The Other Two

Chapter 5

I don't own Oruan or Fruits Basket! _

Regular POV

"The beach?" Haruhi asked.

"Yes Haruhi, you said you wanted to go to a real beach. And here's the best part we brought swim suits for you to choose from. And we've picked out the perfect one," the twins said in unison.

"Not that one! I think this one would be better for Haru-chan!" Honey said.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. You don't understand Honey-sempai. This swimsuit hides the fact of her lacking physique," they said pointing to the swimsuit they picked out.

"You better stop sexually harasing my little girl!" Tamaki said coming over.

"That means we're not going?" the twins asked.

"Who said we aren't going?" Tamaki said.

"Can Usa-chan come too?" Honey asked.

"I see no problem in that," Kyoya said.

Shi sighed from over in the corner where she was standing with Satoshi. "Are we going to have to go too?"

"Of course. Satoshi is a host after all and I don't think you would let him go off on a trip by himself," Kyoya said and his glasses sort of glinted.

"What if we can't go?" Shi asked.

"You would have to have a good reason not to go," Kyoya said. "A really, really good reason."

Shi looked down at Satoshi's face and he looked at her with eager eyes. Shi sighed again and took her phone out of her bag. "Fine," she said and walked to the door. "Excuse me for a minuet," she went outside then room and called Hatori.

"What is she doing?" Hikaru asked Satoshi.

"Making some calls, pulling some strings," Satoshi shruged.

"Is there really that tight of leash on you?" Kaoru asked.

"Yup."

"Why?" all the hosts, except Mori, said.

"Not tellin'," Satoshi said and turned his attention to the window while all the hosts looked questioningly at eachother.

A few minuets Shi came back in and put her phone in her school bag.

"Can you go?" Haruhi asked.

"Yup, we got the okay to go," Shi said and Satoshi smiled.


"So why didn't we go to an actual beach like the Caribbean?" the twins asked.

"Do you really think commoners like Haruhi, Shi, or Satoshi would have a passport?" Kyoya asked.

"I think it's beautiful!" Honey said.


Shi's POV

I leaned back in the chair she was sitting in and sighed. I was wearing a swimsuit but have no intention of getting in the watter. Everyone was off doing their thing and it felt nice to be alone for a few minutes. Haruhi, Honey, and Mori were collecting shell-fish, Tamaki was flirting, Kyoya was managing Tamaki's time with the girls, Hikaru and Koaru were playing with some girls and Satoshi was with some girls in the water. I closed my eyes and stretched my legs and arms. The sun felt nice.

"Shi, do you want to play?" Kyoya asked.

"No thanks, I'm good!" I called back.

"Do you even know what we are playing?" Hikaru asked.

"Nope~" I said and tuned them out.


Normal POV (sorry for the random POV change)

"Pst. Hey Kaoru. You wanna make Shi pissed?" Hikaru whispered to Kaoru bored with the contest.

"By doing what?" Koaru asked.

"By throwing her in the water," Hikaru replied.

"What are you two up to now?" Satoshi asked coming over.

"We are going to throw your sister into the water," Hikaru said smirking.

"Uh, one how would you do that without making her transform, and two, I wouldn't advise you to do that," Satoshi said.

"One, if we pick her up by her arms and legs that's not hugging her. Two, why wouldn't it besides her normal madness?" Hikaru asked.

Doesn't answer for a second but replies with, "I've been forbidden to speak of it" He walked away decided to get far enough away from what's about to happen.

"Come on, let's go," Hikaru said and they both got sly smiles on their faces and they walked towards Shi. Hikaru grabbed her wrists and Kaoru grabbed her ankles and they lifted her up.

"Hey! What the hell are you doing? Put me down!" Shi screamed and they started walking towards the water. She thrashed around but they somehow managed to hold on to her. Hikaru was laughing and Kaoru was smiling and everyone was watching.

"Put me down! Please! PUT ME DOWN!" she was screaming at the top of her lungs and was on the verge of tears. Hikaru and Koaru didn't notice and threw her into the water and then ran back to shore. Shi splashed around and wasn't getting out of the water.

"Um, hey, Hikaru," Kaoru said finally realizing something is wrong. "I don't think she is okay."

"She can't swim! Help her!" Satoshi said pushing Kaoru towards the water. Kaoru ran into the water and noticed right where they threw her was a very deep drop off but was able to grab her wrists and pulled her out of the water making sure she didn't transform. He held on to her until she was mid calf deep in water.

Once he let go of her wrists she picked up a handful of sand and stormed over to Hikaru and threw it at him and then stormed away from the group and off behind a tree out of everyone's sight.

"Excuse us ladies but we need to have a host council really quickly," Kyoya said and all the hosts gathered around in a circle far enough from the girls where they couldn't hear them.

"Satoshi why didn't you say she couldn't swim?" Hikaru hissed.

"You didn't say you were going to drop her off a drop off! I thought you were going to toss her in no more than thigh deep water!" Satoshi replied.

"Why can't Shi swim?" Tamaki asked.

"She never learned how to."

"Why not?" Haruhi asked.

Satoshi sighed. "Okay, I swore not to tell anyone but you will probably find out soon any way, but Shi is deathly afraid of water over one foot deep. Pools, ponds, lakes, oceans."

"Why?" the twins asked together.

"Um…..I also promised not to tell anyone this…..so you can't tell anyone got it, not even her that I told you!" He said. "When we were younger our…..father was drunk and her…..tried to…kill Shi by drowning her," he said getting quieter with each word.

"That's horrible!" Tamaki said and everyone else remained silent.

"Okay, everyone back to your guests and game," Kyoya said.

"What game?" Haruhi asked.

"No game~," the twins said and ran off.

A while later Shi came back out and sat down in the chair she was sitting in before and acted like nothing happened.


"Hey Haruhi, look up here!" one girl said standing on a cliff with two other girls and Satoshi.

"Be careful up there! It's dangerous!" Haruhi yelled from bellow.

"We'll be careful," another girl called.

"The breeze feels so good," the last girl said.

"Hey, man there are chicks up here," a new voice said. The girls and Satoshi whipped around and saw two guys who were walking up the slope to the cliff. "You wanna hang out with some locals?"

"No thanks, just leave us alone," the first girl said.

"Aw come on, we just wanna show you how to have fun," the first guy said.

Satoshi stepped between the guys and the girls. "They said to leave them alone."

"Get away, shrimp!" he said and pushed him out of the way and Satoshi hit the ground hard.

"They said to leave them alone!" Haruhi said showing up and throwing shell-fish on the two guys.

"You little runt!" the first guy said and grabbed Haruhi by the shirt. The fist girl went running to Tamaki.

"Tamaki!" she said running up to him who was running after Hikaru and Kaoru with a bucket and it also grabbed Shi's attention. "It's Haruhi and Satoshi!" she said and pointed to the cliff. Without hesitation Shi got up and ran to the cliff fallowed by Tamaki and the twins.
