I silently walked through the empty halls of my high school. It was the first day of my last year here. Well, in actuality it wasn't empty at all. It was packed with both delighted and miserable students. Some were overjoyed to see their friends again, while others wished they could have had a few more months of sleeping till noon. The Yuki fanclub was mourning the loss of their prince. The student council was hectically trying to get last minute preparations done. There were so many people surrounding me, but I still felt so alone and incomplete…empty.

Everyone else from the Zodiac had found their happy ending. Yuki had gone away to the college of his choice, finally breaking the chains binding him to the Sohma house. Tohru and Kyo decided to move far away together so Kyo could continue training in another dojo. With Hiro by her side, Kisa finally had the strength to face the bullies at her school. Hiro was happily bonding with his baby sister, Hinata, which had brought out the softer side of him. Shigure quit being a novelist and moved back into the main house to be by Akito's side. Akito still has her occasional tantrums, but she opened up to everyone and allowed them all to move on. I'm not exactly sure what happened to Kureno, but I'm sure he's happy somewhere with Uo-chan. Ayame and Mine are happily running their store together, and Ayame has gotten a lot closer to Yuki. Rin is finally letting go of her past with Haru's help, and we haven't seen Black Haru since the curse broke. I think I actually saw Hatori genuinely smiling the other day in the gardens with a teacher from my high school, too. Even Ritsu gave up his cross-dressing habits and is a lot calmer.

But where was my happy ending? I still had to live on my own with no family. Even if the curse was now broken, my dad couldn't just walk up to my mom and announce that I was actually her son. How would he ever explain that to her? He would never risk that, in fear that everything would fall apart again. After the curse had been broken, I had actually gone to see my mom. She looked so beautiful with her hair blowing in the wind. She told me about the family trip, without me of course, they were about to go on when Momo's summer holiday had started. Ahh…Momo. She was the sweetest little girl in the whole world. When Tohru told me that she had been listening to me play the violin and wanted to know me better, I cried tears of joy. My little sister wanted to know me better! But now I've finally begun to realize that being happy over these little things won't do anything. I left my mom that day and haven't spoken to her since. I'm still waiting for my happiness. I knew I couldn't just assume it'll come into my life, but I can't help but feel a little jealous of everyone else.

I'm happy for all of them, I really am, but don't I deserve to finally take off my mask I've worn all my life and finally smile for real? Can't I fill this empty hole in my heart?

This is just the introduction to the real story. Hopefully I'll continue this with a few more chapters and give Momiji his happy ending. I'm planning on taking a leap into the future with this. And no I didn't forget about Kagura, she'll be present in later chapters.

Since I don't really know if this is any good, please feel free to leave honest comments to let me know how I'm doing, or give me any ideas on how to go with this. But please go easy on me, it's my first fanfic! :)
