Chapter 1- unexpected

"Hahahaha, no that's mean!" Tohru teased as cold water was splashed over her. It was finally the summer holidays, and yes no collage for six weeks! Tohru and her new friends from collage which also consisted of Hanna and Uo (Tohru's friends from high school), anyways they were down at the beach enjoying the sunshine! Tohru was wearing a hot pink bikini which showed off her cleavage, she also distinctly looked more womanly. Tohru and her friends were waist deep in the water.

Meanwhile the Sohma's walked down the stone steps that led to the sandy beach. (Not including Akito) Kyo was complaining about being forced to go to some stupid place, and Momiji and Kisa ran on ahead with wide smiles spread across their faces. Suddenly Momiji and Kisa froze, as their vision landed on the smiling Tohru who was splash fight with her friend.

"Hey, what's up with you, why having you just stoppe..." Kyo stopped in mid sentence has he too focused on the screaming Tohru who was being picked up by a boy and playfully chucked in to the water. The other Sohma's joined the staring Kisa, Kyo and Momiji.

"She looks happy." Stated Ayame and Shigure agreed as they watched the smiling Tohru who was waist deep in water.

"Well it has been about half a year now, I wonder how she is doing at collage?" Shigure thought out loud.

The Sohma clan carried on walking on the sand and set up the beach things. Kyo of cause hating water sat on the sand looking at the scenery. Momiji, Kisa, Hiro, Yuki and Hatsaharu where splashing around in the water not far off from where Tohru was. Kyo's attention moved back to Tohru who was now out of the water and walking up to some bags and towels on the sand, she picked one up and wrapped it around herself, after a few moments the rest of the group joined her. Kyo could help but fell like a part of him was missing; he still deeply loved Tohru, however he didn't know if she still felt the same.

By now the sun was setting and Momiji, Kisa, Hiro, Yuki and Hatsaharu where now out of the water; Hatori was cooking on a barbeque with help from Ayame and Shigure. Well help wasn't really the word, it was more pestering.

Suddenly the group heard the sound of a guitar and singing, they all looked in the direction of where it was coming from. About 100 yards away Tohru and her friends were sitting around a small fire that lit up the area surrounding them, one of the boys was playing the guitar and the rest of the group was singing along to it.

Some of the group were standing up and waving their arms around to the music, some were drunk and falling over everybody.

"Maybe we should try singing, maybe it would lighten up this dreary mood." Shigure exclaimed excitedly. However was stopped by a fist hitting the side of his face.

"Ow that hurt, Yuki is still being as cold as ever!" Shigure whined imitating Momiji.

"Shame, you didn't hit him harder Yuki." Hatori said in his monotone voice, Shigure had dramatically started to fake cry, people could be so cruel.

Shigure stopped and watched the group including Tohru walk past them towards the steps that lead of the beach. They were all laughing and giggling, and then Tohru's turquoise eyes met with crimson ones that were owned by Kyo. She gasped and look at the other Sohma's staring at her. She did a half hearted smile at them.

"Long time, no see, huh." Shigure said smiling at her, she nodded back.

"Yes it has." She replied looking a bit dazed

"How have you all been?" She asked

"Good, thanks!" They all replied

"Oh, ok, I better go. Bye! " Tohru piped up and waved.

"Um, Tohru!" Kyo shouted after her, now stood up and walking over to her, away from the other Sohma's.

"Can I talk to you for a moment... please?" Kyo for once politely asked

"Urr, sure!" Tohru answered, smiling at him.
