Disclaimer: If I have owned Fruit Baskets, Hanajima-san would have a lot more part on the series. So as you can see, I don't own Fruit Baskets.
Writer Apology: OK, you all might want to bite my head off for not updating for the last months, right? I'm really, really sorry. But I have a good reason for not updating. I was in the hospital for the last 3 months because I fell and hit my head into solid stone ground. I have to undergo some surgery that I'm sure you don't want to know about, so I was not able to do any writing at all during that time. I just got out 1 week ago, and tried to clear my head so I can finally post this chapter. Hopefully I won't have anymore accidents, you won't believe how horrible it was for me.
Explanations:
"…" talking out loud.
'…' thoughts.
…------- Setting change.
(…) Me, talking. (Don't bother reading if you don't care. I mean it, don't.)
(I won't be posting to items above in the following chapters; you should know it already, right?)
Chapter 3:Disturping Thoughts.
After school -------
"You're not ready yet?" Uo-chan asked the brown haired girl who is gathering her things. The bell had rang 5 minutes ago, and everyone had left, except for Uo-chan, Hana-chan, and Tohru.
"I'm sorry." Tohru said her apologies as she continue to gather her items. Uo-chan just sigh as she pull a chair and sit down. "You take too long to pack up, Tohru." "Ah… Really?" Tohru replied, after pausing a bit, with a question.
"Come to think of it…" A voice suddenly spoke. "Tohru-chan has always been the last one to leave the classroom, did she not?" It was from none other then the infamous psychic girl of the school, Hana-chan herself. "Hey, you're right." Uo-chan exclaim as she remember all those times. "Why, Tohru?" She asked, curious.
"Ah… well … I don't want to get in anyone's way while they exiting the class, since I was always so clumsy, so I guess… I just stay until everyone have left?" Tohru replied, nervously. "Oh, poor Tohru-chan." Hana-chan and Uo-chan both say at the same time as they give Tohru a hug. "I should have known." Hana-chan said softly as she releases her dearest friend. 'Tohru-chan, you are too kind.' She thought. Then her memory shifted back to what they were supposed to do.
When Hana-chan had found out that Kyo's injuries was much worse then she thought, she can't help but feel a bit guilty. 'I have always thought that he have a strong body, and should be able to withstand that fall easily.' She thought as she recall all those stuns he pulled before. 'I guess I forgot for a moment that he is a human being.' She smiled slightly inside her mind at that comment.
"Ok, let's go now! We can't let poor ol' orange head wait now, can we?" Hana-chan snapped back to reality when she heard the energetic voice of a certain blond in their group. "Yes, we should hurry. Yuki-kun won't be home soon today, he has a meeting, I think." Tohru replied, with almost the same energy, only weaker. With that, they left the school ground.
Shigure's Household. -------
Kyo, who is unaware of what about to happen, was lying in his bed. The headache had gone away, but his body is still numb, so he did not want to move anywhere yet. (Not that he can walk very good anyway.) Unable to sleep, he let his thoughts drift freely through his head.
Looking over the table, he saw the strawberry seeds that was entrusted to him by a certain raven haired girl. 'Humh… I forgot all about that.' He sighed, then remember something and reach in his right pocket, his hand touched a delicate fabric. His thoughts then shifted to Hana-chan.
'That girl sure is a strange one.' Just then, he start to remember all those times he was scared half to death by her. 'Who am I kidding? She's just plain scary. Why does someone like Tohru hang out with her?' He asked himself, then stop. Remembering all those times she had protected Tohru, (We all know how she do it, right? sweatdrops) sometime she can even be call over protective. 'I've heard about the violent girl's (referring to Uo-chan) story, but I know nothing about that girl's past. That girl's a mystery.'
He suddenly realized what he is doing, and mentally slap himself. 'Why am I thinking of electric girl all of a sudden? Maybe something is wrong with my head." He thought, and decides to take a small nap to clear his mind.
Fade out -------
There you have it, the 3rd chapter. I'm sorry that it was so short, but I think ending it there is good, so I did it. If I continue, it would be too long, so… well, I didn't. And I did add some SakiXKyo scene in this chapter. See? They thought about each other. What did you expect? They saying something like: " I think I'm in love?" Not a chance.
Wanted add: For disclaimer job of this fic, I'm tired from doing it. (I'm lazy.)

Replying to the reviewers:
Karou-Ken: Thank you very much, I'm gald people liked what I wrote. Please continue to review, and try to bear with me as the story proceeds.
Evil-nalia: Thank you tears tears
Al: Thank you for the short but meaningful review.
The Cheshire Katt: Agreed with you, but keep in mind that they barely have any relationship with each other, so this fic will go slow but steady with the rising of SakiXKyo's relationship.
MichaleaLove: Thank you, here's the update. (Read the top to find out why I haven't been updating.)
Kaiyokochan: If you have the time, I could use some help in grammar. Thank you for reading my fic.

Sneak Peak: Finally, they came to the house to visit Kyo. (They, referring to the trio: Hana-chan, Uo-chan, and Tohru.) Kyo's not having a good time. And might have a cute scene between Kyo and Hana-chan. (Heed the word: Might.)
