Tohru-Kun's Hat
I still don't remember the one who gave this to me. I remember what
happened, exactly what happened, so why can't I remember their face? I wish
I knew.
"Tohru-kun? Are you okay?" came a worried voice, and I looked up at
Shigure's smiling face. I looked at him with a smile back.
"I was just lost in thought," I said.
"Which you are so damn often!" Kyo thundered from across the dinner
table.
"I'm... s... sorry!" I stammered.
"Its okay, being lost in thought is something you do well," Yuki
said quietly.
"Damn rat!" Kyo muttered before eating again.
"Well, maybe you could tell us what you were wondering about, we
might be able to help," Yuki suggested. I smiled and shook my head.
"It's nothing, it happened years ago, so it's not like something
can be done. I mean, I don't even know..." I trailed, and then turned
bright red.
"What is it?" Kyo pressed. I couldn't tell them about the hat. You
see, years ago, I was I was always teased by the boys, and I was scared of
them, so one day, as they were chasing me, I hid and stayed in that hiding
place all night, crying and crying. In the morning, a boy with a hat
appeared in front of me, and ended up leading me home, and then he even
gave me his hat, which I now treasure dearly.
"You're simply at it again Miss Honda," Yuki said with a true
smile. I have been at the Souma house for over a year and a half now, and I
have learned a lot about the Soumas. I have even seen Kyo's true form, but
it doesn't bother me now as much as I thought I would. Akito has changed
too, even if it seems small. I have received an early invitation to the
next New Years Eve, seeing as how I know the secret, and am a very good
influence (so everyone says) on everyone.
"Damn, there you go again!" Kyo shouted, "Never mind... just be
careful not to burn yourself or hurt yourself, or something."
"O... okay!" I stuttered out, "Anyone want some more tea?"
"That would be wonderful, do you need any help?" Yuki asked.
"No, I'm fine," I said.
"Are you sure you're okay?" Shigure asked.
"Thank you for your concern, but I'm fine," I said, and picked up
the teapot. Why was it lately I couldn't get that boy out of my head? Why
couldn't I just push it aside now, the memory of the boy that had the hat
to begin with? I began to heat up some more water. I wonder if he still
lives around here. Does he even remember me?
~Yuki~
Something was on Miss Honda's mind. I think she was troubled with it,
but didn't want to worry us. That was exactly like her, to not worry and
such. I think I'll invite Kisa or Momiji over, which should cheer her up.
Either that or maybe I should get Uho-san or Hana-san to help her cheer up.
"Now who's lost in thought?" Shigure teased. I smacked him upside
the head.
"We'll have none of that," I replied calmly.
"Why me?" Shigure wondered aloud.
"Maybe if you shut up once in a while, it wouldn't happen so
often!" Kyo exclaimed, and then checked himself when he saw Tohru coming
back in.
"I brought tea," she smiled. She always smiled, and I loved her for
that. I knew Kyo cared about her too, but I wasn't about to provoke him...
yet...
"Would you mind pouring me another cup Miss Honda?" I asked
politely. She gently poured some into my cup. Maybe someday I'd have the
courage to tell her how I feel.
~Tohru~
I yawned, it was time for bed! At least tomorrow was a weekend. I
wondered what I should do. I normally did laundry in the morning, made
breakfast, and then we did our own thing until dinner that evening. I felt
like going to the park tomorrow, the weather reporter had said it would be
a beautiful day. I should invite Kisa and Momiji! We could all have a fun
time! I lay down on the bed in my pajamas. I was extremely tired. Oh well,
tomorrow is another day, and I could hopefully have some fun, at least,
while it was warm. I yawned again, snuggled underneath the covers and went
to sleep.
~Yuki~
I wondered if she knew yet. Did she realize that I was the boy? It's
been all I can think about, ever since I heard the story she told her
friends. I never knew whom I had helped, but in my mind it seemed more and
more familiar to me, that the person I had helped was Tohru. It had to be,
she was the same person years ago, same clueless face. That was my best hat
back then too! Does she care about me at all? Did she care at all back
then? Someday, someday I'd ask her. I'd ask her and maybe she still did
care, and I could tell her how I feel. Someday...
A/N: Yeah, short first chapter. The incident with the hat was taken from
the manga, number 2 of the Fruits Basket series. I thought it would be cute
to write a little romance on that topic, it looked like Kyo to me in the
manga. Read and Review please! (No flames unless they include ways for me
to improve, or are G-PG.) I hope you liked it!
A/N updated version: Thank you to TYouhkriu for informing me that it was
in fact Yuki who had the hat in the first place instead of Kyo, so I hope
by changing it, it doesn't put you off from reading it anymore or enjoying
it, just a little bit would change. I hope to have the next chapter up
soon! Thanks again TYouhkriu!
