well...pleeze no flames...I know from personal experience that fire is indeed hot...and so is the wax...constructive critisism is always welcome...

Well...I haven't updated for a while...and there's a good reason...I just haven't thought about it yet...

Wait!I got it!I had a bunch of crap I had 2 do for school!that's it!

But seriously...I had a lot of things to do...I typed up a ten page mystery story for my language arts class...now I have 2 write a business letter...and I keep getting constant headaches...mostly due to math...damnit!why do I have to be in the hardest friggin' class at school?

And now I'm all alone cuz the one person I knew in that class purposefully got herself kicked out...yes...I am talking about you alda...

And...as always supposedly must be said...I do not own fruits basket...If I did own it then I would have put myself into the story to torture every one else...buwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

A (Long) Bus Ride With My Brother

chapter 7

.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;..;.;.;.;.FLASHBACK.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.

Ring...ring...ring...ring...

"Hello?"

"Hey...it's Hatori..."

"Oh! And may I enquire as to the reason of your call?"

"I'm not in the mood for games..."

.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;END FLASHBACK.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.;.

"I'm not in the mood for games...Shigure..."

"Whatever do you mean by that? Come on! Tell me!I may want to use it for an idea on the book I was supposed to have finished last week!"

"Last week?"TT

"Uh-huh!Last week!"

"I really do feel sorry for that woman...but anyways...as much as it kills me to say it...I need your help..."

"What's this? Dear Hatori-kun needs my help? Oh happy days!Sunday, Monday! What a day!" Shigure said prancing around his office. Just out side the door Tohru was stopped with a oO look. Kyo had a OO look. And Yuki just didn't really care about what the dog had said...

"If your going to say that and brag to everyone that I asked for your help...then you can give the phone to someone else..."

"No no Hatori! of course I'll help! What is it that you ask of me?"

"It's about Ayame...he's been moping around my house for the past three weeks...he shows no intention of leaving...and he seems kind of...how should I say this...? Depressed..."

"My dear Aya is depressed! But why? Aya is too cheerful to have become depressed! not even Yuki latest rejections-oh...maybe that's it...what happened when they went to see that psychiatrist?"

"I have no idea...but when I had to pick them up from a rest-stop...I began to wonder if they saw a psychiatrist at all?"

"I don't think so...what do you need me to do?"

"Something...Anything..I don't think I can take another cup of his tea..."

"What if I brought Yuki over...you're a doctor...can't you act as a sort of psychiatrist for them?"

"I don't really do that but I guess it wouldn't hurt...anything to get him out of my house..."

"Alright...I'll drive Yuki over later..."

"Alright Shigure...I'm about to snap...I won't be able to take it much more...He's our friend...but I'm going to end up throwing his tea on him..."

"I understand...but I'm assuming that the sooner I bring Yuki over the better?"

"The sooner you bring the better the chances of Ayame's skin remaining unburnt."

"...Right..." Shigure said holding the phone away from his head ", Yuki? We're going to visit Ha'ri later, okay?"

"...Fine," Yuki called from outside the room still not listening to what was being said. Whereas Kyo was being to curious and was leaning against the door. Unfortunately he didn't hear Shigure get up and head for the door. The door slid open and he found himself face to face with the writer's feet.

"Now, now Kyo...eavesdropping is very impolite...tsk tsk...really!"

"Shuddup! Why did Hatori call you?"

"My, my Kyo...you're very bad at eavesdropping if you couldn't tell..."

"I was dropping no eaves! Now tell me what you were talking about!"

"Do you even know what eavesdropping means?" Yuki said looking up from his book.

"Yes!...no..."

"It means you're listening into other people's conversations. Which is very rude!" Shigure said wagging his finger at Kyo.

"Whatever, now where are you and that kuso nezumi going!"

"sigh If you must know we're going over to Ha'ri's."

"Why would you be going there? And why is Yuki going?"

"He needs to go for a checkup," said Shigure coming up with a quick lie. He thought it best to keep the situation on the hush hush...besides...if they were going to see Ayame would Yuki really want to go?

"Why would I need a checkup?" asked Yuki now paying attention.

"Hatori decided that it would be good to check your lungs. You can never be too careful!"

"When are we going?"

"Ha'ri said that the sooner the better."

"sigh Then let's go..."Yuki said reaching for his coat

With that they left.
