DISCLAIMER- I DONT OWN FRUITS BASKET!

I thought i'd write a more serious one shot and i think this is my shortest one...

Thought i needed to focus more on the other members cause i like em too. Maybe not Naohito so much but he's still likeable. Kinda like a more mellow Kyo. And Kimi is just adorable.

SO ANYWAY LET THE STORY BEGIN!


Yuki, Kakeru, Naohito, and Kimi had walked into the student council room "did you guys hear something?" Naohito asked. Kimi leaned forward "Kimi hears someone crying..." Kakeru panicked and pushes open the door.

All four were met by one of Machi's freak out scenes (as Naohito so fondly called them).

"Machi are you ok?" Kakeru ran over to her and tentively reached out an arm to touch her shoulder, she yanked away as though he was going to hit her.

"I'm sorry" her voice was soft and she looked down at her feet.

There was an awkward silence before a voice rang through the room.

"Machi and I will get some cleaning supplies and you three can start picking stuff up."

Yuki led Machi out of the class room without a word leaving behind two very confused class mates.

After they closed the door Naohito frowned "why should we clean up!" he muttered "Machi's the one that made this mess!"

He looked at his class mates for support.

Kakeru just shrugged and started putting fallen papers in a pile.

Kimi watched him silently for a moment before she started to help.

Naohito glared at them "you guys! Machi should be doing this!" He placed his hands on his hip and deepened his scowl "she always makes a huge mess and expects us to clean it up!"

Kakeru lifted his head and glared at him "shut up shortie and help already."

"Don't call me short you idiot! You know it's true! I don't get why everyone just pretends Machi didn't do anything!"

"She apologized already so just shut up." Naohito walked closer to Kakeru "she always apologizes, she just never really means it!"

Kakeru stood up slowly and looked at him "she meant it this time so drop it alright!"

"What if I don't!"

Kakeru took a step towards him.

They glared at each other.

"Hey you guys cut it out, your scaring Kimi!" She pouted and looked at her two friends.

Naohito turned his gaze on her "don't you agree that Machi always says sorry but ends up doing whatever she did again anyway!"

"Not uh! Don't you get Kimi involved in this!" She crossed her arms and turned around in a huff.

Naohito threw up his hands in exasperation "this whole council if full of idiots!"

"Hey!" Kimi and Kakeru yelled at him simultaneously.

He took a step back in surprise when they both stared angrily at him.

"Yuki isn't an idiot!"

Naohito blinked in confusion than glared back at them "come on you don't think that Yuki is just a little bit strange!"

"Of course he's strange! Yuki's the weirdest person I've ever met!"

Kakeru's eyes bugged out as Kimi's fist flew into his stomach "don't make fun of Yun-yun!" she yelled at him. Kakeru curled up on the floor whimpering "I meant that in a nice way."

Naohito watched in amusement until he realized that Kimi was looking at him now.

"Uh…" he swallowed nervously and took a step back.

Kimi just rolled her eyes and looked around questioningly "did you guys notice that it's taking Yuki and Machi a very long time to get cleaning supplies?"

Naohito frowned and was about to tell her not to change the subject when he suddenly realized something "doesn't this classroom have a closet full of cleaning supplies?"

Kimi placed a finger thoughtfully on her chin "Kimi remembers now. Didn't Yun-yun get locked in it once?" They looked at each other and than looked down at Kakeru…

or where Kakeru would be if he hadn't gotten up.

Naohito and Kimi ran to the class room door which had been thrown wide open.

Kakeru had already stormed half way down the halls yelling "I'M GONNA KICK YOUR ASS YUKI!"

(sweat drop) Naohito looked at Kimi "you feel like we missed something here?"

Kimi shrugged "lets just clean up." Naohito opened his mouth to argue again before sighing "what ever" he muttered.

She smiled "Kimi will clean up the shelfs and Naohito can pick up everything else!" She practically skipped back into the class room and Naohito followed her in a less cheerful manner thinking to himself 'I take to much crap from my friends...'
