A/N: When I wrote this I didn't realize it was so short oops! but it really holds up better on it's own then with the next chapter which is long, funny, and interesting I promise. This chapter is the necessary evil of my story, if I didn't put it in you'd be confused by the next chapter. This is cool though because now I can really talk to you guys. So how've you been? You're looking good is that a new haircut? I'd like to take this time to thank my loyal reviewers all two of you, Juri14 you rock! Knightsfairlady I haven't been ignoring your advice I've just been meditating on it. I get what you're saying about the "sentences" and the 'thoughts' that's just how I've always done it but in my next story I'll change it. Hey everyone else, you could stand to review a little more, joflower you're exempt from this finger wagging you've been reviewing lately too, but other than you three, I'm disappointed in you.

A/N 8/9/05: I've recently changed hopefully all thoughts so that they apear /like this/ instead of 'like this'


As Shigure walked Tohru down the stairs she could hear the shouts of Uo and Kyou "That's not fair you cheated!"

"It's not my fault that you suck at this game Orange-top."

"Ah-hem!" Shigure cleared his throat, and everyone looked up.

"Tohru, you look gorgeous!" Uo exclaimed.

"It seem our Tohru has blossomed into a beautiful young woman." Hana says, pleased.

"It's amazing Miss Honda, Hatori has made you even more lovely than ever." Yuki said, causing Tohru to blush.

"Wow!" Kyou said quietly to himself as he ducked out of the room. /I can't go dressed like this, I look like some bum off the street compared to her/

"I'll see you kids at the dance," Shigure announced "I have to go pick up my date!" and then as a last attempt to get everyone to pay attention to him "Ta-Ta everyone."

"Umm...Where did Kyou go?" Tohru asked.

"Who cares about that stupid cat, Miss Honda, this is your night and if he's too stubborn to let you have it with me, then we should just let him hide on the roof until it's over."

"The prince is right Tohru, don't let Orangey ruin this for you. We have to leave now if we're going to make it on time, we can't wait for him to get over his Yuki complex."

"Okay, let me just leave him a note." Tohru said reluctantly. /I hope he comes, the only thing that could make this night better would be sharing it with Kyou, even if he doesn't want to dance with me./


A/N: This is a really tiny chapter which goes to show you how big my handwriting is that I thought it would be long enough when I wrote it out.
