Unexpected Call

It was gorgeous summer's day with a riveting blue sky with welcoming, fluffy white clouds scattered here and there. Children were swinging or playing tag while adult were taking waking and enjoying the beautiful day that had been given to them

Tohru Honda was scampering around the kitchen doing a mixture of cooking and cleaning. She was once again silently pondering to herself what she should make. Weather it was out inspiration or something else entirely she didn't really know, but she looked the window. There, a little bird was perched just outside the window.

"What do you think, Mr. Bird?" she asked smiling. The bird cocked its head to one side and then proceeded to fly away.

Kyo had been watching this spectacle however Tohru was, as usual, oblivious and was therefore startled when had discovered the cat's presence.

"You really want to know what to make?" he asked in exasperation.

Tohru jumped a little and then turned around, "Yes, of course!" she responded eagerly.

"Why don't you make your favorite for a change?"

Tohru blinked a couple times not really understanding, "M-mine? I couldn't do that," This was defiantly a new concept. There were a few meals that she had favored, but what on earth would she do if they didn't like them. There was no way, right? It had to be out of the question.

As if reading her mind Kyo advanced three steps toward her and placed both of his strong hand delicately on her cheeks trying to make her look at him.

"Tohru, trust me on this if you like we will too. I promise.

"B-but that doesn't help me at all! There are so many things that I like to eat! I wouldn't know which one to go with!"

She was about to continue when he placed a finger on her lips, "Then just pick one."

Tohru's face darkened at that point and she shyly averted his gaze, "O-okay…" she whispered in a small voice.

"Kyo, I hope you're being a good little boy," Shigure snickered with a sly grin plastered on his face.

Kyo unsurprisingly wasted no time in bopping his cousin on the head, "Tohruuuu! Make Kyo be nice to me!!!" Shigure whimpered.

Tohru was about to come to his defense when the phone started ringing. "Hello, Tohru speaking," she answered cheerily. Her eyes had doubled in size when she heard the voice on the other end respond.

"R-Rika?"

"I can't believe I'm taling to you! Its so nice to hear from you again!"

"Now? Really?"

"Of course, see you soon!"

"What the hell was that all about?" Kyo inquired.

"That was Rika Fugimori. She was a little girl that I babysat. Our mothers were really good friends in middle school. You wouldn't mind if she came over for a little bit, wouldn't you? I don't want it to bother you or anything."

"Don't be such a worry-wort, Tohru! This is your house too remember so it shouldn't be an issue if you have friends over or not," Shigure responded

"B-but I-" Tohru stammered

"No buts!" Kyo retorted, even though he could hardly wrap his brain around the idea of agreeing with Shigure of all people.

Tohru didn't know what to say. She was grateful, of course, but she couldn't shake that feeling that she was taking advantage of them. She bit her lip not wanting to give up, but she said nothing. She looked up at them maybe hoping that they might have changed their minds, but saw no hints of wavering. She had just gotten lunch ready when she heard the ring of a doorbell. Quickly, she washed her hands and went to go answer it.

A\O: So whatda ya think??? Good? Bad? You know the drill, now go write me lovely reviews so I can know how I did, alrightie? ;P (even if with there're not 'lovely' per se I still want them!)
