Note: When any Sohma says Sensei it means Shigure.

And Nii san is Ayame to Yuki. Well nii san means 'big brother' anywho.

"So Sensei didn't make it, after all.." said Haru, "I thought for sure he would come…"

"He said he'll join us once he had enough work out of the way.." Said Yuki, "But why were you so sure?"

" At least we get to see Honda san… in all her swim suit clad glory." Said Haru he was standing up and stretching.

"DON'T TALK ABOUT HER LIKE THAT!" shouted Kyo and Yuki at Haru.

"It's just the normal reaction of any normal young man." Explained Haru, Kyo grabbed him into a headlock and began to noogie him. "Ouch."

"You're hardly a "normal young man"!" said Kyo annoyed at Haru. Yuki just stood there.

"Guys chill out…." Said Rei she unhooked Kyo's headlock and freed Haru.

" Look, Look you four! Tohru;s aamaaazzing!Look at her swim!" shouted Momiji.

"Wow."

"It's true! That is amazing!" said Yuki.

Rei raised her eye brow… "Wow that is amazing!" she said she smiled. Then her cell phone rang. "One minute guys ok?"

She walked a ways away, "Hello?"

"Hey it's me Kana."

"Oh! Heyy!"

" Where are you?"

"I'm at the Sohma summer house."

"Oh… I tried calling your home phone but no one was there."

"Yeah… sorry about that…"

"Well soooo ooo how are you?"

"I'm fine I'm at the beach with Kyo and some of the Sohma kids."

"Sounds like fun are you going in the water?"

"Naw I'm playing life quard."

"Really? Getting some sun?"

"Yeah kinda sorta."

"Really?"

"Yeah. Where are you?"

" I'm at my husband's parent's house."

" Really?"

"Well… Listen I got to go Kyo's in the water with his clothes on and I don't want him to get sick."

"Ok call me later ok?"

Rei hung up the phone and turned to the kids attention. "Hey Kyo? Why are you in the water with your clothes on?" she asked.

"I was forced to that's why." He said he was clearly annoyed .

"I sent invitations to some of the others." Said Momiji. "You know, Kisa, Hiro.."

"Who's Hiro?"

"Hiro is the Ram of the zodiac."

"Um, I invited, Ayame, Ritsu and some others." Said Momiji.

" Even Nii san? Yeah that's about everyone." Said Yuki.

"Ja!" said Momiji.

"I hope they all come!" said Tohru enthusiastically.

" Yeah that would be nice."

"Tomorrow we're going stag beetle hunting tomorrow!" announced Momiji.

"You guys? I think I'll pass for that ok?"

"Awwww but whyyyy? You have to go!" whined Momiji he looked at her with sad eyes.

"Rei san? Are you ok?"

"Eh?"

"Honda san has a point you do look a little depressed… Are you ok?" said Yuki.

"I I'm fine! See? Nothing wrong with me!" said Rei unconvincingly.

"You aren't ok..you look and sound depressed… is something bothering you?" said Kyo.

All of a sudden Rei was the center of attention, "R Really guys I'm fine! I'm fine!"

"If you say so…" they said.

"Listen, I think I will go to bed early ok guys?"

"It's only 9 o clock!"

"Well.. I think the sun got to me that's all." She smiled, "I'll take a bath and go to bed.. so later guys."

Rei sighed as she walked to the bath, What's wrong with me! Argh…she thought as she sat in the bathtub and she looked up, I know Momiji is an understanding kid I mean he knows and understands about Hatori and Kana but I'm worried about some things with Akito…I wonder how one man could be so threatening…I wonder what animal he is? Well, there is horse and rooster.. Maybe he's rooster…Ah well… she thought for a while then got out of the bath. She got dressed into her tank top and girl boxers. Then walked into the living room. They were talking about her;

"Rei is acting weird"

"Ah! You're right! I wonder why!"

"Maybe she misses Hatori."

"I think it has to DO with Hatori dammit I hate when she doesn't tell me what is on her mind." Said Kyo loudly.

"Shhh… she's sleeping."

"Poor Rei san… something bad must have happened to her or something."

"…." Momiji was silent.

Rei smiled, Wow they really care about me. She turned around and walked to her room. "Tch." She laid on her bed. Why am I so outta whack? One sentence completely throws me off…. She felt her eyelids grow heavy and soon she was asleep.

Rei woke up the next morning, she got up and stretched her arms she took off her tank top and girl boxers and put on a pair of black girl dickies black pants and a red wifebeater. She stepped out side and rubbed her eyes. She saw out of the corner of her eye, Kisa and a young brown haired boy, she smiled and walked over to them. "Hello Kisa, who's your friend?"

"Ah! Thi This is Hiro chan." Said Kisa in a small voice. "H Hiro chan? This is Rei san."

"Feh." Was all the boy said.

Rei's eyebrow twitched, "Nice to meet you." Argh what an annoying brat. She thought.

"What ever…"

"You know when you act like that Kisa gets nervous… you're losing points being the brat you are." Said Haru he and Momiji were sitting on the floor.

"G' morning Haru san, Momiji san" Yawned Rei.

" Mornin."

"MORNING!" shouted Momiji.

Yuki looked at her and smiled, "Are you feeling better today Rei san?"

"Yeah I am sorry I was rude for going to bed early.. I just had too much sun."

"That's alright.." said Yuki he smiled at her.

"So aren't you kiddies gonna collect Stag beetles today?" asked Rei.

"AH! Yes YES Yes!" said Tohru.

"Well.. I have to make some phone calls… So why don't I meet you in the woods in a little while?"

"Ah! Yes! Well. I have to get Kisa situated first." Said Tohru, she led Kisa to the girls side of the house. Rei smiled.

"You goin with them Yuki kun?"

"No…I don't know actually maybe.. well we'll see ."

"Kay… talk to you later ok?" Rei left the room and opened her cellphone. She thought for a minute and dialed Hatori's cell phone number.

"Hello?"

"Hello, it's me Rei."

"Oh! Hey."

"Um Hatori… you're coming up to the summer house right?"

"Yes I am why?"

"Well…I um I…."

"Yes? You what?"

"I umm I miss you."

"You do?"

"Yes! I do…." She blushed at saying this.

"Well, I'll be up in a couple of days… so don't worry."

"I'm not worried I just miss being with you. Don't you miss me?"

"Me?"

"Yes you who else?"

"Well…I do miss having you around if that is what you're asking."

"I mean do you love me?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Please! Answer I need to know if you do love me."

"Well.."

"Hatori! DO YOU OR NOT?" she was at the verge of tears.

"I can't answer that right now."

"Why not!"

" Because I'm working."

"FINE!" she hung up the phone. So IT IS true he doesn't love me….. she tried to mask the pain she felt but it hurt more than anything.
