realized Ha'ri was right next to us and dropped Shigure's coat and said politely, "Hello Hatori."

Ha'ri looked at me and said, "Hello Samii. How have you been?"

"Grand," I said sarcastically. Awkward silence...

"Actually, Samii and I were about to go on a date. I figured since you had Shiho, you didn't mind right?" Shigure asked, putting an arm around me and pulling me right up to his side.

"What? Is this true?" Ha'ri asked, turning to me.

I studied the expression on his face and decided to go along with it, "Yeah. We had to pick up some milk but I was going to take him down to that beach we went to, remember? He said he wanted to see it. I didn't think you'd mind since you have Shiho."

"No, I don't mind at all," Ha'ri said, gritting his teeth. You could tell he was holding himself back from saying something.

"Well, we'll see you later, Hatori," I said, putting my arm around Shigure's waist, I looked up at him and said, "Come on, 'Gure. I want to get there in time for lunch so we can have our picnic. Bye Hatori."

We paid for our milk and headed down the road. Shigure turned to me and said, "I think you overdid it there in the end."

"Whatever, who cares?" I said, handing the bags to Shigure, making him carry them.

"So, do you really wanna have a picnic on a beach?" Shigure asked with a smile.

"He might check in so maybe we should. Where do you wanna buy takeout from?" I asked, turning to him.

"You're not gonna cook something?" he asked, looking at me with surprise.

I stopped and gave him a look then said, "I'm not my sister, Shigure. I can't cook. I'm like Yuki."

"Ooo, that bad huh?" he asked.

"I can only make desserts. I will make us some cake for dessert, kay?" I asked, continuing our walk. We turned down our little path and started toward the house.

"Sounds delicious," he said.

We got home and I started making the cake. When I'd put it in the oven and Shigure had called the takeout and the main house for a car, we sat down in the living room. I turned to him and said, "So what made you do that? Say that to Ha'ri I mean."

"You just seemed so scared to see him. I figured you wanted him to feel bad too and I just happen to know all about Ha'ri's weak spots. You happen to be one of them. He might be too good of a guy to leave Shiho but he definitely still has feelings for you and doesn't want anyone else to have you," he explained.

"Hm... wanna do it more?" I asked.

"Samii Honda... are you asking me to be your boyfriend?" Shigure asked, pretending to be shocked.

"Well, I'm bored and you're willing right?" I said, smirking and leaning towards him, "So, what do you say? Wanna be my boyfriend?"

"Well, let's see... what does that entail?" he asked.

"We'll work out details later," I said, standing up and heading into the kitchen. I checked the cake but it wasn't ready. When I stood up, Shigure was right behind me. I turned around as he put his hands on either side of me on the stove.

"Tell me the details now," he said.

"Well..." I couldn't think with him leaning over me like that. It was very disorienting.

"Come on... what's the matter? Cat got your tongue?" he teased.

"You're a butthead," I pushed him away and duck under his arm then tried to hide my blush by messing with some dishes.

"You're still really easy to irritate, I see," he laughed.

"Don't make fun of me," I said, glaring at him over my shoulder.

"But it's just so easy," he said, laughing.

"You know, I once heard you described as a ripple in the water," I remarked.

"She's refined that analogy since then," he said.

"Really? It's such a good one though," I responded, drying my hands after the dishes.

"She said I'm a jellyfish on a ripple now," he laughed.

"So you're transparent? You have no brain?" I asked.

"I think it has to do with the stings but you could say those too I guess," he said with another laugh.

"You don't get frustrated, do you?" I asked him, astounded.

"Not really," he responded.

"I don't really understand that by the way. I get mad way too easily and I don't see how you don't," I responded.

"I'm just laid back, I guess," he said, leaning against the counter next to me and smiling.

"No kidding. Let me check that cake," I said, opening the oven.

He looked in next to me and said, "Is it done?"

I pulled it out, stuck a toothpick in it and when I pulled it out, it didn't have any cake on it so I turned to him and said happily, "It's done! Let it sit for a little bit so it can cool down."

"So, what do you want to drink down there?" he asked.

"I dunno... got anything good?" I asked.

"I'm sure there's some sake somewhere," he replied then wandered into his room to find some.

As I wandered around the kitchen, waiting for the cake, I searched for some glasses to pour the sake into that would be okay to take to the beach. I found some champagne flutes and figured that'd be okay. I set them on the counter next to the cake.

"Success!" Shigure shouted then walked into the room triumphantly holding a bottle up in the air.

"Nice work," I said, laughing.

There was a knock on the door and when I went to answer it, it was the takeout he had ordered. He paid for it, we put it and the cake into a picnic basket along with the flutes then headed out. He had called the main house for a car and when we got out to the road, it was waiting for us.

We got in and I gave him directions to the specific beach. When we got there, there were still some people so we went and sat on the dock that Ha'ri and I had sat on. We started to eat the food.

"I haven't eaten takeout in forever. It really pales in comparison to Tohru's food," Shigure commented.

"Yeah, she's amazing," I said with a smile.

"So do you really approve of Kyo and Tohru's relationship?" Shigure asked.

"Yeah. I've been waiting for them to get together for a long time," I said with a laugh, "I can't wait until she starts having kids. They're going to be so cute!"

"Getting ahead of yourself there, don't you think?" he asked, taking another bite and pouring some sake into our glasses.

"Nah. I'm sure it'll happen. Hey, help me out here, is that a Sohma car? It's been bugging me for a long time. The black one over there by the silver van," I said, gesturing with my chin towards the black car.

He glanced over his shoulder then said, "Oh yeah. That's probably Ha'ri."

"I told he'd come check, didn't I?" I said with a smile.

"Yeah, is he still there?" he asked.

"Oh yeah. He's gotten out of the car and he's sneaking closer. Want to piss him off?" I asked.

"Sure, what do you have in mind?" he asked.

I leaned over and planted one on him. He grabbed my waist and the back of my head then pulled me toward him. I saw Ha'ri stomp onto the dock. He came over and ripped Shigure off of me.

"Don't do that to her!" he said angrily.

"What's up with you?" I asked

"Are you really doing this? This is Shigure we're talking about here. You've never liked him!" Hatori said, gesturing wildly.

"Hatori, I've moved on, okay? You've already crushed my heart, now let me try to glue it back together alright? You have Shiho, go home to her," I said, standing up and getting in his face.

"I really did?" he asked quietly.

"You broke it to pieces. I told you I loved you and all you said was that you were sorry. Now, Hatori, I need you to leave now," I said, staring into those eyes that I love so much.

Those eyes filled with grief then Ha'ri turned and left. I stared after him until he got in the car and left then I kneeled down next to Shigure and sighed.

"Again, I think you overdid it there in the end," he responded.

"Yeah I think so too," I mumbled then looked at him, "Maybe we should stop."

"I think we had a breakthrough here today. He realized what he's missing out on. I bet you in a week, maybe two, he'll come crawling back," Shigure said, studying his nails, "But it won't work unless he keeps getting jealous."

"Are you just trying to get me to kiss you more?" I asked.

"Maybe," he responded.

"And you're saying that Ha'ri will come back to me?" I asked unsure.

"Oh yeah. Definitely," he said, nodding.

I picked up my glasses and toasted him, "To the beginning of a beautiful relationship."
