Another chapter! but it's like 2:30 now and Ive had a great night of watching the eclipse {no NOT the movie, the moon as in the sky above; when it gets all red and pretty!} and now it's winter solstice I believe! Oh and I think it took me a little over 30 min to type this up XD.

Disclaimer: I own only my OCs and the storyline.


So I had a concussion and a pulled tendon from falling, a couple bruising and a sprang wrist, all would be better soon. I'd physically be fine and my cuts would heal, but I felt awful. I'd lost someone else close to me again...

When tomorrow came I didn't go to school. My dad seemed ecstatic for some reason and his dog, Clowie, was always at his side. Well as long as he was up stairs. Which was often to check up on me. He explained to me how the owner couldn't them so he offered to take them back. Then, later in the afternoon Tohru and Yuki came for a visit, tagging along was Kyo.

"Kota, you have company." My dad said as they came in. "Door stays open." He sternly said eying the boys and then left.

Immediately Tohru hugged me. I wasn't that much of a hugger but I was hurting so I figured, why not?

"How are you feeling?"

My dog just died, how do you think! "OK..."

All week they visited. Even after I went back to school, they came home with me. I knew they'd spoken to my dad too. By the end of the week I realized Tohru was my friend.

"Kota are you OK?" She asked. It was Friday and Tohru was spending the night.

"No. I just realized your my friend."

She looked at me oddly.

"I don't want any. I figured I'd move again."

"Aw...it's OK!" She smiled. "It's good to have friends."

"yeah...I know..." I sighed.

When it happened I had been in my p.j.'s. They were black pants and Eeyore slippers and a dark blue tank top. It's way I was really embarrassed by this next part. Tohru and I were on the couch watching a movie that I hardly could keep up with when someone knocked.

"You should answer that..." Tohru said. Gullible me said sure and opened the door.

In came Yuki with Molly in his arms. She had a dark blue cast on her leg and patches on her body. Her stump of a tail wagged happily as she fought Yuki's arms. In came Mike from his room.

"Molly!" I screamed happily. Yuki smiled and Kyo walked in with a small bag.

"Well, there you are, good as new." Mike smiled. he chuckled when I had a hugging fest.

I nearly hugged Yuki and Kyo when Tohru took my arm and led me to the couch as Yuki set Molly down. Molly took off to me and awkwardly attempted to get on the couch. So I go on the floor and cuddled up with her.

"How?" I asked Yuki. It was Mike who answered.

"She was almost dead. In intensive care at the vet. Then they said she'd be ready to go home today."

"I know I should be insanely mad that no one told me, but I'm too happy to be mad!" I said happily snuggle my doby's head.


With some reluctance my dad let Yuki and Kyo stay, only because it was raining outside. Like buckets upon buckets. He ordered pizza and we ate dinner in the living room with some Japanese moving playing.

"You can't understand anything that's happening can you?" Kyo bluntly asked.

"Nope, I can't." I smiled. "But right now I don't care." my surprisingly truthful answer was.

"That's good." Tohru smiled and reached down Molly who was curled up in my lap. Well her head was in my lap. Yuki was on the couch to my left and Tohru to my right. Kyo was sprawled on the love seat.

"Only thing to make this better would be my om...but she won't just pop in here like Molly did. If she did that would be a very cruel joke..."

"How did she...?"

"She was having a surgery a while back ago. She'd gotten in a car accident on the way to a lawyer's office which she wouldn't have needed had it been for that son of a-" I abruptly stopped myself as I noticed I was also speaking English for half that sentence. I took a deep breath and began again. "After that and another one long ago it brought pain to her back, like in her muscles. they couldn't figure it out, then some idiot thought it was her bones or something."

"at least she didn't commit suicide." Kyo said sourly.

"Yeah, well my brother tried to. Thanks to...that doesn't matter."

"My mom died in car accident." Tohru said quietly.

The next voice shocked me. "Mine gave me away to the head of the Sohma's. I have not heard from her since." Yuki said, eyes wide as if it shocked him that he spoke as well.

"This just sucks, I've made all of ya' depressed."

"At least your is still alive." Kyo growled to Yuki. "And didn't kill herself because of what you are!"

"Hey!" I snapped. "If you want to be rude you can sleep outside for all I care, but in while inside your not going to fight, go it? And this isn't just you Kyo, I saw yuki about to say a comment too."

They went silent as Molly gowled a bit at my wired emotions.

"Hey Kota..." Tohru said quietly.

"Yeah."

"Uo wants to know if you need help in math. She said she noticed how frustrated you get."

"Sure. But I'm kind of a lost case in math."

"If she can't help, maybe I can." Yuki smiled.

"OK..." I felt butterflies in my stomach.

"But Kota, you have to let us in." Tohru said almost sternly. She'd not as ditsy as some at school say.

"I'll try..."

"Well this is awkward..." Kyo said aloud.

"yeah, OK, let's get out a bored game or something." I offered.

So for the rest of the night we played monopoly. I had to explain what everything was at first. They caught on quick and I was out first, Tohru soon followed. In the end Kyo won, which put the guy in a never ending gloat fest. Apparently he can't be Yuki at anything.
