Akito's Romance
What happens when Akito falls in love...

Disclaimer: I do not own Fruits Basket or its characters (though I wish I did).
I do own Mika-chan and this story. Also this is my first anime fanfic so please
don't be harsh when you R&R.

Thank you to those people who read my story and reviewed so kindly!

Chapter 3

"I'm here," Shigure-san called out once he'd entered the main house.
He entered the living room where Hatori and Akito were waiting for him.
"Akito-san. Are you feeling well enough to be out of bed?"

"I may be sick, but I am not an invalid. I don't need to stay
in bed all the time. Shall we start?"

"Yes, about Mika-chan..." Shigure started.

"She will have to have her memory erased." retorted Akito.

"You never even gave me the chance to finish." *Even at the risk
of my own health I will ignore that remark. She has feelings for him.
I'm sure she wouldn't want to forget that.* "There's something about her.
Whenever she hugs us the transformation is never complete.
Almost immediately we transform back."

There was silence for a few moments as the three men pondered it.

"You haven't said anything yet, Ha-san, what do you think of this
situation?" asked Akito.

Hatori looked at them. "Could it be that she has the spirit to
break our curse?"

"That is a possibility. I will think about it. Hatori will call
when I've reached my decision."

"Thank you for reconsidering about erasing her memory, Akito."
Shigure stood up and left.

***********************************************

A week later at dinner...

"Yes. Alright. Thank you Ha-san." Shigure hung up with a smile
on his face. "Akito has agreed with Hatori-san that she could have the
potential to break the curse. He will not have Ha-san erase her memory.
She will go into training with the head priest at the temple instead."
