Disclaimer - I do not own Fruits Basket. If I did, I assure you, Kana would have been hit by a bus. How dare she break Hatori's heart. . . ?
But either way, a fanfic thing for Hatori.

I saw you today, standing there and chatting with your friend. You were outside the Café, and you looked so happy there.
You're still as beautiful as the last time I saw you. But it doesn't take a doctor to see your condition. If I were as courageous as you once were, I would have walked up an congratulated you. But I'm not.
I wonder, if She hadn't gotten mad,
(Jealous?)
Would you still be standing there chatting with your friend, stomach full and swollen with child? Or would be never have been able?
They say when you find true love, the curse is broken. If She hadn't done what she did, if we had still been together, would you have tested that with me? Would you have broken this curse? Would I have ever been able to hold you close?
And then you walked into the arms of another. Even as my heart ached, even as that veil or sorrow fell over me, I could see how good you looked together.
And then it began to snow, the white flakes falling on your hair like the purest halo. And I walked away, unable to bear the sight. Unable to watch you so in love with another.
Now as I think this, the snow has long since stopped. The sun is out, and even that brings memories to me, memories of what we once were. Thoughts of what we could have been.
Hey, Kana?
When the snow melts, what does it become?
