Later on in the evening, Kyou and Kagura came back down to bid the household farewell. They mentioned something about taking their 'honeymoon' to the mountains. Hatori left with Hiro, Kisa, Momiji, and Haru. Momiji and Kisa put up a fight cause they wanted to stay with Tohru, but Hatori, Ayame, and Shigure ushered them out the door. Ayame and Shigure left for the main house as well.
"Newlyweds need their privacy!" Shigure had said with a wink at Yuki, who scowled in return while a blushing Tohru ignored the comment.
Kureno left to take Uo on their first date in about a year, while Hana bid Tohru farewell and left for home. Finally Ritsu went back to the Hot Springs resort, run by his mother, to spend some time with his family.
"Well, Tohru, looks like we've been left to hold down the fort for the time being.." Yuki muttered, a little flustered from Shigure's previous comment.
"Hai!" Tohru blurted out, still pink from the comment as well.
"Should we make some snacks and watch TV for awhile?" Yuki suggested with a smile.
"Sure, I'll get started on them!" Tohru returned the smile, relieved, as she rushed off into the kitchen.
Yuki sat by the TV while Tohru bustled about in the kitchen. Heavily, he sighed and tried to regain normal breathing, 'This is so awkward, must be for her as well. I know what's expected of us, but are we really ready?' He thought silently.
In the kitchen, Tohru jumped from cabinet to cabinet, getting ingredients and making some simple snacks for the two of them to share. 'Oh mother, I'm so nervous! Yuki and I are married now, and Kagura told me all about what's expected of newlyweds on their first night. I'm blushing just thinking of it, do I really want to do that with Yuki?' She spoke timidly to her mom. Finishing, Tohru walked, as calmly as she could, out to Yuki to watch TV with him. Yuki grinned and pulled Tohru into a warm embrace then kissed her nose as he accepted one of the cakes she made. Tohru blushed, yet smiled all the same as she snuggled in next to him. 'Maybe this will be alright mother; Yuki wouldn't take advantage of me. I know he won't!' Tohru thought with the same smile still on her face. The two watched TV for a few hours till about 6 in the evening. At that time, Tohru yawned as she began to slump into Yuki some more. Blushing, a bit, Yuki looked down upon her.
"Tohru, are you sleepy?" He asked quietly.
Immediately, she woke up, "Oh no! Not at all! We don't have to go to sleep!"
Yuki chuckled slightly and nuzzled Tohru's head affectionately, "Don' worry, if you're tired, I'll let you go to bed. Who knows, it might do me some good in the morning to go to bed early in the evening."
Tohru sighed, "I'm sorry, I'm very nervous Yuki."
"I know, and truthfully, so am I." Yuki smiled.
"Yuki, I would like to go to bed now, if you don't mind, I'm kind of tired." Tohru smiled sheepishly up at him as he helped her up.
"Okay then, I believe it would be a fine idea to get ready to sleep." Yuki agreed, they walked up the steps to their rooms.
Dressed in her sleepwear, Tohru re-emerged from her room to brush her teeth for the night and ran into Yuki, who was doing the same. With a smile, they both went to brush their teeth of the sweets together.
Tohru smiled, "Well, I guess I'll be off to bed now, good ni-i-achoo!"
Yuki chuckled, "Are you alright Tohru?"
"Yes, I'm fine, I guess it's just a little cold, that's all." She replied.
"You're right, it is a bit chilly, are you sure you'll be warm enough?" Yuki cast a worried glance at her.
"I'm strong! I'll beat this cold weather! But-oh! Yuki, your Bronchi! Are you sure you'll be able to sleep in such cold conditions??" Tohru suddenly reflected his worry.
"Hmm, I guess we have a problem; being alone in this house, it's pretty cold.." Yuki muttered thoughtfully.
Tohru fidgeted slightly, 'I know I'm nervous about the 'wedding night ceremony' but Yuki's right, we'll both probably catch cold or worse alone. I wish now that I had ignored Shigure's protests when I tried to fix the door after Ayame fell through it…'
Yuki noticed the blush come over her cheeks and the way her hands fiddled with the sleeves of her sleeping shirt as she gazed at the ground, and he had a pretty good idea of why, 'She's still scared of me…' He thought dismayed.
Yuki coughed a bit as Tohru looked up, 'Come on, it won't be so bad, you're married now, you'll just be sleeping in the same bed for warmth, nothing else!'
"Erm, Yuki?" Tohru finally looked up from the ground, meeting his gaze as her blush deepened slightly.
"Yes?" Yuki replied as he had turned to dry his hands.
"It's cold sleeping alone tonight, so, um, if you want you could… Sleep in my bed, with me? I-I mean, we could keep each other warm! And.. well my bed is quite big and comfortable…" By now she was as red as ripe strawberries; her heart was racing and thundering in her head.
"If it's alright with you, I'll accept, but if you're not quite sure about it, I'll also understand that." Yuki replied, blushing as well.
"No, Yuki, I think I'm okay with it. I wouldn't have suggested the idea if I wasn't at least halfway alright with it." Tohru smiled shyly.
"Alright then, Tohru, I accept. I promise that I'll sleep only where and how close you tell me though as well." Yuki returned her smile.
"O-okay" Tohru stammered slightly, leading Yuki into her room with flushed cheeks.
Safely in the confines of her room, Yuki took the time to admire it. It really had grown a bit more feminine since she had first moved in with them, and he had to admit, her bed did look a lot more comfortable than his. Tohru was on her bed moving the pillows around to accommodate two bodies instead of one, and as soon as she finished, she pulled back the covers and smiled up at him.
"Okay Yuki, it's ready!"
"Um, okay, which side should I take?" He asked innocently.
"Hmm, if you'd like, you may take the side furthest from the wall, since drafts sometimes come through the closed window." Tohru offered, climbing into bed near the wall.
Yuki awkwardly climbed in beside her with a concerned look on his face, "You should have told us you're window lets in drafts. We'll have to get this fixed, it's not acceptable!"
"It's alright Yuki, really! ^-^" Tohru tried to reassure him, "I usually sleep in the middle anyway, so it doesn't really bother me.
Yuki stopped breathing for a second, 'Funny… I thought I heard movement outside…' His eyes narrowed suspiciously as he continued to make himself comfortable.
"Are you warmer now?" Tohru ventured quietly.
"Yes, thank you!" Yuki replied with a smile.
"Goodnight Yuki!" Tohru called.
"Goodnight Tohru" Yuki replied softly, kissing her gently.
As he lay there for a few more seconds he could have sworn he heard whispering…
"Shh, you're being too loud!"
"Just shut up, will ya?!"
"Yes yes! He has eyes like a hawk, and ears like.. well, a mouse! ^-^"
"I don't really think they're doing anything…"
"I'm just making sure, he may be married but that doesn't give him special privileges!"
"Erm, actually, it kinda does…"
"Shut up you!"
"Ahh, manly romance is blossoming today!"
"My love..."
Yuki's eyes narrowed nearly to slits as he realized what was going on. 'Those perverts… well if it's a show they want, then I guess we'll have to perform…' He turned back towards Tohru and scooted a bit closer to her.
Tohru stirred in her semi-sleep and blinked at the interesting look in Yuki's eyes, "Uh, Yuki?"
In an instant, he grabbed her waist and held her dangerously close to himself for Tohru's comfort, he bent towards her ear and she could feel his warm breath softly.
'Oh no mother! What's happening; what's wrong with Yuki?!' Tohru screamed mentally.
Tohru blushed as she felt the air flow blowing in a consistent pattern against her sensitive ear change to gusts of air as Yuki whispered, "Relax Tohru, I'm just giving our nosy relatives something to gawk at, I apologize for any discomfort I have put you in."
Tohru felt at least a little better, she smiled a small smile and nodded.
Yuki grinned devilishly as he captured Tohru's lips in his own. The passion was there but Tohru went with it, she understood, and part of her relished in the slight trick they were playing on her friends.
"Hey! Things have gotten a bit too quiet in there!"
"Maybe they're asleep?"
"Or maybe Yuki has her gagged…"
"Shut up, ya damn cow! Who the hell made you go black!?"
"Nothing, it's my time of the month…"
"Huh?! What the hell is wrong with you?!"
"Shhhh they can hear us!"
"I wanna see, is the romance happening yet??"
"Manly romance, manly romance!"
"Hey! Stop pushing back there! I'm trying to listen!"
"Kyou-Kyou's a pervert, Kyou-Kyou's a pervert!"
"Am not!"
"Kyou! How dare you! Our children will not be raised on porn!"
"What the hell are you talking about! ARGH!"
The door suddenly burst from its track as several soumas spilled into the lightened room.
Yuki jerked his head up in feigned shock and anger, then squinted as light painfully entered his dilated pupils. By now he was halfway stratling the semi-startled Tohru.
"Hey, do you mind?" He growled.
"You damn rat! How dare you take advantage of her like that?!" Kyou roared from the bottom of the pile.
"Oh Yuki! My dear brother is experiencing everything manly romance has to offer!" Ayame exclaimed with stars shimmering in the background.
"Oh my, I never thought you'd actually do it, Tohru!" Kagura gaped, blushing at barging in on her.
"Hmm.. all this and not one moan of pleasure, he hasn't even removed her clothes yet…" Shigure commented.
"Hm, very true, Gure.. Maybe my dear brother needs assistance…" Ayame added.
"Assistance my ass! You'll do no such thing!" Haru shouted.
Yuki: growled again and stood up from the bed, "Out! All of you, GET OUT!"
"Eep…" Tohru meeped, 'Yuki's a good actor!'
"Aww, but Yuki! You were so fun to watch!" Shigure whined.
"How long have you been watching us?!" Yuki roared.
"Baka, now you did it!" Kyou muttered.
"And you! Weren't you supposed to be in the mountains with your bride doing who the hell knows what?!" Yuki pointed accusingly at Kyou, who adverted his gaze.
"We finished!" Kagura Supplied.
"Ack!" Kyou choked, turning redder than Tohru.
"Go Kyou!" Shigure Whooped.
"Didn't know you had it in you, baka neko…" White haru muttered with a smirk.
"What are you smirking at you stupid cow!?" Kyou snarled.
"GET OUT OF HERE!" Yuki screamed, jumping off the bed like a rabid badger.
"Yikes! Fun's over, I think we'd better run!" Shigure yelped, trying to pull himself from the pile.
"Oh shit, he really means it this time!" Kyou hissed in surprise, he too tried to escape.
"Yuki! Come give your big brother a hug!" Ayame gushed, still in his bubbly-dreamland.
"Idiot! Snap out of it and get the hell off of us! Yuki's out for blood!" Haru rumbled.
"Hell, screw this!" Kyou exploded and soumas flew everywhere as he grabbed Kagura and fled.
Shigure was hot on his heels, as was Haru; However, Ayame lunged for his brother's affection and was awarded with pummlement and a flight out Tohru's window.
Brushing off his hands, Yuki turned off the hall light and walked back to Tohru's bed. There, he was met with uncertain blue orbs.
Yuki grinned as he pulled back the covers and settled back into his original spot.
"Um Yuki…" Tohru asked meekly.
"Yes Tohru?" Yuki replied.
"Umm, could you scoot a bit closer? You broke my window, and now.. I'm kind of cold…" Tohru stuttered.
Yuki nodded and pulled Torhu to him in a soft embrace. He let her get comfortable with him before falling into sweet slumber.
"Mm, much better, Arigato." Tohru whispered as she, too, drifted off.

Hey guys! Merry Christmas!!! ^-^ For my loyal fans, this be my Christmas gift to you! I really hope you enjoyed it and I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! I know I did, I got to watch the first two Fruits Basket DVD's dubbed (it was horrible, really, but having the DVD's for Christmas was awesome.) Yes yes, I do not like those dubbed voices, and I advise noone to watch dubbed fruits basket! The English character voices do not do the characters justice, especially Shigure's, all humor was lost ;-; Okay, enough of my pathetic snivling. I'm doing this because the DVD's got me into a Fruits Basket-y mood and because I love you all so much, I thought you deserved a Christmas present too; and what better gift from me than this, eh? Hehehehe don't despair, I have one or two more left to go on this! Who knows, I might get another chapter done before my break is over even! ^-^ now it's time to answer my reviewers!

DarkPheonix365- lol, so, how are those braces doing, my friends had the rubber band thing too, they said it hurt like hell! ^-^; I'm very sorry for the pain you must have gone through! I'm also flattered by your praises! It was also easy for me to see Tohru as a Fox animal, so frail and delicate. My other thought was making her a wolf, but I thought the wolf was too big and physically powerful for her sweet character, so I went with the fox! ^-^ I'm very glad you approved. Hope the holidays made you smile a lot, and I hope this does too! ^-^ Merry Christmas!
Kaoru4- hehe, used to be?? I'm currently obsessed with the show, Kenshin and Kaoru are so cute! ^-^ though Kaoru can be a bit whiny sometimes, it just adds humor to the show. Sano and Yahiko have to be my favorite characters of that show thought! ^-^ Thanks for reviewing, and Merry Christmas! ^-^ Stay cheery!
Rei Souma- I didn't hear back from you since chapter 2, but I hope you didn't get bored and scamper off now… oh well, Thanks for reviewing anyway, Merry Christmas!
SsjGoddessChico- ^-^ that's good! Yes, 18 is rather young, and that's probably why I was making them so apprehensive about the 'wedding night' ^-^ I think it turned out pretty good though. Thank you for sticking with this fic for the bumpy ride I've put it through, and Merry Christmas to you too! ^-^
Grape- Hehehe I'm glad! Although, it's not over yet, so stay plugged into this one, I'm not ready to let it rest yet. Hope your Christmas was merry as well!

Hehe I guess you know what Kyou and Kagura were doing now, eh? I really hope this chapter was humerous for you guys! I enjoyed writing it! Merry Christmas Ms. Mistress and crew!
C.B.- *giggles* I guess I can understand that, what amazes me is the fact that you're in college. I wonder if the majority of fanfic goers here are college level or higher? Hehe I'm only a Sophomore in high school myself! ^-^ I realize my updates have been far and few lately, but you know how it is with school ^-^;; plus we currently have only one computer, since mine decided to die on me. *sigh* Rest in peace Computer-san u.u I had a ton of laughs while writing the wedding scene, I must have had the giggles or something. Oh and thanks for the news of Kureno, you wouldn't happen to know about how many Fruits Basket Manga volumes there are would you? Well, if you do, that's great! Merry Christmas!
Grrl N- hmm an Arisa/Kureno fan?? ^-^ Tis okay, we shall learn together! *prays the manga to come out sooner* please please please please! Numerous reviewers commented on Kyou's runaway scene; I personally liked the comment that shigure threw in the best ^-^ I hope you have a very Merry Christmas and to hear back from you soon!
