Okay well, this story, I think has a very strange concept and is over-all slightly pointless. It started as a one-shot, but in the end it was too long, so I think the hardest part, in the end was breaking up the story into chapters XD Okay well, more will be explained as we go but for now just read and enjoy!

'No, no no no no no no." Tohru groaned into her pillow trying to reach for the snooze button. 'Let me sleep, just a little longer, mom.' Tohru breathed in, still not opening her eyes, to smell sharp wind in her room. Tohru looked up to see her window open. Why was her window open? She just groaned and pulled herself out of bed to close the shutters. 'The wind must have blown them open.' Tohru now felt awake, even though she didn't exactly want to. She enjoyed the peaceful feeling of sleep, it was a lot more peaceful then the days she had experienced lately.
'They're my friends! And they've given me so much! If I were to complain what kind of person would I be?' Tohru said tugging her uniform shirt over her head. 'I can't say anything bad about them! I can't! But if I did for a very brief out of character moment I might say that they have become disgusting slobs. And I might say that they are becoming a far too dependent on me. And I might say that they are driving me up the wall! But I would never actually think that.' Tohru thought braiding her hair into two pigtails as she sighed.
Tohru examined herself in the full sized mirror beside her bed, tweaking every little thing about her appearance just to delay going downstairs. Tohru sighed out of grief when she realized that there was nothing left to do then go down.
Tohru headed down to the kitchen in relief that there was no one awake… yet. Eventually Tohru heard a door open and hurried footsteps run downstairs.
"Oh! Good morning, Kyo!" Tohru said cheerfully, even though she didn't exactly live up to her joyous face.
"Mmph," was the red-head's only reply as he grabbed a few rice balls that Tohru had just finished preparing for herself. And then ran out of the room again stuffing his face. Tohru sighed and went back to making more rice balls. "Oh, Tohru, I almost forgot. I left my laundry basket by the top of the stairs."
"U-um, Kyo, you really should bring them down it could be dangerous, someone might trip on them."
"That's the point…" Kyo mumbled as he moved toward the entry way looking in the direction of the stairs.
"Huh?" Tohru questioned as she came into the living room from the kitchen.
"Wait for it…" Kyo said more audible this time. Tohru gave Kyo a strange look when she heard a door open, followed by a couple of groggy steps and then…
"OOF!" –BANG-CRASH-
"AHAHAHHAHAHHAHA!" Kyo laughed so hard he was practically in tears.
"EH?!?!" Tohru rushed out into the entry way to see Yuki buried under a pile of laundry face down on the wood floor. "AH! YUKI! ARE YOU ALRIGHT?!?!"
Yuki seemed to completely ignore her, his eyes were fixated on the cat. "Stupid cat, you did that on purpose!"
"And what if I did? What are you going to do about it?!" Kyo shot back. Yuki responded by grabbing a pile of laundry and flinging it towards Kyo's face. It came by so fast it practically whipped Kyo in the head. Kyo just grew angrier and grabbed some more dirty clothes and threw that at Yuki. Soon it became a full fledged fight, their only weapons being a mountain of laundry that smelled like week-old cod fish.
"U-um, please… don't, fight… uh…" Tohru began to mutter when a piece of stray laundry came by and whipped her on the side of the head. Tohru fell to the floor out of shock.
"Tohru!"
"Ms. Honda!"
Tohru didn't respond. "Stupid cat, this all your fault!"
"My fault? How is this my fault!?! You're the one who hit her!"
"If you hadn't pulled that stupid prank none of us would even be in this mess!" Tohru's eye twitched slightly as she continued to listen to the two boys fight.
"Well you didn't have to run into it!"
"STUPID CAT!"
"DAMN RAT!" Tohru heard the screen door crunch into non-existence as Kyo was flung through.
"ENOUGH!" Tohru shouted at the top of her lungs catching both boys off-guard. "I-I mean, it's fine, I'm okay, let's just have a nice breakfast, alright?" The two boys got up from their fighting stance and nodded.
"Actually, I have to go." Kyo said picking up the rice balls he had left on the table and leaping out of the crashed door without even bothering to say goodbye.
Tohru headed into the kitchen and continued to make some more rice balls for herself only for them to be snatched by Yuki. "Actually, Ms. Honda, I have to go to." Yuki said placing the rice ball in his mouth.
"Okay." Tohru managed to stutter.
"Oh, and before I forget, some student council members are coming over for dinner so if you wouldn't mind making a little extra for dinner it would really be appreciated." Knowing her for so long he didn't even give her the chance to respond as he thanked her and headed out the door.
"But, I have work today!" Tohru called out to no one in particular.
"MY HOUSE!" Shigure called from the entry hall. "Tohru! What has happened to my house?! There is a sea of laundry in the hallway and my door is smashed to bits!!"
'What do you think?' Tohru said in her mind. "Well, Kyo and Yuki had a bit of a run-in this morning." Tohru said giggling nervously.
Shigure put his head in his hands. "Why does everything happen to me?" Tohru's eye twitched again. "Well, Tohru I have a meeting with my editor, if you wouldn't mind fixing the sliding door? That would be wonderful. Oh! And my office could also use a little cleaning up, just as long as you're at it. Shigure said taking yet again the rice balls she had prepared. "Bye Tohru!"
"Bye Shigure." Tohru said a little shaky. As she reached down in her electric rice cooker only to see all the rice was gone. Tohru's eye twitched again.
The following chapters are longer then this and I guess I would consider this more of an introduction then anything... anyway please review!
