I know I haven't updated this story in... forever. But better late then never! I am embarrassed to say that I actually had to go back and read the last three chapters to remember what I wrote. Oh my gosh! I did not realize what a cliff hanger that last chapter was! I'm the one that wrote it and I'm like "Come on, Stupid! We need to find out what happens next!" I would like to dedicate this chapter to Polarbear2000. If not for her (assuming your a girl. Honest mistake if your not.) I probably would never had updated ever again. Even with the excruciatingly long time laps between Chapter 13 and Chapter 14, she still found my story and reviewed. I bow down to her for that. Ok! Let's get on with the chapter!

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Fruits Basket.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Tohru looked up at Kyo with wide shocked eyes. Her heart was racing and she smiled a small shy smile. "We'd better be getting home." she said to him. "It's getting late."

"Oh my God." seemed to be the biggest thing running through Kyo's mind. "I just kissed Tohru. What was I thinking! What was I THINKING!"

He found that as they walked somehow their hands seemed to become laced in each other. Kyo's heart was pounding like mad. Before Kyo knew it, they had arrived at home. They stood on the porch facing each other, looking into the others eyes. Neither could will themselves to get any closer to the other. Time passed, how much time it was unable to tell. Kyo eventually let his hand slip from Tohru's grasp and he diverted his eyes.

"I guess I'll go to bed then." Kyo admitted his excuse.

Tohru nodded, "Yeah. I guess tomorrow if you want, we could juggle a bit?" she asked with high hopes.

"Sounds great." Kyo said as he somewhat quickly walked into the house, up the stairs into his room.

As soon as Tohru heard Kyo's door close she couldn't help but squeal and jump up and down. Which was especially funny because Kyo was doing a very similar action also.

Tohru was not aware that someone was coming. Two people to be correct. They walked up just in time to see Tohru jumping around in circles with her hands moving like those of a baby birds trying to fly with the biggest smile on her face.

She jumped around in time to see the two figures approaching the house. Her expression of giddy delight was instantly replaced with confusion and worry.

"Ayame-san! Ritsu-san!" she ran to the two men, "What are you two doing here? Are the others here as well?"

Ayame put his hands on her shoulders, "We thought we'd come and visit! Aren't you surprised?"

Tohru was still confused, "I'm shocked! Why'd you come to visit? I thought that you were in America with everyone else."

"Ritsu and I didn't want to be there anymore so we decided to come home. Well, not home exactly. I have a favor to ask you." Ayame told her.

"Of course Ayame-san, what is it?" Tohru asked.

"I was wondering if Ritsu and I could stay here until the others came back from America." he asked.

Tohru was now even more confused than she was before, "O--of course Ayame-san. You can sleep in Kyo's room and Ritsu-san chan sleep in my room. I'll sleep in Shigure's room." Tohru could tell that if Ayame could hug her he would have.

She ushered the two members of the Zodiac inside. "Please, sit down and I'll make you some tea." Ritsu and Ayame sat at the table and Tohru soon came out with hot tea and onigiri.

They all sipped their tea in silence for a moment. Very quietly and timidly Ritsu asked, "Is Kyo here, Honda-san?"

"Yes, I think he had just gone to bed when you two had arrived." she told them, blushing and smiling to herself at the memory of that evening.

They finished off the onigiri and tea will little more conversation. "I think your beds are all prepared if either of you want to sleep. Or the bathroom is free if you guys want shower or anything." Tohru offered.

"I think I'll take a shower if you two don't mind." Ritsu said as he rose from the table.

"Go ahead Ritsu." Ayame told him. Ritsu left. Tohru poured herself the last of the tea and started stacking dished to be washed.

Ayame looked troubled. "Do the others know your here?" Tohru asked him before she went into the kitchen.

The snake closed his eyes and quickly shook his head back and forth in quick movements. "What does Akito-san think?" Tohru asked again.

"I'm not sure." Ayame admitted.

"Why are you here?" she finally asked.

Ayame shrugged his shoulders, "I guess I just got fed-up. No one ever seemed to take me seriously."

"So you took Ritsu on a plane back to Japan?" she asked.

"Oh... No! I wouldn't just force him into coming. We did a little sight-seeing on our own. Talked a little and we both decided that we wanted to go home. So we got on a plane and here we are." he explained to Tohru.

"That seems very spontaneous of you two. Especially Ritsu." she said with a slightly skeptical look. All Ayame could do is shrug his shoulders.

Tohru put the dishes in the sink to be washed the next day. It was getting late and she was getting sleepy. "I believe you know where your room is. It you do I think I will go to bed now. Good night Ayame-san." she said with a bow. He gave her a slight bow in return and watched her go to Shigure's room, since she sacrificed hers' to Ritsu.

Tohru almost regretted giving up her room to Ritsu. Shigure's room wasn't a huge mess, but it was slightly piggish. She looked over at the digital clock on his desk. It read 2:30 PM, which was especially strange considering it was only around 11:00 PM. Tohru shook her head, Shigure obviously had no concept of time.

His bed was a mess. Tohru had to hunt around the room until she could find the blanket. The pillow was practically falling out of it's pillow case. The mattress cover was slipping off the mattress. It took her ten minutes (according to the messed up clock) to fix up the bed and it's surroundings so that everything was suitable for sleeping. She fell asleep before her head hit the pillow.

She had one of the oddest dreams she could recall that night. She was at Kazuma's dojo and was told to instruct Ayame and Ritsu how to dance. But every time they tried they would turn into their Zodiac animal. She was getting frustrated until Kyo rode into the room on a unicycle and juggling numerous brightly colored balls. Ritsu turned into a monkey and hopped up on Kyo's shoulder and Kyo rode off. Tohru was so worried because it was the most important thing in the world to teach Aaya and Ritsu how to dance! How could she do that if Ritsu was off monkeying around. Ayame grabbed Tohru and started dancing off to find Kyo and Ritsu. Suddenly, Kyo's unicycle was headed straight for the dancing couple. No Kyo! Ahhhh!

Tohru woke with a start. "Where am I!" She started looking around franticly until she remembered that she had slept in Shigure's room that night. The sun was just peeking through the window when she woke. She looked over at the clock " 12:17 AM" it read. Tohru rolled her eyes and forced herself out of bed.

She started to make pancakes for breakfast when Kyo trudged into the kitchen and poured himself a glass of milk. Kyo looked to his watch on his right wrist and then to Tohru who looked back at him with a sleepy gaze. He pulled her into a kind embrace. She sighed a please sigh and returned the hug. They stood that way for a good 15 seconds. Once the 15 seconds was up an orange puff of smoke did not fill the room. Instead, Ayame ran into the room and quickly observed the situation. Ayame couldn't help but gasp and his eyes grew as wide as Tohru had ever seen them.

Kyo turned his head towards the unexpected person who had just barged into the room. As soon as it registered in Kyo's mind who was watching them, he pulled his arms off of Tohru like lightning.

A million things were running through Ayame's mind but the loudest of them all was most definitely "Kyo broke the curse!"

A million things were also running through Kyo's mind and the loudest of his were most definitely, "I'm going to die! He knows I broke the curse!"

If anyone heard the news about Kyo, he knew he would be done for. The only question now was, Could Aaya keep a secret?

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

So this is where I'm going to end this chapter. I hope you all liked it. Please read and review. The more reviews I get and the more chance you guys will have of ever getting a Chapter 15.

I am very proud to say that, every chapter is spell-checked! It took a long time, but there should be very little spelling errors now. So I don't see any reason why I should get reviews telling me that everything is spelled wrong. Lol. Hope you enjoyed the spell-checked version of the story! (huge smile)

This is WHPIAR... signing off.
