I do not own Fruits Basket or its characters
This is my first fan fiction, so I'm very excited. In the manga, Tohru's eyes are brown, but in the anime, they are blue. I am going off the manga. If you have any tips, suggestions, or questions, please review or email me. No flaming please, although constructive criticism is accepted. This will probably be a Yukiru fan fiction, or a Yukyoru but I dunno yet. Thank you. -

Let's Stay Together…Always
Chapter 2Secret Base
The sound of soft footsteps could be heard as Tohru made her way to the secret base. "Ne, Yuki-kun?" he heard her ask. "Honda-san! Arigatou gozaimasu for coming out here. I'm almost finished planting." Tohru's face lit up. "Really? What are you planting now, Yuki-kun?" She walked over to him and kneeled down beside the new plant. "It's a raspberry plant. I thought it would go great along with the other strawberry plants," Yuki smiled. Tohru nodded, a big grin plastered on her face. "I absolutely LOVE strawberries! Raspberries are delicious too! Oh, and blueberries, watermelon, bana--" she started, but didn't finish. Yuki had leaned close to her, his face only inches from hers. Tohru blushed brightly as he continued to come closer. His hand caressed her cheek as he placed a kiss on her forehead and was about to kiss her on the lips until he glanced at Tohru. Yuki blushed as he looked at her red face and stunned brown eyes.
"T-Tohru, I-I…arigatou…" he mumbled, face down. "BAKA!" Yuki's head screamed, "Baka, baka, baka! Tohru might not even like me! Why did I do this! Now we may not have such a friendly status anymore! Baka, ba--" he was stopped as he felt a warm hand on his chin. "Tohru?" The hand lifted up his chin, allowing him to stare into his one-and-only's deep brown eyes. "He called me Tohru…" she thought, smiling. Tohru lifted her other hand, and brushed it through his silvery locks, blushing madly the whole time. She too, began to lean in closer, her heart pounding like crazy. Doki, doki, doki! The sound of two beating hearts was heard to the two teens. Yuki, ecstatic that Tohru seemed to feel the same way, blindly rushed the moment and kissed her as he entwined his fingers with hers. With his other hand, he placed it behind her neck, therefore bringing her too close. POOF!
Tohru blushed hundreds of shades of red. Without him leaning on her, and her on him, she toppled over, still careful not to crush Yuki. She laced her arms around her body, softly laughing from the fact that Yuki had rushed in, his eyes happily dancing. The kiss that lasted no more than 3 seconds was enjoyable and passionate. She smiled, stifling her laughter, and looked at the blushing nezumi.
"Heaven…," Yuki thought, "Yupp, that's where he was." Tohru's kiss made his day, maybe even his year! Passionate, sweet; all of Tohru was in that one brief kiss. It only tempted him to kiss her again, but he just decided to lay across from her and look at his perfect girl. POOF! Another poofing sound was heard as Yuki changed back. Tohru blushed, but continue to stare at his face. She wondered "How the rest of the day would turn out…would Shigure notice…?" A thought crossed her mind. "O, my gosh! Breakfast!" she yelped, rolling over to get to her feet and then checking her watch. "Seven-thirty! I still have time. Eat breakfast in ten minutes then rush to school and be there before the bell rings at eight," she planned, grabbing the picked carrots and strawberries baskets. "Then again, I've been out here for ten minutes, are they worried? No, I was here with Yuki…" She felt a hand on her shoulder. It was Yuki, whom already had dressed. Just by the simple gesture she calmed. "We'll have time," he smiled, taking the baskets from her hands. "Hai!" she replied, returning the smile.
Back at the house, Kyo and Shigure had almost finished the meal when Tohru burst in followed by Yuki. "Sumimasen, I took so long! Sumimasen!" she exclaimed bowing. "Tohru-kun, it's no problem, but may I ask what you were doing?" Shigure asked cunningly. At this remark, Kyo turned to her, interested in what she was doing with the 'kuso nezumi.' "O!" she exclaimed, flushing. "I--, I mean, the base, we--" "Honda-san was helping me. I hadn't finished picking, so she helped and then we came here," Yuki said, saving Tohru from her predicament. Tohru looked at Yuki, who in return, smiled warmly back at her.
"Ittekemasu!" three voices rang as they headed towards school. "Itterasshai!" Shigure responded. They were happily on their way to school, talking about random things like martial arts, cooking, or the joyous time they would have in Spring Break.
Yes I know, an awkward way to end, but please review! Thank you! If you have suggestions please tell me!
