Disclaimer: I do not own Fruits Basket (cries)
"Hey! You arrived! Come on in, there's a ton we need to catch up on!" Krystal said as she dragged her friend through the front door.
"Ok, ok!" Jamie gasped as she stumbled after her crazy-driven friend.
The two girls took off up the stairs and into Krystal's room, where she was able to put down her things and take off her shoes.
"Wow, nice room" Jamie complimented as she spun around, observing everything in the room, from the lime green sofa to the fluffy purple bed spread.
"Yeah, it took a long time to finally earn the money up to buy everything I wanted, but here it is!"
"Sweet" Both girls flopped onto the green couch and relaxed.
"So, long time no see! How long has it been, two years?" Krystal asked in awe.
"Yeah, much too long. But I am so glad we are able to catch up and all!" Jamie smiled and gave a sigh of relief.
The two girls chatted some, and then decided they were too hungry to go on talking any longer, so they both order pizza.
"Plain cheese medium pizza" Krystal ordered into the receiver, Jamie jumped up.
"Oh! Extra Cheese! Extra Cheese!" She begged.
"With extra cheese." Krystal said.
"Uh-huh, ok, later." She hung up the phone and crawled over to where Jamie had collapsed once again on the floor.
Jamie was skimming through a book from the shelf behind her.
"So, you like to read mangas? Fruits Basket no less.." She asked, studying the drawings on each page.
"Uh-huh! I even have all the anime dvds, and I only need book 6 and 10 until I completed my manga series. Then I will have to wait until August for book 14 to come out, but I already read up to book 18 on my computer." She said excitedly.
"I see…" Jamie said again in a serious tone as she gently placed book 13 down to the side and scratched her head.
"Do you read Fruits Basket?" Krystal asked unsure.
"I have only read up to like, book 3? Yeah, and I seen the anime. But I prefer D.N. Angel…"
With a loud thud, Krystal collapsed to the floor.
"AH! Krystal? Are you ok!" Jamie asked worriedly.
"ah! heart failure!"
"huh?"
"YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY INSANE! FRUITS BASKET PWNS D.N.ANGEL BY A TRILLION!"
Jamie shrieked by her friends sudden explosion of emotion, but after hearing the last words became enraged herself.
"NUH-UH! DARK IS HOTTER THAN ANY OF THOSE FAGS IN FRUITS BASKET!"
"NO WAY! KYO CAN KICK DARK'S ASS, AND IS MUCH MUCH HOTTER THAN THATPOOR EXCUSE FOR A PHANTOM THEIF!"
"NUH-UH!"
"UH-HUH!" The girls were now both in each other's faces, fists raised ready to pummel the other into the wall. That is, until the soft melody of the door bell drifted past their ears.
"PIZZA!" They shrieked together in sheer joy as they raced down the stairs, completely forgetting their brawl over D.N. Angel and Fruits Basket a few seconds ago.
They ate the pizza smiling for ear to ear, talking about random things that popped into their heads. These topics included things such as colors, teeth, crazy rabid squirrels, and the many joys of pushing your younger siblings into the wall.
"Ah….so full!" Jamie said as she slugged over to the garbage pail to throw out the paper plates they used.
"I know! I feel like I can't move!"
They decided to sit there for a while a chat again until they were in good enough condition to go back up stairs and continue their sleepover plans.
"Hm…I guess Dark is not SO bad…" Krystal reasoned, trying to clear over their fight from before, which had just then magically appeared in her thoughts.
"Yeah..and I guess not ALL the guys in Fruits Basket's are gay. Though you can keep Kyo, I prefer Hastuharu out of the rest of 'em." Jamie replied.
"Fine then" The two girls stared at each other for about a minute in silence.
"Now what" Jamie asked, bored.
"RIGHT! NOW, we get to play DDR!" Krystak practically shouted, bouncing toward the stairs. Jamie sighed.
"Calm down, it isn't THAT exciting." Krystal stopped and slowly turned around.
"OF COURSE IT IS! NOW I GET TO BEAT YOU, YA DUMBASS!" Krystal said energetically.
"Yeah sure, Just don't BORE me with your pathetic skills."
"YEAH RIGHT! I WILL BEAT YOU, I PROMISE YOU THAT!
"Pff. I doubt it. Like always this will surely be another victory for me" Jamie said calmly as they climbed the stairs towards Krystal's room.
Krystal ran over to her closet and slid open the doors to drag out the two metal DDR pads. Once she hooked up everything and put in the playstation disc both girls waited.
It didn't take long for them to get started, and after the total 10 minutes to finish the game, Jamie proved to be right. Again.
"DAMMIT! YOU CHEATED!" Krystal shouted enraged by her defeat.
"You are just upset because I was right."
"Yeah well, next time won't be so easy, bitch. Come on, another round!" The girls played for the next two hours, Jamie beating Krystal every round. Finally, they both collapsed after one of the 'fast' songs was finished and Krystal pushed the button to turn off the game system.
"Ha" Jamie spat as she sat up on her mat.
"Just Shut Up and help me put these away. It is almost 12 and my mom is sure to be back from work any minute." Krystal said, clearly worn out.
The pair dragged the mats back in the closet, shut the door and sat once more to relax.
A clash of thunder boomed, shaking the house and startling both girls.
"Ah! A storm? That is odd…I don't remember the weather changing like this, it was suppose to be clear." Jaime muttered as she walked over to the window.
"Oh well, it's no big deal anyway. Not like we are going outside, moron." Krystal replied, resting a hand on her head.
"Idiot" Jaime spat.
"Baka" Krystal answered.
Another crack of thunder sent both girls jumping.
"Whatever, I am tired." Jamie said as she plopped on the lime green couch. She was exhausted and was surprised by the amount of effort it seemed to take just to keep her eyes from closing.
She looked over at the spot on the floor that Krystal had sprawled upon. She was curled up, like a cat, in a ball, eyes closed, looking as if to doze off into dreams any second.
Wouldn't hurt to sleep. Just a nap, a quick nap, and I'll wake her up, too. Jamie decided as she allowed her eyes the pleasure to shut, and fell into the pitch black hole of slumber.
--
Krystal opened her eyes, than sat up.
"Aw, Crap I fell asleep without realizing!" She groaned. She looked around. How strange, I don't remember falling asleep in a closet, and why do I feel so squished.
Her question was answered when she looked over to see her friend pushed up against her side, sleeping. Well that explains it.
"Get the hell off me! Wake up!" Krystal said demandingly as she shoved Jamie away. Her eyes flew open and she yawned.
"Where are we?" Jamie asked tiredly, still half asleep.
"Like hell I'd know, but it looks like we are inside, a closet.." Krystal answered as she pressed her hands against the door, searching for the knob. There was none she could find. Shit.
"Jamie…I can't find the friggin door knob!" She growled, becoming pissed off by the second of having to be stuck in some random closet.
"How did we end up in a closet…" Jaime asked.
"Good Question"
This time, Krystal dropped searching for a knob and began pounding the door with both first. It didn't take long until the door slid open easily. Both girls looked up at the tall figure that loomed over them.
"Toto, I don't think we are in Kansas anymore…" Jaime said flatly as the two looked on with a mix of shock, confusion, awe, and surprise at their unexpected rescuer.
