My first Fruits Basket fanfic! WHOOT!
----------------------------------------
Yuki had been watching her every movement. And she hadn't noticed him yet either. Cooking as usual. She is so naïve and unknowing; how could she not notice his feelings for her? Can't she take the hint?:
"oh I love strawberries!"
"I thought you might, that's why I'm planting them." I'm planting them just for you!
"oh! I couldn't go on a date-!"
"yes, a date." I want you to know and love me, why don't you see it?
"I want to go home…"
"well in that case…!" why else would I be back for you? I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you!
She'd probably never understand. "miss Honda?" Yuki called in his soothing voice.
"yes, Yuki?" she turned her head, the rest of her focusing on her task.
"what masterpiece are you making today, may I ask?"
"oh! No! it's not that good, I mean, I hope you like it! But it's nothing like a masterpiece it's just a new recipe. But I'll stop if you don't like trying anything new! I can go back to making riceba-" Yuki's finger quickly lay on her lips. Tohru stopped and blushed, realising she was getting a little carried away. "… strawberry muffins," she stated, simply.
Yuki smiled. "I can't wait. And I'm sure it'll be delicious." Then he added under his breath "like you."
"huh?" she asked, muffled by his finger.
"and new. I said delicious and new." Or at least that's what I want you to think I said.
At that time, Shigure entered the kitchen. "AW! Someone has a crush on someone!" he sang, seeing Yuki so close to Tohru's face. Yuki snatched his finger away as quickly as he could.
"Shigure, you're crazy," he stated, I don't have a crush, I'm in love!
"then why were you flirting with the beautiful Tohru?"
"oh, no! Yuki wasn't doing anything like that! I mean, why would he be doing that to me? Not that I wouldn't allow that! No, that came out wrong; what I'm trying to say is that Yuki was only doing-" the finger returned. "… that," she mumbled. He seemed to make things so much easier to say.
Shigure turned on his heel, humming a very annoying tune. "you can't deny it!" and finally left.
Yuki silently grunted. Shigure already knows he likes Tohru but why does he always have to make it so obvious? What if Tohru had found out (even though that's highly unlikely since she was really naïve)? Would she still treat him the way she usually did? All these frustrating thoughts raced through his head as his rat ears appeared which hadn't happened in a long time.
"Yuki?"
she had caught him off guard and he transformed.
"Yuki!" she said, worriedly. "what's wrong? Are you okay? Is something bothering you? I didn't nudge into you by accident, did I? are you just angry? Oh gosh! Are you angry at me?!" she picked him up in her hands.
Yuki had always loved the softness of her hands when she picked him up; so comforting and safe. "no, miss Honda, of course it's not the slightest bit your fault." It's all your fault! It's because I love you so much. Why must you be so perfect?
"Yuki, if there's something wrong, I'm always here to listen if you want someone to talk to," she gave her warm smile. The rat's heart melted as all he could do was stare up at the gentleness of her beautiful face.
"miss Honda, I have a confession to make."
Tohru was all ears. The look on her face was adorable!
"miss Honda… I l-"
POOF!
She shrieked and turned as fast as she could. Yuki grabbed his clothes, blushing furiously. What the hell was I thinking?! I can't tell her that! There's no telling what she'll think of me! So what do I do? Just suppress all my feelings for her like I would do anyone else? As he got dressed, he couldn't help but wonder what feelings Tohru had for him? does she like him too? Or did she hate him, but not show it?
"I'm sorry about that, miss Honda." He left before Tohru could blabber on about how he doesn't have to apologise. But left her confused as well. What was that all about?
