My Favorite Day
On Saturday morning, Tohru opened her eyes two seconds before her alarm clock went off.
"That's good," Tohru said happily as she switched it off. "My internal clock is back on track!" Several days ago, she'd overslept and almost been late for school.
In ten minutes, Tohru was dressed in a short brown skirt and a pink blouse with bows on it. She glanced at the clock, which said 8:10, while adjusting the bows in her hair. Tohru remembered a few small errands she had to run, although the boys and Shigure had taken care of the big on, groceries, for her yesterday. She was grateful for the extra free time she'd have today because of it.
Tohru ran downstairs, where Shigure was already up and drinking coffee, and Yuki was sitting, half-asleep with his head on the table. Kyou must have still been upstairs.
"Shigure-san," Tohru announced, I have to go out for a while, but I'll be back by 9:30, and we can have a late breakfast!"
Shigure smiled and nodded. "Okay, Tohru-kun, we'll see you later. Be careful coming through the woods!"
"Hai!" Tohru replied, before grabbing a bag and rushing out the door. Shigure watched her out the window, as she ran to the edge of the clearing around the house, wheeled, and sprinted back.
"Nyoooooo..." Tohru panted as she pushed open the door. "I forgot the money." Shigure held out a small purse, which she took, then left a second time. Shigure made sure she was well into the trees before running to the back door.
He thrust the paper door open and called, "Kyou! Time!" Kyou dashed inside, carrying two bags stuffed with ribbons, streamers, party hats, and other party accessories. He was followed by Momiji, Ayame, and Kagura. Shigure grabbed a bag of confetti Kagura had dropped and followed the others.
Inside, party décor went up like mad. (We notice that Yuki is suddenly fully awake) A beautifully decorated cake was set on the table, ribbons and streamers were fastened on every wall and doorway, and balloons floated across the house, bumping into walls, cabinets, and each other. During this time, many people also arrived. Finally, everything was ready, and the partygoers hid themselves in the living room.
When Tohru appeared in the clearing, she was very happy. She'd taken care of all her errands, and even remembered at the last minute to pick up a disposable camera. She'd been meaning to get some pictures of herself with Hana-chan, Uo-chan, Yuki, and Kyou. As she walked up to the door, it opened, and she saw Yuki standing in the doorway.
"Honda-san," Yuki said, "would you come with me? There's something you should see."
"Ee!" Tohru replied, "Just let me put these things away..."
Yuki smiled at her. "No need, just come with me!" Tohru tilted her head questioningly, but did as she was told and set her bag by the door.
"Close, your eyes, okay?" Yuki said, mystifying Tohru even more. She did so, and felt Yuki take her wrists in his hands from behind.
"Sohma-kun, what are we doing?" Tohru giggled. She was trying to guess what was going on. No thoughts of birthdays entered her head.
"Just walk forward, okay? I'll make sure you don't bump into things," Yuki assured her. Tohru took a tentative step, and soon was making her way to the living room, Yuki guiding her around the coat rack, Kyou's shoes, and the small floor cabinet by the door. As Tohru and Yuki stepped into the living room, he stopped her.
"Open your eyes now," Yuki told her. As Tohru did so, Shigure, Kyou, Kagura, Hatori, Momiji, Ayame, and Hatsuharu jumped from behind various pieces of furniture yelling, "Happy birthday!!"
Tohru's eyes widened. "Birthday..." Everyone stared at her as she scratched her head, looked up, around, and finally at the calendar hanging on the wall. "Kyaaa! It's my birthday!" Tohru said, amazed. Everyone but Shigure, Kyou, and Yuki fell over anime-style. (AN: Um, duh. Of course it's anime style. It's anime. I'm so freaking dumb...)
"Tohru-chan didn't know it was her birthday?" Momiji asked. "Haaaaaahh," Tohru breathed. "How did you know? I totally forgot!" Kyou rolled his eyes.
"Ara ara," Shigure interrupted. "We can tell stories later. Time to have a party!!"
"YAAY!" Momiji yelled. Tohru's eyes were getting very large and teary. (AN: Sorry to keep interrupting with useless dialog, but don't you all love it when their eyes get all huge and start moving around? It's so cute and funny!) "You did all of this for me?" She said, choking on happy tears. Shigure-san and Sohma-kun and Kyou-kun...and all of you?"
Kagura moved to put a friendly arm around Tohru's shoulders. "Tohru, you are our special friend! How could you think we'd let this pass once we knew?" Tohru was completely overcome. "But so much effort-"
Ayame moved forward. "It was no trouble; my superior decorating skills were put to good use!" Yuki snorted, and covered it up with a cough.
"My dear brother, don't you agree?" Ayame said, striding toward Yuki and pulling him into a hug. "Get the hell off me," Yuki growled, pushing him away. "Ooooh, Yuki, it's supposed to be a happy occasion!" Shigure commented, grinning. "Why don't you give your brother a big hug to show how happy you are?" Yuki flushed. He glanced at Tohru, who was presently staring around the room with teary eyes and a stupid grin. (AN: I know, it's kind of a weird mix if you picture it, but I thought that both would work in the situation. Maybe using them together wasn't the best of ideas...OK. I'll shut up and stop interrupting now.)
"So why don't we start?" Yuki asked, putting a hand on Tohru's shoulder. The contact brought her out of her stupor. "Thank you so much everyone!" Tohru cried (a little late, but we'll get over it), throwing her arms around Yuki's neck and half-crying with gratitude. "Thank-" Yuki turned into a mouse. "Oops," Tohru finished lamely.
AN: Hahaha! That was sooo long! I can't believe I wrote so much! And it only took a couple hours, isn't that cool? Actually, the very beginning was hard to get started, but I got going pretty good fast! So how'd ya'll like the latest chapter? I hope you did, I had fun writing it! I promised I'd have the party this chapter, and I started it, but I figured I'd better cut it short since it was getting a bit long. I'll clean it up in the beginning of next chapter. But I promise they have fun! I know I said, "Lots of hugs" in the summary, but that was the first one! I just hadn't been finding any opportunities to have Tohru hug people though! I'll have a couple more next chapter, KK? My favorite part was when Yuki had Tohru close her eyes and guided her into the room. Don't you guys think that was cute? Oh, if anyone noticed that some of the Juunishi, like Rin, Kisa, Hiro, etc. were missing, it's because I have neither read the manga nor seen the anime that far. Sorry about that! Akito wasn't there cuz I didn't want him there. That was on purpose.Yeah. So yeah! Next chapter will be the last; will you be sorry to see it end? Lol, leave me a review and tell me! Now some shoutouts for my wonderful reviewers, I got sooo many this time around! Thank you all!
Minamino-chan: OMG! That was seriously one of the nicest reviews I've ever gotten! ^_^ *hugs brownie points*
Hikari Rioki: Haha, hey! Glad you're back ^_^ Sorry I kinda led you on, it really was Tohru's b-day..she just forgot cuz she's slow like that ^_^ Yeah, I decided not to have Akito make an appearance cuz he's too scary to come to a birthday party, don't you think? I just can't picture him there..
A girl and her muses: Wai!!! On your favorites list? Arigato gozaimasu! That makes me feel soo special! Thanks for last time, again! I seriously wouldn't have noticed ^_^
Sugar High Yusukeholic: Haha, after I wrote that I was thinking the same thing..it is the kinda thing you'd find in a shonen ai fic, huh? ^_^
Satori: Thanx! Hope ya come back, we always like that!
:): Woo, thanks! A receiver! That's kinda obvious I guess..I'm kinda dumb ^_^ Love the name btw ^_^
Alex: Yo! Glad you decided to come by! The title actually DOES have something to do with the story! You just don't see it till next chapter! And I DO know where I'm taking it, I've had the whole story laid out from the start! So ha..oh! I have to come to your place and get that DVD..Amy must be mad ;.; but glad you like it! I heard about that story! It's out now? Tite! See ya later!
Bye everybody!
