Kat Johnson!
Last time..
He opened the door with a giant grin on his face and stared at the girl, his voice caught in his throat. The others in the room peeked over his shoulder at the girl.
Yuki dropped his rice ball, Haru's jaw flung open and Kyo raised an eyebrow, while Momiji just stood silent.
The girl timidly said "Hello" and covered her blushing face with her hands…
This time..
The girl might have been 15, but she looked 12! They all gaped at those.. Things on her face.
Shigure regained his posture and said, "Hello! Welcome to the Sohma residence!"
Momiji quickly after, running up behind Shigure, peeking over his shoulder and squealed a "Hello!"
Kat was invited in, and Shigure carried her belongings upstairs to the bedroom. She sat at the table with Yuki, Haru, Kyo and Momiji.
Alright, when I say she looked 12, it was only because of the way she dressed. She had on a Pokemon shirt and some cut off pinstripe pants, with small sneakers that were colored all over, and plastic jewelry everywhere. She had short sleepy orange hair and bright green eyes. 'Those things' they were staring at on her face were her piercings. She had 4 of them. Snake bites, a tear drop, and a scrumper.
"Welcome to our house." Yuki said putting on a fake smile. He offered a rice ball to Kat, who took it smiling and nibbled on it.
"Yes, it's a pleasure to have you here." Haru said, not really caring, folding his arms across his chest and blowing his bangs out of his eyes.
"Whatever." Kyo said, resting his head on his hand not looking at the other three. "So this little brat is going to stay here for 2 months?" He asked, casually grabbing a rice ball and popping it in his mouth.
"Oi! Who are you calling a brat! Someone hold me back, dude." Kat said throwing a chopstick at his head.
"ARGH! Outside now!" Kyo said standing up with a raised fist.
Kat just sat there and slapped on an innocent face. "You.. Wouldn't hurt me would you..?" She stifled a giggle while fake pouting.
"Damn brat!" Kyo said before storming off.
Yuki and Haru just sighed and grabbed another rice ball. "Alright! Way to go, Kat!" Momiji squealed and put on a silly grin.
Kat smiled and nodded her head.
"Did those.. Hurt?" Haru asked, indicating to her facial piercings.
"What these?" She pointed to her lip, "Only when he was taking the needle out. That shit stings like a bitch." She scrunched up her nose at the thought.
"Miss Kat!" Yuki said, surprised at her choice of words. "I didn't think ladies used such language!"
"Ladies?" Kat started giggling madly. "If you think I'm a lady then you've got something coming your way."
With Tohru
Tohru looked around as she got off the plane and saw a man who had long blonde hair tied in a ponytail with her name on a piece of cardboard standing in the lobby. She nervously strode over to it, there was a bunch of people crowding around the person with her name.
"Oh, she should be here soon, shouldn't she??" A little girl asked tugging on the man's shirt.
"Soon, yes." The kind of dark looking teenage boy said. He somehow reminded Tohru of Hana-chan's little brother.
"Are you Tohru Honda?" The little girl asked running over to Tohru and tugging at the hem of her skirt.
"Yes!" Tohru said smiling brightly and waving to everyone.
"Welcome to the states. I hope it seems better to visitors than those who actually live here." The dark looking teenage said.
"Why, yes! It's wonderful!" Tohru said tilting her head slightly with a big smile. She spoke it in perfect English.
"Alright, let's collect your things and head home, shall we!" The man with the blonde hair said. "By the way, I'm Zack Johnson, the father of Kat, who's over in Japan visiting your family. This is Kyle," he said pointing to the dark looking teenager, "This is Michelle.." to the little girl, "And Courtney, who is being VERY rude." He said pointing to a girl with blonde and green hair talking on her cell phone.
They headed to the luggage compartment and Tohru saw her bags go by. "Oh! My bags!" She rushed towards them and picked them up. Zack offered to carry the biggest, while slapping Kyle upside the head, so he'd carry the other, smaller one. She let them carry her bags while they walked to her car. "Thank you so much for letting me come live with you! I hope we all get along great!"
Kyle coughed and Courtney smacked on her gum. The little girl smiled big and squealed, running around with her arms out, like she was an airplane. "How was the plane ride?! Was it fun?!" Michelle asked.
Tohru patted her head, "Yes. It was pleasant. Everyone on the plane was very nice. I even got peanuts!" She held up a little bag of peanuts and gave them to Michelle, who had her arms reached out to grab them.
They walked through the big garage and came upon a big red SUV. Zack and Kyle loaded the bags in the back of it, while Courtney got in the passengers side. Tohru sat in the middle of Kyle and Michelle in the back.
"So.. What are things like over in Japan?" Kyle said, looking at the window, as the big buildings started disappearing, and trees and small homes passed by.
"Oh! They're great! My family is really nice, I'm sure they'll take great care of Miss Kat!" Tohru squealed, still not believing she was in America. Kyle looked at her and half-smiled.
Courtney had just got off the phone, and looked back at Tohru, checking her out. "Hmm.. Tohru, was it? Do you mind if we play a little game of dress-up when we get to our house?" She smacked her gum loudly at the end of the sentence.
"Um.." Tohru said looking at her hands.
"Great!" Courtney said, then her cell phone rung again and she started chatting away on it.
"You shouldn't let her dress you up. Her clothes aren't the best kind." Kyle said, focusing back on the scenery passing by.
"Well I do want to get along with everyone.." Tohru said, patting Michelle's head as the child slept on her.
"If you say so.."
Nobody said a word for the rest of the way.
