Chapter III: Momiji's Visitation

Kyo

"They are home!" I heard Shigure calling. What should I do? Should I greet her, say 'are you all right?' Ah, damn! Before I could decide what to do they were already inside.

I found myself standing right in front of her...

"Hi..." I said a bit uncomfortable.

"Hello," she smiled. "Kyo-kun right?" I jerked up my head surprised, then remembered that Shigure had told me she had amnesia, she didn't remember... even me? How she had helped me, was all that forgotten?

"Yeah..." Would she ever remember... about me? "I gotta go!"

This had hurt me... more than I admitted, even to myself. I rushed out passed her into the woods.

Everything, everything she had said, was all those memories gone? Was she another person now? Would she act the same around me? Would she still want to be with me if she remembered my curse, my true form?

Yuki

That stupid cat, always rushes away when he's insecure. Not that I would spend my day by thinking about that baka neko. I had another one to worry about, and that was Honda-san.

"Honda-san let me show you to your room."

"Thanks, Yuki. We don't happen by a chance to share rooms?" She winked to me.

"No..." I whispered. Why was my heart beating faster? This wasn't her... but it was... but she wasn't the same! I was feeling rather confused, none of this made sense right now.

"Tohru-kun, let me carry you since your leg's broken," Shigure offered. I hoped Shigure would be careful not to carry her to close to his chest.

Honda-san lit up. "OK!" We started to walk towards her room.

"I don't happen to have a boyfriend?" she asked. "Maybe one of you guys is..."

I almost stopped breathing. Maybe I should lie? Say I was, but I regretted the thought right after I thought it, I would never do such a thing! Besides this wasn't the mind of the girl I cared so much about.

"Eh, no, you don't have a boyfriend." Shigure was quiet which surprised me; I thought he was going to say he was.

"WHAT? Hehe, I can't believe it, but maybe I'm not pretty enough for you guys?" She looked down at the floor.

"No, you're perfect, it's just that... you're our friend, you don't see us that way." Even though she wasn't acting the way she used to she still was Honda-san. I couldn't bring myself to be to honest with her.

"Really? God, I must have been very dense and stupid! You are guys are so yummy!"

I blushed. I put her bags down on the floor and was about to walk out. Shigure put her down on her bed.

"Wait! Stay, let's talk..." she called out, she sounded desperate. Was she afraid of being alone?

"I'm sorry, but you need your rest."

"Yuki's right," Shigure agreed. "Now sleep..."

"But that's sooo boring! Let's play! Hehe." She winked to the both of us. Before she continued talking we stepped outside and closed the door.

"She's so different, she's like a stranger," I said to Shigure.

He sighed. "You're right..."

Tohru

There was no way I could sleep now. I was too excited. I wanted to look through my clothes, see what I got; maybe I had something sexy that would turn all the Souma boys on.

I reached for my crutches and walked towards the closet and opened it. There was nothing fun inside; thank God I had some short skirts at least. Hmm... Maybe if a cut a bit here and there some of the shirts would look fabulous! I wanted to talk to Kyo, he always rushed out, I would find a way to make him stay!

Suddenly I felt so tired, maybe I should sleep... I glanced at the picture on my nightstand. It was Mother.

Mother, who am I?

Momiji

I was on my way to Shigure's house since I wanted to visit Tohru, I hope she is feeling well enough to see me...

"TOHRU!" I yelled as soon as I opened the door. Shigure came and greeted me.

"Be quiet, she's sleeping, but come in." Oops.

"Is it all right if I knock on the door?" I asked.

"Fine, but if she looks tired leave her alone."

"I will!" Finally I was able to meet her, I was so worried. I knocked.

"Come in," she said, her voice sounded a bit different... "Who are you?" she asked when I opened.

"Hi, I heard you had amnesia, I'm Momiji! One of your closest friends!" I smiled.

"Momiji... How old are you?" Just like in the beginning! Hi hi, well I didn't mind that she was unsure of my age, many were.

"I'm one year younger than you."

"I can't believe it, I live with three gorgeous guys and I still I hang out with a kid, am I pathetic of what," she mumbled.

It felt like someone hit me. A kid? Was I a kid?

"Tohru..." What was I to say? I was shocked by this. What have I done?

"I gotta sleep," she said, "go away..."
