Chapter 4: Lucky Bunny
A day in the life of Momiji Sohma
We walked outside of the movie theater, the sunset full of neon colors; vivid, surreal and almost overwhelming in their abstract beauty. My head swayed gracefully toward Tohru who had been right at my side, our hands forever locked together in union.
Only a sky like this could match her beauty. We hadn't spoken since the kiss, it was as if our hearts were speaking for us; the feeling of her hand tied to mines felt like they had melted together and we were one.
Tohru broke the sweet silence with her sweeter voice."Wow, Momiji, look at all the pretty lights – it's amazing!" Tohru cried pointing at them. I laughed, "Yea…" I gazed at her face which held a peaceful, beautiful smile. "It's beautiful. It's perfect" I added.
I looked at the lights as well, "It's very beautiful" I mutter closing my eyes and taking a deep breath. The wind blew and the smell of maple and flower petals danced around us, and I walked slowly as if to make sure our trip home lasted forever.
Shigure's House
As we got to Tohru's house she turned to me and bowed, "Thank you so much for taking me out Momiji, I could never ever repay you for your kindness!" she thanked. She sat up, her eyes full of worry and I felt my heart go cold with feel.
Don't reject me. "M-Momiji… About the kiss" she started. I felt my hands start to shake, Don't leave me. She looked down to avoid looking in my eyes, I wondered what kind of face I was making. I will love you always- "It's just that, I-I" she mutters. I step closer to her like a zombie.
Don't say it Tohru. I grabbed her hand and our eyes met, I wonder if she could see the sorrow in my eyes, "Tohru, I love you" I whisper. And it felt like time stopped. The front door slammed open, "Where in the hell have you two been?!'" Kyo hissed.
"Ahheh, K-Kyo, you scared me!" Tohru gasped sitting up. You won't ruin our moment. I kissed Tohru on the lips and she almost passed out, "You don't have to give me an answer yet, take as much time as you need!" I called smiling cheerfully and running off before Kyo could take my head. "MOMIJI!" he yelled. It was useless for him to try and chase a little fast kid like, as I got far enough from the house and I stopped.
I panted and laid my back against a large tree a few blocks away from the Sohma house. I can't ever be Kyo. I felt my knees shaking and I smiled letting one finger rub my bottom lip. I'll never be Yuki either.
"I got to kiss you again" I whispered looking up and smiling, I chuckled as I felt myself cry: wish it lasted longer though. Those two are so damn cool, I could never in 100 years compare… I waited for my heart to stop pounding so heart and made sure all of my clothing looked normal.
I walked to the Sohma house, I'm just a bunny with a big heart - I wonder if that'll be enough. Akito waited at the front door for me, in all of his menacing MenAcing MENACING and horrible darkness; I smile. "Waiting for me, huh?."
