So this was an old FF I typed back when I was a big Fruits Basket fan... I laughed when I read it, so I hope you guys like it haha!
Machi warily gazed around as she looked inside the empty classroom. Coming early to Student Council definitely had its benefits. Ensuring she was alone, she sighed and sank into a nearby chair. Lately, a certain "Red" had been taking up most of her mind, and it could only mean one thing.
Machi had fallen. Hard.
She sighed again, feeling angry that she allowed something like love to conquer her usually quite solid emotions. But now... she reached in her pocket for a stick of gum and found something else instead.
The tiny stuffed Mogeta that Yuki, er, Sohma-kun had given to her as a present. She gazed into its leering smile and opened her mouth.
"Uh... Mogeta..." she mumbled, then paused. "I think I'm in love."
She said it out loud one more time just to ensure she had said it. "I think I'm in love with Sohma Yuki."
"To be honest... I know that Sohma-kun has better things to do than to be with freaks like me." she said in a tiny voice. "And I know that I'm really plain compared to most of the girls in this school. And with my perfection-" A shudder ran through her body at the mention of that hateful word. "-issue... I must really fulfill the definition of 'freak'."
"But..." her voice caught. "I can't help it. I really... I really care for Yuki-kun. Sometimes, I like to kid myself into thinking that the fact that he gives me presents are really because he's trying to... I dunno... tell me that he cares, too, but... it's too hard. Every girl in school wants him, so why bother with me?"
"I don't even know why I'm telling you this." she said in disgust. "I'm so pathetic, I'm blurting out all of my problems to a stuffed doll..."
"Machi?"
She resisted the urge to shriek and whirled around to see...
"Sohma-kun." she acknowledged, bowing slightly. He smiled.
"Still have that Mogeta, huh?"
"Y-Yes..."
Please, please, please tell me you weren't listening...
"I just got here." he said suddenly, as though to answer her unspoken plea. "But I thought there would be more people. Where is everyone?"
"Eh? Um... not sure. I'll go find them."
She quickly excused herself and dashed out, cheeks burning. Yuki blinked, and stuck his head out of the classroom door.
"Wait!" he called. "You... forgot Mogeta..."
He slowly walked towards it, and picked up the soft, plush doll. He opened his mouth.
"Uh... Mogeta..." he mumbled, then paused. "I think I'm in love."
He said it out loud one more time just to ensure he had said it. "I think I'm in love with Kuragi Machi..."
Wasn't that nice~? Ah, I love this couple~
