Disclaimers: I don't own Fruits Basket, only Tanaka Sey the reporter.

Warning: It contains my twisted humor and the characters being MAJOR OOC.

I'm not dissing the characters in any way because I love them all. ^_^ I don't know, I just felt that I needed to say that so people didn't think I did this because I disliked them. -_^

Interview V - Sohma Hatori aka Inu Yashi

"In sleep he sang to me... In dreams he came, that voice which calls to me and speaks my name..." Wow, Sey could hear Ritsu singing from outside Hatori's room. She had to admit that he was good, extremely good, and he sure had good taste. She loved the music from Phantom of the Opera. Oh well, no time thinking about that, now her attention was on Hatori.

She blushed while thinking about him. Hatori, he was a real man, so intelligent and understanding.

She heard a giggle from his room, huh? Was it possible? Was there a girl in there?

His sign was baby blue with dogs on it. How cute.

She knocked.

The giggle was heard again. "Yes?" It was Hatori speaking! Her heart started beating faster.

"It- it is Sohma Ha- ehm, Tanka Sey, the reporter, I am here for an interview." Oh dear, she had almost said his acting name. 'Get a grip!' she told herself.

A giggle again. "Are you cute?"

She was about to open the door when the question finally struck her. Eh!? "Uh, I don't know, can I come in?"

"Yes!"

The door gave out a squeak when she opened it.

"Hello there!"

She turned around and smiled, the smile faded though when she saw how the handsome actor was dressed. What on earth was he wearing!?

NOTE: Speechless.

He giggled and she gasped. The giggle which she had thought belonged to a girl was Hatori!

Was there a possibility that her ears were damaged? It could had happened when she was with Ritsu, he sang and talked real loudly. She nodded to herself, yes, that must be it.

"What do you think about my dress?"

She looked disturbed at it. It was a long baby blue dress with white laces on it; on his strong hands a pair of elegant white gloves was placed. In his beautiful dark hair a midnight blue rosette was sitting proudly. It would suit Honda Tohru a lot better.

His room was decorated in the same fashion, white laces and big fluffy heart pillows were lying everywhere.

"Uhm, very cute." She had no words for it, yes it was cute, but not him.

He beamed at this and gave her a huge smile.

NOTE: So pretty...

His smile made her melt but when she saw the dress again she frowned.

NOTE: Yearns to be a princess?

"Let's go to my veranda, it is such a beautiful day."

"OK."

"Wait a minute; I'll have to get my parasol and Mr. George." A parasol? Mr. George? It sounded like an English butler. He giggled, she could never get used to that.

Million of things was going through her mind, and yet nothing made sense, this was just too weird. "Here they are!"

She saw him holding a big fluffy stuffed bunny with a pink ribbon around its neck and a white parasol in his other hand. "Let's go out!"

It truly was a beautiful day; she took a deep breath and smiled.

"So shall we start?" she asked.

"Yes, let us do so!" He hugged his bunny while rocking it from side to side.

This was absolutely the weirdest interview of them all, she thought while taking out her pad and trusting pen.

"How was it to play Hatori?"

He took Mr. George in front of his face and giggled. "Inu Yashi didn't like it, but he had to do it you see. His Mommy wanted him to take more responsibility and become a mature man and she thought playing this role would do so." Yashi hugged Mr. George. "Isn't he great? He always knows what to say."

NOTE: Probably had a bad childhood where he couldn't express himself – which caused him to do it in his adulthood.

"Yes, he's just wonderful…" she smiled to him, not trying to sound sarcastic. She watched him kissing his loving bunny, crap; this had been a man she had loved to bits (fine, not just Hatori, almost every guy in Fruits Basket…)

"Did you find the role challenging?"

He shook his head. "Not at all, the easiest thing to play is a mature responsible man, what kind of challenge is there in that?" He took out a lollipop from the only pocket in his dress. "I would have loved to play something more great, like Ayame, he is very complicated character, struggling to earn his brother's love yet he is funny loving guy, but I always get these kinds of roles… I don't know why." He got tears in his eyes and he wiped them of. "I'm sorry; I just get very emotional when I think about it…"

She patted his shoulder gently in comfort, wow; he really was a mature guy just a little childish.

"Do you want to take a break from the interview?" she asked and hoped he would say no, timing was important and she needed all of the time she could get.

"It's all right." Yes!

"You have also played with Kyo in another series, correct?"

"Yes," he said while playing with Mr. George's ribbon.

"Uhm, you two were in fact lovers there, correct?"
"Yes."

"Is it embarrassing to play with him again but in a different series and you have another relationship?"

"Not at all, I don't get embarrassed easily," he said casual and twirled his parasol.

She nodded, she could see that, she thought while eyeing his chose of clothes.

"How is your relationship with Ayame in reality?"

His lollipop was no more and he looked at it disappointed. "Not good, he's no fun to play with." He seemed happy again and was now spinning around with Mr. George. "I asked him to play with my beloved Barbies but he threw them away, I had to brush their hair all over again."

Sey had a very hard time imagining all this happening.

"Oh, OK. What do you think about Honda Tohru?"

He got a pained look on his handsome face. "We used to date but she broke up with me… She said she didn't like the way I dressed, I was a disgrace to the male species…" a tear escaped from one of his eyes. "I did everything for her, cooked, cleaned, you name it, all I asked for was for her to play with my dolls and allowing my chose of clothing but she said that is was too much… Can you believe it? Too much! I asked for nothing else." He shook his head sadly. "Now she is with another man…"

"I'm sorry…"

"It is all right, it's not your fault." He buried his face in his bunny. "Mr. George is the only one I can rely on… He's my true friend."

NOTE: His best friend – a stuffed animal.

"That is nice…" she said, not sure what to say.

"Uh-huh."

"Should we continue?" she whispered gently.

"Yes... ask away," he said quietly and straightened his rosette in his hair.

"This is my final question, what are your hobbies?"

This time he made his bunny do the talk again, "Inu Yashi likes to play with his dolls and he also likes me!" Yashi patted his bunny. "That's right Mr. George."

NOTE: Mr. George is quite intelligent for being a stuffed bunny.

"Well, I should be going now, thanks for everything..."

"Goodbye." He took his bunny's paw and made it wave to her.

OK, this had to be a dream but somehow it felt too real to be a dream. This would have to sink in later.

Now it was time to meet the cutest characters of them all – Sohma Kisa.

********

Inoue Kazuhiko is Hatori's voice actor, when I saw it I thought of Inu Yasha in the anime/manga Inu Yasha.

Ran Mouri gave me the advice about the other anime Inoue Kazuhiko is a voice actor at – "Gravitation" which is mentioned here (his role with Kyo).

Thanks for all of the reviews!
