Chapter 4- Something About You
There's something about you,
That seems to haunt my mind,
Your face is always in my dreams, my nightmares,
And I can never get it to go away…
"Haru let the girl go please." Yuki said in a calm voice when they arrived outside the house. Makiana's shirt was being held in the back by Haru as she tried to run.
"Oh alright." Haru smirked as he let go. Makiana ran around in a circle screaming and waving her hands.
"Makiana, you're free…" Kiko said laughing as Makiana fell over. Yuki smiled and turned to Haru, who was now back to White Haru.
"Better now?" Kiko asked Haru while helping Makiana get up from her fallen position.
"Yeah, something just triggered." Haru responded with an emotional look. The four stood in the sun not speaking for a while, just enjoying the outdoor weather.
"Where's Yoyo and Tohru?" Kiko asked suddenly, causing the silence to break. Yuki shrugged, leaning back in the tall grass.
"I want sugar candy!" Makiana screamed suddenly. Haru looked over confused while Kiko started laughing hysterically.
"What's so funny?" Yuki asked confused.
"Well you see there is a place in America called Epcot that has mini countries. It's apart of the fabulous Disney World! Makiana and I go there all the time with Gaea and Forte to get these sugar candies." Kiko explained simply, the laughter in her now dying.
"Gaea? Forte?" Haru asked, his brow furrowed in the middle.
"The rabbit and the tiger." Makiana said, "Both are near our age….Forte's a guy and Gaea is a girl though."
"Well do you want to go look for these candies Miss Makiana?" Yuki asked standing up. She nodded furiously before getting up and dragging Kiko with her. Haru laughed, getting his jacket on and following Yuki. They all walked through the town, admiring all the street vendors.
"Oh! Look at how pretty this is Makiana!" Kiko said, her eyes sparkling at a purple bracelet made from amethyst. Haru probed Yuki in the ribs and wiggled his eyebrows. Yuki glared back and watched as Makiana pulled Kiko into the small sweets store down the street. Haru followed when Makiana screamed for him.
"Excuse me miss? May I buy this bracelet?" Yuki asked picking up the purple bracelet. The old lady looked up and smiled wide.
"Is it for that pretty girl with the blonde hair? Your girlfriend?"
"Oh…well…." Yuki stuttered and blushed bright red.
"Here, take it. I can tell it's for a special girl." The lady said winking.
"I couldn't!" Yuki replied, stunned by the reaction of the lady.
"Go, they probably wonder where you are." She said waving her hand. Yuki nodded, while slipping the bracelet in his pocket, before going to the candy store.
"KI! WHERE WERE YOU?" Kiko screamed running up. Her blonde hair whipped behind her as she rushed up to him.
"Oh just admiring things outside, what did you guys find?" Yuki responded grinning.
"LOOK! IT'S PINK!" Kiko said jumping up and down. Yuki nodded while laughing as he leaned against the wall. Haru looked disgruntled as Makiana forced him to try a piece of licorice.
"I don't want licorice!"
"EAT IT!"
"NO!"
"YES! OR I'LL DO SOMETHING DRASTIC!"
"BRING IT COW!"
"YOU'RE A COW TOO!"
"AND?"
"EAT IT NOW! IT'S GOOD!"
"NEVER!" Haru screamed just as Makiana stuffed the black licorice in his mouth. He sat there, blank expression as he chewed
"And?" Makiana asked hopeful. Haru nodded, giving a small smile.
"YUKI WAKE UP!" Kiko yelled bringing him back from his zoned out look towards the other two's fight.
"Yes Ko?" Yuki responded, quickly looking up from his 'sleep'.
"Should I get the blue cotton candy or the purple?" Kiko said drastically as if it was a life decision.
"Blue, tastes way better." Yuki replied smiling wide. Kiko nodded and went to buy her sweets. He loved watching her walk, the way her hair swayed, and how she would swing her hips.
"Come on dorks." Kiko called to the cows. They followed her and then Yuki did. They walked down through town until they got back to the house. Haru and Makiana went to find Tohru and Kyo, leaving Yuki and Kiko.
"Come on." Yuki said taking her hand and leading her through the forest, "It's my fort…or well garden. Tohru helps me with it."
"It's beautiful Ki." Kiko commented in awe.
"I got this for you today." Yuki said taking the small bracelet out of his pocket.
"Is that the bracelet I saw earlier today!" Kiko squeaked. Yuki laughed and handed it to her.
"The old lady said it was for someone special." Yuki replied while looking at the birds in a tree near him.
"You shouldn't of gotten it…" Kiko said looking right at him. He turned to her and smiled a little.
"Yes I should of." Yuki stated, giving a little laugh at the end, "Come on its getting dark. Tohru probably has dinner." The two walked back in complete silence, thoughts of each other stuck in their minds. Dinner was eventful as usual, Kyo spilled soup all over Yuki causing a fight. Haru and Makiana headed back to the main Sohma house before dinner, leaving Kiko alone at the infamous house. She dismissed herself from the table to go lay down. Yuki was running through her mind, how could a guy she just met affect her this much? He was cursed just like her…he knew….he knew…
