Chapter 4 - Fruits basket, not so upset
It was a very somber and gray filled day, it has been about 6 months since Kyo was transformed into his true form by his master/father figure, Kazuma. But, surprisingly enough it was only the second time it had rained since then. Tohru found herself next to Kyo in the morning, like she always did and knew he would be sleeping in late today, 'it's a good thing it's saturday!' she thought. She knew there was no point in wasting time so she went downstairs only to find everyone else up already.
"Oh, hello Shigure, Yuki.." and she found a few other people in their house "And hello Hatori, Akito." Tohru and Akito had become friends since their meeting after the little incident, I think you all know what I mean, and she also came to know that Akito was actually a girl.
"Hello, Tohru." They all said at once.
"There is something we need to talk to you about." Hatori said soberly "We all do."
"Um, yes?" Tohru said, intrigued
"Well, It's about the curse." Akito said
'Oh no! I did something wrong! I did something wrong when I told Kyo how I felt!' Tohru thought suddenly riled up "Y-yes?"
"It's not bad." Shigure reassured, seeing that Tohru was suddenly nervous
"Indeed, it's very good actually." Hatori said trying to calm Tohru down. "Akito, why don't you tell her?"
"Alright then. Miss Honda, you might want to take a seat, it may be a bit shocking."
"O-Okay..." Tohru said as she took a seat in between Yuki and Shigure who both took her nervous hands in theirs.
"What we need to tell you is," Akito proceeded "The curse...Has been broken."
"WHAT?!" Tohru exclaimed
"Yes, it's true the curse is broken and everyone is normal."
"But that means that you would have to be dying...wouldn't it?" Tohru suddenly becoming more worried for Akito than her own nervousness
"No, actually. The reason they're normal is because of you." Akito stated
"But how is that? How is that possible?" Tohru asked, confused
"When you told Kyo how you felt, he let go of all his past feelings. All his grudges and everything that clouded and conflicted his heart. Anything anyone told him, including myself, that no one would love him just left his mind completely. It's almost as if no one had ever said that to him. And in turn, it lifted the curse. Thank you Tohru, Thank you!" Akito said, obviously saying that for everyone that had been cursed.
"Well, it's not just me! Someone needs to tell Kyo!" Tohru said excited
"Well you of course!" Shigure said. Tohru got up to leave and everyone stood up with her and hugged her, practically tackling her. She was so surprised not to see them tranform that she practically pushed them to the ground to get to Kyo, and they understood, she finally got to hug the man of her dreams it was more magical sounding than marriage and a big white wedding at this point in time.
"Kyo! You have to get up! Kyo!" Tohru said not yet inside her room
"What? What the hell do you want?" Kyo asked a little irritated at being woken up, even if it was Tohru
"Kyo! It's amazing news! Amazing news Akito told us!" Tohru said
"Well come on then tell me woman!" Kyo exclaimed half joking
"The curse! It's about the curse!" Tohru said still beaming from the news
"Yeah, what about it?" Kyo asked his intrigue finally peaked
"IT'S GONE KYO! THE CURSE IS GONE! We broke it. Together."
"Oh! That's great news!" Kyo said getting up from bed and taking Tohru in his arms for the first time and felt the joy and love in his heart welling up because he wasn't transformed. It was probably one of the happiest moments...so far.
A/N: Yaaaaaay! happiness! Anyways, no more commentaries, too tedious. so please reviews. thanks!
