Full Moon Curse:

Poor Yuki

Yuki was relieved that the graduation trip was over. It had been incredibly boring. He loved spending time with Tohru, but he hadn't realized how much excitement Kyou brought to their time together, and he couldn't wait to fight his rival and exchange nasty remarks.

The bus had arrived back at the school several hours earlier than expected. Tohru planned to go shopping with Hana and Uo, but Yuki couldn't wait to get home, so he opted out.

He practically ran up to the house, planning exactly what he would say to piss Kyou off enough to provoke a fight. He stopped at the door and took a deep breath. He definitely didn't want to appear eager. When he entered his face had its usual blank expression, but it changed as he listened to the conversation in the other room.

"I love it," Shigure's voice said. "Aaya did a great job with you."

"When I saw it, I knew it would be exactly what you wanted," Kyou answered back, his voice slightly higher than usual.

Yuki walked in to see Kyou wearing a green and white plaid school girl uniform with a short skirt and knee high socks. His red hair had been put into two tiny pigtails and he was currently straddling Shigure who was sitting in a chair with both his hands up the cat's skirt. Kyou's lips were brushing his neck.

Shigure's eyes widened. "Oh, Yuki-Kun, you're home early."

Yuki felt dizzy.

When Yuki came to, he was looking up Kyou's short pleated skirt. He immediately covered his eyes with his arm. The cat wasn't wearing any underwear.

"Eeh," Yuki moaned. He turned his head away to find Shigure kneeling beside him. "Eew…" he groaned again turning back. Kyou was looming above him with his hands on his hips and his little pigtails sticking up from his head. Yuki was sure he was going to be sick.

"What's your problem, sissy boy? Man, you fainted like a little girl," Kyou smirked at his cousin.

"You did not just say that." Yuki was incredulous.

"I did, you damn rat. What are you going to do about it?"

"Eh…" Yuki answered turning to Shigure.

"It wasn't what it looked like," Shigure said flippantly, "I'm just researching…for a book."

"I'm going to pretend I believe that." Yuki let out a long breath.

"I don't give a damn what he believes," Kyou said coldly.

"Now, Kyou-kun, we don't want to scare anyone now, do we?"

Kyou's cheeks flushed slightly. "Ashamed, asshole?"

"Of course not. There's nothing to be ashamed of because there's nothing going on," Shigure said pointedly. His tone confirmed Yuki's worst fears.

"Oh, isn't there?" Kyou crossed his arms. "So it really is just about sex. Even though you know how I feel. Bastard."

"Is this a joke?" Yuki wasn't hopeful. The only time he'd seen Kyou look this passionate was while fighting him, or looking at Tohru when she was spacing out.

"Yes, yes, that's what it is," Shigure laughed wildly. "Isn't our joke funny, Yuki? Hehehe, we really had you going."

Kyou's eyes narrowed wickedly. "He told me that if I didn't sleep with him he'd let Akito put me in the cage. When I wear this little number, he calls me Tohru."

Yuki didn't think before attacking Shigure who yelped at the impact. Yuki looked over in time to see Kyou smiling smugly at the sight of Shigure being strangled by a far from collected Yuki. He had a creeping suspicion that he was somehow being used.

"Okay, that's enough, you damn rat. I think he's learned his lesson. Hey, prick, I said that's enough." Something about Kyou's tone and the insane situation he had walked in on caused Yuki to release his victim.

Shigure coughed a few times, holding his neck. "I thought you loved me," he said between gasps for air.

Kyou raised an eyebrow before giving Shigure a sexy smile which made the hair on the back of Yuki's neck stand on end. This was not Kyou.

"Gure," came a voice from the doorway. "Is everything still going okay?" Hatori stopped dead in his tracks. Haru stood wide eyed beside him.


"I'm extremely disappointed in you." Hatori tried to make his tone as forceful as possible, but he had a hard time being too angry with Shigure. The writer was who he was.

Kyou had gone upstairs to change. Yuki was seated across from them on the couch his face unusually pale. Haru had moved to sit beside him and had put an arm around his favorite cousin. His fingers were gently brushing Yuki's shoulder and in the absence of the usual protests from his older cousin, Haru grew bold and began brushing his fingers on Yuki's face.

Hatori turned away in disgust. Why was everyone in his family so…gay?

Shigure fidgeted uncomfortably, and Hatori could tell he felt guilty about whatever had happened between the two of them. Not that Hatori couldn't guess.

Haru was now running his fingers through Yuki's silky, silvery hair. "Why?" he asked simply.

Hatori decided it would be best for his friend's safety to let everyone in on the curse of the cat.


Yuki walked listlessly to his room with Haru on his heels. So the cat had yet another curse. That brought Kyou up to three, and his one paled in comparison. And Shigure, Yuki was sure it couldn't be worse. The real Kyou would be mortified. Although he guessed it was still the real Kyou in a way, he just loved Shigure and had become his play thing. Yuki was angry with the dog, but supposed his response wasn't unexpected.

Someone suddenly embraced him from behind.

"Haru, do you mind?" Yuki asked calmly.

"I missed you," Haru whispered into his ear.

Yuki sighed.

"I came here to wait for you, but you were already home."

"I guess that's obvious." Yuki hated the annoyance that had crept into his tone.

Haru nuzzled his face into Yuki's back. "So glad you're home." His voice was muffled.

"Haru, did you not hear what Hatori said? Kyou is in love with Shigure because of some idiotic curse, and you want to cuddle? For the last time, get off me and leave me the hell alone. I'm not interested!" Yuki hadn't meant to yell, but the stress had finally gotten to him. He pushed Haru away. "This is all your fault!" He was still yelling. "If you hadn't gotten into that stupid fight with him, this never would have happened."

Haru appeared hurt, and Yuki felt guilty. He had never spoken so harshly to Haru before and knew that he deserved it as he saw signs of Haru going black.

Soon he had been pushed back onto his bed with Haru on top of him. "You should be kissing me, you ungrateful rat."

Yuki snorted in response. He was used to this and knew he could restrain Black Haru if needed. "Oh, should I be, and why the hell is that?"

Haru looked at him smugly. "If I hadn't gotten into that fight, which member of the zodiac would have been closest to the cat on the night of the full moon?"

Yuki's eyes widened in horror, and he pulled Haru down and kissed him full on the mouth.


When Haru emerged from Yuki's room, he had a slight smile on his usually straight face. "Hatori, do you think we could stay a while longer? I don't think Yuki's well."

Hatori shrugged.

"Please say no!" Yuki's voice called from his room.

Haru's smile broadened.

Hatori lit another cigarette.

Shigure chuckled.

"Hey, everyone! I'm home. Hope you all don't mind that I went shopping. My friends insisted and…"

Shigure stood. "Oh, think nothing of it, dear, I'm just glad you've finally returned." He beamed brightly.

Hatori's heart rate increased as it did every time he saw Tohru. She had matured quite a bit since they had first met two years before and he was always surprised by her beauty. "Hello, Tohru, I hope you had a nice trip." He always sounded so rigid when he spoke with her. He wished he could sound more natural.

"I had a wonderful trip. Thank you so much for asking. She gave him a sweet smile which caused his heart to beat even faster.

"Too bad you didn't come home with Yuki." Haru said seriously. "You really missed out."

Hatori and Shigure glared at him.

"Oh, really, that's too bad." Tohru seemed confused by the suddenly heavy atmosphere. "Well, I better go unpack. Where's Kyou-kun?"

"Most likely on the roof sulking," Shigure answered cheerfully. "I'm sure he'll be thrilled to have you back."

"I think I better go and check on Yuki," Haru said sweetly before leaving the room with Tohru.

Shigure and Hatori sat in silence as they had for most of the day. After about ten minutes Shigure finally spoke.

"You don't think he'll actually tell her, do you?"

Hatori shrugged. No, normal Kyou would not tell the girl he was in love with that he was sleeping with his older cousin, but this Kyou was definitely not normal. "At this point, Shigure, nothing, and I mean nothing, would surprise me."

"Knock it off!" Yuki was yelling in his bedroom. "It meant nothing. It was just a kiss!"

Hatori exhaled and watched the smoke drift to the ceiling.


Yuki lay on his bed and stared into the darkness. He was not able to sleep. He was relieved that Haru and Hatori had finally left and also relieved that Tohru had already eaten so that he didn't have to feign normalcy during a family dinner. He hadn't seen either Shigure or Kyou since the hideous scene.

Contrary to popular belief, Yuki did not hate Kyou, or at least he didn't hate him enough to allow him to stay Shigure's sex toy. Hatori had said that Akito had remained ambiguous as to whether or not there was a way to break the curse and Yuki was trying to psyche himself out for the unthinkable: a visit to the source of his torture. He hoped he would be able to go through with it. He worried that the longer he waited, the worse off Kyou would become.
