ch. 1 'peddles in the wind '

They swirled around, like feathers in the sky. The peddles were pink, cherry blossoms that had just fallen. tohru laid under them, one eye closed to make sure she didn't get something in her eyes.

A peddle landed on her nose, then it slipped down and fell on her lips. She blew it up, high into the air and watched it fall back on her nose again. she giggled as it repeated its previous task of falling on her lips.

The sun shined bright as the clouds rolled by quickly. The sky was a bright blue and the wind was as crisp as a summer rain. tohru watched as another peddle fell. A bird flew by landing on the branch across from her. she looked up at it and started talking to it, silently to herself.

Yuki walked over and stood over her. She flung her hands up grasping his as he helped her up. he brushed a peddle off of her hair as they smiled at each other and went inside to eat lunch.

every day was like a dream in the Sohma house. as she ate lunch she was reminded of all the wonderful moments she had spent in the house. all the moments that made up the house. because a house is not a house when it is first made, its just a structure. but when the people who live there spend a part of their lives in that house, and share theirs moments with that house. All the moments, whether they be good or bad, then it becomes a house. A house full of happiness or despair.

And as she looked around while eating, she saw the people she shared those memories and moments with. They meant so much to her and she didn't want to leave them. they were her new family, a family that would never fade.

After she finished lunch she went in the kitchen to put the dishes away. That night was her birthday, and with her birthday narrowing down, she couldn't get any happier. kyo had made lunch and breakfast for her and tonight all the sohmas (besides akito.) that she knew would be coming over to celebrate her birthday. Which made her even more happy.

Just to know that they knew she was there and to know that they wanted to make her part of them, part of them as a big family. Even hiro was coming, which made her glad. the house was going to packed tonight. And the person in charge of everything was tohru.

Shigure had told her that she was going to be in charge, even if she wanted the most bizarre thing, he promised he would get it for her. Tohru had told him not to, and wasn't planning on something this big, but when shigure told ayame about her birthday, it spread around so quickly. every one wanted to come. And she couldn't really say no.

And for the first time she had seen kyo and yuki get along. That day they promised not to fight or argue. but kyo said the second that day was over he didn't have to get along with yuki, and started to yell something about beating the crap out of him.

Tohru had butterflies in her stomach. She was so excited about the whole celebration. the boys had decorated the whole house for her special day. The house was full of balloons and streamers ayame had even stopped by and gave her a dress he made especially for the party.

Kagure and kisa were going to come over before the party to do her hair and help her with the cooking. Kyo was also told to help, because he was the only one of the boys that could cook. but tohru insisted upon doing the cooking, since the boys had already done so much for her.

after tohru finished doing the dishes, shigure told her to get ready for the party. kagure was on her way to pick up kisa, so she went and got dressed in Ayame's custom made dress. it was a light blue with long sleeves. a dress fit for a princess. it was soft and conferrable, the lace on the end of the sleeves were even soft.and it was made of silk and satin.

He had even bought her special shoes for the dress. Even though it was disrespectful to were your shoes in the house, ayame told her to were them since she was the birthday girl. she finished dressing and started to brush her hair.

When kagure and kisa came, they welcomed her with a hug. And as they brushed and curled her hair, a musicbox was playing. the music box, was something she always liked. It never had any verses to remember and it tune would always stay the same.

she watched the music box as it twirled a cat chasing a mouse inside the tiny water globe around in a circle. its playful sound was a happy song in some ways, but in others it was sad. it reminded her of yuki and kyo. and at that moment she realized that she was growing up. and sooner or later she would be graduating and then what? would she stay at shigures house? or would she go with yuki or kyo?

And what would happen to them? Would they disappear in the world, for her never to see them again? tohru frowned at the thought of it, then a tear rolled down her cheek. Kisa cocked her head to the side and blinked her eyes a few times.

"why are you crying sissy? Are you hurt?"

"Um.. No. I'm fine," tohru said as she wiped the tear from her eye and smiled to show she was OK.

"Don't worry kisa, I just think tohru is realizing it."kagure looked at tohru. She knew that face. It was the same she had when she had her birthday. When she first realized it.

"You see kisa, you don't notice how fast your world is going until you get older and see something that reminds you. It happened to me too, when I was Tohru's age . (remember kagure is two years older then tohru.)"

"What happened?"

"When you are younger you don't see it, you just think your life is going just as it always had. Like a wheel. but it doesn't when you get older you realize, not everything is going to stay the same. And if its at the point, then you start crying because you think of the future and forget about all the time you have left until then."

Tohru looked at kagure. Kagure smiled a bit.

"you see, when this happened to me, i thought about what would happen between kyo and i. so i started to cry. because i thought of all the bad things and didn't mind about all the time i had, because even though time goes fast, there's always time to make up your mind and build on what you want to happen. but at that moment, your sad, because you finally realize that this, where we are right now, will not last forever. and that it will end. "

Kisa looked at tohru who had a tear on her cheek. Then she smiled.

"Its OK sissy, they wont leave you alone, because they are not like that. Even thought one or the other might not seem to care about you, sissy. they both care deeply for you and I'm sure ... neither of them would let you fade away."

Kagure clapped her hands and held up a mirror to tohru, so she could she her hair. Then at once her and kisa said.

"how'd we do?!"
