Disclaimer: I still don't own it.
Yay! Two updates in one night when I'm supposed to be away for two weeks! Whoot! It's great not being able to sleep until 2am, it really is. In any case, I actually wrote this one, and its hideously short, but I wanted to let you know that I haven't forgotten about you guys!
You also should probably know just how close I came to making this a Shigure x Kyo pairing. It was REALLY, REALLY, EXTRAORDINARILY close. If I wouldn't have lost half my readers to the pairing, I probably would have. Then again, my other Fruits Basket Story is a Shigure x Kyo one... so I should be grateful and go and write that! Whoot! Anyways, enjoy this One-shot.
I'm back in business baby, yeah!
Shigure's Manuscript
"Kyo!" Shigure called, waving his hand in Kyo's general direction to indicate to actually come. (Hatori had learnt to use that whenever he wanted Shigure's attention when he was little. It appeared that Shigure responded better with hand signals than verbally.)
Kyo had been heading to the bathroom, which was just past Shigure's study, and of course had been stopped. "I'm trying to go to the bathroom, damn mutt!"
"Fine then. Relieve yourself and don't care about my feelings."
"I will." Kyo then marched off in the direction he was going, leaving a very sour faced Shigure behind.
Five minutes later…
"Kyoooo, will you read my manuscript?"
"No."
Five minutes later after later…
"Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease read my manuscript!"
"No!"
Five minutes later after later that is WAY after later…
"How about now?"
"NO!"
"Fine. I'll have to tell Tohru all the content of Kyo's diary. Let's see, '6th of July, At breakfast I saw her…'"
"FINE!" Kyo screamed, stomping in Shigure's general direction, making sure to stamp down on the novelists hand as he entered the study.
While Shigure shook out his hand, he handed Kyo the manuscript with the other. "You've never read my master pieces have you, Kyo?" He asked absentmindedly, popping joints back into place, "They're all based at Teenagers."
"Yeah, yeah, what ever." So, Kyo began to read.
There was once a boy name Kii. Kii was a sad little boy because he had been dealing drugs for a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long time. Poor Kii had even sold his Mother's dentist to get some drugs, even though he knew drugs are bad. It wasn't long before Kii realised that he had a problem. So, Kii went to group therapy. Kii didn't survive because he got beaten senseless by a girl's father, the girl of who he impregnated.
"What in the hell…" Kyo read it over and over again. "Is… this?"
Shigure's manuscript was… stupid. Incredibly stupid. It was hideously short, too.
"This… is the sequel to the 2nd highest novel this year?"
"Yep!" Shigure said happily, "The first was about Kii and a puppy. It went for a whole one hundred words."
"… How do you… what do you…"
Shigure stood, grinning from ear to ear, "Teenagers these days are very gullible, Kyo-kun."
