This is my first story here, so constructive criticism is apprecited. Reveiw please!


Youhei looked nervously at his friends from high school. They sat around the square table, laughing and having a good time. He had known them for years, but they all seemed like strangers now.

"Is something wrong?" Tomoya, his best friend, asked him. Ushio sat in his lap.

He laughed sheepishly. "No no, nothing at all." He waved his hands in front of his face. But he was lying.

Tomoyo stood up. "We have an anouncement to make." She smiled, and yanked Youhei up by his shirt. He was sweating like crazy. Everyone was looking at them, waiting for the news.

"We're getting married!"

"Who would've guessed." Tomoya remarked.

"Hey, it was bound to happen eventually and you know it! I mean no girl can resist my charming good looks." He did his signature hair flip. Tomoyo kicked him about ten times, sending Youhei across the room. "Ow..." He muttered weakly.

Ushio crawled out of her father's lap and walked over to where Youhei lay on the floor, twitching. "Will Uncle Youhei be alright Daddy?"

"Oh, he'll be fine if you poke him a bit."

Ushio nodded, and began poking Youhei.

"Fuko wants to poke the wierd guy too!" Fuko rushed over to Youhei, and joined Ushio. "He really is hopeless isn't he?" Mei, Youhei's little sister, face-palmed.

"Wow Tomoyo, that's great news!" Nagisa said.

"Thanks!"

"Hey what about me!" Youhei quickly recovered. "I'm getting maried too! And you!" He pointed to Tomoya. "Telling Ushio to poke me. It's bad enough my girlfriend kicks me everytime she gets mad!"

"Do you want me to kick you again?"

"No no no, I'm good! Really!"

"So when's the wedding?" Kyou asked the couple.

"In about five months." Tomoyo returned to her seat.

"It seems like so long, but I'm sure once you get everything sorted out and bought, it will be time already." Ryou, Kyou's twin sister, commented. Tomoyo smiled at her.

'Yeah' Youhei thought. 'Time already.' He yawned. "I think I'm going to go home. I'm going to look for a new job tomarrow; I'll need my sleep." Once he and Tomoyo had started dating, he quit the modeling job and moved to an apartment a few blocks away to be closer to her.

"Alright. We'll see you." Tomoya called after him.

As Youhei walked down the street, snow fell lightly. 'Everything's changing.' He thought. 'Soon Tomoyo and I will be together forever.' He smiled. Not all changes were bad. He was looking forward to spending his life with Tomoyo.


So Youhei and Tomoyo are getting married, huh? Looks like the Clannad cast is in for a new adventure. Youhei in particular.

I apologize for the short chapter. It's really meant to introduce the story, so it's supposed to be short
