This is my first yaoi fic for a long time. In case you hadn't guessed, it's IsuzuxTohru, and who knows who Haru will end up with? I have ideas...anyway, this might go a little slowly. But i'm trying! Read&Review : Oh, and i don't own fruits basket. But i wish i did.

------------------------------------------------------------------

'Haru…don't.'
'I thought you liked this?'
Haru leant back on one elbow and ran one hand through his hair, looking down at me with soft eyes. I looked back up at him and covered my chest with my arms. He frowned.
'What's wrong with you today? You're so twitchy…'
He put one finger under my chin and tilted my face up towards his.
'Rin…'
I turned away and started tying the laces on the top of my shirt together. I could feel his stare boring into the back of my head, and then I felt his hand winding around a lock of my hair, gradually pulling my head back, further and further, until I could just see his eyes.
'Haru, that hurts.'
He didn't let go.
'Haru!'
'Why are you acting like this? We got back together because you accepted. I don't care about getting hurt, Rin! As long as I'm with you, I'm happy. I love you!'
I prised his hand away from the lock of hair and shook it free, forcing a smile onto my face.
'You know…it's just…that time, right now.'
'Ohhh.'
His eyes twinkled and he leant forward, resting his head on my shoulder. I could feel his breath on my collarbones, feeling the pressure of his lips as he kissed my neck oh-so-gently. Usually this would have sent shivers down my spine and back up again. But now, it didn't feel so good. I stood up, away from the bed, away from his body, away from him. He kept hold of my hand and held it to his mouth, looking into my eyes. 'I love you, okay? I'll see you later…do you want me to walk you back?
'I'll be okay. You don't need to worry so much.'
He let go and gave a smile, blowing me a kiss.
'I love you.'
I took a deep breath.
'I love you too.'

The rain had doubled since the morning. It was now a storm, the thunder growling so deep you could feel it in the pit of your stomach, lightning rippling through the sky, rainwater pouring down the back of my neck, my face, soaking my hair through in an instant, the thin material of my dress clinging to my hips and my thighs. I wiped my face, raindrops flying. The wind howled and whipped my hair across my face, stinging. I tried to scrape it away but it seemed to be glued to my skin. Not for the first time, I wished my hair was shorter. Maybe in a bob of some kind. I sighed. I hated doing this to Haru. Lying to him, pretending, always pretending. Having to keep a smile on my face all the time. I still loved him, just not in that way. I'd been pulling away when he kissed me, stopping him when he kissed past my collarbone. I couldn't do this anymore! I never wanted to feel this way. I always thought Haru would be mine, forever. I'd never find anyone else like him. But I did. Tohru. It started off like a gentle obsession. Everytime I saw her I wanted to hold her still and look at her. Just to see what she really looked like, under the smile. And then it got more serious. I wanted to hold her. I wanted to talk to her, to really talk to her, to get to know what she was like, and then one day I realised that this wasn't a mere curiousity. I couldn't figure out what it was. Crush was too childish a word, it sugar-coated my feelings and wrapped them with a big pink bow. But it wasn't love. Not yet, at any rate. I closed my eyes leant against the wall, shivering. All these feelings. I never wanted this. I never wanted this!

'Isuzu…!'
What?
'Isuzu..!'
Louder, this time. Tell me I'm not hearing voices…
'Isuzu!'
I spun around on my heel.
'What?!'
And then I saw her.

'Isuzu!'
She waved madly in my direction, swaying precariously on one foot. I stifled a smile. She looked ridiculous, standing there, waving her arms around, being dragged by her umbrella, soaked to the skin. Her hair was tied back into a plait, whipping round her face like a long brown ribbon. She shook her head from side to side checking the road for any cars, then half-stumbled half-ran towards me. She was about to step up onto the pavement when she tripped up, and hurtled into me. For such a small girl, she was surprisingly heavy, and I felt myself being thrown backwards against the wall and then the weight of Tohru falling down on top of me. I landed flat on my back on the wet pavement, Tohru over me, trying to heave herself back up on one elbow. Her face was half-buried in my neck and I froze as she collapsed back on my body. The umbrella was spinning down the road, turning inside out and back again, much like my heart which seemed to have taken on a life of its own and was flipping around like crazy inside my chest. She hauled herself up and sat with her legs on either side of my hips, covering her eyes with her hands.
'I'm so sorry! I really am! I really, really, didn't mean to do that, but I'm so clumsy and it was raining and you know what I'm like and have I hurt you?!'
She stopped her ranting and looked down at me with her big blue eyes that were rapidly filling up with hot, salty tears.
'I'm not hurt.'
'But your arm…'
I looked down at my arm and took a gasp; the white of my skin was interrupted by a long, red scrape with dirt and glass fragments embedded into it like semi-precious stones in velvet. I looked up and I felt the pressure on my body give, and then I felt the softness of her hand holding mine.
'Rin…I'll take you to Shigure's. We'll get Hatori to do something.'
Suddenly my body ached. My head thumped, my arm stung, everything hurt.
'Ohh.'
'Rin, I need to get you home. Rin!'
When did she start calling me Rin? I feel sick.
'Rin? Please, Rin, please…'
And Tohru's face faded into white.

I woke up in a strange bed. My head ached and my throat was dry. I could feel something heavy on my arm, but I wasn't sure what it was. I could smell vanilla, strawberries…antiseptic? I opened my eyes. Everything was fuzzy, like a piece of frosty plastic had been put over the top. The images swam and I focused on four blue objects in front of me. Wait a second…two blue objects. I squinted and the focus came back, and I found myself staring into Tohru's eyes. She opened her mouth, a perfect 'O' shape, and fluttered her hands around her face like small white butterflies. I smiled.
'Hatori bandaged you up…you had to have an injection, um, you might feel a bit sleepy he said so…'
She trailed off as she noticed me laughing.
'What is it? Rin…do you feel alright?'
'I'm fine, it's just-'
And then the warmth of someone else above me, and the feel of a strand of hair brushing my face as they leant down to kiss the top of my head.
'Rin! I was so worried...are you hurt at all? Of course you're hurt. Are you okay?'
Haru.

I'm sorry for it being so short. And confusing. But hopefully it'll get better soon - Review, thankyou!
