Ch. 3 'to go or not to go!'

Tohru's day had went by very well for the first day. Arisa and yuki were there to help her so it all worked out. a she only got lost two times.

But for the first day she did have a lot of homework. But she still couldn't get her mind off of the visit to shigure's house. She wanted to see how every one was doing and if they were keeping up well.

Last period went by slowly every second felt like an hour. Then the bell rang and the whole class gusted out of the room like a stampede, dodging tohru so sharply that she flinched each time someone pasted her.

But Arisa and yuki waited for her outside of the classroom so she wouldn't get lost. After picking up her things and saying good-bye to Arisa her and yuki started to walk home.

it was sort of new because the college was about a mile away from the house and neither her or yuki had a car or knew how to drive.

Plus she wasn't looking forward to biking with a skirt on, especially since yuki was there and she would soon be around shigure and kyo. No, she never forgot shigure's perverted ways, after all its kind of hard to.

and just wearing that skirt around him was enough since every time she bent over too far it showed her ass.

They talked about school as they came upon the house. It looked the same way, well except for the lack of cleanliness that used to be there when she had lived there.

and there was a truck in the drive way, she didnt think shigure ha a car, because she never saw one, but then again she was gone for a month.

Kyo was on the roof, like he always had. But he didnt notice her, he was too busy spacing out.

Yuki led tohru into the house .(with all the trash on the ground not even a pig could've found the entrance). Yuki tried to clean things up a bit the best he could, he had forgot of how messy the house was when he invited her.

tohru went into the kitchen and looked into the frig. nothing, not one speck of food was in the frig.there were some pieces of fish left in the freezer. And a box of cereal in the cabinet.

"Yuki, you guys haven't been living off of take out have you?"

"umm....sort of..."

".......Wow......"

"But sometimes kyo cooks, if he's ever bored enough to."

"...oh...."

Shigure pops his head into the kitchen. Surprising tohru who was right in front of him.

"tohru?"

"yes!...um..oh, shigure. Hi!"

"hello, what are you doing back so soon?"

"Um, well you see me and yuki are going to the same college, and he invited me to visit you. And I really wanted to see how you guys were doing. I mean I felt so guilty, Leaving you here to live off of ...'take out'..."

"Don't worry, were just glad to see you!"

Tohru smiles and looks around.

"Hey were is kyo?"

"Oh, he on the roof. I'll tell him you came."

"OK. thank you."

Shigure walks out of the kitchen and goes up to the roof. Yuki clears off a place to eat.

"Tohru would you like to go to the grocery market with me, to pick up something to eat for dinner?"

"Yeah, sure!"

Tohru walks with yuki holding his hand all the way to the store. This reminded her of something fimilar and sweet.

It was like their after noon walks together. or an adventure to find the base when the storm had hidden it under bunches of branches and leaves.

They went into the store and looked around. They picked up some rice and some fish and some other things.

when they get to the register line tohru decides to ask yuki something she had been thinking about ever since she left.

"Yuki, do you know why, when I left, why kyo never said 'good bye'? I mean its not that it really matters now but I was just wondering about it and I guess vie been wanting to know."

"i don't know maybe he just didnt want to admit to him self that you would be gone. So the best way of seeing it that way was acting as if you were just moving to a new room, or something. something that wouldn't effect him as much."

"Oh, and you have you been all right while I was gone?"

"Yeah, I mean the food isn't as good as it was when you were around but its fine. How have you been doing in that house of yours? are your neighbors nice ?"

"Yeah, they're really kind. But its not as good as shigure's house."

Yuki and tohru picked up the groceries and walked out after paying for the food. The walk home was silent, tohru was too busy thinking about what yuki said.

She knew her leaving would effect them all but she had always thought of kyo as a social thinker, a person that would tell her of what was on his mind.

But he didnt and that worried her, had they drifted farther apart?

When they got to the house it was very clean, yuki and tohru had only been out for an hour but shigure and kyo had help from ayame and kagura who wanted to see tohru as well.

Plus momiji was coming later on for dinner. And haru would be picking him up because he lived too far away to walk and he still didnt have his license. (But haru does!)

Tohru looked at the spotless kitchen which kagura had cleaned.

"Wow, its really spotless."

"Thanks. I tried my best! but tohru are you going to cook dinner all by your self?"

"Of course I don't think yuki can be trusted with food yet do you?"

"Nope, but ill help you. Its the least I can do for you since you came here and you still have to make dinner."

"OK. lets start then "

Tohru and kagure start making dinner while yuki makes the table and ayame watches over tohru while she cooks, telling her about the things that she missed and how much the boys had moped around after she had left.

Tohru and kagure started to put the food on the table as the bell rings and momiji and haru walks in greeting tohru warmly. Momiji gives tohru a bracelet.

"here tohru, its a good bye present. i didnt get it to you before because i lost it and then i forgot were you lived but now here you are so, good bye ....i mean hello. "

"Thanks its so cute. Im sorry I didnt give you my address. But I gave it to kyo, yuki and shigure."

"Yeah but when I asked kyo snatched it away and wouldn't give it to me."

Tohru looked over at kyo who was arguing with ayame because of the dress he wanted to put tohru in.

"Kyo why did you that? Momiji just wanted to give me the bracelet."

"Are you crazy? he's more likely to sneak in while your bathing and seduce you, then just give you a 'bracelet,' stop being so damn gullible!"

"why are you yelling?"

kyo looked at her for a moment, he really didnt know why he yelled at her.

maybe it was the timing. after all he had been trying to do something for her by not letting ayame dress her in the 'garment' that he wanted her to try on.

and be sides how did she expect him to remember every little thing about when she left. he would rather forget about it and move on.

There was silence in the room for a moment until shigure walked in.

"Oh, well. Lets not allow tohrus great cooking to go to waste, lets eat!"

Kagure waits for her compliment as the group walks in the dinning room.

"Hey what about me?! I helped too!"

"Yes, but every one here knows without tohrus help you would have burned all the food."

"Shigure you bastard, take that back. At least I know how to cook."

"Yes, you know how to cook t.v. dinners. What talent you have!"

The two continue fighting as the others sit down and start eating. Momiji stands up to propose a toast.

"i want to propose a toast to tohru!"

Every one lifts up their glasses. Then continues eating.

tohru didnt really understand why kyo was acting so strange, was it because she left? or when she left had he got used to her not being around and her sudden visit shake him up?

she used to be able to talk to him about these things but today, she felt as if they had just met and she had done some thing wrong to him. it made her sad.

to feel like she had lost a dear friend, someone that she was very close to. And for some reason she knew this problem, though as small as it seemed, wouldn't be straitened out just by a simple talk.

After dinner haru came to pick up momiji but momiji didnt want to leave because the rest were going to watch a movie, so haru and momiji stayed a bit longer.

Haru sat next to tohru as shigure got pop corn and soda for every one.

"So, tohru, I heard you got a place, how is it?"

"Um, really great. I live just two blocks away from my friend and the landlord is very kind and easy going. how are you?"

"OK, I guess. You should've seen yuki and kyo when you left. they were heartbroken."

"really..."

"Yeah, kyo wouldn't come down from the roof and yuki kept to himself."

"How would you know?"

"I came over to help clean out your room."

"Did I really leave that big of a mess?!"

"No, it was small. I also came over to say good bye to you. but I came too late and when I got to house you weren't there."

"Im sorry, I should've called you."

"No, its all right. I shouldn't have been so late."

"thanks any way. How did the others take me leaving?"

"well hatter didnt really seemed surprised and ayame kept saying that shigure was pulling our leg and you were hiding around in the house some where. momiji kept coming over to shigure's house to visit. kisa was a little worried, she thought that kyo or shigure had done something to you and that's why you left. and hiro didnt really care until he found out that kisa was so worried about you that she was crying her self to sleep at night."

"she did? I wouldn't have left if I knew that every one would be so sad!"

"you didnt make every one sad, hiro didnt seem to mind."

"Still poor kisa, I know ill go see her first thing tomorrow!"

"You have school tomorrow."

"Oh, yeah."

Shigure walks in with the food and movie.

"OK, movie time."

After shigure puts the movie in, him and ayame go out to buy some food for the house.

Tohru didnt expect her move to be such a big depression for the sohma family. She thought it would be just as if she was changing rooms or something.

and now that she knew that every one (not including hiro.) was sad about her departure, she almost felt like she wanted to move back in.
