"Oi Tohru you okay?" Uo asked for about the umpteenth time that morning waving her hand in front of the young girls face. Tohru finally snapped out of it and looked up. "Huh?"
Uo sighed. "You okay kid?"
"Hai never better?" She said instantly plastering a smile on her face.
"In that case want to join Hana and I for lunch?"
"Ano.. I would but I promised Haru-kun I would have lunch with him."
Hana and Uo exchanged a look. Tohru noticed this and bowed. "Gomen."
"No Tohru-chan it is alright." Hana told her putting a comforting hand on her friends shoulder.
"Really?" Tohru asked on the brink of tears.
"Hai, you can have lunch with him, we'll even watch and make sure carrot top and the prince don't make trouble."
"Arigotou."
"Please." Momiji whined to Haru who just shook his head.
"Momiji it's just going to be Tohru and myself. No one else." He insisted and secretly hoped no one else would end up interrupting them.
"But… I wanna eat lunch with Tohru too." He said as his eyes widened.
Haru chuckled and ruffled the rabbits blonde hair. "You know that look doesn't work for me. Next time you can eat with us, but not this time."
"Oh okay." Momiji said smiling once again. "I get it Haru wants to be alone with Tohru…"
Haru tried to keep from blushing but could feel it rise on his face. "Momiji…"
"I won't say anything. I think you two would look good together. And she keeps you from turning black too."
"Yea I guess she does." he said thinking back to earlier that morning when he was arguing with Kyou before school.
Momiji smiled. He knew that Kyou and Yuki were not going to be very happy with the news of their younger cousin liking Tohru, but from the looks of it Tohru felt the same. He only wished things would go well without any interference from Akito. He shuddered at the thought of what happened to Kana to happen to Tohru.
