Chapter 6: An Apple a Day

Hatori sighed as he pulled into Shigure's drive way. He had hoped that this would be a semi-peacful day. After Shigure had called telling him this morning saying that he was coming over and Yuki calling him not 10 minutes ago, his dreams peace were flushed down the toilet.

"I hope I can patch Tohru's sister up quickly..." Hatori muttered as he parked the car then walked to the entrance of the house. He rang the door bell and only had to wait a few seconds before Tohru answered the door.

"Hello Honda-kun." Hatori greeted Tohru calmly. "Where is you sister?"

"Hi Hatori-san! Thank you helping my sister! Would you like to stay for dinner?" Tohru replied brightly, bowing once. "Selene-chan is in my room resting, I'll show you where it is."

"Thank you Honda-kun, I will stay for dinner." Hatori said politely, following Tohru to her room.

"That's wonderful!" Tohru said happily as she led Hatori down the hall and up the stairs. "Ummm...Hatori-san? I think I should tell you that Selene-chan doesn't like doctors very much."

"That's fine, I've dealt with people like that before. Thank you for the warning though." Hatori said and sighed inwardly, this day was not going to get any more peacful.

They reached Tohru's room and Hatori braced himself to deal with a kicking and screaming girl. When Tohru opened the door he was slightly surprised, Selene was not the average doctor hater. She didn't even seem as if she hated doctors.

Selene was sitting on the bed with an ice pack on the side of her face and she looked slightly sullen. Faith and Serenity sat on either side of her and looked ready to hold her down if she tried to escape or to keep her from attacking him.

Hatori stepped into the room and was immediately pinned down by Selene's icy glare like a bug is pinned to piece of paper. It seemed as if the temperature in the room and dropped 20 degrees and he felt a shiver make its way down his spine.

When it appeared that Selene would not stop glaring at him, Hatori took a few more steps into the room until he was only a few feet from the bed. Serenity and Faith poked Selene in the side simultaneously, without much subtley. At least this caused her to turn her glare away from him and aim it at her sisters instead.

"Hello, my name is Hatori Sohma. I am here to look at Selene-san's wound." Hatori stated clearly, regaining his cool composture. He stuck his hand out in front of Selene so he could shake hands with her, but she just stared at it. After a few seconds, Faith grabbed it instead and started shaking his hand vigorously.

"Hi! My name is Faith! Nice to meetcha!" Faith said enthusiastically while shaking Hatori's arm up and down continuously. When she let go he was almost unbalanced and was close to stumbling when Serenity grabbed his hand to shake as well.

"Hello Hatori-san! My name is Serenity!" Serenity said happily as she shook Hatori's hand, although not with as much heartiness as Faith.

"Now that you are all introduced, I think I will go downstairs to start on dinner." Tohru said happily. "Call me if you need anything."


Tohru closed the door gently and started down the stairs. All four of them were silent and listened as Tohru descenced the stairs, with an occasional 'squeak' as she stepped on a stair in need of oil. After her footsteps faded away, there was a slight awkward moment which was broken by Faith.

"When are you gonna fix Selene, huh Hatori-san?" Faith said as she slightly bounced on the bed.

"I'll start right away. If you could remove the ice pack for a moment Selene-san?" Hatori said calmly. Selene begrudgingly lowered the ice, revealing a long cut on the side of her face from her temple to to her jaw.

"Unfortunately, we're going to have to stitch it up." Hatori said cooly. "How did you get cut?"

"Someone stabbed me with a pair of pliers." Selene said emotionlessly.

Hatori raised an incredulous eyebrow but chose not to say anything more about it. He studied the cut and decided that he was going to have to use 10 stitches to patch it up. After contemplating the best way to stitch it up, he set his medical bag on the desk and opened it. Hatori took out an inch long curved needle, some thread, and tweezers.

Selene was already feeling antsy at the prospect of being stitched up (although she didn't show it), but when Hatori took out the needle, she freaked out.

"Stay away." Selene said coldly, jumping up and pointing a small dagger at Hatori that had mysteriously appeared out of nowhere.

"SELENE!" Faith and Serenity yelled simultaneously. "PUT THAT DAGGER DOWN RIGHT NOW!" Faith tried to pull Selene back on the bed while Serenity attempted to and failed to pry the dagger out of Selene's icy grip.

Meanwhile, Hatori was still standing by the desk, slightly surprised although he tried not to show it. He watched as Faith finally managed to push Selene back and as Serenity wrenched the dagger away.

"That was amusing, but it won't get you out of having stitches." Hatori said calmly, or as calmly as one can talk after being threatened with a knife. He grabbed his supplies and approached the bed cautiously. Serenity and Faith had Selene pinned to bed, although she wasn't struggling.

"Hn...I thought an apple a day kept the doctor away..." Selene muttered, glaring murderously at the approaching Hatori. "I guess I need to eat more apples..."

Serenity and Faith started giggling, which was what Selene intended to make them do. She slipped out of their loosened grip, but unfortunately wasn't watching where she was going and ran into Hatori.

Selene struggled and tried to knee him in the groin, however unluckily, Hatori was ready for her and jabbed a syringe into her arm. Serenity and Faith froze on the spot, inches away from grabbing Selene.

"What the hell did you do to her?" Serenity yelled.

"It just a sedative to help her calm down. It'll wear off in an hour. Don't worry, it's a light dose." Hatori replied nonchalantly.

"Why!" Faith asked him loudly.

"Because," stated Hatori patiently, "if I don't, she'll probably kill me when I start sewing."

Hatori dragged Selene's now limpish form back to the bed and propped her against the headboard, dispite her feeble attempts to puch him. He took the items needed for the procedure out of his pocket and got to work. After about 45 minutes, he cut the thread and proclaimed that he was done.


At that moment, Tohru conveniently popped in to announce that dinner was ready.

"OoOoOo!DINNER!YAY!" Faith and Serenity shouted energetically and bounded off, forgetting that Selene was still inabilitated.

"Faith, Selene!" Selene mumbled weakly. "I can't walk! Come back here and carry me!"

Hatori watched amusedly as Selene tried desperately to get her sisters to come back, but to no avail.

"Need some help?" Hatori asked cooly, innerly laughing at the priceless look on Selene's face.

"No thank you." Selene replied, equally cool. "I can make it downstairs myself."

Selene attempted to push herself off the bed and onto her feet and would have fallen face first into a chair if Hatori hadn't caught her arm. Instead of looking gratified, Selene glared at him venomously and yanked her arm away, successfully falling into the chair.

"I will...ummm...WHEEL myself out! Yea...that's what I'm gonna do!" Selene said triumphantly.

"And you wil fall down the stairs and need more stitches." Hatori said smirking in response. Hatori picked up Selene bridal style, being careful to hold her away from his body. They almost made it successfully down the stairs, but on the last one, Hatori stumbled a bit and Selene clutched his neck.


I don't think I portrayed Hatori well...Sorry I haven't updated in a while...I would have posted this ch yesterday or the day before but I was too busy reading harry potter 6...what did you think of hbp? Don't forget to R&R :)
