~-~-~ Dreams and Thoughts ~-~-~
Tohru was asleep for some time, in a dream she really didn't want to wake up from. From the time mom was alive, from the time dad was alive, when they were all together, as the family they once were.
Tohru looking back on her old memories as her formal self, watching all of them play ball in the front yard. The leaves were falling with grace and the crisp autumn air was welcoming.
"Dad! Dad! Pass it here dad!" The young Tohru yelled across the yard.
Tohru's dad chuckled. Her dad was a very tall handsome man with deep brown eyes and the same dark hair as hers. His laugh was gentle, and warm, it was so warm it could warm the hearts of many, even if their hearts were made of ice, or if the months were cold and dreary.
He gently passed the ball to young Tohru. Who was so very proud that she caught it she was jumping up and down with the ball so happy and cheerful.
Silent tears passed down Tohru's cheeks as she watched her old memories. Not tears of sadness but tears of happiness and joy. She had been so lucky so fortunate to have a mom and dad who loved her. To of had a family. A home that she belonged in, a house that was theirs.
Everything in her memory froze as it began to fade away. Tohru felt herself twirling and spinning getting dizzier and dizzier. And finally it stopped and she opened her eyes. Only to reveal another memory, the one after her dad died, one of her saddest memories of all.
"Tohru, Tohru honey don't cry. Daddies in a better place now and he isn't in pain any more. Tohru even if it is impossible find the good in people, don't let anything hold you back. Be a good person and stick with it, help others and in the end you will be rewarded." Tohru's mother told her as she held the crying child by her waist.
"I . . . .I promise mom, but for dad, I will.I will be a good person. to make you proud of me dad, I will . . . .I promise." The young Tohru said with tears flowing out of her eyes in large amounts.
Tohru's mom began to walk away from her fathers' grave with the young Tohru. Both, feeling the loss of him.
Now her mother would have to get a job or they would be evicted from their house, Tohru's first home. But as they walked away young Tohru's tears began to fade. As so did they in an odd gray mist.
"Mom! Don't leave!" Tohru cried. She tried to run after them but was lost in the mist. Suddenly she fell to her knees unable to take it anymore.
"Please," Tohru whispered. "Please don't make me see mom's grave too. I don't want to see, I want to go home MY home, were I belong." She sobbed. At once she heard footsteps, they were getting louder by the minute, but Tohru didn't look up. Tears lingered in her eyes as the footsteps stopped beside her. She looked up only to see some one she didn't expect to see.
"Tohru," the soft voice asked. "Tohru honey why are you crying?" The voice said again. Tohru couldn't believe it, she blinked a few times releasing the tears as she leapt into her mothers arms in a tight embrace.
"Mom!" Tohru cried. "Mom! I thought I'd never see you again, I missed you so much!"
" I know Tohru." Tohru's mom said as she gently stroked her daughters' hair. "I missed you too."
Tohru continued to cry, so happy to see her mother again. It had been so long, and she rarely dreamt of her mother. She missed her mother so much, she missed her soothing voice, her hugs, her very existence. It had just been so long.
"Tohru, Tohru look at me." Her mother said. Tohru looked up at her mother with full attention.
"Tohru, do you remember what I told you when your father died? I told you not to be sad. Not to cry, and if you wanted to cry I wanted you to cry tears of happiness, not sadness. Do you understand Tohru?" her mother said in a soft voice.
"Yes, mom. It's just. it's just I missed you so much!" Tohru sobbed.
"Yes I know Tohru. But don't be sad over me, don't cry over me, and most of all don't think that you are alone, deep down you still believe that. You have a family, just because all of us aren't their doesn't mean we still don't all love you. I see you made a new home and another family Tohru, take care of them and cherish them. Do you understand?" her mother finished.
"Yes mom I understand." Tohru said as she dried her tears.
"If you do then don't be sad for me. Don't cry. All right. You do have a family who cares for you even if you all aren't related." Tohru's mom said.
Tohru nodded her head. And then smiled at her mother. "I understand mom, thank you so much."
The mist began to clear and a beautiful meadow filled with flowers appeared. Out of nowhere three figures appeared. Shigure, Yuki, and Kyo. Who were waiting for Tohru on the other side of the meadow.
"Tohru I love you so much. But I need you to feel happy for me, not sad. I also need you to join your new family that you've made." Tohru's mom said to her.
"I love you too mom!" Tohru said with a smile. "And I promise from now on I'll remember you, and that your happy." Tohru said as her and her mom hugged one last time.
Then in the meadow her mom disappeared back into the mist. And the mist disappeared from the meadow. Instantly, Shigure, Yuki, and Kyo were by her side. As they would be forever as her new family.
Kyo was so deep in thought that everything was just so confusing. He thought over and over about the events of the day. He felt so bad about what happened to Tohru, but he felt a weird feeling fluttering inside him when he looked into her eyes. Those deep eyes like an ocean, eyes he could let himself drown in.
'What is this feeling?' Kyo thought. He had felt no feelings like this before. He had felt many different varieties of feelings, anger, rage, temperament, happiness, being scared half to death, curiosity * a lot of curiosity *, depression, and joy.
But it felt like something was missing from those many varieties of feelings, one that fitted in perfectly. Something he hadn't felt or experienced before.
Kyo felt a soft breeze on his face as his eyes opened slowly. The sun was beginning to set. As the clouds lazily floated by, soft and calm, yet so far away from the bright orange sun. Tohru was like a cloud, bright and fluffy, full of emotions, full of spirit, and happiness. Kyo, Kyo was the sun, bright with rage, yet calm like Tohru.
Kyo decided to go Tohru one of these days and confess to her every thing. Everything he thought about, everything he was feeling, the strange fluttering sensation, everything, even if he was shy. He would tell her, he had to.
Kyo let his thoughts engulf him once more as he closed his eyes to ponder peacefully as the clouds drifted by and the sun set slowly on the horizon, releasing it's calm red orange glow on the clouds.
Yuki was in his garden, planting a new bunch of strawberries for Tohru. It was a sorry gift for her, although he would of planted them any ways for her because she loved them so much. Yuki had also thought of the days' events over and over.
Tohru was amazing, he thought that when he first officially met her that night when he found out she was living in a tent. He would of never of known how much this feeling would of grown after that night and to continue through out the months.
Yuki, deep down felt pride in her, happy about her, her smile, the way her bright eyes were lit up with life. Everything about her, his feelings in her grew as the months went bye. And deep down he felt a feeling like none other.
The fan girls would praise him, girls would flock to him, yet he had never felt this feeling before. He had no idea what it was, but this feeling, unlike the rest was welcoming to him, fully accepting and understanding, like Tohru.
